Looking at the hammer, Aryan grabbed it

"Body forging and Healing huh?" He said, examining the hammer. It had 6 small wings and glowed in a splendid green light 

Using appraisal, Aryan got what he expected


Ding! 

Body forging -  By smashing your bones, the hammer can heal them back up, making them stronger and refined


"Ara~ Ara~ What a strong skill,"  Said itzel , the siren

"Indeed so," Aryan muttered, grabbing the hammer "System, where's the poison?"


Ding!

In the heart host!


"Here goes nothing then" With a breaking sound, Aryan drove the hammer into his heart 

A scream enveloped the room as Aryan felt the pain of his actions


Warning!

Suddenly, a warm feeling appeared from the hammer, going into his arm and travelling down the heart

Walking up to a low-grade soul stone, he attempted to use trace on it 


Trace failed!

Reason: Wouldnt be that easy host


With a sigh, Aryan walked back to where he came, which was a passage 

Seeing me come out, the Mantis all cheered as they all bowed towards me 

"They seem to have a lot of respect to Hephaestus huh" Aryan muttered, before walking back to the city 

*Boing*  *Boing* 

A familiar boing was heard as a slime came running towards Aryan 

With a smile, Aryan took a hug from Guubo

"How did you know my location buddy?" He said, going guubo a head pat 

"Are you dumb?" Itzel said "She's your servant, they always know where you are,"  Itzel said, lecturing Aryan "She probably couldn't get in due to the Mantis"

"Yes, Ma'am" Aryan rolled his eyes. he hasn't been lectured for quite a while 

Going to the cliff overlooking the bustling city, Aryan jumped down 

with his constitution and strength, jumping down isn't a problem 

Walking into the city and giving the tax,

It suddenly started raining

locating and walking into Mrs Beatrix Tailoring shop, Aryan shouted

"Mrs Beatrix?" Looking around the shop, he didn't see her at all

Suddenly, the door opened as Duke walked in 

"Ah......Aryan." Duke muttered with a sigh "Mrs Beatrix isn't here"

"Huh?" Aryan said, "Where is she?" 

Behind him, Itzels frowned softened and turned into a sigh 

"Follow me." The duke said, walking towards the centre 

Seeing the Duke walk into Hospital, Aryan's heart dropped.

Dukes normally sunny smile turned into a sad one as they both walked into the 3rd floor, the Vip Ward

"Follow." The Duke said with a single word.

Opening a door, Aryan saw Mrs Beatrix on a bed 

"Hmm?" Her weak voice sounded throughout the empty hospital bed Looking towards Aryan, she muttered "You didn't come back for a week! I thought you were dead!" She shouted, her tone full of worry. But seeing Itzel, her angry expression became a teasing one  "Is this your girlfriend, my my, you have good taste"

This caused a wry smile to come out of both spirit and master

"Why are you in here?" Aryan muttered, with worry evident in his tone 

"It's mana overdraw" Duke muttered. "when the person gets older, their constitution deteriorates. this leads to the mana being too much for the person and they slowly and painfully die"

"How long have you been through this!" Aryan screamed. she didn't tell him, he would have gone to the ends of the earth for a cure if she told him!

"2 Painful years" She muttered "But when you came, the pain dwelled a bit." She added "Thank you"

Running up to her and giving her a hug, she finished 

"When the rain stops, my life will come to an end," She said 

So they both waited. they talked and talked , trying to get the last few minutes in

The grey sky slowly became a sunny one, as the rainbows appeared, causing the kids outside to come out and play 

With every passing second, her wrinkles becoming more and more prominent as her lifeforce was flickering 

Itzel suddenly came up to her, supplying her with lifeforce 

"It's pointless." She sighed "Ive already accepted Death." Looking towards Aryan, she passed him a box

Inside of it was a magic needle 


The Queens Needle - Sharpness 5 - Speed 5 - Levitation - 5  (Enchanted)

A Needle Made for the "Battle queen" A warrior that made countries shiver in fear. Alongside her powerful but unique weapon, she redefined the battlefield 

Spirit - Ignas - the fire spirit of battle (Sealed)


"Battle queen they used to call me." Mrs Beatrix said "What a cliche name," She said, wrinkling up

"My time has come." She said, lying in the bed with a wry smile

Aryan wanted to say something, but couldn't say a word 

Looking up at the ceiling, she said 

"I look forward to seeing my dear husband and son," She said, looking up at the ceiling 

"Ulric, Elias, Please wait for me to catch up," She said with a  weak smile, before her grip on Aryan hand slowly got weaker and weaker as it slowly became limp

"Mrs Dartix?" Aryan muttered, trying to wake her up, not believing that she's dead 

"Leave her be child. She dead." The duke sighed
