I JUST WANT A PEACEFUL LIFE

772 Elf Forging Technique



"I think by combining our fifth and sixth-grade combatants, we could have more choices while increasing team safety." suggested Angus.

"Certainly, that's a good idea. Jade, I will leave the choice of the team to you. As for the other sixth grade, Duke Quinn will accompany you on this trip." said King Leon.

"Duke Quinn?! Are you sure about that, Your Majesty? Isn't his position too crucial?" asked Jade in confusion.

"Quinn and his team will have another task separated from you. However, I want you to provide them support in case it is necessary." said King Leon without too much explanation.

Still, Jade catches on and guesses King Leon's hidden intention. Undermine Council may already turn into a wasteland and be destroyed beyond repair. However, it is still the dwarf ancestral place for a long time.

There are still many dwarf secret techniques buried in this land. King Leon planned to harvest this treasure trove from the prying eyes. The elite shadow squad under Duke Quinn is the perfect team to do this task without being noticed.

Even if they encounter danger, they can safely retreat through their unique shadow skill. Their fame as the number one squad intelligence is not just for fame.

Unfortunately, this act of thievery is less ethical in the eye of the public, especially when the dwarf is the one who experiences the disaster.

Still, it didn't stop King Leon and others from eyeing this sacred ground. The heritage of the dwarf is enough to light the embers of greed. Be it for personal benefit or group, many forces will use this opportunity as best as possible.

After another lengthy talk about the Jade team, "I guess no one mentioned Throne at the meeting, huh?" asked King Leon.

"No, the dwarf Lotord mentioned it in his story. However, everyone never mentions it, even during the contract and team rules discussion." replied Jade.

"As I expected. Alright, you may go back to your work. Good job for finishing without not making trouble there." said King Leon.

Hearing this, they know the king's sentence is pointed to the youngest man among them.

"Tch… What do you think of me? Some kind of harbinger of calamity or something?" retorted Angus.

"Angus!!" called Jacob.

*WHISH* Before Jacob could continue rebuking his son for his rude manner, Angus was already gone while covered in fire [Flame Teleportation]. Leaving the Royal Palace, Angus immediately returned to his home in Freyspire City to meet Jayna and Anna with the help of Draven.

He plans to continue his research about elf forging techniques. Since he planned to use [Analyze] second threshold, he couldn't just leave his body unguarded alone when researching inside his battle space system.

Even inside his Victory manor at the royal capital couldn't assure him enough safety. The only people he trusts that can guard his body properly are his beloved woman and daughter, Jayna and Anna.

Although Anna is always playing around, she is better than anyone regarding his safety. Her danger sense and instinct are so absurd, comparable to divine precognition.

Moreover, Jayna is also good at detecting any living being nearby. Compared to King Leon or his father, who is busy with their work, Anna and Jayna are the best choice to guard his body.

Arriving at the training ground, "Daddy!!" called Anna excitedly.

The little troublemaker holding a whole roasted pig while running to him. In a short moment of her arrival, Anna procures some roasted pig while Angus talks with King Leon and the others.

Angus is also unsurprised to find the sleeping giant Porky lying in the corner of their training ground. He knows Anna could call the big lazy pig or its miniature everywhere.

After greeting his beloved little family and eating roasted pig, he wasted no more time. He immediately entered his battle system with Jayna inside their bedroom.

Mastering her phoenix power is prone to experience and control rather than physical exercise. Jayna didn't train her real physical body to control her body, mind, and soul.

Even if she trained inside Angus' battle space, these three aspects would still increase. Moreover, it also prevents others from ogling her charming sweating body.

Unlike the Victory Manor in the capital city, their training ground is shared with other Victory knights and guards. Previously, Angus needed to cast some barrier and enchantment to prevent others from peeking at his woman.

However, casting and maintaining the barrier spell is a hassle. Creating another proper training ground also takes a lot of time and effort. As for the basement private training ground, it is too humid, damp, and lacks natural fire sources like the sun.

The basement is unsuitable for Jayna's current training. Moreover, Jayna needs not only to master her phoenix power but also her emotion phoenix power. A dark and closed space like the underground may affect her.

On the other hand, Angus' battle space is considered a neutral environment. It is neither giving a pleasant nor gloomy feeling. In the end, it is better to let Jayna train inside Angus' battle space.

Entering the space, the young couple immediately do their own task after apprehending the monster nearby. Jayna sits on the white ground floor, slowly creating a floating fireball around her. In contrast, Angus is rooted in his spot without moving and absent-minded.

Inside his mind, he makes hundreds of calculations and many simulations while digesting every elf forging technique simultaneously. Angus couldn't count how often he found his simulation, resulting in a failure when incorporating the elf forging technique into his design.

The elf forging technique is a simple mana elemental manipulation encompassing all the basic elementals. In theory, all things should have at least one elemental as their component, unless it is a pure non-basic elemental material.

With good and appropriate elemental control, one could change the object's physical structure to a certain degree. Utilizing this theory and elemental manipulation, the elf smither turns the material into a liquid state.

Be it hard stone, mineral, metal, fire, or even steel filled with dense lightning elementals, all of them could become a liquid. However, turning into a liquid state also degrades the material over time.

To prevent the material degradation and loss of its properties, the elf put the liquid inside a unique artificial pool called the Mineral Pool. This is also the same small lake Angus sees when he visits the Roundel Smithing facility.

Mineral Pool is a particular enchantment area to prevent the liquid material from degrading or losing their properties. Creating a Mineral Pool itself is an arduous task and takes a lot of time.

To create a mineral pool, the smither must sacrifice countless materials containing all the basic elemental as its foundation. With more liquid material thrown inside the Mineral Pool, it will give a better effect, such as providing the product with random additional properties.

In other words, Mineral Pool is a collection of various liquified materials that could enhance or give additional properties to the new liquified material. The additional material is very random and couldn't be predicted.

One person could get additional fire elemental properties, others could get ice elemental properties or many more. Angus wasn't surprised at such a gambling forging method, unlike the dwarf or the conventional forging method that planned everything from start to finish.

The elf race is not only famous for being long-aged and their nature-lover. They also heavily rely on luck all their life. Some rumors even said the elves are blessed with an immense fortune that they could win every game in a gambling den without losing a single money.

Even if they cheated, their money will also return in the end. This is also called Elven Luck. Unfortunately, Angus is only human without any connection with Elven Luck.

He also could have asked Sylvia for help with this case since her current form is inappropriate for doing a heavy task such as forging. Still, it didn't prevent Angus from incorporating the Mineral Pool and liquifying technique into his design.

Angus may not master all the basic elementals like the elf smither. However, he has enough mastery over the fire elemental. Moreover, the main attribute of Jayna's sword is fire elemental. Therefore, creating a Mineral Pool that only contains fire-elemental liquid is possible.

Still, it is also not an easy task. The Mineral Pool created by the elf smither is formed by balancing all the basic elementals in a certain ratio.

Although it is not impossible to create a single fire elemental, it is still hard to find the perfect ratio and form to balance the whole Mineral Pool.

To his surprise, Angus could still not create a perfect ratio for his Mineral Pool even after a whole day of using [Analyze]. However, he is also reluctant to give up on the elven liquify technique.

During his preliminary research, he finds the red-veined wood they got last time is impervious to any fire and contains fire properties. It is similar to Absolute Red.

The red-veined wood may look hard and capable of holding against the previous Fire Phoenix's full-power. However, it is not entirely indestructible. In fact, one just needs to soak it with a drop of water to disintegrate the entire wood.
