Versatile: Alternate World

"The two are related in some way?"

"For some reason yeah. When I killed it, I received some info about the Pendragon and it seems like it was connected to King Arthur himself."

Although I didn't really receive new info after killing it, I have a vague idea of what the Pendragon's blood and flesh can do based on the changes that appeared on the Versatile Weapon after devouring the Pendragon's carcass. And since the Versatile Weapon got stronger by devouring it, that means King Arthur also has done the same thing in the past, and perhaps the reason he was called Arthur Pendragon is due to him slaying the Pendragon himself." (A/N: Remember that this is just a fictional thing, this doesn't relate in any way to the real King Arthur himself)

"That would make sense especially since King Arthur is just too strong that he doesn't even resemble to a human any longer. He is much more dangerous than he should be and everything now makes sense."

"The only thing that made me wonder is why is the Pendragon is sealed instead of being killed? Sealing it doesn't make much sense to me," Queen Tanya fell into a deep thought.

"It also made me wonder why myself. There isn't a specific reason why the Pendragon would be sealed instead of being killed. If King Arthur was there himself and has fought against the Pendragon, it would make much more sense if he killed it and use the remains of it to gain more power."

"Perhaps... the reason he sealed it is not because he didn't consume the Pendragon but he is incapable of doing so?" Queen Tori looked at us and seems to have already formed a theory on why he sealed it instead.

"Huh? Why?"

"It seems that once someone or something already consumed a flesh of the Pendragon will be only capable of consume it once, nothing more than that. And since he didn't kill it, perhaps he is looking for a way to consume it once he finds a loophole or a gap where he can take advantage to eat up the monster and claim it's abilities."

When Queen Tori pointed it out, perhaps she nailed it or she is just treading too close to the main reason. Anyways, despite that theories, all of those are just theories and in the end, we can just keep speculating and everything will not end as we can just endlessly speculate and it might end up in a goofy way of line of thinking.

"By the way, I have something to add. While I was down the underground, I met someone who is too strong despite being a guy who seemed to have not seen any kind of civilization before. And he has extremely fast regenerative healing capabilities as he was able to reattach his severed arm back to his shoulders when we fought."

"A person underground? Has a very strong regenerative powers?" Queen Tori frowned when she heard of it.

"Do you know him, Your Majesty?" I looked at Queen Tori who is furrowing her brows like she is trying to remember deep in her mind who I was talking about.

"Sorry, perhaps I was just mistaken," Queen Tori shook her head. "So where is he now?"

"We teamed up a bit and he helped me get out of the underground and perhaps, without his help, I would still be stuck there and struggling in a fight. However, after I managed to reach the exit and reach the surface, he returned to the underground saying that he likes it there better and he has no plans to go here in the surface."

"That's a bit weird. I don't remember anyone falling down there. If there is, I should have already been informed about that place much sooner. I will look on this later, Bladeheart."

"Okay then. So, is there any update on what we will be doing for later?" I asked.

"Yes. Some of my soldiers have found some ruins not too far from here. But it was in a very dangerous spot due to how near it was one of the behemoths. We can try to kill the Behemoth that is in there since according to Almira, she already made some bolts that are capable of bringing down the behemoths. With the materials gathered from the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned, It is now possible to get rid of the behemoths before they can destroy things," Queen Tori revealed.

"The only thing is that, we don't know whether we needed to kill that Behemoth. According to Almira, some behemoths are not necessarily dangerous and they shouldn't be killed as they are not hostile and they won't harm humans unless they come really near. Though there are some behemoths that are needed to be killed if encountered and one of the example is the Mistfall Turtle of the Damned."

"I still don't understand though. How come she is very knowledgeable about the behemoths in this area? It was like she knows her way around the place," Queen Tanya scratches her head after hearing Queen Tori's explanation.

"Of course she knows. She is part of the expedition team in the past and have already encountered these beasts and know the best way to handle them. I learned it from her when the last time I talked to her."

"I still don't know how a blacksmith was capable of doing that. She seemed to be hiding what she is really capable of."

Queen Tori just smiles at her sister who is still trying to know who is Almira really is and handed the broken Carnwennan back to me.

"Perhaps you can reforge the Carnwennan again, Bladeheart? Since Almira is your master, perhaps she has already thought you on reforging relics like this?"

"Although I haven't been given the opportunity to fix any relics in the past, but yes, I do have the knowledge on how to reforge them."

Almira didn't teach me anything about it in this timeline but because in the past timeline, I already received the full guidance from her, I already know how to do things like that without any problem.

"Then, in the meantime while we are still in the middle of preparation, I will give the task to you to reforge the Carnwennan and try to restore it as close as it was to its former glory as possible. It is fine if it wasn't on par but at least make it to be usable to an extent."

"I can do that. Can I start immediately?"

"Yes. You can. There is one tent specifically for you since your teacher ordered to also pitch one tent for you to use. That is gonna help you reforge the item instead of barging into Almira's smithing room. I heard she has a very bad personality if her smithing session is disturbed by someone."

"Thank you, then please excuse me. I will start right away."

The two queens nodded and resumed on their talks while I went to the tent that Queen Tori mentioned. I have to make sure to reforge it to the best of my ability as soon as I can.

"What are you thinking so deeply about, Tori? You are getting more absent minded for a long while after Bladeheart left already. Is something from his testimony that seems to not suit well on you?" Queen Tanya has already noticed her sister to remain absent minded for quite a while and she only see her like this when she is thinking too deeply on something.

"Just what are you trying to understand? I don't think there is something from his experiences that seems to need for us to nitpick about."

"His testimony is fine. but there is one thing that is bothering me after he told us everything."

"What is it?"

"You remember the man that Bladeheart mentioned that he meet when he is stuck underground?"

"Yeah, what about it?"

"Bladeheart didn't describe the guy that much but he knows that this guy is strong and has the ability to heal himself and reattach his severed hand. I keep on thinking on who is he talking about especially since regeneration that fast and strong is not something a human should be able to possess. Even players like Bladeheart doesn't have that much regeneration powers as they also suffer from that too. It isn't a player so I have been thinking on who it was."

"Perhaps you really do know something about the guy that he mentioned. After all, you have met more people than I do because you usually travel around the world before you settled down here."

"No, its not that. There is just one thing that seems to make me think that I know this guy but there is just that one piece of info that I needed to piece it in just so I could complete that said puzzle. That is making me scratch my head of thinking since it is somewhat very close yet for some unknown reason, the answer seems to just stay on the tip of my tongue instead."
