He is a professional craftsman. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as the dwarf accepted the money, he pulled out a drawing from the shelf above the table in the corner of the blacksmith's shop.
A hundred or so large parchments bound in thick oak covers make up this large and heavy book of drawings of weapons.
After opening, the style, structure, center of gravity, data, and various advantages and disadvantages of various weapons are clearly and rigorously marked, and the dense dwarven text below and the parts that have obviously been modified by adding pages can occasionally show the degree of care that the bearded dwarf has put into his craft.
Rohmon chose a narrow-bodied scimitar style that is common in the dark regions. The bearded man then measured Rohman's palms, arm length, and height. Only then did he display some of the materials stored in the store that could be used to enchant weapons for Rohmon to choose from.
Lava crystals, Athlon horn powder, Cryocrystal, Uzi Black Steel......
There are so many precious casting materials in a small, remote blacksmith shop. Rohmon was glad that he hadn't made it happen in the shop he had done before.
After discussing with the bearded man's eyes that lit up at the mention of forging weapons, Rohmon finally decided on a plan to use 'Uzi Black Steel'.
Compared to materials such as lava crystals or crystallized iron, which can attach special properties, Uzi black steel does not look so "cool".
The effect of adding black steel to the casting process is nothing more than an increase in the hardness and sharpness of the weapon.
But.
This is the most pertinent choice.
Because according to the narrow-body scimitar style required by Rohm...... This weapon form itself does not possess great strength.
In a fight, there is a high probability of breaking or being damaged in a collision with a long sword or broadsword that is three fingers wide or even the width of the palm of your hand.
Not to mention collisions such as tomahawks, broadswords, or blunt objects.
Therefore.
Intellectually, instead of adding materials such as lava crystals or crystals, adding a little or two points of fire or freezing damage sacrifices the already modest strength...... It's really not a good choice.
And if Uzi black steel is added.
Then the hardness and toughness of the weapon must be above 5+, and although this level of weapon has no advantage in fighting against large weapons that also have black steel added, it is enough to achieve the condition that it is extremely difficult to damage in battle.
There is no need to worry about being cut in two by the enemy with a large weapon.
Finish doing these.
After that, there is no need for Rohm's involvement. He left the blacksmith's shop, and by this time it was already dark.
Hurrying down the streets, Romon planned to find a clean inn before dark, and wait for the date agreed with the bearded dwarf to get his scimitar.
I'm walking briskly.
There was a commotion, but it came from the door of a house on the side of the road. Rohmon turned his head to look—but he saw an acquaintance.
That little tour guide.
During the day, he had just been tricked by this cunning kid into going to a junk weapon shop to spend, and of course Rohmon remembered what he looked like.
At this time, however, the boy's face was devoid of the alertness and cunning of the day. One cheek was swollen high, two teeth had been knocked out, and he was covered in mud, looking extremely embarrassed.
However, even so, the boy still struggled to resist, and his thin body stood in front of the broken wooden door of the house, and one eye was closed because of the swelling of the beating, so he only used the other eye to stare stubbornly at the men gathered in front of the door.
'Oh? There was a look of interest on Romon's face.
There's no need to get me wrong, Rohm doesn't like to see bullying villains. Rather, he had just seen the boy's subtle ...... The small movement barely was seen by anyone but him—the right hand that rolled slightly inward to the cuff......
The next moment.
The adult man, who was enraged by the boy's stubborn resistance, strode angrily at the boy, and the hard fist belonging to the adult, although there was no routine, hit the boy's cheek with full force!
In the case of a complete disparity in strength and weight.
If this punch hits, the boy is afraid that he will be beaten on his heels, and he will not be able to get up for half a day.
Rohmon watched with interest.
The boy reacted at the moment when the man punched, his only eyes open staring at the opponent's movements, and the dagger hidden in the cuff between the bending of his legs, squatting, and flipping of his wrists slipped right into his hand and clenched ......
He tried his best to bend his knees and bow his head to dodge, but his fist still grazed his forehead.
But at the same time, the boy, who had already been ready to be beaten, burst out at full speed, and under the impetus of the force of the whole person slamming on the ground, the whole person slammed into the man's arms.
The thin and immature shoulders were not enough to knock this adult man away, but the iron dagger more than ten centimeters long was enough to penetrate his belly!
Moment.
The man was stabbed.
The boy did not relax in the slightest, and it was clear that he had prepared enough mental anticipation for this blow.
In order to gain the upper hand in the confrontation with several adult men, the boy drew his knife almost without hesitation and stabbed it again! Pose it out again! Poke in again!
In a second and a half, the boy stabbed three times!
In the eyes of the onlookers, though, the three stabs were neither fast enough nor accurate enough - they were all stabbed in the same position that could not be fatal on the spot. But for a less than ten year old? For children, such ruthlessness and speed are already very impressive.
After all, against an adult man, the boy's strength, speed, and resistance to blows are all twice as weak as the other party.
is less than ten years old, and because of his own thinness, the other party is in an aggressive state...... This is not one of those fourteen or fifteen-year-old "minors" on the earth, but they look like little calves at one meter and eight meters. The latter's bold and bold idea of provoking adults with "I'm a minor anyway, and the law won't punish it severely" is also completely different from the starting point of this boy's insecurity and can only rely on himself to protect himself.
To be able to do this in such a situation of fear, hurt, and loneliness.
The boy is already good enough to be counted as excellent and talented.
The next moment, the man was stabbed and fled backwards screaming in terror. The boy seemed to be red-eyed, chasing the man and stabbing him twice in the ass.
Rohmon shook his head: the boy had wasted his best chance to hurt a few other adult men.
Sure enough.
Several men who reacted saw the bloody appearance of their companions, and immediately attacked the boy in anger and instinct.
The boy resisted with a dagger.
But even so, how can a boy less than ten years old confront an adult?
After scratching the two of them, the boy was kicked by several big feet, and the whole person flew out of the distance sideways, falling heavily to the ground, and even the dagger in his hand fell to the side.
One of the men was quick-eyed, and he rushed forward with an arrow and grabbed the dagger.
The others also came to their senses and took knives out of their bodies, and two others picked up two stones from the ground next to them and surrounded the boy.
Look at their murderous looks, if there are no accidents...... I'm afraid the boy will be beaten to death in the street today.
