Lubbock replied respectfully, "Your Highness, the people you asked us to look out for have arrived in the Imperial Capital. I have brought them all."
Upon hearing this, Lin Che stopped what he was doing and looked behind Lubbock.
Indeed, they looked pretty much like they did in the anime.
Lin Che said to Tatsumi, "You are Tatsumi, right? You came to the Imperial Capital to alleviate the plight of your village?"
Tatsumi showed a shocked expression and stammered, "How... how did you... know?"
Lin Che chuckled and said, "You don't need to know how I know. I'm asking you now, do you want to work for me and achieve great things?"
Tatsumi and the other two exchanged glances, then nodded and knelt down in unison, saying, "We do!"
Lin Che nodded with satisfaction and said, "Lubbock, send Tatsumi and Ieyasu to the City Defense Force and have Brand train them well. Send Sayo to the Ministry of Personnel and have her learn the ways of officialdom under Najeta."
"Yes!" Lubbock clasped his fists and accepted the order, then took Tatsumi and the other two to the City Defense Force and the Ministry of Personnel.
Tatsumi can be heavily relied upon, but he is still a novice now and has a lot to learn.
As for Sayo and Ieyasu, Lin Che didn't know them well.
After all, both of them died at the beginning of the original work.
However, Lin Che didn't care whether they were capable or worth cultivating; as long as they were kind-hearted, they could be heavily relied upon.
Lin Che looked at Tatsumi and the others leaving and thought about other usable talents in the original work.
It seems that all the usable characters in the main story have been recruited by him, except for the leader of the Path of Peace, there are no other usable people.
Oh, right, there's also the Imperial Fist Temple, and the Rakshasa Four Demons.
Although the Rakshasa Four Demons also did many evil deeds, they were all acting on the Minister's orders.
As long as they are willing to be loyal to him, he can give them a chance to live.
It seems that's all the characters. Although there were some talented characters in the prequel, they are all dead.
Lin Che couldn't help but think of Akame's former teammates, the elite and reinforced units of the Imperial Assassination Squad, and the Revolutionary Army's Auberg Assassination Organization.
The prequel's plot was very exciting, no less than the main story.
It's a pity he couldn't travel back to that time period.
Lin Che sighed, feeling a bit regretful.
Suddenly, a thought flashed in his mind, and he thought of Lady Aisha from The Godslayer world.
She seemed to have a 권능 called 'Fairy Corridor', which was usurped from Niamh, the queen of the Celtic Everlasting Country, her third authority.
This authority can return to the past, and even travel to parallel worlds.
If he had this authority, wouldn't he be able to go back to the prequel timeline and recruit all the elite and reinforced units of the Imperial Assassination Squad, as well as the Revolutionary Army's Auberg Assassination Organization?
Not only that, if he used this authority in The Dungeon World and went back to the past, could he save the Astraea Familia and bring Ryu Lion's teammates into the Hestia Familia?
If the timeline went back even further, could he save Bell's aunt, the woman who was legendary and called a 'talent monster'!
Thinking of this, Lin Che's breathing couldn't help but quicken.
If all these characters could really be recruited into the Hestia Familia, then even without him, a Godslayer, the Hestia Familia could instantly become the largest Familia in Orario!
Achieving that level could be considered repaying Hestia for her recognition and kindness towards him!
However, to obtain the authority of "Fairy Corridor", he still needed 5000 points.
The points were too high, he couldn't afford it at all.
Unless he went to the Godslayer world again and killed a deity.
Relying on check-ins to accumulate, five thousand points required checking in for 500 days, a full year and a half!
...
Lin Che let Akame and Black Eyes practice their sword skills by themselves, while he came to the national treasury alone.
Recently, because Esdeath had annihilated all the foreign races, she had sent all their collections back to the Imperial Capital.
These collections included Teigu and Teigu that had been lost from the Empire, as well as many rare metals.
For example, Orichalcum used to forge Teigu!
Of course, this Orichalcum was different from the Orichalcum in The Dungeon World.
Although the name was the same, the essence was different metals.
However, they all had one common characteristic, which was hardness!
In addition to a large number of rare metals, there were also the long-lost forging secrets of Teigu from the Empire.
Of course, these secret arts collected by the foreign races were not complete, they were scattered.
Lin Che took the secret arts collected by the three major foreign races and the secret arts preserved by the Empire, and actually successfully combined them into a complete forging secret art.
This made him overjoyed, and he eagerly began to learn.
Because he had a foundation as a blacksmith, coupled with the scanning and analysis ability of "Unlimited Blade Works", Lin Che learned very quickly.
It didn't take much effort to completely learn it, which also made his forging technology reach a higher level.
Lin Che selected the materials he needed from the national treasury, as well as a Philosopher's Stone, and left.
He came to the place where the royal weapons were forged, drove away all the blacksmiths, and then began forging.
This time, he directly used Divine Flame to melt the rare metals.
This included Orichalcum. In addition to the Orichalcum from Akame ga Kill! World, Lin Che also added Orichalcum from The Dungeon World, as well as Mithril!
Multiple different metals were difficult to fuse, but under his Alchemy Magic, they still fused together, turning into a super alloy.
Then Lin Che took out Udaeus's Black Sword, which was a weapon dropped by Udaeus, the Floor Boss of the 37th floor of the Underground City.
In the original work, Ota of the Freya Familia used it as raw material to forge a "Black Sword of Supremacy", worth 410 million!
This was more than double the price of Bell's 200 million dagger in the original work!
Of course, Bell's dagger was just a friendship price, the real price was definitely higher.
But even if it was higher, it couldn't be worth 400 million, right?
Lin Che used Divine Flame again to melt Udaeus's Black Sword.
Then, with the Philosopher's Stone as the core, he fused it with the super alloy.
Finally, it was time to shape the weapon.
Lin Che didn't have much artistic talent, so he still chose to copy the weapons from "Genshin Impact".
This time, he copied the "End of the Wolf"!
Of course, it was not the broken "End of the Wolf", but the complete version of the "End of the Wolf"!
After the forging was successful, Lin Che felt that this sword was infinitely close to an artifact.
"From now on, your name will be 'End of the Wolf'!" Lin Che was too lazy to change the name, so he used the original name.
Lin Che left the national treasury and flew directly into the sky, then headed to the Kiebrunora Forest.
This was a primeval Forest that stretched as far as the eye could see, with countless towering trees forming a green ocean.
In this Forest, lived countless dangerous species.
Even legendary super dangerous species that were almost extinct were likely to exist.
Lin Che flew above the Forest, and his vast mental power spread out.
Soon, he sensed a special grade dangerous species.
Lin Che took a step, shrinking the ground into inches, and instantly arrived in front of it.
This was a giant ape, whose size was comparable to King Kong in "Godzilla".
It seemed that its rest had been disturbed by Lin Che, and this ape was very angry.
It let out a roar, and its huge palm slapped towards Lin Che.
Lin Che smiled slightly, didn't dodge, and directly punched out with his fist.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the gorilla's hand was sent flying back, while Lin Che remained motionless.
The gorilla became even more irritable from the pain.
It clasped its hands together, forming a hammerhead, and smashed it down at Lin Che.
Lin Che grinned, took out the End of the Wolf, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
"Today I will use you to test my sword!"
As he spoke, he slashed at the gorilla with his sword.
In this attack, he didn't use any Godly Power, nor did he use skills, magic, or authority.
He simply swung his sword with pure physical strength!
With a single slash, the End of the Wolf erupted with black and red sword energy, like the "Getsuga Tensho" in "Bleach", directly engulfing the gorilla.
When the sword energy dissipated, the gorilla was split in half, deader than dead.
"Not bad, very sharp!" Lin Che was very satisfied with this newly forged weapon.
So next, he found a few more special grade dangerous species in the Forest to test his sword.
Unfortunately, he didn't find any super dangerous species, and special grade dangerous species couldn't fully test the weapon's limit.
After throwing the End of the Wolf into "Unlimited Blade Works", Lin Che flew back to the Imperial Palace.
Next, he began to forge weapons without limit.
Teigu and Teigu, he forged them all.
Then he integrated the technology of forging Teigu and Teigu into the forging technology of The Dungeon World.
And the forging technology of magic sword was also integrated together.
Taking the essence and discarding the dross.
Creating his own unique forging technique!
If the materials were not enough, he would contact Roxy and the others who were on an expedition in The Dungeon World, and ask them to send him the materials dropped from killing monsters through group red envelopes.
If he lacked rare materials, he would borrow points in the group and buy them in the mall.
Just like that, Lin Che was immersed in forging every day.
A week later, he finally integrated the forging techniques he had learned, and even integrated Alchemy Magic (Alchemy) into it, creating a set of forging techniques unique to him.
