In general, during the few days that the various Pantheons have signed trade treaties, the agreement to authorize traders to enter the Pantheons and many others. Viego had many different Deities in his store, such as Anubis, who was the first to visit the store. And despite his appearance, he is half-jackal. Anubis turned out to be a witty and nice guy, and with him the first contract for a non-standard Artifact took place.
(Viego)-I feel this will be my best necromancy creation. Hehe
Said Viego who was discussing the project with Ambassador Anubis. He sketched the appearance of his staff and general aesthetic matters. The staff for Anubis is to be functional, as the Egyptian God himself explained. The staff is a long stick with a green core, secured with platinum shields. The fragment under the core has many runes that will emit a fluroscopic green glow when activated. And the rest of the staff is just a dark gold metal stick.

Anubis was a really tall man, over two meters by the eye. Dark black skin, his muscles were heavily defined, and his face was literally the face of a jackal. He was dressed in an ornate golden Egyptian-style tunic with black accents. She had gold shoulder straps and a sort of Egyptian circle-shaped shoulder strap and a bizarre Egyptian hood.

(Anubis)-Maybe because it will be the first such artifact.Haha ..
(Viego)-Indeed, however, I will need some key elements. I can offer a destruction if you have any of them. If so, not only the waiting time will change, but also the Kostór will be more compatible.
Anubis frowned, and despite the difficult-to-recognize facial expressions, it was clear that he was considering and anticipating. Overall, a very confusing head.
(Anubis)-Maybe first tell me what you would need.
(Viego)-The key issue is the crystal, specifically the core. Ideally, it would come from a creature in your Pantheon with a strong connection to Death. Additionally, the effectiveness of the artifact depends to a large extent on it.
Viego said pointing to the core element on the projection that was on the parchment on the table in the study.
(Anubis)-It shouldn't be hard. I agree.
(Viego)-I will need three because to guarantee the highest quality I will need protection if the inside of the core is up to standard. It's more a monster-specific issue, as each core is different. Telling the truth.
It was a lie because it doesn't have that requirement. This procedure was to complicate the process of creating an artifact in the eyes of Gods and the whole world. Slight understatements, complicating simple lines. With every questioning God and curse, it allows you to exaggerate many facts and prevent others from copying the secret of creating artifacts.
(Anubis)-I see. But why three?
(Viego)-I just don't want to overburden the client too much, but the more the better. Then I would have avoided a lot of core work, and the artifact would be more compatible with you, Anubis.
(Anubis)-I'll see what I can do. What's next.
(Viego)-As for metal. Lucky you, I have all the stock. So I take this point on myself. Two scrolls remain, specifically spells. Earlier you said you wanted an artifact to summon a bone golem, I understand. One mighty golem is better than many weaker ones. However, I will need a spell scroll to work them out and you know, do my job. And the same with the first spell, the "bone arrow of Anubis." I heard about this spell, really powerful. So, again, I ask for some really strong cores. How about that.
Anubis really had a moral dilemma as these spells are closely monitored by their Pantheon and are a kind of treasure. It's just that these spells are extremely powerful and were created by Powerful Gods. And spells of this type cannot be distributed, much less to a person from outside the Pantheon who has met for the first time.
(Viego)-Anubis. I perfectly understand your situation. However, you must know that you will not get such an artifact anywhere. There is no, I am just the first to create such secrets of the art of craftsmanship. And now giving me an act of trust, saying the spells that I will use to create just and promptly an artifact with these spells for you. Which is part of my job. So I can assure you that the spells will remain only and immediately in my possession. Even my women won't have access to it. Because even they don't know a little bit of a secret. So you can be calm.
Then Viego saw Anubis fighting internally. After that, he has apparently cast a spell and in his hands there are two golden scrolls in a decorative gold wrapper with Egyptian patterns.
Then, with a slightly hesitant movement, he hands it to Viego. Who just puts them back in Vi's inner pocket. As a result, Viego smiles at him and talks.
(Viego)-You can search me. It guarantees you won't find your scrolls.
(Anubis)-What?!!
The Egyptian God, very panicked, ran to Vi and really tried to locate the two scrolls. He even went so far as to put his hand under Vi's breastplate. But he could neither physically nor magically locate the two scrolls, nor even the internal structure of the breastplate.
(Anubis)-How??
(Viego)-It's easy. The inside of the breastplate was made of the fur of a certain Mitgard creature, which I got from my friend from Helhaim. Then a lot of modifications, fun and a breastplate with many pockets from which only I can take items out.
(Anubis)-It's an Artifact ??
(Viego)-You really thought the Artefatky was a weapon. After all, you saw my ship, it may not be beautiful, but it will be the fastest vehicle in the supernatural world.
(Anubis)-Is it possible to buy something more than this type of artifact ?
(Viego)-It is generally a matter of whether I have time and whether you are able to offer me something that will convince me. Because, as you know, I have a lot of orders and the waiting time could be very long.
(Viego)-Plus, it's not like I'm a workaholic like Hephaestus. I have my own life and I am also working on my own skills. And in the near future I have many plans not related to creating artifacts. Of course, the staff will be ready, literally the day after I get the cores. Until then, I will refine the remaining elements. you understand.
(Anubis)-I see. So if someone wanted an artifact from Cb, and only offered gold. You would refuse.
(Viego)-Honestly, yes. Custom orders. As you can understand, they are much more powerful than the ones that he sells wholesale. And what shelves need gold now, for a purpose. However, funds are becoming the less and less of a worry and if someone wants a custom order they will have to add something extra to the order. Like cores or knowledge, even if it relates to the artifact itself that the client receives.
Anubis was definitely trying to get a lot of information about Vi. It was evident from the fact that Anubis is one of the most beloved Gods. That even closed, the terrifying Mayan Pantheon invites him to meetings. It shows that the information obtained by Vi will not only become well known to the Egyptian Pantheon but also to many others. Which will result in the fact that Vi's reputation as an Artifact creator will increase, and Vi will gain not only fame, but also knowledge and special materials. Which will serve as material for his own development and personal artifacts.
Interestingly, the next client who was the Ambassador. And it was Serafall Leviathan, a magic maid and one of the Maou of the Biblical Pantheon. One of the leaders of the Devil faction, to be exact. He already knew about this information and asked what he would need to create a real Magic Girl's magic wand. Overall, Viego had received a lot of non-standard orders over the past few days. Plus, a lot of spells he wouldn't normally be able to get for any money.
Additionally, Viego saw the Devil for the first time, and it was a woman. And a rumor that most of the women of this race are real Succubi. It was confirmed. There was literally something in Serfall that he wanted to literally undress her and take her here and now. But he has mastered himself for the time being. At the end of the visits of the Viego Ambassadors, he sat in his office with Elem and thought about his future plans.
