Chapter 140 New Weapon

Vincent had previously ordered Rem to visit Pascal, the Magic Craftsman or blacksmith in the small town they visited before.

It wasn't just to check his progress but to give him a decent Beast Core to enhance the mithril sword he was trying to make as the man previously requested.

During that time, Vincent didn't have the time to search for decent Beast Core as the revolutionary army arrived at an inconvenient time.

Nevertheless, after Vincent managed to calm himself, he ordered Rem to purchase an expensive Beast Core and bring it to Master Pascal.

'I wonder what attributes I can get from mithril combined with a beast core…' Vincent excitedly thought as he removed the cloth covering the sword and felt the smooth scabbard with intricate patterns on it. Although he couldn't see the sword, he knows that it is beautifully done.

As he grasp the sword handle, he felt the refreshing aura being emitted by the sword.

"Hmmm… Is this effect related to the Beast Core? Rem, what Beast Core did you give to Master Pascal?"

Vincent asked. He didn't draw the sword yet and only caressed it for now to confirm its weight and length.

"Oh~ I forgot to mention. I bought the core from Yulia. She didn't want the payment at first but I forced it on her… She said that it was from Imperial Jackal. It should be from a young Magic Beast who specialized in illusion and speed techniques."

"W-what? Magic Beast? Are you sure?" Vincent was shocked after hearing that such a valuable core was actually used for this sword. Although it was young, Magic Beast at that level should be as strong as an Adept Mage!

"Yes… It was what Yulia said. Even the Magic Craftsman confirmed that it was a Magic Beast…"

"So they were capable of hunting Magic Beast? Ugh… I haven't appraised a Magic Beast's core yet. I should've checked it first. What a pity…"

"Ah… Sorry about that… I thought that it's better to give you a surprise…" Rem replied awkwardly after seeing Vincent's regret.

Nevertheless, Vincent just shook his head and explained.

"It's alright… I will have other opportunities for sure. Anyway, does it mean that the sword gained the beast's abilities?"

Vincent asked himself as he decided to appraise the sword this time.

[ Aura-Forged Unnamed Mithril Sword ]

"Good sword…" Vincent commented after appraising the sword.

Shiiing~

As he unsheathe the sword and swing it a couple of times, Vincent nodded in satisfaction before returning it to its scabbard.

Two attributes and a skill… It is an incredible item with high Durability points on it as expected of a Mithril Sword. He even wanted to use the Transcendence Card on it.

Not only will it receive another attribute, but it will also have another skill!

'Wait… Is it fine to have two skills in one item?' Vincent mused for a moment. He has never seen an item with two skills before.

Well, he wasn't even sure whether it's possible to grant a skill to an item with a skill already infused on it.

Anyway, he will try it later…

"It's still unnamed… Do you have a suggestion, Rem?" Vincent asked while wondering the difference between Soul-Forged, Arcane-Forged, and Aura-Forged items…

He then placed the sword on the table avoiding other items from being touched. It was as if he could see the items on the table.

However, he was really blind and couldn't see at all. The thing that is allowing him to do this was his system's other feature.

Item Sense Ability.

When Vincent developed his Synthetic Celestial Core, it must be remembered that he also unlocked the Item Sense Ability at the same time.

At first, Vincent thought that this skill wouldn't be too useful since he could sense the energy fluctuations of the most powerful items and that is what's more important. He didn't mind being unable to sense those weak or common items since they do not really matter.

However, now that he has become blind, the Item Sense Ability allowed him to improve his sixth sense.

This is also why he could sense Rem's presence. He was only messing with her when he said that he could sense her presence because of her beating heart.

"Isn't that a Mithril Sword? It is also in a darker shade… Why not call it Black Mithril Sword?" Rem answered after thinking for a while.

"It was too simple… But alright, let's call it Aura-Forged Black Mithril Sword…"

"Aura-Forged?"

"Yes… It seems to be the forging technique of the craftsman who made it. When I was still an appraiser at Hearts City, items like Soul-Forged and Arcane-Forged appeared there quite a few times. Do you know something about this forging method?"

"Not really… However, I heard about the Soul-Forged before. Count Magnus has collections of Soul-Forged Items if I'm not mistaken. I heard it from Baron Eldo."

Vincent's interest was piqued after hearing this. Count Magnus was the troublemaker who ordered the two barons to take care of them in the middle of the road because of their greediness to take the White Tiger Cub for themselves.

He has already forgotten about them but the sudden mention of his name reminded him that this count still has a debt he needed to pay.

"Count Magnus, huh… Anyway, that's not important right now. What is your thought about Clan's plan to leave the country? Isn't it too excessive to leave the country just like that?"

"I don't think so. They are facing the threat of their bloodline annihilation. I've heard many things about the Duke and although he appears to be valuing the lives of the citizens of this kingdom, it was just an image created by one of his talented strategists from the Troy Clan."

Rem then continued sharing all the information she gathered about the situation of this war. At this point, Vincent can only sigh as he decided what to do.

"I need to find a safe place to develop…"

He will leave this country with the Zemin Clan and think of separating from them once he arrived in the new country.

He didn't have much choice after all. Joran Troy was still on the loose and was already quite known after creating an antidote for the Barbarian Poison.

If he continued to remain here, it was only a matter of time before someone will set their eyes on him.
