"So, that's the portal spreading further huh," Michael said before dropping the small backpack he had with him on the floor. "If this is happening now, that means the one in Eukerion will start spreading soon." He added before pulling out something that looked like a small metallic stick from the backpack.
"What's that?" Tauriel asked.
"I told you to come without your weapon last night, right?"
"Yeah, which I did, and now that I think about it, not coming with it was stupid unless…."
"Here you go," Michael said before throwing the stick toward her.
"You still haven't told me what this strange stick is." She said after catching the device.
"Just press the button at the top and you'll see." He replied.
"Okay." She said before she placed her hand on the button and pushed it downward.
As soon as she did that, the device quickly extended from below until she was holding a bow, a neatly designed bow.
The bow was black with a neat red design running down from both sides in a zigzag and stopping in the middle without making contact with each other.
"What a nice-looking bow," Jude commented.
"I get that it looks nice, but what makes it so special that you had to tell me to leave my bow behind?" The She-elf asked, she didn't have that look of astonishment that Michael was expecting but considering how she always gave off a cold vibe since the day he met her, he half expected it.
"I believe you must have heard during the time you've spent in the other world so far," Michael said.
"Yeah, Layla's told me about them, special weapons with special attributes elemental, enhancement, or any other thing." She replied. "Wait, is this bow a mystic weapon?"
"You figured it out," Michael said.
"But how is that possible?"
"Huh?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Layla said that people don't make mystic bow weapons." She said,
"Oh, I think you misunderstood her, making bows like the one you're holding now is very much possible for any weapon forger, but they see using mystic crystals on bows to be, um….how should I put this? Stupid and a waste of precious and rare mystic crystals." He expressed.
"Huh? Why's that?" Tauriel asked.
"Well, because most of those crystals possess offensive properties, so they're not wrong in any way, and factoring in the fact that most of any archers arrows are lost in a battle, the same can be said about arrows, but using them to make arrows is the better option since it can be used offensively," Michael explained.
"And you still went ahead to make a bow with one of those crystals." She said with a perplexed look on her face.
"To be honest, I made that bow with you in mind."
"With me in mind?" Tauriel said as her cheeks suddenly turned red.
"Yeah, I came across that crystal the same day I met you and your brother, I got the sudden urge to make two matching things, and I ended up making two bows." He expressed.
"Oh, so you have another one of this."
"Yeah, for your twin brother," Michael replied.
After hearing him say that, she gazed at the bow for a while before slowly raising her gaze to look at Michael.
"I appreciate this, I really do, but still, it was a waste to use a crystal with offensive properties to make a bow that can't even be used that way." She said,
"Um…..I never said that bow was made with an offensive mystic crystal."
"Huh?"
"I said most of the crystals are offensive which means that there are crystals that can do other things besides being offensive, and that bow was made with one of those crystals." He expressed.
"And what special thing does this crystal do?" She asked.
"Why don't we find out together? Look around, can you see any animals or any other life form apart from the trees?"
Tauriel didn't reply immediately as she slowly looked around just like he told her to before turning her gaze back to him.
"Everywhere's dark so no." She replied before shaking her head.
"Okay, close your eyes and open them, it can be slow or quick, just make sure you completely shut your eyes before opening them again," Michael instructed.
"Okay." She muttered before she closed her eyes and shot them open as soon as possible.
It was at that moment that her eyesight changed, she could see everything around her, she could see the heat radiating from the body of every animal around them.
"What is this?" She asked with a shocked expression on her face.
"You can see them now, right?" Michael asked.
"Yeah, there are two rabbits over there, a boar over there and then there's you and Jude. Is this what this bow can do?"
"Yeah, the skill has a duration of ten seconds and a cooldown of five seconds, so once the skill duration ends, just wait for five seconds and do what you just did to activate." He explained.
"That's a really nice weapon, did you get any for me, Michael?" Jude asked.
"Of course, I know your normal weapon is a sword."
"Yeah, long blades specifically." The young knight said.
"Okay, but can you wield long blades?" Michael asked.
"I've used one before during a crazy training session back at knight academy, it wasn't that bad since I was able to win with it, but it was heavy and uncomfortable for me, I could have done it faster with a normal sword of any kind." Jude expressed.
"Okay, what about double blades?"
"Um….it's better compared to great swords but a single blade would be okay." The young knight replied.
"Okay, it's a shame that the double blades I have only work well together, so you'll have to take the long sword," Michael said before he brought out a metallic orb just like the one he used earlier, but this one had tiny holes in it.
A little white light suddenly shone around the orb, and once the light was gone, a long blade with a purple blade could be seen lying on the floor.
Jude was impressed by the sword's design as soon as he saw it and he didn't waste any time picking it up.
"Wow, what does it do?" The young knight asked.
"Why don't you activate the skill and see?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"And how do I do that?"
"Unlike most mystic weapons that require you to use your mind to activate the skill, for this weapon, all you have to do is tilt the hilt to activate the skill, and you can tilt it further to increase the intensity, but increasing it to its max can be dangerous," Michael explained.
"Okay," Jude said before suddenly tilting the hilt of the sword.
As soon as he did that, the blade sparked before it was suddenly covered by purple lightning.
"Purple lightning." He said with an amazed look on his face.
"That weapon is a precious tier weapon," Michael said.
"Precious tier?"
"I mean it is just a tier below the highest tier any mystic weapon can be."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, that's why its skill is purple lightning, the strongest form of lightning," Michael said,
"Wow."
"For the record, my katana blade is one tier below this tier."
"Oh."
After saying that, Michael slowly turned his gaze toward the path to Asaka.
'This should be enough time, I guess he's not aware then.' He said subconsciously.

Back at Phoenix academy, everyone was already in the stadium sitting on their seats but not quietly as the main event of the competition was about to kick off.
The seven fighters from all four academies were already on the pitch and the students in the stands, the hyperactive ones, couldn't help but cheer them on.
While all that was going on, three people sitting together happened to all be absent-minded.
'I hope they're still okay.' Luis thought before turning his gaze to Chloe. 'I never thought anything would really trouble her.
