'Heroic quest; side quest- Learn forging skills

The true hero is learning many things from the dwarven masters. The user must look to themselves for the crafting of their future spirit forged weapon. Relying on oneself will grant greater boons for any weapon and most notable masters have made their own tools of the trade.

Requirement:

Learn three skills related to forging and crafting 0/3

Listen and absorb the knowledge of how these skills are used.

Forge one item using all three skills learned

Rewards:

Material fusion skill'

Walker felt more energized reading that he would gain another crafting skill by working to learn three. This also sounded like the perfect skill for him to fuse the materials he had received from the treasury to make a tougher staff. He might even be able to make it more than just a staff. The thoughts were running wild in his mind until he realized he was getting too far ahead of himself.

"I need to learn three things. If I can do that I will have a much better chance to repair this golem in the future. Will you teach me?" Walker's serious tone made Grey wonder what had changed. However, he also received a quest from his system and understood that it must have been related to a quest Walker had received.

"Then let's get on with it. My chain quest here says you need to learn to hammer some super heated metal. Let's see if those skinny arms of yours can even lift a hammer." Grey was still in full work mode. He was treating Walker like any new apprentice and it was catching Walker slightly off guard. The change in attitude was a bit tougher but would make him better.

The apprentices continued to add scales and were left to work on the golem. Grey had very detailed blue prints and had given very specific instructions. If something went wrong the apprentices were trusted to deal with it but they were too careful to even let the smallest detail fail.

"You have a hammer or do you need one?" Grey wasn't wasting time as he sat down at one of the apprentices' forges. Walker pulled the two dual hammers from his inventory to show Grey. "Those will work, you only need one. Don't expect you can hammer and adjust the position without one hand on your clamps."

Grey had already slid a piece of simple iron in to the forge fire. He had clamps to pull it and a hammer at the ready. He was sitting at an anvil inscribed with many runes that protected from heat and shattering. It was a basic anvil for any apprentice and would be the safest while learning.

Walker was still surprised that grey had been so easily taken from the golem. However, he was able to deduce that if Grey received a chain quest to teach Walker then it must come with a valuable reward for his own crafting future.

"Pay attention. This is the color you want iron to be. All metals will heat differently and you will need to be able to add monster materials in to it. For now, we will remain with iron as is. You need to be able to hammer it in to shape and remove the impurities. Most don't realize that as the iron forms in the earth impurities and air is left in the ore. We hammer that out."

Grey's hammer glowed slightly with mana as he swung down. "That was the basic purifying smash. It is one of the most common forging strikes. It allows you to remove impurities and shape the metal as you wish. Watch some more before you try it." Walker did as he was told while Grey hammered down again and again.

He had known that many ores and mined materials had impurities. They couldn't be perfect since nothing was perfect in the world. This meant that he would need to be able to purify them. When Grey handed Walker the clamps he didn't hesitate.

Walker took the seat that Grey had been in and pulled out the heated iron. The weight was fairly light and the metal put off a decent amount of heat. Walker raised the small hammer that the wandering blacksmith had made him and struck down. He knew that he would not have the same effect that grey did on the first swing. But when he made contact he could feel the metal.

The metals resisted the force of Walkers' swing. It was as if it didn't want to change shape and pushed back. "You feel it now? That's the ore not wanting to change shape from what it is naturally. Use all your strength and focus on pushing it in to the shape you want. If you feel any string resistance that is an impurity. Hit it harder."

Hearing this prompted Walker to raise the hammer higher. He copied the movements Grey used and slammed the hammer down with all his weight and force. He was rewarded with the familiar sound of vibrating iron. This was the sound of the forge. The feeling of the heat building and the molding of metal.

Walker had felt these things before while heating and handing tools to the wandering blacksmith. He had felt it even before when he had first gone to the forge to ask for assistance in creating gear. He had even felt it when he saw Rodney mending the gates of the mansion. Forging wasn't just one aspect of molding metal but all aspects of working with metal.

'The skill purifying strike has not been learned. The user is currently undergoing the epiphany of metalwork. The user will gain skills depending on the users' actions over the course of the epiphany. The past experiences will affect the growth of the users' skills.'

The feelings of the forge echoed in Walkers' heart. He was no longer hammering metal but instead hammering away at his very soul.
