Chapter 164: How About Merging Orbs?

Chapter 164: How About Merging Orbs?

Why dont you try your hand anyway? Coin asked after Miles decided not to join the Grader Competition.

I cant win even in the stronghold. Quinn will definitely join. She was already at the peak of Grace-Rank when I first entered the stronghold, and she should have been awakening her energy by now, but because of her superpower being different, she couldnt advance easily.

But after achieving so, she would have bigger energy storage and better foothold in Form-Rank. Miles answered with a shake of the head.

Quinn was too strong. Although she hadnt shown her hand while fighting against the gargoyle monster when they jointly hunt with Tian Ling and Mihr Orril, because she was just there to fill the numbers, if she were to fight seriously, she would be the biggest threat among all of them.

You are missing a point. Coin rebuked.

What do you mean? What am I missing? Miles asked, confused.

You already started to forge your own weapons. When will you try merging orbs? Coin then reminded Miles. Yes! How did I forget that? If I were to merge orbs, my powers would be a lot stronger.

But I still dont have confidence. Although the text mentioned merging, it was just in passing, and I dont know if I am able to do it that easily. Miles answered.

According to the text, orbs like monster cores could be melted. The way to self-destruct orbs and melting them were quite similar. The volatile electrical energy loaded to the orb, kinda made the orb overload and explode.

In a sense, the over melted orb would explode. Of course, the other reason was, orbs were mostly not compatible with the electrical energy, thus dissonant orb would reject the element and energy would make it go wild.

After seeing the crafting interpretation I did compute that Elemental Minerals are also able to melt the orbs, but I am not sure of my idea either. After all, it should have been tested before, right? I asked.

In the text, the crafting segment was explaining the usage of the Elemental Minerals. Not by stressing the name of it but by mentioning vaguely. But merging orbs didnt have any mention at all.

It should be safe. If push comes to shove, you should be able to run with your life intact. Coin joked. This was Miless answer whenever he wanted to do something dangerous and stupid.

You are right. But for this, I cannot use the workstation at home. Miles thought.

What do you have in mind? Coin pondered. Miles had just spent all his savings on crafting a handful of arrows. He didnt think Miles would have more money to buy a second one, more expensive on top of that.

I think I will borrow one. Miles smiled and kept on walking. He was at the train station not long after. When he arrived at his destination, Coin understood what he meant.

Wouldnt that cause problems for you? Coin asked.

Only if I fail, Miles smirked and walked into the building by showing his wristwatch.

Welcome, sir! The soldier saluted him and reported, General, Major General, and Lady left an hour ago, sir. Yes, Miles arrived at the headquarters to borrow his mothers workstation. After all, Evelyn was a grandmistress craftswoman.

Hmm, it is fine. I am here to fetch something for my mom. Miles nodded and walked in. His wristwatch could open almost any door in the headquarters, and he intended to use it to its best. He walked to the laboratory and stood in front of Evelyns workstation. Do you want me to hack it? Coin asked. If Miles were to open the door, it would notify Evelyn immediately.

It is fine. Miles shook his hand and opened the door. Not after a few seconds, his wristwatch received a call. Answering the video call Miles greeted Evelyn with a smile, Hello gorgeous, it took you longer than I thought. Miles cheekily said.

Just wanted to make sure it was you. What do you have in mind? Evelyn asked without any sign of irritation on her face. Anything in the lab was her, therefore his familys. If he wanted to enter and take a look around or take something, she wouldnt mind. But she would, at least, like to know.

Just wanted to try crafting. I already concoct a batch and am getting used to it, but unfortunately, I dont have a place to use at the moment, so I wanted to use yours. Miles answered half truthfully.

Who is melting the cores for you? Evelyn asked suspiciously. Miles was still fine, but if anyone else was in the lab without her, she wouldnt be comfortable. Not because she would mind them using the lab, but because suspecting the other person is threatening or swindling his baby boy.

No one mom. I am just using regular metals at the moment and dont add monster cores. So, even though weak, I can practice my forging. Miles lied through his teeth this time. He couldnt reveal many things, not for the sake of keeping them secret but to protect himself. Not even to his mother, not while Mother AI was confident of hers and her brothers. That was the reason why he still hasn't revealed that he discovered the Endless Mountain in G-Circle.

It is not that practical to work on coreless creations, sweetheart. Keep that in mind that adding monster cores makes alloys much stronger because it is the element merging metals of two worlds perfectly. Although without a core the concoction is less likely to explode, it will give you more experience. Evelyn advised Miles, then let him be. He thanked and walked towards the cut edge workstation.
