Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army 314 Selling Beauty

Thanks to this little invention Reina got herself shards of kindness and support, Lili got herself a few shards of bravery, Ophelia got a few shards related to medicine and fertility, Kitty refused shards of loyalty and dedication, while sarah did not get anything that could accept her, most likely because she did not know her calling herself, there some affinity with the shards of family and community but nothing accepted her directly. Debauchery members chose to not take any shards of divinity for the same reason, they wanted their divinity to be born inside them, they did not accept that the shards were just shards that helped them link to the domain, otherwise they had no further effect on the host, according to leader, they did not know what their divinity would be and they wanted to at least figure it out before hosting any shards of divinity.

In the mortal realm, this little balsam that was sold in tiny bottles was being sold at ludicrous prices, this was the mother load for many females, no matter how ugly you look, with enough of this thing, you can be as pretty as a G.o.ddess of beauty or even prettier of you had more than enough. While the outside world was scrambling for a bottle of the stuff, the girls at home had somehow made Balin and Yunan create a pool that actively generated that balsam for them to bath in daily.

With just looking at Yunan turning into a young master from just absorbing the spiritual energy from the ectoplasm and drinking the lava wine produced with that ectoplasm in it, you can imagine how, soft and delicate the girls became after bathing daily in the stuff, Fae had never been in a better mood since the day Yunan met her for such a long period of time, she even stopped playing along with Balin and Dustan and their antiques. With such a good view to look at all day long, the happiness levels increased in the house exponentially.

Other than the vast riches that our family had acc.u.mulated and did not know what to do with, Yunan and Balin finally completed the basic structure of the floating battle fortress, when the last hammer strike was struck, both Yunan heard a message they would never believed to hear before. "Dwarven smithing has upgraded to divine Dwarven smithing, a new path of divinity created, G.o.dhood over the Dwarven ways of smithing is now possible for explorer Balin", "heavenly smithing had upgraded to divine smithing, a new path created, G.o.dhood over all smithing is now possible for wise prowler Yunan".

Under the applause of Hephaestus and the validation he gave on the marvelous product, even though it was just the basic structure it was fully functioning fort, with docking stations for the mechs under development, mana cannons that could effectively cast certain spells, the floating ability and the defence that not even Martin was able to scratch at full power, the two had successfully completed a work beyond their power hence the corresponding reward. Hephaestus was so intrigued by the ingenuity of the design and surprising functionality, that he kept hovering over the two as they built it day by day. Although the two did not know how to create a functional sentient item, they had a genie who could split some of its sentience and lend it to the battle fortress, the pseudo sentient system created by the genie was upgradable and was focused entirely on efficiency and combat mastery.

Yunan took the fort to play with in the 55th floor and could not help but smile like a fool, it was based on Dragonification, it could grow and evolve the more combat it faces, and the more items and monsters it digests. Yunan immediately sent it with the pets to let it start from the lower floor and advance it module as much as possible, it was also a test for the durability of the item and how it would overcome many situation.

It was time to focus on the battle mechs at the moment, since the trading outpost was a constant supply of items, ingredients and money, the two smith did not care about literally burning money while trying to forge the battle mechs, and when they were done it was a glorious day to behold. The hardest problem was not to ensure that the mechs could stand and walk, any metal golem could do that, the hardest part was making it respond as fast as a natural body as well as link to the sense and thoughts of the user, mental link was the spell that would be used, but that was not all, they had to work on making the mech feel like it was a secondary body rather than a battle armor.

The first prototype was to be driven telepathically, however the response time had some lag no matter how they tried it, when finally they made the mental link to a full body link, it started to work better, and bit by bit the kinks and glitches were ironed out, leaving behind a prototype that anyone can use, even the pets, it was made with a neural link and a mental link, it had a c.o.c.kpit that was basically a 3 dimensional free movement control system, it would link to the user immediately upon entry, giving them use of all its functions, since it was easier to have all screens pop inside the mind of the user it was a marvelous product, that could run, jump, fly, and swim, it could even dance as gracefully as a ballerina, well as gracefully as the driver could dance in reality, the mech was made so that it would mimic the user perfectly.

If the mech upgraded the ability of the user, it would become useless to train and grow with one's own body, therefore, it was made to mimic the user would force the user to go forward and gain more strength, the prototype was not able to cast spells yet and was purely a bodily combat item, and a b.l.o.o.d.y good one that was worth the year it took to produce, luckily the same week after the finalized prototype was finished testing, the battle fortress has made its way to the 50th floor, averaging a week per floor and gaining so much combat experience it was on par with an ordinary adventurers.
