Weed’s hands started to thread the air.
As the lights got tangled and wavered, he preserved the pattern.
Rather than stone or wood, light was being used to create a sculpture!
It was a work that needed meticulousness and details.
His 10 fingers moved delicately as if he was playing an instrument.
The thickness of the light changed depending on the power of the intensity and time. Because the thread could change in quality, if one couldn’t focus their concentration and feelings to the utmost, then they couldn’t even attempt to sculpt.
While working on the light sculpture, Weed had a charismatic aura around him.
Gathering and caressing the light; it was the pinnacle of an Artist who worked with light!
The light sculpture was so captivating that even if lightning were to strike beside it one would not notice.
Finally, a pair of wings that were made from the silver-blue threads of light were completed!
– Please set a name for the statue.
Weed, who was looking at the statue as it emerged, said.
“Wings of Light.”
If the onlookers knew the name that was given to the sculpture at that moment, they would have felt a sadness ripping at their hearts.
Wings made out of fantastic light.
It’s as if the Wings of Light gave its name to itself!
Weed’s lips formed a big warm smile.
‘As expected, my naming sense is the best.’
– Would you like to use the name “Wings of Light”?
“Yes.”
*Ding!*

Overwhelming astounding work!
Although he had created a few sculptures using Moonlight Sculpting, this time one could say that it was a true Moonlight Sculpture.
The sculpture had the highest artistic value out of all of Weed’s sculptures thanks to the historical value.
The pair of elegant Wings of Light floated in the air while flapping.
Weed lamented while hitting the ground.
“This is a failure, a huge failure.”
“…”
The wings would pierce the mind of any Dwarf who looked at them.
They wanted to insult and criticize Weed.
‘Are you insane, crazy Dwarf!’
‘Calling a work such as this a failure, are you making fun of us!’
A legend was made. In fact none of the Dwarves present, had ever seen a light sculpture. Such a sculpture was made, yet the creator was despairing over it!
“A Sculptor like me who does not have talent deserves to die. *Heug-heug*. How could I create a lousy sculpture.”
“?.”
“I blame my half-hearted effort. If only I spent more effort making it.”
However, Weed’s Wings of Light sculpture was harder to work on than any sculpture he had made thus far.
He needed maintain a constant sense of his fingers to match the intensity of the colors of light and control them uniformly. He could not hesitate when making it. Any bold moves have to be exact.
Everyone gathered knew where the roughly 4 hours spent on sculpting the Wings of Light.
Cooled sweat soaked Weed’s forehead and back.
“Death Hand.”
“Huh? Di-Did you call me?”
Death Hand was embarrassed as he looked blankly at the Wings of Light. He was stunned.
Weed had put together an apology.
“I’m Sorry.”
“What, What? Why are you apologising to me…”
“You were right. An incompetent sculptor like myself is not worthy of creating art.”
“…”
“Using my crude skills to make such a sorry failure, I don’t think I can bear to live with the shame.”
“…”
There were slight flaws in the Wings of Light.
When making a pair of wings, both sides should be identical but if you looked closely you could see that the wings were of different sizes.
There were microscopic defects but it was unnoticeable under the naked eye. But if people were to look at the sculpture closely, they would notice the small microscopic defects.
Given that perfect sculptures are rare and this was the first sculpture of light, this sculpture was closer to perfection rather than a failure. It actually came out to be a one of Weed’s Grand Masterpieces.
“It’s shameful and embarrassing. If there was a mousehole, I would want to crawl into it. An incompetent sculptor, like myself, can only die.”
Weed was mimicking Death Hand’s words and flinging them back at him.
“My sculpture seems to be soiled. Sculptors like me are useless in the future, Death hand, what are your thoughts?”
“Me, I…”
Kuruso’s notorious Death Hand was embarrassed and too lost for words.
The Dwarves who were captivated by the “Wings of Light” regained their senses.
Weed and Death Hand’s sculpture battle!
Weed was victorious.
‘Art Hand had won.’
‘Death Hand was finally defeated!’
***
Weed and the other dwarves listened to Death Hand’s words of surrender.
“Previously I was haughtily flaunting my skill, I’m sorry.”
– You have eradicated the Evil Being of Kuruso.
With this the quest from the Guard’s statue was completed!
“You are one talented Dwarf. Once I have polished my sculpting skills, I will be back to challenge you again.”
Death Hand pulled out a 15 cm tall sculpture from his bosom and gave it to Weed.
– You have obtained a sculpture from Death Hand.
“I hope that you will treasure this statue until the day we meet again.”
Forlornly, Death Hand turned around and left.
“What, he left after giving me only 1 sculpture?”
“So this is how things come to an end…”
The Dwarves watched with fallen shoulders.
The Knight of Balgest was excellently portrayed in the sculpture, it was a great work. In addition, the sight of the making of the Wings of Light would become an unforgettable memory.
However, with Death Hand’s reputation and capability, this was nowhere near the end!
