Chapter 728 Working Hard
-----
Once we joined with Ambil, we started working right away. Brisingra and a few others dedicated themselves to repairing and polishing equipment, doing it as fast as they could. Meanwhile, I dedicated myself to create ingots imbued with spirit energy and using them to reinforce equipment or create simple weapons, which sold immediately.
Both NPC Adventurers and Players realized how great the quality of the products was in here compared to the other competitors, and because we were having a very good discount, they went crazy, trying to buy absolutely everything they could.
Utilizing the Hephaestus Blacksmith Hammer Techniques was really useful, and with all the bonuses I gained from Hephaestus Successor, every item I made came with bonuses, even if I made them rather slowly.
Of course, the first dagger I made was still my best work, so I kept it as a souvenir of my first ever professionally made weapon, which I might improve over time in the future, or use for my Spirit Fusion Spells as a vessel for Spirit Creation too.
Even with all my DEX, I was still quite sloppy compared to Ambil, but I made up for it by complementing my smithing process utilizing spirit magic, imbuing the creations with spiritual energy and elemental energies.
"[Blazing Hammer Strike]!"
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
Several consecutive strikes with the hammer imbued with spiritual flames reached the still shaping weapon, as I quickly started unifying the parts together with a combination of smelting and forging.
Until finally… A beautiful silver-colored shield, shining with a rainbow luster was created! It was a special Spirit Shield, strong enough to be comparable to some early late game!
"There you go."
"T-Thank you so much! I can\'t believe I got something from Planta!"
A Player quickly bought the shield right away, paying several coins to Ambil in the process. The night had already fully arrived, and that was the very last client.
"PHEW…"
All of sighed in relief at the same time, resting over the floor, or just anywhere. It was sure a tiring day! We didn\'t do any fighting, but this crafting alone took us a while to do, and there were so many clients that we sold almost everything inside the forge.
Every client walked out happy as well, and they began spreading the word, which made even more people show up, this is why we were finishing off so late at night…
"Wow, that was quite something." Ambil was amazed. "I never on my whole life had I so many clients before! Even with all the crazy discounts we gave off… We\'ve made a fortune! This is… over seventy million?! We\'re only thirty off from getting out of bankruptcy!"
"LET\'S GOOOO!!!"
We all raised our arms celebrating this huge achievement. We never thought we would have almost five hundred clients, but I guess the discounts plus my own popularity made wonders!
"I can\'t believe we almost got it done in a single night!" Mark laughed. "If we can sell well tomorrow… We can end this very quickly!"
"Right?" Asked Brisingra. "And my Skills have increased their levels quite a lot too… I never thought I could get this good at blacksmithing."
"Me too! I\'m quite good at doing repairs!" Acorn said. "Please leave that tiring work to me instead, Lady Planta, you\'re too talented to just repair stuff!"
"Hahaha, Acorn, you\'re overpraising me." I giggled, patting his head. "I\'m still a newbie compared to Ambil. He really went above and beyond, are you not tired?"
"I am!" Ambil rested over his chair. "But I\'m also starvin\'… How about we have a nice dinner before doing some shut eye? Let\'s celebrate, my beloved disciples!"
"YEAAAH!"
Like that, Ambil led us to the kitchen where he started cooking. For someone that looked so rough around the edges, he was surprisingly skilled at cooking, beginning to make some pasta from scratch, a lot of bologna sauce, some onion bread, and fine wine, which accompanied this delicious Italian meal quite well.
It seems that this was a staple food around Luminous, but we\'ve had so little time to see more about it that we didn\'t knew they were so similar to Italian and Mediterranean meals.
"Wow, these noodles are so good! And what are these ones? They got meat inside!" Acorn said in surprise.
"Those are ravioli." Laughed Ambil. "My grandma and my mother taught me quite well how to cook a few meals, they said they weren\'t having me starvin\' all alone, hahaha!"
"I like this sauce…" Nieve blushed a bit, drinking the wine as well. "Wine is good as well, the bread tastes different than usual bread, interesting…"
"Hey Nieve, don\'t drink all the wine…!" Brisingra said, grabbing an onion bread stick and eating it after covering it with sauce.
"I want seconds, chief!" Rita had already finished her plate of ravioli. "Oh and make it double portion too!"
"Hey, I didn\'t made food for a whole squad! But fine." Laughed Ambil. "You deserve some compensation!"
"More bread sticks too!" Lily said. "Do you have another wine? Oh, and cheese? We could make some melted cheese on these onion bread sticks!"
"Right! Let\'s do that!" Rita nodded. "I\'m super hungry!"
"You two sure eat a lot!" Jenny was also tired; she helped a lot on her own ways, which were quite unique.
"It is really good!" I said. "Are you okay with me bringing some stuff too?" I opened my inventory, taking out several meals that were still pipping hot. Among them there was paella I made back Earth, curry, and karaage.
"Sure!" Ambil quickly tried the karaage. "What\'s this hard thing? Hm? OH?! So crunchy! Chicken?! How did you make the chicken so crunchy and tasty? You fried this?"
"Yep!" I laughed. "From all people out there I never thought you would be passionate about cooking; we can talk a lot about it if you want to!"
"I-I\'m not passionate, I just like eating good food, that\'s all!" Ambil got a bit embarrassed at my remarks.
As we had a nice dinner with everyone, I also checked my gains through the System Messages that I had ignored so far…
