Here, we had to bring up the Azure Ghost Essence's status panel again—
[Damaged Azure Ghost Essence] [Quality: Common] [Effect: Directly infuse Spiritual Power. When used on a designated weapon or item, adds a "Weak Knockback Resistance Effect."] [—The damaged Azure Ghost Essence seemed to have been hacked apart by some kind of blade.]
The Azure Ghost Essence's effect did look pretty good. It could let him pursue his dream of parrying attacks.
However, Uesugi Tetsu believed that in most situations, this weak effect might make his movements less smooth when blocking with a blade, causing him to suffer even more severe damage.
"Mr. Brahma, this Spirit of Congyuanhuo is easy enough to deal with."
Zashiki placed the dim, damaged Azure Ghost Essence before her and examined it carefully. "But this Azure Ghost Essence... It should be an Azure Ghost Essence, right? It doesn't seem very compatible with this Kaga Kiyomitsu Replica."
"Zashiki, you know so much?"
Uesugi Tetsu was slightly startled. He had just been about to introduce the two essences.
"This is all basic knowledge. Most demons, Supernatural Phenomena, and famous people, as well as their weapons, armor, accessories, and the types of tools from every era..."
Once the topic turned to blacksmithing, Zashiki seemed to become a completely different person. She spread her hands boldly. "Before I memorized all of this, my master wouldn't let me leave the house."
"More importantly, Mr. Brahma."
"—Has your Kaga Kiyomitsu become stronger?"
The girl's nostrils flared twice as she caught a faint, complicated scent of blood. "Is it because you slew so many demons? If it's convenient, could you tell me about its current condition?"
He had not expected Zashiki to notice even this. Her blacksmithing skill must be very high.
*Not judging her by her appearance really
