Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 978 - Getting Everything Ready To Cast The Currency

Arthur watched them go towards Agnus while Sara stayed behind. "Won't you go with them?" he was puzzled by her confidence that he saw over the board.

"They'll be fine," she simply answered, "just wait and watch."

"…"

Arthur didn't trust her this much. After all, she didn't have enough time to teach them all the symbols. They also didn't have time to practice.

But when he went to see them working, he was surprised to see their efficiency. They worked like they were born to do that, like they trained for this for their entire life.

The surprise seemed obvious on his face that Sara even laughed at his look. "Told you, they are geniuses."

"I… Can see that!" he was shocked to see them doing the symbols right from the first attempt. He didn't know what magic Sara used to make them like this, but he was pleased to see such a result.

Agnus made the mold of the cold purple ore like the youths demanded. The mold contained many small concave spaces that could create many tiny balls.

And the kids kept writing small symbols all over it.

"I created a new mix of the symbols to use here," Sara said before elaborating further, "I made sure to make symbols resonating with the dragon symbol on your back. Like this anyone with such a symbol can unleash the hidden power in the coins."

"That's great," Arthur said in an honest tone, "but won't others imitate this tattoo later on?"

"They can't," she shook her head before pointing to the blood bottles scattered amidst the kids, "to make the tattoo work, it must be made by the blood I created. And you alone hold the privilege of such blood."

Arthur understood her meaning and nodded in satisfaction. It would be bad for him if he took all this trouble and his enemies managed to crack the way to activate the energy inside his coins.

However this way he was sure no one would do such a thing. After all the blood Sara created came from two different kinds of blood. And he was the sole person who could get such blood.

The only threat remained was for anyone to try and steal the blood from them. But he didn't worry himself too much about that. After all, for his enemies to cause enough trouble, they needed to produce such tattoos in mass numbers.

Using only a small amount of blood wouldn't help in any way. So Arthur stayed silent while watching Agnus working diligently with the youths.

On the other hand, everyone here was doing their best. The remaining kids up at the peak were making more cold purple ores. The workers at the ground were extracting more giant pieces of Gruben ore.

As for the blacksmiths Agnus brought, Arthur felt they weren't as special as Agnus. However they were doing just fine in cleansing the Gruben ore from all dirt and impurities while repeatedly melting and hammering it from time to time.

As for Deem and Gor, the two led a large army of workers to lay down the foundation of the city. Arthur was feeling great satisfaction from watching all this.

It looked like a bee hive where everything was smoothly going on and without any issues.

In less than an hour, everything was finally ready.

"We can start testing the process now," Agnus said to Arthur once the youths finished their part.

His mold for the Gruben ore was ready. His blacksmiths finished cleansing and preparing a large deal of Gruben ore. "It's time to smelt down the purple ore."

Arthur realized he was about to use his secret technique. But he knew it wasn't needed anymore. The previously dangerous purple ore turned to be the docile cold ore.

So wasting more time in doing unneeded technique wasn't required. Despite his eagerness to see that technique, Arthur decided to wait for another time.

"We don't need to use the secret technique of yours," Arthur stated before adding, "let's do it the normal way."

Agnus looked a bit hesitant but Arthur instantly activated his sword technique. Such action startled the poor blacksmith before Arthur smashed one piece of the cold purple ore that he just took out from a portal.

"Crack!"

The ore smashed into tiny pieces without causing any problems. "See? It's safe now."

"Amazing," Agnus seemed to see a thing or two through the cold purple ore. He grabbed a few pieces before closely examining them. "These symbols are working like magic! Can we use them in a blacksmith?"

He asked Arthur with eagerness. But the latter didn't have the answer to such a question. So Arthur turned towards Sara who grinned.

"Sure, why not? I'll leave behind a few of my beloved geniuses to teach you and your people how to draw and use the symbols."

"Thanks for your generosity, ma'am," Agnus bowed in sincerity while Arthur could only inwardly sigh.

Sara just boasted in front of this poor blacksmith, but the latter was thanking her in return.

"Bring my oven here," as everything was settled, Agnus shouted at his distant workers to go inside the garden world and bring his personal oven.

The moment his oven appeared, Arthur could tell how special it was. Apart from being made from a special kind of ore, the entire oven was covered in writings and drawings, giving the oven more strength to it.

Plus he saw a few runes bulging from the side of the oven. It seemed Agnus implanted them there while casting his oven to strengthen it or add fierce power to its making.

The workers also brought his anvil, his personal kit tool, in addition to a big group of fiery ores.

"Let's start," Agnus raised up his sleeves before starting to work over his oven. He was experienced and well adapted to use his oven despite its large size.

The first thing he did was to clean the oven from inside. He made sure nothing stayed there by using a special piece of fabric for that.

"This piece was tailored to me specifically to suit my needs," he explained before he started to ignite the fire.

It seemed like he was as much excited as Arthur and Sara by reaching this far.. After all, trial was only left to have the final product and give birth to the empire currency first batch ever made.
