Chapter 597: Celebrimbor

It was rather funny to see how the interaction between Hephaestus and Celebrimbor went as the goddess was highly confused by the elf lord. First and foremost he was unlike anything she had ever seen as unlike Nick who was a strange fusion of many races Celebrimbor was pure elf and old as all hell to boot. That last part really bothered her as she had a very hard time wrapping her head around the idea that a race could be innately immortal. Celebrimbor was patient with her however and tried his best to explain the situation without mentioning the system.-

Beyond this however the elf lord integrated into the world quite easily as he had witnessed it from Nicks mindscape for quite some time now. Over the next few days the elf had come to be not only accepted into the city but was even revered to a good degree after he gave the hunters some instruction in combat on a whim. One needed to remember that Celebrimbor was a highly experienced warrior who had spent decades to centuries honing his skill in combat. Thanks to this he was able to manhandle every hunter in the city and he even taught them in the process.-

The twilight style however was Celebrimbors new favorite though as an elf he was innately close to that domain and thus rapidly learned and mastered the style under Nicks help. He even hoped to mix it and his own style to create even more powerful objects. Neither Hephaestus or Nick tried to dissuade him as while they had thought of doing so themselves it was too much effort compared to the possible payout.-

The elf knew this of course but the fact that his style had a hard limit of tier five bothered him so he was willing to pay whatever it cost took to raise that limit. Mixing the two styles would indeed accomplish this but only to the peak of tier five at most as the benefits the light material could bring to the table for the style were additive rather than multiplicative. To put it bluntly this was a long and difficult path that the elf lord had chosen but one that at it's conclusion would possibly set him at the level of a god.-

Nick took great joy when it came to teaching Celebrimbor magic over the next few months as the elf lord had to start from the very basics. The wand that chose the elf lord was also an interesting one in that it was a ten inch elder wood wand with the core being one of Nazguls shed feathers. Despite this however Celebrimbor came to loathe Nicks lessons on magic as he took great joy in pointing out the mistakes the elf lord had made in a harsh manner. Nick was an absolute demon when it came to learning as he accepted nothing less than perfection in the basics before allowing Celebrimbor to move on to the more advanced subjects.
