It took him several hours to finish the entire process of manufacturing the dagger he was now holding in his hand.
It could have taken much less but considering his current proficiency in the three auxiliary techniques he had used, it was already a good feat.
Storing away the smithy, beakers, and other equipment that belonged to him, Jason was done after a short while before he approached the three female Variants.
They looked at him with more interest than before, and even the ice-cold Aeus' expression had changed a little bit.
Earlier, she didn't really believe his words, thinking that he was just spewing nonsense to not get punished, but that had changed now.
Despite being in his early 20s or younger, he was already able to manufacture a late Lique rank weapon.
This was interesting, and even more so the joy that radiated from the young man was infectious. He had handed the weapon manufactured out of an extremely complex ore as the main ingredient for the dagger's blade and fire elemental crystals for the inscription solution.
Handing the dagger over to the ice-cold-looking Aeus because she was standing in the center of the three Variants, Jason smiled lightly before he relaxed his muscles.
Inspecting the weapon, it was extremely hard to describe whether the blacksmith did an excellent job, or if it was a failure.
Just by looking at Jason's entire production process, the three female Variants were not sure if Jason was simply fortunate to have produced something that worked.
Since the beginning, the three women had noticed that the materials Jason used to concoct the inscription solution and to forge the blade, were something he shouldn't even have heard of, let alone possess them.
The ingredients utilised were not exactly rare, but uncommon to use, even more so as clumsily as Jason did.
However, that was not all because Jason seemed to be proficient in the forging process, yet it looked as if he was tipsy because the techniques he had exerted were not utilized professionally.
Rather, it looked like Jason was an amateur in using the techniques he had used to prove that he was not an intruder but a blacksmith, alchemist, and inscriber at once.
The female human found this sight quite funny to look at during the previous few hours, but the final result astonished her a little bit. It was difficult to expect someone, who used his auxiliary techniques clumsily enough to look like he was tipsy, to produce a good weapon.
Nevertheless, in the end, everything looked fine and seemingly like Jason had planned to forge the dagger in this way.
Because of that, the female human and Devir shook their heads, while the ice-cold looking Aeus replied,
"Follow us, we will bring you to someone. She will often be called 'Crazy woman', but you shouldn't attempt the same, at least, not if you want to prevent being tortured."
Jason was not sure why he was brought somewhere else again, he just wanted to avoid being punished, and leave as quickly as possible.
Sighing inwardly, Jason got the feeling that this was not as easy as he assumed.
As such, he could only nod his head, before they left the building and flew through the air once again.
The dagger Jason had manufactured was returned to him, and not even a minute seemed to have passed before they reached the center of the stone wall encircled territory.
There, he could see one of the largest buildings of the entire city, and it was built out of materials, whose ranking Jason was unable to tell.
Even with his Emperor Eyes, it was extremely difficult to evaluate the entire situation properly.
However, instead of making him worry, Jason's eyes gleamed brightly because he saw the energy currents of the strongest being he had ever seen in his entire life.
It was a being following the path of Maest, but her mana core was extremely weird. Jason was not even able to see everything properly, because the mana currents surrounding the being, he presumed to be the City Lord, obscured his vision.
This was exciting because the energy currents enveloped almost the entire building, without the being actively moving around.
What Jason perceived was the calm state of the City Lord!
Excitement coursed through him, causing goosebumps to appear all over his skin that could be seen by the three female Variants.
"Is that your first time sensing the might of a powerhouse at the Specta stage?"
It was the female human who asked this in a seemingly nonchalant way, however, Jason's answer astonished them a little bit.
"That too, yes, but today is also the first time I was able to sense the energy fluctuations of someone at the Ascendion stage, up close...and there were directly three strong Variants at that!"
Smiling brightly, he didn't even care about holding back the truth which he had exposed without batting an eyelid.
In his opinion, it was nothing special, but that was not the case for the others.
"You said that you just arrived in Lanro today, right? Where do you come from then? Miar, Inman, or Oeri?"
The cold-looking Aeus asked this question while staring in a visibly confused way at Jason.
She had trouble wrapping her head around the fact that someone who seemed pretty talented in both cultivation and the auxiliary occupation, had never seen someone from the Ascendion stage up close.
However, that was the truth, because seeing an Ascendion stage from several kilometers away was not exactly close.
Thus, he smiled lightly as he replied,
"I don't come from Manyr, I was pulled inside a world bridge some time ago, and Lanro is the first city I've entered!"
It wasn't special to come from a world bridge, or at least Jason hoped so because he had already seen a total of three world bridges since he had emerged on Manyr.
As such, there shouldn't be a problem exposing his situation, making it clear that he was not a spy and that he had simply no idea that he'd entered the City Lord's abode.
However, the three Variants remained silent after hearing what Jason had said, only to land in front of one of the smaller buildings that were directly connected to the main manor.
Through his Emperor Eyes, Jason was able to tell that the building he was told to enter had all kinds of tools, materials, and devices to forge, concoct, and inscribe runes with.
With that information, he could determine that the Crazy woman, the cold-looking Aeus had been talking about, was someone proficient in an auxiliary occupation.
'Is this woman interested in me because of the inscription solution I produced?... If she asks how I produced the solution, I shouldn't tell her that I improvised!'
Chuckling to himself that his ingenious idea of improvisation had met a stroke of luck, Jason was still not sure if he should believe that it had truly worked.
"We will leave you for now. After we discuss your punishment with the captain of our unit, we will return."
With that being said, the three simply ignored him only to fly towards the main building.
'They really don't care about what I do, at all? Wow…'
"Calling someone else crazy, while behaving exactly the same way...just why did I have to enter this abode full of crazy women?"
