Randy arrived at the East Blacksmith and greeted by the muscular man. Each time he went to the East Blacksmith, this muscular which always greeted him. He wondered if East Blacksmith only had this muscular man as the attendant of East Blacksmith.

Randy knew his name on his third visit. The muscular man's name was Moja. He already worked for the East Blacksmith for twenty years. Moja was the direct apprentice of Old Man Bai which puzzled Randy.

He was the direct apprentice of Old Man Bai, but each time he always greeted the visitor at the entrance. He never saw Moja working a blacksmith. It was like a waiter or waitress in the restaurant. Greeting each guest who came to the blacksmith. He only visited for a few times though.

'Maybe in the other days, he was working as a blacksmith. So, accidentally each I came to East Blacksmith, he was not in the shift of working?' Randy thoughts wandered as he looked at the muscular man.

Moja greeted Randy and without asked him what his purpose, Moja led Randy to the Old Man Bai's room. He led Randy to Old Man Bai's room was not because he recognized him, but because it was his teacher's order.

His teacher ordered him if Randy was coming, he just needed to deliver Randy to his room directly. Although Moja didn't know who Randy was, he remembered Randy's face as only Randy the only people who ever came to his master's room.

Soon, Randy reached Old Man Bai's room. The dim room, with cool air, Randy saw Old Man Bai was sitting on the only chair on the rocking chair with his eyes closed. It seemed Old Man Bao noticed when the door opened, but he closed his eyes again after he looked the one who was coming was Randy.

As Randy got closer, suddenly a plate black armor with orange stripes appeared in Old Man Bai's hand. He immediately threw the plate armor to Randy.

Randy caught the plate armor and checked the shoulder part. The dented part back to normal, not even a trace left on that the shoulders part dented in.

Randy satisfied with the repair and put his Infernal Cuirass in the Storage System.

”Thanks, Old Man Bai,” Randy thanked Old Man Bai while bowing his head slightly. He didn't know if Old Man Bai had an ulterior motive or not by didn't put any charge for the repair his Infernal Cuirass, but at least he should say thanks.

Old Man Bai opened his eyes as Randy thanked him. His mouth curled upward as a satisfied smile appeared in his mouth.

”No problem, no problem,” Old Man Bai waved his hand to Randy, but his next words surprised him, ”If you want to repair or make a new weapon and armor, or all thing concerned blacksmith. I will not charge any fee for you. Of course, it's only three times only, and this repair is the first, so you still have two times free service,”

Hearing Old Man Bai's generous words, Randy shocked. This old man which didn't fancy gold, now giving him a generous service.

Two weeks ago Old Man Bai rejected a generous offer from the Eternal Shogunate. Eternal Shogunate offered Old Man Bai eight million gold to make equipment for them with the materials provided by Eternal Shogunate.

Randy didn't need to guess what the Eternal Shogunate requested for. Surely, they wanted to make Legendary equipment. But Old Man Bai rejected outright the offer of Eternal Shogunate which made an uproar in the forum.

Actually, this action was hidden from the crowd as no one knew at the first. But Ryou Tokugawa's little brother leaked this hidden action in his drunk state at the Entertainment Area.

Ryou Tokugawa's little brother was upset being rejected by Old Man Bai, he felt humiliated being rejected. That was why in the drunk state he spilled out the detail as he was one of Eternal Shogunate people who came to Old Man Bai. He also cursed Old Main Bai while telling the event rejected eight million gold.

The next day, there was someone dared to post what Ryou Tokugawa's little brother said and became a hot topic in the forum. Yet now, Old Man Bai was giving a generous service for him.

Randy now began suspecting this Old Man Bai had an ulterior motive behind his generous service. But what this old man could get from him? He had nothing except gold.

Old Man Bai noticed Randy suspicious gaze, but he ignored it. It was normal for Randy became suspicious of him, even for him would become suspicious if some stranger became so generous to him.

But still, Old Man Bai didn't clear Randy's doubt. He even didn't care if Randy became suspicious and would not come back again later.

”Oh, really,” After became suspicious for a while, his mood changed, he was delighted, ”Then, can you help with this,”

Soon, a big black sword appeared in Randy's right hand and handed it to Old Man Bai. There was a surprised on Old Man Bai's expression when he received the sword, although the surprised was in the split seconds before back to a nonchalant expression of his.

Nevertheless, Randy noticed that surprise of his. Although he didn't know why Old Man Bai surprised, indeed Old Man Bai surprised. It was only Epic Grade sword, but Old Man Bai was surprised.

”I don't know what to say. How come you become so lucky to get dragon bone and now you get in your hand Ascended Equipment. What a bullshit luck do you have...” Old Man Bai said with a serene attitude which didn't match with his words.
