[SP-F1] Earning a Living: Ichiro the Hammer (complete)

[Ichiro_Fumito 0]

Ichiro walked out of the inn smiling. He was excited to finally learn smithing in Sword Art Online. Ichiro loved smithing before coming to SAO, so much so he learned to smith daggers and small swords. Now that he was trapped in Sword Art Online he felt as if he finally found his place in this world. With smithing he could not only relearn his passion, but possibly save numerous lives. Ichiro walked over to a local blacksmithing shop and approached the owner. "excuse me" spoke Ichiro, "Could you teach me how to smith?" The owner looked him over as if he were determining the value of a sword. After a moment he spoke saying, "My name is Gerilthar. Welcome to my shop, young man. If you want to learn smithing from me your going to go into the cave at the east end of floor 1 and find some ore. Once you have it come here and create me 3 good blades. If you can do this I will teach you some of what I know." As he finished he held out his hand. Ichiro shuck his hand with a smile. Ichiro walked out of the town and headed toward the cave the man mentioned.
