Chapter 591 – Relationship of Giving and Receiving (1)

Her Areum was so excited by her alloy comment that she held her and danced around the inside of her workshop for a while.

She shouted at me with her face red and immediately gave me additional explanation about mithril alloy.

Precisely what minerals are needed to make it into an alloy.

“To sum it up, there are only two things that can be made with this mithril.”

“Huh?”

“Oriharkon. Either that or adamantium. “These two are the only materials that can be used as alloys.”

“Oriharkon… Adamantium…”

“I can get the catalysts and other additional materials needed for alloying, but… I can’t do this because I can’t get it myself. “Oppa, you have to find it yourself.”

“Where can I get it?” .”

“How do I know that? I don’t know because most of the things that are wandering around are the first dungeon raids and pop up like beans in a drought. “It’s not the type of thing I can get in the first place.”

“…”

“… “That’s why I told you to listen to what people say.”

Orichalcon, or Adamantium.

I felt like I was becoming more and more confused by the unfamiliar names of minerals that seemed to drive me crazy just hearing them.

Mithril itself is at a level I’ve never seen before, except for the mithril greatsword I was using, so where on earth can I get something like this legendary mineral?

At least, I didn’t remember finding it in the point stores I looked around. If it were there in the first place, it would make no sense at all.

There was no way I would forget such an impressive mineral once I saw it, and in fact, it meant that it would be difficult to immediately obtain it through indirect means such as a point shop.

“If I get either Orichalcon or Adamantium, can I make the alloy itself?”

“Well, really? “These are very precious items, so I’ve only seen adamantium handled once about 20 to 30 years ago, but I know roughly how to handle it, so there’s no problem.”

“Okay, then. First of all, thank you for letting me know.”

After listening to it all, I realized that it wasn’t something to be excited about, but it was enough because I was able to see the hope of saving my old memories.

Moreover, I received an answer that Areum could make it as long as I had the ingredients, so this is enough.

It was entirely up to me to obtain Orichalcon and Adamantium, which were legendary minerals. I don’t know when that will happen.

So for now, I had no choice but to put the mithril greatsword (what it used to be) in one side of my subspace pocket and wait for the time to use it again.

In the end, it was decided that I would buy a Damascus steel greatsword that I had borrowed from Areum for a brief performance test to replace the mithril greatsword.

It’s similar in size and weight to a mithril greatsword, and I’ve wielded it a few times.

From my custom weapon to the repair of my mithril greatsword. First of all, the information regarding weapons has been roughly concluded.

From now on, it was time to talk with Areum the Hunter, not Areum the Blacksmith.

Now that she has confirmed that she has rational feelings for me, I felt like it would be a shame to break up with Areum like usual without any incident.

“Oppa, I bought a new greatsword, so is all your business done? Well, I have to go to work now! “Be careful going in!”

“Areum.”

“Oh, is there still some business left to do…? ?”

“I don’t have anything left to do, but can I ask you a favor?”

“Boo, please?”

“If you’re going to work from now on, can I watch Areum work from the side?”

“Ugh?!”

As soon as I told her that I wanted to watch Areum work to give me an excuse to be with her a little longer, she couldn’t hide her embarrassment.

I wondered if he was reacting that way because it was rude for Areum to watch the blacksmith work from the side, but fortunately, after listening to what he said next, it didn’t seem like that was the reason.

“My, my work… It wouldn’t be very fun for you to see…”

“I still want to see you, can’t I?”

“Oh, no… There’s nothing that can’t be done…”

“Then, can I see it?”

“Fuck, usually you just leave as soon as you finish your business, but today you’re sticking to me like sticky stuff…” ?”

… Well, until now, most of the times I met Areum, we parted ways that way.

That’s because, until now, I had never thought that Areum had rational feelings for me.

Because of her circumstances, all the times I’ve met her up until now, I’ve been wearing a mask of her unknown identity, and until this morning, Areum must have completely recognized me as a woman.

On the contrary, it is surprising in many ways that even though he recognized me as a woman, he felt rational feelings for me and even put my name on the sexual fetish.

I had already built a relationship with Areum several times as a weapon craftsman and as a customer, and we became close as we took care of each other.

Maybe, I didn’t know it was possible.

Today, she even crosses the barriers between men and women in her many meanings.

“Why is it sticking to you like sticky material? I was just curious to see Areum working.”

“Well, that’s right…”

“And today, for some reason, I feel like I want to spend a little longer with Areum.”

“Huh?! “Now, stop saying weird things!”

I found Areum’s face to be embarrassed and blushing at every small expression of affection very endearing.

Of course, this does not mean that the usual Areum I have seen so far is not particularly cute.

I also had quite a few rational feelings for her, but I had no choice but to express them because she was hiding her identity as her man. In fact, it was not only Areum who had rational desires hidden in her heart, but also me.

In fact, she was worried that revealing to her today that I was her man might ruin their relationship, but thankfully that didn’t happen.

On the contrary, I was already half-convinced that it would be an opportunity for Areum and I to become closer.

“So, can’t I see it?”

“… Are you following me behind the workshop? It might not be much fun, but I really want to see it, so I have no choice but to show it…”

“Huh. Thank you, Areum.”

Actually, what I wanted to see was the Areum on the other side more than the Areum working in the workshop.

Silently suppressing the desire in her heart, I followed her and entered the workshop again.

In order for Areum to have more sexual feelings towards me, she also had to check the contents of her ‘sexual desire fetish’.

“If you want to watch me work, you should watch from afar. “If you get too close, sparks will fly and it’s dangerous.”

“Oh, yes.”

“I told you before… “It won’t be much fun.”

“Doesn’t care. “I just want to see Areum working hard.”

“…”

Areum quietly turns on the power to the furnace, blushing at the words she said in a secret way.

Perhaps because it was a modern furnace, it caught fire and the temperature rose in an instant.

As soon as the furnace temperature rose, chunks of metal from large black crucibles began to be pushed one by one into the heated furnace.

To a non-expert, it looked like a mixture of minerals that all looked similar, but Areum was carefully combining the contents in the bottle during the process, so I watched Areum doing the preliminary work a little longer.

About ten minutes later, she took out the first crucible and poured its contents into the casting mound.

-Chieeeeek.

“…”

It was hard to see his expression clearly because of the face shield, but it was clear that he was concentrating hard.

After first solidifying the molten metal in her pile of dirt, she immediately picked up large tongs and picked up a lump of metal that had not yet cooled down.

With her other hand, she lifted a rather large hammer and prepared to strike.

Definitely, now I’m starting to get the image of a blacksmith that I’ve always had in mind.

As I was quietly watching Areum’s work with that thought in mind, her huge hammer struck the cooled molten iron.

Immediately, a firm yet cheerful sound began to echo throughout the workshop.

-Cow!

“…”

-Cow! Kang! Cough!

As she begins to work in earnest, she strikes down the hammer with concentration and begins to create an object in the shape of a weapon.

Perhaps because he struck down with his awakening ability, the thick iron lump flattened and began to take its shape after just a few impacts.

Although the appearance of the iron block starting to change little by little was quite interesting in itself, there was something else that caught my attention even more.

-Rumbling.

“…”

– Sloshing, sloshing.

“…”

Areum’s chest moves with the recoil every time a hammer is struck from above.

It was already a huge chest with destructive power, but the two huge masses were moving up and down.

Even if you didn’t necessarily pay attention to it, it was inevitable that your eyes would wander away.

Areum herself said that it wouldn’t be much fun to just watch.

At least from my perspective as a man, it was by no means an uninteresting sight.
