Chapter 0047: Blacksmith Lv.5!

Bright sunlight streamed into Yami's bedroom through the window.

Feeling the faint warm light, Yami woke up from his sleep.

"It's been a long time since I slept so comfortably."

Even though he only came back in the middle of the night last night, and a lot of time had passed in communicating with Hephaestus, the increase in strength made Yami less dependent on sleep than before.

In addition to granting amazing physical strength, Constant breathing significantly increased recovery.

Simply put, Yami only needed to rest for four to six hours to recover his exhausted physical strength and energy.

Tsubaki didn't come to kick the door today, which made him feel very relieved.

Sitting up from the bed, he looked out at the window. The courtyard was as empty as ever, and there were few figures. None of the members of Hephaestus's familia seemed to have returned from the dungeon.

But thinking about it, there were not many people with talent in the familia, and he was not the only one who knew how to work hard.

In addition to the blacksmith shop on West Street, the Hephaestus familia also owned property in the Babel Tower, and most of the members gathered there.

Therefore, it was normal to not see too many people here.

"After a simple wash, I'll find Tsubaki. I don't want the door that was repaired the second time to be damaged the third time. If this continues, I will definitely suffer from a nervous breakdown."

Looking at his poor door, Yami didn't know what to say.

Hephaestus's familia's captain was more 'maniac' than he imagined.

If Tsubaki kicked down his door like this again, Yami would seriously consider whether to move out. 

 …

Yami skillfully came to Tsubaki's room and knocked lightly on the door.

"The door is unlocked. Come in."

Tsubaki's voice came from inside the room.

Yami turned the doorknob, and the scorching heat rushed over his face instantly. It was obvious that Tsubaki had already woken up and devoted herself to forging.

As for why she didn't come to call him, that was not clear.

Passing through the room, the wall with a gap was the passage leading to the forging room. Even if you just stood outside, you could hear iron hammering from it.

She was worthy of being the most powerful blacksmith in Orario, and no one could match her diligence.

"Captain!"

"Yo, good morning, Yami. The time is just right."

Seeing Yami's arrival, Tsubaki stopped what she was doing and spoke with a bright smile.

Yami saw her throwing the mold she had made into the coolant.

"Zizizi!!!"

Steam rose all over, mixed with an unpleasant metallic smell.

"Today's plan has changed. I originally planned to continue teaching you basic forging skills, but I have used too many resources. I have almost used up all the ores, and other advanced materials have also been used up. I have to go out to buy them. Let's go together to the market to see if any suitable materials are available."

"Go out?"

Yami, who was looking for a reason to give up learning to forge temporarily and focus on exploring the dungeon and leveling, suddenly had his eyes shine. Wasn't this a ready-made reason for not learning how to forge?

Looking at Tsubaki, who was cleaning her hands and dressing, Yami suggested: "Captain, there are very few precious materials on the market. Why don't we go to the middle levels to find them ourselves? We can forge while looking for materials. It can also improve my status. Kill three birds with one stone. What do you think?"

"The dungeon?"

Hearing Yami's words, Tsubaki paused slightly.

She didn't think about other places but thought about the feasibility of this matter in her heart. As a high-level adventurer of the Hephaestus Familia, Tsubaki obtained her strength by going to the dungeon by trying out weapons she crafted.

Usually, she often went into the dungeon, and finding materials there was common for her.

"What you said is very reasonable. You are also a newcomer, so I will take you to the middle level to study for a while. By the way, I will teach you to identify the most precious materials on those monsters."

"But let me say it first, the monsters in the middle level are powerful, and the situation is complicated and changeable. Only the two of us will be there, and you will act as my support for the time being. You must obey my command in all actions and don't act rashly. Otherwise, I may not be able to protect you in time. Do you understand?"

While speaking, the dull hair on Tsubaki's head swayed slightly, with a serious expression on her face.

Having achieved his goal, Yami naturally responded, "Don't worry, Captain, I can protect myself and won't act recklessly, so don't worry!"

"Okay, let's make some simple preparations, about one to two weeks' worth of food, and then we'll set off!"

Ultimately, Tsubaki agreed to the proposal to go to the dungeon.

She really wanted to go to the dungeon to look for some materials. By the way, she also wanted to cultivate Yami's combat ability.

Yami hurried back to his room and put on the initial equipment. As for the rations and so on, they could buy them on the way later.

If he could find the right material in the dungeon, he could also update the equipment on his body.
