"You better keep your hands away from him!"

Hearing my words, Eve instantly s.h.i.+elded Pengu with her own body, as if I was some kind of pervert trying to offer a candy to an underage girl. 

How rude! It"s not like I would force him to do it! If this small friend of mine were to refuse, I would just use some of the skins of the monsters that we dissected all the way back in the training grounds! I just wanted to make my creation as great as possible!

"Screech!"

While Eve was hiding it behind her own body, Pengu only patted her side with its fin, before escaping her embrace and approaching my leg. Nodding its beak slightly, it closed its eyes as if in wait to have its heart carved out!

"Ah, I"m not going to hurt you in any way! You don"t need to act in such a way!"

Involuntarily patting its head, I was going to cut the tip of its fur, only to realise that its entire body was covered in strange scales!

Oh d.a.m.n! I didn"t know that Penguins had scales instead of fur! But that didn"t change anything for me! I guess the fact that he was so soft could be attributed to the natural amortisation of his body that he developed for the sake of being able to soften out any hits that were coming his way! The fact that he shrunk from an enormous size to just half of my own height meant that his hardened feathers had insane density!

Resting the edge of my knife on the very tip of its feathers, I cut it as thinly as I could. Making sure to make the slash in a fluid movement, I had to hurry my other hand up to catch the dustlike material that fallen of its skin!

"Thanks for your contribution!"

Patting its head, again, I turned back to the place where I kept all the materials and tools.

"That"s it?"

Staring at me with an incredible look in her eyes, Eve couldn"t believe that she was on guard against such a simple and unmeaningful thing! If she were to put it in terms of human nature, I didn"t even cut Pengu"s skin, but trimmed down the minuscule hair that covered most of the human bodies!

"Yeah, I only need to use it to add some softness to this item."

Answering the question of my dearest, I took out a lump of claylike material, which price was more than scary. From what I heard from Venna, it had top-notch energy transmitting properties, turning it into a widely sought material for creating magical tools and sculptures for golems!

After separating a small amount of the material out of the main portion, I started twisting it in my hands before putting it away and pouring the Pengu"s cut fur on the table. Splitting it like some kind of druggie would split his portions of sugarlike powder, I took about half of the tray content, before rubbing it into the bigger portion of the clay.

Twisting it, modelling, squeezing and overall moving it around, I made sure that Pengu"s fur would be evenly distributed along with it, before splitting the clay into five even portions again. This time, the work would need to be a lot more precise!

Taking the first part, I simply covered the entire energy road with it, making sure the entire surface but the bottom end would be covered in this clay. After making sure that the shape would resemble a standard, slim rocket from back Earth, I poured a small amount of my magic into the clay and kept it for quite a long time. Controlling my own magic to such a degree to keep it flowing through a foreign object would prove to be really difficult if not for my additional ability. 

Only when I felt that my energy couldn"t flow through the clay anymore, I pulled it back to my dantian, while inspecting whether the entire item was as hard as I wanted it to be. Following Venna"s words, the resulting hardness of this clay depended on the time where a craftmaster would circulate his energy through it. Despite my energy unable to flow through it anymore, after only five to ten minutes, the shape would be fully solidified and the material would get its transmitting properties back!

Before I continued to repeat the process, I took out a small heavenly stone that I found in the Venna"s storage ring. Putting it aside, I finally heated up the long iron stick that I carved out before to the point where I could change its shape. Using the hardened and cold rectangular plate that I made back then as well, I simply rolled the hot stick around it, creating makes.h.i.+ft spring!

Sharpening the ends of the small spring with my energy sword, I forced the heavenly stone in the middle of the spirt, before glueing it to the uncovered end of the energy stone with some more of this expensive clay. Just this action was enough to add another inch to the length of my masterpiece!

Finis.h.i.+ng this part meant that the most important steps were in front of me!

"Come on, how long will you take? I"m kinda bored!"

Looking behind, I could see Eve already sitting on the one shelf that was in this entire room, while swinging her legs in the air and rubbing Penug"s belly while holding him on her lap… d.a.m.n this lucker! Even I didn"t receive such treatment from her!

"Don"t worry! When I finish it, you will never feel bored again!"

Close to losing my control over myself and laughing out loud, I turned my attention back to the magical item I was crafting.

After covering it with four more layers of the clay that I made sure to make softer and softer with each respective layer, I even finished shaping it perfectly! With a bit wider and bigger part on the top, some small protruding points along the shaft and hard base, it was almost over!

Before I was finished though, I cut a small part of my skin with my energy sword. Considering how I already reached not only the expanding senses level but actually way greater heights with my system, just a small patch of my skin was enough to change the properties of the remaining lump of clay!

After cutting this part of my skin into a powder and dripping a few drops of my blood on the clay, I mixed those two ingredients before applying the improved clay on top of the item, while making sure to make it just a bit harder than the softest possible underlayer. While I could so some carving to add a bit more realistic texture to it, that could wait for the second generation! 

Inspecting the overall finished product, I confirmed that the small spike of the spring was protruding from the middle of the base, making it possible to push it inside. Holding this epicness in my hands, I infused a small amount of my energy into the crystal core inside, before sticking my finger into the pointy end of the spring, pus.h.i.+ng the heavenly stone inside into the crystal.

As soon as I did so, I could feel the energy that I just supplied to the stone, returning back to my body through the blood from my thumb that covered the entire spring!

Turning around with a satisfied smile, I reached out with my craft on my hands in the direction of my dearest.
