Ch 76: Mythical Metals.
"Warn me before you do some-" Hephaestus begins then feels where the curse mark was on her face.
"You healed it?" Hephaestus asks only to see Kyra/Sun looking at her with a grin.
"Yep, I'm not one of the most immortal gods for a reason." Kyra says pulling a tea kit seemingly out of nowhere.
"Thank you." Hephaestus says ignoring Kyra's self gloating.
"Wait? Is this all you came here for?" Tsubaki asks
"Nope, I wanted to talk about armor and upgrading my Familia's weapons. Although their designs are intricate and well designed it's made with simple metals." Kyra says
"Could I see?" Hephaestus asks
"I only have my captains weapon on me at the moment. Her weapon is the best material wise and everyone else is in the dungeon. I also have a few designs I think you might like for new weapons however it's power is scary so I don't think we should release them." Kyra says
"They can't be that bad?" Tsubaki says questioningly.
However Hephaestus remains quiet she knows better. Sun might as well be a god of chaos.
"Do you have a discreet place I could show you?" Kyra asks pouring tea for both of them.
"We have a room near my forge I case I make any magical weapons. How about you show me your captain's weapon first?" Hephaestus asks taking the cup of tea.
"Okay." Kyra says as a scythe appears in her hand.
Tsubaki just looks at Hephaestus asking how Sun/Kyra manages to do that.
"It's better if you just ignore it." Hephaestus says while looking at the scythe intrigued.
"What metal is that? It seems like Aluminum mixed with another type of metal maybe Titanium?" Hephaestus asked intrigued noticing the alloy with help from her divinity.
"Yep it's a metal alloy, a pretty strong and flexible one." Kyra says while Hephaestus has the look of horror on her face.
"What?" Kyra asks confused
"How does that not warp and bend into nothing!?" Hephaestus asks
'Right Grimm don't really damage weapons with their bodies. Titanium would be horrible for a weapon in this word.' Kyra thinks remembering the metals property. 'I should have kept the carbon steel one for this world.' Kyra says
"We need to upgrade that! The metal is amazing for armor, but horrible for contact based weapons." Hephaestus says shocked
"What would you recommend?" Kyra asks
"I mean the design is amazing! It seems like it can fold up and I also don't know what the mechanism in the handle can do. Besides the materials it is a top tier weapon. Normally since it's just a material change I would recommend steel. But since it is your captain, and you have enough money we could go with Adamantite, Adamantine, Mythril, or even Orichalcum." Hephaestus says
"Any other metals we could use?" Kyra asks excitedly.
"That's the limit that could be used here." Hephaestus says kinda sadly.
"Why are you offering her those metals goddess?" Tsubaki asks
Hephaestus suddenly takes off her bandages surrounding one of her eyes.
"Because she did what no other god could do." Hephaestus says
"Could I forge it with you?" Kyra asks
"I want to say no however I have a feeling you won't take that for an answer." Hephaestus says with a sigh.
"So? The weapon you invented that you don't want to release because it's too powerful?" Tsubaki asks
"Did you really make something?" Hephaestus asks
"I had to do something while trapped under a mountain for.... how long was I under there for?" Kyra says
"A long long time." Hephaestus says
"So yeah I made things and learned stuff to me my self sane." Kyra says as an excuse for using tech from RWBY and earth.
Hephaestus puts down her tea cup.
"Put your scythe away, lets go see this new weapon you made." Hephaestus says
"Okay? You bringing her too?" Kyra asks looking at Tsubaki.
"Yes, I wouldn't mind if you brought your captain aswell." Hephaestus says
"Oh, she's busy harassing the Freya familia. Since my newest members were attacked by them recently." Kyra says
Hephaestus just turns around and looks at Kyra.
"You didn't go postal?" Hephaestus asks shocked
"Well my captain is an Ozaru, so they are going to have enough issues dealing with her anyway." Kyra says
"Your telling me one of the immortal monkeys left the island with you?" Hephaestus asks shocked.
"She was a younger one and wanted to experience the outside world. I mean she's only level 6 not like the others that have broken the limit of the Falna." Kyra says to cover for herself.
"I feel sorry for the Freya familia but it's been along time coming." Hephaestus says while Tsubaki has been in silent shock. Having no idea what they are talking about, but what she does understand scares her.
"This is the room here." Hephaestus says as they walk into a brick room with a training dummy in the center.
"How thick are the walls?" Kyra asks
