"Morning Su, what are you up to?" Walker found Su downstairs with breakfast sandwiches already made staring at the two shields she had leaned up against the wall. 

"Just trying to figure out how I can use my skills together. I think I will be starting out practicing by myself on some training dummies. My shield bash skill is one I have only ever used with one shield and not two. I also have no idea what skills may change or come from my new upgraded system. I just have a feeling I will need to learn more than I expect." 

"I think that's the perfect plan, I know I will be in the forge the whole day. If everything goes well we should have Gil, and Remey's gear done then finish mine tomorrow. After that would just be some upkeep and little things. I plan to let our blacksmith friend decide if he wants to stay longer. I do have a feeling he may start to plan a trip to the mountains though." 

Walker was recalling how much the wandering blacksmith had focused in  the book about forging in the mountains and the fact that he had been pouring over some maps in the library. Maria had surprisingly started to grow closer to the silent calm man. Having someone else in the library to read that didn't make her fearful was a good way for her to adjust to other people. 

Eating his sandwich fast Walker left Su to gaze at her shields longer. He thought she had developed an unhealthy love of them but he was thinking that he would be the same way when he got his new weapons too. 

When he and Midnight walked in to the forge they found that there were mana gems added to every single pile of materials. There were also some plain swords, spears, shields, and other basic tools made from iron. It would appear that the wandering blacksmith had started to make basic items for Walker after he had finished the mana gems. However at this moment he was asleep with his head on the anvil. Walker decided to start to store away the basic weapons to clear up space for them to work. 

By the time the wandering blacksmith started to stir Walker was sweeping away some ash from the dirt floor. This made the groggy blacksmith smile along with seeing the breakfast sandwich on the table that Walker had brought out for him. He himself had also not eaten the entire time he forged and it was going to catch up to him if he didn't eat now. 

Once he was ready the blacksmith started up the forge and chose to start with the smallest piece first. Gil's dagger was an easy thing to make and would require the least mana. This meant that by the time he had the next set of materials heated Walker and Midnight should already be more or less at full mana. 

The process went the same as before however the shaping in to a dagger was different. The small blade was made to fit the sheath that was made the day before. On top of this the Wandering blacksmith was adding strips of the steel worm skin to the handle while it was still hot. The slight hiss that this made was surprisingly satisfying, the skin almost melted and became one with the handle of the dagger giving it a perfect grip. 

The temper on it was quick and it took less than an hour to complete and cool. Once done the wandering blacksmith got to sharpening and polishing the small dagger. Due to it's small size he did not add an inlay for a mana storage gem. He would also make the arrow heads later but would not require Walker or Midnight's help so it was being set aside for now. 

The next on the list appeared to be Remey's gloves and Armor. The steel worm skin had been shaved in to thin straps that were wrapped around think rods of metal alloy the wandering blacksmith had already made. He started to heat the entire pile at once. The black flames forced the steel worm skin to join with the metal. 

When the wandering blacksmith pulled them from the flames, he did not use a happier but instead twisted them together and seemed to use similar techniques to making thread. The work he did with the red hot and nearly molten metal was something that Walker had not even thought possible. By the time he had realized that this technique had been made a mix of cloth making and metal working Walker already could see the shape of one glove. The speed that the wandering blacksmith used made his hands almost a blur. 

Soon there was a fully formed shoulder length glove held on to a mold as it cooled. Through the process the steel worm skin had kept the metal bendable making the hands and joints of the glove movable like the steel worm skin was. However it had the toughness of the bronze dragon scales and Orichalcum. In each of the forearms were three small holes that looked like they could be fitted with a small stone. Walker looked at the table of materials and found that there were six small flat mana storage gems waiting to be used in them. 

Much later when both gloves had set in to proper shape the Wandering blacksmith pushed the gems in to place and used small pieces of metal to attach them firmly. There ended up being patterns that looked to be sewn in to the gloves even though they had not been sewn at all. The technique was a mystery even though Walker had just witnessed it.

This one glove had amazing stats too. Walker was thrown off by just how amazon all this gear was coming out. They should be insanely valuable gear used only for the strongest adventurers. He felt that he was not worthy enough to even be in the same room with it. However there way more to come as the same technique was being used to make the light body armor for Remey as well. 

The time went faster with the body armor since it was a less complicated shape. When it was done it cooled on a mold of a female body that had been adjusted for someone Remey's size. It also had some extra parts added to be adjustable with growth which was a very considerate addition. The wandering blacksmith fitted one mana gem in to the chest area of the light armor which caused the patterns to sync with the gloves. They were a perfect set.

Walker had used his all around appraisal skill on all of these armors and was still surprised by how great they were. The earth resistance was obviously from they steel worm skin which would help if they ever came in to battle with someone or something using earth related magic. The decay and fire were the same as before. However the sheer amount of mana Remey would be able to store was greater than anyone in the party. 

Having this ability to store a massive amount of mana meant that as their front line attacker Remey could put out a significantly more deadly amount of damage now. She had pretty much become double as dangerous as she was. 

Walker decided that while they rested he would check Gil's dagger as well. 

' Black scale dagger

+5atk

Strong decay resistance 

Strong fire resistance' 

This was the most tame piece they had forged so far mostly because it was technically a backup weapon for when Gil somehow ended up in close range. The real bonus would be the arrows once they had been made. Gil would be able to adjust them to have poisons or mana gems in them giving them different attacks that would not require him to use skills that relied on his mana. 

While he thought on this his eyes drifted to the pile of materials that was left. They were going to be his large hammer and two smaller hammers. There were more materials in the pile than he realized along with a small mold for the smaller hammers. They were looking to be flat on one side and spiked on the other. This would give them some penetrative power and bashing power. There was also the added benefit that they would be able to be used for forging, other crafting, and just general use. 

Walker wanted to get right to work but when he saw how tired Midnight already was he knew that they would not be finishing everything today Instead he decided to call it a day early and see how Su was doing with her training. The wandering blacksmith had already foreseen this and was instead starting work on the many arrow heads for Gil's arrows. Walker felt that he had lagged behind a little in this situation.
