[quote=@KoL] I thought something on those lines as well. But weren't the Einzbern (not saying I wanna be one yet, just for comparison's sake) supposed to be masters of metal manipulation? I was thinking that maybe there could be a way as a Western magus to do that as well. But the Eastern (more likely Chinese) approach might be easier to work out. [/quote] That's less metal manipulation and more just Western Alchemy. You can app that but like, the Einzberns were absolute geniuses at that, so even getting close to them in ability is bordering on impossible, and the Einzberns themselves are out of Fuyuki ever since Old Man Acht died in the Third HGW here.
