《Pedlar of Another World》Pedlar of Another World - Chapter 44

[Common Sense.]
What is more important? Protecting your own origin or helping the others? The rules of Nature is harsh. One would always need to choose the correct choice for themselves. I considered the issue for a while, but after I've seen how bad the condition of the country is, it seems that preserving the humankind isn't something extremely important now.
No matter how, when you look at how the Tian Gong Country manage their country, it seems like a dictatorship in my opinion. The land is controlled strictly where no peasants or basic population should possess the right to owned or use any of the lands for their personal needs. Fee for accommodation is a requirement, and if you would have a family, this means that you will need to struggle more to handle the stress of each single day's cost.
Not only that, the Country's rule is actually restricting the majority to possess the right to trades in the product above lower grades. This means, all the profit from above lower grade materials onward will be belonged under the government monopoly, and be used indirectly strengthening their own strength. In the same time, Many peasants from the town seem to have no knowledge regarding self-improvement at all, which is why I could still see that at least 70-80% of the population possessing the same strength and status like myself, and only a few are seen improving.
If this is how the Tian Gong Country conduct themselves, this means there will be no value in trying to preserve them. I've decided to goes along with the creation of the dagger and started to study the blueprints as much as I could to absorb all the knowledge before I begin with my own creation. Within my mind, quite a plenty designs started to come in, but what I wished is to craft a proper and stable dagger that would be suitable to be used by all kind of living beings.
But after being put into consideration for a while, I stopped assuming myself to be the creator and decided to take the position of an upgrade specialist instead. A stable dagger suitable for all beings? What an extremely glorious dream. There will be nothing suitable for the whole world, only further improvement. Human created dagger with a different build and shape with a motive. Goblins use a short dagger as their weapon for an easier victory. Orc might not bother with daggers as it is too small for their hand to properly grip it. Beast... Bite them on their mouth?

There will be no perfect shape which is suitable to all beings, so after decided that I will not be going for those wishful thinking, I decided to choose the shape I believe would be perfectly suitable for the goblin's size, usage, and damage. The design will be a Spike Dagger, a wide base blade with an excellent sharp point. This weapon is most suitable to be used in close distance combat and could bring tremendous results depending on the user's skill and advantageous.
The wide base blade allows the wound to widen according to the user's wish, and due to this particular advantage, this weapon had been called as the replacement of a direct confrontation Axe. With my mindset with creating this weapon, I've decided sacrifice all I have so far and went to use the conversion of 50 sets of all the Custom Goblin Armour to be melted into a single piece of steel before I begin to hammer and fold the metal to form a similar to Damascus Steel. Although the molten Tin gathered from the 50 sets of armour is not extremely concentrate, but for an initial trial, this is quite a good amount.
I start the process by hammering the steel into a more stabilized, folded form. I tried to fold over 12 times, but unfortunately, I failed. It seems like I would be required to have more strength before I could succeed to fold it exceed 12 folding. With folding technique, I manage to form the metal to become 2,048 layers within the single piece of metal, before I felt satisfied to begin hammering the metal to form the shape. The process is neither easy or hard, but the concentration required, exceed what a normally needs. It felts like I am being absorbed into crafting this weapon.
An hour later, I finally succeed. The piece of tin metal is formed into a long piece of the rod before it is sectioned. A small part of the extended part is used to creates a small pommel at the back of the grip, and a section is taken out to form a cross-guard before the blade section. The Spike Dagger is formed into a 10.5" length, from the pommel to the tip of the blade, and from the bottom, it was hammered into a widened section, slowly get point at the tip. After some sharpening and engraving, the weapon finally completed.

"Tribal Specialty Spike Dagger is successfully created. Satisfied with your works?"
Yes
No
"You have crafted a special weapon specialized to only Goblin Tribe. Your position as a Pedlar from Another World has increased."
"You will be rewarded with a special gift for your effort to create a special merchandise especially for the Goblins."
Current Contribution to the Goblins: 1
"You received a Cave of Three Kingdom Ownership!"
"You may choose to enter this cave at your own discretion."
"You may decide the type of material to be produced within."
"You may allow a maximum 2 Living being within the cave."
"You will be blessed with three kinds of materials within the cave."
"Your cave is dangerous!"
"Are you ready?"
Yes
Yes
Seeing this kind of term within the notice with no choice of "No" at all, I could only answer yes. Then an extra dot of light appeared on the Pedlar Setup Ring I'm wearing. The dot became brightly lit, with a beautiful rainbow colour that seems so mesmerizing. Just in that moment, an interface appears before me.
"Enter Cave of Three Kingdom?"
Yes
No
I chose yes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The vision changes into a huge cave. Three tunnels could be seen, with different colour as an indication. The tunnel on my north-west is filled with rocks and stones coloured in scarlet red, while another located at my South-west is coloured with dark green. Lastly, the tunnel on the south-east is coloured in yellow. The tunnel is void of any vegetation, but at top of the roof, light could still be seen.
"Krak..." some voice could be heard from the red tunnel side. The voice getting more distinct as some shadows started to appears from the tunnel. Soon it appears to be a few skeletal soldier. One of them wielding a spear, three with swords and another with a Monk Staff? I questioned my eyes, by after a rub on both of my eyes, it is still a Monk Staff.
"Oh well, let us see what we will get from killing these skeletal soldiers." I took out my Brass Hunting Pistol, aimed at the skeletal soldiers, and fire a few shots. "Tuk Tuk!" one of the soldiers falls but very soon, it crawled for a few steps and stands up once again. "Alright, this is undead huh?" I comment. Perhaps it was due to playing too many video games in life before I reborn into this world, seeing zombies and skeletal soldiers don't give me any fear at all, instead, it felt better because I wouldn't need to kill any human at all.
Throughout my journey in this world, I only killed three humans. Lu Fang, the guy that forced me to gave him my haul of treasure in Night Glowing Cave, and the two adventurers in the Sulphur Stone Woods. I shifted my mag of slugs into the silver one, and kneel on one knee. I took a sharp aim on the skeletal soldier and fired a heavy shot.
"Bam!" the impact cause the Skeletal Soldier to shattered on the spot. The other two soldier is injured as well, with a part of their arms is destroyed from that impact. Seeing the skeletal soldier is still around, I fired four more shots, and take down all five of them. I run a scan after all this is over, and noticed a few item is dropped on the ground.
Medium Grade 10 Red Power Crystal.
Lower Grade 10 Red Power Crystal x 3.
Broken Red Power Crystal.
Damn it! Does this means that the Monk Staff Skeletal Soldier dropped the Medium Crystal, the three Sword Soldiers dropped the lower crystals and the spear one dropped the broken crystals? If you did, you guys are going to cry now. I checked my magazine and sees another 15 silver bullets remain within, checked my inventory and sees another 40 magazines with silver bullets is within as well.
"It's Skeleton Hunting Time!"

By joining the war on the southern border. Not a war against mythical beasts or powerful demons, but against other humans.

Arnar the Dungeon
Arnar is a dungeon core. Everybody knows dungeons are evil, man-eating entities hell-bent on killing and absorbing whatever wanders inside their depths. The problem is no one ever told him that. Well, the truth is no one ever told him anything and he refused powers-that-be when they tried to make him into the proper dungeon. That should teach them not resurrect people into dungeon cores. Now it is too late. He has a perfect plan to become the best dungeon on the continent and nothing will stand in his way. Especially something called common sense. Disclaimer of sorts: I am non-native English writer that used to write mostly for himself. After my last computer decided to die on me taking all my works with it I lost the desire to write for quite a long time. This is my attempt to go find motivation to write again as this was my favourite hobby. The idea is to be held accountable. As for being non-native, I don't believe that should be a major issue as I feel my proficiency in English to be sufficient enough to not be too much of the distraction. That said, be forewarned that the rules governing punctuation are beyond my grasp. All I can do is try not to completely suck at that. As mentioned this is an attempt to motivate me to write again so any message, encouragement or constructive criticism will go long way.
