The Legend of Return
Chapter 308. Opportunity in Crisis (1)
KANG! kang! kang!
He swung his hammer non-stop at the forge in the castle.
It was a quiet late evening, but it did not stop.
– A large amount of magical power has been given to the sword. A hard, durable blade is complete.
– Blacksmith skill has become Beginner 9.
– Your hard-working blacksmith, Vakula, has given you Mana Points of Cheering.
These days, notification sounds have become very friendly.
It seems that AlphaDak took the medicine.
There are times when I get goosebumps at the soft voice of the notification window.
Chee-it-chee-ik.
Drops of sweat from the upper body, which had thrown off the jacket, dripped onto the red metal, creating steam.
As his physical abilities became stronger, his physical body also changed.
I didn’t sweat at all physical labor.
But when he applied his magic, sweat poured like rain.
Over the past 15 days, he has been working hard on making magic weapons.
Baron Lubeck, whose face I didn’t even know, kept bothering me, but there was nothing I could do about it.
The only answer was to become strong enough to gain time.
He sucked the magic stone and drank it like every day.
Unlike the first time, the medicine teeth of the magic stone were not large.
When it reached a certain level, it didn’t seem to be greatly affected by lower-level mana stones.
Whenever he had a chance, he would drink mana, summon spirits, or practice weapon skills.
Yeongjijeon had many people to avoid except for me.
“Sweet it quickly.”
He picked up a magic stone, stared at it, and smacked his lips.
According to the mage Sabina’s explanation, once a mana stone is equipped, even a low-grade stone can continue to use mana for decades.
Even if a certain amount of mana continues to be released, it will be replenished if the owner infuses it.
However, if I suck and drink, the lifespan is over quickly.
It seemed to absorb more than the emission limit.
This result was said to be a phenomenon that occurs when magicians sometimes draw and use magic that exceeds the limit.
“It’s too bad I can’t drink anymore.”
Disappointment came as efficiency declined.
There was a mistake in the plan to increase mana by sucking the mana stone side.
As the level went up, the lower magic stones were useless.
It has become a situation where a mana stone of at least intermediate level is required.
The mana stone, which can be sold for hundreds of gold coins, has become unusable.
These days, he was spurring his skill training.
Among them, he fell in love with the role of a blacksmith.
“It was so salty~. Kuck.”
When I remembered what happened then, my whole body was thrilled.
It wasn’t stealing, but he robbed the cavalry soldiers.
They would be enemies anyway, so they didn’t show any acknowledgment.
He confiscated all of the knights and cavalrymen’s armor and weapons on charges of insulting the lord.
He took off his ring, necklace, and coin without leaving a single one.
The sight of them returning to their masters like beggars wearing the rough clothes worn by commoners.
I watched it from the top of the castle wall.
Of course, the knights who were exceptionally strong were imprisoned.
The knights plan not to release themselves until they see the outcome with the baron.
“If you rob the baron, you’ll get rich right away, right?”
got greedy
Talman had tipped off that Baron Lubeck was quite wealthy.
It was natural since he was a greedy lord.
Soldiers were augmented.
The mercenaries of the 2nd Mercenary Corps who followed Sabina were impressed and 100 volunteered to become soldiers.
It was like he fell in love with my nerdy spirit.
The mercenaries said that even if they died, they would live like freshly made cool holy water.
He personally took care of the weapons of those soldiers.
Blacksmith skills increased rapidly.
Their loyalty soared just as well.
I handed over one of the knight armor sets to Talman.
Talman’s mouth was torn open.
Magical armor and magic weapon sets that are hard to obtain even if you work as a mercenary for the rest of your life made Talman dance even while sleeping.
When I shoot, I shoot for sure.
The selected soldiers were evenly distributed among the cavalrymen.
Only then did the Yeongji soldiers look like real soldiers.
Referring to the stolen magic armor and magic sword, I swung the hammer for days and days.
He knew about intermediate blacksmithing skills, but he couldn’t get past the beginner level.
He had to be able to bestow magic power to become a true intermediate blacksmith.
I know it in my head, but it wasn’t easy to break the wall.
But the results weren’t bad.
As each day passed, the blacksmith’s skill level rose and the magic power granted became stronger.
Magic was also used in the normal iron sword, increasing attack power and increasing strength.
“… Mounting the Mana Stone is a problem…”
Picking up the unfinished sword, he struggled.
The socket for the mana stone was empty.
In other words, the final process of the sword remains.
A magic sword that is distinctly different from a normal sword.
If you stop it now, it becomes a usable sword, but if you put a magic stone in it and process it, it becomes a completely different magic sword.
I was at a crossroads of choice.
Looking at the magic swords of the knights lying next to her, she felt sick to her stomach.
Unlike Orc weapons, when infusing magic, the effect was dead.
I felt like I could make it with a little more effort.
Intermediate blacksmith skills lingered in my memory and seduced me.
“Yes, life is a series of challenges and responses anyway!”
Decisions are always quick.
If we achieve something here, it will help us back on Earth.
It was magic and blacksmithing skills that the gods of Earth did not have.
No matter how much finance sweeps away ghostly money, what remains is the manufacturing industry.
The reason why the US entered the global trade war starting with China in 2018 was also aimed at recovering the US manufacturing industry.
Even if they printed free money, it was of no use if the manufacturing industry was unstable.
The United States made a lot of money through financial business, but ordinary citizens did not feel the reality of money.
Only the wealth of the top 1% increased.
Trump, who was elected with the votes of a crumbling middle class and manufacturing workers, knew that all too well.
Unlike Choi Byung-bak, he was a smart merchant.
He captured the hearts of American citizens in order to hold the presidency until the next generation.
The Democratic Party, which has been in power for a long time, has been judged.
Side effects continued, but Trump did not budge.
A real thug had no fear.
I started to tinker with cheeky China.
In particular, China was caught stealing and cheating openly and caught by Trump, a shrewd merchant.
It was a reward for being greedy to become the owner, not a global factory.
The U.S. used all means to harass China.
China, which had piled up debt one after another for growth, fell into a panic.
He fought hard against the United States, but later declared surrender.
I have seen the same process and results in the future.
If there is no special technology that can be combined with IT technology, everything ended in fantasy.
There was an absolute need for special technology that even the United States would fear.
It started with magic and a hammer, but the end was unknown.
Some might say it’s bullshit, but I had a different opinion.
The difference between small and large is ultimately the difference between thinking vessels.
The blacksmith raised the hammer.
Basic training using mana stones.
Inside, the secrets of magic and spirits also breathed.
Click.
The magic stone was inserted into the upper part of the handle of the sword.
Once sealed, the Mana Stone had to be destroyed before it could be taken out.
“I’ll fuck you up!”
pah ah
Magical power emanated from the blacksmith’s hammer.
I swallowed my magic for this day.
He also infused magic into the handle of the sword he held with his left hand.
A magic master could only become a person who handles magic.
If you can’t use magic, you’re just an ordinary blacksmith.
However, artisans who could use magical powers received great treatment.
On the other hand, it was not easy for someone who could use magic to become a blacksmith.
Instead, becoming a knight or high-ranking mercenary wizard, the measure of success, was easier than expected.
It was not an easy choice to shake off that path and become a blacksmith rather than a nobleman.
However, I am a young Korean man who does not care about the nobles of his profession.
“I will destroy it properly!”
He raised his poison.
The path to becoming a magician can end with only the magic stone flying if you make a mistake.
“Fire Dragon~.”
Summoned the fire spirit.
A fire lizard appeared with a red light.
“Run it~. Roaring!”
I put the fire dragon into the brazier.
A fire spirit who knows my will, swallows mana, and starts burning in earnest.
In an instant, the brazier was heated with raging fire.
Chee hee hee hee.
The blade heated up red in an instant.
The heat was transmitted to the handle.
Aaaaang! Aaaaang!
Power went into hammering.
With the fire spirit affinity, the hot energy of the sword was assimilated.
“!!!”
The mana flowed straight through the sword.
My magic and the magic from the magic stone were mixed and absorbed into the sword.
The process of becoming one body.
Only after this essential process is completed, the mana stone will settle into the sword.
Magical power is mixed into the molecules of the sword.
Wow!
It was a magical power fusion phenomenon, which is an essential process for magical weapon production.
The disparate magical iron and the magical power of the magic stone had to be mixed together.
If this process were easy, dogs or cows would have become magicians.
Orc blacksmiths also made magical weapons through the same process.
I felt respect.
Chee hee hee hee hee hee hee!
Beads of sweat hit the sword and turned into smoke.
The blade of the sword turned red under the influence of magical power and then heated up to milky light again.
They are still in check and not completely mixed.
The skills of the Orc blacksmiths were thought to be great.
Both magical power and physical ability were required.
Kaaang! Kaaang!
A sledgehammer that strikes a sword so that mana is evenly mixed.
These guys have to be right to come to their senses.
At some point, I could see the magical power of the mana stone and the sword slowly mixing.
“Oh oh!”
Brilliant magic power emanated from the sword body in earnest.
Caang!
The final hammering stopped.
Like a shedding snake, the impurities of the excellent black sword fell off by magic.
“???”
I watched the process happily and sensed something strange.
“Huh!!!”
Couldn’t stop.
Like when absorbing the mana stone, the sword did not come off from his hand.
Arbitrarily, the sword was absorbing mana like a living creature.
Even if it was fast, it was too fast.
Weeing weeing!
The milky color evolved into a bloody color.
As if it was not a magic sword, but a magic sword, I aimed at my basic vitality.
The red sword immediately began to buzz.
Damn it.
Red veins were clearly engraved on the sword body in the vortex of unstoppable magical power.
A sword that runs amok.
I blew more mana with all my might.
Another unseen duel!
I struggled to control the rampaging magic power.
However, the magical sword vibrates more and more violently and its magic is about to explode.
Even the dragon breathing method was useless.
“!!!”
Her hair stood on end like a knife blade.
If the sword exploded like this, it was obvious that my body would be slaughtered in fragments filled with magical power.
The blade, with its veins clearly visible, began to crack as if it were about to explode.
Somebody please help me!!!
Confused, I desperately asked anyone for help.
As expected, there were no human beings around.
It was a state of absolute no-one to trespass near the smithy.
Pajijig Weiying Weiying.
As the sword cracked in earnest, the blade trembled like mad.
A surge of magical power that the sword could not handle.
I tightly closed my eyes.
A spectacular life in another world that always defies expectations.
I was in a position to say goodbye unexpectedly and without rumors.
Whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
“???”
Then, suddenly, I felt a tremendous heat from the handle.
I hurriedly opened my tightly closed eyes.
