Lisetta enters the Alliance's workshop (atelier) with her hair combed (and) more carefully than usual wrapped around a circle of fingers.

(Pfft. It's Mr. Loran's coming day. I have to appeal to the first cup of eyes)

"Yo. Risetta."

"Hi, Lisetta. You'll always have more today to take care of."

"Oh, Edgar, Charles. Good morning. Hey. Is Mr. Loran here already?

Edgar and Charles look at each other and laugh niggardly and mean.

"I'm out of cooperation with 'Golden Eagle'!?

Lisetta said as upset.

"What the hell is that? What do you mean? Why so suddenly..."

"He was a fake."

"Fake?"

"It's an identity fraud. He said he was a fraud."

I thought I was suspicious from the start.

(fake...... that guy?

"You were powdering him to get a job."

"I'm sorry to hear that. Let me guess."

The two laugh at each other with Guerraggera.

"So, what about that guy? Where is Loran now?

Lisetta asked desperately.

"Looks like they're opening an Alchemy Guild out of town."

"Alchemy guild?

"Yes. Guild name for sure...... Was it" Spirit Factory "?

"What the hell do you want to do? Are you trying to guess?

"... yes"

Risetta turns her heels back and heads for the exit.

"Hey, where are you going?

She didn't answer that, she just left the room, making a grumpy loud noise and closing the door.

"Chip. What the fuck. That guy."

"I'm alone. The usual seizures."

Out of "Dragon Fire," Lisetta headed straight for "Spirit's Factory".

(Whether Loran is really fake or not. I'll make sure with these eyes)

Loran was having another interview.

(Strengthens Eina's Endurance (Toughness). But as things stand, she can't solve this problem on her own. We need to find someone with a skill status to compensate for her weakness)

As such, a suitable person appeared while the interview was in progress.

He was a young man with a long disappointed physique, and a soft look on his back.

[Roddy Leavitt's Status]

Arm Power: 60-80

Endurance (Toughness): 60-90

Jun Min (Agility): 30-40

Health (Stamina): 60-80

(Found it. Endurance (Toughness) Class A. Besides......)

[Roddy Leavitt's Skills]

"Ore Refining": C B

"Metal molding": D C

"Product Design": D A

"Silver Fine": E C

("Product Design" also has class A potential)

"I say Roddy. Well, the reason I'm aspiring is because the guild I work for is too low to support my brothers."

"I see. If you come to us, we'll make sure you pay the salary stated in the recruitment requirements. Plus help with skill development. I just want you to follow the sub at first."

"Fine. If you can hire me on this salary, I'll do anything with a sub"

"Okay. So can you come right away, even from tomorrow?

"Yes!"

I discontinued the interview that day.

Aina was walking on the road to the workshop (Atelier), remembering yesterday.

(I couldn't do the norm yesterday. Today is the day I have to work hard to feel like I can make ten proper swords c)

Eina took a deep breath in front of the entrance door to the workshop (Atelier) before opening the door.

"Good morning. Thank you again today. What?"

Aina opened the workplace door as she greeted her well, but noticed that there was Loran and a stranger there, patting her eyes.

"Morning, Eina. You're in the mood."

"Ah, good morning, Mr. Loran. Um... what about that guy?

"I'll introduce you. I've been asked to work in our workshop since today, Roddy."

"Oh, thank you."

Roddy bows his head in a peck.

"Ah, nice to meet you"

Aina bows her head too.

"Aina, I'll have him serve as your sub"

"What!? Subs? Wah, to me?

"That's right. Is there a problem?

"Hey, hey. I was wondering if it was okay. Please put on such a budget as I do. Even though it's only half a serving."

"No problem. You deserve it!

Aina was thrilled with the way Loran said it.

(Awesome confidence. It's like you're convinced I'm going to grow......)

"So let's get started. Eina, I need you to make ten C-Class swords today."

"Yes."

"Roddy, you're Aina's support. I want you to work on putting this iron on the table first. And follow Eina's instructions to fine-tune the iron locations and angles so she can mold easily."

"Ha. Is that all?

"All you have to do is box the finished product when your hands are free and prepare the iron to strike next. To make one point, to support Eina as much as possible so that she can focus on molding. I want to improve her skills, metal molding."

"Okay. I'm good at that kind of work, so I'll take care of it."

"Aina, you must focus on molding. If you need anything, don't hesitate to tell him."

"Yes, sir"

"I guess this is the place for now. I'll leave the details to the two of you. Talk to him."

"" Yes ""

The two got to work quickly.

Roddy puts the iron on the workbench, and Aina hammers it to mold it and stick it together.

(Okay. The task of consolidating iron into one is over. Shape it next)

Eina taps and shapes the iron light points visible by the skill 'Metal Molding'.

(! Points slackened)

"Can you cheat the iron? Let this part come here."

"Okay. Is this it?

"Yes, okay."

Once Aina hits it for a while, the light point flashes again.

"Flip it next time"

"Okay."

That's how they go about their work.

It wasn't the first time they worked together, but one of these days, their breath would come together and Roddy would move the iron without Eina having to instruct him.

The two create swords with the breath of an abalone like a cake job.

(I see. I'm not too tired of this. Although it takes more work time than doing it alone, I can concentrate on 'metal molding' for that matter!

Loran kept an eye on the work between the two.

(5th sword c. Yesterday, Aina's arm strength (power) and endurance (toughness) began to fall steadily from around here...)

[Aina's Status]

Arm Strength (Power): 40-50

Endurance (Toughness): 20-30

Jun Min (Agility): 60-70

Health (Stamina): 50 ( 20) - 70

(Only health (stamina) is falling. All right, no problem. I can do this)

Saki comes in for tea just like she did yesterday as Loran watches the two of them.

"Go ahead."

"Saki. Right. It's time for tea."

"Oh? They were getting more people, weren't they? I should have brought you another cup."

"Fine. If I had those two minutes. I'll be patient today."

"One, two, three, four..., is this now the eighth sword? Aina, you don't look tired today."

"Oh, Roddy's turning to support has reduced Eina's burden"

(Again, extra work other than 'metal molding' was damaging her endurance (toughness))

Endurance (Toughness) was a status that was shredded by being attacked by monsters, etc., but if it was too low, it would be shredded just for normal work.

"Although time and cost are more expensive than usual, this would be..."

Eventually, on the platform is put iron to make the tenth sword today.

(Now......, last!

When Aina waves the hammer down, she can do the tenth sword C.

"Yay, I did. Done."

Aina raised her admiration as she wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"Wow. Awesome."

Saki applauded.

"Mr. Loran, I've got ten swords."

"Tell me. I was confident in my hard work, but this is so tight. My arms, my muscles hurt."

Aina and Roddy rush over to Loran.

"Oh, you did good. Well done..."

Loran looks to Aina without blinking.

"Today...... why don't you try some more"

"Loran......?

"So, to nourish your English chi, why don't you take a tea break?

Saki said as she raised the pot.

Aina and Roddy sat in a chair once and decided to sip tea.

Across the break, the two strike their swords in again.

(I wonder what's wrong, Mr. Loran. I can't believe I suddenly got an extra job. He said that he would care twice as much about people not working too hard)

Aina keeps hitting the iron as she glances at her face.

Loran appraised Aina for her skills.

It was visible to his eyes.

There are signs of her growth.

[Aina's Skills Improvement Conditions]

Sword creation: 0/1

If you combine Loran's skills, "Skill Appraisal" and "Development," you can notice rare opportunities to improve your skills.

(Flagged Skill Improvement. One more sword to complete and her skills will be......)

Suddenly, I saw a sword glow in Aina's eyes in a way I'd never seen before.

(What? What?

Aina wandered.

"What's up?

Roddy peeks into Aina's face in surprise.

"No, the..."

(I wonder what. This part of me that is glowing, though I'm not sure. Like you could do a better sword by sharpening this part?

"Aina!"

Loran spoke up.

"Fine. Do whatever you want. [M] I did what Norma did today."

After a short tour, Aina lets go of the hammer and retrieves the chisel (only).

"Aina?"

"Roddy. I'm gonna cut the part here a little bit, so support me there."

Eina waves down the hammer by putting up (only) a hammer on the glowing part of the sword.

The sword cracks unusually beautifully.

"This is..."

Roddy blinked his eyes.

(It's obviously not the same brilliance as previous swords, even though I just scraped it a little. This...)

"The power of the sword has increased."

Loran said.

[Sword Status]

Power: 70

Endurance: 50

Weight: 50

"Power 70 (Class B)! Apparently Eina's 'Metal Moulding' has been leveled one step."

"My skills..."

Aina stares at her palm unexpectedly.

(Indeed..., there was a response. But this happened yesterday today...)

[Aina's Skills]

"Metal moulding": B ()

"Oops."

Loran lifts his sword.

"Shall I keep this sword? I don't have a body to deliver as a sword C."

"Yes, sir"

Roddy felt like he was stuck in a fox.

(Sword B? What do you mean, Eina's skills have improved? But it's too abrupt. What the hell happened? No way, is this Loran's skill?

"Good luck to Roddy, too"

"Oh, yes."

"Aina, Roddy. That's it for today. Because I will be in this system for a while. Tomorrow, please."

"Yes."

Roddy was surrounded by a strange feeling.

(I wonder what. It's obviously not the same place you've been working. This is..., this person...)

At that time, the entrance door opened with momentum.

Together, look back and look towards the entrance.

There was a red-haired twin-tailed girl there.

"You... are definitely from" Dragon Fire "..."

"It's Lisetta."

She smiles nicely.

"I looked for you. Mr. Loran."

An unpleasant, sweet voice echoed in the workshop (atelier).
