The moment 'Master' Gion Greybeard revealed that they managed to obtain an ore that could be processed into Timpala Steel, Ves couldn't help but feel shocked!
Timpala Steel! This was the essential exotic the Mech Designer System demanded from Ves!
For a long time, Ves paid no mind to the five Supply Missions the System issued.
None of the materials mentioned by the System were average products that Ves could casually order from the galactic net.
After realizing how impossible it was to obtain the materials needed to complete the Supply Mission, Ves simply decided to pay no further mind to them. He consciously pushed them to the back of his mind where they lay forgotten and covered in dust.
In truth, a part of Ves simply didn't want to dance to the tune of the System anymore. In the last few years, Ves felt that he had largely outgrown the System.
