Dimensional Descent

Talon kept glaring at Leonel fiercely, making the latter have to use all his willpower to not roll his eyes. Clearly, Talon wasn't going to give in until Leonel explained how he had done it.

"Annoying..." Leonel muttered. His mind was occupied by other things right now. He was still trying to thread a needle, and this bastard was obsessed with something he had done casually. For a moment, he almost wished that he had just given him the victory. But then he might have had to listen to the man's drivel.

"Your thinking is far too rigid. You're obsessed with bringing out the best qualities in both and making sure that they balance, when that's not necessary at all. The point isn't to create the purest treasure; purity is subjective and changes based on the observer. I'm sure there are some cultures who would lambast you for daring to think of touching a woman's hand before marriage, and others that will look down on you for not having a harem of them.

"Crafting is just a reflection of real life. When you start with three separate ores, purifying them to 100% and then trying to Craft with them is like pulling out a rubber band and extending it to infinity while expecting it not to snap.

"The Elastic Flash Ore has its own tendencies, as does the Sparking Rose Ore, and even though everyone just thinks of it as a foundation layer, so does Urbe Ore.

"Your job as a Crafter should have been to mute some of the clashing characteristics and let the others shine.

"The Elastic Flash Ore has a great ability to disperse attacks, forming tracks for Forces to run along. The Sparking Rose Ore is excellent at forcing the Forces to converge onto a single point, while amplifying it.

"The latter works more so with capillary action while the former relies on the principle of flowing from areas of higher concentration to lower.

"If you formed a network of them instead, alternating between whether they converge and where they diverge, taking advantage of their properties, muting them in certain locations and amplifying them in others, rather than forming a treasure that could only act defensively like yours, you could create one that could be used both offensively.
