Without any hesitation, one of the cksmiths added steel to the forge. He was sure that the forge was hot enough and that before any mold to make mana gems were added to the forage, that things needed to be tested. He was also very curious himself to see what the result would be.


    Meanwhile, Walker was feeling the odd bnce that came from the alchemy mes. He had not expected that the alchemy fire would reject the darkness elemental mes at first. But seeing that the alchemy fires were about singling out certain aspects of herbs and other beneficial things, it did make sense.


    This also could be applied to the light elemental mes though. Walker didn''t hesitate to control both forge furnaces while the cksmiths began to work. He saw that Alice and Rise had begun to provide the light elemental mana needed for him to work.


    The light elemental mes were easier to manipte because he was able to create the white mes from earlier. But when Remey''s alchemy fire was concerned, the white mes began to react violently as well.


    At that time it was clear that the reaction was done so because even the negative effects of things would be purified with the powerful light elemental mana. This was because most light elemental mana was used for purification of poisons, decay, and even undead. That meant that the alchemy fire, which could create poisons and negative solutions as byproducts, was being rejected by the white mes.


    "I thought so." The alchemy fire was a true neutral when anyone could think about it. They were made to be able to create both good and bad potions. Poisons would be considered bad because they could kill, however, some poisons were good in moderation and could actually heal. The healing and mana potions were naturally considered good, however, they could also be used in ways that caused someone to perish so they could be considered dangerous in that respect.


    The alchemy mes could be bnced though. If they were going to be used like this, Walker just had to make them bnce using natural mana. Even though the alchemy mes seemed to be a perfect m idle, the white mes and the dark mes were not. They were opposites.


    As he focused on bncing these things, the natural mana drifted around the forge causing a lot of the fire elemental mana to be stronger. The fire elemental spirits also seemed to have been rejuvenated. They had more ability to control the fire elemental mana and seemed to be growing their bodies while they assisted in the guiding of alchemy fire. Some of them even took on the alchemy fire as their own bing higher alchemy fire spirits which was a shock to Remey who had only seen her partner be an alchemy fire spirit beforeter bing the grand fire elemental spirit.


    The steel added to both of the forges was undergoing a drastic change. They were taking on traits from both the white mes and the dark mes. The alchemy fire seemed to be forcing them to be purer steel. Instead of the natural impurities that would be left through the forging process, Walker could see that they had melted out of the steel in to g at the bottom of the forge. The metals had taken on darker and lighter tints. The steel with the white mes was nearly white and the steel with the dark mes was nearly ck.


    ''Shining steel


    This is a material forged using a purification and addition forging method. The alchemy mes used to purify the material have released many of the impurities in the folded steel allowing for ces where more mana can be added. The white mes used gave this a natural purifying effect simr to silver. This causes the metal to have a better chance of purifying poisonous monsters, undead, and even curses.


    ''Pitch ck steel


    This steel has been purified using alchemy mes allowing it to be much denser. This allowsrger amounts of darkness mana to seep in to the steel and even change its coloration to match the essence of the mana within it. The darkness elemental mana can cause a decaying effect and the steel is the same. Any weapon made with this can release concentrated darkness elemental mana within what is attacked with it. Therefore, it will leave a decaying effect on them.''


    Since Walker could see this information with the all around appraisal skill, he did not hold back. He was sure to share it with everyone who could only look at him stunned. This was a process that must have been used somewhere but to the cksmiths on the ship, it was foreign. This drastic style of forging was never used by the dwarves to their knowledge. They were not normally alchemists by trade.


    The cksmiths could not resist making things with these metals. They were basically handed a holy grail to experiment with and immediately set out to start creating. They all saw and heard that the shining steel was ideal for creating armors. It resisted curses and poisons, what else would be best? They also heard and saw that the pitch ck steel was ideal for weapons that caused highsting damage to a foe. Their excitement could only grow.


    "Get the mana crystal shards. We will begin making mana gems. Make sure everyone has a mana potion. We have work to do!" The orders from Walker rang out strong. He was ready to get this working.


    Time fell away from their perception as everyone worked. Su was fighting the heat mentally while also being bombarded by the light and darkness elemental mana. The additional heat from alchemy mes just caused her to focus more on the state of her body. For her dragon blood, it was a perfect activator of her natural resistances.


    Midnight was somewhat the same. She had two royal dragons guiding her constant fire breathing. This was the best of the best training to use dark and light elemental me breath fluidly between one another. She would never have an issue switching from one to the other against because she had directly learned the perfect bnce of them within her body.


    Onyx was in his prime. The light elemental mana and the darkness elemental mana perfectly bnced within his body. He was able to train his absorption of both while also learning to endure heat. This was something newer for him but as he saw how hard everyone else worked, he decided to push his body and mind beyond what he normally would. It was a spectacr sight.


    Walker and Alice were in a simr state. They were learning about elemental mana flow through the mes. They could feel the resistances and strengths of each. It was a different experience for Alice in particr because she was not used to the fact that the light elemental mana would be pushed away from her by darkness elemental mana. Now she would be able to resist others'' influences on her skills.


    "This is too crazy." Gil had been running around the forge guiding the creation of harpoon arrows. He had also been designing a few bows that would use the metals he saw forged before his very eyes. They would be ideal for Mordants'' and Rise''s dragonkin warriors with archery proficiency.


    The idea was that the bows would be created from the steels before him to match what effects the arrows would have. The arrows would be made with the very same steel but carved with light and dark runes. The fusion of newly discovered origin runes and draconic runes would be the perfect mix to create power and quick mana absorption. It would also help the dragonkin in battle since they would not have as much natural mana saved up to fire the arrows sessively.


    But this was smallpared to the fusing of elemental manas, the fusing of mes. He was just focusing on the end products and how he could use them. He would even have unique mana gems to add to the bows after the molds were removed from the mes. The molds that were already showing differences from the usual mana gems.


    This was the result of the mana being absorbed. Other than the small amounts of natural mana that were absorbed, the darkness and light elemental mana were being absorbed in concentrated forms. This condensed mana was already powerful. So much so that mordant and Rise could feel it within the gems instantly. They were very happy with this result. They wanted to see the finished product immediately but understood that the cooling process would solidify the molten mana gem that would be a centerpiece in any of the things made with them. Any of the things they desired to have created for the gems specifically and their armorster.
