Chapter 89: Selling the Swords that I forged.
It seemed I was exposed to the beginner's luck curse, as the next few attempts ended in failure, with only one sword ending up being a white grade. I tried to take a break and revise my steps again, but Nada helped me out of my dilemma when she said:
"Your failure came from the cleansing process, you need to raise the total percentage of your cleansing to have better results."
I had to agree with her, as I did everything else right, and I couldn't spot any mistakes. I sighed, as this was something I couldn't fix on my own right now, so I only accepted that very low success rate.
By these failures, my stock of my liquefied mix was depleted, so I consumed some time making another one, then I started making swords again. this time, I didn't wait for the sword to cool, as I asked Nada for other molds, and she gladly gave me another two.
After some failures, I started to score success, but it was really frustrating, as I only succeeded in one sword out of ten, that was a pretty low rate. I gritted my teeth and tried to follow Nada's advice, as she said when she noticed my frustration:
"Don't be distracted by these statistics, as it will do any good. Just focus on finishing the current sword and begin the next, don't forget you have limited time here."
Actually I felt some regret of having a short time here, although I wasn't enthusiastic at all when I started learning. It seemed I liked this class, and I loved the challenge it brought, especially that moment when I waited for the result of my creation.
I listened to her advice like a good girl and immersed myself for the subsequent hours making swords. When the six hours finished, I had already made ten silver grade swords, fifteen bronze grade swords, and twenty one white grade swords.
My arsenal expanded suddenly with these swords, and my future wealth too, and above all, I had gained one level here and hit level 14 finally.
Although my first sword gave me 10% XP, the next silver grade swords only gave me 5% XP, and bronze grade swords gave me 2% XP. As for trash swords, I didn't get any XP from them.
"Your time is up, it was fun guiding you. I hope you don't slack and try to come back here often."
I also felt the same way learning blacksmith with Nada, so I asked:
"When I come here again, will you be here?"
"Well, honey I have my daily work to do, but if you want me with you then you can ask at the reception to be assigned to me if I'm available," she replied warmly. I really liked her.
"Ok, I will do that every time," I replied.
"That would be nice, so are you going to keep all these swords? Or you will sell part of them?" she asked suddenly.
"I want to sell most of them except for the first sword I ever made," I honestly replied.
"Good, I can buy all of them from you," she said, "the white grade swords will be one gold coin each, bronze grade swords will be three gold coins each, and silver grade swords worth five gold coins each. How many swords do you intend to sell to me?" she offered.
What she offered exceeded my expectations, but I rather asked her about another matter,
"Can I sell my equipment to you here? And how will I send them to you?"
Heard her laugh, then she said:
"Yes, indeed you can sell them to me, on the condition that I like your work. You can leave them down at the reception and I will inform them to pay you the amount needed. How many of them do you intend to sell?"
I didn't hesitate as I replied at once:
"I will sell nine silver grade swords, fifteen bronze grade swords, and twenty one white grade swords."
"Hahaha, that's literally all of your swords except for the first sword you made, do you intend to keep it as a souvenir?" she asked with a happy tone.
"Yes, I intend to keep it inside my personal warehouse in the town here," I replied simply.
"Good, I like you even more. Good blacksmiths make great equipment, but those who appreciate some moments in their lives are worthy of my praise. Keep the hard work honey, I already informed the reception about our deal. Good luck," she said.
Although her words seemed casual, I felt they weren't that simple. I just kept them in my mind for later, and then the screen turned off. It was time for me to leave here.
If it was up to me, then I would have chosen to keep working here, no noise or that chaos created by players, I can level up rapidly, and I also will create cool equipment that would grant me huge wealth.
However, I have to check upon my team; after all I left them for eight hours, who knew what might happen in this long time.
I put back every tool here in their previous places, then I moved rapidly heading back to the reception. When I reached there, I found the same NPC who met me at first when I entered here. I recalled what happened before, and felt how funny that was.
"Hi Lary, I have finished using the studio," I greeted him first. He smiled to me as he replied:
"Hi there, you have gained the favor of Lady Nada in your first day here, you are really lucky."
I felt surprised by the way he called Nada with, as in my home that title was given to those who either head on the noble families, or very rich or powerful in the kingdom. For a blacksmith to be called like that, it meant she wasn't just anybody like I thought.
It would be best for me to stick around with her from now then. I took out the swords that I made and gave them to Lary, who received him with a wider smile while saying:
"Lady Nada had already informed me about the deal, so here is the payment from her; also she left you a present too."
I received a small bag that produced a metallic sound coming from the gold coins hitting each other in it. I looked towards the mysterious Lary as I asked with a giggle, as I was a girl after all, and girls loved presents, especially the surprise type of them.
"What present?"
