Dark Magus Returns
289 Growing The Crimson Crane
After the Dark Magus had agreed to create another item for Kizer, he had already rushed out to grab what was needed for Raze to get to work. In the meantime, Raze himself was in his own Alchemist room recovering his mana.
He had used up quite a bit of it working on the pestle for Reno. During this time, he had also consumed non-cursed blue Qi pills.
'I've dragged myself into more work than I needed to,' Raze thought to himself as he sat down in a meditative state. 'There is so much for me to still do. I need to create the other Qi pills, and also head to Alterian soon for myself.
'On top of that, I need to gather food supplies to take back to the others. Still, helping them out will also give me a better chance to go against the academy when the time comes for it,' Raze thought to himself.
A short while later, a really short while, Kizer had come sprinting back into the room, with something long tied to his back. He placed it on the ground and unraveled the piece of string around it. Raze could see a number of large long swords. All of them were flashy in design, with strange markings on the hilt and on the blade itself. All of them looked better than the swords that Raze himself had obtained or that he saw at the auction. It was clear that they were all of a great level. With the fifteen swords, there were also fifteen level 3 power stones as well, and that's when Raze realized something.
"I want to tell you something before you get your hopes up," Raze suggested. "The item I will create for you might not be at the same level as the one for Reno."
Immediately, Kizer wanted to blurt out why, and he thought that it would be favoritism. But calming his mind, he realized that couldn't be the case. Otherwise, why would the Dark Magus even bother to tell him such things in the first place?
"You remember the pile of pestles from before; well, that's because of how many unsuccessful attempts there were. Each of those pestles is still enchanted, but in the end, out of the fifty, only two were worthy of being something great. However, here you have given me great swords. Swords that are much rarer compared to the regular pestles that already have their own level of power. We simply don't have as many attempts with them as we would do with the others," Raze explained. "It will still have a great benefit, and it will still help you, but I just wanted to inform you beforehand."
Kizer had to admit he was a little saddened when hearing this, but he also knew it didn't mean that he wouldn't get such a great item. There was still a chance, and in the first place, his expectations were low before he had seen Reno's item.
"Whatever you make for me, I am sure it will aid me in my battles. Please try your best. I will leave you to get to work so you won't get distracted." Kizer bowed down as he left the room.
Raze looked at the weapons on the ground along with the crystals. This was going to be more work than previously. With the weapons, rather than a basic enchantment, he thought it would be best to give them elemental enchantments. To make them stronger, he would have to use Dark Magic as well. This meant he would have to focus with two types of magic. Last time, he had a feeling the condensing of his magic worked, but now he would have to try to do that with two types of magic while trying to get a balance.
"This could take a while, and I will need to rest in between attempts. Oh well, rather than thinking about it, I might as well get on with it."
Upon returning to Reno, Kizer could see that he was already making more creations with his new item and tool. He was sure that Reno would be pulling all-nighters using the tool to see what he could create. After all, his body was filled with complex poisons with more than just one type, so he would have to create a number of different recipes to increase his power from all over as well.
"I was just thinking that Dark Magus, he's a nicer person than I originally thought," Kizer commented.
"Oh, really, I thought you had a bad feeling about him," Reno replied, not looking up while continuing his work.
"I mean I did, and I still kinda feel that way. I can't help it, maybe it's to do with him feeling like poison like you said, but the thing is, he gave you such a powerful item just like that. Do you think most alchemists, if they had created such a great thing, that they would be willing to hand over something like that? If anything, they would hide the fact. What you have is an item that would be sought after by alchemists all over the world, and yet he gave it away."
"You're right, he might be a nice person," Reno replied. "But don't you think it could be something else as well? Maybe it's just that, something like this means nothing to him. At the end of the day, we really don't know much about him or his past."
While the day continued, and Kizer patiently waited for his item to be made, they were all unaware that just outside the large metal Alchemist building, the entire area had been surrounded by Pagna warriors.
"Do those guys live in there or something?" Clipper commented with a large yawn. Clipper was one of the squad leaders of the Behemoth clan. "Alright, I'm tired of waiting around. Let's just head in there and drag the two of them out of there."
"Actually, there's a good chance that they could be meeting with the Dark Magus; he's an alchemist, right? Alright, change of plans, drag every person out of there."
