Walker\'s breath was rapid and surprised. All he could think about was not the skill itself but the fact that there was a wandering forge master system. He had the wandering blacksmith back at the mansion who most likely had this system. He just had never actually asked what the system was but Walker felt it had to be this system. How else could the wandering blacksmith head to the mountains and learn blacksmithing with materials there? Or head to lava fields and learn. He had to have this skill as well.
"Grey...I need some help to make my own forge." Grey wasn\'t sure he had heard Walker correctly.
"I know you have just finished your first weapon and it\'s a great feeling. But don\'t go building a whole forge. You\'re young and have plenty of places t see before you find a place to settle down." Grey thought that Walker was getting ahead of himself. "You haven\'t even used your fancy appraisal skills on your dagger either. I want to hear what it can do."
Walker hesitated but decided to look at the dagger before he risked giving Grey a heart attack with his newly learned skill and asked for a lot of things to create a portable forge. Something he had heard and expected to be a mastery skill but was really just a very rare high tier skill.
\'Pure iron dagger
Atk +12, Agi +10, Def +6
The creator of this dagger was extremely careful to remove the impurities from the iron used to make this dagger. The blade has been sharpened to near perfection and boosted the attack stats of the dagger higher than most basic iron daggers. The fusion of leather and metal on the handle has allowed for better gripping and a strong er hold allowing for the defensive stats to be added to the toughened dagger. The creator of the dagger is known as Walker, this is the first creation.\'
"Not bad at all. This is top of the low tier daggers for sure. Normally those defense stats wouldn\'t be there, but that was the fusion of the leather and metal. I really didn\'t think you would be able to do that on the first try. It separates the low tier blacksmiths from the mid tier blacksmiths." Grey was impressed with this but continued.
"The purity is from the hard work of smashing the iron over and over. You could have taken half the time to create this dagger but you would have impurities and a lot less strength. That agility comes from the purity of the metal. If it was impure it would be heavier and slow the wielder down. Since it is pure it can speed the user up because it is so light." Grey took the dagger and pointed to the near flawless loom on the blade, "But remember, it\'s not done until we polish this up and show it off."
Grey smirked and grabbed some cloths and metal shine to start teaching Walker how to do so. "You\'ll need to know how to shine your weapons and the golem anyways. It makes them last longer and maintains their appearance when you are entertaining." Grey was not going to let Walker walk about with dull and ugly weapons.
"So, what I was saying before…" Walker was a little worried to tell Grey about the portable forge skill but figured it was a good time now that Grey had heard the appraisal and evaluated the bald himself. He was also able to speak while Walker watched and learned to polish the blade.
"Yes? About a forge? I think you should build one when you are good and ready. Adventure a little more first." Grey had done this too since he had gone out to gather his own materials before joining the high forge completely and becoming an apprentice.
"Well actually, I have the portable forge skill now and I need to gather the required items and materials so that I can create it for when I\'m traveling. I thought it was a mastery skill but apparently, it is only a high tier skill that is pretty rare. The system says it\'s from the wandering forge master system but It also says that it can come from any forge master system." Walker started to over explain as he watched Grey\'s face become a mask of seriousness.
When the dagger fell to the floor and clattered, Walker realized that he had completely broken Grey. His face was a little pale and his eyes weren\'t focusing. The slight shake in his hands betrayed the fact that he was indeed still thinking and trying to process the impossible thing that Walker had just spoken.
Grey stood up and shakily walked to the barrel of water used to cool metals. He took a hand full and threw it at his face revealing that he had a cleaner complexion under the soot and ash than expected. "Well, I think I need to retire. I\'m starting to hear the craziest things." Grey could only think he was losing his mind now.
