[He blinks at Dan Heng. Is that... concern? He wants to point out that hurting himself is literally how he uses his magic, but decides against it, because he actually doesn't want Dan Heng to worry about him. Blade thinks that the man has enough to worry about.]
Lapis said something like that, too. I suppose I don't have a choice, do I?
[He resists the urge to rub at the back of his head.]
It's good to know multiple weapons, in any case. [He thinks he remembers disarming the other man at least once, and it ended badly for Dan Heng.]
I don't know how much magic you possess, but you don't have to draw on your own power to use this. Anything that you cut with that blade will also be shocked by lightning. Consider it practice until I'm able to imbue it on my own without a ritual.
[He looks thoughtful and relatively unsuspecting of Dan Heng's true reasons.]
I always assumed a weapon like that ought to come with a lifetime warranty, anyway. How fortunate that the blacksmith's successor is here. Don't you dare think about paying me, either—the other Yingxing meant it to be a gift, and I intend to do the same with what I make for you.
