章節 346: Metal

Daedalus walked into the room curiously only to find his uncle sat on the sofa with his aunt. He had know they where a thing but Daedalus was surprised at how blunt they where about it now. Disregarding that though Daedalus felt that it was extremely helpful that his aunt was also there as he was planning to ask for her help as well.

Sitting down across from them Daedalus immediately began speaking about the topic of why he had come out of his seclusion. It wasn't overly complicated simply him explaining that he realised he could just eat attributed beasts to gather the attributes more quickly.

When Daedalus was done explaining this to his aunt and uncle, Artair spoke "I think we should be capable of that much, however I spoke with Ultraun and it seems he has a few interesting creations. Could you get me the blueprints for some of these? I wanted to try implementing the air cleaning device into most of he dwarven cities."

Daedalus smiled at this and said "Well I'll have to speak with Ultraun but I don't think he will mind too much."

Ceridwen then took this chance to respond to his request by saying "You will be representing the elven empire in the tournament, so I will definitely help you out with this. Also have you heard about the races geniuses advancement?"

Daedalus smiled at the first half however on the second half his face became more serious. With a nod Daedalus said "Yes I heard, they have entered The Path."

Ceridwen then said "How well will you do against them do you think?"

Daedalus smirked and said "Given that I get enough of each attribute to form each embodiment of affinities for at least the basic elements, I'll be able to fight them head on at least, if not completely destroying them."

Artair laughed at this and said "Oh yeah, well I was calling Metal here for a progress report, why don't you two have a spar!?"

About an hour later Daedalus could be seen in the castles kitchen making a few dishes out of a darker meat. This meat was from an Earthen Bull, a massive beast that had been domesticated by the dwarven empire as a staple food and working animal.

Daedalus had been surprised when he learned that there was a domesticated earth attributed beast in the dwarven empire and was even more surprised when it turned out to be a staple food. Artair quickly dispelled Daedalus' confusion by stating that it was usually not prepared within the castle as the meat was declared as too tough.

Daedalus had at the time stared at his uncle with judging eyes even when his uncle had explained it was because a supervisor had made the judgement. From that day onward Daedalus would refer to him as The Picky Eater!

After having prepared a few dishes Daedalus eventually took his food and sat at the annoyingly large table. It was at that moment that someone Daedalus never met sat down on the other side and reached for the food.
