Chapter 244: Something for smashing. (2/2)
“So you have been able to deliver it to theh that worked itself out on its own ”
Mary nodded as she didn't need to sle the divine device in herself, Wayland's friend by the name of Lobelia carried this out instead They were now infor their own people The infected would not be able to leave the underground without being treated by the runic devices
Arthur hoped to have the thieves guild take care of their own mess as they certainly didn’t want the cult to control their round ue and outbreak like in Reeka they would quickly flee fro to not lose theirthe cultists was one of theetnow…”
…
“So, it’s finally out? I guess it was only aabout strange creatures, the city lord had to ave a heartwar, at least that’s whatfilled with alcohol while talking with Roland Both of the the current events The information about the evil cultists was now iemen of the dukedom The outbreak in Reeka had becoees and survivors from that day He was one of the under control this fast
‘Did he start preparing after I brought the bad news?’
“Hey boss, I’ve seen you’ve been turning the smelter on, you don’t need to bother yourself with that, I can make whatever you want!”
“Hah, thanks but I want to o ahead and prepare the shaft”
It took quite soot for his neeapon to be produced This was mostly due to the red mythril that he included in thepoint He really needed to crank up the smelter and actually boost it with his own ether with his concoction was he able to finalize the product
“Wouldn’t it have been better to use a cast if you’re usinginto shape…”
“It should be fine, I did all the calculations”
While casting the melted metal into aso the weapon would produce a tougher ite it with the hammer and some blacksmith skills could increase the quality of the produced item
“If you say so, just don’t burn down the place!”
“I’ll try not to”After the break the two parted ways, he had the rest of the day to finish the haet Elodia angry Ever since returning to the city he had been sleeping for three to four hours and staying up for the rest of the day Surprisingly he wasn’t feeling tired at all, his body was young and strong The only probleirlfriend as constantly worried
Luckily down in his workshop, she would not be able to coe, someone without the constitution of a blacks five rabbed a thick leather s apron and placed it over his body for added protection Together with se ingot that would be the base for his Warhaular shape with so was a silvery blue Even though he ether with the other various ht up quite nicely to produce a nice effect on this silvery surface and perhaps take his eneht
Finally, with the help of his tongs, he inserted the large piece into the furnace On the bottouide ment the flames It would be i the temperature needed ood or coal would be close to impossible
On the wall, he had a set of various blacks Ha curved surfaces Planishi+ng hammers with round and square faces, with curved and flat surfaces These were nored them for now Instead, he looked to the cross pein haet himself the best for the job
He took a moment to appreciate the variety of tools that he had Some of these were hand-made by him while others by Bernir or his wife Some were polished down by the runic tools that were in another section of the sress and the ladle that was his first test when he joined the blacksmith ranks Even now he vividly recalled how tiresome it was to make and how barely he
Then there was the anvil that had lasted him for years now Without a proper anvil with a horn, rounded edges, and a sturdy face, it would be i This would be the final test for this tool However, with a proper heated-up ingot, even this anvil would be able to survive through the shaping process
‘This is taking a while…’
A lot of time had passed since he inserted the alloy into the furnace Regular low-carbon or medium-carbon steel would be softened up withinforever, it was trouly resisting the heat due to the exotic metal he added Yet, even it wouldn’t be able to last forever and soon it was ready for so process ht be difficult it wouldn’t be a probleh he left a lot of the busy work up to Bernir and his wife he still continued to train his s up these skills
He would be given a bonus after finishi+ng hard-to-construct creations like the gole skills would be pushed forward After several high-quality products were asse skills faster than he was accustomed to Each level added to his skills per usual, it was as ifexperience flowed into his body just by leveling up a skill
Thanks to this effect he was feeling great when e ha shape The face started to take on a box-like shape while the rear end was more cylindrical
To balance out the front part he needed to erpower to pierce through-hardened skin and scales He deliberated on shaping the rear end to be more similar to an axe but this shape somehow fit a hammer more in his opinion
Soonto an end He did not even notice Bernir knocking on the door to clock out Everyone had left while he was busy applying the finishi+ng touches He could not allow the metal to cool down too er it would take
“There…”
With one last hit, he looked at his creation which was slowly getting cooler The front part was larger than his own fist and the rear end could easily pierce through a growntouches, the top required so and then the runes could be added While the red mythril would normally make it hard to inscribe runes, thanks to the added etheriueable even for him
His new creation was partially done but this was not the end While he had decided on the shape he was not quite sure what spells were needed An iht was astyle needed looking into
‘After I finish this, I need to test it out on so and I already knoho’
Roland continued to add the finishi+ng touches while thinking of the underground dungeon He hadn’t seen his old friend in a while and it would be the perfect test dummy for his neeapon
