Chapter 795 Crafting Amene's Bow
She was a good slime daughter.
"Hanz and Law," Lawrend called the two slime brothers.
They flew forward as Eina flew back. They bowed to him. Lawrend stared at their bellies and found no magic within them.
"You two can\'t do it?" Lawrend asked.
"It\'s very hard to do, Father."
"Yes! Only Sister Eina can do it."
The two had tried to do it after Eina told them about it a few years ago. No matter how hard they tried, they never seemed to be able to do it. It would always cause them immense pain.
"Earth Mages too. Great. If all of you could become Heaven Mages, that would make me happy," Lawrend said.
Lawrend called out Courage, Zio, and Straw. They all turned out to be Earth Mages. Lawrend couldn\'t expect less from his children.
They all pleased him. He turned his head to Humility and nodded his head. She nodded back and left with Aezel.
"I will make Amene\'s bow. You can all leave," Lawrend replied.
He had put it off for so long. It was now the perfect moment to create the bow. It would be better now that he was a Heaven Mage.
He started taking out the materials from his storage ring. He started with the Eternal Tree Wood. It was a dark and moldy piece of wood.
It was a material piece that wouldn\'t seem to be valuable at first glance. Legend had it that it was a piece of the Eternal Tree. Unfortunately, no one was able to find out if that was true since no one had seen the Eternal Tree before.
Lawrend picked it up and lit the Divine Fire with his other hand. He controlled the Eternal Tree Wood with his spatial magic and kept it floating in the air. The heat burnt the oldened surface and revealed a young interior.
It was as if a disguise was taken off of the Eternal Tree Wood. It had beautiful whitish-brown lines that intertwined with each other in a complex pattern. It contained a significant amount of pure Plant Mana.
"Beautiful."
Lawrend took out another material.
The Tears of Lava is a rare liquid that would separate from the surface of a lava pool. It was like oil, but it was impossible to burn under normal circumstances.
Lawrend poured it out from the bottle and slathered it all over the surface of the Eternal Tree Wood. It greedily absorbed the oil, and a faint reddish shine covered its surface.
He took out another important material.
The Wood Eating Maggot Egg is an egg of an insect that eats wood during its larvae stage. It was an egg because the egg could be stored, while the larvae would easily die when put in a storage ring.
Lawrend placed put the leaf on the exposed Eternal Tree Wood. He sprinkled some pure water with his magic. This activated the eggs, and they quickly hatched into larvae.
These tiny little maggots quickly dug into the wood.
Lawrend turned serious at this stage. The Eternal Tree Wood was hard to shape unless it was done with these Wood Eating Maggots.
They started burrowing and eating without care. This was Lawrend\'s first time dealing with them. He had read some books about them.
He released a tiny shock, and these maggots changed direction. Lawrend repeatedly did this and controlled them to carve the wood into the shape of a bow.
It wasn\'t easy. The maggots grew bigger as they ate the wood, and the holes they made became bigger. Thus, Lawrend had to pay attention to that too.
It was a delicate process that Lawrend would be challenged to do if his soul wasn\'t powerful enough. Sometimes the maggots would randomly speed up, and if his reaction time wasn\'t fast enough, that might ruin the bow.
The only one that stayed there was Ramiela and Juju.
Ramiela stared at Juju, and Juju stared at Ramiela. Some sort of rivalry sparked between the two immediately.
Ramiela felt threatened because Aezel and Juju were both her polar opposites. She was an Angel, and they were a Fallen Angel and a Demon, respectively.
Meanwhile, Juju admired Lawrend\'s work. She had never seen a forging process like this before. It was unique and creative.
A few hours passed, and the process finished. The larvae were all spent, and they turned into brown cocoons stuck to the side of the bow.
With a wave of Lawrend\'s hand, they turned to ashes and disappeared.
He revealed a half-finished bow. It glimmered with a faint red with its smooth contours.
For the next part, Lawrend\'s face turned serious.
He took out the Elusive Deep Sea Vine. It was the one he bought from the bazaar with Ember. It was dried up and looked like a rotting vegetable.
Just like the Eternal Tree Wood, the appearance of this vine could easily fool anyone. It was not as precious, but it was elastic and durable beyond compare.
That is if it was properly prepared.
Lawrend took out several bottles of different colored liquids. Many of them emitted a faint smoke of mana. It was a testament to the magic put into these unknown liquids.
He also took out some rocks, a mortal and pestle, and some bones.
He first put the solid materials in the mortal and pestle and crushed them into a uniform powder. He poured a certain ratio of the different colored liquids into the mortal and pestle before mixing them.
It became a thick and smooth black paste.
"Perfect."
Lawrend was happy with the results. He was using the instructions he had read back in the library of the Undrasil Empire. Those were some really old books that seemed to be accurate by the results he got just now.
He grabbed the two-meter (6 feet) long Elusive Deep Sea Vine and covered it with the black paste using his hand.
He set it straight and waited for it to dry.
