Chapter 583 - Both Is Good
"From the Dark Continent. There were just lying around, so I just picked them all up as I pleased," Leon casually responded.
However, he was smiling wryly in his heart.
Because of his actions, the Bone Calamity started and caused great disaster for the surrounding tribes in the region.
'There should be about 2 days left until the Darkmoon Tribe's summit meeting with the other tribes of the alliance…" Leon silently mused before he nodded, 'There's more than enough time for me to craft a portable teleportation array.'
'I already know the spatial coordinates of the Darkmoon Tribe's Teleportation Array and the Capital's Teleportation Array… I should make one for the Western Frontier and a few to carry with me. This will allow me to travel to any of these locations instantaneously.'
Leon quietly planned out the items he needed to craft at the forge.
Aside from the portable teleportation arrays, he also intended to make a few other items, such as anti-gravity tools and suppression-nulling devices, for example.
While Leon was pondering, Duke Ignis and the few blacksmiths quickly inspected the ancient bones before their hands tingled with urges to craft immediately.
The sturdiness of the bones and the sharpness of the claws…
The experienced blacksmiths could immediately tell that great weapons could be crafted out of the ancient bones.
Sometime later, Leon finished contemplating and found his own workspace at the forge.
At the same time, Duke Ignis and the other blacksmiths sorted out the ancient bones into different sizes and shapes, forming several small mountains of ancient bones in the area as they kept inventory of the items.
Despite the piles of ancient bones presented in the area, it was only a fraction of what Leon took out of his Worldspace.
'I'm not sure if father-in-law and the others will be able to handle the shock if I unload everything… I should also keep some for myself, just in case I need to craft something during the journey later…' Leon mused.
After watching Duke Ignis and the others for a moment, Leon began formulating the design for his portable teleportation array with ancient bones as the raw ingredient.
Once Leon settled on a design in his mind, he pulled out several more ancient bones of very specific sizes and shapes.
Just as Leon was about to commence his work, his sharp senses detected a person silently sneaking up behind him on tippy-toes.
It was Duna.
"What were you planning to do?" Leon queried with a sly smile after turning his head before his eyes brightened.
Duna became more beautiful despite appearing seemingly the same. Perhaps, a change in her disposition, aura, or…
'Seems like she succeeded in whatever she was doing…' He thought after noticing her fleshly body.
Although Leon knew True Grandmist Energy could become anything, it was still very skillful of Duna to successfully transform it into human flesh.
As expected of someone with a Devil Soul Fragment.
After being called out, Duna straightened herself with a calm look before she nonchalantly spat, "Nothing in particular. It's not like I was trying to surprise you or anything. Don't overthink it."
"Is that right?" Leon smiled widely in question.
Duna averted her gaze, but their gaze met after she snuck a glance shortly after.
"What are you looking at? Stop asking and pass me some clothes! I need new clothes!" Duna suddenly barked after getting caught.
"If you need clothes, you should ask Aria… I'm sure that she carries quite a few sets of spare clothes inside her Interspatial Ring… Why would you ask me? I don't have any women's clothing on me," Leon was taken aback.
"Just pass me one of your set of spare clothes! Would I be asking you otherwise?" Duna frown before she said, "I don't want to ask her."
"Oh?" Leon was surprised by Duna's words before his brows wrinkled in question, "Did you two had a fight or something?"
"No fights. I just don't want to, okay?" Duna responded.
Nevertheless, after Leon took out a set of white clothes from his Worldspace and passed it over to Duna, she immediately accepted the clothes before disappearing off into an empty tent to change.
Sometime later, Leon saw Duna returning before he suddenly had a thought, 'Could it be that Duna and Aria don't get along because one is an evil spirit and the other possesses the lightning attribute?'
The more he thought about this, the more he felt that it was likely the case. He was reminded of Rachel and Lynne's interaction.
'Hmm…' Leon hummed for a moment.
Shortly after, he shook his head. Duna and Aria's matter did not seem like something he could do something about.
'Let's just focus on crafting the portable teleportation arrays for now.' Leon decided to push back the issue for another time.
Throwing Duna a glance, Leon had to admit that she looked stunning, even while wearing men's clothing.
"I might not have said it yet, but congratulations on your advancement, Duna," Leon suddenly.
"Mm, it was all thanks for you." Duna nodded.
Her nice response gave Leon a mild surprise before she grew close to his ears and whispered, "But now there's a problem."
"What kind of problem?" Leon was startled.
"I will have a constant thirst for fresh blood due to my Devil Spirit Body's current stage." Duna did not hide her problem from Leon and added, "I am telling you because I know you will not let me kill some soldiers to satiate my thirst, so you need to think of a solution for me."
"I see…" Leon frowned in thought before he asked, "Can you wait until we set out for the Wildlands? There will be plenty of beasts to satiate your hunger then."
"I can wait, but I can't promise that someone won't die due to my bloodthirst getting out of control." Duna casually responded.
Leon's frown deepened for a moment before he asked, "Do you want to suck some of my blood to relieve the thirst for now, or will True Grandmist Energy resolve the problem?"
"Hmm… both is good." Duna licked her lips charmingly while wrapping her arms around Leon's neck before she suddenly asked for confirmation, "Are you sure I can drink your blood?"
"It'll be great if you don't try to suck me dry," Leon said wryly.
At the same time, he began to ponder her issue further in his mind. Did Duna evolve into an undead or something?
