Finding out from Arcaelus that there was still one and a half days before ti was up, Valyr took in a few deep breaths as he looked at the round tal shield he had placed on the anvil.
In many ways, the shield he had forged during the Trial of Four Rarities would catch the attention of many people, obtaining a pretty penny especially with how everyone was preparing for war in the outside world.
However, considering that he had brought the shield out just to prepare himself for his true motive, the young man let out a long and drawn-out sigh as his mana arms began to move.
"[Breath of Calm]."
Saving the Hamr of Beginnings' ultimate skill for what he planned on doing later, Valyr began to will his arms to dismantle the shield into its constituent parts.
At the sa ti, he took a look at the list of materials the material cache had to offer, his eyes eventually landing on a few that he felt would harmonize well.
Stoking the flas within the furnace by infusing it with a bit of his mana, it did not take long for him to chuck all of the items he had chosen into it.
Waiting for the items to reach their optimal forging temperature, Valyr then returned his attention to the shield on the anvil, the mana arms having already dismantled the shield into its separate parts.
Moving the parts that did not need to be upgraded to the side, the young man looked at the remaining parts for a bit before deciding to chuck them into the furnace as well.
Though, unlike the other items he had thrown into the furnace earlier, the young man only placed them in the furnace for a while to heat up.
After that, he took them out before using his mana arms to prepare the parts for the upgrade.
"I guess I could upgrade the size of the shield sowhat," muttered the man to himself as he briefly glanced at the furnace.
"Though, if I were to do that, that would reduce the advantage a round shield has over other shields."
"Eh. I'll keep it the sa size, then."
Making up his mind on how he would approach his upgrade to the shield, Valyr soon took out the items he had chucked into the furnace, placing them on top of the prepared shield parts.
Hiss!
Hearing a bit of sizzling from the anvil as the items made contact with the shield parts, the young man did not waste any ti as he began to incorporate the two together.
With three pairs of arms working in tandem, it only took a few trips to the furnace for the two to form a greater whole.
After that, he placed the entire item into the furnace a few more tis, removing the imperfections that had appeared during the combining process.
Once he had made sure that he had removed all of the imperfections he could see, it was only then did he activate [Hunter's Tracking Eyes] and [True Prodigious Blacksmith's Sight], making sure that there was no dissonance to the elents making up the shield.
Little by little, the upgraded shield ca to form, the aura it radiated sowhat surprising Arcaelus amidst his brief glances.
Eventually, by the ti the dawn of the fourth day had arrived, the young man had reattached all of the parts together, giving rise to a shield far better than the one he had started with.
Ding!

[Thanks to this change, the na of the weapon has been changed by the blacksmith to 'Gray Fortress'.]
Reading through the notifications he had received after the shield's successful upgrade, Valyr faintly smiled as he began to wave the shield around.
Feeling that the shield had improved in many areas its previous version was lacking in, the smile on Valyr's face grew wider as he identified it with [Superior Analysis].
Ding!
