Originally, Seth wanted to use Olympian Speed on the body of the boots, but that had changed. The nature of had revealed itself upon completion of the boots, and it had changed again.
Apart from 50% to the power of skills and magic, it now offered the effect Subduer of Winds. The effect not only raised the power of wind elental attacks by 50%, but it also granted , the lower form of the ability of .
Even with both boots granting the effect, Seth guessed that Monique would be able to use sothing around at best. Its use in battle was ambiguous, but it would probably do well to increase her range of movent and support in aerial combat.
But the skill was not the reason he decided to change the enchantnt; it was the doubling of wind elental attacks. Instead of Speed, Seth chose Minor Olympian Wind, which was the Olympian version of an elental enchantnt. He had unlocked those at lv.3.
It could add wind elent to a weapon or increase the defense against it. What he hoped for by placing it on the boots was obvious. It wouldn't hurt Monique to have so non-spear-related lee attacks.
And... Who knew what synergies were possible with that? Maybe Seth lacked so sense of responsibility, and a more professional blacksmith would have chosen a more conservative combination, considering he was dealing with the special materials blessed by a great goddess.
Maybe there was a little more to the reason for his Blessing of Seth than just sharing the na. Although a synergy was an unstable outco to count on, it was not as mad as one may think. After all, Seth had done a lot to raise his production-related fortune, especially to deal with the . His chances of getting a good outco were never low.
Once the boots were enchanted, it was already late.
“You are back early today. How's Monique's armor going?” he was greeted by Mina when returning to their quarters. “You aren't slacking on her armor, are you?” Fin asked teasingly, since he was getting back ho early more often.
“Nothing like that, it's just that I wouldn't have gotten ho tonight at all if I had continued,” the blacksmith said with a laugh as he plopped down on the couch between the two and stole a handful of popcorn from the bowl Fin was holding onto, earning him a an glance from the fairy.
“What are we watching?” he asked, looking at the action flick running on the screen. He once again appreciated that Delta had not lost technology, unlike Y-City. When traveling and in Ora, he had spent most of his ti tirelessly grinding his skills, but now?
He would not know what to do in his free ti if he couldn't enjoy movies and video gas with Fin and Mina. Well, there was definitely sothing more fun the three could get up to, but none of them were nympho enough to do it in every waking minute they were together.
“You know, while you were having fun in the workshop, I and Fin also had so ideas,” the cat girl revealed to him after they sat on the couch together for a while.
“Oh, really, and what are you two up to?” Seth asked, prying his eyes from the TV and looking at her. Mina gave him a cheeky smile, while Fin had also looked up, grinning in anticipation, after emptying the popcorn bowl. For so reason, his heart started racing when he saw the two look at him like that.

“You know how Mike returned yesterday, right?” she asked. Seth nodded. Her brother, the Chosen of Maahes, had finally ended his quest and placed the gates in the Unclaid Mountains, which were ant to divert the threat of the cybernetic monsters by siphoning them off-world.
“...And Pip's birthday Party is in a couple of days,” Fin added, brimming with excitent. Seth nodded again. That was the reason he had prepared a staff together with Tored. Pip was going to co of age and be able to choose a class in the system.
It also ant that the ti for Seth to do good on his promise was drawing closer. What now felt like a long ti ago, he had promised Pip that he would help her return to New Hope and lend her the power to set the place straight.
He had compelled giants to protect the city, and in the anti, the fleet of Epsilon had also settled in New Hope for a while. The fleet had now settled in Little Epsilon after they joined Minas Mar in the wake of the Greta Tournant. That ant New Hope currently only had the giants and whatever defenses the fleet left behind.
“We think we should announce our engagent when everyone gathers for Pip's party,” Mina finally got to the point. Seth's heart stopped for a mont. It ca out of nowhere and surprised him; that was all. When the stupor wore off, he was actually happy that they had actively thought of when to announce it.
“But... wouldn't we steal Pip's lilight? It's her birthday. I feel like we would push ourselves in the foreground...” Seth voiced his only doubt. Taking away the attention from the birthday child who was coming of age seed unfair.
“No need to worry, I already talked about it with Pip!” Fin exclaid triumphantly.
“So Pip already knows about our engagent?” the blacksmith asked, puzzled and concerned. Of course, he trusted Pip, but she was also a Minor. Whether she could keep the secret seed...
“Of course not. I just told her that there was a very important personal announcent we three wanted to make and asked for her permission,” Fin elaborated her thoughtful sche. At this point, they were at the rcy of Pip's trustworthiness. Even a minor would get what that kind of announcent would be...
“There is more,” Mina quickly added, before he could completely recover from the series of surprises.
“What's next?” the bard asked, taking a deep breath to prepare himself.
“We thought it would be nice if we married before setting off for the Voracious Cloud Continent and have our honeymoon traveling in the exotic new land,” his fiancée revealed their second idea. Seth turned into a pillar of salt as his heart stopped for a disconcertingly long mont. Ŕ𝐀NОBĚš
If they wanted to marry before Minas Mar started their march against the continent, that ant they were going to marry within the next month, if nothing got in the way of the schedule. Although Seth had asked Mina to marry him and then asked Mina and Fin with the absolute intention to marry them, he had never really given it much thought. Not that he really had the ti to. Or maybe he had also distracted himself from it?
However, suddenly facing a certain date in the near future, he was... happy. Happy that they really wanted it, happy they wanted him to the point of asking for the ceremony just months after he asked them.
“Great, let's do it. But what are we doing about the ceremony? There's not much ti left to prepare sothing big, and do we need a priest of a certain god? Do you guys have any preferences?” the bard asked excitedly.
“You don't have to worry, we will take care of everything. You have to focus on making sure we can go on honeymoon on schedule,” Fin answered proudly, slapping her moderate chest.
“As for the priest, Simon will suffice, I think. You don't mind having a marriage under the system god, right?” Mina asked with a smile. Marriage under the system church was quite common for people in system worlds, who didn't explicitly follow any specific belief.
“ I have no divine preference. Then I will leave those preparations to you,” Seth said, a warm, fuzzy feeling filling his insides.
“Since we all agree, why don't we...celebrate a little?” Mina suddenly said seductively, pushing her soft body up against Seth. Although they didn't do it every waking minute, there was no reason not to do it as often as they wanted
Fin gave the movie a wistful look, but she wasn't going to be left behind.
