Master Of None Chapter 647

"I think I know just the seamstress that will need this to work on some special fabrics my party leader found in the first elf city." Gil had thought of Lisa immediately and knew that she would be fond of it. "What do you recommend for bow string though? Do you braid it for the crossbows?"
"I do, I usually use seven strands braided together to make one crossbow string. I would recommend less than that unless you are going to make the body of your bow stronger. I learned the string to body material lesson the hard way when I was younger."
The crossbow crafter was thinking back on the time he had made a wooden crossbow that had a weaker wooden body due to the money he lacked. When he had added the stronger bow string it caused the body to snack back and sprinter in his face. This was very common for younger crafters when making equipment without proper guidance.
Gil nodded knowing that any time he restrung his bow he had run the risk of tightening the string too much and breaking the body of the bow. However, he had not worried about it since he received the bow within his hands. It had already long withstood the test of time and appeared ready to last until the end of time itself.
"I will try a few different braided strengths after I have the body of the boy strengthened first. Thank you." Gil knew little about the overall strength of this material and having a base to go off of was very useful. "Now, I am looking for an ore that would have a wind and only a wind elemental affinity. My friend here has his fellow crossbowmen looking for some small mana crystals and some three branches from a special tree. The ore would be for the main body of the bow."

"That is a very strange request ya know. I have been asked some out there things. Like making bolts out of bacon. Yeah, some people have strange lives. Anyways. I have something but it is one of the rarest ores I have so it isn't cheap." The crossbow craftsman looked away and Gil had a feeling that the dwarf had definitely tried to make the bots out of bacon when asked.
Gil opened his eyes wide. He knew that things would be tough since the quest didn't specify where he would find the materials within the dwarf city. However, the system must have assumed he would be alone searching for these materials. No one could have guessed that he would run in to the crossbowmen and that they would be bored enough to go off and do a little material hunting.
"Gold is not something I have needed to worry about lately. My party has a joint account and we all work hard to fill it." Gil knew that Walker was usually the one to spend money for the party. But in this case, Gil was going t use the account. He wasn't afraid he would get in trouble but just felt bad he was spending the party's gold.
Then this is what you want. Out of all the wind based elemental materials. This is the only pure wind elemental material I have. It is created when the mountain erodes away and wind constantly bleeds out the earth elemental mana to replace it with wind elemental mana. After a very long time of this, you have breeze gold."
The golden chunk of ore in the crossbow crafters' hands was like any other gold. It was shiny and attractive to the eye. The only difference was that there was a slight movement of air around it the entire time. The gold itself was jam packed with wind elemental mana. It was like a strange elemental mana crystal.

"I didn't know that could happen to something...it's beautiful." Gil felt that this gold was pulling him towards it. The bow was also slightly trembling but Gil couldn't notice it since it was too slight.
"It is, I could never use it for decoration on my crossbows. You see the kind of messy brats that use them. I might be giving them some thing too valuable for them." The crossbow crafter knew that this was also because there was just so little of it that as soon as he used it he would be slammed with those who wanted it but couldn't have it.
Gil began t barter for the breeze gold and eventually reached a consensus on how much gold was acceptable. "I recommend you use this for any rune or just for filling in any carvings there is that will be added to that bow. It is perfect to enhance the wind elemental mana drawn to it while adding support." This was not the best metal to make entire weapons from due to the overall strength. But in small amounts t greatly added t anything made with it.
When Gil's hand touched the breeze gold he felt the wind elemental mana rush through and around him. It was as if the wind itself was welcoming him and the gold back together. "I can't say that has ever happened before." The crossbow crafter was at a loss since such a phenomenon had not happened.
Gil knew that it must be the spirit reacting to the wind elemental mana within the breeze gold. Thi pushed Gil to want t rush off and get the other materials. However, he knew that the other crossbowmen were hard at work getting them. He needed to trust in the dwarves to assist him and meet up again.
"I can't believe you just got glider spider silk for free and made a deal for one of the rare materials he has. You have already done more than me or my men have in years." The crossbowmen leader was in awe of Gil yet again. It was all a mystery to hod Gil pulled it all off.
