"What are they? I'll do anything within my power to accomplish it," the Village Chief asked, his tone solemn.

Now, they had the opportunity to transform even the most average villager into a warrior; he could not overlook it or purposefully ignore it.

Of course, something like this could turn the Village upside down, but with their discoveries about the outside world, Village Chief Brane understood that a Devourer's bracelet, much more powerful than its original, was something the village needed at this very moment.

Therefore, he was willing to ensure this experiment was completed.

Just thinking about the gifts that had gone untapped because the individuals possessing them couldn't become warriors, the Village Chief couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine.

A village where everyone could utilise and manipulate Vylkr's energy was frightening and exciting.

"As long as it is within my power, I promise to do whatever it takes to ensure this experiment is completed," Orion said, his tone serious.

Stronghold Leader Zogar also nodded, sharing the same sentiments.

Witnessing their response, Seraphina nodded thoughtfully, "The safest solution we have come up with is to graft a part of the chosen wielder's body to create a new Devourer's heart before allowing them to wield the Devourer's bracelet. With Greta's help, we won't have to worry about the repercussions or potential failures. However, for an effective solution, we would need to graft that of a warrior—the more vital, the better."

"It doesn't matter whether they are dead or alive as long as they can perfectly utilise Vylkr energies with their bodies. All we need to do is drain as much Vylkr energy as possible and transmute it, and we'll have a much more effective solution."

"It isn't the safest because the component used for grafting from the warriors to recreate the Devourer's heart will be obviously more familiar with the Vylkr energy and will adapt to its infusion very quickly, which will also hasten the wielder's control of the Vylkr energy but will also cause a few temporary side effects, which we are still unsure of."

"Temporary side effects?" Orion repeated, his brow raised in curiosity.

Seraphina nodded. "Yes, we only expect these side effects to be temporary until they fully acquire control of the Vylkr energy in their body and can wield the Devourer's bracelet," she responded.

Orion and the others all nodded in understanding.

"Which of the options do you think is best?" The Village Chief asked, his eyes fixed on Seraphina.

Since she and the other healers had come up with all of this, they must already have an option of their own, so he wanted to know what it was.

"Naturally, since we have two Devourer's bracelets, I'm inclined to say we try both options and observe how it develops from there. However, considering we are not in a hurry, I would pick option one as it's the safest option. And considering this is the Vylkr energy we are talking about, it's better to be safe than effective and take risks," Seraphina responded thoughtfully.

"Okay, then we'll go with option one," the Village Chief responded.

"I'll do my best to find any volunteers from the village willing to be the first to undergo such an experiment and send them to you as quickly as possible," he added.

There was no doubt that many people in the village would give up everything they had to become warriors, so he wasn't worried about not finding any volunteers; however, he only needed to inform them about the risks involved,

"Since we're done, can we look at the Devourer's bracelet that you all worked together to recreate?" Orion asked eagerly.

The Village Chief and Stronghold Leader, Zogar, agreed with Orion. They were genuinely eager to see what the Devourer's bracelet looked like.

Seraphina stretched her hand to grab hold of the box before pausing; then she opened it towards Orion and the others.

As Orion and the others continued to watch, they observed the Devourer's bracelet finally being revealed. Though it still possessed the same metallic colour as the standard Devourer's bracelet, it appeared much sleeker. It retained various metal parts and screws attached to it, with no dents or scratches on its surface.

Unlike the standard Devourer's bracelets, which were 5 cm thick, this one appeared only to be about 3 cm thick, showcasing its slimmer profile. Also, rather than the numerous inscriptions surrounding the standard ones, this one featured much more detailed inscriptions resembling runes on each and every part of its body.

"Leaving it bland like this was a bit tasteless, especially since we wanted to differentiate it from the standard Devourer's bracelet. However, we decided to add some colour to it after we finished everything," Seraphina said. "

Nonetheless, I present to you all the 'Vylkr Fusion Armlet,'" she added with a broad, satisfied smile.

"Vylkr Fusion Armlet," Orion repeated, feeling the words roll off his lips.

"Yes, we were planning to go for something like 'Devourer's Fusion Bracelet,' but we needed something much more distinct and equally domineering than its counterpart, so we went with that name. Do you like it?" Seraphina asked.

Orion nodded immediately. "Of course I do. Vylkr Fusion Armlet is an equally interesting and domineering name," he responded.

"I like the name as well. It perfectly fits what you all have managed to recreate," the Village Chief nodded, agreeing.

"I also agree," Stronghold Leader Zogar chimed in.

After they had looked closely at the Vylkr Fusion Armlet, Seraphina closed the box and set it aside for safekeeping.

"We'll be taking our leave now. I need to properly digest all the information I just received and deal with the occurrence that might emerge with burning the entire dead forest. In the meantime, we'll have the festival, which will also serve as Orion's coronation as the new Village Chief in two days."

"So, ensure that this experiment remains a secret until it's completed, as we don't want anything that might stir up any commotion for now with these three events. I'll also do my best to ensure that it's kept between the three of us only," the Village Chief said, his expression serious.
