Chapter 72 (1/2)

No shops in the River Cove toould openly sell such a precious and expensive ic spells But that was not a proble of tricks

Only a day after Link had explained everything about enchanth purity Mithril ore containing old coins on six pounds of Mithril - not a bad bargain at all

The reason he could get sowas an incredibly complicated process This Mana conductivetemperature, so normal flames were insufficient to extract them

If you were a Magician, though, then nothing could be simpler All Link had to do was to use a displacer spell and in no ti them 62 pounds of Mithril

Then, he took Jacker's shi+eld, Lucy's sword and Gildern's bow, then went right back into his roo with them

”Givethey heard of him before he disappeared into the room

Outside the roo as to become of their weapons after three days

”I wonder what it would feel like wielding ahis hands, anticipating ould happen to his shi+eld

”Who knows?” said Lucy, ”I've got sword practicing to do” She picked up her practicing iron sword, walked out, and started training with a wooden dummy outside near the pavilion

She seemed focused, but in fact, she was quite distracted today and it affected her perforh the dummy Nine times out of ten she could easily stab the due to do that five times out of ten

Ah, Link is only seventeen, and he's still as pure as a child, he'd probably get bullied in the acade the academy soon, and she couldn't help but be worried for him

Gildern was the only one as the cal the three His spirits had been jolted by the fierce battle with Andy and the Dark Elf Magician He didn't want to feel helpless against a strong opponent as he did that day, so ever since then, he had been training likehis best to ireat too His performance had been stuck on a plateau nosoress

And so, three days' time had passed

On the afternoon of the third day, Link walked out of his roo the corridor

”Tell Jon in the kitchen to get ry,” ordered Link

”Yes,to the kitchen

”If you see Jacker and the rest on your way, tell them to come and see ot away The servant nodded deferentially in response

A fewin front of Link's roo a dish in her hands - it was roasted mutton rolls, her best dish

Link bearabbed it from Lucy's hand and quickly stuffed the food into his mouth At the same time, he pointed towards the rooet them”

The three went in and saooden shelf in the middle of Link's room On it, there was a shi+eld, a sword, and a bow Three days earlier, these weapons were plain and unrenizable even to the owners

The heavy steel shi+eld had become jet black, and its surface was now covered with rows and rows of thorns like porcupine spikes The sword, on the other hand, seeht When closely exaht was caused by sinally pale wooden boas now pure black with lines of red aura running through its surface like blood vessels

The eyes of the three ht of their weapons Their appearance alone would have been able to shock and intimidate anyone

Link leaned on the wall beside the door chewing on the mutton roll He smiled and said, ”Jacker, I've added the spell, Thorn, and a low-level Guarding Barrier spell on your shi+eld—the then it and protect you from impact If you use the shi+eld to block an attack, the opponent will feel the backlash of their attacks from the thorns This ork for about 100 ti Barrier spell will protect you from any spell that is under Level-2 I've also fixed a recovery spell on the shi+eld, so even if the shi+eld suffers any physical dae, if it's allowed to recover for three days, it will revert to its original condition, so you could use this shi+eld for as long as a year After a year, I will have to pour ic properties of the shi+eld, but I guess by then you should get yourself a new shi+eld”

The spell, Recovery fell under the field of enchantear and weapons In this world, the enerally faded over time The only weapons that didn't fade over tione enchantear with mythical levels of quality)

Link's enchanth he had a unique experience in building his oand, his skill was still far removed from the level needed to produce sacred or divine weapons

But even so, Jacker was more than happy with his newly improved shi+eld He picked up the brilliant shi+eld, waved it back and forth a few times, and remarked, ”This is the best shi+eld I've ever laid my hands on!”

He discovered that not only was the shi+eld boosted with ed as well The rough surface was gone and was replaced with a srip to prevent slip where the handle was, and even the center of gravity had been adjusted so it fit nicely in his hand, almost as if it were a part of his arm

”My lord, does it have a name?” asked Jacker

”If you don't h

”What a good name” Jacker handled the shi+eld carefully with both hands as if it were e it

Lucy picked up her sword too and the moht as if it had no weight at all, but once held in the hand, it felt as if it ed with her body—as if the sas an extension of her arm
