Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis finished the remaining forging tasks in a bit more than a minute. The young man inspected the items and nodded with satisfaction. "Looks good," he said as he took out the jade token. "Give this to the clerk at the front."

Gravis grabbed the jade token and nodded. "Thanks," he said.

"No problem, bye," the young man said as Gravis was teleported back to the main hall.

Johnson opened his closed eyes when he saw Gravis. "You failed?" he asked.

"No, I was successful," Gravis said with a smile as he threw the jade token over.

Johnson looked with furrowed brows at Gravis and then looked at the jade token. After inspecting it for a bit, he blinked a couple of times in surprise. "That's a high evaluation you got there," he said.

"How high is it?" Gravis asked with interest.

"Your quality and speed are at the absolute peak. The only thing not at the peak is your consideration for the client," Johnson answered as he took out several pieces of paper again.

"Consideration?" Gravis asked. He was quite surprised that he didn't get full marks in everything.

"Yep, consideration," Johnson asked as he watched the papers in front of him with furrowed brows. "The common errors that people make in consideration is that they don't ask about the client. They are fine with what they get without trying to get more information to make a perfect weapon suited for the client."

"Have you asked how tall the customer is? Have you asked if they prefer a lighter or heavier weapon? Have you asked for their preferences in terms of fighting style?" Johnson asked.

Gravis furrowed his brows. "I asked something about the materials with the first request, but I haven't asked for any additional information. Was I supposed to do that?" he asked.

Johnson nodded. "Have you received any additional information after asking about the first request?"

Gravis nodded. "Yes, I have been told how big the tower shield had to be. I didn't ask these things with the other nine tasks."

"Your clients won't always give you all the relevant information since they mostly don't know what information is relevant and what isn't," Johnson answered. "To make a perfect product, the product needs to perfectly fit the person and their fighting style. When you open your store, you should think about what you want to ask of the customers."
