Blacksmith Hafran.
Lee Tae-yeon said he was blunt and rarely showed emotion. And he also said that it was very expensive to himself.
The NPCs and gods who saw her looked at her with contempt and contempt, but they didn’t do that to Harran, they just saw her as a trading target. It was said that
it was one of the few places of rest she had during her difficult times .
“I am a blacksmith. Do you know what kind of job it is?”
Taesan nodded. Hafran continued.
“The monsters here are equipment and materials. Drop two. There are several ways to treat the material. One of them is for sale in stores. And what to use as a material for equipment. It’s like this in a big way.”
Caang.
The sound of hammering echoes. The heat blazes.
“Bring me the ingredients. Then
I’ll make you the equipment you want.”
This part was the reason for using the blacksmith.
Equipment can be obtained from monsters or secret rooms, but the type is random. You never know if a ring will come out, a weapon will come out, or a staff will come out. The probability of getting the equipment the party wants is extremely low.
However, if you use a blacksmith, the story changes. As much as you can choose the equipment you want, the part that depends on the probability will be reduced.
The equipment that a blacksmith can make is
inferior compared to the drop, but Lee Tae-yeon received a lot of equipment that was useful.
” How much is it?”
“Because it’s my first time, I will serve you. Weave the ball.”
“Hoo.”
Even if it wasn’t, money was tight, but it wasn’t bad. Hafran continued his explanation.
“If you intend to continue doing business with me, keep that in mind. I do not discriminate with whom to trade. It doesn’t matter if you are a lowly person or a guide to sin and evil.
What matters to me are materials and equipment. That’s all, if you’re going to talk about him, get out of here.”
“Was there a guy like that?”
“There was. It was so loud that the annoying things became their exclusive.”
Hafran frowned. It was probably referring to the guide to sin. It means that he overcame that, so the harp wouldn’t be weak again.
“I don’t mean to.”
“That’s it. What do you want?”
After thinking for a while, Taesan replied.
“Wrist guards.”
Among the armor Taesan was wearing, the arm guard was the least valuable. Hafran nodded.
“Give me the ingredients.”
Taesan opened his inventory and took out the ingredients. Numerous pieces of leather teeth fell in abundance.
“…that’s a lot.”
The dwarf, who saw Taesan with a slightly tired face, gathered the ingredients.
“Come back in thirty minutes.”
“Is that fast?”
Taesan was quite surprised to know that it would take a day. Hafran said softly.
“It’s not an in-depth material, it’s a common thing, so there’s no reason for it to take long.”
thirty minutes. It was time to clean up a floor and come back. Taesan left the room. Hafran said as he took out the ingredients.
“Come later.”
widely.
The door is closed. Taesan started breaking through the rooms.
It wasn’t that fast. It takes 30 minutes. I was thinking of moving forward as it would take less than 10 minutes if I put my mind to it.
But even taking that into account, it was an unbelievable speed. Thirty minutes per floor. Kang Jun-hyeok, who takes several days to break through one, will bewitched a laugh when he sees it.
Break through the secret room and collect the reward.
[Solid cross shield]
[Attack power + 5]
[Defense power + 2]
[A very solid shield. It seems to be able to block even a ballista.]
The shield doesn’t mean much to him right now, but if you sell it at a shop, you’ll get a decent price. Or you can take it to Hafran. I heard that they do not only reorganize materials, but also equipment.
Finished the secret room and dealt with the boss. It was larger and darker in color than other races. It was a monster that exercised even a little bit of physical power, but
it disappeared as soon as the frost arrow was sharpened.
[Hammer]
[Repair of equipment becomes possible.]
[A hammer that someone lost. For craftsmen, their own equipment is like life. If so, who would have lost it?]
“Does the equipment have durability?”
[Yes.]
“I didn’t know.”
Taesan, who broke through the labyrinth, was also the first to know. The equipment obtained here boasted invariance in terms of durability.
[But it doesn’t mean much. Weapons and armor are the kind that are changed frequently, and the overall durability is extremely strong, so I usually change them before they go crack.]
“As expected.”
Still, I found information that there was durability that I hadn’t known even in my previous life. In Taesan’s experience, no matter how useless information was, it was sure to be used someday
.
Taesan also confirmed the secret reward.
[A ring with many jewels]
[Attack power + 8]
[A ring that cannot be used for anything other than decorative purposes. If you hit it with more than necessary jewels, it will hurt quite a bit.
The attack power is applied only to the area being attacked, so the attack power of the ring is
often meaningless. It’s probably a secret reward in the sense of earning capital by selling it to a shop.
However, it was difficult to find a better equipment for Tae San, who has Airak weapon skills. Excluding the attack power 1 ring I was wearing, it was equivalent to the attack power 7 weapon.
After completing the clearing, Taesan returned to Hafran.
“You came just fine. It’s just over.”
Hafran handed over an ankle brace made of leather.
[Arm guards made of ogre skin]
[Defense + 13]
[It was made with the hands of an artisan. It’s still new, so it smells a little.]
“Ohhh.”
Quite high.
It was 13 using only ogre skin without using any other materials. It was made there in thirty minutes. It was satisfactory enough.
“From now on, you get paid. You know that because the amount of money you receive varies depending on the value of the item .
For now, I have the ingredients.”
“As convenient as possible.”
Even if Taesan had the ingredients, it would be meaningless. Since it only takes up inventory unnecessarily, it was more convenient for both sides to have Hafran keep it and make it when Taesan visits.
I’m done making it right now. He also checked what level of equipment Hafran could make.
“See you later.”
I thought of going down to some extent and coming back with better materials and money.
The Dwarf also nodded.
A ghost caught him leaving.
[Can you make something better than this?]
Hafran said calmly.
“I can make it. But
there is not enough material or money.”
The best material Taesan has is ogre skin. In order to make more than that, the materials were needed first.
[Not that. Don’t you know what I’m talking about?]
Hafran frowned. The ghost continued.
[Something that only you, not anyone else, can make. Equipment with special powers. An object that can be made with the materials of a place that only those with permission can enter.]
“. ….Warrior.”
[I assure you. It’s possible with this guy.]
“Hmm.”
Hafran stroked his chin. he opened his mouth
“Do you know the value of that place? And what that place meant to me.”
[You know better than anyone. You only said that to me.]
“You said it so easily knowing that?”
Hafran’s eyes sunk endlessly.
The warrior immediately affirmed.
[Is it possible. I know, I’m talking about it.]
Hafran kept his mouth shut. Taesan asked, leaving him lost in thought.
“What are you talking about?”
It is a permitted place. A piece of equipment with special powers. As far as he remembers, Lee Taeyeon didn’t say anything like that.
It was either one. Either I forgot or she wasn’t allowed to.
[Do you remember why I came here?]
“I said the world was destroyed. He came to bring it back.”
[Similar to me. If there’s a difference, Hafran can go back to his own world.]
Hafran pondered for a while before opening his mouth.
“I only told you that. I didn’t even mention it to the others. Because they just weren’t worth it.”
Hafran
said to the warrior with calm eyes.
“And you didn’t make it to the end either.”
[I did. But this guy can do it.]
It was a confident statement.
[Especially this one is definitely possible.]
Hafran frowned.
“…I know he’s strong, but he’s a rookie who hasn’t reached the 20th floor yet. Beating the 20th floor with the body of the 13th floor is definitely a big deal, but it’s worth spewing out my own secret…
[30th floor.]
“Yes?”
[This guy won against the adventurers on the 30th floor.]
Hafran’s pupils widened. For the first time, an expression of shock appeared on his face.
“…Are you lying?”
[Did I ever lie to you?]
“But…
the disbelief didn’t disappear from Hafran’s eyes.
It was surprising to win 20th floor with 13th floor, but it is not impossible at all. Hafran had been here for a long time, and he had seen occasional instances of his talent and skill overwhelming his stats.
But it wasn’t even that often. Only those with fingertip talent could win against those who went deeper, and even that had clear limits. No one had ever won against an enemy with a difference of more than 10 floors.
But you can overcome it against the 30th floor.
After thinking for a while, Hafran opened her mouth.
“I need confirmation.”
[What confirmation?]
“Confirmation that he won against the 30th floor.”
Hafran said with a sunken face.
The ghost apologized to Taesan, who was unexpectedly put to the test.
[Did it happen too suddenly? sorry. But it seemed like it would be hard to get the timing right if it wasn’t now.]
“It doesn’t matter.”
If you get a benefit, you can accept the ordeal appropriate for it. There was one thing Taesan was curious about.
“Is what you say worth it?”
[The garage overflows,]
said the Ghost in a confident voice.
[If you get Hafran’s approval, you’ll be able to become stronger in many ways.]
“That’s enough.”
Being able to become strong outside of the labyrinth was an advantage to him other than simply strength. Because it meant that something else might be found. Maybe you could get a new skill.
[And you want to reach them.]
Tae-san hesitated at the ghost’s muttered voice.
“Did you notice?”
[You can’t know.]
Right after meeting Maria, Taesan first showed a fighting spirit, not awe or fear. The ghost was so inexperienced that he couldn’t read it.
[I am. I don’t think you’re pursuing too high a place… but if you want that, it’ll be a pretty valuable experience.]
Hafran appeared with a scroll as if he had finished his preparations.
“A summoning scroll?”
Hafran’s eyebrows moved at Taesan’s words.
“I know? It must have been almost forgotten now.”
“There is a kite.”
Taesan has also been used in the past.
Summoning Order. It was a spell to summon a sealed monster. It was also an item whose value jumped sharply depending on the class of the sealed monster.
“The Balrog is sealed here
.”
[What?]
The ghost was frightened. A demonic monster that barely emerges from the depths of the city in Alone Mode. It was a being comparable to a dragon. Halfran shook his head.
“There is no need to worry because it has deteriorated and deteriorated and has not even had a speck of dust.”
[It’s a surprise. You were surprised.]
“Still, I am not weak. It must be at least the boss level of the second half of the 20th floor. Are you really going to accept it?”
Taesan nodded.
Hafran tore up the scroll with a suspicious look.
“Chur uh uh!”
A cry echoed through the labyrinth. A black monster with horns and wings appears.
[The sealed Balrog appeared.]
The Balrog, who was suddenly released into the world, looked around in bewilderment. Taesan, who pulled out his sword, was caught in the gaze of the ballock.
Trapped for an immeasurable amount of time, his intellect and spirit fell infinitely, but his instincts did not fade.
The human in front of him is hostile to him.
Those who oppose it kill.
The balrog rushed at Taesan with a scream.
The ghost moved away from Taesan for a while and approached Hafran.
[Do you still doubt it?]
Hafran was speechless at the ghost’s words.
Even though it was sealed, Balrog is strong. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was at the level of the 30th floor, considering the intimidation and special skills that the land of the second half of the 20th floor had.
“Chur!”
The Balrog screamed in pain.
Against such an existence, Taesan was overwhelming.
Level up with skill
