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?

Ambush

A month had passed, and Rivyn's days had been filled with relentless combat in the system space. Each day, he faced the hulking ogres that seemed to gain power each time he leveled up. Yet, even their progression had limits, and Rivyn finally managed to conquer the first wave of ogres after weeks of grueling battles. He sat on the mangled body of the largest ogre, its bluish blood pooling beneath him as he caught his breath and summoned his status screen.

He marveled at his growth. Each stat had soared past 300, a testament to the countless hours spent pushing himself to his limits. It was time to move on; he had reached his goal, and there was no longer a reason to hold himself back. Closing out of the system space, he was greeted by a sudden notification that made him smile.
