Strong Hammer Marquess!

Jormungandr's sword was undoubtedly an impressive creation, a weapon with extraordinary potential for growth. However, its power was not immediate. It required time, effort, and countless battles to achieve its full strength. On the other hand, Torin's weapon, though it lacked the ability to evolve further, was undeniably the superior weapon at the moment. Its craftsmanship and immediate effectiveness placed it well above the current state of the Demon Bloodsucking Sword.

Vlad's expression twisted into one of mild irritation as his sharp gaze flicked toward the small yellow cat. If the Depravita of Gluttony had simply forged a standard Guardian Tier weapon, the contest would have been far easier to judge. But the cunning creature had taken an unconventional path, creating a treasure with immense growth potential. While Vlad appreciated ingenuity, he couldn't ignore the fact that this approach muddied the decision.
