F01-PP-PT Another Another One <<EAL: Blacksmith>>

[Sinnamon 0]

Artisan had been easy. At least setting up the work space in her office had been. But a whole-ass forge? Sin would need to get creative. But that was a problem for the future. For now, she needed to unlock the damned profession. And if it was anything like the last time, it would be a quick hop skip and jump. Talk to person, go gather materials, come back, craft. Easier than she was, really.

And so she did just that, helping herself to an item from the Guild Vault as she did. Perk of being Visionary's Treasurer. She had pretty much carte blanche free reign over the items in storage. She wondered if she was taking too much. They didn't have much of a stockpile thus far. But, she figured that the long term benefits outweighed the short term costs. After all, having someone who could craft anything would be one hell of a boon for the guild.

Sin found herself entirely unimpressed by the doe-eyed Blacksmith working the forge in front of her. Until now, every NPC that she had come across had looked the part of an expert in their field. Even Drax, creep-ass old dude that he was. But this guy - Callum - didn't even have calluses on his hands. And unless NPCs in this game had a baller-ass moisturizing routine, she doubted that he would be much help in the grand scheme. Not like she needed it. Sin wasn't exactly one to go through the ritual of crafting - unlike some tall, dark and handsomes she knew.

“Hey, uh. You looking to become a Blacksmith?”

Sin nodded. “Go grab materials, come back, be careful of monsters?”

Callum placed his hammer down on his anvil, wiping the sweat from his brow with the back of his thick glove. “Not your first time?”

“Not my first time,” Sin beamed.

The distance between the main gate and the first pack of lootable mobs was barely the size of a football field. Learning her lesson from her last Quest, Sin took great pains to make sure that the arrangement and her angle of attack was just so. It took a bit of waiting. Well, a lot of waiting, really. But eventually, the mobs managed to clump up in such away that the arc of her Sword Art would tag each one of them. At least, if they didn't move last second. She dashed out of the bushes. As she entered their aggro radius, the mobs all turned directly towards her.

It would have been intimidating if they weren't just really fat and plump boars. But the motion locked them in place, allowing Sin to leap into the air, land in the midst of them, and slice through their hides with a crescent moon arc. She quickly collected just enough of the loot that she needed and made a beeline back for town.

Back at the forge, Sin delivered the materials to Callum.

“That was quick,” the young blacksmith said. “You barely left!”

“I like to be efficient,” Sin replied. “So how do I do thiis?”

Rhetorical question. Just like with Artisan, another Profession was added to her crafting menu the moment she turned in the materials. She tapped the Blacksmithing tab and pressed the button to initiate the craft. Rather than go through the motions of pounding steel and heating metal, she just let the system do its own thing. It worked only because she was standing at what the game considered to be a forge. She would have to figure out what exactly Cardinal thought a Forge was and push that to the absolute limits.

But, she had a new sword. And a new Profession. She would figure out the ins and the outs once it got closer to time to take ranking it all seriously.
