Unfriendly Energy

Ves looked exasperated at his gear. After performing dozens of hasty experiments, he failed to accomplish anything productive.

By now, the high-end elemental energy locked inside the Unending Regalia and the Hammer of Brilliance had dropped by more than 40 percent. The metal energy was as powerful if not more than universal life energy, but possessed much harsher properties.

Whereas universal life energy got along with anything and was extremely easy to merge with other forms of spiritual energy, metal energy was the opposite.

It was like a raging bull and could not be controlled at all. Whether it was because of Ves and Blinky's insufficient strength or lack of familiarity, the metal energy siphoned from Cassandra Breyer acted like a prisoner who would rather die than submit!

"How the hell can humans even harness this powerful and unruly energy?" Ves wondered.
