Chapter 623: *The knowledge that the first Priests left us*
As Axel just accepted this deal, proud that his daughter wanted him to teach her how to wield a sword, Kevin’s anxiety immediately returned and he didn’t know what scared him the most.
If it was the fact that his little Willow was going to grow up much faster than any ordinary child, and that she might not need them anymore soon, or if it was just the fact that she had already planned to ask Axel to teach her how to wield a sword. Can’t she stay his baby girl just a little longer?
Axel then looked at him and said, stroking his hair, "You are worrying for nothing, babe. Our daughter will remain our baby girl even when she reaches her adult form, and it’s normal that she wants to learn to fight; it’s in the genes of all Legendary and Divine creatures. Don’t forget that we already promised her we would support her no matter what."
Kevin then looked at Willow, who asked him, wondering what her Daddies were talking about, "Did I say something wrong... Or can’t your system read the stats of my dagger?"
Kevin then finally relaxed because he was starting to make his daughter anxious by acting weird, and so he opened his System and read the stats of her dagger to her.
[ARTIFACT]
Divine grade dagger: +1,000 Strength points, +1,000 Agility points, +800 Stamina points, +2,000 Soul Force points, +500 Perception points. Even though this ore can’t be used to launch spells, you can concentrate any of the Spiritual or Divine energy inside its blade, and it will increase its power.
Since Kevin read aloud the stats of the dagger to Willow, everyone around the table heard it, and Colin then said, "Wow, these daggers are even cooler than I thought; maybe I will ask Connor to craft one for me too..."
Mykael then told him, "Don’t you dare ask him. It’s Elias and Miguel who will choose how to use this ore, like all the ore that we found while looting dungeons... We are not alone anymore, and they have to provide those who joined us with the best weapons we can so that they can get extra protection."
Colin then pouted, but his good mood returned immediately when he met Axel’s gaze, and he then exclaimed, "You are right; I don’t need this ore to get an ultra-powerful sword! All I have to do is ask my dear son-in-law to modify the one you have already given me so that it can become as powerful as yours."
Axel smiled at him then and said, as his father shook his head helplessly, "No problem; it won’t take me long to do it. I can even add the runic symbols to your blade just before we part. Then all you will have to do is send a large quantity of golden particles inside them to modify your sword’s power, and it will be done."
While Colin was delighted by this turn of events, as he said it more in a joking tone than anything else, and he never intended to bother Axel into actually modifying his sword, Kevin suddenly said to Willow, "Keep your daggers safe in our personal dimension while I make you some more appropriate clothes, and tonight I will start training you to use them, OK?"
Willow immediately made her daggers disappear because she didn’t want her daddy to change his mind, and then Kevin finally shared Sora’s idea with Mykael and Colin and asked them if they already knew of a world where this means of transportation existed, because before seeing Mykael give his daughter these daggers, that was what he had intended to ask them.
But they were all disappointed, since Mykael and Colin had never encountered this means of transportation before, and yet they had seen many different kinds.
As Colin wanted to help them, he asked Sora for more details on how she intended to use them and how far she wanted these portals to be able to take people.
As soon as Sora explained in more detail what she intended to set up, as it was an excellent idea, Colin then called on his Priest powers to see if the knowledge of the first Priests that he had access to thanks to his new powers could be useful to them.
When he found some interesting information about magic circles and how to power them with magic crystals and elemental ones, he conjured up a sort of black disc, and his eyes, which had become multicolored, shot laser beams towards this black disc.
When the transfer of the data he had managed to obtain was complete, his eyes regained their natural color, and he tossed the black disc to Sora, saying to her, "This is everything I could find out about magic circles and how to use magic crystals and elemental ones to power them. You will probably have to sort through all this information, but I’m sure you will find a way to make this means of transportation work; after all, it’s the knowledge that the first Priests left us."
Sora then looked at this black disc as it was the first time she was seeing one like that, and Mykael then told her, "It’s like a magic bag, but it is made to store our thoughts... You just have to send some of your energy into it to be able to connect to it, and then you can focus on the information you need the most, and it will appear in your mind."
Colin then told her, "Once you get used to it, you will love it; trust me!"
Sora widened her eyes as for her, this disc was way better than a magic bag... It was a way to store thoughts... That was incredible...
She then thanked them warmly and promised to work hard to make this means of transportation work. So, after they finished their lunch and everyone was ready, Axel kept his word and engraved the runic symbols needed on the blade of Colin’s sword for it to be able to evolve.
Then Miguel and Elias joined them to open a portal to Sora and Lena’s world.
