Chapter 7 - fusion sword

After Lilith had her breakfast, I gave her some of my clothes that I had packed for the way just in case I my other clothes had some stains on them.

They were a little too big for her since she was a kid. I told her to follow close to me and keep an eye out for monsters.

On our way we encountered a lot of rank E monsters, so I took the chance to teach her how to protect herself in case I was not around to help her.

When I was back at the black smith, I took a sword and a dagger in case the sword broke faster than expected and my sword was already forming some cracks.

She had some talent with the dagger, but her body was still too weak to block the monsters attack fully, so I gave her some of my aura to give some strength, she started to handle them a little

And when we encountered monsters above D rank I took then down, and she collected the mana stones in them.

When we got to the hill she was surprised to see that we've already made it out the other side of the forest in less than half a day.

I had to move fast since I had already spent a night out of the village and my mother must have been very worried.

So, when I got to the top, I didn't bother to dig I just increased the magnetic field around me and the metal under the hill went up then I compressed it to make the sword.

The metal was at list 40 tons, and I compressed it to the point that in started eating up and making some sparks fly.

I kept on compressing until the desired shape was formed. Sharpening was the hard part of making it, the sword was so dense that not even diamond could sharpen it, so I had to use aura, and mana to shave of the sides of the metal.

It took me a little over 4 hours to sharpen the sword, but I knew that it was worth it since I'd finally had a sword that wouldn't break within 2 days of use. And using the mana stones that we got from the beasts in the forests, I made a Mana stone with that was capable of absorbing my force manipulation abilities.

I used some wood to make the handle, and it was basically done, and with the left-over metal, mana stones and wood I made two daggers for Lilith, that had a similar absorbing skill, but it was different for her.

Hers absorbed the maa in her body to make so daggers lighter the same as mine, but her twin daggers had a connection to each other making them to be like linked chain daggers a there rang was a little over 30 meters apart.

Mine was just a sword that had the ability to control the force around it and make it lighter, and the mana stone acted as a storage for the force it absorbed from me giving it an ownership function.

The ownership function was there to protect it from being used by someone who had no permission from me and also who didn't have the same energy signature and strength to wield it.

But as long as that person has my permission to use the sword the mana stone would be the source of the power needed to use it and since the sword actually weighs around 40 tans the mana stone will also make it lighter buy manipulating its gravitational field and the same goes for Lilith's daggers though they only weighed over 10 tons.

The sword and daggers had completely fused with our mana and aura.

when I went back home with the swords and Lilith the whole village had their eyes on us mostly because the saw the elf child.

One of them actually asked how much I could sell her for. Lilith looked scared when they asked me that question, but I turn them all down.

when I got home mom was overjoyed to see me and gave me a hug. when she saw Lilith, she though that I had a slave given to me by the Nayami family, but I told her that she was lost, and I told her that she could stay with us till she could find a place to go.

Mom took her in after hearing that and she never asked about the giant sword on my back and the daggers on Lilith's hips.

When night fell, I went out to find the town representative that I set up to ask him if there were any announcements made by the village's nobles.

Turns out that the resent incident that that happened at my place cause the second prince of the Suzachi empire to be stripped of his authority and was banished from the empire.

Our village was not held responsible for humiliating the prince and were actually thanked for doing it because the prince was weak and relied on the title of prince to rule over people and that stained the Suzachi empires pride that only prioritized power.

I went home and the moment I stepped in I fond Lilith and mom waiting for me and asked why I went out late in the night.

I just told them that I had some things to take care of, and it was urgent. 

I told Lilith to go to my room upstairs to rest and I would be sleeping in the room next to it.

When she was gone, I told mom that Lilith had no family left and I take her in to be part of ours.

I told he how she was running away and saw her own family die in front of her.

This story made mom shed some tiers and she said that she would do everything in her power to keep her safe, then she giggled and said that it was very unexpected that I would do something that kind considering how emotionless I look most of the time.

The next day I took Lilith to a store to get her some clothes. The shop I was going to was owned by a man named Mark Katsuragi. He was one of the people that were after my house and saw me kill one of the people who he planned to buy the house from.

I owned half of the profits of the shop and had him work for me as an information gatherer.

I took some clothes for Lilith and told him to tell the others that there was a knew member to the family.
