The walking dragon son

Since Hephaestus said she would personally teach Ciel blacksmithing, she would not just give him a few books to learn on his own.

In addition to reading books, Hephaestus also taught Ciel how to use forging tools in the next few days.

In fact, learning forging in this world does not require a long process. As long as you master the development ability of [Forging] when upgrading, you will naturally learn to identify the properties of materials and master forging skills.

However, Hephaestus obviously had higher expectations for Ciel, which can be seen from the book she gave Ciel.

Those books record most of the material information in this world that can be used for forging, and many of them can be used for first-level equipment.

It seemed that Hephaestus believed that Ciel would become a blacksmith capable of creating first-level equipment.

As Ciel's physique grew stronger, so did his understanding and memory. He quickly completed the "homework" assigned by Hephaestus.

With Hephaestus's permission, Ciel could finally light up the forge and start creating his first work.

Although dungeons brought heavy suffering to people in ancient times, they also brought many extraordinary resources.

In addition to magic stones, there are also various dropped materials. For example, the fire used by the Charr to ignite the forge is an incendiary agent made from the material produced by the monster called the Flame Demon Rock.

Burning this material can create incredibly high temperatures, allowing for better processing of the material.

Ciel borrowed Hephaestus's forging room, so he could naturally enjoy this convenience.

Hephaestus had told Ciel that the Familia would provide an independent forging room for the blacksmith, but Ciel was still an apprentice and could only borrow Hephaestus's studio.

The ore melts quickly in the furnace and the molten iron flows into the mold.

According to Hephaestus's teachings, forging ordinary equipment can be roughly divided into a series of procedures such as processing materials, creating shapes, and final assembly and sharpening.

The first step is very important. The final quality of the equipment is often determined in this step.

Naturally, Ciel will not directly build high-end equipment, nor will it use any rare materials. It's just ordinary iron ore.

There were actually refined steel ingots in the forging room, but Ciel still followed Hephaestus's advice to start with refining the ore and become familiar with the entire forging process.

It is said that senior blacksmiths can judge the quality of steel just by looking at the state of molten iron. Of course, Charles cannot do this now, but he also knows that there will be a large number of impurities that cannot be removed in this refining.

That's why you need to keep forging, and finally you can get the equipment suitable for making...

Looking at the semi-solidified iron block, Ciel was suddenly stunned. Why should I be bound by forged common sense when I already have magic?

"Far!"

Upon hearing Ciel's call, Farr came out of the magic book and landed on Ciel's shoulder.

"That is……?"

Hephaestus stood up directly and looked at Farr on Ciel's shoulder.

Ciel looked at Hephaestus in confusion, not understanding why she had such a big reaction.

Hephaestus calmed down and said, "I already thought you were special enough, Ciel, but I didn't expect you to have such an amazing secret.

Do you know what's on your shoulder? "

Ciel touched Farr and said, "This is the elemental elf who signed a contract with me. He is my important partner."

Hephaestus smiled bitterly and looked at Ciel and said: "I don't know what the elemental elf you are talking about is, but the life essence of this little guy is clearly the same as the fairy elf.

Although it does not have the form of a fairy, it is definitely a fire fairy, and it is an existence at the level of a great fairy. "

Ciel also remembered that there is no race of elemental elves in this world, and those who control the elements are the fairy elves who are the clones of gods.

Looking at it this way, Fal is indeed very similar to the fairy.

Hephaestus looked at Ciel with emotion and said: "I didn't expect you to be the fairy's contractor. It seems that you will be able to forge a magic sword soon."

Charles looked at Farr. He really didn't expect Farr to be an existence equivalent to a fairy.

With its assistance, not to mention making high-end equipment, even making a magic sword is not a problem.

The magic sword is a special equipment in this world. Even adventurers without magic qualifications can use the magic sword to activate powerful magic.

In the beginning, the magic sword existed as a lower-level substitute for magic. Although using the magic sword does not consume your own magic power and does not require chanting incantations, the power of ordinary magic swords is actually not as powerful as the magic activated by adventurers.

But all this changed because of a family. The magic sword made by that family is said to have the power to evaporate the sea.

That was the Crozo family, and that was why Hephaestus said that Ciel would soon be able to make a magic sword.

The ancestors of the Crozo family were fed blood by fairy spirits, so they have the blood of fairy spirits. The reason why Crozo's magic sword is so powerful is because the blood of fairy spirits was added during its production.

With Crozo's magic sword, that clan became the great nobles of the Kingdom of Lakia, led by the God of War, and Crozo's magic sword became a weapon that destroyed everything on the battlefield. Even the homes of the elves were burned down.

The Crozo family was cursed by the fairies for the sins they committed with the magic sword they made, and since then they have lost the ability to make magic swords. So far, only one person has the [Demon Sword Bloodline] skill that can create the Crozo Demon Sword.

The Crozo family only has the blood of fairy spirits, and Farr is equivalent to the great fairy spirit of fire.

Ciel's confidence became stronger. Farr and Ciel were connected and fully understood Ciel's intentions.

So Far screamed, became bigger and flew to the side of the anvil, and spit out a ball of flame from his mouth and sprayed it on the solidified iron block.

Charles fixed the iron block with tongs, picked up a casting hammer and struck it.

The crisp sound kept ringing, and the iron block continued to deform during the knocking.

Farr on the side also kept spitting out flames in accordance with Ciel's rhythm, keeping the iron block in a state suitable for processing.

With Ciel's martial arts, controlling his own power is not a problem at all. Therefore, each hammer is extremely precise and has just the right amount of force.

The iron block continued to deform after the hammer fell, stretching into the shape of a short sword.

After all, it was the first time forging, so Ciel's movements became much more refined. The lines of the dagger blade also became more and more smooth, and soon it completely formed the appearance of a standard dagger.

Following Hephaestus' teachings, Ciel methodically subjected the completed sword blank to various heat treatments to make the sword body more flexible and the blade sharper and harder.

After a series of processes, the most important part of a dagger is completed. Next, just assemble the hilt and handguard, and a short sword suitable for low-level adventurers is completed.

Ciel held the completed sword blade in his hand and kept looking at the lines of the sword blade from all directions.

I don't know if it's because of the good rhythm of Ciel's crafting, or because of the flame provided by Farr, but when the angle of the sword changes, a special pattern like dragon scales will appear.

Ciel nodded with satisfaction, then handed the dagger in his hands to Hephaestus and said: "Lord God, this is my first work. Please take a look at its approximate level."

Hephaestus took the dagger and observed it just like Ciel did just now.

Even Hephaestus, the God of Forging, couldn't help but admire the perfect shape of Ciel's sword. Both the material processing and the later production were impeccable.

She especially admired the special patterns on the dagger, which not only looked good but also seemed to have some special purpose.

After thinking about it, Hephaestus walked to the forge with an unequipped dagger and swung the sword into the flames in the furnace.

The flames instantly dissipated, but the lines on the sword lit up as if it had been fully charged.

Hephaestus took out the dagger and waved it casually, and a ball of flame was wrapped around the blade.

This is an ability that equipment made using materials dropped from monsters or rare materials may not necessarily have.

Ciel instantly thought of the fairy cloth. The reason why the fairy cloth has special abilities is because it is woven by the fairy with its own magic power.

When making the dagger, Farr used his own flame to smelt the metal. Its magic power must have been incorporated into the steel, which gave it its special ability.

"Is it an equipment that can absorb flames and release it? It's hard to imagine that this can already be called a second-level equipment. Your talent in forging is really amazing."

Hephaestus's evaluation is definitely the most authoritative. This dagger made of ordinary steel can be regarded as high-end equipment.

In Orario, adventurers of different levels naturally use different weapons.

Novice adventurers at LV1 generally use weapons made of ordinary materials. On the one hand, these weapons are cheaper, and on the other hand, you don’t need such excellent weapons to deal with upper-level monsters.

The high-level adventurers use excellent equipment made from precious materials.

Only blacksmiths who are good enough can forge third-level equipment suitable for LV2 adventurers. Such blacksmiths are rare.

As for the second-level equipment suitable for LV3 and LV4 adventurers, it is quite rare on the market and basically needs to be customized.

There are very few blacksmiths in Orario who can forge first-level equipment. If you look carefully, there are only three or two people from the Guberniu Familia and the Hephaestus Familia.

In other words, the dagger made by Ciel is considered a rare equipment, or at least a golden legend.

The most important thing is that this short sword can be used by even low-level adventurers.

The weight of high-end equipment is not low. Not to mention the "big double-edged Ulga" of Loki's Familia Diona, even Ais's Sword of Despair cannot be used by low-level adventurers at will.

After all, the power of upper-level adventurers and lower-level adventurers are in two different dimensions.

But Ciel's short sword is different. Although it has special abilities, it is made of ordinary materials.

The most important thing is that the cost is not high, and Charles feels like he is going to make a fortune. Then, the decoration plan for your own forging workshop can be started.
