The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

She briefly caught up with Vina and the others using the Shudrom bow.

But the power gained by relying on external objects is ultimately only temporary.

In the previous battle of the capital, when Jessica and her companions were fighting the half-demons one-on-one, she could only cooperate with the paladins to wipe out the weakened half-demon apostles, and was completely unable to participate in the core battle.

While I wouldn't hold a grudge, I do feel a little regretful.

Of course, Anna was also aware of how much effort Viner and the others had put in to achieve their current strength.

“It wouldn’t work if someone else did it, but if you and I join forces, nothing is impossible,” Viner said confidently.

Anna stared into his eyes, as if trying to confirm the truth of his words, before finally letting out a relieved smile. "I'm already yours anyway, there's no point in lying to you anymore, so I'll just believe you for now."

"Then let's not just stand there like idiots, let's move all the materials in first."

While urging him on, Viner rolled up his sleeves, ready to get down to business.

Anna quickly came to her senses, and the two of them worked together to move the materials into the blacksmith's shop.

Once the ore was arranged neatly as required, Wiener lit the furnace.

"this is for you."

He handed Anna a metal box.

"How to do?"

"I'll only tell you that this thing is a quenching box; the rest is up to you to figure out."

However, Wiener decided to leave everything to his own devices.

“Golden sword, tempered…” Anna muttered to herself for a while, then suddenly seemed to realize something, a flash of understanding appearing in her eyes.

She began pouring gold coins into the tin box, her movements gradually becoming more decisive from hesitant.

Seeing that Anna was already in the zone, Viner smiled slightly and then went to attend to her own business.

He first selected a few pieces of ore and put them into the furnace to preheat. After the temperature reached a certain level, he carefully picked up the piece of Dawn Gold Sand.

Unlike them, Anna had not experienced countless battles and could not easily resist the corruption of the Demon Blood Soul on her will. Therefore, she needed other materials as the core of the Golden Sword, and Dawn Gold Sand was the target that Vener had chosen.

As time goes by, the ore that has been put into the furnace beforehand begins to soften slightly, and a flowing luster appears on its surface.

Wiener took out a forging hammer, removed the partially melted ore, and repeatedly hammered it on the anvil to remove impurities and shape it into a basic form.

When the ore was hammered into a regular blank, Wiener stopped what he was doing.

He took a deep breath, enveloping the golden sand of dawn in the scorching metal, and continued to swing the forging hammer, gradually fusing the two together.

Naturally, the process was facilitated by blood. A drop of bright red blood seeped from Vina's fingertip and merged into the sword embryo, infusing it with a trace of spirituality.

"Anna, are you done on your end?" Venere asked, turning her head as she finished forging the sword.

"No problem!"

Anna brought out the quenching box, which was filled with golden liquid; the extremely pure gold coins had now completely melted.

One dared to dream, and the other dared to act; using liquid gold as a quenching agent, the result was naturally a golden sword.

"very good."

Wiener nodded in satisfaction, and then immediately inserted the sword blank in his hand into it.

With a hiss, a golden shell quickly condensed on the sword blank, gleaming with an alluring luster.

Wiener drew the sword, waited for it to cool completely, and then raised the forging hammer again.

"boom!"

With the first hammer blow, the originally soft gold shell was instantly covered in cracks.

"boom!"

The second blow followed immediately, and the cracked outer shell gradually peeled off the sword.

"boom!"

When the final hammer fell, the golden sword finally revealed its full form.

"What do you mean by a golden sword? I think it's just false advertising."

Anna shook her head at the unassuming broadsword, her tone tinged with a hint of mockery.

Apart from the quenching process, no gold was used as a material throughout the entire process. Thus, this broadsword with zero gold content was given the name "Golden Sword" by Wiener.

"Is that really the case?" Viner smiled and handed her the sword. "Take it out in the sunlight and try it."

Anna took the longsword with some skepticism and stepped out of the blacksmith's shop.

When the first rays of sunlight fell on the sword, the originally dull blade suddenly burst forth with a dazzling golden radiance, as eye-catching as the first light of dawn.

Even more astonishing is that the color of this sword can continuously change.

From a warm golden yellow to a fiery orange-red, and then to a cool silver-white, the color of the sword changed several times in just a few seconds, as if the entire sword had its own breath and heartbeat.

Vena stood in the doorway, gazing at Anna bathed in light, and asked softly, "Do you still think it doesn't deserve the name 'Golden Sword'?"

Anna stared intently at the weapon in her hand, her eyes filled with delight.

"It's a good match, but it's a bit corny and doesn't sound very good."

“Then you can call it by another name,” Venere smiled slightly, “Giovanus.”

Chapter 693 What's meant to happen will happen.

The small blacksmith shop was clearly not big enough to accommodate everyone.

To be fair, everyone except Viña stayed at the Valentin Chamber of Commerce's hotel.

The order in which they accompany Vina is determined by drawing lots.

Tilisa folded the letter, put it in an elegant envelope, and gently pressed a wax seal onto the seal.

She didn't use any stamps during the process; she simply manipulated the temperature to shape the paraffin into the form she desired.

"Anna."

She called softly towards the door.

Soon, footsteps could be heard outside the door.

Anna pushed open the door and entered, seeing the letter in Tilissa's hand.

“Send this letter to Countess and Countess Faldwig through the Chamber of Commerce’s channels.” Tilissa handed over the letter.

When Anna heard about the destination and the time, she already guessed seven or eight parts of what it was about.

If all goes as expected, the envelope will contain an invitation.

“Leave it to me,” Anna said, taking the letter and then asking, “Should we let Venere know?”

“No need for that.” Tilissa waved her hand, a faint smile playing on her lips. “If he has any objections afterward, he can just ask me.”

Anna didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, and replied with her head down, "I understand, I will deliver it to them as quickly as possible."

She was about to leave after saying that, but before she could reach the door, she was stopped by Tilissa.

"Wait a moment."

Anna stopped and turned around: "Is there anything else?"

Tilisa slowly spoke: "Have you informed your father, Paris, about the wedding?"

Anna fell silent and did not answer, but her reaction spoke volumes.

Tilissa sighed softly, shook her head, and said with a tone that was both reproachful and concerned, "You young people are such a worry."

She reached out again, took another letter from the table, and threw it into Anna's arms.

"This letter is for your father. Since he's too embarrassed to ask, I'll have to do it for him. Paris certainly doesn't want to miss the most important moment in his daughter's life."

Anna took the letter, her fingertips trembling slightly.

She looked down at the two letters in her hand, quickly concealing her emotions. When she spoke again, she had already returned to her usual self: "Thank you, Sister Tilisa!"

Tilisa waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to be polite, "Go ahead, don't waste any time."

Anna stepped out, and the moment she closed the door, she ran out as if she couldn't wait to deliver the two letters.

After the footsteps outside the door had completely disappeared, Tissa walked to the window.

A cool breeze swept over her, ruffling her long hair.

The next moment, her body suddenly transformed into a sword light, slicing through the sky and heading straight for the blacksmith's shop.

Inside the blacksmith's shop, the clanging of forging metal was like an endless symphony.

Sweat streamed down Viner's face, but it did nothing to affect the rhythm of the hammer in his hand.

Inside the courtyard, Lisette sat on a wooden chair, holding the Dream Staff in her hand, carefully sensing the power contained within it.

"teacher."

Sensing the familiar presence, Lisette suddenly stood up and bowed to Tissa, who had transformed into a sword.

Tilisa nodded and then said, "I have already sent a letter to the Fadevi couple, inviting them to Lumiel Village."

This is why the news of the alliance between the three kingdoms after the Battle of the Royal City has been announced to the mainland. Otherwise, it would be no small matter for a powerful count from a vassal state to rashly step into the territory of a kingdom.

"The students are extremely grateful."

Upon hearing this news, Lisette's eyes immediately lit up with undisguised joy.

“Not only your parents, but also Anna’s father will be there,” Tilisa added.

“Those are things that Vena is considering,” Lisette said with a smile, covering her mouth.

As if sensing Tilissa's arrival, the noise in the blacksmith's shop suddenly ceased.

Viner came out and casually tossed a newly forged sword to Rikka, who was standing next to her. "I think I heard someone call me?"

"It's just an illusion."

Lisette and Tissa exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile.

Vena raised an eyebrow, then looked at the sword in Rikka's hand and introduced it to Tissalis: "You've come at the right time. I just finished forging a weapon for Rikka. With this 'Ruyi Divine Sword,' even Rikka can fight against the demons."

His tone was full of confidence, clearly indicating that he was very satisfied with his work.

Rikka swung her sword, the blade making a low hum as it sliced ​​through the air.

The next moment, a giant red and white puppet landed in front of everyone.

The summoning of the Demon King was so massive that a dazzling light burst forth instantly, accompanied by a deafening roar.

Even the ground outside the blacksmith's shop developed several cracks, as if it couldn't withstand the immense power.

Such a commotion could not be kept secret, and the attention of most of Lumiel Village was drawn to it.

"I didn't tell you to try it here!" Vena glared angrily at Rikka, looking at the blacksmith shop that had almost been flattened.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Rikka shrank back, put the sword back in her palm, and stopped the summoning ritual.

The majestic light wielder, who had just emerged from the light, quickly dissipated into the air, leaving only a faint lingering magical aura.

“This seems somewhat similar to the puppets Anna summoned with the Shudrom Bow,” Listy remarked thoughtfully as she observed from the side.
