DanMachi: Starting with a Sword Soul Template

Chapter 152: Indestructible Armament, Sloth and Gluttony

Because Liam had never been exposed to forging, he didn't know what the concept of three thousand times really meant.

And this was a fantasy world of sword and magic, so the rules of his previous world probably couldn't be used as a reference in forging.

The specific differences in rules between these two worlds could only be known after trying them one by one.

"For armaments, is it better the more times they are folded and forged?"

Goibniu observed the state of the metal billet in the furnace, "For the same material, the more times it is folded and forged, the better.

The premise is that the number of folds does not exceed the material's forging limit.

Once the material's limit is surpassed, each forging will cause a loss in the material's performance.

The more folds, the more powdered materials can be mixed in. For example, mixing in mithril powder and the like.

The strength of an alloy is always stronger than a single metal!"

Liam nodded, and then he heard news that shocked him.

"Liam, your blood and power are very special, you know? You are a super genius born for forging!

This piece of metal, at the current rate, one blade can be forged in a day!"

"One blade a day?"

This was a possibility Liam had never imagined!

Subsequently, he was enveloped by a huge joy, the corners of his mouth rising uncontrollably.

If it was one blade a day, then it would only take twenty-four days to forge them all!

Even Sword Princess Ais Wallenstein only had one indestructible armament.

Subsequently, Liam thought of another matter.

Right, if I have a full twenty-four First-Grade armaments, then how on earth am I supposed to carry them?

The Seven Sins sword case could only fit seven weapons.

Forget it, I'll think about future matters in the future.

Now, Liam just had to fully cooperate with the god Goibniu.

"Even if I'm joking, I won't joke about forging."

Goibniu seemed to be the type of serious person, especially with his high requirements for forging.

Liam nodded, "May I try the folding and forging? I have already memorized your technique."

"If it's just folding and forging, that's completely fine. This is the step with the least technical content."

Goibniu handed the hammer to Liam.

Liam took the hammer and came before the metal billet, looking at this blue metal.

Many thoughts appeared in his mind. Following his instinct, he activated many of his powers.

Weapon Tempering, Overdrive, Warlord's Fervor, Selfless Sword Aura, Magic Power...

These powers were imbued onto his body, and onto the hammer in his hand.

A dragon's cry, a sword's hum, and that unique swordsman's presence rose from Liam's body and the hammer.

"This feeling..."

Alright, alright, directly entering a state of enlightenment, are we!

Goibniu looked at Liam with some helplessness. He had been standing there for a minute.

He looked at the blue metal in front of Liam with some worry. What if this enlightenment lasted for an hour?

Goibniu also knew that he couldn't disturb the other party at this time.

It would more or less reduce the material's performance, by at least a few percentage points.

Fortunately, Liam quickly came out of his state of enlightenment.

Goibniu breathed a sigh of relief. Just one minute, it wouldn't affect the material's performance at all.

Liam didn't pay attention to Goibniu's gaze. He just followed his own instinct and then forged according to Goibniu's technique.

"Clang~! Clang~! Clang~!"

From unfamiliar at the beginning, to fluent, and finally to being as proficient as an old blacksmith who had been forging for more than ten years.

Liam only took ten minutes.

Blunt weapons naturally included hammers. And in the process of swinging the hammer, he felt that he gradually understood all the characteristics of this blue metal before him.

Which position of the metal should be forged, and where to fold it, he could perfectly master.

"Add the powder!"

"Yes!"

Taking the powder from Goibniu's hand, Liam immediately poured it onto the surface of the billet, and then folded, and continued to forge...

Goibniu couldn't help but gape. Liam had mastered weapon forging so quickly?

And, his movements were so efficient at expelling the impurities from the billet?

Ridiculous, truly ridiculous!

And in the process of Liam using his ability to forge, the deformation speed of the metal billet was very fast!

It was the kind where the deformation speed was accelerating without changing the material's own properties!

Ridiculous!

Liam forging the metal billet now was as easy as an ordinary person chopping a sapling with an axe.

And the efficiency was astonishing.

One could only say, was this a forging genius?

For the timing and amount of powder to add, Liam had his own understanding.

This was a weapon he was forging for himself. Just holding the hammer in his hand and activating various powers.

This metal billet, infused with his power and blood, now had some special connection established with him.

So this is the derivative use of Weapon Tempering and Overdrive?

Liam was engrossed in the work of forging and folding the weapon. Later on, the speed of forging and folding became ridiculously fast.

Goibniu's expression had already become somewhat numb, "One fold every two seconds?"

Yes, when Liam used the hammer to strike the billet, he could strike many times every second.

Each fold would take about two seconds, and later, the folding speed naturally became even faster!

After five hours, Liam had actually forged the billet ten thousand times!

"How can it be so fast! It's already been forged ten thousand times?"

Liam only felt that his entire body's stamina had been consumed by eighty or ninety percent. If not for the enhancement of Warlord's Fervor, he really might not have been able to last this long.

The current Warlord's Fervor, when he released it, even if there were no enemies around, could still enhance himself.

"I need to rest for a while. May I ask how much longer it will take to complete?"

"Five hours! The subsequent heat treatment and finishing are all fine work. Just leave it to me."

Liam nodded, "Then I'll go rest for a while. I'll come back in five hours to help."

Goibniu had consumed almost nothing in these five hours, so now he was full of energy.

Usually, when he got excited about his work or when inspiration struck, he could go a whole day without eating!

Liam first prepared a meal for the god Goibniu, then went directly to find Eina.

At this time, the Adventurer's Guild window was about to close. Eina looked at the window boredly, then her eyes immediately sparkled.

Liam, carrying a bouquet of flowers, walked towards her.

Eina had a smile on her face, her steps light as she approached Liam.

"Miss Eina, this is a flower for you. I hope you like it."

"Thank you, I really like it. So, Mr. Liam, what brings you here this time?"

Because she had received flowers from Liam, a clear blush appeared on Eina's face.

Before coming over, Liam had already taken a hot bath.

In just ten minutes, there was not a trace of sweat or dirt on his body.

"Naturally, to invite the beautiful Miss Eina to dinner? I will naturally do what I promised."

Inside The Hostess of Fertility restaurant.

Liam and Eina sat at a window seat. On the table were delicious foods that they both liked.

Eating the delicious food, Eina's mood was clearly very happy. From time to time, she shared interesting things that happened around her with Liam.

To take care of Liam's experience, Eina specially chose things related to adventurers. For example, the precautions for the lower and deep levels of the Dungeon, for example, the distribution range of floor resources she had specially collected, and so on.

One could only say that this meal was very worth its value. Liam learned many useful things from Eina.

Is this the feeling of being liked by someone?

Because Eina liked him, she hoped to make Liam better, hoped to help Liam as much as possible.

Liam listened attentively. After finishing dinner, he brought a takeaway meal and returned to the Familia home base.

Hestia quickly came to greet him. Her originally happy face immediately showed a nervous expression.

"This is a woman's perfume smell! Liam, who is it this time?"

"It's Miss Eina. I want to forge some First-Grade armaments for my own use, so after the compulsory expedition,

when I complete the recruitment tomorrow morning, I probably won't be back."

At this time, Liam gathered all the Familia members.

He first looked at Hestia, "Lady Hestia, I'm preparing to allocate some funds to everyone to upgrade their armaments."

He looked at everyone present, "Because we have the Grand Casino, I'm preparing to provide a portion of armament subsidies for everyone.

This time I will provide armament subsidies. Everyone can use it to buy one piece of armor and one weapon.

The Familia will subsidize 50%;

The grade of the armament is the highest level of Second-Grade and the primary level of First-Grade.

In every subsequent expedition, half of everyone's salary will be deducted proportionally until it is completely paid off."

That is to say, this time, everyone was equivalent to borrowing two pieces of equipment for free.

On the premise of using it first and paying later, and only having to repay 50% of the total price, one could only say it was a huge profit!

"Long live the captain!"

All the Familia members present shouted loudly, especially Lili.

At this time, Lili's eyes were shining, "My previous adventure, my ability scores have all been greatly improved.

This time with such good weapons and armor, I feel I can level up too!"

Daphne, Mikoto, and Cassandra all clenched their fists.

This was a Second-Grade, or even a First-Grade armament! For them, adventurers, it was very difficult to possess one before!

Liam's so generous act naturally made everyone excited.

"Then we can start shopping now! Remember to have the shop prepare the receipt for collection."

"Hooray!"

The young women left the room one after another. Liam looked at Hestia.

"I'll leave the subsequent payment to you. It's best to pay when you're with Mikoto and Lili."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Hestia patted her rich and generous chest.

According to the current momentum of the Hestia Familia, if anyone wanted to deceive Hestia, Liam wouldn't mind assassinating them directly.

No, it should be said that the other party would mysteriously evaporate.

Lying on the soft bed, Liam slept for three hours in one breath.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

Glancing at the alchemy alarm clock by the bed, Liam once again prepared some food and other things and went to Goibniu's place.

According to the current efficiency, around eight o'clock the next morning, the second indestructible armament would also be out of the furnace.

Liam came before the furnace where Goibniu was.

At this time, Goibniu had an excited look on his face, his hands on his hips, constantly laughing up at the sky.

After seeing Liam, he greeted the other party with joy.

"Liam, come! Come quickly! This is the newly formed, highest-grade First-Grade indestructible armament!"

Is this Sloth?

Liam was pulled by Goibniu and walked towards a certain place.

The blade's body presented a sapphire-like color. Dense forged steel patterns covered the blade's body, converging into patches of clouds...

Not a single trace of energy was leaked, but just by staring at the blade's edge, one could feel its astonishing sharpness.

The shape was a katana, the hilt pitch-black.

Liam picked up Sloth. Just by picking it up, he felt as if this blade was a part of his body.

"This feeling..."

"How is it? This is an armament that has recognized its master. Only this kind of armament can stimulate all your own potential.

In fact, it will even adjust according to your emotions."

Liam nodded. Then he infused his Selfless Sword Aura into it.

An astonishing sword cry vibrated on the blade's body. A cold, sky-blue light flashed, and a white, cold mist spread out from the blade's body towards the surroundings.

Immediately after, Liam infused the dragon-shaped sword aura into it.

A dragon's cry sounded. The cold mist condensed into a dragon's head and body, directly transforming into a divine dragon of cold mist, coiling around the entire blade body.

Isn't this Genji's ultimate?

Taste the Dragonblade!

There was no longer any need to slash out. Just by infusing the dragon-shaped sword aura, he already knew the powerful destructive effect it would cause after release.

By the time the Dungeon expedition began, he would have enough time for various experiments.

Goibniu looked at Liam, "This armament is not bad, right? This is the strongest First-Grade armament in all of Orario!

And it also has the indestructible attribute!"

Liam nodded, his heart beating faster with joy.

Subsequently, he began to recall the characteristics of these two metals, "Excuse me, do you have any other rare metals of the same level here?"

"Yes, the seven effect-type armament metals you mentioned, I have them all..."

"Master!"

The corners of Goibniu's mouth couldn't help but rise, "Good, then I'll sell them to you at cost price!"

With no more worries, Liam told the other party the effects of the entire Seven Sins.

"What? You mean when using the seven armaments at the same time, it will also condense a special domain field?"

Goibniu's face became excited, "This is so interesting! I must make it!"

Subsequently, Goibniu, according to Liam's design, began to add new magic patterns to the already completed Sloth.

How exciting, the moment all Seven Sins are out of the furnace.

Time flew by. By eight o'clock the next morning.

Two of the highest-grade First-Grade indestructible armaments were already attached to Liam's waist.

One was Sloth, and the other was Gluttony.

Gluttony was in the shape of a Yatagan or Damascus sword.

However, Liam had lengthened it.

The total length was 100 cm, the blade part was 85 cm, the blade width was 3 to 5 cm, and the hilt grip part was 15 cm.

Its effect was obvious. During battle, by stimulating Selfless Sword Aura or dragon-shaped sword aura, it could release a red corrosive poison mist.

The dragon-shaped sword aura would cause the poison mist to undergo a morphological change...
