He could sense that the changes brought about by the forging of the Heart Fire were not just in appearance, but also in a deeper transformation.
Gripping the back of the gun, Evan closed his eyes. In his perception, this was not just a weapon; it could resonate with his spirit.
"Forged by the fire of the heart, I gained power properties related to the mind. It seems that as long as I infuse my emotions and beliefs into it..."
Evan's mind flashed through countless familiar and unfamiliar faces in the settlement, their smiles, and he also saw the endless darkness outside the settlement and heard people's cries for hope.
Through some invisible connection, Evan directs his beliefs and emotions toward something in his hands.
At that moment, something incredible happened.
The forging room, which was originally illuminated by fluorescent stones and the furnace fire, now shone with an even brighter and purer light.
"It's a bit too bright."
Opening his eyes, he saw that the object in his hand had changed. What was originally a standard gun head had a shaft extending from the tail, which also had a glass-like texture and seemed to have flames flowing inside.
The gun barrel itself became shiny, but the light was not dazzling; it had a warm quality that illuminated the surrounding shadows.
Without a doubt, your forging was a success, and it exceeded your expectations.
[You conducted numerous experiments in the forge, using that spear and other subsequently forged Heartfire weapons, to roughly determine the characteristics of these equipment.]
The spiritual properties brought by the Heartfire allow these equipment to resonate with their wielders, provided they possess sufficient faith and willpower.
Then, depending on their different beliefs, the weapon's resonance and sublimation will produce different effects.
For example, if you are filled with light and hope, your spear can dispel darkness, increase damage against Dark Erosion Beasts, have a special attack effect against darkness, and can also release beam attacks.
You resonate your protective beliefs with the shield, which activates the power of protection, shaping rock walls and creating translucent shields with limited duration.
These devices do not require supernatural power to operate; all they require is the user's pure belief, emotion, and willpower, and their appearance will change depending on the wielder.
If the user no longer infuses their own belief power, the weapon will revert to its original state over time, but a trace of the purest belief will remain within it.
In other words, if a person possesses this equipment for a long time and has enough willpower, they can turn the equipment into their own exclusive weapon.
You guessed that the equipment might unleash even greater power at that time.
The research is largely complete, but you still don't quite understand this effect, which can be described as idealistic, even though your inner fire is already quite idealistic.
Based on this characteristic, you call the equipment forged from this inner fire "psychic weaponry."
"I feel like I've obtained something incredible..."
Examining the weapon in his hand, Evan felt that his original wish—to change the world through his own power—might really come true soon.
You first crafted a set of armor, a shield, and a spear for your father.
After all, as a guardian of the homeland, your father's talent wasn't particularly outstanding. He didn't walk the path of the extraordinary, couldn't use rune weapons, and his ability to protect himself was still a bit weak.
But if you believe in his convictions and will, then equipping him with mental fortitude is absolutely appropriate.
Then, you crafted another batch of mental weapons and told Master Craftsman John about your achievement.
The master craftsman wondered if he was dreaming.
