Chapter 851 Chapter 850: Upgrades People, Upgrades (2)
I watched as the Jackalkin approached me with an unusual gait, her back completely straight whilst her steps were evenly paced and rhythmic as she walked forwards, almost like she was marching.
Raising a brow at her antics, I held back a snort as she stopped in front of me and bowed at the waist, going almost an entire 90 degrees as she held up the bundle in her hands like an offering, the long, cloth bundle held out to me and waiting to be unveiled.
"I managed to complete it in time, my 'Goddess'~! Please, accept this lowly one's humble offering!"
Anput's voice was just as dramatic as her position was, something that made me all my eyes and shake my head as I looked down at her, though...
I had to admit that being able to trace out the muscles of her back from above and enjoying the defined curves of her body as she took on a submissive posture was... quite the sight for me, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't like the look of it.
And corsdering the way her tail swished side to side idly, she was having some fun with this too... probably because she was being a bad 'worshipper' as she stole glances at my hips and thighs, which just~ so happened to be level with where her head was.
Definitely not on purpose at all, no...
Perhaps I could convince her to role play with me as well... something about her worshipping me would probably get us both so~ into heat that we might just create a new pinnacle of sex for just the two of us, just like how Jahi and I had our own role play that satisfied us both on a primal level.
Anyways, I reached down and gently unfurled the cloth bundle, revealing the offering that laid beneath, which caused me to gasp as its beauty was revealed to the world.
It was the same shape as my current Khopesh, yes, but just like the same shirt can look so different and go from ugly to average to gorgeous with just a different shade, so too could a weapon... especially if the quality of materials changed as well.
The primary color was the deep, regal blue that almost seemed black in the shadows, looking like the depths of an ocean as it reflected the firelight back at us, giving it a colder appearance that suited me just perfectly.
However, like I said, it had a primary color and a secondary color; running through the deep oceanic blue in thin, yet bright waves was a soft, simple green, traveling up the Khopesh and breaking apart the blue in multiple different lines, meaning this wasn't just a normal alloy, but...
I reached down and lifted it up, bringing the blade closer to my face and inspecting the beautiful blue and green metal, before my eyes widened slightly as I noticed that the blade reacted quite well with both my Water AND my Wind Mana...
Sensing my confusion, Anput rose from her bow and smiled at me, her obsidian eyes filled with pride as she said "I brought some Wind attuned materials to tinker with when we set off, and I decided I should save them until I absolutely knew what I was going to do with them... and I found out what I was going to do just a few hours ago~! You noticed it already, right?!"
Anput's smile turned into an excited grin, and I blinked a few times as she leaned forwards and stared at me in anticipation, her tail wagging behind her faster and faster as she waited for me to say something.
"Yes, I did. It's both Water and Wind attuned, though not Ice attuned..."
She chuckled, shaking her head as she said "Well, I can't merge the two together just yet to create a compound element like Ice... not yet, anyways. But! This is already pretty good, isn't it? It has both the elements you need and use, and if you have a high enough control - which you do - this should be a nice bump to your Ice Magic, though only if its cast via this Khopesh as the medium. Isn't that awesome?!"
My laughter made her grin widen, and I reached forwards and ruffled her ears, staring at her warmly as I nodded and said "It's a wonderful gift, Anput. And..."
Spinning the blade in my hand, I grinned as I saw the large blue gemstone nuzzled into the bottom of the hilt, which made Anput smile wryly as we both stared at it, the Jackalkin whispering "I might have... snuck one of the gemstones already, yes... Sadly we don't have any Wind gemstones on hand, but this'll be another boost..."
I snorted at that, making her smile widen as I said "It's more than just a boost, Anput. This takes this from a really high quality melee weapon to something that I can actually turn into a pseudo staff via enchantments! The amount of mana inside this stone is enough to power a high quality spell on its own, and I already have a few ideas thanks to the dual element alloy you forged it with~!"
Her obsidian eyes shown with pride, before she looked at me from the side and licked her lips, her nose twitching as I took a step closer to her, letting her catch a whiff of the pheromones she had become addicted to.
"And of course, such a perfect, incredible upgrade to my current weapon, something made just~ for me by such an incredible, accomplished smith like yourself... obviously, you need to be rewarded for your work..."
Stepping in front of her, I reached forwards with my free hand and grabbed ahold of her butt, grinning at her as I saw her eyes widened in surprise, before she grinned back at me as I rested my brow against hers, whispering "And I think I know just~ the thing to reward a capable, talented woman like yourself... and maybe, just maybe, if you worship me like before, perhaps we can speak on further rewards..?"
