It wasn't long later that the living metal was finished being melted down so Daedalus quickly got to work. First he took out a mold and poured the molten metal inside. When it was semi solid Daedalus used his mana to pull it out of the mold and began the real work.

First he hammered off any impurities that where left over from his flames cleansing. Then he began the tedious effort of forging out the blade of the spear. As a matter of fact dwarf that he had challenged was even close to that point as even though they had powerful earthen flames it just couldn't match Daedalus'.

After about an hour of forging out the point and making sure that it was sharp enough Daedalus worked on the decorative markings on the spear. As it was his spear it had to be the best in both use and looks.

As the compet.i.tion was supposed to last until the end of the day, Daedalus had a lot of time to make it look nice. So by the time the judges called for stopping Daedalus was just sitting there praising his own work while glaring at each of the dwarves.

After a while everyone had handed their weapons off to the judges and waited as they judged them. About thirty minutes later the judges returned and said "Daedalus wins."

The other dwarves had long expected this and as they had signed the contract for the compet.i.tion they all immediately went about finding the best metals they knew about. Luckily for them Daedalus had added a small clause stating "You must get a hold of the best metal you know of, as long as you can buy it at a price you can afford without crippling your livelihood."

Unfortunately a few hadn't read this part and would spend the rest of their lives trying to get enough money for the current strongest metal Adamant.i.te. Daedalus of course waited for the smarter lot to come back and within a few days he had a large amount of different ores and metals. To his suprise the dwarf that he had fought at the start had returned with a surprisingly large lump of Adamant.i.te and apologising for his actions.

As he had received his spoils Daedalus decided to move on while saying "Just send my spoils to the Elven royal palace when you get them."

After that Daedalus had continued on his way to reach the dwarven capital. Though as he got closer Daedalus was only getting more excited to see what the architecture and craftsmans.h.i.+p awaited him in the capital.
