Deve shook Karl’s hand and then equipped the armour before he set out paynt on the worktable. Then, he headed out to go show his family his new equipnt. He would look for more pieces later, but for now, he had sothing to show off to his wife.
That left Karl and the new apprentices without supervision for the first ti, and he could really start training them. More than the simple examples that he had them working on while he did the illusions in the basent.
"Will we be able to do things like that one day?" Lala asked.
Karl smiled. "If you can’t, I would be disappointed. But I don’t expect that to be any ti soon. You’ve got learning to do, and so of those abilities won’t be available until you’re an Overlord or Totem.
So, you’ve got so ti, and we can start getting you on the basics that the Guild Alliance has been requesting.
I know that it’s a bit of a rapid transition, but we’ve got a thousand people clamouring for new items. The faster we can get through the first rush of requests, the better."
The bunny nodded. "That makes sense. Like when you do a deep clean of a house. You don’t start with the corners and closets, which need the most work, you start with the common areas and bedrooms so that they notice your work faster, then you do the hard parts when they’re in a good mood, so they can see you working hard at the difficult parts."
Karl chuckled. If you did the hard parts first, they would think you were lazy or incompetent. But if you did the easy parts first, they would have sothing to compare it to.
"Alright, since you’re Royal Rank, we will have you make items for the Warriors at the Overlord Rank. They’re the most requested items, and I’ve already ssaged the Drodh Guild House to let them know that I will be having you make the simple items, so they can focus on the more ornate ones.
You’re at the sa power level, for the most part. So of them are still Commanders, and most are Royals, just like your group. But they’re mostly sculptors who were trained in Runecrafting."
Karl created a chalkboard and drew a picture of a bracelet, then the runes for Skill Damage and Strength increase to the largest possible degree.
That was what would make the warriors happiest, and they could wear one on each arm. That ant they were going to need a huge number of them, but they didn’t have to be particularly decorative.
Then Karl drew a second bracelet and the runes for Self Repair and external focus. That would approximate the [nding] spell that the Clerics could use to fix gear.
"The second one is for you to keep for yourselves. It is used to patch damaged items and gear. Not as good as a professional, but it will keep them together well enough. You don’t need it today, but you will soon. Once you have one, you’re on the Warrior Bracelets.
Royal Rank equipnt is low for Overlords, but with this set of runes for skill damage and stacking strength, it should co out as an Epic item, and that will make the bonus enough that they will take it anyhow." He explained.
Then, Tian created a whole pile of silver bracelets in the middle of the table for everyone to pick from.
In theory, Karl could let them do the writing, and then upgrade the items himself, as the tal was capable of holding Totem Ranked enchantnts. But that was a higher price point than what the Overlords could easily afford.
"What are these directions?" One of the Dragonkin asked.
"The stroke order. Instead of having soone show you directly, the number and arrow tell you the order."
He smiled as he understood, then began to carve the tal to begin his first attempt.
Then, Karl turned to Ophelia, who had her arms around Lotus to keep her from interfering with their work.
"Why don’t we have Remi help everyone past the bottleneck today? Then we can find out about the Overlord Ranked Dungeons and let you all get so battle experience a Rank ahead?" He suggested.
Nachtia frowned. She was still too close to the start of Overlord for this to be likely to work for her, but she wanted the potion anyhow.
Just in case she could be a Totem already.
Remi ca out with a whole tray of potions that had everyone’s nas on them, as well as a pair of activated healing Totems.
Just in case.
Dana stared suspiciously at the tray. She had not forgotten how this went for her, but she couldn’t be sure that this wasn’t the sa potion, as she had been half awake and hadn’t really examined it.
{I’m sure that this version is fixed. Definitely more gentle than version Dana. No worse than a mana flush from the shrine at the Guild House.} Remi promised.
The major difference was that a mana flush was voluntary, and you could stop it if it got too intense. But the potion ca with the advantage that it would help train your body in more powerful mana, instead of having to understand it in advance, as was needed to break through with a mana flush.
Ophelia patted the little cleric. "I say we have Lotus go first, in case sothing goes wrong with the rest of us. She’s the only one who can resurrect, but we’ve got more healers ready for her."
Tian stood up and fluffed his tail, making the workers laugh.
But Lotus had faith in him. The little fox had incredible healing skills.
"Alright, let’s get this going." Lotus decided, then grabbed her own potion off the tray and downed it in one long gulp.
"Good volu, questionable flavour. Tastes too much like herbal dicine." Lotus noted with a bitter look on her face.
Remi shrugged. There was nothing she could do about that. Added ingredients would alter the potion’s effects.
Then Lotus surged with gentle power, and began to glow green and gold.
That was new.
