Chapter 929: Powerful Spear
—–
“GRUOOHHH!”
A dozen more Demonite Salt Crystal golems rushed towards Nia after seeing her massacre one of them, but Celes’ mother kept her composure.
Her Magic Aura erupted from her body as Winds and Lightning merged together! For a moment, the woman seemed to summon a whole thunderstorm with herself.
“Like Lady Emeraldine taught me…! {Thunderstorm Aura}!”
TRUUM!
Her Aura, combined with the bonus stats of her new equipment, generated a huge shockwave of magic power, pushing the golems back!
“HYAAAH!”
She quickly flashed through the midair like a lightning blast, reaching a golem’s chest and repeatedly stabbing it with her spear.
“RAAAH!”
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“GRUOOHHH…!”
Crack, crack…!
CRASH!
The golem was unable to resist the endless onslaught of piercing blows, accompanied by the buffs I gave to her and the amazing spear, lightning erupted from the golem’s interior until it crumbled into pieces!
BOOOMMM!!!
It literally exploded! Making everyone open their jaws in utter amusement about how my equipment could make just anybody amazing.
Although Nia has leveled up some more beforehand, and had her Mana Veins Unlocked, alongside her Ki Meridians, and she had also been practicing her Magic too.
So I suppose she wasn’t a newbie anymore… And this equipment finally allowed her to show us some of her amazing potential.
Then again… I still have to give myself some credit, that spear is amazing!

(Weapon Attack and Attack are different Stats. Weapon Attack is the Stat the weapon itself has as its attack power and the damage it can deal. Attack is the Attack Stat, similar to Strength.)
It was just amazing, wasn’t it?
“GRUOOHHHH!”
And while Nia was finishing off the Golem she attacked, four more came rushing towards her. However, little Celes got her back, as he unleashed his unique Magic.
His Aura erupted from his body, the sound of moving water coming from him as his blue, aquamarine aura materialized huge tridents, which he imbued with the Thunder from the Spear.
Indeed, the Spear also worked as a staff! It had enough Magic Power for that, and its Thunder and Darkness Element could be mixed into any magic, or even allow the conjuration of those elements of magic to anybody that equipped it!
“Leave mama alone! {Thunderous Ocean Tridents}!”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The tridents moved at lightning speed across the air, reaching the golems surrounding Nia and hitting their bodies, spreading countless cracks and making them collapse one after another.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
At the same time, Nia kept attacking the golems while receiving her son’s support. The two battled like warmongers, and the dozens of golems were destroyed in the span of five minutes… Fabian and everyone else didn’t even had time to shine.
“W-Woah… What the hell?!” Partner muttered. “Master, not fair! I also want an OP spear like that one!”
“Oh? Don’t worry, once I finally get to your spears, they’ll become even more ridiculously overpowered.” I giggled. “Just be patient.”
“T-They really did it!” Fabian said. “This equipment is insane, Lady Maria! It must cost an actual fortune…”
“We’re walking with huge bags of gold in our bodies!” Spectra said, panicking.
“I am not that good at using a spear, I’m better with knives…” Said Silva. “But I can try using it for now!”
“Don’t worry if the spear doesn’t fit you guys.” I smiled. “I’ve got you the solution right now. {Shadow Sculping Arts}: {Shapeshifting Darkness}”
After asking their preferred weapon types, I touched their weapons and sculped each spear into what they wanted it to be. Some became knives, other swords, others became gauntlets.
The stats remained the same and so the abilities, it just the shape that changed, it is one of the benefits of my Shadow Sculping Arts over items I made using it
“W-Woow! I got a shiny staff now!” Celes was happy.
“It became two knives!” Silva celebrated.
“Hey, can I get one now? Turn them into gauntlets!” Catarina asked me.
“Where’s the magic word at?” I asked with a teasing smile.
“Magic word?! What are you talking about?” She asked pridefully.
“Come on Catarina!” I said. “I’m waiting for it!”
“…Please?”
“Again? I didn’t hear you.”
“Pretty please? Maria? Master Maria?”
“Aww, you’re so cute when you act with humbleness! Okay.”
I quickly made a new spear and shaped it into a pair of black gauntlets, which fit Catarina really well.
“Oh yeah! Loving this! And the lightning! Holy shit this is perfect! Maria I would marry you at this point!” She said happily.
“E-Eh?!” I felt slightly embarrassed when she said that out of nowhere.
Partner and Emeraldine glared at her with a rather deadly stare…
RUMBLE!
However, that was interrupted with the sound of hundreds of golems approaching, led by a much larger monster.
This is probably the Boss of the Salt Crystal Mines!
