Maria's POV :
sigh......that damn bastard making me change my profession as he please if only he weren't an adventurer who is able to come back to life I could have had him killed.
Just what where the gods thinking giving such bad people such gifts (taking about players being immortals), It must definitely be the work of evil gods, do I really have no choice but be his slave for the rest of my life.
Currently I am standing in front of a blacksmith workshop he ordered me to go, knocking on door I finally hear a voice telling me to come in, going in I can see a really well built person working on the forge.
wondering where the voice came from i look around to see a small boy standing by the door, the boy whispers me to keep quite which I do, after a while the blacksmith seems to be done with whatever he was doing, he gives the boy the finished product and a note after which the boy leaves the shop, turning to me he looks a me questioningly.
"What do you want girly"
"I was told to go here to learn blackamithing" saying so I hand over the letter the bastard gave me.
Reading it he tosses it to a corner, he then signals me to follow him, as i do we are in another room filled with books he tells me to study them all.
The books contain knowledge on vast majority metals and way to use them, techniques and tips about black smiting, took a week to read through that after which he made me practice basic strokes on junk material for another week.
After getting satisfying result he gave my first task of making any kind of tool, though I hated it at first it's not like that'gonna solve anything so I decided to go along with this.

I decide to make a short knife, using beak to bend the iron bar, I hammer away at the bar to make the shape, after it reached the wanted outline shape I allow it to cool down slowly then grind it to 9th fact shape, then temper it many more times to increase its durability, the resulting product earned me passing grade.
I continue working in the blacksmith shop to improve my skills, it been 2 months since I started and still no message from the bastard, I hope he forget about me I could happily do well with the life here but that's only my wish full thinking.
Anna's POV :
Well well, our master seems to be using us thoroughly for leveling himself up quickly, but there is one major flaw with this method he won't learn a thing about compact this way, his movements are at best ameturish this is going to be a problem if we are gonna fight in group for a long time maybe I should coach him some time, well thoughts for later for now i got a few months free time from him.
I decided to visit the orphanage where a pleasant surprise was awaiting me, my kid brother who has joined the guards seems to regular visitor in the orphanage, it was an emotional reunion.
Took a while to came him down and explain that I am not that bad a situation as the one who brought me is just using me as bodyguard, still he promised me he will find a way to free me, that aside we went back to our old home, sending some sweet family time.
Other than that I focused on making high level potions to make as much as money as possible during the alloted time I have, after two months I gained thousands of gold coins which I donated to the orphanage.
