[Ascended Wind Wolf Chestplate] (Level 40)

Rarity: Rare+

Foundation Tier: None

Defense: 189 - 315

Forge Quality: Transcendent

Originally part of an armor set commonly produced by those from the Blacksmith Guild for classes specializing in speed, this piece of armor has broken the inherent limits of the original armor set, being forged by a blacksmith that has reached the origin of blacksmithing.

Not only has its properties broken through the armor set's inherent limits, the blacksmith that forged it had also taken into consideration its appearance, making it a piece of armor that even noble families would vie for just to claim for themselves.

Nevertheless, the Wind Wolf Armor set is still a basic armor set at its core.

However, with the right materials and the right person managing it, there might be the possibility for it to show its true colors.

<Innate Skill 1: Child of the Wind - Increases the user's AGI and DEX by 8%. Also increases the user's movement and attack speed by 8%. Only applies when the full armor set is equipped.>

<Innate Skill 2: Wind Wolf's Spirit - Allows the user to form a connection with a Wind Wolf, imbuing themselves with their powers as their STR, AGI, and DEX are increased by 10% for 5 minutes. Can be overcharged to improve its effects by a further 50%. Cost: 5,000 MP. Cooldown: 15 minutes.>

<Ascended Wind Wolf Set | 1/6>

- 2 pieces: AGI and DEX +10

- 3 pieces: HP +800 and MP +400

Remarks: You've breathed new life into this piece of armor, giving it the platform necessary for it to reach greater heights.

Of course, though most of Valyr's attention was preoccupied by forging the next piece of armor making up the set, a portion of the young man's mind still lingered on the information he'd obtained regarding the chestplate he forged.

From the defense the chestplate gave, to the various skills and set effects that the armor had, all of it was an improvement over the Wind Wolf Armor blueprint he'd gotten.

Putting on the few finishing touches on the final piece making up the improved Wind Wolf Armor set, Valyr eventually beamed a grin as he'd obtained a notification from the system that he was finally done with production.

Seeing that the system had classified the final piece as a part of the Ascended Wind Wolf Armor set he'd inadvertently created, the young man inwardly let out a sigh of relief as he decided to take a break for the meantime.

Placing the Hammer of Beginnings back into his spatial bracelet, Valyr began to do a bit of stretching, which attracted the attention of the man accompanying him within the workshop. "You're finally... done?" asked Tristan as he stood up, letting out a yawn as he felt a wave of sleepiness wash over him.

"Yeah." Valyr nodded at the question, only to notice the extreme weariness that was on Tristan's face. "You know, you don't have to force yourself to stay up with me. You should really get some rest, especially since we're about to face the monster tide soon." Letting out a long yawn in response, Tristan made his way to the finished set of improved Wind Wolf Armor before activating his identification skills on them. "I know. Let me just take

a look at the armor you created."

"Hmm?"

Though the man felt like heading to bed any time now, Tristan's sleepiness was briefly washed away as he checked the stats of the armor pieces Valyr forged, feeling them to be considerably different from the armor set that was written down on the blueprints he read. However, as he was only looking at them to satiate his curiosity, the man did not delve too deep into it, placing the armor pieces back where they originally were before deciding to bid farewell to the young man.

"I'll see you tomorrow, probably," said Tristan, letting out another yawn as Valyr waved farewell back. "You should also get some rest before the monster tide comes."

"I'll keep that in mind," replied Valyr, only returning his gaze to the workshop before him after Tristan's silhouette had fully disappeared from his sight.

"Alright. Onto the second phase."

Feeling a bit hungry after pushing both physical and mental faculties to their utmost limits, Valyr made use of his authority within the Blacksmith Guild to have a staff member deliver a

meal to him.

Receiving the meal he requested not even a few minutes later, the young man wolfed down

every single bit of it, even going so far as to pop a mana potion from his spatial bracelet to

bring himself back to peak condition.

Feeling like he was ready to face off against a ton of monsters once more, Valyr brought out the Hammer of Beginnings from his spatial bracelet before placing one of the pieces making up the Ascended Wind Wolf Armor set on the anvil.

"Considering that it's the core of the entire set, I suppose it's only right that I use [Breath of Beginnings] on the chestplate," said Valyr to himself as he thought out loud. "On the other hand, I'll use [Breath of Wind] on the other remaining pieces."

"Now that I think about it, I should really take the time to forge Legendary grade items for the remaining elements," continued the young man, rubbing his chin for a bit. "Not only would I complete some of my prerequisite quests by doing so, I'd also upgrade my Hammer of Beginnings fully to Legendary grade."

"So far, I've only forged the Supreme Blade of Primeval Flames, which improved [Breath of Flame] to be as good as [Breath of Beginnings] in some aspects."

"Well, it's not like I'm in a rush." Continuing to think about the matter for a bit more, Valyr eventually decided to shelf those thoughts for later. "Then again, thinking about all of this does give me a few ideas."

"After all, it's not like I'm penalized to use True Wyvern Armor every time. There's nothing stopping me from using a certain set of armor for a certain combat style."

"Either way, I'll save all those for later."

"For now... [Breath of Beginnings]."
