Bab 550: Red Line

When Liam woke up, he felt horrible.

Aching, tired and mentally drained.

Blood stains and gunk dirtied the once clean crevice.

It wasn't the first time he had fallen unconscious during Primordial Forging's renewal.

Since his blood had become so potent and heavy, his mental sphere strained under its weight.

4 and a half months had passed in the blink of an eye. To Liam, though, it felt like a week.

Burning away traces of his stay, Liam took out his odachi.

He separated them from their unified state, and all three swords — the Dusks, Black Blade and Breaker — sat on the floor.

'What do I start with?'

Unlike before where Liam had the liberty of making rapid changes over quick periods of time… now, it was a different story.

Once Liam made a change, he could only make another after one year.

…What did this mean?

Liam could only make one special item, one special change, per year.

Why?
