After he met with the giant man, Levian stood there confused.
Nothing was making sense to him.
The entity had mentioned ascending, which was a known thing in the world. Many people had passed the basic ranking of bronze to platinum and ascended to a more powerful ranking system entirely.
However, the giant's other words had suggested that there was a tier of weapons above mythical.
Levian had never heard of such a thing.
Mythical was a tier of weapons owned by only the most powerful people in the world. Of course, some chose not to fight with a weapon; however, if they did, a mythical weapon would be what they hoped to get their hands on.
If there is truly a tier above, then how would someone go about achieving such a thing?
...
The Godsmith Class. Could it possibly be the method?
With his mastery now at 75% and only requiring one last mythical weapon creation before completion, Levian was now filled with a new level of enthusiasm that he had never felt before.
He hurried over to the weapon rack and took two more of training weapons into his soulspace, turning them into legendaries.
I promise I'll restock the weapons soon...
After fusing the two legendaries, he summoned his mythical once again.
At this point, he was now in possession of six Mythical weapons, which realistically, would make him one of the richest men in existence.
This alone would make him a target of many powerful figures if the news spread too far.
[Mythical Weapon Acquired!]
[AN ENTITY IS APPROACHING!]
I'm getting used to this now, system.
The weapon that was summoned into his hand was different from the others he had summoned.
It's name was Abyss Bullet.
It was a small throwing axe that resembled a shadow. Its talent would allow him to throw the weapon, and have another one reappear in his hand at the same instant.
At the same time the weapon summoned, Levian felt an immense change taking place within his body. It was as though new blood flowed through his veins, purifying him.
But before he could focus on that, he had to deal with the new entity.
Unlike the giant man, this was another entity that did not speak. It seemed to be a mere gust of wind that carried a living presence.
The wind grew thick like fog, blowing Levian and making him stumble over the training grounds. At some point, he spotted a set of eyes within the mist, but after only a few moments, it all faded away, leaving him alone once again.
Levian controlled his breathing and withdrew the throwing axe into his soulspace.
Six weapons now resided in there, but the pressure would wear away soon.
Levian focused on his system and was bombarded with a lot of information.
[Mastery Path Awakened!]
[Talent Awakened: Godforge!]
[(XL) Godforge ~ The ability to craft Primordial Weapons.]
Levian couldn't believe what he was reading. The revelation was more surprising than finding out that he was an elf.
A Primordial Weapon?
A new area in his system opened up to him once he focused on his class mastery.
—The Godforge—
Primordial Weapon Creation Progress: 0/5 Requirements Completed
[Legacies: 0]
A Legacy is the origin story of a Primordial Weapon. These weapons have existed since the dawn of time. To begin forging one, you must uncover its tale using TRUTH.
[Elemental Orbs Charged: 0]
All Primordials are bound to an element. Defeat enemies of a matching element to collect charges. These must be stored in the Godforge. The element must align with the Legacy.
[Archetypes: 6]
Select a Mythical weapon as the Archetype for your creation. It must match the weapon type described in the Legacy.
[Power Source: 6]
Place five Mythical weapons around the forge in a sacred circle. Their essence will empower the creation of the Primordial.

Levian was overwhelmed.
The new information was difficult to process, and thousands of thoughts were running through his mind.
After a few moments, he managed to gather his thoughts.
So, as the Godsmith, I've been granted access to a system that allows me to create weapons beyond what has been believed to be the highest tier of weapons.
These weapons have existed since the beginning of time, and it seems that I must find their stories using TRUTH. That means that before I can access the godforge, I'll need to become platinum rank.
Collecting elemental charges isn't too difficult, but it will require me to hunt dungeons.
Archetypes and Power sources will be easy to create, as I can create as many mythical weapons as I'd like.
...
The next thought that crossed his mind was what the strength of a Primordial Weapon must be like.
A mythical had already allowed him to bridge the gap between himself and others that stood a rank higher than himself.
With a Primordial Weapon... he might just be able to take part in the Battle For Peace.
With a Primordial Weapon, he might truly be able to make a difference in the world.
Levian came up with his plans for the near future.
First, he would need to speak to King Gaëlf and tell him what he had discovered. Afterwards, he would need guidance to become a platinum rank.
Once he became platinum, he would be granted access to the secret power, TRUTH. He would need someone to mentor him on how to use it.
From there, he would need to discover a weapon Legacy and charge his elemental Orbs.
Then, finally, he would be able to craft a weapon that has existed since the beginning of time.
A Primordial Weapon.
Six months. I have six months to work my ass off before the battle of peace.
And so began Levian's journey to becoming a true Godsmith.
