"...Make sure to tell everyone what I just told you, okay?"

"Don't worry too much! I'll tell them as soon as possible! Thanks again, Valyr!"

Whoosh!

Watching the final group of players leave his shop, Valyr continued to smile as their silhouettes slowly disappeared from his field of vision.

"...Haah." Though, by the time they truly disappeared from the sight, the young man let out a long sigh, only now realizing how much he'd pushed himself throughout the night.

"Well, it's not all that bad," muttered Valyr to himself with a slight chuckle, returning to the shop as he decided to tidy up before closing. "I was able to add a lot more players to my friend list than I thought."

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Making use of the translucent arms he always used while forging, the young man swiftly got to work, noting down the items that were more popular with the players in preparation for his next opening.

"Gotta hurry up a bit so I can get a bit more rest." Then again, as he did not want to miss out on an opportunity to further cement himself as the go-to NPC for players when it came to items, Valyr decided that he'd open the shop again later in the afternoon.

With multiple thoughts related to the shop lingering in his mind, the young man slowly fell into a trance, allowing him to tidy up the shop far faster than he thought he would.

At the same time, he went over all of the items that were sold more than usual in his mind, reminding himself to forge and concoct at least a few of them before he opened the shop sometime later.

"In any case, this might turn out to be more lucrative than I thought." Satisfied with the overall condition of the shop, Valyr began to make his way out of the shop with a faint smile, briefly thinking back to the sales he made throughout the night.

Although the amount of money he earned was nowhere near the amount he used to earn back when he was still in Clossbay City, it was still more than enough for him to spend wantonly in the village if he wanted to do so.

'All in all, I earned about 15 gold coins from these players,' thought Valyr to himself, slightly grinning as he locked the door to the shop. 'Pretty good, considering most of them only bought a couple things from the shop.'

"Then again, with how the materials I use in the items are all free... I'm only making pure profit from this."

Formulating a rough idea of what he'd do after getting some rest, Valyr decided to make his way to the village's inn, hoping to rent a room there to get some rest for the night.

Though, just as he was about to start heading in the direction of the village's only inn, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him all of a sudden.

"Er... can I talk with you for a bit, Ylvar?"

"Hmm?" Raising his eyebrow in response to the question, Valyr remained silent as he looked at the man from head to toe.

If he were to come up with a person that resembled the man in front of him the closest, the young man felt that Julian was the closest to the man in terms of structure and appearance.

However, unlike Julian, the man's hair was a strong dark brown rather than the red-orange Julian had. He also sported a long and scruffy beard that made him faintly give off a fatherly vibe.

As for the man's eyes, Valyr thought that they resembled amethysts in a way, glistening with wisdom under the rays of the sun.

Taking into consideration the man's callused hands, as well as the weathered leather apron the man wore, it did not take long for Valyr to realize who he was talking to, causing a wry smile to appear on his face as he nodded.

"Is this about the situation with the smithy?" he asked in response, knowing that his shop redirected most, if not all of the attention away from the man's smithy.

Seeing the man nod in reply, Valyr felt his insides sink a bit, wondering if the man was mad at him.

"Well, there is a bit of that... but I have something else to talk about."

Though, as the man continued to talk, he slowly began to realize that...

The man was probably not as mad as he initially thought.

"Can I... can I learn blacksmithing from you?"
