" Alright babe we have relaxed for a week I think it is time to get back to practice. "
" Uuuhhhh leave me alone, just put me in our world and you travel today. "
" Hehe alright gorgeous you go back to sleep. "
That was an unusual conversation for our favorite money dragon and his lovely wife, as usually Loretta is
the one to wake up first. The reason Solomon is so happy dispite waking up super early is because, much to
Solomons satisfaction, he and Loretta finally had sex. It was a very spontaneous thing for them, but they
were having a very romantic moment and one thing lead to another and they proceded to spend the rest of the
night in the mixt or passion. Luckily though they were sober enough to remembered to dissolve the Vertility
Pill and drink it in already pre-made tea. Thanks to a vareity of factors Loretta has a sixty percent chance
of becoming pregnant, and then a ten percent chance of actually raising the baby.
Having finally gotten to have sex Solomon feels like he has more energy than a nuclear reactor on drugs.
Deciding to take advantage of his energy Solomon decided to get some work done before he started magic and
skill practice. Solomon has two projects lined out that he wants to get done before Loretta wakes up. His first project was a special novelty weapon that he had been wanting to do for awhile, the weapon is called a Thunder Drum Hammer.
The weapon will be a drum body made of Storm infused world tree bark, with the top being made of lightning skin he grabbed from his master. Of course its not going to be as simple as a drum on a stick, he is going to have a wooden ball about the size of a fist held in the middle of the drum with two stretchy tendons. The plan is for every time he hits someone the ball will bounce back and forth hitting the top and bottom of the drum which will produce which will produce energy for the next hit.
Solomon knew that something like this wouldnt happen in a world without tons of Mana, but luckily for him he has basically unlimited Mana in his and Lorettas world.
" Welp I guess it is time to get to work, I want to finish Lorettas gift as well. "
And with that sentence he started to soak the bark in boiling hot water in order to let it absorb some water that way he can bend the wood without breaking it. While the wood soaked he decided to start infusing extra lightning attribute mana into the lightning beast skin. The proscess of infusing is a simple and quick one it mainly depends on how powerful you want the attribute to be in whatever object you are infusing. For this particular instance Solomon decided to do equal amounts of infusing for the skins, tendons, and the ball, all of which would be infused with lightning or storm attribute.
After spending a few hours infusing while the bark soaks Solomon felt it was finally time to start working on the main body of the drum. The first thing Solomon did was he pulled out the bark and started to curve it as delicately as possible into a rough circular shape. When he got the bark into shape he pulled out a few peices of rope and tied all of them around the bark to hold it in shape. When he got it tied tightly and made sure he had sealent on the crack along the side Solomon proceded to continue infusing starting with the drum body.
After thinking about it a bit, Solomon knew it would take way to long for the wood to dry so he grabbed a few proto-type batteries and infused all of them with tons of Mana. The reason for this is so he can leave his and Lorettas world and speed up the time while still making sure the objects get infused. When he finally set all that up he left the world and sped up the time enchants on its barrier.
When he popped out of the world, he saw Loretta still laying on her mattress her breath so light some would confuse her with the dead, well techinically she is half dead. After enjoying the peaceful scene for a bit Solomon went to a workshop that is connected to their house through the kitchen. He built the workshop exactly for times for when he didnt want to spend absurd amounts of time in his and Lorettas world.
When he got into his workshop he started planning how he was going to build Lorettas gift, he knew what he wanted he just didnt know the exact path to get there. He did have a few ideas on how to get her gun lance shooting, but he still needed something extra. And so he spent hours thinking and thinking until Loretta had gotten up and started to watch the cleanup taking place on the battlefield in front of their home. Eventually Solomon had an idea, he thought that maybe he could modify his Mana absorb skill to do the reverse and allow the release of Mana in a more controlled manner. With that idea he instantly went into his world and got to work experimenting, he tried taking the principles of moving his Mana veins and then trying to recreate magic without actually using magic. Eventually through months of training he created not one but two new spells, he created Mana empowering and attributeless Mana.
Mana Empowering - You can move your Mana Veins outside of your body allowing you to power things using your own Mana with much more control and ease than beings who dont have this technique.
Attributeless Mana - You have discovered a way to use a type of Mana never before used by a sentient being. Unfortunately there are no odvious advantages to this type of Mana.
After creating the skill Mana Empowering Solomon finally had a way to power the shots with enough strength to
peirce the bodies of Lorettas enemies. This was the reason Solomon didnt know how to advance, there were
plenty of ways to power bullets to shoot from the lance, but none of them were convient and easy enough to
use in battle. Now that he knew how to power the shots he just needs a way to keep the lance from breaking
mid-fight, he had a few ideas involving his batteries that will keep Mana even throughout the body of the
lance.
Solomon decided to leave and deliver his new technique to Loretta in order for her to learn it, he figured by

the time she completely learned the technique he should have her Lance done. So that exactly what he did.
" Hey babe I got a gift for you. "
" What did you get me? "
" A new specially created technique made just for you. It is the first of two gifts you get. "
After he said that Solomon pulled out a book he had wrote the Mana Empowering Technique on.
" Whats with all of the gifts, I know we did it but you cant be that happy about it. "
" Never under estimate how happy that can make me, and I have been planning your gift for awhile now I just
figured now would be the perfect time. Anyway you practice that technique I am going to complete your second
gift, no peaking into our world alright. "
" Alright, by the way you can count on a little something something later tonight. "
When he heard that Solomon looked more energetic than a hustler selling drugs to a bunch of naive, rich,
highschoolers. The first thing he did was insert a pre-made tube from the entrance at the tip of the lance to
a spot partway down the lance, thus creating a hidden barrel in the body of the lance. After that he
installed the mechanism for the trigger that will activate the Mana stored in a battery at the base of the
barrel, when the trigger is pulled it will release Lightning attribute Mana shooting a bullet out at an
extremely high speed. After doing all that he took it all apart and pulled out the actual parts for a high
class weapon. The difference between the actual parts and the practice parts is the weight and quality, as
well as the lance body isnt completely hollow making the lance more sturdy.
The barrel is also made shorter and more sturdy for more damage similar to a shotgun barrel. Solomon also
ordered special bullets similar to Dum Dum Bullets for maximum damage, Solomon plans on collaberating with
Loretta to make bullets using space magic. At the least he wants a way to make a type of bullet that he or
Loretta could make, even if they cant make them out of pure Mana.
After he got all of the components in place Solomon went on to making the battery, he has been testing what
Mana Minerals are best for storing Mana. So far they all seem to be on a pretty even scale, the more valuable
the mineral the more it stores.
The gems with value in lowest to highest are Jeremvite, fire opal, poudretteite, benitoite, musgravite, red
beryl, alexandrite, diamond, serendibite, grandidierite, taaffeite, red diamond.
Solomon started experimenting with creating different types of minerals by channeling high amounts of Mana
through different geographical locations in his world. He was able to make a few types of minerals by
combining different biomes, most of which could contain decent amounts of Mana but only one which could rival
Red Diamond. He did however find a very interesting gem that unlike all the others he had found this one
could have the Mana inside manually restored. He discovered this gem when he was reading through some of his
masters records, this gem didnt have a name nor exact way to make it, but it did say in which regions it was
found. From that point Solomon just tested using different amounts of biomes that the gem was found in, and
eventually he created the gem. Solomon then tried combining different enviroments to see if the minerals
could combine, he later found out that unfortunately they couldnt, which was pretty odvious considering how
old the universe is all combinations would have likely been found naturally.
Solomon decided to use the gem that can be re-fueled manually for Lorettas lance since it would be dozens of
time more convient in battle. Since the gem didnt have a name Solomon decided to call it ________. After he
named the gem he found the purest peice uncontaminated by any nasty gunk, and proceded to grind and file the
peice down to the perfect size for Lorettas lance. When he got the gem ready Solomon arranged all the other
peices for Lorettas lance and he then started to assemble her gun lance.
After all his testing on gems his tree bark had long dried and his betteries had ran out of energy for
imbuement long ago. So after assembling the lance Solomon also assembled his hammer, when he accomplished
that he lined both the weapons on his workbench. After lining them both up Solomon just couldnt get happy
about his hammer so he decided to change it. He made another identical drum but instead of using Storm and
Lightning Magic Solomon decided to imbue the second drum with gravity and Barrier Magic. The Barrier Magic is
to add variety to his attacks so he could go from sealing, to blocking, or even make his hit range wider. The
Gravity Magic is for him to increase the weight of his hammer staff. When he finally finished the hammer
staff he was admiring it and was very proud of himself for it, when suddenly he had an amazing idea.
After thinking a bit Solomon grabbed his traditional style tattoo instrument and started to prepare the his
inks. He then proceded to add tattoos to the skins he used on his drums, they increased the effect of all the
magics he added to the hammer staff. After he finished the tattoos he added enchantments to both his and
Lorettas weapons though he didnt touch the side if the second drum he had Barrier Magic on because he can use
any enchantments he wants using Barrier Enchants.
Solomon left his Barrier World in order to give Loretta the gift that took him months maybe even half a yaer to complete. When he exited the Barrier he saw Loretta practicing her pure lance skills in a formation Solomon had set up just for them to practice their weapon skills. He went decided to wait for Loretta to exit the formation on her own instead of rushing her, in the meantime Solomon decided to make himself something to eat. After looking through the ingredients he and Loretta had Solomon decided to do some eggs, steak, and noodles with yakisoba sauce, this was one of Solomons favorite foods to eat when he went to chinese buffets.
Though he loved american chinese food in general generals chiken, krab rangoo, dumplings, and his current project were his favorites.
With some perfect timing Loretta left the formation right as Solomon finished preparing the noodles, when she smelled the smell Solomon made both of them a bowl and they proceded to eat together in silence.
" So is today going to be a great day oooorrrrr a bad one? "
" Well you just got a really delicious meal and I have finished your gift. "
With that Solomon pulled out both his and Lorettas weapons, after he let Loretta examine her lance he said one phrase.
" Appraise it. "
