"When did you have time to make this?" Walker was very impressed by the quality of the pendant that the wandering blacksmith had handed over without a single blink of an eye. It was very useful and used rare materials to produce a very good effect.

"Five." The wandering blacksmith only retorted with this.

"There are five of these within this room!" The reaction from Rise was the greatest as of yet. Walker had read the qualities out loud after checking with the all around appraisal skill. Everyone within the room knew just how good this pendant was. For there to be five all together was a miracle to a normal blacksmith.

"So you have been crafting with gems and crystals. I would have to ask you later for one of those using dark materials." Mordant was showing a little greed. But what was surprising Rise was that the man known as the wandering blacksmith was still calm and focused on his teaching.

"I feel like you just have amazing things up your sleeve every time I see you. But should I take a guess that you were inspired by the dragons and elves coming together?" Walker picked up on this. He could see that there were multiple materials covering every elemental affinity.

"Heavy demand." From the simple words, Walker gained enough insight.

"The demand around the city for elemental gathering items is increasing so you are taking advantage. You normally don\'t care about how much gold you can make. So you have to be after something else. Maybe you are trying to buy some materials?"

"Materials are valuable to a blacksmith that that one of the royal dragons stands by. And with materials you would be willing to hand over the other four of these pendants?" Rise was dead set on getting the pendant. She cared not that this was not a dragon before her. This blacksmith had worked with Ignus so he had some backing when it came to the dragon race. It also meant that if things went poorly, multiple dragons would be after him.

The wandering blacksmith smiled while getting four boxes that had a pendant within each he opened them facing Rise so that she could see they are all identical. "Then I have decided. Because you are backed by Ignus and Mordant with your quality creations. I will give you the honor of giving them to me. I will have materials brought from the nest to you. You should be able to use the discarded dragon teeth well."

"You are handing over baby dragon teeth? Well, that was unexpected." Mordant knew that the baby dragon teeth were a valuable material. Sometimes the dragonkin would use them for their own weapons.

"I would say that Rise made the right choice. She saw that it was exactly something my friend here wanted." Walker pointed out that the wandering blacksmith was much happier. He could do a lot with the light affinity materials in forging. He could most likely create items with a high light affinity using a small tooth from a baby dragon. It would also be a much higher quality than most other things made using different materials.

"Why would I not offer fair reward for creating something that is beneficial to the pure mana that myself and my dragons search for?" Rise just shook it off. However, Walker saw this as a major victory. With Rise convinced that there would be more great things like this in Genesis, it was a win.

Before Walker could ask the wandering blacksmith anything else, there was a slight commotion outside the door.

"What\'s going on?" The door was opened as soon as Walker asked. He was greeted by Rodney who had guided Ignus of all people to the door.

"I heard that Rise may be trying to put the blacksmith I have hired for my armor at risk. I came to ensure that he was not harmed." Ignus was very defensive of the wandering blacksmith. The simple reason was that he was both teaching and creating for him.

"That is not what I would do. You think I am an indiscriminate killer? Blood would tarnish my scales and mana. How foolish you are. Still a child." Rise immediately reprimanded Ignus. The result was Ignus unintentionally adding to the heat of the room.

"Can you try and keep things calm? I have just started to show Rise around with Walker. I had to sit in that Light elemental floor for hours. You were busy too weren\'t you?" Mordant was not having the interruption.

"Who cares what I was doing? I was told of something that requires my presence." Ignus did not budge. He showed off just how stubborn he could be.

"Alright then, let\'s go see Su and how the dragonkin are training. As much as she might want to be at the cathedral, I know that she will be dragged to the training area of the adventurer\'s guild by now." Walker decided to keep things moving. "Your dragonkin should be there along with your champion\'s guardian. I believe they were very excited to come here and see other guardians."

"Training with a human? I do not believe they would drop to-. Against the other guardians and dragonkin?" Rise did not believe that all the guardians and dragonkin warriors would readily agree to train together. She believed that they would prefer to keep their styles pure.

"Oh? It seems that you do not understand what a warrior is. You fly around too much. You may be older but I know more about my warriors. I fight alongside them at times to show my strength as the greatest fire dragon in this world! A warrior wants to get better at any cost." Ignus sounded more like Scylla than Walker wanted to say. He wondered how well the two would get along if they ever had free time.

"I know you want to argue with him, but let\'s see what he is talking about first." Walker asked this simple thing from Rise before she blew up at him. She had been brought to a happy enough mood after seeing the pendants. "I will also have those brought back to my mansion. We are setting aside a room for you there anyways. It will be better to have them kept with things you would like to take back to your village."

"I will allow that. I expect them to be guarded and unharmed." Rise was like every dragon. She valued her items and would not allow hard to come to them. Walker just nodded.

Their walk through the streets towards the adventurer\'s guild was short. It was lucky that they were so close in terms of location. The idea of having the major buildings nearby one another was truly paying off. More so because Walker could see that there were many people moving between all of them and resting in the open square to enjoy the atmosphere.

"Come on! Fight like men!"

"That sounded like Barry. Shouldn\'t he still be resting?" Walker was not sure why Barry would be in the training area. Yet when they rounded the edge of the adventurer\'s guild he was struck by the many adventurers that were there.

"I understand. The injured were sent back to the city first. Since we forced Barry to come back because he is technically still recovering from his injuries, well, he did this." The entire training field had been set up for many people to train. Dragonkin, elves, and demi-humans made up the majority. They were training their skills against one another while some of the most experienced adventurers and warriors pointed out flaws.

"There is Su. she seems to be with three other warriors." Mordant easily moved through the training ground to watch the training that Su was doing.

"You must use the mana in your weapons. You do not need to have an ability to use magic, just that you add it to your weapons to resist an attack." The guidance that Su was giving pertained to one skill that she had begun to use more and more. The light shield.

"What I do not understand is how you are able to manifest this skill so easily. Do you require the shield to hold the mana? Or do you require more?" The two warriors asking these questions were from Current\'s dragonkin warriors. The last was the guardian from the light elemental dragon village.

"You are here and not guarding your champion!? How could you abandon the one place you belong." The light elemental mana reacted to Rise\'s anger instantly. The pressure in the entire training field grew tremendously.

"If you cause a single ounce of trouble in my training field I will crack your skull. Regardless of you being a dragon or a rat!" Barry roared out. His berserker roar of anger making even the strongest warrior feel shivers down their spines.
