When she decided to choose claws as her weapon, she herself was startled by the strange choice.

She even thought, even if she possessed such a weapon, it would still be difficult to master its use.

However, for some unknown reason, when Master of Casting asked her what weapon she wanted, she instinctively blurted out, claws!

Upon hearing her idea, Master of Casting smiled slightly.

He got up and searched in the room for a while, then came out with two books in hand.

He opened the books on the table and beckoned Yanran to take a look.

Now even the innkeeper and Jiang Cheng’s curiosity was piqued, and they came over to look.

It was an old, evidently ancient book, and the open page showed an illustration where the figure bore some resemblance to Master of Casting; the weapon in his hand was a bow.

Master of Casting flipped open another book, and the illustration showed a different figure from the one holding a bow earlier. His skin appeared darker than the previous figure, and the weapon in his hand surprised everyone.

The darker-skinned person was holding claws!

Yanran originally used a bow and arrow as a weapon, but when Jiang Cheng asked her to choose a suitable melee weapon for herself, Yanran chose claws.

Now they compared the figures in the illustrations, especially the weapons in their hands, to understand Yanran’s choice was not merely a coincidence.

The key to unraveling a mystery often lies with the one who initiated it; they looked up at Master of Casting.

It has been said before, people of Yanran’s clan are blessed with extremely long lifespans, and the Master of Casting before them clearly appeared to be an elder.

This indicated that he had lived through many years and was approaching his twilight years.

In the long river of time, surely he has seen more than most people.

Master of Casting sat down slowly and pointed at the illustrations in the book: ”These two figures are divine entities of our Busby Ferguson clan, one is called Self-Day God, and the other is Night God, representing wisdom and strength respectively.”

Yanran wanted to say something but stopped, merely staring at Master of Casting.

Master of Casting nodded, indicating he understood what Yanran wanted to say. He kindly smiled at Yanran: ”Although these are our ancestral gods, history is so ancient that even when I was a child, I didn’t know they existed. It was purely by chance I discovered them from these books, learning that long ago, our ancestors worshipped these two gods.”

He looked at Yanran: ”Of course you wouldn’t know.”

Then he turned to Jiang Cheng and said: ”That’s why I was shocked when Yanran chose this kind of weapon.”

He asked Jiang Cheng: ”Do you think this is just a coincidence?”

Jiang Cheng pondered, considering the current advanced technology, most phenomena are explainable, yet Yu Yanran’s case is indeed perplexing.

Yanran was born with exceptional athletic talents, her physical condition was outstanding, choosing a bow naturally seemed plausible since she had to choose a weapon, didn’t she?

But then she chose claws, which was harder to explain.

Jiang Cheng thought, to clarify this matter, everything related to Yanran must be re-evaluated from the beginning to conclude, otherwise calling it coincidence or fate seems too arbitrary.

Thus, Jiang Cheng changed the subject, pointing at the illustration in the book: ”Are you planning to forge claws similar to this for Yanran?”

Master of Casting shook his head: ”No, with today’s technology being so advanced, what I forge will be much more practical, and moreover, tailored specifically for her.”

Yanran eagerly interjected: ”Then why don’t we start early.” The young girl was keen to possess a unique weapon, eager to have it.

Master of Casting laughed heartily and said to Yanran: ”Forging a weapon isn’t overly difficult nor easy, but if you want it done quickly, the quality will inevitably be affected somewhat. So, it’s better not to rush.”

Yanran hesitated, and Master of Casting noticed this, curiously asking: ”Do you have something urgent?”

Realizing Master of Casting’s inquiry, Yanran explained they were in pursuit of the Little Flaming Crow.

Upon hearing this, Master of Casting nodded and said: ”Since it’s urgent, we’ll start forging tonight.”

Yanran’s first weapon was a bow, which wasn’t extraordinary, but choosing claws as the second weapon caught the innkeeper and Jiang Cheng off guard initially, yet when Master of Casting presented them with the two ancient books revealing the weapons of their clan’s divine entities, they realized Yanran’s choice wasn’t simple at all.

Of course, to thoroughly unravel this, it likely requires delving into Yanran’s background, but obviously, now is not the time to initiate an investigation; there will be plenty of time later to explore further.

According to Yanran’s request, Master of Casting was about to forge a pair of claws for her.

According to Master of Creation, forging weapons isn’t overly difficult or easy, but upon knowing Yanran had urgent matters, he decided to commence work immediately.

Jiang Cheng and Yanran were about to infiltrate the headquarters of a Dark Group; just imagining how many villains were there made it apparent they wouldn’t welcome intruders kindly, so a fierce battle was almost inevitable.

Yet, Yanran, being of the same clan as Master of Casting, without a suitable weapon when venturing into danger, left him uneasy.

He was almost Yanran’s only clansman, also her elder, and with Yanran about to venture into danger to eliminate enemies, lacking a suitable weapon was simply unacceptable.

Thus, that very night, Master of Casting began his work, seeming even more urgent than Jiang Cheng.

Given this weapon was tailored for Yanran, Master of Casting had Yanran demonstrate a few moves in front of him.

Yanran’s movements were swift and agile; however, being female, she certainly wasn’t suited for direct confrontation with her opponents.

Master of Casting also believed claws suited her well, enhancing her strengths and effectively mitigating weaknesses. Jiang Cheng never used weapons customized for him; with his abilities, any weapon wielded by him could exert tremendous strength, and after gaining Superman’s abilities, weapons became merely supplementary for him.
