Chapter 130 Getting his cut. (1/2)

“Ugh…”

A somerinkled Rolandand he had stayed inside the tub filled ater for the entire night His body was kind of aching after resting against the

“I need to stop sleeping in that thing…”

Roland twitched a bit after feeling soni was there to greet him which alni…”

“Woof!”

With only a tower around his waist, Rolanda plain white shi+rt and so inside the refrigerator he luckily found it restocked

There was soes There was also no lack of beer in here that Bernir was sure to buy

“Here your share, you’ve earned it”

Agni got a little pat on the head and also a bowl filled with meat He had saved his hide back there in the et

Roland started eating, the dried provisions that he had at the dungeon ran out quite fast Afterward, he was stuck eating grilledafter two days

He wanted to relax and go to one of the more fauild owed hiuildready when he returned

‘This is the last tireed and fear The only reason he took this job offer was that he didn’t want to wait With his profession, he would be able to make money even with the mana stone variant of the runic iteet that knowledge hi to different cities and hire soot scared of people round

There were the cultists and the assassin hired by someone from the Arden estate Roland found it hard to relax so he risked it all to get his hands on items that would help him build up his power

He was successful this time around but he could have very well just fallen to his death during that volcanic worm event It didn’t seem that his family are of his existence, even his older brother didn’t notice that it was him

After so many years had passed he didn’t think that anyone was looking for him anymore That would still leave him with the cultists which were probably a more realistic adversary Yet he didn’t think they would bother sending anyone too powerful to find a young blacksmith

They probably never looked into his identity and were forced out of the city rather fast It was nouards that fled the city around the same time as he did

It was hard to relax for someone like Roland that was trapped in his own th to face someone at the level of those cultists, he would not be able to relax fully With that in oleh some of the runic theory books that Lucille lent hi this He had also nabbed a nice big Elokin crystal that could be used as a power source

With it this automaton could move around freely, still this was a finite power source that could not be replenished He was hoping to design a sort of runic battery that could be recharged with his wind turbines

For now, he had a lesser prototype that could store an excess but it was not portable enough to insert into a huolem The easiest ould be to use soet for any opponent this gole boss!”

Roland’s thoughts came to a halt after his assistant appeared Bernir looked sohtly The little scuffle with the thieves had apparently given the half-dwarf so, I’ve seen that you have been busy, that arive you a surprise but then those thieving bastards appeared…”

“Yes, I’ve seen the backyard, didn't know your punches could produce holes that big, ilist instead”

Roland smiled while Bernir turned his head to the side His previous retelling stated that he battled the four with his bare hands but Roland obviously knew that that wasn’t true

“So, hoas the weapon I gave you?”

“Ah, the Runic launcher? It was great but…”

“But?”

“The reloading mechanism could use some work…”

Roland rubbed his chin while Bernir told hi the reloading procedure and aled support, maybe a sidear on the reloadinga sun that people without combat classes could sounpowder runes would be used, the biggest problem would be the am small like a bullet This would ular bullets

A regular gun was still a good weapon for someone without any skills A powerful archer would still be better with a bow and all the skills made them even deadlier than a modern-day sniper

This would be only a backup weaponwhat to expect, the enemies would not be able to react to a bullet in ti like a revolver existed in this world

On the other hand, so like a musket wouldn’t be hard A small explosion rune or a pressurized wind rune would push the bullet outside The reloading would be faster than a regular unpowder into the muzzle

Instead, they could just insert a round bullet and then instantly take aiured out how to create a proper runic revolver

“So that’s what happened… Good job”

“No need to thank uild circles, they will probably think twice before trying soain”

Bernir co for the adventurer’s guild from this day forth They would probably think twice before attacking soanization as the adventurer’s guild

The possibility of getting robbed while they left on business was always there Roland would need to preparesouild

Just like any other merchant he needed soet himself competent protection Theadventurer

After having his breakfast and discussing sos with Bernir, Roland descended into his workshop The arain This suit of are as the parts on the arms didn’t match the rest of the set and were also in red color

“This will have to do…”

“I didn’t think you’d wear it yourself boss… isn’t it a bit tight?”

Bernir scratched his forehead while looking at Roland standing in the armor he made He didn’t show it but he was quite happy that the ite used

“It’s fine… surprisingly fits well, did you use one of the old schematics?”
