Spending My Retirement In A Game Chapter 432

With a slight smile on his face, Eisen slowly let the soul into the Golem Core and watched as it spread out throughout the thin 'Tubes'.
"Alright... Everything is working nicely..." The old man muttered quietly as he took a look at especially the 'Mist Tail', which was pretty hard to properly create. So that it didn't look too weird to have a white tail while the rest of the fur is completely black, Eisen added other white details throughout the whole fox-body.
The crystal eyes were simply black, and the parts where some 'skin' was visible, it was clear to see just how white it was.
Eisen really did like the way that this Fox turned out, he had to admit to that. It probably wouldn't be the strongest Golem, but especially after managing to maybe rank up once or twice, its body should have made up for all the small, unfavorable details that it might have just when seen from a purely physical-structure-focused point of view.
"Then it's time..." Eisen whispered quietly and made his way over toward the Dungeon gate with the small, unactivated Fox-Golem in his hands. All that was left was for Kirisho to pour her mana into the Golem Core, and it should be possible for her to take control over it. And as it has the soul of an actual fox inside of it, it will act just like one, and will as such hopefully make up for the disappointment that Kirisho was feeling at not being able to tame anything or keep anything as a pet.
And the moment that Eisen opened the Dungeon Gate, he could already see Kirisho sitting at the back of the carriage as she was sitting in the doorway with the door opened and her feet dangling out, while she seemingly just wanted to take a look at everything that was happening in the forest around them.
"Kirisho?" The old man asked with a light smile, and the Mist Spirit slowly turned around. "Yes? Oh, is the item you were working on before ready?" She asked curiously as she stood up and turned toward him, soon noticing the black ball of metallic fur laying in his hands.
"It is. Here..." Eisen muttered quietly and extended his hands forward to give the small black fox golem to her. "I know it's not technically a real animal, but it's close enough there. It's a Golem with a Fox's Soul inside of it. You should be able to activate the enchantments, so you will be seen as its Mistress. Ah, and because it's an Ego-Golem, it can level up as well. I'm not entirely sure in regards to Evolution, but..."
Just when Eisen was trying to properly finish up his explanation, he saw that Kirisho was just staring at him in confusion, seemingly wth tears in her eyes. "Thank you, Eisen... I didn't expect you to... Gift me something like this..." She said with a bright smile and held the Fox more tightly, before looking down at it.
"So I just need to put my mana inside of it?" Kirisho asked, and Eisen swiftly nodded his head in response. "Mhm, exactly." He replied quite clearly, and the Mist-Spirit just looked at him with a light smile while the Golem's fur starting waving around slightly, although that seemed to only be an 'illusion' caused by the shifting of light caused by mana.

And so, soon, the body of the Fox started slightly creaking for just a moment or two, and then soon it stretched itself.
Eisen expected it to be freaked out at first, as anyone would be, but Jyuuk apparently chose a Fox that was very specifically very calm and kind-natured, so that they didn't have to worry about this kind of thing at all, something that Eisen was more than just glad about in retrospect.
The very moment that it seemed to notice its new location and body, the Fox did seem somewhat scared, but soon relaxed when Kirisho started snuggling it.
"Be careful, its fur is made of metal thread, so you might end up hurting yourself." Eisen explained immediately, but Kirisho just shook her head with a smile. "Don't worry, smaller things like that don't really hurt me. My Body technically isn't completely solid anyway, after all." She chuckled and just swiftly looked at the Fox Golem in her arms, looking it deep into the eyes.
"She's wonderful, thank you, Eisen." The Mist-Spirit explained with a smile and without letting Eisen react in any way, she stepped up next to him, placed her hand onto his shoulder to pull herself up a little, and then planted her lips on the old man's cheek.
And then, Kirisho simply hurried past the old man to not give him the chance to say anything and made her way into the 'Open' grass area inside of this small Dungeon Village, while Eisen turned around and looked at her back surprised, while Sigurd just looked at him with a slight smirk.
"Oh~?" It asked and slightly chuckled, before Eisen just smirked and shook his head. "It's not like that. Anyway... Now that that's done..." The old man said and ended up grinning broadly, "I have the time to work on those, don't I?" Eisen muttered to himself, swiftly stepping through the door out of the reception, directly toward the area where Eisen was usually crafting things, and turned toward Sigurd on his way.
For some reason, he was feeling pretty pumped up at the moment, so he wanted to use this rush of energy to get started with the creation of his Demon-Metal based weapon and Multi-Tool. "Can you get me all of the Yin Metals that we have?" Eisen asked the Core-Guardian, who swiftly nodded its head in response and disappeared in a cloud of mist, while Eisen swiftly set up the Elemental Forge and got his tools ready.
And the moment that Sigurd appeared in front of him with the first few Ingots in hand, the old man got started on his work. Without hesitation he placed them into the forge and waited for them to heat up while he prepared in any other way that he could, either by using his Crafting Space, attuning his Demonic transformation as far toward the Yang side of things as he possibly could to better support the 'Creation' aspect of everything, and then carved the 'Blacksmithing' rune into his chest into the center of his Fullbody enchantment while adding another layer of his element to his body to even further increase his movement.
For a couple of minutes, all that Eisen did was just grab one of the ingots out of the forge and hammered onto it for a moment to see what temperature was best for this metal, and once he figured that out, properly got started.

First things first, Eisen began by folding the metal into each other while using Alchemy-Based compression in a 'New' manner. He already managed to do something similar before, when he was just constantly pushing his mana into the items he was forging every time his hammer hit it, but this time around, he wanted to push his mana forward as if in a 'Wave', similar to what the Potion-Massproduction Machine did when trying to pull some of the more useless parts out of the potion by pressing the useful parts away.
And now, Eisen did the same thing with compression, trying to properly push the large amount of metal into as small a space as he could. He had the proper image in his head, so he knew how far he needed to go to properly shape the metal into that shape.
Like this, the old man both folded the hot Yin metals into each other while also compressing them at the same time, an act which seemed to be surprisingly easy in the manner that he was doing it now. That didn't mean he could compress things much further than before, but at the very least it helped him do so more quickly.
Of course the old man also added a bit of a 'Secret ingredient' in the creation of this, a soul with a special background. He didn't end up finding a soul that let him have the direct shape and size that he wanted for this item, so he figured he could go with this, considering that it still allowed the item to go through ranks. Through his experiments, Eisen managed to find out a bunch of things in regards to how the souls and methods affected the growth, after all.
Either way, soon, Eisen had this large, heavy piece of metal in his hands and had turned it into the right shape that it needed to be, together with the handle and handguard. The only thing that was left now was to figure out if this needed some form of tempering, considering how different this metal was to other metals that Eisen knew of so far.
Letting out a slight sigh, the old man took a close look at it and ran his hands over it, just trying to let his intuition decide. "Alright, I guess I should..." The old man muttered to himself as he made his way over toward the grinding wheels to first grind the edge into the side of this one-edged blade, and then afterward pushed the blade into a tempering oven where he could perfectly control which places it did what at.
And then, Eisen got started with the preparation for the rest that needed to be done, swiftly grabbing a few different precious gems that he figured could be useful, and ended up using some of the reserved pieces of Yin Metal that he didn't integrate into the base weapon itself for them as well, properly combining the ground-down metal with the different ground-down gems to get a single, useful piece.
It was quite dark in color and had a slightly red color to it if you lit it up, which Eisen really didn't mind. And then, Eisen grabbed a chunk of that piece and started to enchant it somehow, in a way that Eisen thought could possibly be risky, although there was nothing left but to try.
Using the Marble Work-Surface, Eisen got started on the enchantment for this gem, which was made up of his Swordsmanship Skill as an Ability enchantment as well as a large-scale, quite detailed enchantment that covered the whole Marble surface, which had a relatively weird pattern to it. In the end, Eisen was pretty sure that surface-wise, more places had been carved down than stayed flat.
And that enchantment had a few general purposes of increasing the item's effect, especially in regards to Swordsmanship and Demonic Actions, while also having a few different spots on it that were supposed to 'connect' to other pieces, four in total, all of them directly lined up with each other. On top of that, it was of course also supposed to take direct control of the growth-change that was going on with Eisen.
Then, Eisen got started on another enchantment while that one was just there on the marble surface. The small part of the 'Yin-Metal Gem' that Eisen placed to the side got a different ability enchantment, the 'Growth Change' ability, as well as a three-dimensional enchantment to properly add onto that. It would be the core of the growth-change for this weapon, as well as the place where a special, tiny piece would be placed to act as a centerpiece for this whole item, even though he didn't exactly add that in yet and had it sitting right next to him.
And then, Eisen placed the rest of the enchantment currently still on the marble surface onto this piece. That turned it quite brittle, as Eisen expected, but he was sure it would be fine considering what he was planning. As the sword itself was done tempering around now, Eisen swiftly got started on the enchantments on this, which would all be based around the hole in the Sword's Body, leading out like webs from four different spots around that hole.
After that, Eisen filled those carvings in with the rest of the Yin-Metal-Gem material that he had and then simply 'popped' those out again with the help of a little bit of minimal transmutation, trying to add another layer of enchanting to everything.
These four 'crystal webs' of enchantments that Eisen now had were all enchanted with the same enchantment as was placed on the outside of the small sphere, which was easy to do with the marble work-surface, and then they were placed back into their specific spots. And at last, the small gem-sphere that Eisen enchanted in two completely different manners and turned quite brittle was placed into the hole in the sword-body and connected to the four webs properly, before Eisen placed the small special piece he had inside of it. And that piece was the 'Soul Nucleus', as Eisen called it.
There was always one more 'central' piece inside of a soul that seemed to act as a central part, so for this Sword, Eisen used anything but that nucleus in the basic creation by for example 'folding it in' or something like that, and placed that Nucleus inside of the small sphere, covering the whole thing up with another, protective layer of the Metal-Gem material.
It had to be protected properly, after all, what Eisen just made was a 'Weapon Core'.
