Three Weapons

"Cesar got himself tangled up in a love affair!" Kolan said with an amused expression at an inn.

A piece of breaking news had sent the entire Yulan Continent into an uproar.

The Temple of the Goddess of Ice and Snow had issued a kill order for Cesar, offering a bounty of two billion gold coins to anyone who killed him.

It turned out Cesar had offended the Temple's Saintess, Rosalie.

The Temple of the Goddess of Ice and Snow held absolute control over the Eighteen Northern Duchies, and its Saintess reigned supreme!

Rosalie had only just entered the Saint Realm as a Water Element Saint Magus, yet she was the Temple's Saintess. Kolan had no idea how it had happened, but Cesar had somehow crossed paths with her.

Only the two of them knew what had happened between them.

After eating and drinking his fill, Kolan left the inn.

An hour later, Kolan arrived at a manor.

The manor covered a vast area and looked very grand. A plaque hung above the gate: The Haide Family!

"Haide, an old friend is here. Hurry out and greet me." Kolan sent a direct message to Haide with his divine sense.

Before long, Haide came out with his two sons.

Unlike Baruch, who had only one son, Haide had two.

The Four Ultimate Warriors carried the bloodlines of the Four Divine Beasts, and it was difficult for them to have descendants.

Apart from Haide, who had two sons, the other Ultimate Warriors each had only one.

Even though they had quite a few women, none of the others had borne them a child.

"Kolan, it's been a long time!" Haide said with a smile. "This is my eldest son, Marvin, and this is my youngest, Robert."

"You little rascals, hurry up and pay your respects! This is Kolan, the strongest man beneath the gods!" Haide said, patting his two sons on their tigerish heads.

"Greetings, Lord Kolan!" the two said respectfully.

Kolan looked at them. Both were ninth-rank warriors: one was at the peak of the ninth rank, while the other had only just reached it.

"I don't know what weapons you two use, so take these as gifts." Kolan turned his hand over and took two divine weapons—a saber and a sword—from his Space Ring. He had obtained both in the Necropolis of the Gods.

"Kolan, these are divine weapons! They're far too precious. You'd better put them away," Haide said in alarm.

Kolan waved a hand and smiled. "They're just greeting gifts for the youngsters."

Then he added, "If you feel bad about it, you can forge a few divine weapons for me."

"Forging divine weapons is incredibly difficult. Even if I had the skill, I don't have the materials," Haide said with a bitter smile.

Haide was not only the first-generation Violet Flame Warrior, but also the greatest master weaponsmith on the Yulan Continent.

The Haide Family ran a weapons shop, specializing in arms.

Many Saint Realm experts paid Haide a fortune to forge weapons for them.

A good weapon was very important to a Saint Realm expert and could greatly increase their strength.

Kolan smiled faintly and turned his hand over, producing a piece of Black Jade Stone and a pile of precious ores.

Then he asked with a grin, "What do you think? Are these materials enough to forge divine weapons?"

Haide's eyes lit up at the sight of the Black Jade Stone and the pile of precious ores.

As a master weaponsmith, nothing excited him more than good materials.

After all, good weapons could not be forged without good materials.

Black Jade Stone was incredibly dense and hard, making it the perfect material for forging divine weapons.

With these materials, Haide was quite confident he could forge divine weapons.

"Black Jade Stone! Such a huge piece! Where did you find it, Kolan? My goodness, the largest piece I'd ever seen before was only the size of a thumb," Haide exclaimed. "Just a trace of this Black Jade Stone could greatly improve a weapon's quality."

"If anyone else found out you had a piece of Black Jade Stone this big, they'd be green with envy."

Kolan smiled. "So, are you confident you can forge divine weapons?"

"I am!" Haide said with confidence.

"With such a large piece of Black Jade Stone and all these precious ores, I can forge a divine weapon. What kind of heavy weapon do you want?" Haide asked.

A weapon forged from that much Black Jade Stone and those precious ores would weigh at least twenty thousand pounds. Even for a Saint Realm expert, that would definitely count as a heavy weapon.

"Who said I only wanted one weapon?" Kolan said. He turned his hand over and took a magic beast hide scroll from his Space Ring. "I want three weapons made. I drew these myself. Take a look!"

He spread out the magic beast hide. Three weapons were drawn on it.

One was a sword, though it looked quite different from an ordinary sword and was much more elegant. It was one meter long, with a dragon carved into one side of the blade and a phoenix into the other.

One was a saber. It was curved, with a broad blade that tapered to a fine point, while the section near the hilt was slightly thicker. It looked elegant, and a White Tiger was carved into the blade.

The last was a Phoenix Wing Scythe Spear. It had a pointed spearhead, with two curved blades shaped like scythes beneath it. The weapon was over two meters long.

Kolan had drawn all three himself. They were his favorite weapons and suited him best.

None were heavy weapons. After all, Life Law and Death Rules were not best suited to physical attacks.

He thought the heavy swords and heavy sabers common on the Yulan Continent were too cumbersome and ugly.

The saber and sword in his Space Ring were both Highgod Artifacts, unsuitable for ordinary use. He kept them to catch his enemies off guard at critical moments.

Haide studied the drawings carefully.

After a long while, Haide nodded. "I can make them."

Kolan smiled at that.

After all, Haide was already the greatest master weaponsmith on the Yulan Continent.

If even Haide couldn't make them, no other weaponsmith could.

Kolan didn't cultivate the fire element and knew nothing about forging weapons.

If he tried to study weaponsmithing, he would have no idea how much time it would take.

"Kolan, stay here for a few days. I'll have to forge these three weapons myself. I doubt anyone else could make them, and they'll take quite a while," Haide said.

"Sure," Kolan replied with a nod.

After that, Haide began making arrangements for the forging.

He also had a room prepared for Kolan. The Haide Family's manor was enormous, so they cleared out a small courtyard in the rear for him.

That evening, Kolan brought out Saint Realm magic beast meat, and everyone ate and drank together.

Haide's two sons were thrilled. They had eaten magic beast meat before, but this was their first time trying meat from Saint Realm magic beasts.

Dragon meat from a Saint Realm Giant Dragon and bear paws from a Saint Realm bear!

They had never eaten anything like that before. They had never even had the chance.

After all, Saint Realm magic beasts were not to be trifled with. The two of them were ninth-rank warriors, and their transformations only brought them to the threshold of the Saint Realm. They were still no match for those beasts.

Kolan also met Haide's wife. Although Haide had more than twenty women, he had only one wife. She wasn't particularly pretty; in fact, she looked rather old.

Kolan couldn't quite understand why Haide had married her. By the time Haide had married, he must already have been in the Saint Realm. A Saint Realm expert could marry any kind of woman he wanted.
