Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 20 Shocking The Master

?William first used his spirit power to ignite fire. As the fire raged on, he went to the large number of materials he took out of his bag.

He started to organise them first. He placed the clay on one side, the candles on another. As for the red ores, he placed them into two groups, one had seven kilos and the other got three.

Ellina made a bet with herself. She betted that William wouldn't last inside more than five minutes. Even if he had some forging knowledge like he claimed, he would never be able to survive the blast of the scarlet vibrant ores.

She even prepared herself to intervene once he faced any danger. No matter what, a porter or a disciple, he was a human being in her eyes.

But unlike what she expected, the first item William picked to use was the clay.

The clay looked like a giant piece of blue slime. Despite having a soft and tender body, its weight was still there. The ten kilos took a space of only three metres square, not too much to be honest compared with the clay's tender looks.

He simply used bare hands to cut a piece of it. The clay easily followed his hands movement and then he went towards a big pot made of special alloy and placed it inside.

"Do you have ready moulds here? For arrowheads?" William asked while putting the pot carefully over the raging fire.

"Here," with a wave of her hand, a one metre square mould appeared in front of William's eyes. It was made of special alloy that could withstand the high temperature of the melted ores. And it contained hundreds of spaces to form arrowheads.

William checked the spaces and inwardly admired them. Each space was in the shape of a diamond, making the arrow heads slightly tapering at their ends. This wouldn't only give the arrows more penetrative powers, but also would help in increasing their flying speed and momentum as well.

"It's my personal mould for making arrowheads," Ellina noticed the admiring gaze of William and couldn't help but boast, "can your master have something good like this?"

"My master? Humph, she is much more skilled than you may even think," despite admiring Ellina's craftsmanship, William knew if he had time, he would create a far better mould than that.

Of course, he wasn't totally lying about his master, he really had a master in his past life.

"Let's see what that master of yours taught you then," Ellina took the insult harshly as she glared back at William.

The latter didn't speak again and simply placed the mould aside for now. He then waited for the clay to melt.

The Homos clay was a famous material used in alchemy, but no one ever tried to melt it using direct fire like he was doing right now. Adding the clay to any recipe would help in refining its grade in a better way.

But when faced with fire, not only it would melt fast, but some impurities inside would also be burnt away. The simply looking blue clay turned in a span of one minute into a sparkling blue liquid, even attracting the attention of Ellina.

To her surprise, the first simple action of William was something she had never heard about before. And that realisation made her frown inside and seriously question herself about what he claimed earlier.

"It's ready," as the clay turned into such a state, William carefully took the pot out of fire and placed it carefully over the specially designed table. Then he grabbed his scarlet vibrant ores and placed them one by one over the table in swift moves.

Ellina wanted to stop him out of her innate fear, but William moved really fast. In a blink of an eye, he managed to arrange tens of such ores on the table. Then he grabbed the pot and poured its content slowly over them.

*Sizzle!*

Like water poured on fire, the clay once touched the ores emitted a loud sizzling sound. It wasn't only this, but it also emitted strange dazzling blue light before the amount he poured started to slowly disappear.

The scarlet vibrant ores absorbed all the liquid and slowly turned into dim scarlet ores. The earlier sparkling red light seemed to lose much of its vibrancy under the effect of the Homos clay.

And that was the secret William knew about the clay. The clay didn't have any upgrade abilities as alchemists mistook it for, it had a controlling effect that rivalled many other top materials that William couldn't possibly get for now.

The scarlet vibrant ores main issue was their uncontrollable intense inner energy. Once stirred by a stimulus, the ores would instantly explode, and their energy would grow out of control.

By using the controlling feature of the clay, William forced such berserk energy to be stored within and turn into docile form. And that was his first step in handling these ores.

Ellina wasn't a normal forging master. Inside the entire department, she was considered in the top five. Her senses were so keen, and she had rich experience in forging.

The subtle effects of ores instigated by the clay didn't escape her eyes, making her open her mouth agape without feeling it.

She was shocked, shocked beyond description. What she was seeing in front of her eyes right now was least considered a miracle in the world of forging!

Didn't everyone know about the rich energy stored within the scarlet vibrant ores? Any forging master would dream about finding a way to control such a berserk energy and tame it under his control.

But throughout the long history of forging in the spirit master world, not a single one ever succeeded to do so per her knowledge. And now that little porter in front of her, the one who simply appeared out of nowhere, just managed to do so! Simply like he was eating a meal.

Once she controlled her shock, William managed to finish handling a large amount of scarlet vibrant ore. He next put another piece of clay on fire and started to pack the handled ores on one side.

She wanted to speak and ask. At this moment, there were tons of questions raging wild inside her mind. But seeing how concentrated William was working, she refrained from doing so for now.
