Reaper of the Martial World

Book 12: Chapter 13: Manage (1)

Dyon didn’t end up doing much with Saru or Lilith, he didn’t even so much as kiss them. Still, there was a subtle change in their relationship that left the two women feeling content.

There were certain things that couldn’t be changed with just a single conversation or moment. But it was enough for them to know that they were at the very least in his heart.

Dyon was surprised to see that cold, emotionless Lilith he had come to know was actually quite cheerful and carefree. A smile seemed to perpetually hang from her lips and her every motion held a certain ease that could only come from a free spirit.

Considering the first time Dyon met Lilith, she had tried to kill him, it was no wonder such a thing was a surprise to him. He would never guess that her Immortal Dao path was contingent upon this very carefree nature.

Dyon could only sit there stunned when Lilith wrapped both her arms around his, leaning her head to his shoulder with a bright smile that could topple cities.

On his other side, Saru shyly gripped his hand. It was as though she didn’t want to lose out, but didn’t have Lilith’s forthcoming personality. If it wasn’t for him actively enveloping her small hand in his, hers would have already slipped out considering how weakly she had initially acted.

It seemed that Saru had changed too. The Saru Dyon knew always had a calm and pleasing demeanor. Dyon had never thought that she could be so shy. Maybe this was less of a change and more so a hidden trait that only came out in certain situations. Being by the side of the man she loved seemed to meet this criteria.

Dyon honestly found himself in quite an awkward spot. The three of them still stood in the same cave den, but they held onto him like he was leading them somewhere.

In the end, he laughed. Since he was done wasting his time overthinking things, he tapped his foot lightly to the ground, causing a surge of soul qi to spill out from him.

The ground creaked and groaned, slowly morphing this underground cave under Dyon’s prowess.

Saru and Lilith watched on in interest, their beautiful eyes sparkling.

This was clearly no normal creation array. Dyon was actively changing the geography rather than creating a new landscape. This was fundamentally more difficult, especially considering the tough lands of the Immortal Plane, and the Immortal Ancient Battlefield especially.

This was, in fact, an Immortal Creation array of the lower venerable grade. Dyon’s soul had yet to break into the immortal realms, yet it was already capable of implementing arrays of such strength. It could only be said that Dyon was not only a monster, but also that immortal arrays worked more like magic than mortal ones did.

The truth was that Dyon’s soul hadn’t been quite powerful this powerful 50 years ago. However, the constant calculations and pressure his soul had to be under while he reconstructed his body, all to keep his consciousness together and stop the Heavens from taking control, he had improved by leaps and bounds. It was quite odd that he still hadn’t broken through.

Soon, the underground cave had become more like an Immortal Cave.

Before Lilith and Saru, several precious materials hidden deep under ground were pulled up. Including energy stones, there were several ores the two of them had never seen before. But, considering their vibrant and sometimes oppressive auras, they couldn’t have been normal.

Other than the Dragon King, Reaper and the Soul Tome, Dyon didn’t have any other treasures on him.

He left the Aurora Steps to his Mortal Empire in order to easily fully awaken more auroras. In addition, he had thrown The Seal and Hell’s Right Eye away from himself, so they obviously weren’t with him either.

Dyon was an Emperor, why would he carry about energy stones or treasures and the like? He left these things in a treasury to be used by his Empire when they were needed. Unfortunately, that left him the poorest he had been in a long while. Not that mortal plane treasures were worth much on the Immortal Plane anyway.

This aside, this Immortal Cave could be considered his first property here. He likely wouldn’t stay long, but since he planned on exploring the desert bubble world for the next few years, it would be more convenient to have a place here.

He created a few things for luxury and comfort before drawing arrays to light up the place and laying a few defensive and concealment arrays so those wild beasts didn’t come poking around.

After he was done, he looked toward Lilith’s wooden sword and Saru’s rock knuckle busters with a sigh.

“I’m not a weapon’s smith, but I can definitely forge something better than this…”

Saru wasn’t much of a problem, but Dyon knew how much Lilith loved her sword, it was about the only thing he knew about her. It hadn’t been of exceptionally high grade, only of the comet grade, yet despite having married the obviously wealthy Junior, she never changed it. historical

Dyon didn’t try to overwhelm her by creating the greatest sword ever. Not to mention he didn’t have the skill, he felt it was best for Lilith to slowly find another sword she had such a strong connection to.

In as little as ten minutes, Dyon formed a pair of black gloves for Saru and a long 7-foot bladed sword for Lilith which blazed a fiery red that matched Lilith’s eyes when she used her devil qi.

Still, despite the short time it took, they were both half-immortal grade weapons. Though this was mostly due to the high-level materials Dyon dug up from the ground beneath them, the two women still couldn’t help but shake their heads.

Was this really ‘not being a weapon’s smith’?
