Chapter 702 702 To Personalize

"That will have to do for now. Stephanie and I are both terrible at naming things, apparently, so we will go with your idea." Wolfe agreed.

The weapons were returned to the armoury after a mission, so there would be more of them returning over the next few days, but the new ones would go out first, and then Wolfe could work on the rest. If they were permanently assigned, it would be a bigger issue to swap them out, but it might actually be an opportunity for the Witches to increase security.

If they were assigned, he could let the witches pick their own password, and then the enemy would have to go through the whole process for every weapon that they captured. It would prevent a large-scale theft from becoming a serious threat, so Wolfe was prepared to mention it to the patrol group before they left.

But before he could, they were interrupted by the new head of the training detail, a Sylvan Coven Major named Lula, who had more requests for them.

"Oh, good, I found you. We were up training today, and we realized that with all the increased power of the demons and the Fae and the monsters we\'re fighting, we\'re still using the same equipment that we were months ago. I don\'t suppose that you could upgrade some weapons for us, could you?" She asked the moment that she entered.

"That was actually what I was here doing. The rifles didn\'t pack enough punch, so I was going to give them a Rank Four upgrade to their spells, which would allow the user to fire stronger single shots at the enemy. What did you have in mind?" Wolfe asked.

"The swords and spears. If we do them first, then we can distribute them to the troops, and they will have something to fall back on. The strongest monsters are either fast or sneaky, and there isn\'t a lot of time to shoot at them, so having a stronger melee weapon would be a great improvement for our safety.

The Demons aren\'t all that good at it, they didn\'t send any blacksmiths here to help maintain order, and the Fae think that it\'s cheating. But you\'ll help us out, right?" She replied.

That attitude really did suit the Fae. They were big on the natural order, and if you were weak, you were prey. Using outside power was cheating, unless it came from your family group, so the visitors wouldn\'t be willing to upgrade the weapons for the witches.

"Yeah, I\'ll help you get new weapons for everyone. But if they\'re going to come here to get their swords upgraded, then I should likely assign rifles at the same time. You see, we had an idea. If we set a password on the rifle\'s enchantments, then anyone who steals them can\'t use them. After they run out of the ammunition that is in them, they would be no more useful than a regular rifle.

Unless they can see the mana flows, they won\'t be able to see the actual inscriptions on the bullets, so I\'m not particularly concerned about that, but if they could activate a Rank Four explosion or Wind Blade spell on the rifle itself, using regular ammunition, it would be a real threat." Wolfe explained.

"Oh, that\'s a good point. The Rank Two bullets are only dangerous to our defensive spells in larger quantities. One wouldn\'t be enough to do much, but even a few hits at Rank Four would do some real damage.

Alright, we will send out the message for all the guards to come meet with you. Do you think that you could do my group\'s first, so we can get them done before we go to bed? The chaos of the festival really wears us out.

Not that there\'s a lot of violence, but we are responsible for dealing with all the issues with cutting in line for rides, lost children and Familiars, the perpetual arguments between the Fae and Demons blocking the pathways and so on."

"That\'s not a problem, I can do them pretty quickly once you\'re here. We just need to assign rifles. Or do you carry them in the city?" Wolfe asked.

"No, we have runners who are good with wind magic assigned to distribute them if there is an issue. Just carrying blades and spears in town is more than enough, since we ask that everyone else keep theirs put away and not carry them openly. Even the Wrath Demons complied and tied a ribbon around the hilt and over the scabbard to show that they haven\'t drawn their weapons." Lula replied.

The team leader carried a spear, while the others all carried short swords on their hips. They would all have the regular issue staves, but Wolfe wasn\'t going to mess with those today, as they were more of a symbol than a functional weapon. If you were going to be in close combat with monsters, then the metal weapons were the way to go.

He gestured for the spear, and took a good look at it, in case there were some hidden flaws or other issues, but it looked like it was never used, just carried around to remind everyone that she was a city guard.

The spell only took a second to upgrade, and then Wolfe passed the weapon back and gestured for another. One at a time wasn\'t the limit, but doing it this way made for a more reliable output, with no chance that the underlying blades or spells had been damaged. Nine swords later, they were finished, and ready to turn in for the morning before working the night shift again that evening.

"Let anyone else you meet know that I will be here for a while, waiting to do the upgrades. The faster they get here, the better."
