Chapter 573: Shackle of the Realms

Adrian received the Fox Marble and the gratitude of the Selvaggian race along with his friends. After the meeting, Adrian led the others back to the main world as they needed to continue more of their unfinished quests. They did have an agreement that they will challenge the dark god together with the army that the Daemos rallied.

Only about 25 days are left before the dark god becomes released from the bindings of the imperial capital. The army that the kingdoms have gathered will launch an attack in five days. Rumor says that warriors from all over the main world have gathered in order to vanquish the dark god.

Adrian must go and visit Aurgelmir because he needs to know how to forge the Shackle of the Realms that Sirius needs in order to evolve. If he does not know how to get that then Adrian will just need to evolve Sirius into a normal Fenrir which is not bad. 

"I just hope that this Shackle of the Realms is not difficult to forge, or I have the items needed for it to be crafted. Fenris barely dropped anything useful as he got disintegrated. He did not even drop a skill book for Sirius to use." Adrian muttered to himself as he used teleportation to transfer to Aurgelmir's forge.

"Old man! Are you here?" Adrian asked as he transferred directly to the forge. 

Adrian did not hear the sound of clanging metals which is why he called out. He would not have called out if he heard the sound as Aurgelmir does not like being bothered when he is forging. The last time he did that made a hammer fly across the room and almost crush his face to mush. 

"I am here brat." Aurgelmir answered.

Adrian saw that the old man is currently resting and drinking a cooling drink that should have been provided by the Frost Queen. He then looked around and saw that Aurgelmir is currently alone which is rare. When the two settled their differences, they acted like newlywed couples or something.

"She is not here. The threat of the dark god is being treated seriously which is why I have been busy preparing arms for the allied races that the Daemos rallied. I just finished forging the weapons and they said that they will attack if the human allied army fails in killing the dak god." Aurgelmir stated as his body looked extremely swelled from continuous forging.

"I see. I did not know that because I have not been back to the Paradox Planes. The Selvaggian King should have informed me, but it seems that he forgot about it because of the celebration of killing Fenris." Adrian muttered.

"So, what do you want brat? I know that you did not visit me because you missed me or anything. You only come to me when you need something. Spill it or get lost." Aurgelmir stated as he already knew that Adrian's visit is intended.

"So grumpy like always. I admit that I need your help on something, but can you at least act happy that I visited you or something?" Adrian stated but Aurgelmir just looked serious as he waited for the former's answer.

"Fine. I am here because I need your blacksmith knowledge about the so-called Shackle of the Realms. I need it to evolve my soulbound into a new existence or something I never heard about at least." Adrian stated but Aurgelmir looked at him with a shocked face.

"Where did you know about this Shackle of the Realms? That is supposed to be an item that can only be used by the gods. It is a device that is used to connect the other worlds together. It should be a lost item since it disappears upon use. Crafting one should be challenging and wonderous!" Aurgelmir stated as he suddenly got excited.

"I cannot believe that an old man would get excited about an item that needs to be crafted." Adrian muttered to himself.

"So…what do I need for you to create it?" Adrian asked as he knows that if it is an item that can only be crafted by gods then only Aurgelmir could craft it in the mortal plane.

"I believe that you cannot craft the item as you have to have the godly metal called Orichalcum in order to create it. Only the divine gods can produce such metal by channeling their magic on a specific mix of earthly metals. 

The other ingredients could be gathered here in the mortal plane but without the Orichalcum they would just be ingredients. Unless you have a large pile of Orichalcum lying around, do not even dream of making one. I would have made one if I could get my hands on Orichalcum after all." Aurgelmir stated as he knew how to forge it but do not have the items.

"If it is Orichalcum then do you think that this would do?" Adrian stated as he presented the Shackle of the Gods to Aurgelmir.

"This! This is what bound that garbage mouthed dog! How did you get it? No more importantly, why did the others let you have it because I thought you were bluffing when you told me that you beat Fenris." Aurgelmir stated as he clutched the chains of orichalcum.

"This would be the base! As long as I get the other items then I would be able to forge it." Aurgelmir stated with great excitement.

"Great! What are the other items that we need? I can go and fetch them." Adrian stated as he also got excited at the chance of getting the item earlier than he expected. Actually, he did not expect that the item could even be made as he already expected the worse so that he does not get disappointed.

"You only need an item that is filled with energy that comes from a different plane of existence and…" Aurgelmir stated as he suddenly looked at Adrian.

"Why are you looking at me funny?" Adrian asked.

"The blood of a demon." Aurgelmir stated as Adrian suddenly shivered.
