Jika nodded and then made the arrangements with the Kaleu Tribulation Steel owner.

"Alright. He is quite far away at the moment, so he said that it will take at least two weeks to arrive."

Krune nodded.

"No problem, I will not be leaving the Wisp Worlds anytime soon. Just let me know when he arrives."

Jika nodded and then said.

"I don't have the level necessary to craft this thing. Diamond Stars Level materials need Diamond Stars Level Blacksmiths. That is because Chaos Energy is necessary for the process. If I try it, the level of the Shields will fall to the Golden Stars level. Besides, I'm only a SevenGolden Stars Blacksmith, so it would be a complete waste to use me."

Krune agreed with Jika.

"Only the Manager is at the Diamond Stars level here in the Branch, right? Would it be possible to ask him, or do I need to go out for it?"

Jika shrugged her shoulders and said.

"Well, you won't know until you ask."

The Manager's name was Yanvlal Surrigel, A 7th Stage Void Breaking Realm cultivator and a Three Diamond Stars Blacksmith. He also had been the Manager of this breach for over 20 years. Considering his level, he should have left a long time ago. But because the benefits paid for the Blacksmith Organization were quite good, he extended his stay.

He was dealing with a few supplies documents when someone knocked on his door.

"Come in."

The visitors were obviously Jika and Krune.

"Oh, it's Jika. I can see you brought someone as well. What is the problem?"

Jika then explained that Krune needed a Diamond Stars Blacksmith to craft his Flying Shields.

"I see... As long as you pay the Blacksmith Organization Price, I have no problem doing it. But remember that this is gonna be a Diamond Stars Level Shields, and there are a total of 38 of them. Considering the time and level necessary, it will cost quite some Spirit Stones."

Krune already expected for that. After all, Blacksmiths don't work for free. The fact that Jika helped him for free until now was basically because of her curiosity about the Skeleton Dragon Bones.

"That won't be a problem. If there is something I'm not lacking at the moment, it is Spirit Stones."

Yanvlal nodded, satisfied.

"Very well, just come back when you get the necessary materials."

Krune then asked something else.

"As far as I know, there should be no need for Divine Imprints now that I'm at the Divine Soul Realm, right?"

From what Krune heard in the past, Divine Soul Realm cultivators and demon beasts could use their Divine Sense and Blood to bound an ownerless Divine Imprint. So, in theory, Krune shouldn't have a need to create a Divine Imprint close to the level of the Flying Shields anymore.

Yanvlal heard that and nodded.

"You are correct. I will create ownerless Divine Imprints, and you just need to bound it later. Of course, if you create the Divine Imprints yourself, it will be a lot better."

Krune then asked.

"Why is that?"

Yanvlal then explained.

"Your Shields are going to be a One or Two Diamond Stars level. So you will need at least a Seven Golden Stars Divine Imprint to bind them. Once a Blacksmith enters the Golden Stars Level, they use their own laws during the forging process. Do you understand?"

Krune nodded.

"Simply put, if the Divine Imprints are crafted using my own laws, my control over them should be better."

Yanvlal smiled and nodded.

"Well, that's basically it. Anyway, I will be staying in this Branch for the next few years. So I am in no hurry to craft your shields. You can decide if you want to craft your own Divine Imprints or let me use Ownerless ones."

Krune nodded, and then he left the room with Jika.

Yanvlal looked at the door from where they left and remembered one thing.

"I haven't asked what level of a blacksmith he is. Oh well, if he was together with Jika, he is probably at the Golden Stars as well."

Yanvlal then kept checking the documents on his table as if nothing had happened.

On the way back, Jika commented.

"Seems like you will have your Shields crafter in two weeks then."

Krune looked at her with a puzzled face.

"How come? I'm only a Silver Stars Blacksmith, not to mention that my qualification was from before I came to the Dalin Universe. There is no way I can Craft the Divine Imprints in just two weeks."

This time, the one who was puzzled was Jika herself.

"I know that you are a Silver Stars Blacksmith, the attendant who contacted me earlier mentioned that. That's why I'm saying you can craft it in two weeks. After all, there is no other choice other than using Ownerless Divine Imprints. In that case, you better have it crafted straight away."

Krune shook his head.

"Of course, there is. I just need to become a Golden Stars Blacksmith myself. Simple as that."

Jika's mouth twitched a bit.

"Just how long do you intend to wait to have those Shields crafted? A hundred years?"

Krune looked at Jika as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Who the hell would take a hundred years? One year is more than enough."

Krune finally arrived at the Branch's exit and was just about to bid farewell when he noticed Jika's face.

'What's wrong with her?'

Little did Krune know that Jika was about to explode in anger.

'Who the hell takes a hundred years? I TOOK A HUNDRED YEARS YOU SHIT!'

Still, she didn't say that out loud. She thought that Krune was probably joking.

Heavin, who had come together because he and Krune can't be separated, decided to ask.

"Do you really need an entire year just to go from a Silver Stars to a Golden Stars? With your laws at the moment, it was supposed to be a lot faster."

Krune shrugged his shoulders and said.

"There is no need to be in a hurry. It is best to advance steadily and slowly to consolidate one's blacksmith foundation. Besides, I don't plan to leave the Wisp Worlds for some time."

Jika almost fainted right there!

'Steady and slowly? That is what you call steady and slowly?! Go to hell!'

Jika turned around and entered the Blacksmith building again while fuming! She refused to believe that someone could advance that fast.

Heavin and Krune looked at that and felt puzzled.

"Why she looked so angry?"

Krune shook his head and sighed.

"Who knows, there are too many mysteries in the Universe."

Krune then took flight and went back to his home with Heavin.

While Heavin went back to his room, Krune took this opportunity to pay Cinty a visit. After all, he had to at least inform her about Olave Merfil's visit.

"I see, so you decided to help him in exchange for a favor. But what if you fail? Are you really willing to be enemies with him?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders and said.

"It is not like you don't know the meaning behind this, right?"

Cinty looked at Krune for a second and then started to laugh.

"Hahaha! It is good that you know. You are right. Whether you succeed in saving her or not, it doesn't change the fact that the Dalin Universe management probably knows about your existence. Since that is the case, they would hunt you regardless of the outcome, so you have nothing to lose to start with."

Krune smiled and nodded.

"Exactly. By the way, I've never used the formation for the Wisp Kings and Queens before. Is it really safe?"

Cinty nodded.

"You don't need to worry. It was built by Phillin himself! He was a Space Major Divine Soul Divinity Realm Wisp, and also one of Wally's nine disciples. Even I myself had used it quite a few times, including after you passed me the Myriad Energies Technique."

Krune couldn't help but ask.

"How's your cultivation going?"

Cinty showed a brilliant smiled and replied.

"Thanks to your technique and my Blackhole Major Divine Soul, I'm already in the middle of the 7th Stage of the Void Breaking Realm! It feels so good to have meridians, the Spiritual Energy rushes inside so fast! I advanced two stages in just 4 some years, so I'm very confident in having a shot at the Divine Path Realm."

Krune was happy for Cinty.

"That is good then. I will go back to practice some alchemy. There are two pills that I need to concoct to repair my foundation and heal my soul."

Cinty then suggested.

"Why don't you take the opportunity to use the Life Dew to make more than one pill? Life Dew Pill, especially one made by you, should be a lot more effective than those two."

Krune agreed with Cinty.

"That is the plan. But since I've never tried to make a Life Dew Pill before, I don't know if I will succeed or not. Just in case that something happens and I am not able to concoct it, I better have the other two to guarantee my recovery. Anyway, I will know if I can do it or not in just a few days."

Cinty nodded.

"Very well, since you already have everything planned, I will leave it to you."

Krune then bid farewell to Cinty and returned to his room to practice alchemy once more.
