Chapter 355: 16 Year Old Inglis and The Meaning of Matchmaking (7)
"Ohh…! You can do that too…?!" exclaimed Rafinha in awe.
"Yeah, I learned from Principal Miliera and Special Envoy Theodore, and I studied some technical books as well. I want to see what I can do. If I can enhance the Artifact, it will greatly benefit Alina's training," Inglis explained.
"Wow… Thank you, Big Sister Glis!" Alina expressed her gratitude.
"That would be a tremendous help, Lady Inglis," added Ada.
Inglis had never been particularly interested in Artifacts themselves. Her focus was mainly on reproducing their useful Gifts. She found Artifacts unreliable, as they often broke when she infused her Ether into them. After her experience with Leone's High-Grade black greatsword Artifact shattering, she lost interest in them.
However, her perspective changed when she wielded the ultimate Artifact, the Hyrule Menaces, during her battle against the Prisma. Eris and Ripple, the two Hyrule Menaces she equipped, exceeded her expectations with their astounding performance. They truly lived up to their status as the Ultimate Artifacts. This revelation showed Inglis the untapped potential within Artifacts.
As a result, Inglis wanted to explore the possibility of creating an Artifact that could withstand the strain of her Ether by making adjustments and modifications to existing Artifacts. For that purpose, she sought guidance from Principal Miliera and Special Envoy Theodore to learn about the structure of Artifacts.
Her ultimate goal was to craft a sword as resilient as the dragonscale sword made from the scales of the Dragon God Vufailbane. Although the dragonscale sword was hastily fashioned by shaping Vufailbane's scales into a sword, it proved to be an exceptional weapon capable of harnessing Inglis' Ether.
Unfortunately, the dragonscale sword had been lost during the battle with Prisma, leaving Inglis in dire need of a new weapon. Even if the replacement Artifact could just withstand her Ether and possess a single Gift, it would be considered a great success.
