Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 36.3 - The forge

"Oh my…..This will take a while…."

As those words spilled from the mouth of Vorgvir, he couldn't help but shake his head. Even for him, who had been one of the best legendary blacksmiths in the entire universe, the things he had seen in the vision were hard to make.

'A weapon that contains different forms?'

When one thought about making weapons, the first important element would be the blacksmith that would make it.

But the other one would be materials.

'How can I find the materials to make such an item?'

Knowing that he had been away from the eyes of the world, it was clear that he didn't have enough materials in his inventory.

"What is the problem?" At that moment, the young man opened his eyes, standing up. His gaze met with Vorgvir's.

"Sigh…." A hearty sigh left Vorgvir's mouth as he proceeded to explain the things about the weapon he had seen.

"The weapon I had seen in your essence….It will be very hard to make." He said, turning back to the workshop.

"Is it because there isn't actually one weapon, but many were there?" the young man probed, his eyes darting around the place, looking for the remnants of the vial.

"Indeed. In a sense, one can only hold one weapon connected to their essence, and it is almost unseen for one to connect with more than one weapon."

"And I am not one of them."

"Yes. And because of that, the vision I had seen simply means the weapon you will connect with needs to contain many forms, not one."

"Hmm….."

"Creating such a weapon is no simple task. The essence you've witnessed requires rare and powerful materials, some of which are not easily found in this realm. We'll need to embark on a journey to gather these components from various corners of the world."

"What kind of materials will you need?" However, the young man seemed rather relaxed even against this revelation.

"..." Hearing this, Vorgvir fell into silence for a second, sorting his thoughts. His mind had already formed a clear direction to follow in his mind for the weapon that needed to be made. "First and foremost, your powers…."

Before he could continue, the young man nodded his head. "Moonstone."

Hearing this, Vorgvir's eyes widened for a second.

'This kid…Does he know his origins?'

He looked at the young man talking.

'No, he probably doesn't.'

Looking at him, it was evident that he was just a cheeky and a bit edgy young kid who didn't know much about the world, but it also seemed he researched about himself.

"We will need [Moonstone]."

"Yes. We will need [Moonstone] as the conductor of your source of powers." Vorgvir replied, nodding his head.

'It is sad that I can't tell you about anything…..Tch, that contract.' Inwardly, Vorgvir clicked his tongue. Even though the kid had the right to know, there were things out of his control here.

Vorgvir gestured toward the array of weapons displayed in the workshop, each possessing distinctive forms derived from the inherent qualities of the materials used. A small flame danced in his hand as he illustrated the interplay between material and form. freeweɓnøvel.com

"All of the weapons we made tend to have at least a special form," Vorgvir explained. "Every material has specific characteristics that contribute to the final shape and function of the weapon. However, there are instances when the desired result won't take a special form due to constraints, much like the weapon you seek."

The young man nodded in understanding, prompting him to pose a crucial question. "So, we need a suitable material for this characteristic, is that correct?"

"Indeed, it is," Vorgvir affirmed. "A material that defies a specific form—a rarity so profound that discovering it is nearly impossible due to its elusive nature—[Morphium]. This substance harmonizes with the ebb and flow of your essence, granting the weapon the ability to shift and adapt."

As Vorgvir concluded his explanation, he fixed a discerning gaze on the young man. "However, acquiring both [Moonstone] and [Morphium] will be an arduous task. These materials are exceptionally scarce, and their unique characteristics make them challenging to locate. The journey ahead is bound to be fraught with trials and dangers. Of course, from-"

TAK!

Just as he was about to continue, a sudden and unexpected sound interrupted him.

"Are you talking about these?"

Vorgvir turned, his eyes widening at the sight before him. There, on the ground just before the kid, lay the two materials he had just described—[Moonstone] and [Morphium].

"….."

Vorgvir was momentarily taken aback, not anticipating to see these elusive materials appear before them at that exact moment. The air in the cavern seemed charged with an unexpected energy as the blacksmith processed the uncanny turn of events.

"….You…." He was speechless.

'How does he have those materials?'
