Omega Summoner

Chapter 227: Costly Repairs

”Tell me then young lad. Why would one of the Daemos look for me?” Aurgelmir stated.

”We are looking for a demigod blacksmith that can fix the Undead Kingʼs Crown.” Adrian replied.

”And who told you of my location?” Aurgelmir asked as he only knew few individuals from the Daemos.

”Pann told me that a blacksmith living in the far north may be able to help me. He pointed the location himself.” Adrian replied.

”Yohoho. So that old sack of bones is still alive. I thought he would die of boredom and his crankiness.” Aurgelmir stated with a hearty laugh.

”Since you came all this way then I might as well hear your opinion. Why would the Daemos help the undead?” Aurgelmir stated in a serious tone.

Adrian summarized the events on why he is helping the undead and the reason why he needed the crown fixed immediately. Aurgelmir listened attentively as it is news to him as he is isolated for quite a long time. Jotunnʼs do not have the luxury to travel like the Daemos who can just pop in and out.

”I see. The undead are now split into factions unlike last time when the Lich King was leading them.” Aurgelmir stated and Adrian immediately noticed the frost giantʼs specific words.

”You speak as if you went into battle with the undead horde when the Lich King commanded them.” Adrian stated.

”I was there when those buggers covered the lands with their filth. Your very own brotherʼs in arms rising from the dead and killing the brothers that he once swore to protect. I do not like the undead but if Pann led you here then he must think it is a good reason to repair that crown. Who is the undead king anyway?” Aurgelmir stated.

”The undead king is called Arthur. He said that he used to be a real king and he was the Champion of the God of Death.” Adrian said and Aurgelmir had a surprised look for a brief moment which Adrian noticed.

”Can I see the crown then? I do not like wasting time.” Aurgelmir stated as he wanted to go back to crafting.

Adrian then took out the crown fragments and Aurgelmir looked as if he is familiar towards the crown. Aurgelmir did not say anything and moved towards his forge. He wanted to finish repairing the crown immediately as if he has the drive to.

”I also wanted to ask if you can repair broken legendary weapons?” Adrian asked since he already is there.

”I can. Legendary weapons are easier to repair but it would cost you. I am already repairing this crown for free since Pann sent you here.” Aurgelmir stated.

”I can see that you do not need money in exchange. You live isolated here so I bet you do not need gold as payment.” Adrian replied.

”I do not need gold coins but I do need materials like metal. A metal from another world would be good as well as payment. You also need to give me the materials needed to repair the broken weapons.” Aurgelmir stated.

Adrian then brought out the five broken legendary weapons that he needed to be repaired. Aurgelmir took a quick glance at all of them and listed the materials one by one. Aurgelmir gave the list of materials to Adrian but his face became paler and paler as he read each one.

”Uhmm…Can you only give me the things needed to have them to be barely functioning without losing their legendary tier?” Adrian stated as with this amount of materials then he would be bankrupt.

”Is that so?” Aurgelmir stated and took back the paper he scribbled on and cross a bunch of stuff. The frost giant handed back the list of needed materials.

Adrian received the list and his face still paled. Levin Cloud wanted to know what is on the list and he regretted looking at it. Levin Cloud just patted Adrianʼs back to console his friend.

”I can feel your pain. Fortunately, my main weapon just need materials in order to upgrade unlike your main weapon that needs other weapons.” Levin Cloud stated and tried to console Adrian but it only added salt to the wound.

”I need ten fire drake scales for the sword, two pounds of Adamantium for the Shield, five pieces of Elderbark for the bow, five Lightning stones for the spear, and Two Aquamarine shells for the wand. With the price of all these items, I would be able to buy one legendary weapon.

The worst part is that these items are just only to make them barely usable so that I can feed it to my weapon.” Adrian stated which Levin Cloud could only smile with pity for his best friend.

”They probably traded those to you because they also could not afford to repair them. I feel like you got cheated.” Levin Cloud stated but Adrian could not really agree wholeheartedly.

”Finding legendary weapons are very difficult. I am pretty sure that you can only chance upon them. I am already lucky enough that my weapon has no durability and could be upgraded just by feeding it weapons.” Adrian stated as he glanced at his demi-gauntlets. Aurgelmir also got fixated on the gauntlets that Adrian is wearing.

”May I look at your gauntlets, young lad? My blacksmithʼs fire suddenly lit when I glanced at it. Even your soul weapons are unique that one can tell a god forge them himself.” Aurgelmir stated and Adrian agreed.

Adrian did not need to take the demi-gauntlets of or rather he could not because it is bound. He can put the demi-gauntlets in his inventory but he cannot give it to others. Aurgelmir took Adrianʼs hand to inspect the demi-gaunt lets but the latter could not stop from feeling shy. The sparkly eyes of the frost giant observing his weapons did not help lessen Adrianʼs shyness.

”Amazing! As expected of something crafted by the god Haephesto. There may be seals on it because it needed to be sent to the mortal plane but this marvelous weapon could grow to become something Divine tier.” Aurgelmir stated which washed away Adrianʼs shyness to be replaced by shock.

A weapon that could grow to become Divine tier is unheard of. Adrian thought that his demi-gauntlets could grow into a Transcendent tier weapon but something of divine rank never popped into his mind. This greatly shocked Adrian that he even forgot about the heartache he got every time he upgraded the grade of the weapon.

”You mean as long as I feed it with weapons of Divine tier then it could ascend to becoming a Divine weapon?” Adrian asked because he is now highly expectant of the future.

”It is not that easy because Divine weapons are not that easy to unlock. Only gods can utilize 100% of the weapon while demigods can only use 50% of a Divine weapon. The weapon also needs to have a will in order to ascend to Divine tier. I am sorry to break your bubble lad but you have a long way to go.” Aurgelmir replied.

Adrian did not hear what Aurgelmir said as his mind is now geared towards upgradeable to Divine tier. His mind is basically rejecting the idea of impossible as he is basking in his imagination when his weapon becomes Divine tier.

Whack!

Levin Cloud slapped Adrianʼs cheeks because the latter is showing a dazed and happy face that no one needs to see. Adrian immediately awoke from his daze and looked towards Levin Cloud that is now acting like he is sorting his inventory.

”Is there a fire drake living near your forge?” Adrian asked while he rubbed where he was slapped.

”There should be one but they live inside a dungeon that is deeper down. Be careful as there are large group of monsters that live near me. They do not come to my forge because they are intimidated by my presence and I also have a monster repelling enchantment covering my whole forge.” Aurgelmir stated.

”How long can you fix the crown?” Adrian asked before he left to go hunting.

”It would take about twenty to thirty days. It is not a cake walk to fix a Mythical item back to its peak. I should also prepare the ingots needed first and that would take five days out of the whole time.” Aurgelmir replied.

Adrian nodded and told Levin Cloud that they should hunt here first since they are already in the area. Aurgelmir returned to his forge while the two best friends headed to hunt in order to level up.

A handsome middle age man is watching the recorded battle that Equinox and Eldritch had and a smile could be seen in his face. He is enjoying the battle where two opposing forces are doing their best to win against the other. This is the creator of the game Mr. Atlas himself.

”Deus, who would win if they really went all out?” Mr. Atlas asked his AI.

”Eldritch would still win by a narrow margin but only if Equinox used his skills effectively. Equinox has yet to battle against players when he got confronted so he did not know how to effectively fight them. Eldritch would still win because he has yet to use his most powerful skill, Call of Cthulhu.” A robotic voice replied.

”This is a battle that makes one blood boil but sadly no one else but I could watch it. It seems that I need to promote the world championships to the board a bit early than I imagined.” Mr. Atlas stated as he looked towards his office window.
