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.

The fallen (?) hero and Aži Dahāka's soul fragment
I have to apologize.A certain real life problem that I thought I got rid of has caught up to me once again.I tried to continue writing, but my mind was not in the right track to do so and thus, as some people had said, the quality of the latest 2 chapters had turned from the usual "bad" to "worst". So, I reluctantly have to say that I will be away until I can sort things out.I can't say when, but I do intend to return to writing. I might lurk around to read other people's works though. I will be turning my attention to stories with "tragedy" and "despair". The five of us were summoned to this world from our clubroom two years ago to be made as heroes.Shouldn't forceful summoning like that be counted as kidnapping?Well, we chose to go with the heroes route.After harsh training and battles, not to mention all the killings, we finally defeated the demon lord.However, all those achievements literally became nothing, it wasn't just forgotten, it was erased to be totally nothing as even the written records were somehow being disposed of. I was too naive. Who would have thought that the side we have been fighting alongside with, the side we were fighting for, was the one to bring our demise?After I had to see everyone else turn into nothingness, somehow... I alone survived. Note: I will attempt to fix the grammar problem with the help of lieutenant colonel fletterman. This may delay the release of future chapter. Chapter 1 is fixed. Chapter 2 is fixed.

Join the Discord!+Notable Tags+Profanity: People curse all the time. Rarely at each other or in a deragitory manner. Tramatizing Content: The MC is not a nice guy. He isn't your classic 'White Knight' who will defeat the 'bad guys' and save the day. Your normal views of the way the world should work are not the same for him. Expect ruthlessness, backstabbing, lies, dishonorable actions, and so much more that makes this story realistic and great.Urban Fantasy: While modern technology exists, along with space crafts and other soft sci-fi tropes, they are not key elements, nor will they be gone over in high details. This story is primarily magic/fantasy.Soft Sci-Fi: Read above. This story is a revised version of the previous story I wrote here on Royal Road. It's been almost a year since I published it and have worked on fixing it to become a better story that I am proud of. Edited as of 30JUL2022
