To the God of Darkness, Elric replied with only two words… "Fuck off!" Now forced with the possibility of a new life despite his unwillingness… Elric must decide whether to become a puppet or forge a new destiny with his own hands.

Final Test

Deities of Blacksmithing suddenly talked about a final test, that Kahn and Blackwall were oblivious to. The latter side had their ears perked up and asked… 

"But didn't you already say we were going to be your Apostle?" 

"A white lie. To make you think that you were already going to be chosen." responded Eitri in an unapologetic tone. 

"You don't treat Blacksmithing as just some craft but a part of existence. 

You don't wish to master some skills for the sake of your pride or achievements to create a future. 

But you think of it as an integral part of reality. That kind of mindset… even many of the most legendary blacksmiths in the world failed to achieve that in the past. 

Just by that outlook you both have on this craft shows the premise of your future potential." said Eitri. 

The furnace in the middle of the room then dimmed down as if receiving some sort of instruction. 

This time, Brokkr continued with a somber expression.
