Chapter 43 - waking up

A month has finally passed since André fell asleep in order to digest all the knowledge and experience contained within the forge masters crystal, André finally started to open his eyes.

"—what a hangover" André woke up with a headache his head was pounding and it felt like it was going to explode, but this is understandable as he has just ingested an amount of knowledge about forging thousands of souls from masters who have lived for countless years.

Fortunately it didn't take more than a minute for the pain to subside and André got up off the ground, at that moment André closed his eyes in an attempt to access the enormous knowledge about the forge.

"—Forging is a manufacturing process that can be divided into refining, shaping and inscription" and immediately André is showing his knowledge with the basics of forging.

"—refining the metal is purified in the forge to eliminate the impurities contained in the raw metals, modeling is when a forger shapes his creation, inscription and where we write runes on the weapon so we can hone its capabilities and much more."

After recapitulating his knowledge, André began to feel his foreign body as if something was out of place.

"—the muscles of my body seem to have practiced something all their lives, it must be the experience in forge that the crystal of the forge masters gave me" finished checking the changes that had occurred right after the long sleep André turned to the piles of metal Enchanted men everywhere and recognized each of them, André knew about their magical properties, how to mine, how to refine, and how to create armaments with them all.

"—the silver ores are known as mythical silver is a very common ore used by beginner blacksmiths because it is cheap and does not require a great skill to be refined or shaped, the golden ones are called  millennium gold, they take more than 1,000 years of they are naturally formed and are good for the manufacture of weapons from rank 5 to rank 7 but they demand great craftsmanship and extra care in refining." André quickly demonstrated his great knowledge of the ores.

"—the blue ones, these are called luminescence from the depths, they are a rarity, they are formed in dark places without a drop of contact with any light source for over 100,000 years and finally the chief position the legendary and almost insistent  orichalco night used to forge the highest level items"

Seeing the rare metals that inhabited the cave and with the knowledge that allowed André to value them all André spent a few moments appreciating the treasures that lay before him until his expression suddenly changed and became grim.

"—it looks like I'm not alone" André noticed the presence of two other creatures near him and immediately went towards them to take satisfaction.

Arriving at the entrance of the cave, André comes across two huge snakes with ten meters in length, one was white with a white crystal at the tip of its tail and the other was red  with black horns.

Andrew started to approach his unsolicited guests with the intention of fighting them, but as Andrew approached them, the two huge snakes lowered their heads in submission.

"—We salute our king the great basilisk" a loud and clear message was heard from the two huge serpents which was heard only by Andrew for as the basilisk being the king of all serpents he could communicate with his subjects
