The metal ingot that Walker was going to use was already heating while he watched the demonstration and as soon as the wandering blacksmith stopped to work on the next piece, Walker had begun to hammer. This was watched by the wandering blacksmith very carefully in case there were any imperfections. 

When Walker began to shape and cut the iron there was a moment of worry. But when he saw the wandering blacksmith glancing at him he felt his confidence rise and he cut with force. Using the tongues to roll the metal in the same way that he had just witness, Walker felt that it was much easier to work with than he had expected. This was as if he was forging in his own home. It was a slight perk of having the portable forge skill. 

\' The skill iron rolling has been taken from the inventor system. The skill iron rolling has been automatically learned.

Iron rolling- passive

The style of rolling hot iron comes through experience. The more the user gets a feel for the iron and the purity of it, the better he will get at rolling it. There are many uses in the world for rolled iron and often it is in high demand. The user will be able to better roll the iron in to a perfect circular or round orb shape.\'

The skill didn\'t sound impressive, however, when it came to precision crafting it would be ideal to have. It was also a passive skill that would help him feel how to work with iron better which at the end of the day would improve his forging skills.

The wandering blacksmith had begun to shape rings along the rolled metal so that there would be a piece for the braided string to move through and stay attached. This was the hardest part since the piece of iron was smaller and cooled much faster. Walker was not ashamed to say that he broke a total of fifteen rings before he managed to attach his first. The wandering blacksmith managed to attack all of them on to each of the three metal rod pieces without fail. 

The reel was another challenge but after watching the wandering blacksmith shape it, Walker found it was very similar to the first portion until the metal was forcefully warped to have a place for the string to wrap. The small wooden handle added was even more simple. It consisted of a nearly uncarved piece of stick. It was as simple as it could get while still working perfectly. 

The hoods were much like the loops that Walker had broken. They needed to be evenly shaped and forged or else they would break and bend. This meant that after over an hour, Walker had a pile of broken or poor hooks in front of him with only a handful of successful hooks. The few successful ones were looked over and kept by the wandering blacksmith to be compared to his which were all perfection. 

The braiding of the sting was the simplest part of the entire process. The wandering blacksmith toed the strings on to the anvil and made sure there were six pieces of even length. Then he copied a similar braid t how Walker had seen his mother braid Lisas\' hair once upon a time. 

Due to his familiarity with the braiding actions, Walker was able to pick it up even faster than he the rolling iron skill. The wandering blacksmith actually stopped and watched him when he noticed the speed at which Walker was braiding with complete focus. 

\'The skill swift braiding has been taken from the maid system. The skill swift braiding has been automatically learned due to past experiences and user actions. 

Swift braiding- 1 mana cost per hour

The user has nimble fingers to efficiently and speedily braid the known patterns together. Minimal mana causes the user to be able to move much faster through the motions. The braid will always be firm and hold up well unless purposefully unraveled.\'

This was a skill Walker was sure would come in handy elsewhere. He had seen many handmade swords with braided rope wrapped around handles. There were even smaller uses such as braiding Lisa\'s hair or even just strengthening rope for multiple purposes.

When Walker finished and assembled the parts he found himself looking at nearly two identical fishing rods. 

\'Iron fishing rod

Atk +3, Def +2, Agi +5

Made by Walker. This is a sturdy basic fishing rod for catching medium and small fish. There are chances to capture a large fish if used with care. The ability to channel mana through the fishing rod is weak but possible. The braided fishing line is handmade and much tougher than a basic fishing line allowing for a higher probability of catching any fish that bites. A very worthy first fishing pole.\'

Walker was proud of his fishing pole. When he compared it to the wandering blacksmiths\' he noticed that his was called the strong iron fishing rod and had one more stat point in each stat than his. It also had the phrase, made without any imperfections within the iron. This was just to be expected due to the gaps in experience. But overall, a very great result.
