Chapter 1023: Chapter 502: Old Friends and Past Events (Part 2)

Elaphia wasn’t a god, capable of mastering everything, and she also knew little about forging equipment.

However, her cultivation allowed her to directly embody Excellence Realm weapons using Magic Power; compared to her, most artisans in the world were inferior, and those who could serve her were at the Divine Artisan Level.

But the metals stacked in this room were top-tier; the Blue Iron had a faint hue like rippling water, while the Purple Moon Steel was reminiscent of a luminous moonlight in the shadows.

"No need to seek materials elsewhere; this is enough to forge the finest of Tier Seven," Li Ang said.

"You may use the materials here as you wish. If you need rare materials, I can find them," Elaphia’s voice came from behind.

The blonde-haired young girl arrived at the entrance of the forging room, riding a floating Flying Blade.

"Nothing should be more rare than this."

Li Ang took out the Decaying Weapon he obtained last time in the Holy City. Its rusty exterior didn’t indicate anything special, but with just a touch of the Creation Formula, it could become the best weapon embodiment.

"Oh, might this be—"

"This is Weapon Possession, from the ruins of an ancient civilization."

Elaphia spoke proactively, explaining its origins along with Farlonio, Lily, and Diao.

Even now, the Divine King of the Deus People had encountered them, and their weapons and Creation Formula could all be connected.

Li Ang was somewhat surprised; previously, Elaphia had hidden the origins of Weapon Possession from Falo, but this time she disclosed it. The difference between the two situations was...

"The reason for revealing it this time is because that dragon is gone," the golden-haired girl said.

Her words caught Li Ang off guard, and Falo’s smile briefly froze.

"Ah, you indeed knew."

"You left without a word, your character drastically changed; I thought you were no longer yourself. But this time, you’re willing to help me, making me ponder on the hidden past that might exist," Elaphia said.

Does this sound like a story? Li Ang and the three others wore expressions of realization.

During a previous conversation at the Treasury, the exchange between these two Douding had already made Li Ang feel there was conflict or misunderstanding between them in the past.

Falo was silent for a while, then let out a long sigh.

She scratched her head, her face hanging with a slight, helpless smile.

"Now, I can say a few words."

The brown-haired Douding pointed to her mouth, opened it to the crowd, and lifted her tongue.

No explanation was needed, the crowd already saw under her tongue, at the tongue tie, there were several structures resembling Dragon Scale. When it was revealed, Li Ang, with his understanding of Power of Dragon, knew it was a Spell set by the dragon.

"Due to certain reasons, I signed a Contract with Dragon Lord Valarg. It granted me the power needed at the time of our meeting, and for a considerable time thereafter, and I, in turn, collected treasures for it."

Falo smiled bitterly, rubbing her hands: "This Spell is called ’Obedience Curse,’ which succinctly means not being able to speak words unfavorable to it or that reveal its identity. Now it’s far away, the curse’s influence is minimal, and I can oppose it to speak."

"Was that green Little Dragon Valarg previously?" Li Ang asked.

He hadn’t heard of what a Dragon Lord was, but certainly, its Format was inferior to the Six Dragons; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been intimidated into hiding.

"It was it, but also not entirely; it can be considered a type of projection of its power."

Falo bitterly smiled, taking out an Emerald full of fine cracks. Its internal Spirituality was completely depleted, losing its value; it was just a worthless stone that would shatter with a firm grip.

"Was it then that the contract was signed?" Elaphia asked Falo.

"Yes," nodded the brown-haired Douding.

"Indeed, after coming out from there, you..."

The golden-haired young girl closed her eyes and gently shook her head.

"What is it?" Liluliss, not very pleased with this unclear and perplexing situation, posed the question.

"It’s not our intent to conceal; this involves a past event that’s hard to explain briefly."

Elaphia gestured to those outside the forging room, and the two maids standing at the door bowed and left.

"Let’s set a simple tea meeting and slowly explain it to you, Li Ang."

As she spoke the last sentence, Aifei’s tone was very gentle, seemingly touching upon past events she wasn’t quite willing to confront.

Li Ang nodded softly to her, temporarily refraining from pressing further on the matter, and instead looked around, raising his right hand.

The Six Dragon Blessing Claw Mark on his arm released power, and the swirling azure windlight spread outward.

After a few breaths, a green Winged Cat manifested atop a heap of Mountain Copper Ingots glowing like gold.

"Why did you call me, meow? You meddler?"

Hearing the term "meddler," Elaphia slightly frowned.

Li Ang felt a bit amused; was this the result of conflicting attributes?

Actually, it wasn’t that bad; Annette was a typical female imp, but Aifei wasn’t of that attribute from the beginning; before gradually revealing her excellent character, the stereotypical impression was most like the high-and-mighty lady laughing "Ohoho."

In most situations, the attribute that made people care was more a nurturing, motherly one.

"I wanted to inquire about the so-called ’Dragon Lord.’"

"So aggressive? Where did a dragon come from claiming to be a Dragon Lord, meow."

Li Ang pointed to the Emerald in Falo’s hand, explaining the situation regarding the green Little Dragon with which she made a contract.

"The Dragon Lord’s power is quite peculiar; it can easily traverse the gaps between material and Magic Power Dimension, inherently greedy, um, similar to many Evil Dragons in stories. Normally, its true form seeks treasures everywhere, but it also uses gemstone projections to observe the present world," Falo further explained.
