- Is It Wrong To Try A New Start In Another World With A Dungeon
- Chapter 28 Ch 27
The weekend has arrived.
I and Haru decided to take today and tomorrow as a day off from the dungeon.
The reason is obviously my level up.
Actually, there isn’t too much to do in a day off in this world.
I’ll probably stick around my nose where I can to attract any possible member of the familia.
I think it is best for us to welcome a new member that is young and it is not already a member of another familia…
The reasons are 2. First, we can ‘cultivate’ new generations and make them grow to have future promising youths, and second, there isn’t anyone that would want to enter a newly formed familia like ours…
Well, as I have different productive type skills, it will be very good to nurture children to make them alchemists or blacksmiths…
But it’s not like there are so many adventurers that would take that route, as the dungeon is a very profitable business.
Haruhime: Oh, Jean, good morning. Have we not decided to take a day off?
Jean. Good morning. Yeah, but I woke up early today, so I am preparing an abundant breakfast for us.
Haruhime: I’ll help.
Jean: Thank you.
And so we decided to cook, and after a bit…
Shiva: *yawn*. Good… morning…
Jean: Good morning, my lovely limp goddess.
Shiva: Oh, by the way… Yesterday I found a blacksmith that can teach you…
Jean: Who, when, and where?
Shiva: Hephaestus of the Hephaestus Familia…*yawn*, she promised to encounter you today at the 9 o’clock at her personal forge… by the way, what time is it?
Haruhime: E-Eight and a half…
The atmosphere froze…
Jean: Fuck! It’s practically right now!
Jean: Forget breakfast, I’ll run here. See you later guys! Don’t worry about me, I’ll pick somewhat in the streets… bye!
The distance between here and her forge it isn’t too much… If I run, I’ll probably make in time!
—————————————————————————————————————
*pant pant*
…I made it in time…
Now I am in front of the main gate of her residence…
Guard: Halt! Who are you? Why you’ve come here?
Jean: …I am here regarding a special matter with the goddess Hephaistos… I am not sure it is like that, but didn’t she talk about a young blacksmith coming today?
Guard: Oh! Actually, she discussed that yesterday… so you are Jean Greenlight from the Shiva Familia…
Eh? Is Shiva really that famous?
And yet she had a problem with forming a familia…?
Guard: Hahaha, you might be young and only a new member from her familia, but you might not know about her hardworking personality. She worked with the Ganesha familia, but actually, her presence in different negotiations made them a little more ‘easy’.
Jean: Eh… what amazing goddess I encountered…
Guard: Hahaha, she is respected by different people from Orario, but now you have to enter, don’t you?
Jean: Thank you very much.
I made my way in the residence, where the guard pointed me…
*knock knock*
???: Please enter.
I entered the wooden door and to welcome me there was a red-haired beauty with an eyepatch in her right eye.
Hephaestus, the Divine Smith.
Hephaestus: Hoho, so you are Jean… Shiva told me about you… you seem really ‘special’…
Jean: I don’t know about the ‘special’ part, but I am sure that I am not certain your average adventurer…
Hephaestus: Let’s stop the chitchat, you are here only because of the needs of an experienced blacksmith and I am interested in the next generation of smiths.
She got un and picked up a book, that triggered a secret passage behind the bookshelf… the one that goes toward her personal forge…
Hephaestus: Follow me.
—————————————————————————————————————
Her personal forge is not too big, and I think that it actually has a good balance, without any wasteful expenditure of space.
Hephaestus: So, Jean, normally I would have started by creating a weapon, but I know that you have at least a bit of knowledge here so I won’t stand in your way as you forge a weapon… Give it your best shot, because I’ll decide if you are worth of ‘cultivate’…
Jean: Ok.
So I took out a mithril ingot from the Store and started heating up with my .
I saw Hephaestus with her mouth agape, shocked by what happened in only 5 seconds…
The exact reaction I wanted…
Hephaestus: …what… what was… that…?
Jean: Oh, nothing too important… storage magic and fire magic.
Jean: Can I continue?
She weakly nodded and I continued to work on the weapon…
After three hours I completed a simple dagger…
Actually, I think that is the best weapon I could make with materials not too much expensive, and that doesn’t require too much time.
After observing it for a bit, Hephaestus put it on the table and sighted a bit.
Hephaestus: What delusion… I could obtain a new promising youth in my familia…
Hephaestus: You are a one in a million for your talent in blacksmithing and I never saw a youth like you before. I think that in the span of years you’ll become a great smith…
Jean: Thank you. If it is possible I want to make a request.
Hephaestus: Sure, go ahead.
Jean: Actually I know a lot about smithing ‘theoretically’, but I lack the ‘dexterity’ part, so if it’s possible I want to observe your works, if possible.
Jean: I know that may sound a bit selfish, but I really need a right ‘teacher’… There’s also the possibility of spectating as you make the equipment needed for your order…
She placed her hand under her chin, thinking for a bit, and accepting my request with a bit requests under her part.
Now, in the future, if I want to sell my products, I’ll sell them in a shop of her familia, and give them 5% of the sales.
The positive part is that now I have a connection with a beautiful goddess that has a lot of influence, and I’ll personally assist her skills.
