Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

"Because it will have less heaven and energy," Arthur said before returning again to make more of the melted ore, "besides it's a known fact that dirty elements have good ability to absorb heaven and earth energy."

"Really?"

"Yeah, all the heavenly treasures started first with a piece of dirty thing that no one would ever care about," Arthur said while adding ores inside the oven. "Bring purified blood and put it over the mold," he said to his system which did what he asked for.

"Sizzle!"

The moment the purified blood touched the mold, it didn't fill on the sides yet it accumulated over the gloves like being attracted by something to it. The sizzling sounds kept happening while Arthur patiently waited. "I hope this works," he muttered before going on and taking one pair to examine it.

"Incredible," the golden dragon commented, ``I can sense the influx of a new energy through this piece of crap."

"This is a low version indeed," Arthur nodded, "my own energy is the factor limiting it. Sigh, even after using the Golam's blood it didn't help much in supporting my energy."

He paused thinking for a second before sighing, "nah, I can't waste time waiting for my energy to break through all the minor stages up towards core formation."

He shook his head before saying, "take these and distribute them to their owners."

"Ding! What about explaining things to them?"

"Not now," Arthur shook his head before adding, "let them discover the value of these gloves by themselves."

He then went ahead and kept making these gloves for three days. When he finished, he received at least dozens of bird's wings from Amelia asking about those miraculous gloves and how they worked.

Yet Arthur completely ignored her. For him this was just the first step in changing the entire concepts of many techniques known in the academy world.

"They don't need to learn the secret," he muttered, "it's too complicated to explain and they won't understand a thing."

He let go of another bird's wing he just received before turning around. "As I started with forging, I should get going doing it my way then," he read the booklet Slone gave him a couple of times until he memorized it.

He knew what he would need to make this sword. "Take me to the extracted ore mountains and hills again," he muttered and the next moment he appeared there.

He didn't hurry in making a decision while moving around and examining the ores here. He had already made himself a pair of gloves, aiming to augment the amount of energy absorbed by his body.

Once wore these, he felt the rate of absorbing energy to be tripled, making him delighted by this. "I should make an entire body armor using the same principle," he muttered, yet his main goal now was to test his past world techniques here.

"This will do, take some of its veins and put them next to the oven," he pointed to a faint red hill after testing its ore. The ore seemed to have extra durability that other ores he tested so far, making it suitable to make his sword.

"This one, this one, and that one," he kept selecting ores until he selected a group of twenty kinds then he ended his tour here. "That's enough, I hope," he smiled faintly before adding, "take me back."

When he returned, he didn't hurry and start making the sword. "The top technique back in my days was to mix alchemy with forging," he muttered before turning to his cauldron where only a small amount of the mix of his and the Golam's blood remained there.

"Should I make it aiding in absorbing energy as well?" he muttered before thinking of other options. "Adding strength and increasing sharpness, speed, and durability are all fine, but to me this won't make much difference," he sighed.

"All I need now is something to help increase the energy entering my dantian, so I can be able to upgrade faster," he decided and he didn't intend to only make the sword, but other things as well.

For the sword he had the mold of it ready to use, so he didn't need his mold to make a sword. Instead he started reshaping the mold, creating spaces for arm guards, leg guards, boots, chest plate, and helmet.

These were the basic things he had in mind that could augment his energy absorption rate. "Hopefully this could result in more energy influx," he muttered.

"Ding! Hopefully your body won't explode," the system cracked a joke and he just smiled as he said: "My dragonair body will support me here."

"True," the golden dragon agreed with his remark.

"Now," he turned towards the piles of ore surrounding him and muttered, "should I work on them before melting, or after melting?"

"Ding! During melting, it would be easier."

"Before melting, this would yield stronger results."

Arthur laughed, "It's funny how you two seem quite wise and experienced about something you didn't know before now."

"…"

"…"

He laughed on their reaction before adding, "I will do it before melting the ores." He went towards his cauldron before thinking deeply about how he should use it to augment the ores' energy and traits.

"Take me to the densest place of herbs here," he muttered and then he was transported to an area close to the place of his sealing pillars and the angry Anna.

"Tsk, she is stubborn," he shook his head when he heard her continuous assault on the protective dome.

"Some people seem not to learn from their lessons," the golden dragon sneered.

"Ding! Agreed."

"Sigh, she is just carried by her vengeance," he shook his head before moving his gaze towards all the plants and flowers around him. "This would do," he started examining each carefully and taking what he needed.

He slowly crossed a large distance before finally feeling satisfied. "Take me back," he said with a wide smile over his face.
