[Active Skills]
[Blood Magic: Mastery (869/1000)]
[Archery: Expertise (264/2000)]
[Swordsmanship: Expertise (1311/2000)]
[Basic Alchemy - tal: Apprenticeship (86/100)]
[Puppet Manipulation Skill: Mastery (152/1000)]
Looking at this skill list, Blood Magic has improved significantly due to the intense battles over the past few days.
With so late-ga skill ideas in mind, a bit more training should lead to reaching the level of expertise.
Archery has barely improved.
However, Swordsmanship has improved a little, although Kana frequently accumulates active usage mainly through this skill.
The increase isn’t substantial because his level has already reached expertise, making further improvent through training nearly impossible.
Even intense battles are unlikely to bring significant improvent.
Only through guidance from the strong, clashes with such individuals, or so sort of genius insight can swift improvent occur.
For regular people without a skill system, mastery is their lifeti limit.
For the gifted, if without a skill system, expertise is their lifeti limit.
As for geniuses, it depends on how truly gifted they are.
With a skill system, training ensures reaching expertise as the absolute limit, while progressing beyond that becos extrely difficult.
After sorting through his current status, Kana was ready to take a good rest.
That’s when the door was knocked.
Kana slightly bowed his head, walked over to open the door, and saw Lurik standing outside with a sword in his hand.
"Co, take this. It’s your trophy, a weapon you deserve.
It should be the sword of a Mountain Warrior, and you are worthy of having it."
The sword he held was the Warrior’s Sword that Kana used in the battle against Rita Enke earlier.
He didn’t expect to own this sword, given its apparent value and belonging to the Gray Mountain Dwarves.
He truly hadn’t thought the dwarves would give him this sword.
Kana solemnly accepted the sword from his hand; honestly, he was quite envious.
It’s definitely one of the top-tier weapons among those at the Magic level.
"You’ve helped us a lot; do you need any assistance we can provide?
We dwarves always repay kindness, so don’t hesitate."
Lurik watched Kana take the sword and then spoke, clearly not considering the sword as compensation.
He felt the sword should count as Kana’s trophy, a reward he deserved.
Kana was slightly stunned, not expecting such generosity. Having gained so much experience and acquired a perfectly fitting weapon for the current stage, he was already content.
However, he didn’t expect the dwarves to offer more compensation, and Kana didn’t hold back, for he truly needed so help.
After so thought, he walked over to the bed and fetched the Prince’s Sword.
Handed it to Lurik.
Lurik took the sword and looked at it, montarily unsure what to say.
After a long pause, he said, "It’s a very beautiful sword."
Because in his view, the sword really only has this one advantage.
Kana laughed; without datafication, this sword wouldn’t be of much use in real battles.
"I’ve heard that the Sage of Gray Mountain is a highly skilled and powerful Rune Blacksmith?"
Upon hearing this, Lurik smiled proudly, slightly puffing out his chest.
An exceptional blacksmith is a highly respected profession in any dwarf tribe.
"That’s correct." He wasn’t modest at all. Dwarves don’t understand what modesty ans.
"You know, our country is facing a crisis, and the enemy is a new race afraid of Silver Weapons.
Therefore, I hope you can plate this sword with silver and apply so rune enhancents."
Upon hearing this, Lurik furrowed his brows while looking at the sword, yet said, "I believe you, as a warrior, would know this sword is a Decorative Sword."
"Trust , it will be a good weapon in my hands."
"Alright, in wielding weapons, I surely can’t compare with you, so leave it to .
Oh, there will be a feast tomorrow; please be sure to stay. I will apply the magic runes before the feast ends."
This ti Kana didn’t refuse, nodding his head.
He needed rest.
...
The morning sunlight shone upon Riverbend Town.
Compared to when Kana and the others left, the warm atmosphere seed absent from the town.
A tense atmosphere pervaded the town.
Even though it’s early morning.
Various supplies were already being transported, and the guards stationed in the town also started getting busy early.
Even the usually lively children in town were barely seen today.
"My warrior, please make sure to return triumphant."
A woman looked at her husband with a worried expression.
After speaking, she couldn’t help but adjust the armor on him.
The soldier hugged his wife lightly: "Don’t worry, the Count needs us. I also need to protect you all properly."
His wife still appeared worried but only nodded without saying more.
War is not far from them.
"Little rascal, make sure to listen to your mom. If I hear you causing trouble when I return, I’ll spank your butt to four pieces, got it!"
