The seven metals

"Well, there are seven metals that are different from all others for a main reason. Do you know what it is?"

Nico shook his head as he looked at Tiane for the answer.

"Each of them is naturally connected with one of the seven main elements, in addition to having special properties that no other ore has" Tiane explained.

"That's right, young lady," Ogume greeted.

Then he took two booklets out of his space ring and handed them to the students. "Within these books you can find detailed information about these metals. It is not easy to find them for sale, only an idiot would put them up for auction, many of them were found in ancient ruins and are in the hands of the great powers of the continent. My most promising students I could not fail to pass this information on to you, if you ever put your hand on any amount of these metals, you can create weapons at least at the diamond level. "

Nicola hardly waited for him to finish before opening the booklet in his hands. The pages were yellowed and the writing was simple, beside the pages there are illustrations of the ores and descriptions about their colors and affects. In addition to a description of each metal, it also brought different ways of working with each of the metals.

The first one was Orichalcum. He then discovered that it was a metal of legend that had a strong affinity with the elemental energy of fire. The metal, with a golden hue, was light and stained like damask steel, back to Earth.

The second metal was Adamant, heavy and resistant were words that scratched the description of that metal. Only warriors with great physical strength were able to raise the weapons forged with this metal. The affinity with the earth element made this material the perfect example for defensive objects.

The third is Moonsilver, the only metal in liquid form. Its affinity with the element of water made this metal malleable and difficult to forge anything with it, the inscription of runes was also part of the smithy. So runes inscribed on this metal allowed the user to change the shape of their weapon as long as it maintained the mass.

The fourth was the Starmetal, it was believed that this metal would have come from the heavens, silver and semi-translucent it felt fragile. Its affinity with the element of light made it perfect for building rapiers that needed a boost of speed, and the accessories created with this metal ensured that the user was in impeccable health and healed quickly from small wounds.

The fifth was the strangest, Soulmetal. This was formed where bloodbaths had taken place on the land, war fields and cemeteries. Fallen souls met with the elements of the shadows and gave rise to this black metal, full of marks that resembled the faces of the dead. Its main use was hidden weapons, such as needles, arrows and other long-range weapons.

The sixth was called Jade, the same name as the jade stone, but metallic. The bronze-green color called attention for its unnaturality, its affinity with the element of the wind made it possible to forge various objects with it, from arrows and throwing weapons like chakrams and boomerangs to boots and light armours.

And finally, Davross, the seventh opaque gray-colored metal, had an affinity with the thunder element. The most efficient weapons for the use of such metal were the sword and the ax.
