Overgeared

Chapter 58

A rare item didn’t seem that great, but I just nodded because I didn’t want to nitpick. Steng laughed, put his sword away, and sighed.

“Hah~ when will us users be able to submit our own items to the lady’s auction?”

I felt it from the beginning, but there was something strange about the conversation. I had to ask Steng in order to correct the misguided conversation.

“So…the reason you’re here right now isn’t to put an item you created up for auction? You’re doing a quest to place your master’s item up for auction?”

Steng smiled and replied. “Of course. Even the number one blacksmith, Panmir, can’t create items that can be shown at auction, so how could I?”

“…Can you share the quest information?”

“Huh? Why?”

“No, I just wanted to check.”

“Sure. It isn’t a secret, so I’ll show you.”

[The player ‘Steng’ wants to share the quest information. Would you like to accept?]

I accepted and the quest information appeared.

[Teacher’s Errand]

Difficulty: C.

This is the first auction that will be held after the appointment of the new lady of Winston.

Blacksmith Razvan will use this auction as an opportunity to show his skills to the lady of Winston and to get a foothold in Winston.

So he gave you, his disciple, an errand.

Quest Clear Conditions: Submit Razvan’s work to the lady of Winston’s auction.

Quest Clear Reward: 20 gold.

* If Razvan’s work is successfully bid on at the auction, he will give you a new production method…

I forgot, but general blacksmith users often had NPC blacksmiths as a teacher. By steadily carrying out the quests given to them by their teacher, they could raise the level of their blacksmith skills and gain new production methods.

I was fortunate that Khan gave me production methods without any conditions.

‘I’m certain of it after seeing this quest information.’

The users didn’t come here to submit their works to the auction. They were running errands for their teachers, just like Steng. As Steng said, it was impossible for the present production class users to produce outstanding items that would satisfy the lady and knights of Winston.

I could see it clearly. The difference between me and a general user was huge. I didn’t feel much inspiration when I made an epic rated item, but ordinary users were just happy at making rare grade items. I was desperately happy as I realized the greatness of a legendary profession.
