Abe the Wizard

Chapter 25: Master Blacksmith

Abel redecorated the sword handle guard of the sword with a few ordinary gems, making it impossible to see the sapphire inside that provided magic to the sword, re-polished the guard, fitted with curved decorative strips, and replaced the sword sheath with finely shattered gemstones, which transformed the sword from the ordinary Bailey sword into a luxurious version of Ice Magic Bailey sword.

The explosion the other day had caused Abel to break the ancient vow of writing. At present, his defensiveness was insufficient and he would be put in a very dangerous position in the event of another explosion in the production process.

Time passed quickly. Three months later, Abel's daily life was full. Twelve of them already existed. One luxury version of the Fire Magic 100 practice sword, two luxury versions of the Ice Magic 100 practice sword, and five hundred practice shields made with hundred practice rough were also made. The hundred practice shields were prepared in advance for the later making of ancient vows of the Mantra.

The weather is warming, it's April, and the blacksmiths have started working in the morning.

“Abel, you and I are going to the Blacksmith's Union in Harvest City today.” Master Bentham said Abel, who watched as he forged yet another hundred rough roughs and recovering spirits.

“What are you doing at the Harvest City Blacksmith's Union?” Abel looked at Master Bentham somewhat strangely.

Master Bentham said with some excitement: “After you made the Great Sword of Magic, I applied to the Blacksmith Union for a Master's assessment. Yesterday the Blacksmith Union sent a message that the Master's assessment is today. ”

“Happy Master!” Abel knew that Master Bentham, though known as the Master Blacksmith, was just a local name, that being able to make a hundred rough rough is just the basic condition of a master, and that a professional skill is required to truly become a master of blacksmiths, so Master Bentham is just an associate master.

“Congratulations on what I did, I applied for you.” Master Bentham patted Abel's head, showing a sense of comfort on his face, and went on to say: "I spent my whole life making magic weapons. Although I couldn't make magic weapons, I couldn't be a true master, but you can be a master blacksmith now. ”

Abel was not very interested in becoming a master blacksmith, but he agreed that if he wanted to learn more about the script, a master's identity would have more access to the script, coupled with Master Bentham's strong recommendation: "I'm ready to go. ”

Abel moved nine ordinary hundred practice swords and a luxury version of Fire Magic hundred practice swords from his dedicated operating room to Master Bentham's carriage. These swords Abel prepared to throw into his own Harry's weapons shop, while the other seven and the luxury version of Fire Magic hundred practice swords were sent to the Edmund auction house if they were thrown into the Harry's arms store. Traffic will have some impact on the local price of hundred rehearsal weapons, it will also cause suspicion in other arms stores, which is detrimental to the weapons just acquired from Lord Joel in Harvest City, and the advantage to be sent to the Edmund auction house is that Edmund auction house has branches throughout the Principality, seven swords can be easily digested, and the luxury version of Fire Magic hundred rehearsal sword is left to them, Ai The Dermont Auction House auctions to maximize revenue.

Once again, riding in a carriage to Toyoharvest City, another bump along the way, Abel already had plans. This time, he went back to find a way to get a carriage with a shock absorption system. At about 10 a.m., the carriage arrived at the Toyoharvest City branch of the Blacksmith Union located in the heart of Toyoharvest City.

The blacksmith trade union, which was founded three millennia ago by several masters of blacksmiths from mankind and dwarves, joined the organization for many years thereafter, culminating in what is now the blacksmith trade union, whose function is to assess the profession of blacksmiths, to award the corresponding occupational grade medals and to provide protection to blacksmiths from joining the blacksmith trade union on the mainland.

As soon as Master Bentham entered the trade union hall with Abel, a dwarf with a big beard walked in. This was the first time Abel had seen a dwarf, and he was still restrained from staring at the dwarf.

“Bentham, old friend, the union notified me of your application and I will preside over this assessment.” The dwarf opened his arms, while Master Bentham lowered his body and the dwarf embraced each other.

Let go of the dwarf, Master Bentham, and laugh: “I didn't expect the union to let you preside over the assessment. Remember when we studied together with Mr. Robin, after all these years, you were so young. ”

Abel looked silently at the bearded dwarf and couldn't really see where Master Bentham said he was young.

“This is my disciple, Abel Harry.” Master Bentham pointed to Abel standing aside to introduce the dwarf.

Master Bentham turned his head and said to Harry, "This is Master Thorin Oak Shield, my brother. ”

Thorin Oakenshield jumped up and shouted back: "It's Brother! ”

“When we were studying together, I was a year younger, and you were a child, and of course I was a teacher.” Master Bentham looked proudly at Master Thorin.

“Oh, I was older than you, though I was a child.” Master Thorin waved his fist and yelled.

Abel finally understood the rivalry between them, and the dwarves lived a long life span, generally reaching 500 years, and ordinary humans were only 100 years old, so these rivalries existed.

When Master Thorin saw that he could not compete for results at once, he turned to carefully gauge Kia Abraham: "Is this your application for a master apprentice? That's too young, isn't it? You only applied once in your life and gave him a chance to judge the master level? ”

Successive questions showed Master Thorin's mistrust that Abel was too young, and any craftsmanship of blacksmiths had to be grinded together by time.

“I'm almost sixty years old, my strength has been lost in my body, and I've lost my ability to become a master all my life, and I thought I'd never get to use this application again, but...” Master Bentham looked proudly at Abel and went on to say, "Ever since Abel learned from me, he has created a miracle once and possessed the ability of a master, so I came here. ”

“Well, you decide, let's get started.” Master Thorin came to the room with two people, and three mirrors were placed on the wall of the room, a blacksmith's console in the middle, complete with tools and a flaming fireplace beside it.

Master Thorin took out six rubies and placed them in a groove on the wall. The mirror surface swayed for a moment, revealing three figures, a dwarf and two humans.

Master Bentham bowed to the three men in the mirror and said, "Hello, three masters, it's time for three masters. ”

Seeing Abel's astonishment, Master Thorin explained to Abel the process of applying for a master rating. The master blacksmith had five places in his life to apply for a master rating, and the senior blacksmith had only one place in his life, and once the application was approved, one master would be present, while the other three masters would remotely monitor the assessment process through the Magic Array.

This magic array can only transmit images, cannot transmit sounds, and is made by the Elves' master of formation.

“Let's get started.” When the explanation was clear, Master Thorin said to Abel.

Abel did not speak. He bowed first to Master Thorin and then to the three masters in the mirror.

The ingredients on the console were boutique. Abel picked up a piece of fine iron from the console and threw it into the furnace. After a while, he removed the fine iron from the furnace and began to beat it repeatedly. The skilled technique and fast speed reached 80 exercises in more than two hours, followed by 80 to 100 exercises.

With the use of mental strength, 80 to 100 exercises exercise faster than before. Master Thorin's gaze has changed somewhat from the beginning. Skilled in using mental strength to exercise is not common among these masters. Most masters use experience to forge 80 to 100 exercises.

A hundred exercises were completed soon, Abel rested for a moment and began to fight his best sword. Time passed quickly, and the sword had been molded, but Abel did not stop, and then used his brass to open a hole in the guard's hand.

This move moved Master Thorin's eyes, and he had to turn to Master Bentham, who nodded at him, confirming his thoughts.

Master Thorin knew that Bentham had been studying the project his whole life, and although Bentham himself was unlikely to make it, it seemed that his disciples had fulfilled his wishes.

By the time Abel pulled out the pen, Master Thorin had confirmed his thoughts, the magic weapon, a high-end, master-class weapon, all very valuable among the master-class weapons.

Looking at Abel, who was completely separated into the process of drawing the script, the three masters in the mirror also discovered what weapons he was going to make, all of which had to be given more attention.

The final sapphire and spiritual guidance is very smooth. An ice magic sword has been completed. Although the sword has not been decorated, the ice magic sword in front of these masters is excellent enough to pass the master blacksmith's assessment.

Master Thorin turned to look at the three figures in the mirror, and as the three masters passed, Master Thorin took a medal out of his arms and said to Abel with a sobering look: "Congratulations, Master Abe Harry, on becoming the thirty-sixth master blacksmith of the blacksmith union. ”

Master Thorin wore the medal to Abel's chest and embraced Abel in front of him. Abel also learned to look like Master Bentham before. He lowered his head in response to Master Thorin's embrace, which indicated that Master Thorin was already treating Abel equally.

And the three masters in the mirror gave a gift to Abel, and after Abel's salute, the image in the mirror disappeared.
