The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

Jessica's cheek twitched slightly.

If there's any advantage to having darker skin, it's probably that you won't be noticed when you blush.

“Someone like you won’t even get soup.” Anna kissed Vina on the cheek, as if in a show of defiance, then looked at Jessica. “There’s something even more exciting, want to see?”

"cough!"

"cough."

Vina and Jessica coughed almost simultaneously.

Anna knew when to stop and sat back down in her original seat.

“Actually, there’s something else.” Jessica took the Nine-Character Sword from her bosom and placed it on the table. “I hope you can help me fix it.”

Wiener grunted in acknowledgment, casually drew the Nine-Character Sword from its sheath, and then gasped.

The once smooth, mirror-like blade is now covered with dents and cracks, and has lost its original luster.

In some areas, it even appears as if the heat caused the water to melt.

Only then did he realize just how difficult it was to "get a feather".

With her left hand gently stroking the badly injured Kuji Kensada, Venerer reflected on the battles of the past month, her heart filled with emotion.

“This sword is almost at the end of its lifespan. If you would like, I can reforge one for you.”

Wiener placed the Nine-Character Mantra back in front of Jessica.

"Let's do as you say."

Jessica, who had already anticipated this, didn't dwell on it.

"What kind of weapon do you want?" Wiener asked.

“Let me think…” Jessica closed her eyes and recalled, her mind filled with the arrogant image of the phoenix. “I want an ice-attribute sword, like Admira’s.”

“Understood,” Viner nodded, then stood up. “If there’s no rush, sit a little longer. I’ll begin the forging now.”

“It’s not a big deal if it takes a little more time,” Jessica replied.

Seeing Viner head towards the materials shelf, Anna quickly followed, "If you need those materials, I'll help you prepare them."

Anna knew exactly where each material was located, thanks to the help of her and Felix in organizing all of these materials.

“Alright, could you help me find the White Dew Dragon Scales, Moon Silver Sand, and Empty Cicada Wings? I’ll go to my room to get some other things,” Vena instructed.

“Okay,” Anna readily agreed.

Although they were just small tasks, she enjoyed them.

After Anna had prepared all the materials, Venere came out of Felix's room, holding a silver ribbon in her hand.

"Now everything is ready."

Chapter 519 White Snow Sleeves

"Ah!"

Vina pressed the White Dew Dragon Scales onto the cold iron and hammered them heavily, but the sparks that should have been flying up were replaced by frost flowers.

This strange sight caused the two people watching to hold their breath.

The dragon scales began to crack from the edges, and he then splashed the dark red moon silver sand onto the scales.

The alternation of ice and fire caused crackling sounds to occasionally emerge from the forging platform, but these were quickly drowned out by the hammering sound.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

When he swung the hammer again, the black iron under the anvil suddenly cracked, but what emerged from the crack was not iron slag, but blooming ice roses.

Knowing the time was right, Venerer attached the hollow cicada wings to the cold iron. The translucent butterfly wings shattered into snow mist upon impact, but were then reassembled into ice crystal veins due to the freezing air emitted by the cold iron.

Then he bit his fingertip, and the blood froze into an ice bead before it could fall.

With another hammer blow, Viner smashed the ice bead into ice powder.

The crushed ice powder mixed with the remaining moon silver sand was applied in a thin layer to the sword blank.

The pure white sword blank was immersed by Vina in a specially prepared ice marrow liquid, and the mist rising from the surface of the liquid condensed into six-petaled snowflake-like ice crystals.

With a flick of his sword, the ice marrow liquid, whose freezing point is below zero, turned into icicles the moment it was detached.

Anyone could see that he hadn't used a single bit of magic energy; he relied entirely on the quality of the weapon itself.

"finished?"

Seeing Viner leave the forging platform, Jessica couldn't help but ask a question.

“One more step.” Venere walked to the workbench and tied the prepared ribbon to the end of the sword hilt. “Now we’re all done.”

“This sword is called, Sleeve White Snow.” Vena presented the sword.

-----------------

"Sleeves of White Snow:"

Weapon type: Sword

Weapon Grade: A

Usage restrictions: Swordsmanship A, Magic A

characteristic:

Memento: Sode no Shirayuki is the most beautiful Zanpakuto. The wounds inflicted by it leave behind ice crystal memories, which the wielder can detonate at any time, causing secondary damage. A single memory can remain for a maximum of seven days.

White Satin Moon White: A circle is drawn with White Snow's white satin. The world covered by this circle is White Snow's frozen domain, suppressing all elements except those with the ice attribute.

Absolute Zero: Sode no Shirayuki's temperature will continuously decrease as the battle progresses. When the blade temperature drops to -18 degrees Celsius, the wounds will stop bleeding; when it drops to -50 degrees Celsius, it can freeze the moisture in the air, causing "ice tremors"; when it is close to absolute zero, Sode no Shirayuki can enter Bankai state.

Bankai: Hakuka Punishment: Upon entering this state, Sode no Shirayuki's appearance and the wielder's clothing will change to match her name, "Most Beautiful." Simultaneously, the area of ​​effect of Sode no Shirayuki's freezing ability will be drastically increased, freezing everything within its range. Enemies touched by the cold will be completely frozen, ultimately shattering into pieces along with the ice.

-----------------

“What a beautiful sword, but…” Jessica hesitated.

The pure white blade in her hand contrasted sharply with her dark skin, making her feel a little ashamed.

“Isn’t this a perfect match for you?” Wiener retorted.

"Are you pairing white with black because you think I'll look darker and uglier?" Jessica couldn't help but think.

No matter how much she pretended not to care, she was still quite bothered by Wiener's opinion.

“It’s gold with silver,” Viner shook his head.

As he spoke, he carefully straightened Jessica's blonde hair and untied the white satin from her sleeve, tying it up neatly.

This action left Jessica completely stunned.

“You are naturally beautiful, and this skin color cannot change that. It’s just a pity about this lock of hair,” Vena sighed.

During this time, he did a lot of hair care for Lisette, and his skills have obviously improved a lot.

"Also, you really worked hard this time. I thank you on behalf of Lisette for the Phoenix Feather." Vena bowed deeply.

“I’m not doing this for your thanks,” Jessica said, trying to sound calm.

"I am serious."

Viner looked up and stared directly into Jessica's amber eyes until a hint of panic appeared in Jessica's gaze.

"If you hadn't brought me back to the academy, if you hadn't led me into the Silver Wolf Class, I probably wouldn't have achieved what I have today."

“You are a benefactor in my life,” Viña said sincerely.

"Shh!"

Jessica vanished from her spot in an instant, leaving only a gentle breeze behind.

Wiener: "?"

Anna walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and laughed, "Don't look anymore, they've already run away."

"No, why would she run away?" Viner asked, puzzled.

“She’s just an innocent young girl, how can she withstand your teasing? Let her process this for a couple of days, she should be fine.” Anna hugged Vina from behind and smiled mischievously. “Now it’s time to coax me.”

"Then how do you want me to coax her?" Viner turned her head to look at Anna.

“I don’t ask for the same treatment as Lisette, but—if Jessica has a gift, I should too.” Anna’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"You really don't suffer any losses," Viner said with a hint of helplessness.

“I’ve already given you so much, what’s wrong with wanting a gift?” Anna retorted, her tone slightly coquettish.

"That seems to be the case."

Even if Anna hadn't mentioned it, Venere was prepared to forge a weapon for her; he couldn't just take advantage of her for nothing.

“But I can’t move if you hold me like this,” Viner said helplessly.

As soon as he said that, Anna pressed even closer, and a sensation and scent completely different from Listy's came from Venus's back.

“I’m not as impatient as Jessica. You can give me the gift before you leave,” Anna said softly.

Miss Anna is quite greedy; she won't let anyone use forging as a way to pass the time with her.

Moreover, this way, Vener would have to see her one more time, which is a win-win situation.

“Okay,” Viner agreed.

Jessica's weapon has been dealt with; now it's his and Felix's turn.

With the Staff of Tyrhuns, Lisette doesn't need any other weapons, but she can help Rikka upgrade the Three Heavens Blade.

While on his way, Wiener had already decided what weapon he wanted to forge. All he needed to do was adjust his condition and start forging.

The appointment with Tilisa was for half a month later, and there was plenty of time to forge only four or five weapons.

The reason for allowing a bit more time was to resolve some issues within the school.

“Then you’ll be responsible for chatting with me for the rest of the day,” Anna added, “and telling me about what happened on your trip.”

"Didn't Felix tell you?"

Before handing the student card to Anna, Wiener sent a message to Felix, asking him to take good care of Anna.

“Yes, I did,” Anna nodded. “But there’s another part about your journey with Lisette, when you sent Felix away. I want to hear that part!” Her goal was very clear.

"No... are you sure you won't get jealous if you hear this?" Vena was a little confused.

Why would anyone actively ask for dog food?

"This is my daughter's favorite."

Chapter 520 Seven Stars Sword

Five days later.

"Crack—"

As the longsword was immersed in the quenching pool, a thick fog instantly filled the entire workshop.

A beam of starlight shone through the window onto the seven golden gems on the sword, causing it to glow with a gentle light, as if it were absorbing the power of the stars.

"go."

With a single word, Viña's sword shot out with a "whoosh".

After completing the Ghost Entanglement with Felix, he finally mastered the skill of controlling a sword.

"So, you asked me to come and see the sword, is that what you mean by 'seeing the sword'?"

Felix caught the flying sword between his clasped hands and glared angrily at Vina.

“I deliberately slowed down,” Vena simply smiled, then stepped forward, pulled the sword from Felix’s hand, and asked, “How about you take this Seven Star Sword?”
