14 Smithing (1/2)

”Is this the Thunder steel smithy?”

”Ah, yes, help yourself in, I will be there in a second”

I heard an aged voice answer to me as soon as i entered through the door, accompanied by the sound of hammering coming through from the smithing room.

”Here am I, so what can I help you with”

A dwarf, that was my first impression as I saw the smith, however, he was quite bulky like the village head, and had a small pair of glasses on, I wondered if this species actually existed in this world.

”Uh, it's actually me, who is wondering about that, I came to help with the work smithy as assigned within the request list that I received from the village head”

”Ohhhhh, that, I was wondering when someone would come, I have left that request for more than a month, thank god you came, I'm getting too old for this”

”So, what do I actually have to do?”

”I would have liked to let you rest and share a cup or two of drinks, but we have no time for this, follow me”

I followed the smith into the room he just came out from, he didn't bother asking for details so it either meant he was so desperate for help, or that he just trusted the village head this much.

”We will have to do a quick test first before putting you to actual work, try raising this hammer”

I touched the hammer slightly as 'weapon Resonance' activated on the spot.

[Refining Hammer lv.1]

[rarity - common]

[Requirements - Strength +10, Constitution +5]

These were all the information I could view for now, as I didn't have 'Hammer-mastery' yet, but theses information were enough for this task.

Raising this hammer may have been a hassle for the old Ian, but for the current me who satisfied the requirements, it was a piece of cake.
