Chapter 1192 Doing What Should've Been Done

Although he initially planned on getting some rest before opening up shop, Valyr decided to postpone his rest to later in the day, considering that he still had enough energy to move about for the entire day.

Other than that, with him establishing a partnership with Juno, he wanted to improve his relationship with the man to a certain extent. After all, the man in front of him would be the one managing his shop while he was away.

If anything, having another person take care of shop while he was away was the main reason why he accepted Juno's request of learning from him. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Though he was more than certain that the players came to his shop in order to forge connections with him, having his shop still be open without him being there added a bit of grandeur to his identity.

'Killing two birds with one stone, if I do say so myself,' thought Valyr as he inwardly chuckled at the conclusion he came up with earlier.

Briefly shaking his head after that, Valyr then led Juno into his shop, thinking that the best way to show his sincerity in their partnership was to fulfill his side of the bargain.

With that, it went without saying that the two of them headed directly to the workshop portion of the building, the layout of which left Juno at a slight loss for words.

Looking at the various forging tools Valyr used whenever he forged an item, Juno felt a slight greed to grab the items for himself after realizing they were of a far higher quality than the tools he used in his smithy.

Of course, the man knowingly restrained himself, reminding himself that the man he was learning from was someone who'd reached a higher realm of blacksmithing than him.

And thus, with an eager spirit and an open mind, the man spent the next few hours with Valyr, attentively listening to everything the latter had to say about the world of blacksmithing.

Naturally, as blacksmithing was mostly practical and empirical in nature, Valyr had him forge a couple of items here and there to gauge how far he was in the path of blacksmithing.

Though, because of that, Juno was eventually made to realize that although he had the skills and knowhow of the blacksmith, his foundation as a blacksmith was a bit lacking in comparison.

Deciding to focus on shoring up the man's weaknesses, Valyr earnestly taught Juno all he'd learned from blacksmithing in both of his lives, even going so far as to forge a new anvil and forging hammer for the man.

"Now that I think about it, I should've made the building with a sleeping quarters in mind."

Pushing the thought that popped up in his mind at the back of his head, Valyr soon dozed off into the land of sleep, feeling all of the exhaustion he'd built up over the past few days gradually disappear.

...

Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!

"...And I suppose that's enough to replenish stock for today." Finishing up the last piece of equipment he planned on selling for today, Valyr let out a faint sigh of relief as he looked at the man that was watching him work this whole time.

Slightly grinning, he then asked him, "I suppose you learned a thing or two from that?"

"I think?" Juno let out a slight chuckle, scratching his cheek in uncertainty. "Anyways, you said you're gonna head out again?"

"I am." Valyr nodded, storing all of his forging tools back into his spatial bracelet. "Which is why I made all of these items beforehand."

"Would it take you as long as before for you to come back?" asked Juno to make sure, considering that there was a possibility for the previous incident to happen again.

"It won't take me that long." Of course, Valyr assured him otherwise. "Best case scenario, I return within the day. Worst case scenario, I return the next day."

At those words, Juno could only let out a slight sigh. "You're really making use of this partnership to its full potential."

"As if you're not," replied Valyr with a chuckle, beginning to head out of the shop soon after. "Keep an eye on the shop for me, will you?"

"I will." Juno nodded.

"Safe travels.
