Blacksmith Kai

You have too many items to proceed with the quest.

Please lighten your load and try again.

[

You... don't look familiar to me... ?

Are you going to threaten me?

No, right?

I have my reasons.

Please, pretend not to see me.

From now on, I'll stay here quietly and not interrupt anyone until the siege ends.

Don't worry about me.

I feel so grateful all the time about you letting me stay here.

It's nothing special... but if you want, I'll make you tools that could be of use.

I mean if the guild master wants it.

I'm also a master who pursues the ultimate way.

I hope I can find that way here.

Ah... Master.

I feel so thankful all the time.

Since I owe you big time, I'll help you with anything anytime.

Valkyrja's Shield is needed in the process of making Hervor.

You should not possess any other items except for Valkyrja's Shields in order to proceed with the quest.

Even if the refinement level and cards have been applied, the process requires any one of the Valkyrja's Shields you may have.

Please try again after organizing your possessions.

You've decided to keep Valkyrja's Shields only.

I see that you've developed the fortress as you promised.

Moreover, you've found Velund's items...

... so..let's get the work done.

Before the girls find us...

The girls... ?

... yeah, there were some girls..

I had to run away because of them...

Oh, no... !

They're here..!!

Leave it to me.

!- Instruction -!

Soon, 7 girls that are after

You have to protect

When the actual attack starts, the doorway of Emperium region will be blocked up for protection.

Hervor is a shield named after Hervor the Valkyrie.

I didn't know this fortress would have the items that used to belong to Velund, a husband of Hervor...

If we use them, we could make Hervor.

It's like a dream come true for me... my hands are shaking.

However, it seems like we need more materials.

Could you check again? I'll give you the list of what we need.

However, would it be okay if I said something?

Hervor is one of the most powerful battlegears I make and you deserve to receive something like that from me...

but I would like you to have the minimum qualification at least.

Manage this fortress well and raise its commerce level by 30 or more.

With great power comes great responsibility and duty.

I would like you to master the basics first.

I'll make you Hervor afterward.

Let me give you the list of materials if you want.

That is so nice of you to say that.

By the way, I wonder how my younger brother Cano is doing?

I'm sure he's doing fine just like I am.

... I hope things stay as peaceful as they are now.

Did you hear the news?

The girls are coming.

The merciless girls!!!

They'll get here any minute since they've declared war already.

I'm sure they're coming to get Hervor.

Stop them. Please!

Thank you...

I'm sorry that I'm causing you troubles, but my hands are tied.

Please, stop them for me!

... They are the girls who want to be Valkyries...

and they always go around in groups of seven.

What they want is a powerful battlegear...

They always threatened my younger brother Cano and me.

They were satisfied with basic weapons at first, but

soon they started threatening us saying that they need something more powerful in order to become Valkyries.

I couldn't stand it, so I ran away... but they're here...

You have to be careful since they found out that materials for Hervor are here.

Ah stop following me around!

If you could just get rid of them... Hervor, that's right! I'll make you Hervor!

When will they ever stop following me...

Now I'm scared of girls in general... and I'm too scared to do anything...

He's babbling now.

Just wait and he'll calm down.

You have to get rid of those girls first.

... Although I managed to escape from them again...

it's hard.

life is... just so hard.

I'm so exhausted that I can't do anything.

... I don't think I can do anything for a while, whether it's producing or smithing or whatever it is.

I'm sorry. I'll take a break.

I can finally breathe now.

I'll start making Hervor as promised.

Oh... thank you.

I can't believe I'm finally touching these materials myself...

Here it is.

Wasn't it fast although we had to go through many steps?

I was so overwhelmed that it felt as short as a moment.

Hervor, a shield that Blacksmith Velund made for his wife Hervor, is finally made

at the hands of

Whew.. I don't think I can work for a while.

I'm all exhausted. Hahaha...

Now is actually the right time to make it.

By the time next Emperium appears, there won't be any chances left.

Also, keep in mind the fact that I can only do this once a week.

I'm tired a little bit.

I think I should rest for a few days.

I may look just fine, but I was mentally very tired.

It's strange.

I can't tell how I feel.

Am I having some kind of a health problem?

Is it something uncurable?

2 of Velund's Hammer

1 Velund's Anvil

4 Bronze bars with magical power

3 of Velund's Bracelet

1 Rune characters' Secret

1 Valkyrja's Shield

1 Muspellium and Essence of Rune, respectively

We need as many materials as these.

By the way, Muspellium and Essence of Rune need to be made separately with additional materials.

In order to make Muspellium, you need to combine 50 Eluniums and 50 Oridecons.

For Essence of Rune, you need to combine 200 Ancient Rough Runestones and 100 Mystic Rough Runestones.

I'll make Muspellium and Essence of Rune anytime upon your request,

and of course, I'll make Jormungand as soon as we gather all the materials needed.

What I'm doing is never enough compared to what you've done for me.

However, you won't be able to find Velund's items.

... but people say they definitely appear to those who truly want it. I wish you all the luck.

Which material do you want to make?

I'll make Muspellium with the materials you've prepared.

It shouldn't take long.

It is an essential material for making Hervor and Jormungand.

In order to make Muspellium,

you need 50 Eluniums and 50 Oridecons.

We should have all the materials ready, right?

I'll make Essence of Rune with the materials you've prepared.

For Essence of Rune,

you need 200 Ancient Rough Runestones and 100 Mystic Rough Runestones.

Surely, it takes a lot...

Tell me whenever you need it.

I'm glad I can at least do this for you.

Also, a place where you can find materials for

this is like a dream place for me, too.
