Chapter 34 forge (1/2)
After that, he used his divine sense to give a mental command to close the lid of the furnace.
Concentrating his mind on the oven, Theo began to manifest his golden flames to warm the furnace.
To Theo's surprise, his golden flames melted the iron inside the bronze cauldron quickly. He then controlled his flames to become weaker and connected his divine sense with the cauldron and began to mould the iron inside the cauldron.
At first, Theo was a little concerned that his flames were so strong that they would melt the cauldron in the process, but his worries were in vain because to form this bronze ranked cauldron, it needed more than 100 kilos of iron to form and was formed from the essence of iron, with almost no impurities found in it. So for him to be able to damage the cauldron, it wouldn't be so easy. Perhaps because the cauldron was now part of his body, the golden flames couldn't affect it.
Theo was quite surprised that, even though he put 5 kilograms of iron into the furnace with the intention to make a sword, many impurities came out from the iron and the amount of liquid iron left inside the furnace was only enough to form a dagger, but that did not disappoint Theo. Quite the contrary, he knew that the more impurities came out of the iron, the stronger the forged item. So he decided to forge a little dagger first to test it.
Moulding the liquid iron mass, Theo began to make it take the form of a dagger with his divine sense. He made it take the appearance of a simple dagger he remembered seeing in his past life.

Something flickered in Theo's eyes after he finished forging the dagger.
Opening the furnace's lid, Theo saw a silver dagger inside. Making it float with his divine sense, the dagger floated in front of him.
Looking at the dagger in front of him, Theo could see it's information.
[Rank 1] - [Iron Dagger] - [Quality: Average]
”Aee! I have successfully forged the dagger!” Theo exclaimed excitedly.
”Well, I need to increase my forge mastery to be able to forge something of rank 2...” Theo thought.
Seeing that the girls, Yuki and Shina were still cultivating, Theo decided to continue forging to improve his forge mastery.
Since he wanted to improve his forging first, Theo thought that it was better to forge with iron at the moment, since it's cost is less than if he were to buy silver or gold.
Buying more iron, Theo continued to forge.
”I was able to forge 15 swords of rank 1 and medium quality, and a quality rank 1 of high quality” Theo then thought: ”Although it was my first time forging, there was not even a low-quality weapon. Is this because of my flames?! Hm… might be that.”
Theo sighed and felt tired. Seeing the forged weapons by himself in front of him, he was satisfied with forging. ”I'll try to forge a rank 2 weapon later.” Even if it had been some time since he started forging, Yuki and Shina continued to cultivate.
Theo then left the [Dimensional Room]. Seeing that it was still raining outside, he walked toward the stove and began to prepare their lunch.
It wasn't long before the food was ready, so Theo entered the [Dimensional Room] again to call Shina and Yuki to eat.
”Oh! You finished cultivating. Let's go back? I've already prepared lunch for us.” Theo said when Shina and Yuki had finished cultivating.
