"Hahaha, that is funny," Ivolaer laughed. "This obviously a bluff, why are you so nervous after hearing that, Jorhorn."

"I think killing you would be especially easy," Leon said. "You don't use armor and let every soldier hit you with ease."

"What did you say?" Ivolaer frowned. "I can turn you into charcoal with a single finger.. insect."

".. I'm wasting my time here," Leon sighed. "Just tell me already what you guys want to say."

"Startint the conversation after that will be difficult, but.." Alurelle massaged her forehead. " You already know that we want to reclaim our worlds, and as you probably heard from Inglar, we need your help. Although you are powerful, we believe that you won't be able to help us all that much on the battlefield, because you use too much mana in every single attack. However, your ability to create mithril will help us a lot."

"You guys have more mana than me," Leon said. "Why don't you create yourselves?"

"Although we have a lot of mana, we can't produce mithril because we don't have the physiology of a mage," Alurelle answered.

".. Explain that in detail." Leon frowned.

"As you already know, the people of Miebos lost some of their physical strength because they used mana instead of fighting directly," Alurelle explained. "Something similar happened to us. We were born with a racial trait that grants us the ability to grow in size according to the energy we have in our bodies. Since that also increased our physical strength, we focused on becoming something like magic warriors. We used mana because our body could store mana. Still, we didn't increase our intelligence to make our mana more powerful."

"Can't you just increase your intelligence to solve that problem.. Ah," Leon recalled specific information.

"That is right. The status you allocate doesn't just increase your strength, speed, and endurance," Alurelle explained. "It changes your body to a molecular level after a few years. Once you decide to follow the path of a warrior or mage, you can't change that later. We can fight against thousands of soldiers of this world because our endurance and mentality are much more efficient since we focused on increasing those soon after the assimilation started on our solar system. We focused on survival, and that explains why we can't defeat the soldiers of this world with ease, even though we had seven times more time than them to strengthen ourselves."

"So, the assimilation started in your world five hundred years ago?" Leon asked. "That doesn't explain how you guys use so many spells without losing all that much mana."

"Yes, but even though we didn't manage to find a lot of mithril in our planet, we succeeded in adding the use of mana and its properties to our technology," Alurelle explained and showed a metallic bracelet on her arm. "We created this two hundred years ago, this absorbs our own energy when our health, stamina, and mana are full, and when we need it back, the bracelet gives us the energy. That is why we can maintain that size for a few days."

"I see.. but to think that every single person of your world would follow the same path," Leon nodded. "It is kind of stupid.."

"Ugh.." Jorhorn murmured.

".. We had some mages, but since the survival rate of mages was low, most people followed the idea to increase endurance and mentality to increase their chances of survival," Alurelle added. "Mithril can only appear in worlds that are in the second stage of assimilation, but even so, it is extremely difficult to find. Although mithril can be created, only mages can create them since their bodies can create and control the purest type of mana."

Leon nodded, to create mithril, one would have to use and control a lot of mana. That wasn't easy, because mana couldn't be seen, only felt. Only those who used only mana day and night could reach that level of mastery.. and it looked like those who wanted to become mages on their worlds, soon changed their minds after noticing that their odds of survival were quite low.

"The dragons decimated our worlds' population, but after they disappeared, we didn't suffer many losses even when we failed to prevent dungeon breaks," Alurelle explained. "However, we didn't die.. but the battles were long because we weren't strong enough. That is why we developed this device.. we solved that problem, but we grew to reliant on external help. In the end, we just ignored the problem, and that is what caused the fall of our race."

"So.. you guys didn't learn your lesson," Leon declared. "You guys want to solve the problem of your lack of power by asking me to create mithril weapons.. I assume that your weapons and equipment are also a result of the technology of your world, but those aren't that powerful. Only useful to some extent."

"Even by using technology, we never managed to produce weapons more powerful than the ones made of mithril," Alurelle nodded. "Weapons made of mithril can display a terrific amount of power, and they can be useful for warriors like us and mages like you."

"You said that you guys didn't find a lot of mithril in your planets," Leon frowned. "Then how can you talk like that about the weapons that you barely saw?"

"We didn't have the technology to create weapons made of mithril either," Alurelle answered. "So, we never had weapons made of mithril, but a certain species of monsters has weapons made of mithril.. in fact, all their weapons are made of mithril. It was that race of monsters that exterminated the population of our worlds and forced us to escape."

"What monsters are those?" Leon asked.

"Angels," Alurelle answered.
