The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 52 - Iron Clever
“Bring us to Kobold who forged this sword!” My yelling.
“By soon, My Lord!.”
We also returned to the city. The bustling atmosphere of the city did not stop our footsteps. The goal is only one. That's to meet this blacksmith.
“Eric, if this Kobold is able to make Epic level items...”.
“I know, Elin. He is very valuable.” My reply was to briefly break Elin's words halfway through.
We finally arrived. The sword-forging Kobold looked extremely exhausted and was drinking water in a wooden glass. Nevertheless, He immediately knelt before me and Elin without a word.
“Build. Did you forge this sword?” I asked the Kobold.
Hearing my words, the Kobold nodded its head.
“Elin apparently...” Not finished saying, I saw the confused figure of Elin.
“Elin what's wrong?”
“Kobold it…. I firmly believe that he had no talent at all before. But now..” Reply Elin, broken. He seemed to not believe that his Observer skill could be wrong.
Immediately, Elin shared the information she obtained through her skill with me.
[Kowel]
[Rarity: Normal]
[Trait]
[Dedication of the Talentless] Rating: S
The inability to meet the expectations of his Master made him feel weak. Without having talent, he was only able to do anything with extreme dedication.
Effect: Improving the results of any work done to a higher level at the price of extreme work time and concentration.
“Ah…. So it's like that? Is because He is not talented and feels unable to meet our expectations.” I also started thinking.
If only the Trait possessed by a monster could increase or evolve like Oliver's, then my potential as a Summoner would not, as a Dungeon Master would increase by leaps and bounds.
‘But why has this never appeared before?’ I thought in my heart.
Instantly I remembered about one of my passive skills.
【Master of The Monster】
In addition to increasing the loyalty and status of my monsters, this skill also increased the individual development of monsters. In other words, some of the traits that have developed lately are due to this skill.
‘What a very strong skill…. It's worth belonging to the Legendary’ level I thought to myself.
“Eric, what are you doing?” Asked Elin who saw me from earlier in silence.
“Ah is okay. Anyways…. Nice work. I'll give you a gift for your incredible work.” I said to the Kobold.
The Mana Link skill that connected my Mana with Elin was always activated. By using that….
“Sigil” Sayapku.
I give 2 small sigils and 1 medium sigil. Instantly, a light enveloped the Kobold's body. Two tattoos-like symbols appeared on the Kobold's left arm. A medium-sized sigil appears on his right arm.
Not enough to get there. I asked Elin to gulp down a few bottles of Mana Potion to immediately return her Mana. Although it is expensive, but I want to solve everything right now.
“Evolve”
[Kobold will evolve!]
[Please select the direction of evolution you want!]
Kobold Warriors
Kobolds Smith
Kobold Jewelers
Kobold Carpenter
“Already expected, most of the evolution direction is heading to the production field.” I said to myself. After that, I immediately pressed the button on [Kobold Smith].
The next event occurs just like the entire evolutionary process. Golden light enveloped the Kobold's body and now appeared a Kobold with a large and muscular body.
As always, after the evolution of the previously given sigil will disappear as a condition of possible evolution. Therefore I immediately give 2 small sigils and 1 medium sigil again.
“Your name now is Tasmith!” I said cool to that Kobold. Yes even though it's just the original name I made from Talentless and Smith. To be honest, I'm tired of having to name them all. After all, am I able to memorize all their names later?
“Serve me as the leader of the blacksmiths!”
“I will carry out your orders as best as possible, Tuanku.” Replied the Kobold kneeling before me and Elin.
Elin who saw Tasmith's status was horrified. True, Tasmith was a blacksmith. However, the total number of his Growth Stats exceeded that of players. The player at the beginning of the game only has 30 Growth Stats points. Tasmith, who had just been summoned yesterday, now had a total of 40 Growth Stats.
“That's terrible! Eric, what would happen if you managed to summon a much stronger monster? After all Oliver now also has a terrible status.” Said Elin looking at the status of Tasmith.
“Not it! Isn't the balance of this game broken if you are able to continuously summon monsters that far exceed the ability of Player?” Shouted Elin.
After thinking for a moment.
“Huh? Right too, huh? But even so, Aamori was also a Legend similar to me. You saw the butcher knife, right? Isn't his ability much more terrifying than mine?” My reply to Elin's argument.
“Ah, yes. Even he was planning to hand the blade over to a butcher NPC in the market. His strength far exceeded the Crystal Dagger I had. But still he...”.
I also cut off the words of Elin.
“What if Aamori develops further and arms all members of the Salvation Guild with Legendary-level equipment? I'm sure he'll make a much more terrible item than that knife with financial backing from Chris.” My answer.
Hearing my reply, Elin immediately fell silent.
“Some of you are more terrible but my statement regarding the game balance is not wrong. Rather than continue this debate, can you do further Evolution to Tasmith?” Ask Elin.
Yes, while arguing for a while, Elin continued to gulp down the Mana Potion from her Inventory.
“I'll try it. Evolve.” I said to Tasmith who was still kneeling before us both. Around this place were dozens of Goblins and Kobolds gathered to see what was going on.
...[.Kobold Smith, Tasmith will evolve!]...
...[.Please choose the direction of evolution you want!]...
...Kobold Craftsman...
...Kobold Runemakers...
“Uh…. A runemaker? Whatisit? I don't know but for now I'll choose Craftsmen.” I said while pressing the button in front of me.
But something happened that was beyond my expectations. The golden light that was supposed to wrap around the Kobold's body gently was now wildly exploding. The flow is so fast and causes wind that blows anything in this place.
‘Damn it! What the hell's going on? Did it fail?’
But the system notification that appeared before me made my lips smile very wide.
...[.Abnormal evolution has happened!]...
...[.Tasmith transcended the boundaries of her race!]...
...[.The Tasmith Race's change from Kobold to Halfing between humans and Kobolds!]...
...[.Extreme parameter improvements are underway!]...
...[.Mana usage increased drastically!]...
...[.Evolution Successfully!]...
After the startling process was completed, I immediately gave the sigil back to the Kobold in order to reach Epic level. Elin who had been wide-eyed since then had now fallen to the ground after seeing the final status of Tasmith.
[Tasmith, The Craftmaster]
[Bags : Halfing – Human/Kobold]
[Rary : Epic]
[Level: 5]
[Growth Stats]
STR : 8
AGI 7
INT :5
VIT 10
STA :16
DEX: 22
“Oi Elin! Don't just sit there and tell me immediately what he's capable of?” I shouted to Elin who could only remain silent on the ground.
Meanwhile, a wolf resembling a human knelt before me. His body was slimmer than the one before. Even so, the muscles throughout his body seemed so strong. His face that now looks like a man about 25 years old makes me wonder about the evolution that occurred.
‘Damn it! Isn't he much more handsome than me?!’ I screamed in my heart.
