She was completely clueless about all of this; she didn't understand anything!

Although she wanted to spend a little more time with William, it was perfect for her to talk about business first.

Besides, discussing business could calm her restless heart a little.

If William were to ask her some personal questions directly, she would really explode.

"Well, if you're wondering what materials this weapon is made of, I'm not entirely sure either!"

All I know is that this weapon was born and resided within the stars.

"The weapons of almost all gods are roughly the same!"

"What's the difference between these divine weapons and the divine weapons that the forging gods truly crafted with divine power?"

William kept asking questions like a curious child.

This is not surprising, though; his curiosity about the unknown is what has kept him going all this way.

Otherwise, he could just stay in the Irregular at Magic High School World, enjoying power and reaching the pinnacle of life as the eldest son of the Kudo Family.

"That's what I wanted to continue!"

Artemis's eyes crinkled into crescents, and she smiled radiantly.

She was clearly quite satisfied with their current somewhat bland way of interacting.

William didn't interrupt, but simply watched the lake quietly, waiting for Artemis to continue her story.

"From a usability standpoint, the weapons crafted by the forging gods are no different from naturally occurring divine artifacts."

"Because there's no significant difference between the two in terms of either sturdiness or sharpness."

At this point, Artemis paused abruptly, then continued.

"The biggest difference between the two is the presence or absence of the concept!"

"Does the concept exist?"

William repeated the phrase, but still didn't understand its meaning.

Although the Loki Familia's library contains a comprehensive collection of books, most of them deal with events in the mortal realm.

The records about the gods of the upper realm are not very detailed, let alone the concepts they represent.

"That's right, the existence or non-existence of the concept!"

Let me give you a simpler explanation!

"For example, the concept of 'Orion's Arrow' means that Piercing of All Things!"

Hearing this, William began to understand Artemis's meaning.

At this moment, the fire in his heart burned even brighter. If it was really as he imagined, then he had truly gotten a super bargain this time!

Artemis naturally saw the look of understanding on William's face, and silently sighed in her heart, "As expected of her Orion," before continuing to explain to William.

The meaning of "Piercing of All Things" is, in the simplest terms, that as long as you shoot the "Orion's Arrow," it will surely pierce the body of its target!

"The target will have absolutely no chance to dodge the moment it is fired!"

"Unless he can withstand the divine spear with his own body, which is basically impossible!"

"Furthermore, he possesses the ability to resurrect, which is unavoidable!"

"This is the conceptual ability of a naturally divine weapon; the moment you fire it, the concept of guaranteed hit is already bestowed upon your enemy!"

At this point, William had fully understood the power of the divine artifact.

He had even deduced why his divine weapon possessed the principle of being able to penetrate all things.

There are many versions of the love-hate relationship between Artemis and Orion.

However, among the many versions, only one version shows that Orion and Artemis were in love with each other.

Even in this version, Orion still cannot escape being killed by an arrow.

The story here is about Orion and Artemis falling in love, but this love displeases Apollo.

So Apollo lured Artemis to the seashore while Orion was swimming in the sea.

He pointed to the black dot on the sea and provoked Artemis with words, saying that she would definitely miss the black dot.

Artemis, the Goddess of the Hunt, was naturally furious and immediately drew her bow and arrow, hitting the black dot accurately.

Artemis later learned that she had shot her lover, and she was devastated. Orion was thus elevated to the stars and became the Orion Constellation.

The spear William is holding is the same arrow that Artemis shot at Orion.

This arrow was also materialized because of Artemis's promise when she shot it that it would hit its mark.

"Are you thinking about something?"

Artemis looked at William, who had suddenly fallen into thought as she spoke, and asked him a question.

"Nothing!!"

"I was just wondering if the upper realm would also develop such concepts because of the myths created by people in the lower realm!"

As mentioned before, the gods are actually spirits born of nature.

The myths known to the people of the lower realm are all woven by the people themselves and have no connection whatsoever with the gods.

"Now it's my guess!"

Artemis chuckled softly and blinked her bright, large eyes.

"Actually, the gap between us gods and you humans isn't that big!"

"Before you people of the lower realms wove myths, we had no names."

"Everyone is named after the most famous authority they hold!"

"It wasn't until the myths you created became widely known that we had names and the concept of a pantheon."

"Therefore, the myths you've woven can be used to bless us!"

Hearing this, William frowned and asked, somewhat puzzled.
