The Runesmith Kuropon 51230K 2022-09-11

Roland had now lived in this city for over a year Only now did he achieve the 25th level of his runic blacksold mine of experience but that wasn’t entirely true But he had li past the 10th level of this dungeon

Past it was the volcanic area of this dungeon where only tier 2 monsters appeared He wasn’t a true tier 2 class, he would rather be safe than sorry While going solo he was still able to gain some experience towards his weapon skills and armor proficiencies He had75 he was finally ready to give his next class change a try

With this, he decided to h this labyrinth repeatedly for a year he knew it like the back of his hand With the help of his high intelligence stat, re these corridors wasn’t that hard At this point in time, he didn’t even need to look at the map that much

There were some secret spots that weren’t charted down, just like the secret roolodytes there were some shortcuts between levels Luckily for him thanks to his skills he was able to spot them From tih the the secret chambers was easy

With a quick mana infusion, these secret roo up while others were hidden areas with respawnable treasures This place was still quite low leveled so he never did find anything costly but so a blacksmith he could inscribe runes into armor and weapons, then resell the a certain spot with his finger a path opened up It was just a corridor inding stairs going up Roland entered and h it after a couple of minutes he was out on the 3rd level Froeon normally

Roland looked around this place a couple of times There were still many adventurers here but not as many as before The foolhardy ones had been weeded out in the first year of the dungeon's opening Now not many of them ventured into the lower levels or past the 10th one that was for silver adventurers and up

In ti up the rocky stairs that led to the exit of this dungeon On the outside things had changed as well, for one thing, there were guards in front of the entrance They would check everyone's adventurer's cards before letting them venture forth This was all due to a certain foolhardy fareon

That person didn’tdevoured by one of thenibbled on by a sala to accept his farmer class and wanted to becoe store, the person that had been here selling ic potions at the entrance had expanded It was true that the ones that came first were the ones that profited the irl or the old man combo, they could now hire other people to do that work for them while they sat back at the store

Some of the people that attempted the same line of eren’t that lucky He heard ru robbed and their potion selling business going under

Roland was now far enough froeon He went behind a tree and re and placed it back into one of his spatial bags This one was ular ones and orn by him on his back

He stuffed it behind his armor plate which made it a bit uncoh This was due to as hidden inside He reached inside and started pulling, soon a wheel appeared followed by the rest of a peculiar transportation device

It had two round wheels that had so similar to rubber on them To the side of the back, wheel was a chain that connected below the sitting area This was a bicycle that Roland hadlike thein his old life

The seat that he sat on was quite long and connected to the handlebar directly There were no pedals for hi was powered by mana directly, he just made a rest for his feet a bit to the front

He sat down on it and after injecting so Roland used the eon at this point The people that he passed gave hie looks but he was used to it by now He was known by thee craftsman that lived out of the city At least as his disciple as most people didn’t want to believe that someone at sixteen could be a runic craftseon would take him more than half an hour on foot but with this new bike, he ed a couple of ti was the large log wall that also had a barbed wire part at the top

He had been visited by nosy ‘people’ a couple of tiencies in place they found theical traps but just as he had planned they didn’t find his s that he lost were iron and steel tools that could be easily replaced

Everything alled and fenced up, even the log cabin where he kept his regular furnace and tools That place was mostly what the thieves set their eyes on so it was easily defendable with soround or walls

He didn’t care ic happened was downstairs That was also where he was heading now Roland needed to prepare for his next class change, this would be best done behind closed doors where no one would bother hi out as the last ti in a safe space that was behind illusionary runes

The inside of his ho the renovations and all the wooden panels were painted over He even got hih without a vacuu the weekly cleaning drive

He was still living alone, with the trust issues he had built up throughout the years it was hard to create new relationshi+ps The people in the adventurer’s guild knew hiuy that wears crimson heavy armor It was a premade ar that he custo with the helmet

There were runes in each part, it took soic book He just needed to focus on the body part to cast a spell, some pieces had more than one runic structure to add to his repertoire This arear It wore down quite fast, he needed to repair it constantly but it was good enough to last hiear didn’t help during discussions with others though Roland was never the one to start the conversation and there was no purpose in tea as he was careful He hadwithout many problems and noas the time to take a step forward

‘Okay, what do I need?’

He locked the door behind him and was also sure to activate a defensive runic structure close to the door handle There was a sign outside to knock and wait If anyone grabbed the handle first they would be tasered It wasn’t quite that late but the sun was already setting, he didn’t expect any visitors so it would be on theo downstairs or over to a ss in it At least that's what it looked like to others With a couple of strategic presses of this illusion ic lock, a path doas revealed There was also a lock on the door for an added safetywith another door, this one very sturdy looking and made froive these a push to get theetting that status boost fro a tier 2 class On the inside was his workshop, he had used soic to make it wider and deeper This he had to do by hie, he knehere to place all the supportive colu his work he would be having a bad tis like a workbench with all his old tools There was a forge sticking out from the wall, it connected to the chimney of his house But there were special runes that filtered the s down beloouldn’t be s excessively

In a side rooine, after buet a workingup water and converting it to mechanical force by steam This was all done to produce electricity that then was stored in a specialmana out of electricity had born fruit He was now able to produce renewable energy on a sine worked si was done by sh The boiled water would produce steaenerate mechanical force This enerator that he fashi+oned froy from this was then transferred by some wires into the special battery unit that he had n and y was higher than what it took to keep the heated runes running

Thus he hadclose to a perpetual motion machine It wasn’t quite that as the strain on the materials existed plus the runes and components had to be replaced periodically He had it in a smaller room behind closed doors due to the loud noise that it made It wasn’t perfect but thanks to it he was able to create his power tools and also power soical devices around his house With tin but for now, it just worked

Ienda for today He had a tier 2 class quest to finish, he was already dreading the thought of what it could entail this ti one small runic spell The other one was harder as he had to e to speak of This ti-related test as well but there also could be soe crystal to start it A Solaria church had been built here recently so now he could just go buy those there He hoped that he would be able to pass the test on the first try but if not he could just getand there wasn’t a shortage of those crystals yet

“Here goes nothing”

Roland looked over his stats before sitting down in a chair He had the crystal in his hand and a bucket was to the side He hoped that he wouldn’t need to use it but it was better to have it on standby The test wouldn’t let hi he needed to worry about was not getting any visitors while being here

Soon he activated the crystal and was back at his old apart He didn’t look around at all this time around and just went to the recreation of his old apartment room The PC was quickly activated, the list of classes he could choose fro some tier 2 classes to pick from

“Weaponsmith… Armorsmith… the runic variations are there too…”

He started going through them one by one The classes that were above tier 1 were in a separate section and easy to spot There weren’t that many compared to the lower tier ones which had probably increased due to hie related tier 2 classes as expected… there is a tier 2 scribe class… also an advanced runicest drawback of that class was the ains

“Runesmith huh… it is there…”

The fabled class was there, it felt less special after he had attained the Runic Blacksmith one already He knew that it wouldn’t add her than the basic tier

“Huh, what is this class?”

There was a peculiar class showing up on the screen It was placed further away from the other ones and looked like it was above them in that way The sprite looked similar to a runesmith but it was a heavily armored version It held a runic hammer in one hand while in the other one was a shich made him think it was some kind of combination class

“Runesmith Lord? So these types of classes weren’t just rumors”
