"Create a Magic Artifact?" Upon hearing the choice of terms used, Re'Tul was shocked as numerous thoughts flashed in her mind.

"Yes," Re'Kha replied as she glanced at her mother.

Re'Bah nodded as she stood up and cupped her fists, facing the Clan Elders, "Elders, in the recent auction in Burfuna City, Re'Bah managed to get a Hammer Magic Artifact. From now onwards, West Lake can also forge Magic Artifacts."

"Impressive, Re'Bah." The head Elder didn't stint his praise, "This way, the Clan can create more Magic Artifacts. Considering the fact that the world is becoming more and more dangerous these days, doubling our forging rate would help our Clan in the long run."

He then spoke with a tone of caution, "But, you should remember that all Magic Artifacts should be under our supervision, even if they are those created personally for you."

"Yes, Elders, Re'Bah remembers it very well." Re'Bah nodded and sat in her seat, making a gentle smile as she gazed at Re'Tul.

The Clan rule was to keep all Magic Artifacts under the supervision of the Elders. Even if Re'Bah created a Magic Artifact for her personal use or had purchased one using her own money, the Magic Artifact would still be under the supervision of the Elders.

Though, only she would be able to use the Magic Artifacts. After all, she was its owner. It was just a precautionary measure taken to ensure the Magic Artifacts wouldn't fall into the hands of outsiders.

Moreover, to take out her personal Magic Artifact, Re'Bah didn't need the Clan Head's permission. She could approach the Elders directly and use them. Moreover, under their supervision, no one else could scheme to take the Magic Artifacts.

In the unlikely chance she died, her Magic Artifacts would still belong to her family and could be legally claimed by her children. The Elders would give her justice regarding that. So in any case, keeping the Magic Artifacts with the Elders was the safest bet.

Moreover, in the case the Magic Artifacts produced by her family were superior to those created by Central Lake, the Elders would judge that her family was superior. And once the accumulations changed to a qualitative extent, they would assign her family as the Central Lake.

After all, the true power in any Elemental Clan was in the hands of the Elders. Only they decided which family became the Clan's central pillar. That was why Re'Bah dared compete against Central Lake in the first place.

With the addition of the Hammer Magic Artifact, her family was now in no way inferior to Central Lake. Thinking as such, Re'Bah smiled, 'The rest depends on the children.'

Now that the West Lake decided to compensate a Magic Artifact, Re'Tul had lost the reason to conduct a search. After all, West Lake was compensating with a Magic Artifact. Upon completion, it would only be the Clan's property. The West Lake will have no right over it and could only file for it legally to use in times of necessity.

"Despite the compensation, it would take time to create the Magic Artifact. And until then, our Clan is a Magic Artifact short. Just as the Elders have said, in these dangerous times, the loss of a Magic Artifact is damaging to our situation." Re'Tul said, "And, since there is no proof from your side, we will conduct a search on West Lake. Moreover, for creating such a situation, you will have to face punishment, Burkurel Re'Kha."

"Finding the lost Magic Artifact will be my mission." Re'Kha cupped her fists, expressing with a solemn tone as her voice slightly shivered, showing that she was pained, or at least the way she acted depicted that, "And, as punishment, Re'Kha here will forgo her right to visit Earth for five years."

"What?" Most of the seated Harmonisers were unable to control their shock. After all, Re'Kha was basically crippling herself with this decision. No matter how much one emphasised on their abilities, their basic talent was still valued highly.

After all, as long as they were trained in other factors, Harmonisers with greater talents were able to become stronger and reach the peak of the Harmoniser Realm faster. For a normal Harmoniser that was only able to comprehend a unit worth of Elemental Qi per year, he/she had to be alive for 115 years before possessing 100 units of Elemental Qi.

That was too long a duration. And by that time, they would be so weak they would hardly be able to move. So, it was useless for them to possess 100 units of Elemental Qi in the first place. It was rather a waste of the Prana Stones that would have better use when given to a young Harmoniser.

As for Re'Bah and Re'Rak, they were close to hitting the peak already and only needed 3-4 years before doing so. It was because their talents allowed them to comprehend at least two units of Water Qi per year. On a longer scale, it was actually higher than that. Adding onto the boost when comprehending using a Water Qi Essence, their progression was even faster.

And for someone like Re'Kha, by the time she was 48 years old, she would have naturally reached the peak of the Harmoniser Realm. And, that meant she had more time in her life to attempt becoming a Martial Master, raising her chance of success.

Her sheer talent allowed her a clear shot at the Martial Master Realm. And, that meant their Clan would obtain another Elder. So, the fact that she let go of five years meant she was losing 15 units of Water Qi.

And, that would be too much of a waste. Even if she wished to catch up, she would need to obtain more than 4 Prana Stones during her every visit to Earth. And, getting that much was almost impossible. At most, obtaining such an amount in a couple of tries was possible.

So, no matter what, she was suffering a loss that would cripple her future. After all, since she already hailed from an Elemental Clan, she wouldn't be allotted any slots—to visit Earth—in the Sects, if she managed to enter one.

And as one of the only two people in her Clan with such affinity towards Water Qi, her action was detrimental to their Clan itself.

But to her proposal, the head Elder gave his nod of approval, "Granted."
