Strongest Hammer God

Chapter 400 End of the Stark Brotherhood

After finishing his experiments, Kyle returned to the hawk and asked it to transmit a message to the Maester.

He wanted to amend his contract a bit.

Since he no longer needed to see the sixth level of speed, he didnʼt need to be thrown around anymore.

Instead, he simply wanted to experience the burning of the atmosphere around him while moving at high speeds.

After some negotiations, the Earth Elemental left, going back to the Maester.

Meanwhile, the hawk grabbed Kyle and flew up and down with him.

The hawk was no longer dropping Kyle and was simply flying around with him.

It had changed its technique to only surround itself, which meant that Kyle was feeling the full force of air resistance.

Naturally, this essentially meant that Kyle was surrounded by an aura of fire the entire time, which was exactly what he wanted.

Surprisingly, Kyle only needed about six months to understand everything there was to understand about this kind of fire generation.

After landing on the ground, Kyle experimented a bit.

He summoned two thin sheets of Wind Ether and moved them against each other.

CRK!

It was like someone ground two pieces of metal against each other, and a couple of sparks shot out.

ʼWait a sec,ʼ Kyle thought as he realized something.

Then, he summoned two sheets of Metal Ether and did the same.

CRK!

The same thing happened.

ʼOh,ʼ Kyle thought as he realized something. ʼYeah, that makes sense.ʼ

ʼI thought most Elements have some kind of Fragment that allows them to create fire.ʼ

ʼBut, yeah, itʼs actually just one Fragment that can be used with anything that has Ether.ʼ

Then, Kyle got an idea.

He focused on the air.

The Ether in his Center turned blue, and a bunch of Water Ether appeared in front of him.

Since Kyle didnʼt have a Water Affinity, creating Water Ether took around 20 times the focus and ten times the Ether.

He could create Water Ether, but it was super inefficient and basically useless.

Then, Kyle turned the Water Ether into two sheets and rubbed them together.

CRK!

Sparks were created.

ʼHuh, I can create fire with water. Funny.ʼ

ʼSo, yeah, thatʼs another Fragment done. Iʼll call it the Fragment of Friction,ʼ Kyle thought.

ʼWasnʼt super hard to learn, but it also doesnʼt have a lot of power. I mean, I can create some fire, which can have some uses, but thereʼs not a lot you can do with it.ʼ

ʼAccording to my classification of Fragments, this would probably be a level two Fragment. Niche uses, but not completely useless.ʼ

ʼBut as far as I can see, this Fragment is essential for my plan. This thing is one of the bridges between the Elements.ʼ

ʼI want to create the Law of Meteor, if something like that exists. If it does exist, I need the Fragment of Friction. I mean, whatʼs a meteor without its iconic trail of fire?ʼ

ʼThe Fragment of Friction connects Wind and Fire. I probably still need to connect Wind with Metal and Fire with Metal.ʼ

ʼWhen the three Elements are connected, I have a base, and I just need to increase their individual characteristics.ʼ

ʼFire go boom, which means I need the Fragment of Explosions.ʼ

ʼWind go whoosh, which means I need the Fragment of Wind Movement. Luckily, I already got that.ʼ

ʼMetal go… I mean, itʼs hard. Just need to increase the level of my Metal Material Fragments.ʼ

ʼThen, I would have a Law, and I could also find ways to increase the power even more.ʼ

ʼMake wind faster. Make fire hotter. Make metal harder.ʼ

ʼAnyway, I canʼt train forever. Four years have already passed since the tournament, which means I only have one more year of safe training.ʼ

ʼThereʼs a big chance that my Aristocratʼs Body or my connection to Boss have already been leaked. Alternatively, the Chief might have already become a major player in the kingdom, and his enemies want to get to him by hurting his forces.ʼ

ʼI could imagine someone looking at me and going, man, that guy sure seems important to the Chief.ʼ

ʼNobody dares to do anything to me here since Iʼm just a couple of kilometers away from King Skysand, but I wonʼt be able to stay here.ʼ

ʼGotta grow.ʼ

ʼIn terms of economics, I have spent the last four years gathering valuables and have a full sack of riches. Now, I need to convert my physical riches into actual cash.ʼ

ʼI gotta create Methods out of these Fragments.ʼ

ʼFriction and Wind Movement can both increase the power of my Ignition even more.ʼ

ʼI also need to finish the Rank C Metal Material Fragment. I already use Rank B Materials, but the perfect Rank B Material is almost as good as a Rank A Material.ʼ

ʼI need to increase my Momentum as much as possible to keep the engine of power running.ʼ

ʼNeed Fragments and knowledge to make stronger Methods.ʼ

ʼNeed stronger Methods to fight stronger enemies to get more Momentum.ʼ

ʼNeed more Momentum to make it easier to gain Fragments and knowledge.ʼ

ʼThe engine of power. ʼ

ʼFragments make Methods make Momentum make Fragments make Methods and so on.ʼ

ʼCanʼt stop, wonʼt stop! Gotta keep going!ʼ

With renewed motivation, Kyle paid the Maester for her services and went back to the castle.

For the next couple of months, Kyle focused on comprehending the Rank C Metal Material Fragment.

Sadly, comprehending this Fragment was not easy.

Most likely, Kyle would need another two years or so to comprehend it.

Because of that, Kyle stopped and used the last two months to focus more on his Methods.

He was not completely ready to battle yet, but he had still grown quite a lot stronger.

Eventually, Kyle was called by the Crown Prince.

The tournament was going to be held soon.

”Yeah, the Stark Brotherhood isnʼt participating. Weʼre disbanding as soon as we are legally allowed to,” Kyle said.

After some legal talk, the Crown Prince granted Kyle an exception to the disbandment law.

Kyle signed a document, and moments later, the Stark Brotherhood stopped existing.

Almost immediately after the disbandment, Kyle fucked off.

He wanted to catch his potential assassins off guard by fucking off way too early and suddenly.

ʼEarly bird catches the worm! Gotta fuck off before they can fuck me!ʼ
