Moku stared straight ahead at the drifting clouds carried by the gentle mountain breeze. The remnants of battle and dried blood around him added an abstract touch to the current scenery.

He had just killed another platinum-tier danger mutated animal and devoured it completely, leaving no bones or fur behind. The dragon prana within his body was now roiling, accumulating enough to unlock the fourth evolution gate.

Moku grew stronger, he knew that. As he climbed the ladder towards the evolution gates, he would become even more powerful. The Wilwatikta Kingdom also grew stronger, its king understood that. With the increasing number of Valkyries, the orc and asura population would also rapidly multiply each year.

However, along with this rapid progress, the dangers he used to avoid could no longer be ignored. As the saying in his village goes, "Enemies may not be sought, but they will come on their own accord, and a true warrior will never run away from it."

The war in the elf village was only the beginning. Gradually, the existence of the Wilwatikta Kingdom would be known, not only by the elves but also by their neighboring mana species, the humans. And, of course, their close proximity would make both species focus their attention on this young kingdom before it grew into adulthood and became stronger.

Moku and the other monsters had to be prepared for this. They had to continuously grow stronger, exceeding their supposed capacity. That's why he was currently hunting down all the nearby platinum tier danger mutated animals around Bitter Maja.

And this was the last platinum-tier danger mutated animal in their vicinity. It resembled a scavenger bird with a crown of bones on its head. It had the ability to emit a fear aura that would disorient its enemies. Not only that, the platinum tier danger mutated animal, which Moku named Platinum Vulture, possessed razor-sharp claws and beak.

Even with the toughness of Moku's biofield protecting his body, the claws of the Platinum Vulture could pierce through. However, it couldn't defeat the current Moku. After unlocking the third evolution gate, Moku gained a new power he called Chakra Intent.

-------------------------------------------

Chakra Intent is an ability that allows Moku to materialize things solely based on his thoughts. With this ability, Moku can even create nuclear bombs that once existed in his world or other mythical weapons like Excalibur.

However, Chakra Intent has its limitations. This power can only create something that previously existed and is recorded in the Mind Realm. Additionally, it cannot form something that Moku doesn't have mastery of or understand the logical structure of. Therefore, for someone whose mind is solely focused on fighting and battles, it is impossible for him to create complex physical structures like a nuclear bomb.

With Chakra Intent, Moku no longer needs to go through the trouble of creating his own Mana Weapon and scrambling to find a replacement if it gets destroyed in the midst of battle. With Chakra Intent, Moku creates his favorite weapon, the Karambit.

Moku possesses extensive knowledge of the Karambit. He knows its craftsmanship, structure, and shaping, to the point where he could be considered a nerd when it comes to Karambits. He loves this weapon more than swords or any other weapons.

Therefore, the first thing he wants to create with the Chakra Intent is the Karambit. Moku envisions what kind of Karambit he will create, aiming to make two twin Karambits for his right and left hand.

He begins by imagining the materials he will use to make them. The first thing that comes to Moku's mind is tungsten. Tungsten is known as one of the hardest metals, with an extremely high melting point. It is commonly used in industries for purposes such as lamp filaments, heat-resistant tools, and electrodes. Despite its advantageous properties, there are several factors that make it less than ideal for weapon production.

Firstly, tungsten has a very high density, around 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter, making it one of the heaviest metals. This would result in a weapon made of tungsten being excessively heavy and difficult to handle.

Secondly, although tungsten is highly durable, its hardness also means that the metal is prone to brittleness and susceptible to breakage or cracking. A weapon made of tungsten would have a high risk of experiencing structural damage when subjected to high pressure or impact.

Thirdly, tungsten has poor characteristics in terms of flexural strength or flexibility. This means that a weapon made of tungsten may be less resilient and more susceptible to damage when used in combat or in situations that require high pressure.

Lastly, cost and availability are also significant factors when considering tungsten. Tungsten is a relatively expensive and rare metal, making the production of weapons from tungsten highly costly and difficult to obtain.

Ignoring the first and last factors, the combination of the second and third factors makes tungsten the worst metal for Moku to use in creating his dream weapon. Another factor to consider is whether tungsten can withstand Moku's dragon prana.

The reason Mana Weapons can withstand dragon prana from Asuras is because the material used to create Mana Weapons is Mana Organ, which contains mana channels. These channels continuously absorb mana from the surrounding environment. As a result, the channels are constantly filled with mana, which later becomes nourishment for the dragon prana, allowing them to be easily controlled.

However, tungsten is a metal from Moku's previous world known as The Old World by Garuda. The Old World doesn't possess mana, dragon prana, or any other mystical energy. It operates solely based on rigid physical laws.

Because of this, Moku doubts whether dragon prana can be used in a weapon made of tungsten or not. Ultimately, Moku decides to choose the second hardest material he knows, his own biofield. This idea emerged when the Biofield Weapon Path gained popularity among the Asura in contrast to the Mana Weapon Path. They imitated the mana channels within their Mana Weapons to shape the biofield they possessed.

The difference is that Moku not only wants to shape but also make his own biofield the material for creating the weapon. In doing so, the weapons he possesses will continue to evolve and grow stronger alongside his own strength.

The next issue is determining the powers that these twin Karambits will possess. The power of Mana Weapons stems from the configuration of the mana channels within the Mana Organ. By channeling dragon prana into it, powers such as elongation, hardening, or elemental release can be imbued into the Mana Weapon.

However, Moku wants his weapon to be unique and different from previous ones. After thinking long and repeatedly, Moku decides to keep the twin Karambits similar to the traditional Karambit.

This unique weapon from his hometown in Minangkabau doesn't need any additional powers. The Karambit is designed with a circular and concave curvature that allows for a firm and comfortable grip. Its distinctive shape, with a circle at the handle, helps ensure that the Karambit remains secure in the user's hand, even in intense combat situations.

The circular curvature of the blade enables the user to perform effective movements at close range, including thrusting, slashing, and gripping, making it suitable for close-quarters combat. This makes it a perfect combination when incorporated into Silat martial arts.

The shape of the Karambit, with its curved and sharp inner blade, allows for effective injury to opponents. The Karambit can inflict deep and severe wounds due to its potential for cutting or gouging using its sharp tip.

The exotic presence and uniqueness of the Karambit in the world of weapons can have a psychological effect on opponents. Its unusual shape and distinctive movements can intimidate or make opponents feel powerless.

The Karambit is a perfect weapon for Moku's fighting style. He doesn't need to modify it or add any other elements to it. If he's engaged in long-range combat, he only needs to rely on his Mantras. With the unique grip of the Karambit, Moku doesn't have to worry about the weapon slipping from his hand.

Moku smiles as he begins to envision the form of the Twin Karambits that will become his main weapons.

Now comes the task of solving the third issue, which is giving a name to this weapon. Names are crucial, not only for living beings but also for a weapon. With a name, something gains a deeper sense of significance. Even in Moku's hometown culture, a name is considered a prayer.

Moku needs something that can be a symbol, the symbol of hope and dream, not only for him but for other monsters in Wilwatikta Kingdom as well. As their king, Moku already used to be the role model of his people.

After pondering and racking his brain, Moku finds the perfect name. He recalls the name of the orc tribe he once bestowed as a symbol of a new beginning for the downtrodden orc race. If this weapon is to become a symbol, then let it remind the monsters of their origins and the beginning of their struggle.

Moku names the twin Karambits in his hands "Dawnshadow Blades."
