"How can I help you? I cannot host you since my body is only on the fifth level, and even if I could, I would not".Austin spoke, with a hint of coldness, as he knew an incarnation that had fulfilled its creator's will was now free and was on the brink of vanishing, but this one seemed unwilling. "Don't be so cold, you wanted to go to the dwarves' domain, right? I have a teleportation array ahead. Just let me reside in your sword as a sword spirit, since it hasn't manifested one, and I will be able to go outside without attracting the universal laws.
Austin more or less understood that if the incarnation bore ill intent, it couldn't have helped him against the sword ghoul, but it never hurt to be cautious, so he unsheathed his sword, wiped away his soul imprint, and tossed it towards the ethereal incarnation, who jumped into it, and the sword floated back. "This metal essence is too low quality, you just got the best one, let's hurry up to the dwarves' domain and reforge this sword so that this king can finally express his sharpness".
Hearing a weapon talk with such a snicker made Austin twitch his eye, but he sheathed the sword and walked towards the array, took out several high-quality mana crystals, stood on the array and placed them on it, and teleported, listening to a talking sword which was mocking the metal essence that he could not house a sword like him.
Far deeper in the Magic beast domain, a tall wall with short bearded figures guarding the gate. "When is this damned war going to end? I just want to smelt some weapons and drink some alcohol !! These humans are always waging war against us, even after we moved into the magical beasts' domain."The war started after that high human visited us, invoking the oath between our ancestors, but we cannot go against it, since it was our founder who swore !!"
As these two figures were conversing, several miles away from the gate, in some ruin with a deteriorated pentagram array, appeared a youth who had a tired look, long silver hair tied up, and looked towards the gate.
