Once Chu Jin had finished his fight, he realized he had gotten 3 system notifications.

[Congratulations, you have killed a human, +5 Xp]

[Congratulations, you have killed a human, +5 Xp]

[Congratulations, you have killed a human, +5 Xp]

"So I can get Xp that way too huh."

Chu Jin wasn't used to video games, so he wasn't familiar with the basic ways to get Xp.

Making his way back to the surface, Chu Jin realized that he didn't have a way to store the bodies.

"Damnit, how can I hide this then?"

[System suggestion: store all non-living things within the inventory]

"Hey, isn't that a little bit strong?"

Returning to the bodies, Chu Jin found out that he merely had to touch them to transfer them to his inventory.

After that was taken care of, Chu Jin returned home, but his mother saw something wrong.

"My gosh, what happened to your ear?" His mother, Wol Er Shang asked, stuffing his head into her chest.

"I'm fine mom, just hit myself with a pickaxe is all"

Chu Jin decided not to tell his mother about the attacks, as the bodies were in his inventory and he didn't want to reveal the system just yet.

Moving to the forge, Chu Jin brought the 4 iron ore out of his inventory, before dumping them into the fire.

After they had smelted for an unspecified amount of time, Chu Jin shaped them into 4 different swords, before tempering them so their quality could improve.

Obviously, making 4 swords at once required a lot of concentration, so Chu Jin was very careful in every movement.

After the tempering, he concluded the process by letting them cool off in water taken from the well.

This whole process took almost an hour to complete, but it was worth it.

"System spend 4 Craft points on iron ore"

[+2 iron ore, -4 Craft points]

Although the quality of the previous items left much to be desired, it gave him 5 craft points each, and even if you said each sword cost 2 Craft points in iron, he still profited 12 Craft points.

All through the night, Chu Jin made iron swords, only stopping once he reached 60 Craft points.

"System, spend 30 Craft points on Xp."

[+300 Xp, -30 Craft points]

[You have enough experience for a breakthrough, would you like to level up?]

[Yes] [No]

After clicking yes, Chu Jin received 1 stat point and put it into dexterity, raising it to 2.4, and improving his ability to handle tools and resources.

The difference was very noticeable, and Chu Jin was confident that he could make 4 or even 5 swords with no stat decreases now.

But he could level up one more time, so he did, before putting all his stat points into intelligence.

Instantly, Chu Jin could feel himself breaking through the barriers he had encountered in design before, and was now fully confident in making the next grade of item.

But now wasn't the time for that, he needed some good nights sleep.

When he woke up, Chu Jin could fully remember every insignificant detail of his dreams, and if asked to right them down, he would be able to do so without making a single spelling mistake.

Chu Jin immediately started righting down the recipe for a new dagger, as he thought it'd take less resources than a sword.

"Let's see, I'll need a gold ore and some iron, as well as a bull horn. oh, I leveled up, I wonder if there's anything new in the shop."

[Shop]

10x Xp

Cost: 1 Craft point

1 iron ore

Cost: 2 Craft points

1 gold ore

Cost: 3 Craft points

1 silver ore

Cost: 5 Craft points

"Silver huh, I could replace the iron with silver, and with some tweaks we'll be better than ever."

After he finished the recipe, he built a cast for the dagger out of iron, losing 4 Craft points.

He bought the gold and silver, then took a bull horn from the clan storage.

"Alright, here we go."

Chu jin started by shaping out a hilt with clay, then he built it in gold based on the model.

After the gold cooled down, he used it as a blockade to stop the silver from entering where the handle was supposed to be.

After the silver had finished casting, his hands moved faster than ever to build a handle out of the bull horn and iron as the base.

After an hour of hard work, the system rewarded him kindly.
