Chapter 47 Progress (1/2)

A tall young e anvil He earing a cotton shi+rt and had a large thick blacksmith’s apron over it The shi+rt was quite loose which allowed for more airflow and better ventilation Still, there was so on his brow

His build wasn’t very bulky but you could see quite a lot of tone on his arms and chest It looked like the youth’s body didn’t have a chance to build enough rowth spurt

The youth was standing in a blacksmiths workshop and had a flat piece of steel in his hand It was already heated up and red after he took it out of his forge This was obviously theon, he placed it on the anvil and started delivering hard hammer blows to it

The piece of steel started to slowly take shape The bloere delivered consistently over the whole length at high precision His hand didn’t shake and he never missed the correct spot Fro and an ethereal glow filling his eyes Which after the haular piece ofstretched out There was a lot of back and forth in this forging process The piece of metal needed to be reheated multiple times and hammered into the correct blade shape Soon it was noticeable that the young s bladed weapon

There was nothing et the piece of metal into a sword shape One end was pointed while the other one was left suard This end was called the tang and he needed to h the pouard and porinding The whole piece of metal needed to be filed down and sharpened to the utmost perfection before the next process

There were no power tools in this world but the youth had so si and grinding faster but at a s of a piece of steel that would be the crossguard started

The shape that was ha outwards froh the uard to the blade Hewith the ha so that it would take the desired shape

After the blade and the crossguard were ready only the porip and would have a circular shape After this was done the process of nor created stresses and nor that process he only needed to attach all the parts and polish everything to perfection

Without drills in this world, the swords were held in place by a certain technique that was called peening This was done by hah the hollow pommel Thanks to this the sword hilt wouldn’t slip anyht

If he ed to create a drill, he could just attach the round sword po it into place

After so product He looked at it while nodding but this wasn’t over yet He grabbed another hammer from the side, this one looked different froe runic pattern on the face side

The process of runecrafting had started The youth hammered away, this time with much less force The strikes were slow and precise and each time one landed a part of a rune was for did The youth had a couple of accessories helping his up a bit

Still, it took hi i a special kind of rune

An older looking Roland glanced at the stats of his creation He was slightly disheartened that he only h his runecrafting had taken off and he was now able to produce the highest tier runes of the lesser rank

This was the culmination of the last one and a half years of work A weapon with a double rune inscription He had ed to take the two popular runes of eable spell structure

The trick to using this kind of weapon ith the user's mana control It took some tie between the two skills This wasn’t a new skill but depended on the rune sche a working dual rune that could house two spells at once

There were a couple of techniques that a runesmith could ith here The one he used required the runes to be similar and share most of their components Both Mana Slash and Mana Thrust were similar in their runic spell structure He just needed to coht place so that they could be activated separately

The activation nodes for each one were in a slightly different place The user would need to remember where exactly and be able to correctly inject their n as it was troublesome for people that didn’t possess any mana related skills They would find it hard to control such items which lowered the market value a bit

Another way to do it would be to have separateThe user could then turn it around and connect the rune they wanted to use With such a design there was no need for mana control

He placed the finished sword to the side and exaress but he wasn’t quite there yet
