052- CHILD OF THE CLANDESTINE
AEODYSUS
"It is finished. Come with me.", I informed Eur sabay tapon niya ng titig sakin bago siya tumango.
I led him inside my workplace at the House of Hephaestus where I placed his prosthetic arm.
"Ayos ba? Pinaghirapan ko yan. Mahal ang bayad.", I joked with the last part as Eur stared at the prosthetic arm I made him when he opened its case.
"Sabihin mo nalang kasi pare na bilib ka sakin para matapos na to. Ang hirap niyong pabilibin nung dalawang pinsan mo. Sobrang taas naman ng pride niyo dude para sa isang compliment lang naman.", I spoke inside my head as I secretly made a face at him.
Alaxceur slowly took it out of the case and eyed it carefully on every side. Aba't nanigurado pa.
"What is it made of?", he suddenly asked. I proudly grinned as I gestured at the prosthetic arm.
"I tweaked a few of its parts with my own creations such as the telemetry controller, transmitter, and the external coil. As for the body, it's made of Atlantian Tungsten. I finished it with gold platings para ayos tingnan.", I elaborated proudly. Tumango naman siya kaya bahagya akong napanganga.
Yun lang ang reaksyon niya? Ang kapal.
"Thank you for this, Aeodysus. I owe you one.", mahinang sambit ni Alaxceur na hindi ko inasahan. Napatawa naman ako. Buti naman.
"Tulungan na kita diyan dude.", I volunteered, taking the prosthetic arm from his hand at ako na mismo ang nagkabit nito sa kaliwang bahagi ng katawan niya.
I made the necessary adjustments after a couple of seconds to make sure that the arm is secured. I gently tapped it with a wrench after double-checking.
"You probably should test it out.", I suggested. He nodded before extending it as some of the nerve-like linings carved on the surface glowed into an arctic blue color. It reacted to Eur's ichor as a son of Poseidon.
"Besides being able to move it freely with your own will, it can also channel your ichor using your attribute, Hemokinesis. Another thing is that, I designed it with the same amplification level as Ahlkria's Adamantine Recurve Longbow. It won't affect your Hydrokinetic ability too since like I've said earlier, it was made from Atlantian Tungsten. Smooth huh?", I explained as he admired my masterpiece while testing it out with his attribute.
Pansin ko ang pag-angat niya bigla ng tingin sa gawi ko as he spoke...
"Atlantian Tungsten. Where did you even find such rare metal? The City of Atlantis is---", I cut him off.
"Lost. I know that. I got it from my father in his forge, or should I say, I stole it.", lol. I love stealing things from dad. Especially rare metals that can't be found here in the mortal realm. Nahuhuli niya ako paminsan-minsan but he doesn't mind.
Atlantian metal can only be found in the ruins of the Lost City of Atlantis. Maging kami ay wala ring alam kung saan ito matatagpuan. We tried to find it once since it showed on Archsev's Mythological map in several occasions but we never really had a successful quest in finding it. Until... we eventually stopped.
"Gago ka ba? Are you serious?", biglang singhal ni Alaxceur sakin, referring to me stealing the Atlantian Tungsten from Mt. Etna. The dude looked amused. Natawa rin ako sa naging reaksyon niya.
"Ninakaw ko nga sa Etna! I learned my professional plundering skills from my girlfriend, you know? Pen's dad, the god Hermes is the god of thieves after all. But don't tell Pen I said that. Baka sapakin ako nun.", pagbibiro ko pa sabay tawa kaya mahina akong nabatukan ni Eur.
