Jared returned the smithing fragment back to Hammerhead.
After regaining possession of the smithing fragment, Hammerhead thanked Jared profusely. This particular fragment was an invaluable treasure to many, but Jared returned it to their sect without a moment's hesitation!
Sworder's perception of Jared underwent a complete transformation. A wave of embarrassment washed over him as he recalled his initial mockery directed toward Jared.
Finally, Sworder comprehended the extent of Jared's capabilities and generosity.
“Young man, I can't believe you returned the smithing fragment without hesitation. It appears that Dragonslayer Sword has found its rightful place in your hands, and it can undoubtedly be wielded to great advantage. As promised, if you were able to extract the sword, I vowed to assist in its restoration and refinement. Now that you have accomplished this feat, I kindly request that you entrust Dragonslayer Sword to me,” Sworder declared.
“Sworder, Dragonslayer Sword has been fully restored, and its power has even surpassed its previous level. Therefore, there is no need for you to carry out the restoration process on my behalf,” Jared revealed, a genuine smile gracing his face.
Dragonslayer Sword had already undergone a complete restoration, having absorbed copious amounts of potent sword energy. Moreover, its power had ascended to new heights, so Jared no longer required Sworder's assistance.
Sworder responded with a smile, shaking his head gently. “What you perceive is merely the surface. The sword spirit within the Dragonslayer Sword has not fully recovered yet. Once I aid the complete restoration of the sword spirit, you will witness its true potential,” he explained.
With a wave of his hand, Sworder summoned Dragonslayer Sword from within Jared's body, causing it to come to his own hands.
With Dragonslayer Sword firmly grasped in his hand, Sworder's eyes gleamed with determination. He directed his focused gaze toward the sword, causing it to quiver in response.
In a matter of moments, an immense surge of sword energy surged forth from Sworder's being, merging with the Dragonslayer Sword.
With the sword in hand, Sworder leaped high into the air before descending swiftly, plunging into the depths of the sword-cleansing lake.
