MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith

Chapter 491 Forging Once More

?

Algerie Kingdom.

"Finally… I finally got my hands on a private workshop." Inwardly letting out a sigh of relief as the attendant working with him had confirmed his request, Valyr soon made his way through the hallways of the Blacksmith Guild, eventually finding himself in a corridor lined to the brim with similar-looking workshops.

After having finished his task back at Anadhar, Valyr did not hesitate to use the Blacksmith Guild's Teleportation Hall to teleport back, using his authority as a Legacy Core Member to get the teleportation circles started even if it was already nighttime.

By the time he had returned to the inn, it was already late in the night, with Wells already having fallen asleep. With that, he decided not to wake up the man as he ordered a light meal to satiate his hunger. 

Once he had eaten his fill, he then headed to his portion of the room and proceeded to fall asleep on his bed, recuperating the physical and mental energy he had expended in Anadhar.

After a few hours had passed and he had woken up, he then went through his daily routine and made his way to the Blacksmith Guild, telling himself that the day tomorrow was an important day. After all, it would be the first time he would meet the other candidates also participating in the Four Pillars' Inheritance.

"I should start forging some stuff instead of admiring this place." Recalling that Julian had stopped by earlier to inform him that he had something to tell him, Valyr quickly fired up the mana furnace near the back of the workshop, ordering a few sets of materials from the guild with the help of an attendant soon after.

Thanks to his position as a Legacy Core Member, the amount he paid to obtain the materials he asked for was significantly lower than it normally was, causing a content grin to appear on his face as he looked at the pile of materials he had gotten with the remaining money in his money pouch.

"As long as I make as much equipment out of these materials as possible and make sure that they're of decently high rarity and quality, I'll make more than what I spent to buy the materials to make them." With his money pouch now devoid of the money it used to hold, Valyr swiftly took out the Hammer of Beginnings from his spatial bracelet and began to forge equipment with great gusto.

"Hmm... weapons would probably sell more nowadays, considering that people would be preparing for the worst to happen regarding the outbreak." Pondering over what type of equipment he would forge, it did not take long for the young man to have an idea in mind, partitioning the amount he would use per equipment in the process to maximize his gains.

Nevertheless, with how eager he was to be forging once more, and how he already had tons of experience doing the same thing, the forging process had already begun long before he had clarified what he was going to do, chucking in a great number of materials into the furnace in preparation for what was to come next.

"Now that I think about it, I should have gotten some attributed materials to make elemental weapons." Deciding to familiarize himself with the mechanics of his forging hammer whilst he waited for the materials to get up to temperature, a thought popped up into the young man's head all of a sudden.

"Then again, the difference in stats between the two is negligible, even more so if I take the Hammer of Beginnings into consideration." Continuing to go through his thoughts in a mutter, Valyr eventually grabbed a couple of materials out of the furnace and placed it onto the anvil, seeing that they were ready for forging.

Raising his forging hammer up in the air, he then began to hammer the materials down, shaping it into the rough forms of the weapons he wished to create. "Huh. Now that I think about it, I still haven't taken a look at the title I got from the forging duel."

"Identify [Forger of Artifacts]."

Ding!

Trusting his muscle memory to take control over most of the forging process for the meantime, Valyr soon spared a bit of his attention towards the screen that appeared before him, intently reading through the contents written on it.

[Forger of Artifacts] (Title)I think you should take a look at

Rarity: Mythic

Countless blacksmiths have forged items and equipment that have been used by the masses for ages, while few among them have forged items and equipment that have been recognized by the masses for their superior quality.

However, compared to these people, only a select few have attained a level of forging that transcends normality, allowing them to forge items that would be recognized and revered by people throughout history, its properties unforgettable to those that have seen and wielded it. Though these items may have been called multiple names throughout history, there only exists one name that unites them all.

Artifacts.

As someone who has successfully forged an Artifact of their own, you have included yourself into the ranks of these legendary beings, your works now easily recognizable even to the youngest of humans.

Effects:

> Allows the title holder to gain an intrinsic understanding regarding the process of forging Artifacts

> Allows the title holder to gain a greater understanding of materials and items related to forging Artifacts

> Increase the title holder's compatibility with Artifacts

> Increases the base stat of any equipment forged by the title holder by 5% 

> Reduces the time it takes for the title holder to forge equipment by 15% 

> Allows the title holder to gain Planetary Reputation for any item forged or any Artifact forged above Epic grade (gained Planetary Reputation depends on feat and rarity achieved)

"Wait a second... so, if I'm getting this right, any equipment I forge from now on will be 10% better than it already is?" Slightly frowning as he tried to understand the effects of the title in detail, Valyr began to think out loud once more. "Does that mean that even if I put in minimum effort, my equipment would still be considered better than those made by other people?"

"Well… with all things considered, this is a good thing. Not only from the perspective of profit, but also from the perspective of my future plans." Briefly shrugging his shoulders as he ended his train of thought, the thought of the forging hammer's effects soon popped up into Valyr's mind, causing him to slightly shudder regarding its possibilities.

"Speaking of which, I should probably take a look at [Hunter's Tracking Eyes] as well, considering that I'm going to be using it while forging." Closing the screen that he just brought up, Valyr was about to command the system to bring up another screen in front of him...

Only to be interrupted once a familiar being had entered his workshop.

"Mind if I interrupt you for a bit?"
