My Aura changed, becoming like a sea of flames encompassing me, my muscles strengthened as I enhanced them with my Magic and my Physique.
It was time to use all my techniques consecutively and finish Irene completely!
"[Consecutive Smithing Strikes]!"
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
First, I used this technique, rapidly unleashing dozens of strikes at once that reshaped Irene's form and strengthened the metal, while cutting down the branching that occurred.
They were strong but not too strong either, so it was just enough for the damage to not be too bad and create a constant push of energies into the metal and the weapon, connecting their elemental essences.
"[Enchanting Strengthening]!"
FLASH!
After that, I hit the air with the hammer strongly, releasing an explosion of golden, sparkling flames that covered the entire shovel, making Irene glow with divine light.
This enchanted her durability and power. Once per weapon was enough, more and the weapon would immediately break.
"[Bonus Enhancing Smite]!"
CLAAANK!
Then, I struck her down strongly as red flames erupted, encompassing her body and rapidly making the runes within her become larger and overflow with Mana.
This enhanced her current "bonuses" and made her also stronger.
"[Delicate Detail]! [Forceful Material-Melding Strike]!"
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
Then, I combined Delicate Detail, a special technique that hit very little and set up details, forging the metal and giving it a shape that was ideal without looking rough, the more refined the better, with the Forceful Material-Melding Strike, which forcefully combined materials, further strengthening the shovel's foundations.
And lastly…
"[Cooling Strike]! [Shaping]!"
Clank…! Clank…! Clank…!
Only a couple more little strikes here and there, as the cooling strike released blue flames that cooled down the heat, making the metal go back to its hard, cold form, while Shaping refined its shape with delicate and dexterous strikes in each corner.
As this happened, Irene couldn't even react anymore, as she was being rained down with powerful blows, shaping her very being and rapidly making her reborn anew.
FLUOSH!
She was almost done, but I finished her off by putting her into the flames completely, engulfing her in their heat, for one last time to "seal" all materials in place.
"It's done!"
Ignis said, as I quickly grabbed the scalding hot weapon with my Aura shaped as a hand, and then placed her inside of the Alchemy Cauldron.
The cold, liquified mana inside quickly washed away the heat and cooled her down completely, finishing the sealing process, the runes were already inscribed through the smithing process, helping us skip some annoying side job and finish it instantly.
FLAAASH!
Once she emerged from the Cauldron, Irene was not the same as before anymore, having completely changed into a majestic shovel of gold color, with red and rainbow-colored handle, her shovel was sharp and with three points, refined with many beautiful decorations and jewels.
"I-Is it done?" Irene wondered; her voice looked tired. "M-my body feels so strange, it is both relieving and tiring…"
She couldn't even float anymore because she was so exhausted, I suppose she needs to rest for now, but without a doubt, her new form was much stronger now.
[You have successfully Reforged [Spiritual Farm Shovel Dragon Staff: Irene (B Rank Magic Weapon)] using your Domain's Abilities and several powerful Materials.]
[The [Spiritual Farm Shovel Dragon Staff: Irene (B Rank Magic Weapon)] has been reforged into the [Crimson Divine Spiritual Titan Draconic Shovel Sword-Axe: Irene (A+++ Rank Magic Weapon)]!]
[Your Weapon's Potential Abilities: [STR & INT +25% (C)] [Great Spiritual Explosion (C)] [Great Elemental Resonance (C)] [MP & INT +25% (C)] [Intelligent Weapon (B)] [Dragon Spirit Summon (B)] have Evolved to: [STR & INT +35% (A)] [Consecutive Spiritual Explosion Attacks (A)] [Divine Spiritual Elemental Fusion (A)] [MP & INT +35% (A)] [Divine Intelligent Weapon (A)] [Divine Dragon Titan Spirit Aura Manifestation (A)]!]
[Your Weapon has gained the following Abilities: [Divine Spiritual Sword-Axe Form (A)], [Earth-Shattering Blazing Cleave (A)], and [Divinely Blessed Weapon: Yggdragon (A)]!]
I heard the World's Voice for some reason, I suppose even things like these applied. And yes, Irene received all the bonuses I wanted, and more.
Her original Abilities evolved into stronger forms at that, and she even stopped being a staff to turn into an Axe-Sword?!
Is this why her shovel is so sharp-looking now and quite long? I guess this was somehow possible.
Well, that's for the better I suppose with that I can use Irene with my other Swordsmanship Arts without issues.
I won't even need to change her shape or something, that's pretty great.
"And it's done!" I said, celebrating. "How much did we spend on this?"
"Around an hour I believe…" Mark said, as he had been mostly glancing. "Can we do my knife next? I know Morpheus is next but it's getting late… I'll do most of the work myself though. I've learned a lot of techniques."
"Oh, sure!" I nodded. "And yeah you did learn techniques back in Arcadia, but can you channel them here?"
"Only one way to find out I suppose," he smiled, as he sat down by my side. "Would you help me out?"
"Of course! Let's do it together then… Ignis is a much smaller weapon thankfully, so she won't be too hard to reforge. There's a lot of leftover materials, should we use these?" I wondered.
"Yeah, I was thinking of using them," nodded Mark. "Plus another item that we've saved, well, we've got plenty of those, but remember the first stone we got from Hellberos and the SWORD agents?"
"Oh, the Crystalized Demonic Energy?" I wondered, taking it out from my inventory. "This! Yeah it has been sitting there for a while. We looted a lot of stuff from Merlinus and his demon army. But why this in specific?"
"I don't know, I guess it is kind of less valuable in a way? And perhaps because it was born in this world, it could be stronger in here and not so hard to manage," Mark said. "Also Hellberos has interesting abilities I would like to see if they can be imprinted into a weapon."
"Not a bad idea!" I nodded. "Alright, let's do that."
