Soti later, the five players left the smithy with smiles on their faces, with most of them already equipping the items that they obtained from the smithy at no cost. However, there was one out of the five with a wider smile compared to the rest, even though he had none of the new equipnt equipped whatsoever.
Waving at the five goodbye as he thanked them for their help in procuring the materials he needed, Valyr eventually returned his attention back to what he was doing, picking up the hamr once more to continue hamring down the imperfections on the armor piece he was forging.
Though, just as he had activated the hyperfocus ability from [Gambler's Discerning Eyes] to aid him in this process, Valyr noticed Wells moved closer to him, prompting him to stop what he was doing before turning around to look at the latter with a raised eyebrow.
"I was already curious when you gave those five a task to collect a few materials for you yesterday. But even though I've finally seen the materials they've collected in person, I still have no clue what those materials are." Wells looked at Valyr with a slightly puzzled expression.
"Of course, I won't ask you on what they are since I could find that out right now with a quick [Analysis]. Instead, what I want to know is… what are you planning to do with the materials they got you?" As this question escaped out of Wells' mouth, a light smirk appeared on Valyr's face as he let out a chuckle not long after.
"Well, it's not really anything special. Those materials I had them collect for make up part of sothing, a certain sothing I should have forged for myself a long ti ago, actually." Saying those words, Valyr grabbed one of the armor pieces he had forged beside the anvil, deciding to give the vambraces for Wells to look at.
Receiving the vambraces, Wells instantly took note of its design, feeling that Valyr had given it a lot of thought, even though it was simplistic in appearance. With its color being a dull ash gray, the vambraces glistened under the light of the sun, glimring a faint red under certain angles.
Aside from that, Wells got the feeling that there was an entity slumbering within the vambraces, seemingly waiting for the other pieces of the armor to be forged and worn before it would awaken.
Curious as to why he had gotten this feeling, Wells went ahead and used [Analysis] on the vambraces, causing his pupils to shrink in shock as his mouth went agape, looking at Valyr with incredulity written all over his face.
Seeing Wells' reaction, Valyr could only laugh as he retrieved the vambraces from Wells' hands before placing it beside the other pieces of armor he had finished forging. "Well, other than the fact that I should have forged sothing like this a long ti ago, there's also a chance that those guys from the emporium will get revenge on in the future, which is the other reason why I'm forging this."
"In any case, does this answer your question?"
In response to Valyr's question, Wells could only stare at Valyr for a short while, as if he was looking at a monster straight in the eyes. Then, after taking in a deep breath, he turned around and headed back to the entrance of the smithy before closing his eyes, activating [Technique Introspection] soti later.
Letting out a brief cackle in response to Wells' actions, Valyr returned his attention to the armor piece he was currently forging, activating the hyperfocus ability of [Gambler's Discerning Eyes] before proceeding to continue working once more.
"Since you didn't answer my question…"
"I'll just take that as a yes."
…
Whilst Valyr and Wells were in the middle of closing up shop, the forr received a ssage from Tryndall through the chat function, reminding him that they were going to et up around an hour or two from now. With that, Valyr slightly hastened his movents, prompting Wells to stop what he was doing for a bit to look at Valyr in slight confusion, only to shrug his shoulders before continuing to do what he was doing soon after.
Soti later, after telling Wells that he wouldn't be joining him later when he ate dinner, Valyr made his way to the bathroom and took a quick shower, changing into a set of dark clothing before tying the dark fabric he had bought back then around his face.
Taking a brief glance outside the window to check if the sun had already set or not, Valyr then made his way to the workshop portion of the smithy, retrieving the saber he had forged according to the specifications and modifications Tryndall had given him.
Wanting to make sure that he had gotten Tryndall's saber, considering that he had forged a few more sabers thanks to other custom orders, Valyr went ahead and activated [Analysis] on the saber he retrieved, lightly nodding after he was finished skimming through its description screen.
