The Tower's Blacksmith

Burdened by debts and on the edge of losing his workshop, Rivyn’s life turns around when he finds out that he got a mysterious System, which is different from the ones that every adventurer and blacksmith receive. This special System lets him create not only weapons and armor but potions, accessories, and Skill Books as well. Rivyn regains all his mechanical astuteness thus meaning he was given a second shot at success but at a great price. To progress he has to earn the system points for doing the hard tasks and doing it, better than anyone else. On the story’s premise, Rivyn’s talent increases with conflicts among guilds that want to monopolize the skills within the powerful organization. However, Rivyn isn’t interested in either fighting for the Renegades or becoming one of them. His only focus is mastering the art of crafting—until danger forces him to confront the truth: as strength is dominant even a simple blacksmith sometimes has to use a sword for his own protection. Given the looming complicated foes, guilds tempting and wooing him, and the ever present mystery of the System, Rivyn has to deal with the balance between craftsmanship and living. Will he grow up to be the world’s greatest blacksmith or will he be ravished by the powers that want to take him over?

Rivyn stood alone in the great, white expanse that stretched to infinity in every direction; space engulfed him and seemed so sterile, endless. The brilliant, white light illuminating the area was disorienting in a way that made one question where the ground ended and the sky began or vice versa. It truly was a place unlike he had ever been before-void of any landmark or feature in nature by which to know your direction or place within, an artificial dimension wherein challengers faced unyielding waves of enemies with nobody else in existence. It was right here that Rivyn arrived, intending to face the fierce manticore wave-the toughest of trials that would push his endurance, his skill, and his adaptability to limits he could never have imagined.
