The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 54 - Development of Dungeon 2
Me and Elin were sitting with tense faces in a room. Inside this room was extremely hot due to the embers blazing from all directions. The noise of hammer blows was also heard at all times. Yes, this place is where monster blacksmiths work.
The Goblins and Kobolds worked hard forging metal into various required equipment. Hoe, shovel, pickaxe, sword, shield, arrow and so on. But our focus was only on a monster. Or maybe it's more appropriate if I call it a craftsman?
[Tasmith, The Craftmaster]
[Level :61]
Several weeks had passed since Tasmith had evolved abnormally. Since then he has always been with Oliver to perform the eradication of Dungeon Orcs on a regular basis every day. Honestly speaking because the ever-increasing population of monsters made me want to find a new Dungeon to loot. Ah, I mean used.
But I can't be greedy. I have to use what I have. Even without even stepping foot now my level has returned to 68. Elin's level had also risen to 141. But that's a story for another time.
Now it's….
‘Ttraang!’
‘Ttraaaang!!’
The sound of the iron hammer punch used by Tasmith sounded so loud. His body is now more like a human but there are some characteristics of a wolf looks so cool when holding an iron hammer.
As described by his Trait, He really sacrificed a lot of time and energy for every job. That's why I assigned her who just finished training in the Orc Dungeon to create a Smithing Hammer.
I want them to have a better hammer. According to Elin's explanation, the higher the quality of the hammer used, the quality of the items produced will also increase.
over 30 hours have passed since Tasmith forged the Smithing Hammer. But there was no sign that his work would be finished soon. Elin and I, who were just sitting waiting for the hammer to finish, were also not just silent. When the Mana has been sufficient, I summon the new Kobold.
Why am I just waiting for Tasmith? Of course because of the effects of the Master of the Monster skill that increased the status of the monsters that were near me. The effect will disappear if I stay away from Tasmith.
In the end, after 40 hours….
“I have finished my work.” The man who is none other than Tasmith.
Elin and I, who were dead from boredom, had been lying down for a long time and watching MeTub.
“Ah? Already done?!” Shouted Elin hearing Tasmith's words.
I who heard Elin's cry also immediately got up and saw her hammer.
The material used is Mithril. Elin bought it through the Auction feature in the City a few days ago. The price? Extraordinarily expensive. Just to meet the needs of making 1 hammer, Elin spent over 2,000 gold coins! For fear of loss, Elin only bought for 1 hammer.
“How did it go? I beg you not to be too ugly..” Said Elin while rubbing her palms together. His eyes were closed as if he did not want to see the bitter reality.
But I do know. Even without looking at the status of the item directly, I believe the resulting hammer was quite good.
[Mithril Hammer of Smithing]
[Rarity: Unique]
[Maker : Tasmith]
[Attribute]
Attack Power :1.250 – 1.700
Attack Speed: - 20%
Dexterity: + 30%
Stamina :+ 20%
[Special Effect]
The Great Hammer of Smithing
Effect: Improves the quality of items made by 25% and all item attributes by 33%. The chance of giving a special effect to the item being made increases by 10%.
I who do not understand about the blacksmith skill can only be amazed at the attributes possessed. But unlike me, Elin seemed very happy to see this item.
“Eric! We'll be very rich in an instant!” His shouting.
“Hah? What do you mean, Elin?”
“Then what about Aamori? Isn't that legendary blacksmith-made item much more terrifying?” My reply.
Yes, the items made by Aamori are terrible. A few days ago, Chris sent out an item description. He asked Aamori to make a large sword using Mithril and Black Iron.
The outcome? Maybe I'll talk about it another time. But of course the rarity of that item was at the Legendary level. The ability of the great sword was as if it was making a meat knife that was made before like a child's toy.
That was the true strength of a legendary blacksmith. Therefore, I'm not sure that Tasmith-made items are capable of rivaling them on the market.
“Have you forgotten something Eric?” Elin asked with a smile.
“Forget what it is? Didn't you yourself also see the status of Aamori's item?”
“Yes, I know. But you forgot that Chris exploited Aamori for his own Guild. In other words, only members of the Salvation Guild and the two of us can order items made by Aamori. What about the other players?” Elin asked while crossing both arms.
With his statement, I came to understand what Elin meant.
The Salvation Guild would rule this game world with legendary items.
Meanwhile, the other players could only dream of acquiring powerful items.
“If an Aamori item is not sold in the market, while another Player knows the power of the item owned by the Salvation Guild then…. Tasmith's Unique Items will sell out loud without competitors!” I shouted after realizing that.
“True once, Eric. We won't have many competitors. Most blacksmiths other than Aamori were only able to create Unique-level items once in a while, even with a good hammer. Meanwhile, Tasmith was able to create a Unique level item only once in an experiment with a makeshift iron hammer.” Obviously Elin.
“The cause of the difference is very clear that Dexterity owned by Tasmith is very unreasonable. Just imagine what kind of item Tasmith can make with her crazy Dexterity combination and a really good hammer?” Elin.
“He will be able to produce an item that almost matches Aamori's?”
“Well, if that seems impossible. The difference between Legendary and Unique is huge. But at least we will be able to make a very strong item on the market!” Elin answered while clenching her right hand.
Everything was decided then and there. Tasmith would become the leader of the blacksmiths and make high-level items. After that, Elin went back to the city to buy more Mithril. He planned to spend all the rest of his money on Mithril. Yes, given Tasmith's abilities, I'm sure Elin will have a huge advantage.
“Tasmith, you've created an incredible item! I'm amazed at your work! As a gift, from today you will use that hammer as your workmate.” I said to Tasmith who is still on his knees holding the hammer.
“What a wonderful gift, Mr. Eric. Me, Tasmith will work even harder with this hammer.” The reply. He stood up immediately.
“If allowed, I want to rest for a while Mr. Eric.” Tasmith.
Yes, I understand that Tasmith has no talent. Therefore, He traded it for hard work that no one else could imagine. He didn't even sleep for 40 hours forging the hammer.
To be honest, I feel very sorry for him. Wouldn't if it continued like this, he could die? Of course I don't want to lose such an extraordinary person.
“Tasmiths. Which do you prefer to be your servant? Goblin or Kobold?” I asked Tasmith without answering her request.
“If allowed to choose, I will choose Goblin.” Answer's short.
“Alright then...”
I also immediately used my Summoning skill. My man who is always connected with Elin seems to not know the word rest.
After the animation of the magic circle that appeared before me ended, 5 goblins emerged from behind the light.
“The five of you will be Tasmith's servants. Your job is to meet their needs. And also for Tasmith, make use of them as you please. Please do not let your hard work make you fall. Now, take a break.” I said to Tasmith.
Hearing my words, Tasmith knelt down before me. Behind his fierce look, there were tears from him and a simple sentence.
“Thank you, Milord. I will serve you better.”
