Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 2004: The Hammer -Part 3

"Oh come on!" Do not give up that easily." Jin wanted to exploit the hammer's so called malice energy to get more benefits from the System. He knew that the hammer was able to do more but seeing that he was giving up this early might have reasons to it as well.

Jin was not dumb when he saw the malice energy turning into physical form and subsequently saw the hammer focusing all the energy towards Jin instead. It was a little bit of a shocker for Jin at the start but it was nothing he could not handle at the current state that he was in.

Yet at the same time, Jin could see that the Hammer was not giving its all, fearing that Jin was not able to handle the pressure and inadvertently caused an accidental explosion that would injure the rest. At the root of it all, the hammer was still kind.

So, the dungeon supplier decided that if he could not press the hammer into provocation once more, he would just leave it be. And that was what he did as the Hammer sighed and refused to do it again.

"I am assuming with this trial completed, I am considered worthy to pick you up? Mr Loaned?"

"Oh, so we are going to give each other nicknames now eh?" The Hammer said and Jin merely shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, if you gave me Mr Discarded, I thought I would just follow suit. Besides, to be called Discarded is not a bad name after all considering how they really just throw me into this particular world without consenting me. I know it's a trial but to think that they could throw me around like nobody's business, I guessed I would rise up to the challenge and be a King at that as well.

"Heh, The Discarded King rather than the Moon King." The Hammer scoffed and Jin realised this was the best time to get information from him about the Moon King.

"You dealt with him, right? Has he used you before or did he merely just put you here as a trophy?" Jin asked as he attempted to pull him up instead of holding. There was practically no weight at all.

"Meh, he just put me as a trophy. Although I did see him in battle with my master. He did not do much, to be honest, most of the heavy lifting was done by his knights and soldiers. That Moon King guy though, he did cast a lot of debuffs on my master -"

"To be honest, since he already ditched you here, you should just call him your ex master. And though I have some inkling who your master might be, mind tell me who is that ex master you had?"

"What's your guess?" The Hammer asked and Jin immediately blurted out Thor's name considering there was a lightning symbol engraved onto it. "Hahaha. I guess I cannot fault you if you consider that as a clue. But sadly, no. I am not Thor's loaned hammer at all."

"Oh. erm ohhhh..." Jin felt disappointed in a flash and the Hammer felt that he had lost all respect for the upcoming 'Discarded King'. "Then I do not need you anymore." He teased a little and the Hammer was like a 'tsundere', a person who played hard to get but actually soft on the inside decided to ask Jin not to leave him.

"I am a loaned weapon to Magni, Thor's son."

"Oh. Hmmmm..." Jin thought about it for a while and later acknowledged that despite being a loaned weapon, he was still a weapon that had been wielded by someone rather significant within the Norse Mythology. "But to be honest, I am not well versed in using a hammer. The most I can do with a hammer is to ...I dunno, maybe knock on some nails?

Perhaps, if I can contract you to hammer in some nails for me?"

"At least use me to create stuff like smithing or something..." The loaned hammer said.

"Well, if you can create stuff from raw materials into something tangible, I will take you in in a heartbeat." Jin smiled with a thumbs up.

"Ha ha. Very Funny. If that is my special ability, I would not be rotting here for 2000 over years." The hammer replied. "An entire army of celestials would come to this world just to pick me up."

"Don't they have hammers that create stuff in the Celestial planes?" Jin asked, thinking that what the loaned weapon said was total bullshit. Delve into stories on m-v-l-e-mpyr

"If I am not mistaken, there's actually a bunch of those hammers but they were heavily guarded." The loaned hammer remarked.

"So, that's why you think that an entire army will come to pick you?" Jin stared at it with a sarcastic look.

"Fine, I am just exaggerating. But I do believe I can do some smithing..."

"I doubt a war hammer can do smithing..."

"Why you...bloody rascal. I am at least 2000 years old do you have some respect-"

"Why should I respect a 2000 year old slacker?" Jin teased once more and he could feel the malice energy flowing through the hammer and into him.

That was when the System suddenly popped up a window. "By challenging the ego of a warhammer to do out of its specifications is something no one had done before. The prideful ego of the warhammer had also been challenged and you had masterfully tamed it to your bidding. Special Class unlocked: War Smith (Rank F)."

"What." The both of them saw the window not knowing what had actually happened.

"Wait, you can see the message?" Jin asked and the Hammer 'nodded' its head.

"War Smith Special Ability unlocked: Improvised Smithing (Rank F): Requires twice the raw material but is able to create the item that the War Smith had in mind. Idealised thoughts might not necessarily match the end product. Having a design beforehand may potentially reduce the raw materials or increase an item's rating."

"Ehhh???" Jin and the Hammer saw and could not believe their eyes when they read the text together.

"System is detecting that the current user had an existing class before acquiring this special class. Analysing...."

"Analysis complete. Existing Class: Dungeon Supplier Rank S-. Class' special ability to be unlocked for existing class: Dungeon Summoning."

"What's a dungeon supplier? Are you like a dungeon lord of some sort?" The hammer asked.

"It's hard to explain without context but erm...Kind of?" Jin was looking at the Dungeon Summoning skill and was astonished by what it could do.

"Summon worlds and planes of this particular universe and only this particular universe up to Rank S-. Usage and Cooldown: Summons are not limited unless the summoned is of the maximum rank, Once the maximum rank dungeon has been summoned, the cooldown would be 24 hours. If the enemy is unable to clear your dungeon in a stipulated time, the dungeon will proceed to become a Dungeon Calamity.

All monsters that previously resided in that dungeon will emerge at the very least twice the amount.

Note: Those monsters are not under the User's control but the User can forcibly close the dungeon unless it's a Dungeon Calamity." The System stated and Jin could already think of ways to use it, to exploit it but before those ideas could be digested internally in his brain, the System let out another notification.

"Congratulations! The System had found compatibility between War Smith and Dungeon Supplier. A Synchronised Class Ability had been unlocked: Dungeon Salvaging. Once a day, the dead monsters or participants' corpses and items will be salvaged from all the dungeons. If all the materials used were from dungeons for Improvised Smithing, Improvised Smithing will temporarily increase one rank. Ie.

Rank F to Rank F+."

"Wow...this is an OP skill." "What's more OP is that this is the first time I see a King's candidate having a S- ability right from the bad. Most of the classes that I saw were Salary Worker and Students or ehh NEET? Most were Rank F- and they got a second class because of what they do later... I think.

Because very few that survived me ever come back to try to carry me up." The hammer said and Jin wondered how many of those who were reported missing had been thrown in such situations. No wonder there was little to be said when Jin's original System threw him under the bus for this.

"Is that why the System, seeing how people had failed for 2000 years, decided to bestow me with a special class?" Jin asked and the Hammer could only reply with a single 'perhaps'.

"All I know is the ranks can be grinded. I remembered a guy had NEET Rank A when that guy when I first met him, he was merely NEET Rank F-, so yeah, if you can get your Improvising Smithing to a higher rank, the ability might change a little."

"Oh thank you, Mr Loaned Warhammer. Your advice is well appreciated," Jin teased him once more.

"Gah. Can't you select a better nickname?"

"Huh... What about the Variable Impact Adjustment Tool? The Kinetic Calibrator? or the Universal Fitting Device?" Jin remembered his friends and him was giving terrible engineering names to the tools. After all, he had attended engineering previously.

"I have no fucking idea what you just said." The hammer replied coldly.

"What about Gentle Persuasion?" Jin thought about it and the hammer chuckled.

"While I like that nickname, don't you think it's hard on you to call me that? Gentle Persuasion it's hammering time!" The hammer exclaimed.

"Then forget it, I will just call you the Hammer. Make things so much simpler." Jin gave up on that aspect just as how the hammer gave up on him.

"... Are you serious?" The Hammer questioned how terrible Jin was in giving good proper names.
