After making an improvement on his own, finally improved to level nine. And not a moment too early, as he was going to face the end boss next. But first, he checked out the pair of gauntlets that gently floated towards him from the center of the Waters of Styx. The special thing about this pair of gloves, apart from the options, were the two demonic…-

Seth stayed in bed a while longer, together with Fin and Mina. Considering the heavy discussion yesterday they all welcomed the distraction. The blacksmith showed up in his workshop sometime around midday. Feeling much calmer, Seth was ready to start the last stretch, which had just become that much more important. With a lining of death fabric, the headpiece had the least fabric, and such was the first he wanted to start with. The lining of death fabric was not the only thing special about it. The…

The immortal looked into their eyes, and a tense silence filled the room. “But why all of a sudden? From what I understood, they didn't show any great interest so far...” Jane finally asked. “That is true, the scum you have met so far, apart from me, has been the bottom of the barrel. None of them can really compare to what is about to happen,” Yu affirmed. Hearing that their experiences with cultivators were only the tip of the iceberg or rather the bottom of the barrel, left a few of them with…

Seth had already decided on the soul for the core piece of the armor. He chose one of the souls he had further refined that combined a strong affinity with heavy armor and pugilism. It seemed like a good match for the cuirass. After the short respite of forging the soul armament, he faced the consequences of his choices. The enchantment he prepared for the cuirass was the generic automaton core circuit of Hephaestus. An enchantment that was even more difficult than the master-tier circuits he had gotten…

"You managed to finish the Gambeson?" Seth asked as he visited Neeco in his room the next day. The tailor had thoroughly exhausted himself but he was already looking better after having a meal and a visit from Lynri. It seemed like Alison had also tended to him, during the night. "Yes, here it is!" he said and pulled it out. Like the gloves and lining, it was made of ink black fabrics. It swallowed the light, making it hard to see any details apart from the contours. Unable to make out the characteristic…

---Minas Mar--- Slowly, Seth walked through the dungeon in the style of an ancient ruin. Hieroglyphs and reliefs nobody could understand covered the walls, giving the place an aura of mysticism and danger. He unwittingly stepped on a pressure plate and a volley of poison arrows rained on him, only to be deflected by his armor, dealing no damage whatsoever. The party behind him gasped in awe. “I stepped on it on purpose, to show you what can happen if you are not careful in places like this, where traps…

“Yeah, they are crime lords, so shouldn’t they be greedy? Wouldn’t it be a lot easier to ask for the information directly and pay for it? We might even be able to buy her back for the right price.” the saint of the ugly sun asserted. “Ray, we didn’t really bring a lot of money,” Lydia mentioned. Although Seth was Mr. Moneybags and would definitely approve Ray's method, given their current circumstances, Mike and Lydia didn’t really bring a lot with them. They doubted it would be enough to…

---Unclaimed Mountains, Morranto--- The guard had already returned to the posts when the group of three came closer to the gate. Although they had tried to stop the bird, they didn’t seem overly concerned about the people they lost. “Leave the talking to me. I will get us in, “ Ray assured them as he stepped before the guards. However, there was not much talking at all! It was a quick exchange of a stack of silver coins that made the guard step aside, letting them enter through the city gates.…

---Unclaimed Mountains, Morranto, 2 days later--- The Emerald City was called the entrance to the Unclaimed Mountains, the most western branch of the central mountain range. After passing the entrance, the climate quickly changed again. They were still in the mountains, but the climate became closer to a desert. The mountains were dry and hot in the day, and freezing cold in the night. The mountains were not really covered in snow, instead, it was a barren and desolate landscape of rocky cliffs and…

The next day, Seth finally started enchanting Evee's new armor. For starters, there was the integrated circuit, based on the master tier necromancy enchantments he had gotten from Arget Nore and further refined with Sivri's experienced eyes. Although Seth couldn't finish the armor until Neeco delivered the gloves for the gauntlets and the gambeson, he could still go ahead and engrave the circuit on the parts he had already forged, and he started with the cuirass. Engraving the demanded a lot of care…
