Chapter 574: 574
'No, she can't . With her trust issues, she would stop believing in me . Put yourself in her shoes . Friya wouldn't know with who she has really interacted so far and she would be afraid that you are somehow manipulating me . She too is paranoid . Telling her is a liability . ' Lith said .
Solus sighed and said nothing more . Friya's level of craziness was dangerously similar to Lith's . She had chosen to establish a guild, yet she treated her companions as a means to an end and changed them more often than her socks .
Unless the opportunity presented itself, she would react badly to a revelation as big as Solus's existence was .
While waiting for Friya, Lith and Solus tried to sketch together all she could remember about the assassin's garb's pseudo core .
'Orion said that a gold alloy can't hold more than one incantation at a time, yet that garb had three of them . Maybe it used adamant instead of silver . ' He thought .
'My thoughts exactly . ' Solus forgot about her sense of isolation the moment they started to consider how to replicate the lost artifact . Ever since Ratpack's words had triggered her memory, her passion for magical research had become even stronger .
The more she learned, the more she could feel her lost memories scraping at a corner of her mind, like words she had never forgotten yet she was never able to express .
'A new armor would be the perfect recipient for all of our resources . Even if magically boosted, a cloth remains cloth . Adamant is one of Mogar's legendary metals . If we can combine the Skinwalker's properties with those of the garb, the durability lost due to mixing it with gold would be plenty balanced by its stealth properties .
'No one would recognize you as an Awakened anymore and by switching clothes at will you would always remain just a face in the crowd . '
'Agreed . The problem is that while I know the Skinwalker's pseudo core like the back of my hand, I've no idea how to infuse an object with Full Guard . I need to ask Orion if he's capable of doing it and if yes, I have to convince him to share the procedure with me .
'Something we can do as soon as the crisis is resolved, instead, is to take a second look at the fire I can produce while in my hybrid form . When it burned the layers of the assassin's garb, I realized that it can do much more than just destroy . ' Lith thought .
'I am eager to see what happens to an enchanted item if the flames aren't put out . What if they can drain a pseudo core completely? They could open doors, disrupt arrays, maybe even delete the imprint left by the item's owner . ' Lith thought .
'It's not so simple . I remember the Abomination who possessed the wargs calling them "Origin Flames" . I don't remember what they are, but something tells me they are very important . We must find out their real nature . '
Solus couldn't put her finger on it, but she felt that they shared a connection with the title 'Ruler of the Flames' her master Menadion mentioned in her memories .
Lith and Solus spent the time before breakfast drawing and visualizing the assassin's garb's pseudo core . Solus hadn't seen it from many angles, and to make matters worse, the distance had made the mana pathways appear like a blur to her .
