"Metal element bloodline, huh?"
The elderly mage lady turned toward Fort with mild curiosity, clearly intrigued by Francis's earlier remark. Her wise eyes scanned Fort up and down for a few moments before she gave a definitive nod.
"Indeed," she confirmed. "Not only is it a genuine metal element bloodline, but the resonance is exceptionally high. Your fusion with the element is seamless… hmm."
She tapped her chin thoughtfully before continuing, "With that level of affinity, it's no wonder weapons don't suit you. Honestly, with your current physique alone, you're already as powerful as most enchanted gear."
She paused and then smiled gently.
"Well, since I didn't prepare a weapon for you, how about this instead?" She reached into her robes once more and produced a shimmering vial filled with swirling golden liquid.
