Every one give a round TheOnceUnknown a round of applause for editting this chapter.I dont know how long it would have taken me to do it but he saved me a bunch of times, Thank him the next time you see him.
__________________________________________________________________________________
I don't know how long it's been since I came to this place, but, if I were to guess, I would say that it has been roughly 3 months.
Shortly after The God of Smithing left, I found out that not all the books he provided were about blacksmithing and metallurgy, in fact, one of the 2 bookshelves had books that were solely dedicated to facts about, what I could only assume, would be my new home.
Some of the fun facts that were hidden in those books included that there was going to be more than just one race present on my new planet; from what I read it seems that it is inhabited by elves, demons, beastmen , humans, and draconic, which, based on the name, seem to be a dragon-like race. The books also had a lot of information regarding the world's history which included such things as wars. Those same books also mentioned that the races get along with each other; however, crimes, such as slavery, run rampant (in this regard, I suspect there is more hostility between the races than what meets the eye).
Yet, the other books included information about mana- manipulation, and, while reading about it, I learned that everything in my new world has mana, whether it is living or non-living, a fact that I plan to fully abuse while I am crafting my new body.
I also found out that I learn extremely fast in this realm, and while I don't currently know why that is, I can only assume that I will learn about that later. Furthermore, I also decided that I would learn all the languages present on my new home so that I would always understand what my user, and those around them, were saying. It only took me about a month to learn the 5 main languages and the 15 branch languages that I might encounter on my new planet.
Finally, after I finished learning about my new home, I delved into the knowledge the other bookshelf offered about metallurgy and blacksmithing (which surprisingly enough did hold techniques I had never heard about), I even researched the ores that would be present on my new planet. I was slightly surprised that it took me three months to learn all of this information, although I guess it would have taken much longer outside of this realm.
After I finished reading, I decided to begin working on my new body.
I began planning and working on a "katana" like the one I had made when I was alive. It's a one sided sword that empathizes slashing and sharpness. Since I will likely be stuck with this new body for a long time, I decided to make it the best it could be, I even made a checklist of what I want to achieve when I'm crafting it!
~The needs for My New Body~
1. A Teleportation Enchantment - The reason for this is so I don't end up in the hands of a man ( do I even need to explain why I would hate that?).
2. Advanced mana/Presence detection - The reason for this is that I won't be able to see like I currently do, for that reason, I need a way to sense my surroundings.

3. A way to stop dulling and rusting- I don't know what conditions I will be in before I am found, and, I don't know if my new owner will even know how to maintain a sword. I think it's better to be safe than sorry. I wasn't able to find a material to stop rusting, but I was able to find a material that will always stay sharp (I don't trust that rumor, but I do hope that the material does sport a large durability).
4.Add as many enchantments and as much magic as I can to myself- I won't be just a one- trick pony, I will add runes to both my sword and sheath( including one that releases magic attacks when I am drawn, I plan for the effects to linger for about 10 minutes, to change the attack type, my user will have to re-draw me).
5.Put a woman's grip on the sword (optional)- You know why...
6. Have an abundant storehouse for mana- This is to put as little strain on my user as possible and, it is necessary so that I will be able to fully use my enchantments and magic.
7. Make Myself God-Damned Beautiful- There is no need for an explanation as to why I want this...
8. Create a Binding Rune/ Magic- If I ever get stolen, with this, I will be able to teleport myself back to my user's hand. (THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT I AM ENDING UP IN A MAN'S HAND!)
9. Find a way to communicate with my user(optional)- I haven't found a way to achieve this goal yet, but I would be much more helpful if I could communicate with my user.
10.Intimidating Aura/ Hidden Aura- This will allow me to not only stay out of the reach of men but it will also let me scare away dangers. The Hidden aura will allow me to hide my presence whether for stealth or for when I just don't want to stand out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been 3 months since I started making prototypes of my new body. Let's just say that crafting has had its up and downs. At the moment, I have only been able to complete 8 out of my 10 objectives, I still haven't figured out what to for objectives 3 and 9, but, even with this unforeseen difficulty, I will not be daunted.
The God of Smithing also dropped by today, and after catching up with him, I told him about the problems I was having. After hearing my issues, he said he would give me a hint regarding one of them if I gave up a month of my allotted time. I unhesitatingly agreed, and decided I wanted a hint about how to solve my 3rd objective. His answer was to simply give me an ancient book and leave ( with an evil grin upon his face I might add).
I almost tore open the book, but, upon reading it, the book simply said that if a soul was bound inside of a weapon, it would then gain 10X the durability that it would normally have, no matter what material was used to craft it. Upon seeing this I almost immediately shouted [I've been had] to which I heard a soft chortle from somewhere off in the distance.

Even though I was tricked, I did feel a bit better knowing the life of my sword wouldn't be at stake (figuratively). I then went and used this past month to start forging my masterpiece. I used a forging method similar to the one I had used when I was alive to make and temper the Damascus Steel, except, this style had more "shizwas up the wazu". The real reason I used this style was because it allowed me to combine metals perfectly. Normally I wouldn't have been able to use this style due to the massive amount of mana that would have been required; however, in this realm, almost anything was possible.
The metals I'm fusing together with this method are endurium ( the metal with the rumors that claimed it gave everlasting durability and strength) , azeath ( a metal which can draw in mana from its surroundings; it also holds the most mana out of any of the ores that were available), and evolitium ( a metal that is both extremely sharp and extremely lightweight). Each of the metals I used were so rare that the books that mentioned them claimed that they were either myths or that they just plain didn't exist. After fusing them together, I began forging my soul's vessel.
When I finished my arduous task of forging both the sword and its sheath, a blue screen popped up asking if I wanted to view the statistics of my newly made items. I didn't completely understand what the box was asking me, but I was shocked when I saw the fruits of my labor...

description
This sword was forged to be the perfect sword. Its beauty and simplicity give it an almost divine feel. you might assume that a god crafted this sword. The craftsmen of this sword died many years ago but for some strange reason, he didn't want the sword's owner to be a man. The craftsman of the sword remains unknown. The craftsman never named his creation, instead wishing that the sword's owner would bestow a fitting name upon it.

if bound and the owner desires to, when drawing, the sword can release a mana based slash attack that draws from its mana pool, the type of magic chosen will stay on the blade which will add extra damage if the target is weak against it. the types of magic you can attack with are...
fire
water
wind
lightning
special magic
upon drawing the sword, if darkness magic is chosen, the owner can create an illusion of themselves (sort of like clones) to trick the enemy. the total number of clones depends on owner's affinity.
upon drawing the sword, if light magic is chosen the owner's healing speed is increased by 10% and they can create a healing aura that can heal allies. the amount of healing provided to allies depends on the owners affinity. this mode also deals higher damage to unholy creations and undead.
special effects
if the owner is a woman ,the sheath increases charm and beauty by 30%
description
This sheath was meant to house a extremely valuable sword that has unimaginable strength. This sheath could almost be classified as a weapon by itself. Its beauty knows no limits and is it unparallel to anything previously created by man. The craftsmen is unknown but they wanted the sheath to simply be named sheath (for simplicity). The craftsman also wanted this [] sheath, just like the sword it holds, to only be touched by the hands of a woman.
.
With tears in my eyes I look at the windows and almost shouted...
[This is everything I could ever hope for in a sword!]
It was true, I couldn't hope for a better sword, especially not with the time I had left.
After I was done admiring my work, I took the sword and placed it within its sheath. The moment it clicked, The God of Smithing appeared and asked if I was ready to go.
I had one final thing I wanted to request of him, so I asked...
[Can I make one final request?]
[Hmm... what would you like?]
[Can you have it so that my owner will be a woman?]
[Well, that really isn't my field of expertise, but, The Goddess of Fate does owe me a favor for creating a sword for her champion. I must warn you though, she likes to play dirty and will grant your wish, just not in the way you hoped. If you give her a offering it might better your chances though.]
Without any hesitation, I asked if I could use my remaining time to make a gift for The Goddess of Fate.
He would allow me to make her gifts, but he once again warned me that she was very picky about her gifts, but, before he had a chance to offer me any advice about how to make the gifts, I stopped him, telling him that I had already thought of the perfect gifts for her. He sighed then left with an amused simile plastered across his face.
With my remaining time, I put all of my skill and perseverance into the gifts I would give to the goddess, even more effort than I put into making the sword.
I'm not sure how much time I have left or even how much time I had already spent on making her gifts, I didn't stop once, not even to look over my work. I had to make it perfect the first time, there was no room for error, my new life depended on it!
[I WILL NOT END UP IN THE HANDS OF A MAN!!!]
