Chapter 1176 Two Days of Work

1176 Two Days of Work

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Heading to the far end of the shop he built, Valyr let out a slight chuckle as he briefly thought back to the idea he had to partition his shop into two areas during the building process.

Thinking about how much time he'd be spending forging pieces of equipment for hours on end, the young man inwardly thanked his foresight as he went ahead and took out all of the forging equipment in his spatial bracelet.

Then, arranging them in a layout that resembled the private workshop he often used back at the Blacksmith Guild, he then went ahead and cast a barrier of energy around it to muffle the noises people would hear from outside.

"I should take the time to reinforce the walls for this part of the shop next time," muttered Valyr to himself as he thought out loud.

"But for the meantime... this will do."

Swoosh!

Taking out the Hammer of Beginnings from his spatial bracelet, Valyr went ahead and took out a couple of the piles of materials he'd requested from the Blacksmith Guild and placed them near the furnace.

After that, he went ahead and activated [Ephemeral Limbs of the First Blacksmith], deciding that the first few items he'd be forging were a few more extra anvils and forging hammers he could use during the forging process.

"Honestly, the Blacksmith Guild probably wouldn't have minded if I asked for some anvils and forging hammers," said Valyr to himself as he began to chuck items into the scorching hot furnace. "After all, Julian already knows why I'd need them."

"Then again..." Gazing at the Hammer of Beginnings he wielded, the young man let out a slight chuckle soon after. "I guess it's only right that I have to start matching the quality of items that I use."

Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!

Taking out some of the materials that had gotten up to temperature with the help of the translucent arms, Valyr swiftly activated both [Vision of the First Blacksmith] and [Hunter's Tracking Eyes] as he began molding the materials into his desired shapes.

An anvil and a forging hammer.

Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!

Having no reason to hold back on his forging speed anymore, it went without saying that it did not take long for Valyr to complete the two items, even going so far as to find the additional steps he used on other equipment unnecessary for them. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

After all, with how simple the production method was for both the anvil and the forging hammer, it would only take him around half an hour in total to forge both of them.

Yet, because of the skills he had active, that time had doubled.

However, once he took a look at the items he'd created with [Superior Analysis], such dismissive thoughts immediately disappeared from his mind without a trace. "On second thought, I'll keep forging those things this way."

Though the stats of the two items were nothing to write home about, the passive abilities the items gained thanks to Valyr's additional effort was more than enough to make it worth it.

Then again, that didn't mean the final rarity of the items weren't anything substantial either.

"This is..." Although they did not entirely understand what was going on, both William and the blacksmith could tell that they were currently looking at a style of blacksmithing that went far beyond what they commonly knew.

In fact, the blacksmith began to stand in place due to the sight that was in front of them, realizing at some point that he was witnessing the work of a blacksmith that had achieved a far higher level of blacksmithing than he did.

Because of that, all of the complaints he said earlier, as well as the ones he kept for himself, gradually vanished without a trace the more he watched Valyr forge items through his peculiar forging style.

Though, before the man could further continue to appreciate the effort Valyr put into his craft, William forced him to snap back to reality.

Looking back at him with a slight frown in response, the blacksmith soon let out a faint sigh as he understood the actions of their village leader.

"I suppose we've gotten our answer." Glancing at the young man before them forge items for just a bit more, both William and the blacksmith eventually left Valyr's shop, informing everyone in the village of what they saw while there.

As for Valyr, it was only after night fell did he stop to take a quick break, letting out a sigh of relief as he took a look at the pile of equipment he forged.

"If Julian were to see this, I'd bet he'd be surprised." Muttering these words to himself, Valyr let out a slight chuckle.

After that, he took out a stamina potion from his spatial bracelet before downing it in one gulp, immediately feeling part of the exhaustion that was building up in his body wash away because of it.

Returning his gaze towards the pile of equipment he made, Valyr went ahead and identified them with his identification skill, noting down that the overall rarity of the items ranged between Common to Uncommon grade.

Then again, thanks to the effects of the titles, skills, and items he used during the forging process, all of the equipment he forged had stats that were considerably higher than their classified grade, causing a slight grin to gradually appear on his face.

"I'm sure the players would flock this shop because of it."

Letting out a chuckle at the thought, Valyr eventually returned to forging more items, oblivious to what had transpired about half a day earlier.

...

Having finished forging all of the anvils and forging hammers he'd need to work at his full potential, it went without saying that Valyr pushed himself to his very limits, not wanting to waste the remaining time he had left before the update.

Spending almost all of his time on forging weapons and armors that would swarm the village once the update arrived, it went without saying that the young man was able to amass an amount of equipment that would leave any blacksmith at a loss for words.

Then again, considering that he spent almost an entire two days forging equipment that would only take him at most 15 minutes each to complete, it was pretty much a foregone conclusion that he'd be able to rack up an absurd amount by the time he was done.

Though, just as he thought that the final day was just him forging more equipment like before, he stopped in his tracks when a person appeared in his shop the moment the sun began to rise.

A person... he wasn't expecting to see at this time.

"Braum?"
