291 7.19 Upgrade From Iron Tools To Steel. (1/2)
”Robin, didn't the wolves you killed just now drop any spoils? I failed to notice it until now.” Matilda's voice was soft but audible enough to hear and stirred me from my slumber.
”Urgghh... No spoils. Only spoilt meat. Rabid and rancid meat. Cannot eat.” I sat up and rubbed my eyes and went over to the spring water and drank some and washed my face.
”How long have I slept? It seems forever to me...” I asked Matilda while she was munching on a Snickers bar that she snuck it with her when she went to the crews' buffet table in the background when I slept.
”Hmm...? I don't know... Maybe 2 hours or so. I forgot to change check the time when I have gone over to the table there to get something to bite. You want some...?” she offered me her half-eaten bar of snickers which had her mouth's fluids slobbered around it. ”We are not in a relationship and yet you wanted me to share your fluids?” I thought.
”Errr... No, thank you. I could get mine if I wanted to later. By the way, after you finish your snack, you'd better go and sleep. I'd take this watch and furthermore, I've got something to do too.”
”What do you need to do? Are you going to leave me all alone here? Would it be better off for me to sleep in the trailer? Tell me you half dim-witted dum dum...!” she implored and hugged the blanket closer to her.
”Just go to sleep... Sigh....” what a talkative little airhead. I moved a few distances from her and sat cross-legged while I hold my crumpled piece of a sword in my lap and I meditated and soon arrived in the Realm of Mind.
”Time to get to work...! I went to the Refined Steel area and picked a plate and went to the next Blacksmith area and visualised a fusion chamber. It would be like one with five slots and the finished product in one slot in the middle. I could place a weapon, an enhancement and another material in any of the slots and it is going to be like a roulette thingy. I removed the gem from the socket of the sword and put it in my pocket.
I placed my crumpled sword in one slot and I placed the Refined Steel in the other. Now there's no more forging or hammering, everything should be done with this fusion chamber. I slid to close the door and shut it firmly. I chose the slider to 'weapon' and pulled the handle like a jackpot machine.
(This is the best I could think of as a fusion chamber. I hadn't seen one so I have to think of one.)
Keeping my fingers crossed and my eyes closed, I prayed for the best and the best did arrive early as a Christmas present...!!
*Ding* Fusion complete. Success!
There was a lot of white smoke/mist coming out from the door as I slid it open and lo and behold! A new sword was born and it was placed inside the middle, finished slot. I drew it out and weighed it in my hands and find that it's a dull blade and needs blade washing. I stepped to the grinding stone and spun it to high speed and began to lay the blade on it.
”Zziiiiinnnggg... Zziiiiiiiiinng... Zziiiiiiiiinnnnnnngggg...” the blade moved over the grinding stone and I slowly blade washed it until I got a double-edged sword. The tip was sharpened as well for stabbing purposes. I used the circular dual stone to sharpen the edges to be as sharp as a katana and when I'm done it looked perfect!
I rubbed my thumb over it and it made a 'twaaaang... twaaaang... twaaaannng' sound and I'm satisfied with the results. The blade is now slightly thicker and when I tried to bend it, it doesn't provide much yield. I placed it into its scabbard and it fitted snugly.
Time to upgrade the tools too. I logged off my meditative state and returned to the real world and found Matilda was staring right into my face when I opened up my eyes. I blew at her and she backed away and pinched her nose. ”Eh eh... Mulut bau busuk macam bangkai tikus...!”

I laughed at her for her silliness as she commented about my bad breath that smelled like a dead rat. Hahahahaha.
I showed her my sword and she was surprised to see that it had gotten brand new and not curly like someone's nostril hair...!! Hahahaha.
