I became a legion lich

192 Set names

“I used up all the adamant and I’m not allowed to use leftover dragon scales for anything other than the master, but if you don’t mind something made with death iron and monster bones to improve its quality, I can have your equipment ready in a few days.’ Dwarvin informed her with a respectful nod.

Emília had been respectful, unlike Treevor who discredited her work and put all the credit on the materials used, so Dwarvin was honored to create her personal equipment.

“If you’re done talking, I want to test my equipment soon.” Athos spoke and didn’t wait another second, removing the mannequin’s armor and putting it on. As expected from a custom-made outfit, it fit like a glove.

“How I am?” Athos asked after putting on his armor, opening his visor to see perfectly. The T-shaped visor made peripheral vision a little difficult, but that was the only problem Athos found with the armor. His armor was unusually light, despite adamant being a heavy metal.

“You look just like the mannequin, only whiter.” Treevor said with a shrug and turned to Dwarvin. “What is your masterpiece capable of doing?”

“In addition to barrier enchantments and kinetic energy absorption, I’ve also added magic dispersion to cover weakness to magic and an enchantment that lowers armor weight as passive enchantments. Adamant is a heavy metal, after all.” Dwarvin explained.

“I also runesmith the leather on the inside, master. Try to activate the enchantments into the leather, I’m sure it will be a pleasant surprise.” Dwarvin spoke cryptically.

“Okay, I’ll-” Athos spoke and activated the enchantments on the leather, gasping in shock at the result. Suddenly he was able to feel all of his surroundings perfectly and his mind was clear, his thoughts much faster than usual.

“Is this the sensory field and cold mind?” Athos asked in shock, realizing that his signature abilities were imbued in the armor.

.....

“Exactly! Do you remember the first time I called you to consult and asked about the skills and spells the master usually uses? So I turned some of your skills into enchantments and runesmithing. Not bad, isn’t it?” Dwarvin explained his trick, but Treevor cut him off in shock.

“Wait, how did you do that? Figuring out the right runes to turn a skill into an enchantment must take days of work to find the right combination. How do you do that in such a short amount of time?” Treevor asked in disbelief, unable to understand the dwarf’s technique.

“Please, we dwarves aren’t called the father of the runesmith for nothing. We don’t need to waste time trying out so many runes until we find the right patterns. Dwarves have an innate understanding of runesmithing and we can figure out the runes needed for a spell or skill just with a look.” Dwarvin pointed to his own empty sockets to emphasize his point.

“Is a single look enough? It really is an amazing skill.” Unlike Treevor, Athos didn’t feel jealous of the skill and focused on the equipment. “What are those encrusted crystals?”

“I’m glad you asked! Those are crystal horn rhinoceros horns. We don’t have magic stones, so I used them as a substitute to increase the amount of energy in the metals and power the passive enchantments. The master may not know this, But rhinoceros horns store large amounts of world energy and are very similar to magic stones.”

“I’ve only managed to runesmithing so many enchantments thanks to these crystals.” Dwarvin scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, blaming himself for his lack of skill.

“If horns are similar to magic stones, then we have an infinite magic stone farm?” Emilia asked hopefully, but Dwarvin laughed at the idea.

“It’s not that simple. It takes years for crystals to form, so the venture won’t be that profitable. Of course it’s still better than waiting decades for them to form naturally in magic stone mines, so some villages create them as cattle.”

“You guys are losing focus again.” Athos spoke to get their attention again. “I already understand the armor enchantments, but what about the shield and sword?” He picked up the weapons and realized they were light as was the armor.

“Both have weight decrease enchantments, but the shield also absorbs kinetic energy and so does your meteor charge skill. I have to say that this skill was the hardest to runesmithing, master.” Dwarvin began to complain.

“This ability is incredibly complex. It mixes not only abilities with magic, it also uses two different elements. I wanted to add other enchantments, but the most I could add was return, which returns the shield to your hand.

“You need to feed the return enchantment before casting the shield for it to work, don’t forget that.” Dwarvin instructed before moving on to the sword.

“This sword was made with dragon fangs and saber-toothed tigers, so its blade can cut magic just like a dragon’s fangs, in addition to vibrating at high speed to improve cutting and being able to release blades of black aura.”

“Dragon fangs can cut spells?” Athos asked in doubt.

“No, but all parts of a dragon are filled with mana and energy can affect energy. Normally you would have to empower the sword with your mana, but this sword cuts energy without that need.” Dwarvin said.

Athos fed the sword with mana and touched the sword’s blade, feeling it vibrate slightly. He swung the sword a few times to test the weapon’s weight and balance, before smiling in satisfaction.

‘So my ancient sword was enchanted with saber-toothed tiger fangs.’ A sudden thought crossed his mind, remembering the first enchanted weapon he received from Khali.

“The weapon is incredible. I can’t wait to test its power on any group of monsters that try to invade the camp. Incredible work, Dwarvin.” Athos spoke and thanked Dwarvin for the excellent equipment.

“Don’t thank me, master. Everything we own belongs to you, don’t forget that.” Dwarvin was glad of the thanks, but kept his composure.

“Master, one last thing. The different enchantments on weapons are connected and you can get different effects from it, but you need to activate several enchantments at the same time to do that.” Dwarvin explained seriously to avoid future mistakes.

“I created your weapons so that the shield and sword are connected to the armor and you can mix effects from all of them, but you need to have them on hand.” Dwarvin explained, but Athos’ mind was already elsewhere.

‘If what he says is true, then the possibilities are even greater than I thought. Not only was the power of the entire set much greater, but I should be able to further increase its power using my shared blessing spell and with the correct potions.’ Athos thought as his smile only grew.

Athos remembered the spell that allowed him to share the effect of potions or skills with other objects or artifacts, in exchange for a reduction in duration time or increase in mana consumption respectively.

If he added his own abilities and those of his magic organ, Athos could achieve absurdities effects.

“Have you named this set yet?” Athos asked.

“I haven’t decided yet. I was hoping the master could do the honors.” Dwarvin shook his head and asked Athos to name it.

“Hmm...” Athos began to think seriously, feeling that his weapons deserved a mighty name befitting their power. Athos felt jealous of Dwarvin who was able to think of a shared curse quickly.

He discarded several names that sounded simple or shameful like skely sword.

“I think the sword could be called dragontusk, while bonesaw for shield.” Athos muttered aloud, but the armor was the problem. He had no idea what a suitable name for an armor would be, so he asked for help.

“Any suggestions for armor?” He asked Treevor and Emilia, as Dwarvin didn’t intend to get involved.

“Just add Death or corrupted like you did with metals.” Treevor spoke disinterestedly, but Athos rejected the idea immediately.

“No creativity. Emília, you’re next.” Athos passed the turn to Emília.

“Well, you chose dragontusk and bonesaw for the materials used in the weapon, right? So how about scaledrako?” Emília suggested, but the skeletons didn’t seem very convinced.

“The name isn’t bad, but it doesn’t feel right. A reference to scales isn’t bad, but drako sounds weird. I think we can keep the scale and choose another word to complement it.” Athos spoke.

“How about Skullscale? You know, like your skull-shaped shoulder pads?” Treevor started taking the name choice seriously all of a sudden.

“You little punks, deathscale gets so much better.” Dwarvin was unable to stand still hearing bad names and got involved.

“We’ve already named a lot of things death and corrupted. Necroscale also goes together.” Athos made a suggestion of his own, causing the skeletons to nod.

“Ohhh!” They clapped and finally agreed on a name.

An alert started ringing in the heads of all the skeletons, alerting that a group of Sun lions were attacking, making Athos smile.

“Perfectly timed. They’ll be a good test for me.” Athos spoke and warned the watchmen on the wall to buy time until he arrived.
