As soon as Karl thought that he should step away from the table, flames flickered in the air above the blade, and the customer appeared in the room with a shocked look.
"You did it? You did." He announced, clearly shocked to his core.
"The amount of power needed for that was immense. But it is done, what do you think?"
The man casually picked up the massive blade in one hand.
"Internal damage, inertia increase and transfer, an impressive damage increase, speed increase, user agility, a lovely poem. Then what is this? A Soul Bonded growing blade, and the Ghost Fire Body?
Monarch, you have really outdone yourself. If I had known that you could create a true artifact of this level, I would have brought you a better blade to work with."
Karl stared at him, unable to form a proper response.
A better blade? What did he mean by that? Was it even possible to find a blade of higher quality than this that hadn't already been enhanced? @@@@
A portal opened, and through it stepped a small dragon with an aura so oppressive that it drove everyone in the room but Karl and the customer to their knees.
He transformed into a large dragonkin, his head nearly reaching the ceiling of the room, then the customer handed him the blade.
"What do you think, your Majesty? Is it suitable for your challenge? I told you that I found a real Runecrafter." The customer asked.
The dragon hummed happily, a noise that shook the building and activated the barriers.
"Yes, this is beautiful. Excellent work, butler. Now, I must return to my studies." The dragon agreed, before stepping back through the portal.
Karl raised a hand in greeting. "It's all fine, Governor. Well, it is now. There were some inadvertent injuries when the dragon appeared, but he wasn't openly hostile."
The Demon sighed in relief. "If you have a moment, we need all the details. Entering the city is prohibited to all creatures over Totem Rank unless they have a pass from the Lord."
Karl gave the Governor the details of the strange customer, and the Divine Fire Dragon that had entered through the portal when he came to collect his order, though he didn't actually say what the man had ordered. The Governor was already aware of Karl's Runecrafting, so he could infer that the custom order was something along those lines without knowing exactly what was made.
Especially as it appeared that the weapon had left the country.
The way that the guards in the retinue had breathed a sigh of relief when Karl had mentioned that it was a juvenile Divine Fire Dragon suggested that they were unlikely to see it again, anyhow. Governor Shin finished taking notes, then gave Karl an apologetic look. "I do hope that there were no serious injuries, but there isn't much we can do when the Royal Dragons decide on a whim to drop in somewhere. Just their presence is enough to cause massive issues for a city like ours, it is fortunate that your barriers held the phenomenon within your compound.
If there was no structural damage, then I will return to my duties."
Karl shook his head. "It didn't break the barriers, so the house should be fine. Thank you for your concern."
He turned and left with his guards, and Karl saw that Rae gave Madam Shin a thumbs up gesture as the Demon turned to look at the workshop.
They had been working hard all day, and with the speed of the three of them, they were already nearly done with the engraving of the armour plates.
Then Karl would have to add Runes before they could be delivered.
But if they weren't flooded with customers or subject to any other surprise visitors that delayed things, it should only be another day or two, and they would have the armour set ready to be delivered to the Governor.
Having the anniversary present in hand well in advance would be a relief for anyone, and Karl was certain that was extra true for people in prominent political positions.
Remi restocked the potions that they had sold that day, while Davis rearranged the stock in the other cases to show off what they had available.
They still had plenty, but Karl needed to get to work making more jewellery from the stock of blanks that Loros had provided during the battle at the docks. They were selling more quickly than expected, and he had only provided a few of them for the first few days' business.
