The folding method used in making of Japaneese katana's wasn't a revolutionary or specially effective method. It was the only option they had to work with the poor quality metal that was present on their island. The rest is pretty much nerdish culture doing its magic of mystificying everything that's related to Japaneese history. It sounds cool, but actually had little to no effect of the quality if you can get yourself good quality steel to begin with. Then again, who am I to say that MC reached the peak of his ability to craft? :3

Read to find out :D What I can tell is that this part wasn't written randomly just to sound cool, but is a legitimate part of the story :3 (although, if you check your last paragraph comments, you might start seeing some connections)

Thanks for the good word! The cover is ai-made, so I wouldn't be surprised if there were others like it

This part is intentionally convoluted and not really clear yet.

I do that at times >.> But trying not to if I don't really have to

Soon.(TM)

Its a Scythe and (from the benefit of hindsight) its coming

I never really thought about it like that but well, in a sense... yeah >.>

I do not keepo the detailed records of everything for this novel (like, what chapter comes with what advances) so I can't say for sure but from the top of my head, I believe this here is a typo, consistiency mistake. And as far as I remember, yes, you are absolutely right, it should be sixth stage, my bad!

Okay, I've got it (purely off my memory, but still!) The difference is, yes, Tim already crafted a working example of a Qi-converted that can be plugged directly into the network. But that was him crafting while under the influence of his constituion. On the other hand, the devices he made around this chapter are made with his hands only. In other words, this is the first device that he himself made, without relying on the crutch of his constitution. That's as far as I remember the case being, so I hope it clarified everything!
