Chapter 65 Magic Items

Elsey was not the only one who was moved when he heard that Link was going to make magic props. Sevis, who had eaten halfway through dinner, rushed to the union, and accompanied him was Wolf, the dwarf leader who happened to be in the city lord's mansion.

Yoda, who was reluctant to do so, could only ask Link, who was staying in the union warehouse to select materials.

"It's okay, let them in."

"But……"

"Everything has two sides, so you should think about the better."

"You mean?" Yoda didn't understand what the 'good side' in Link's mouth meant.

"Sevis himself is an authentic nobleman. He neither knows martial arts nor magic. I can make him a purely ornamental magic prop, and he can be auctioned in advance to promote it." Anyway, the news that the son of Nature was invited to become a guild master in the future will spread throughout the continent. Link believes that there is no need to hide this from Sevis.

Sevis and Wolf stared at Link, and they couldn't see the vast amount of materials in the warehouse. If the former was greedy for the title of craftsman, the latter was just a glimpse of the process of craftsman making items.

"City Lord, you're here just in time. I just signed an agreement with the union to exchange magic props for supplies for Befest. Considering that the finished products produced will be auctioned, I would like to ask you for a reference. What kind of magical products are the nobles usually interested in?"

When Sevis heard this, he immediately felt as if he was injected with blood, but Wolf answered Link's doubts in front of him.

"Hmph~The human aristocrats have the same preferences. They only like luxurious and delicate things, just refer to the style of the elf."

After clearing his throat, Sevis said that the nobles usually prefer fine workmanship and complex patterns, and it is best to fully reflect their noble status and strong financial resources.

Link's eyes swept through the pile of materials quickly, and finally froze in a large pottery bowl filled with special minerals called "Star Sand". It is translucent and somewhat similar to soul energy. It has nothing special about it except that it can shine like fluorescent light, because the melting point is too high, and it is only used as decoration for forging or enchanting. Especially when making props for the nobles, they like to attach it to the surface at high temperature.

Link walked over and reached out to pick up a handful of powdered star sand from the bowl.

Translucent, luminous properties and soul energy are a bit imaginable. If it can be melted into a solid state...

[Are you sure you want to use your mental power in this kind of place?] Lorelai's consciousness came uninvited again.

[Anyway, things that will be reset with the camp the next day, can you keep them as food?] Link felt that Lorelai's stubborn and rigid old ideas were helpless.

[Even if you want to do it, do something meaningful?] Lorelai cannot agree with Link's behavior.

The flames formed by the power of the spirit appeared blue in the air. The star sand in Link's hand seemed to be held by an invisible hand, and soon turned from sand to solid state.

"Oh oh oh ~" The dwarf's eyes were so excited that his eyes were straightened. This was the temperature that the furnace could not reach. Although I don't know how the Son of Nature did it. In short, it was great to be able to witness it with my own eyes.

Sevis, who doesn't know forging or magic, certainly doesn't know what's strange about the scene in front of him. In his opinion, Link's behavior is like a street performer performing juggling.

In fact, the blue flame is not the ultra-high temperature that Wolf thinks. It is just a manifestation of the visualization of mental power. Link uses pure mental power to condense the star sand into shape, and the fluorescence contained in the material itself is fused together, looking like light wrapped in translucent matter. Link makes it into the shape of a dagger, and the fluorescence becomes a "skeleton". It looks both mysterious and strange.

I weighed the finished product and it was unexpectedly not much weight. Is it because the material itself is also very light? In short, it is something that conforms to the aesthetics of the nobles. I wonder if Sevis is satisfied...

"This... is for me?" Sevis took it from Link in a panic. He also knew that the raw materials were star sand commonly used for decoration, but he did not expect that smelting would have such an effect.

"It's not practical, it's just an ornament." Worried about the aristocrats' favour of showing off, Link specifically reminded Serves. This thing is just pure decoration, not open-minded, nor strong. Don't use it to duel or something.

Sevis untied his belt and hung up the translucent dagger, which was about the same weight as a gem. In terms of appearance, this is indeed an artifact that combines exquisiteness and mystery. Just like its material, the symbolic meaning is greater than practicality, and the nobles use it just right.

Not only the half-elf Orlando, but even the dwarf who advocates simplicity, has to admit that this ornament is indeed good-looking. However, compared with the ignorant Serves, Wolf understands the preciousness of the craftsman better. He rushed out of the union and returned soon, and brought another dwarf Jim. The two dwarfs held gray-brown leather and silver-blue ore in their hands, begging Link to help them make a magic weapon.

As we all know, dwarves do not know magic or make magic weapons. When fighting, they rely entirely on their natural rough skin and solidity to defend against enemy attacks, and they are very disadvantaged when fighting against mages.

"This is the skin of the abyss monster you killed in the waters of Sand City. When the undead broke through the city, they sold it to Vaulet as a spoil. This should be yours." Jim presented the folded monster skin with both hands, and they had nothing to exchange for the son of nature.

Link didn't reach out to pick up Trollop's leather, he picked up the gold that Wolf was holding.

Dwarves are natural warriors, and are more suitable for heavy weapons like axes and hammers than swords. As for their attributes...

He suddenly had the idea of ​​combining the law of nature with enchantment.

[Are you sure you want to enchant the dwarf's weapons?] Lorelai's consciousness did not say that it could not be done, but just confirmed to Link whether he wanted to enchant the dwarf's weapons.

【Why do you ask this?】

[You should know your identity. The Son of Nature represents the pillar. There is a precedent like Hicks. The pillar controls the behavior of the Son of Nature very strictly. If there is a slight deviation, what awaits you is abolishing the qualification.]

[The most important thing at this stage is to deal with the god of death, and to unite all species under the anti-undead banner, it is not enough to just shout slogans.] Link's mental power suddenly increased, and all the gold in Wolf's hand floated up.

Feeling the heat from the forging of souls, Wolf and Jim couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Unlike the useless Star Sand Sword, the material used this time is precious metal pure gold, and Link invests more mental power and takes longer.

Everyone stared at the constantly changing shapes of metal in the air, melting from blocks, gathering together, and rubbing out rough shapes like kneading dough. The final product was a two-handed sledgehammer, which was made into a rock shape. Perhaps considering the height of the dwarf, the handle part was not very long, and from a distance it looked like a rough stone tool used by the ancients.

Sevis, who represented the aristocratic aesthetic, shook his head repeatedly, thinking it was too ugly. Orlando, who represented the elf aesthetic, just stared at the hammer without saying a word. As for ordinary people, Yoda and Elsey were more concerned about what the efficacy of this magic weapon is. As for beauty and ugliness, they were not within their considerations.

Wolf excitedly took the sledgehammer tailored for the dwarves. Each dwarves is a natural miner and forge. He has also made fine gold weapons. After buying them, he can feel that this weapon has some different power in addition to its weight.

As for what magic is attached, Link's answer is "You'll know it after you try it."

Elsey volunteered to take Wolf to a training ground specially opened for newcomers, and summoned a small group of mercenaries to try the first magic weapon that Link made.

Until then, Orlando, who had been silent, spoke, "I think it's better not to use a living person to test it."

"Hmm?" The mercenary leader suddenly felt strange. What does it mean to not use a living person to test it?

"You should have seen the power of Link's lightning sword, which is a strange thing he made himself. I'm worried that this hammer is too powerful, and if it accidentally causes casualties..."

After Orlando said this, Elsie was also a little worried, but how could he retreat at this time?

"Don't worry about this. I used the double law of cause and effect when I made it. As long as it doesn't touch the ground, it won't trigger its real power." Link stretched out his finger and pointed to the ground, asking Wolf to be careful, so that he should not contact the rock-shaped hammer head with the ground.

Law of cause and effect!

This word surprised the dwarf and was surprised that the son of nature would actually use the law of cause and effect on weapons that were only magical grades. The happy thing was that Link had carefully made this weapon.

Alcy, who was worried, asked his subordinates to replace all the leather shields with higher defenses. The new city entrants who were temporarily ordered to rest were curiously surrounded outside the training ground, waiting to see the scene of the dwarves fighting the mercenaries.

breathe……

After taking a deep breath, Wolf swung his sledgehammer at the human mercenary who surrounded him.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The dull striking sounds one after another, and the mercenary holding an iron shield was knocked away by a huge force and fell to pieces, including Alsey himself.

The dwarf's attack has such power? Isn't it possible? The onlookers exclaimed in surprise.

Elsey, who had fought with Wolf, knew that the dwarf did not have such strong power, and this should be the power of a magic weapon.

But what Wolf was thinking about at this moment was the real power in Link's mouth.

What happens if you touch the ground?

He couldn't control his thought of trying it out and swung the rock-shaped hammer head towards the ground.

With a bang, Wolf as the center, to be precise, the ground with the hammer as the center trembled violently, just like an earthquake. The mercenary who had just gotten up could not stand and fell all over the ground.

Wolf looked back at Link who was not affected by the shock at all, and he stroked his chin.
