Chapter 175 - Special Twilight Sword
'This is…'
Lucas could guess what was happening and it was none other than the phenomenon of the weapon gaining a skill.
'It is definitely because of the level 1 weaponsmithy.'
How could Lucas not know how it was possible because only rank 4 or higher level weaponsmiths has a small chance of embedding some random skill to a weapon,
However, the young dwarf who became rank 2 weaponsmith very recently was definitely not capable of achieving the feat.
'Sigh'
Nevertheless, in the next moment, Lucas could not help but sigh because Buzz is a rank 2 weaponsmith and the weapon he was creating would be a rank 2.
A rank 2 dagger with a skill is still useless for the current me.
'Anyway, I can either give it to someone as a reward or just sell it after starting the trade with the other towns.'
Soon, Lucas thought of what he could do with the refined dagger.
"Huf Huf
"
The light covering the dagger disappeared after a couple of minutes and the young dwarf was completely exhausted as he breathed heavily.
"Fa…mi…ly he…ad…huf.
"
While breathing, the young dwarf noticed Lucas as he hurriedly stood up and greeted Lucas.
"You are still working as hard as ever, Buzz.
"
Lucas shook his head and with a slight smile on his face, he walked towards the young dwarf before asking,
"Can I check this dagger?
"
Even though he was the family head and master of Silverstone town, the weapon was created by the young dwarf. So, he asked before he could check its information.
"Of course. I am going to come to you to give this weapon.
"
Dwarves usually take pride in their weapons when they are used by others. So, Buzz was not interested in keeping the weapons for himself.
'Ding,
Item name:- Special twilight dagger (Nameless).
Owner:- None.
Grade:- Rank 1 (Upgradable)
Effect:- 10 percent increase in the attack power.
Skill:- Blood devour.
Blood devour:- Using the blood of other beings, it will become stronger and breakthrough in its grades.
'What? It is only a rank 1 dagger with the usual effect?'
Lucas assumed it was a rank 2 weapon until now. So, he was surprised to see it was only a rank 1 weapon.
'Is this for real?'
Finally, after reading the skill description, Lucas was shocked.
That's right!
He was utterly shocked and felt it was a custom made weapon for him.
Since Lucas will be killing thousands of spirit beasts and other humans in the future, he would not be lacking blood from the different spirit beasts.
'I can use this dagger and the coward's dagger.'
Since an assassin could use two daggers at once, Lucas didn't hesitate to choose the 'Special twilight dagger' as his main weapon.
"Buzz, this will be your greatest creation that you can be proud of.
"
Lucas indirectly said that he would be taking the dagger for himself as he continued saying,
"I will bring out its true potential.
"
In general, a weapon could be upgraded by two methods. One is by using the weaponsmith of higher rank or with the help of an upgrade scroll or crystal.
As for upgrading the weapons on their own by devouring other beings' blood or corpses, it was not actually unheard of but they were very rare and people only heard about them in stories.
"I know, master. If it is you, it will even become a sovereign grade weapon.
"
As the creator of the dagger, the young dwarf had already known about the special skill of the dagger and knew it would be a great help for Lucas and at the same time, Lucas could help it reach a higher grade weapon.
So, he had no problems giving it to Lucas.
"You have a glib tongue, Buzz.
"
Lucas could not help but chuckle a little before asking,
"So, coming to the main business, how is the production output of the twilight weapons?
"
Previously, Lucas gave the weapon blueprint for refining the 'Twilight weapons' to the young dwarf.
With that blueprint, Buzz could create rank 1 to rank 3 weapons. So, Lucas was asking about the production of the weapons because he was planning to sell them when the self-imposed lock of the Silverstone town was over.
"Currently, I can make either five rank 1 twilight weapons or one rank 2 twilight weapon in a day. Leaving the time taken to teach my three apprentices and resting time, in the past one month, I refined 100 rank 1 and 10 rank 2 twilight daggers.
"
The young man dwarf gave the report of the monthly weapon refinement without thinking much as he knew how many weapons he was refining daily.
"It is not bad.
"
Lucas nodded his head and looked at the three young men before asking the young dwarf,
"What about them? Can they refine a rank 1 weapon?
"
"They can; however, their success rate is only 10 percent and adding with the building successful rate, it was still only 30 percent. So, I am not letting them refine the 'Twilight weapons' yet.
"
The youong dwarf scoffed at the three young men as he respectfully replied to Lucas.
'Only 30 percent? Aren't you keeping quite high standards?'
Lucas didn't know whether he should laugh or cry; however, he didn't bother to say anything.
'Since Buzz is their teacher, he creates the standards for their disciples.'
Lucas shook his head at the three young men before saying to the young dwarf,
"How long will it take for you to become the rank 3 and rank 4 weaponsmith?
"
Previously, he wanted to make money by selling the weapons created by the young dwarf; however, thanks to the Fighting arena, he didn't have to worry about the gold coins anymore.
All he wants to do is make the weapons pavilion pay the price for their actions by entering the weapons business.
'Even though I benefited a lot because of them opening the evil portal, if I didn't have the rank 5 shadow dragon, then I would have died.'
Lucas was a type to take revenge even for the smallest things and pay them tenfold.
While thinking about it, Lucas waited for the young dwarf to reply.
