Silence.
Silence filled the entirety of Tristan's body as he read through the description of the item Valyr had given him, being a tal glove that had the Sand Serpent Fangs as protrusions on its knuckles. Under the rays of the sun, the tal glove had a faint orange-red sheen to it, mostly due to the Blazefield Stone embedded in the center.
Nevertheless, even though the tal glove was aesthetically pleasing to look at, Tristan's attention still remained fixated on the screen filled with text before him, his expression wide-eyed as it took a while for his expression to return to normal.
"Rare …" Tristan muttered in shock as he closed the small screen in front of his field of vision, shifting his gaze onto the young man that had just forged the tal glove he was holding. "You… you really made this…"
"I may have only been away from the village for over a month, but I've honed my forging skills a lot since then." Valyr looked at his good friend, inwardly feeling great delight over the shock that was incredibly visible on the man's face. "I've definitely picked up a lot of skills along the way."
"I can definitely see that…" Taking so ti to get over the shock the piece of equipnt Valyr had given to him, Tristan took in a deep breath as the gears in his mind turned. Not long after, a faint light glinted his eyes as he posed a question to Valyr. "Mind if you teach a thing or two on how you forged this tal glove?"
"I thought you didn't believe in the fact I have the ability to forge high rarity equipnt?" Though he did not really mind teaching the one who had allowed him to trek the path of blacksmithing once more a couple of things, Valyr thought that now was the best choice to rub salt in an open wound, evident by the bitter smile on Tristan's face once he heard what the forr said.
"I an… I did have an idea back then you were sothing else." Tristan wryly chuckled. "After all, you could forge Common grade equipnt without much problem even though you've only been forging stuff for a month at that ti."
"Who knew it would continue to snowball from there?" The bitter smile on Tristan's face slightly widened.
Responding to Tristan's words with a bitter smile of his own, Valyr briefly scratched the back of his head before letting out a faint sigh, asking the forr to give the tal glove back to him. "Who knew, indeed."
"Anyways, even though I don't really mind teaching you a bit of what I learned after I left the village, the monster tide is coming up in a few days, so how about we talk about it after the tide?"
"Fine by ." In response to Valyr's words, Tristan shrugged his shoulders. "Either way, you're helping out here since you're giving a shot at finally being able to craft a piece of Rare grade equipnt."
"Says the one who allowed to walk the path of blacksmithing in the first place," said Valyr in response, causing Tristan to let out a faint chuckle not long after. "You really haven't made a piece of Rare grade equipnt yet?"
"Not even once." Tristan shook his head. "The best I've done was a piece of equipnt rated at Uncommon grade, and that item would be the tal knuckles I forged."
"Speaking of which, I should thank you for giving the idea to forge a pair of tal knuckles," Tristan added to his statent soon after. "Because of it, I was able to finally clear a dungeon I've been wanting to clear for a long ti already."
"Is that so?" Hearing Tristan thank him, a grin gradually crept up onto Valyr's lips as he looked at the tal glove he had forged. Recalling the other reason why he had forged the tal glove in the first place, the grin on his face turned into a smirk as he returned to the anvil.
"Give a second."
"Hmm?" Seeing as Valyr returned to the anvil with the tal glove, watching as the young man started to hamr out the small imperfections on it, Tristan raised his eyebrow in curiosity as he decided to ask Valyr a question. "What are you doing?"
"Just a few modifications to the glove," said Valyr in response. "You'll see."
"Take your ti, I guess." At those words, Tristan shrugged his shoulders as he watched Valyr hamr the tal glove nonstop, watching as the faint imperfections on the tal glove's surface gradually disappear with every swing.
Not long after, he felt as if the aura being emanated by the glove gradually grew stronger with every consecutive swing, at so point even sensing that the imdiate surroundings felt a bit warr than it normally did.
Eventually, Valyr placed the hamr to the side, prompting Tristan to think that the man was finished with his modifications. However, just as he was about to move closer to take a better look at the improved tal glove, the forr started to infuse his own mana into the tal glove, causing the latter to take a few steps back as he felt a deeper part of the glove awaken in response to the infusion.
Shaking his head a couple tis as he felt the mana he had infused into the glove not doing its job properly, Valyr continued to infuse more and more mana into it, using [True Prodigious Equipnt Attribute Awakening] quite a lot on the tal glove to get an attribute awakening that t his standards. Fortunately, by the ti he had spent around a thousand points of his mana into the glove, he had finally gotten the awakening he wanted, quickly identifying it with [Analysis] before giving it to Tristan.
"Here you go. Take a look."
"This…" Grabbing the tal glove once more, Tristan went ahead and used [Analysis] on it to see what kind of modifications Valyr had done to it, only to be left at a loss for words once again.
Ding!
