State of the Art (1)

It was a different day than usual.

Blacksmiths working in the workshop, merchants selling things on the street, and many others flocked to the same place at once.

The reason was none other than the news of Roman Dmitry's work.

Upon hearing the news that Roman Dmitry was making swords publicly, the people of Dmitry had no choice but to show interest.

1 year ago from now.

The Marquis Valentino once unveiled his collection.

At that time, the experts who dealt with the sword were brought together, and the evaluation of the day became an issue for people.

"I can see why the Marquis Valentino said that the future of the sword depends on Roman Dmitry. Although blaze is a sword made in the early days, it has the ability to crush all swords that are currently called great swords on the market. In addition to the strength and sharpness of an iron weapon, the ability to absorb mana is truly overwhelming. How did you get a bid for such a weapon for only 1200 gold? In a nutshell, if it comes out on the market now, it is a weapon that should receive at least twice the value, excluding the name value."

It was truly commendable.

In the event that recognized the high-profile experts at once, people showed interest in Roman Dmitry's production skills.

In fact, Roman Dmitry's weapons were not a matter to be judged solely on quality.

His position as the eldest son of the Dmitry family, famous for its symbolism and iron weaponry, which was created by a swordsman who will lead a new era.

If the minimum value of quality is more than twice the auction price, not to mention scarcity.

and.

There was one more issue that people might be interested in with the keywords Roman Dmitry and the sword.

The source of the rumor was Dmitry's servants.

"What kind of work does the master sergeant do in the workshop? If you think about it common sense, no matter how much fire you deal with, it doesn't make sense to have scorched marks on the walls and ceiling. But when Master Roman finishes his work, there are always traces of the entire workshop being burned."

"I have seen it too! In the meantime, while cleaning up various workshops, there has never been a single case of leaving a trace like Master Roman. As you said, it is clear that it would be impossible without the entire workshop being burned."

There were very few people who witnessed the working environment firsthand.

Most of them did not know how to work, but the words of the servants who were cleaning up the workshop after the work strongly stimulated people's curiosity.

Think about it. In an environment brimming with flames, how did you manage to overcome the heat?

As the Marquis of Valentino, who is called a collector of greed, and the perfection that experts praised, even the testimony of servants was added, interest was bound to explode.

like that.

With many people watching, Roman Dmitry finally entered the workshop.

* * *

It was an open environment.

The door to the workshop was wide open, and it was a structure that could sufficiently check the inside situation from the outside.

Hwareuk.

lit a fire in the fireplace.

The work was organized by raising the heat sufficiently, and after a while, I started to tap the steel in the hot space.

It looked familiar to people.

It was not common to see the muscles wriggling intensely without protective gear, but it was still nothing special.

That was then.

Wrath!

gurgling rumbling.

"Wow."

"Ugh."

People exclaimed in admiration.

The flames raging from the violent hammering seemed to flow in all directions as if they were devouring Roman Dmitry. It was as rumored.

Roman Dmitry did not feel the heat even in the flames.

The hammering continued despite being surrounded by flames, and silence beyond admiration captivated the people.

Gradually.

got into work.

Roman Dmitry focused on the essence of this work, forgetting people's gaze.

'Alexander is a being based on the power of the Demon Realm. If we were to wage a war with the demon realm, humans would have to deal with beings that use such power. In order to have a minimal foundation against them, you need the power to break down the magic of darkness.'

divine weapon.

That was the solution.

Dark magic is not common.

In many cases, simply material blows alone cannot destroy existence, so it had to be accompanied by the divine power to destroy the essence itself.

For that reason, he ordered the blacksmiths to create sacred weapons.

The mass supply of sacred weapons was the first step in preparing for war against the demon realm.

gurgling rumbling.

lost in memory

What was Alexander's power and what method was appropriate to destroy it.

constantly reiterated.

From the point of view of the observers, it was an act of repeatedly tapping steel, but Roman Dmitry's agony melted in every action.

It was truly a state of trance.

His head fluttered in the blazing flames, his body reddened, but his hammering was constant and uninterrupted.

'I will not add divine power to a weapon.'

during work.

Only by pouring holy water can you create a truly divine weapon.

However, what Roman Dmitry was trying to produce was merely an example of a solution for blacksmiths, and he did not intend to fit into the frame of divine power. Hendrick is a great blacksmith.

If Roman Dmitry makes a weapon against dark magic in his own way, the process and results alone will suffice to find the answer.

gurgling rumbling.

The fire intensified.

The concept of time is forgotten.

Judging that he was fully prepared, Roman Dmitry began to breathe the energy of destruction in earnest.

'Even in Moorim, there were beings who used unknown powers like Alexander. What the past and present lives have in common is that no matter where the source of power comes from, the foundation that sustains its existence must exist. If it was completely annihilated with the energy of destruction, even beings like Alexander would never be able to withstand it.'

Quang!

gurgling rumbling.

The fire flew out in all directions.

The fire, which had received the energy of destruction, resisted violently, and vomited so much heat that it could be felt even outside the workshop.

Roman Dmitry held the flames strong.

The flames that exploded every time the steel was struck burned the entire workshop, but Roman Dmitry, surrounded by flames, did not stop hammering.

Kaang!

Kaang, Kaang!

It was a great sight.

in the blazing fire.

Roman Dmitry did not take a single step back, and continued the fight with himself, the end of which was unknown.

An hour ago, Kairos.

When Dmitry was in a riot, the Marquis of Valentino was soothing his broken heart in the mansion of Kairos.

"… … If I hadn't expected it, it wouldn't have been a disappointment."

Battle for Dmitry.

The Marquis of Valentino, who participated in the fierce battle at the invitation of Madame Tu Susan, met Susan, who said sorry with a despairing face.

It's not that I don't understand.

Madame Tudles and Edwin Hector from each country put up strong candidates, and even though he was called Cairo's richest man, the odds were low.

The problem was that he had already expected it.

As the Marquis of Valentino, who was able to let his imagination run wild, the sense of loss in his dream that had been shattered was great.

How sad is this?

Roman Dmitry, who loves his family terribly, would take care of himself as an in-law, and if so, he worked hard on the miraculous happiness circuit that he could secretly request another sword, but it ended in a vain delusion.

My mind was empty.

The Marquis of Valentino, who was struggling with a sense of loss, had a place to look for whenever this happened.

"Hey, it's always beautiful to look at."

Your own treasure trove.

It was just looking through the collection.

Blaze and a third no-name.

As I gazed at Roman Dmitry's beautiful creations, I felt a deep sense of loss melt away.

Each time was a meaningful time for the Marquis of Valentino.

The blaze and the third no-name were meticulously cleaned to avoid any dust, and at every moment I admired the thought that this work of art belonged to me.

as much as this time.

It was completely my own time.

No matter what problems we faced, once we looked at the collection, we were able to put our minds to it and start over.

However.

smart.

"Marquis, may I come in?"

A servant's voice was heard outside the door.

For a moment, I was annoyed.

It is an unwritten rule of the Valentino family that, while you are in the treasury, never disturb the sky even if the sky falls, how dare a servant who has worked in Valentino for a long time dare to break it.

In my heart, I wanted to punish them right away.

But, knowing that there was a reason for knocking on the door of the treasury even though he knew the unwritten rules, Marquis Valentino said, suppressing his boiling anger.

"come in."

"sorry. I knew I shouldn't be disturbed, but I felt compelled to report this."

It was strange.

Did you know that you knocked on the door?

At that moment, looking at him with suspicious eyes, the servant uttered a remark that shocked the Marquis of Valentino.

"I have heard information that His Majesty Roman Dmitry is publicly making swords. If you miss this time, you don't know when an opportunity like this will come again, so I dared to interrupt the time of Marquis Valentino."

* * *

Servant's Punishment?

There was no such thing.

The Marquis Valentino, who gave a big reward to the servant who made the decision, rushed to the Warp Gate.

'You just found out about this!'

Tears welled up.

Make sure you reading at koreanmtl . online

No one else, Roman Dmitry.

Arguably, the person who I think is the best craftsman on the continent is publicly working on it, but I was impatient at the thought that I might miss the scene.

That was impossible.

If such a tragic thing happens, nothing will be able to soothe his empty heart this time.

hastened to walk

He had to go to Dmitry as quickly as possible, but, cruelly, God did not recognize his heart.

"I'm sorry, but you have to wait your turn."

"Damn it!"

warp gate.

It takes time to use magic artifacts.

Due to the people waiting for their turn first, the Marquis of Valentino was told that he would have to wait at least four hours, and from then on he started to get madly anxious.

The work of making a sword does not end in a day or two.

Obviously it will take at least ten days or more, but the Marquis Valentino wanted to capture all the sights from the beginning to the end.

But it's 4 hours.

It felt like the sky was falling.

Considering the waiting time and travel time, this was truly a tear in the heart of the Marquis of Valentino.

Did you wait a minute?

The Marquis Valentino, who couldn't stand it in the end, broke through the line and immediately spoke to the next person.

Fortunately, the opponent was a familiar face.

"Count Pettison! I have a really urgent business, can you give me your turn? If you are considerate of my circumstances, I will definitely repay you for this work later."

The reward of the Marquis of Valentino.

It was not a story to be told.

Count Pettison would have been willing to yield his turn normally, but this time around, it was not possible.

"I'm sorry, but we have an important contract. Don't you know Marquis Valentino well? that keeping the time of the promise is the basis of trust. I'd rather ask the next person instead of me... … ."

"100 gold."

"Yes?"

"Is it not enough? Then 200 gold."

eyes widened

I still haven't figured it out in my mind.

It was simply that he would give a large amount of money for giving up his seat, but there was a circumstance that he could not give up this time.

However.

"500 gold. Isn't that enough?"

"I will gladly yield to you, Marquis Valentino."

To refuse successive requests, 500 gold was too large an amount.

* * *

Spend 500 gold.

Excessive.

When the Blaze was bid for 1200 gold, there was even material value left, but this time, he used a huge amount to simply give up his place.

Even for a wealthy man like the Marquis of Valentino, it was an amount that could not be ignored, but he had a different thought circuit from the general people in the first place.

'This is not a mere concession of seats, it's about buying memories and experiences that I really cherish.'

even one minute and one second.

I wanted to quickly capture the image of Roman Dmitry.

Even if it is an intangible value that leaves nothing behind, the reason the Marquis Valentino is collecting so much money is to act as he pleases in a situation like this.

Thanks to this, I was able to use the warp gate right away.

The Marquis Valentino, who had moved to Dmitry in an instant, hurried to the place where Roman Dmitry was working.

thump thump.

My heart raced.

The blood was boiling like crazy.

The Marquis Valentino, who finally arrived at the scene, pushed through the obstacles.

Those who pre-occupied seats.

Defeating them was not easy.

shout out to some.

For some, physical means.

Some even offered money.

Only after the Marquis Valentino's face was drenched with sweat was he able to occupy a place where the workshop was visible.

Hwareuk.

gurgling gurgling.

blazing fire.

Roman Dmitry is engulfed in flames.

in front of you.

"… … iced coffee."

The moment that the Marquis Valentino had only imagined was being reproduced as it was.
