Chapter 976 The Name that Strikes Fear
He even contemplated asking Mrs Seraphina to create a Gearweaver sword for him, just in case, unsure if a bow and arrow would possess the same capabilities. However, he quickly dismissed this thought, understanding that he couldn't wield it.
As the raw Vylkr energy surrounding Leif surged higher, enhancing his prowess, the Vylkr vines on the handle stretched further, crawling up his hands and reaching his forearms. Seig's frown deepened, and just as he was about to warn him, the runes on the enhanced Gearweaver began to glow brightly. The hum of the weapon and the faint sound of gears emerged from within, halting the Vylkr vines' ascent.
They soon retracted into the blade, and the entire weapon returned to its normal state, dispersing the excess raw Vylkr energy it had accumulated. However, the veins around the Gearweaver continued to glow fiercely until gradually subsiding into dormancy.
The Vylkr energy around Leif's Devourer bracelet dissipated, retracting back into his body.
Bang!
The enhanced Gearweaver slipped from Leif's grasp, clattering to the ground. His steps faltered, but a firm hand steadied him before he could fall.
"He's exhausted from triggering one of the enhanced Gearweaver's fail-safes. A healer will attend to him shortly, and he'll be fine," Seraphina's voice echoed through the room.
Seig breathed a sigh of relief, letting the enhanced Gearweaver sword fall from his grip to the floor. Witnessing its formidable power, which would undoubtedly amplify the fearlessness of the Vylkr warriors, coupled with the recent unsettling events that had ironically bolstered the confidence of Paradise's residents in their protective barrier, Seig couldn't help but feel immense pity for anyone foolish enough to challenge Paradise.
They would regret it for the rest of their lives, assuming their souls managed to survive.

"Despite not forming a proper bond with the enhanced Gearweaver sword and attempting to push it to its limits with an unfit Devourer's bracelet, the fail-safe still kicked in, incapacitating the Vylkr vine and saving his life. So, what's your assessment?" Seraphina asked, turning to face the Key leaders behind her.
"It's reassuring. The demonstration has alleviated my concerns about the enhanced Gearweavers, so you have our go-ahead to continue with production. Just keep us informed if any significant issues arise that you can't handle so we can address potential threats immediately," Orion responded, nodding.
"Indeed," High King Kael chimed in.
The Key leaders shared their thoughts one by one, unanimously approving the name for the weapon that promised to catalyze a profound change among the warriors of Paradise.

The Sleeping Fox Runaway City
The Royal Den
"Has Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise from Runaway City sent us any messages yet?" asked a man with deep violet skin complemented by pigmented violet sharp curved horns and broad folded wings, dressed in a simple brown robe with intricate golden accents.
His name was Garron El'thas. He is also known as the Master of Natural Resources of Sleeping Fox Runaway City and oversees its upper body and neck.
"No, they haven't. It's clear they've chosen to surrender their positions and Runaway City without resistance against Paradise. So, it means we're on our own," responded the woman with stylish tied auburn hair, fox-like ears, and four flowing tails flowing behind her. She was dressed in a colourful robe featuring various brilliant tail-like patterns, her expression stern.
Her name was Amelia Greenbough. She is the Chief Diplomat and Envoy of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City. She resides in the Royal Den, the Head of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, alongside Former Emperor Lakul.
"It's understandable, considering the events that occurred a half-month ago. Just like ours, the inhabitants of the Wanderlust Travelling Tortoise Runaway City are clamouring to their leaders to return to familiar grounds to avoid experiencing the horrifying event of the sun and the firmament descending upon the earth," responded a man with avian-like features, dark feathers, dressed in black scholarly robes adorned with faint green embellishments, shaking his head in response.
His name was Syrik, the Master of Espionage and Intelligence of the Sleeping Fox Runaway City, who controlled the section known as the 'Ears.'
