Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis appeared in another gigantic forge, this one even larger than the previous one. He didn't even know what half the equipment did. Yet, knowing the equipment was not necessary to him. After all, he didn't need any kind of equipment.

Yet, instead of one person, Gravis saw ten. One of them was the supervisor, while another person was the young man from his earlier evaluation, who just waved at Gravis with a smile. He probably also wanted to watch.

"This better be worth it," one of the people transmitted to the young man. "You disturbed my cultivation because of this."

"Trust me. This will so be worth it," the young man transmitted back.

A middle-aged woman stepped forward and gave Gravis the beast blood and ore. "This is the client," she said as she gestured to a young woman, which seemed to be rather nervous.

Gravis took the ore and beast blood and noticed many things about the young woman just based on the materials. The materials were light and flexible. This kind of material would be perfect for a rapier or a very thin sword.

Usually, Gravis would have expected this person to have the wind element, but he didn't want to jump to conclusions yet. The elements exhibited different properties the more powerful one became. Light, for example, could also make use of this kind of weapon.

"Nice to meet you," the young woman said. "So, you will forge my bow?"

'A bow, huh?' Gravis thought. 'I've never seen anyone fight with a bow before. I've also never created a bow.'

"Yes, I will create your bow, but I want to do some tests first to see what you prefer. Is that okay with you?" he asked politely.

"Sure," the young woman said with a smile. "What do you need?"

Gravis summoned the materials over and already heated them. "I'm going to make a bow and ask you for your feedback. No worries, this will take only a short amount of time. We should be done in, at most, two hours or so."

The young woman was a bit nervous when she saw her materials being used to create a new weapon. She wanted a World Weapon, but this forger was using her materials to ask for feedback.

Gravis saw the young woman's expression and guessed what she thought. After some seconds, the first bow was done. "Don't worry," he said. "None of your materials will go to waste. Here, look," he said as he pointed at the finished bow.

In a matter of seconds, the components melted down again, creating the same pile of materials as before.

When the young woman saw that, she released a sigh of relief. As long as her materials didn't go to waste, she was fine with it.
