Chapter 31
“Khan, I heard the rumour. But…you aren’t drinking?”
Kaaang! Kaaang!
It happened when I was working hard raising my blacksmith skills in the smithy. Khan’s friend arrived and started talking.
“Not drinking? What are you saying?”
“No, if you’re sober, then why are you hanging out with this unimpressive newbie every day? Tsk tsk. At first glance, he looks like someone who is ignorant of the world.”
I was referred to as an ‘unimpressive newbie’ by this damn bastard. This damn bastard had been talking ever since he entered the smithy.
“Old Man, if you stopped drinking because of this person…”
I placed strength in the hand holding my hammer. A rapidly rising killing instinct! Khan noticed that the hammer in my hand was shaking and hurriedly told his friend.
“Hey, shut up. You’re mistaken.”
“Mistaken?”
“Yes, mistaken. That young man might have a garbage-like appearance, but you shouldn’t judge a person from their outer appearance. That young man is actually a big person.”
Garbage-like appearance? Did Khan always think like that about me? I felt betrayed.
Kwang! Kwang!
I seethed with anger and hammered the steel with more strength. Then I suddenly looked at myself. I had levelled up from the gangsters, but I was still only level 21. Since both my armor and weapon were left in the warehouse, I was just wearing beginner clothes.
The criteria that an NPC used to judge users was their level, equipment and reputation. I didn’t have any equipment, my level was low and my reputation was low, so I naturally looked like crap to the NPCs.
‘What about the reputation I gained when I killed the gangsters?’
As I had some doubts, I listened to Khan and his friend’s conversation.
“You don’t believe it? Don’t be deceived by his appearance and watch his techniques closely. That isn’t the normal skill for a blacksmith. Isn’t it? And this is a secret, but this young man took care of Veil’s gang alone.”
“Uhuh! What nonsense are you talking? Yes, I admit that his blacksmithing technique is great now that I’ve seen it with my own eyes. That young man seems moderately good, unlike his appearance. But taking care of Veil’s gang alone? Aren’t they the fiercest outlaws in Winston? It’s impossible! How could a blacksmith take them out alone?”
