All Master Who Regressed to Bronze Episode 075
Whoooooosh!
“Alright, I’ve brought all the unique-grade and legendary-grade materials that exist in the workshop.”
“Wait, if you take all of this, what’s the workshop going to run on?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. I already set aside the materials needed for production orders.”
As soon as work began, Sejin immediately raided the workshop’s warehouse.
Having brought all materials except those needed for production orders, Sejin first examined Shin Hyeok’s armor.
“I don’t really need to touch this one. You said it grows on its own when fed materials, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Then let’s start by feeding it unique-grade materials, then gradually add legendary-grade materials.”
“Got it.”
The Absorption Armor.
Armor that started at common grade and had now grown to unique+ grade.
Even now it was sufficiently good armor, but Sejin seemed unsatisfied with that and poured in unique-grade materials.
Crunch crunch crunch crunch!
The mouth attached to the Absorption Armor ruthlessly chewed and swallowed materials for about ten minutes.
In just those ten minutes, dozens of unique-grade materials disappeared.
“It’s not eating anymore?”
“Since it didn’t grow, it seems like we need to feed it legendary-grade materials from now on.”
“Right, it wouldn’t make sense for it not to eat legendary-grade materials to grow into legendary-grade equipment. Let’s start with Manryeon Steel.”
However, the Absorption Armor did not grow.
The Absorption Armor firmly shut its mouth as if it wouldn’t eat any more unique-grade materials, and legendary-grade materials began to be fed to it.
Starting with Manryeon Steel.
Among legendary-grade materials, these were relatively easy to obtain, and most of them were items given by China.
‘I’ll have to raid that place later too.’
As was typical of steel series materials, they could somehow be mass-produced given skilled craftsmen and time.
Especially since China overflowed with craftsmen and materials, entire castle-grade cities operated like factories, literally churning out Manryeon Steel.
Thanks to this, a considerable portion of the legendary-grade materials held by Sinwha Workshop was Manryeon Steel, so there was no great worry about feeding it to the Absorption Armor.
Crunch crunch crunch!
The Absorption Armor began devouring again.
But after eating three pieces of Manryeon Steel, it wouldn’t touch Manryeon Steel anymore.
“It’s really picky.”
“Well, Manryeon Steel is the lowest grade among legendary-grade materials.”
“It’s fine, there are still good materials left.”
Eventually, they had to input legendary-grade materials other than Manryeon Steel.
Grumbling briefly about how picky the armor was for just being armor.
When they fed it Lightning-Struck Peach Wood, which was a legendary-grade material like the legendary-grade Fire Crystal, changes finally occurred in the Absorption Armor.
Whoooooooosh!
“Oh, now it really looks like proper armor?”
“The completion level has increased even more. The previous one was already impressive enough, but this is truly amazing. Plus, it’s even better since it normally maintains armor form but transforms into full plate armor when energy is infused.”
The Absorption Armor had reached unique+ grade and taken the form of full plate armor covering the entire body.
It had become a bit more luxurious and better looking.
Of course, since performance was most important, Shin Hyeok and Sejin immediately checked the Absorption Armor’s status window.
[Absorption Plate Armor]
* Legendary Grade
An item that once contained the power of a great demon and has partially regained its past glory.
* All Stats + 113
* Defense + 1,666
* Unique Skill: Shock Absorption
* Unique Skill: Shock Release
* Unique Skill: Shock Devouring
* This item can grow.
“…This is insane.”
“…I’m frustrated. Honestly, I’m not confident I could make equipment as amazing as this.”
“You’ll make it someday. If it’s you, hyung, you’ll definitely be able to. Above all, this seems to have been equipment related to Constellations, so it’s an exception.”
“Tsk, well, at least it turned out well.”
The Absorption Armor had grown into Absorption Plate Armor.
In the process, defense increased by 1,000, and all stats increased by an additional 41.
Plus a new unique skill.
‘Shock Devouring. It devours shock and converts it into defense and stats. The defense and stats were already high, but with this, it would be mid-to-high tier even among legendary-grade equipment. I’m looking forward to when it grows to legendary+ grade.’
He was also pleased with the effect of the unique skill.
Supplementing the already sufficiently high defense and stats.
Of course, there was the disadvantage of having to take attacks for that, but that was acceptable enough.
Since there was an automatic defense system, it would block critical hits.
Shin Hyeok nodded his head in satisfaction and moved on to the next item.
“So the bow and holy sword next?”
“Mm, have you thought about how to enhance both?”
“Yeah, I’ve got a rough idea.”
“What do you want to do?”
“I have the Sacred Will I got last time. I want to add other divine-type materials to it.”
“You’re thinking of sticking to basics. For the holy sword side.”
“Right.”
“Good, then shall we start selecting materials?”
They started with the holy sword among Shin Hyeok’s weapons.
Since it was the only one among Shin Hyeok’s weapons still stuck at unique+ grade, it needed to be done first.
Well, they planned to enhance everything from the holy sword to the bow this time anyway, so it was just a matter of order.
As soon as the equipment to enhance was decided, Sejin examined the Sacred Will that Shin Hyeok handed over from various angles, then quickly selected materials.
“Manryeon Steel, Highly Concentrated Holy Water, More Blessed Steel. These three will be the main materials along with the Sacred Will.”
“Isn’t that too many?”
“I’m definitely going to make it legendary+ grade, so it’s fine.”
“Mm, can’t be helped. It’s a weapon I’ll be using anyway…”
“Good, shall we start right away?”
The beginning of a major project involving four legendary-grade materials including the Sacred Will.
Even though a slight mistake could blow away all the materials, Sejin had a smile on his lips.
After all materials were prepared.
Sejin immediately threw ‘Se-jin Bang’s Well-Made Sacred Sword’ into the blazing furnace.
In other words, the unique+ grade holy sword that Shin Hyeok had been using well all this time.
Whoooooosh!
Confirming that even unique+ grade equipment couldn’t withstand the furnace’s heat and melted down to return to its original form, Sejin immediately began inputting materials step by step.
“Let’s start with Manryeon Steel that will serve as the framework.”
“Got it. Transcendence – Metallurgy.”
As soon as work began, Shin Hyeok also used his transcendence skill on metallurgy to assist Sejin’s work.
S-grade Metallurgy.
Something that didn’t exist anywhere else in the world.
A skill grade that only Sejin had uniquely reached.
Thanks to this, Shin Hyeok, now able to match Sejin’s assistance, watched the rapidly melting Manryeon Steel and input other materials at appropriate times.
More Blessed Steel and Highly Concentrated Holy Water mixed with the molten metal from the melted Manryeon Steel.
That wasn’t the end.
Various unique-grade materials were also added as needed to create a perfect work.
Eventually, when it reached its peak.
“Mold.”
“Ready.”
Sejin and Shin Hyeok began making the mold to contain the molten metal.
“Noeus. Please.”
-Leave it to me.
Using the high-ranking earth spirit Noeus to create the soil for making the mold.
“We have plenty of holy water, right?”
“Of course. Pour it all in.”
After generously pouring the unique-grade material holy water to make clay.
They quickly shaped the mold that would become the foundation of the holy sword.
“Flame.”
-I’ll bake it well~
Finally, the mold was hardened with flames from the high-ranking fire spirit Flame to complete it.
“Pouring?”
“Yeah.”
Into the completed mold, they poured molten metal containing various materials including the holy sword, refined steel, and concentrated holy water.
All this work was accomplished in an instant.
All the molten metal settled into the mold, and the lid was closed.
“Undiana. Please.”
-May the blessing of water dwell in your weapon.
The high-ranking water spirit Undiana’s water stream cooled the heat of the blazing hot mold.
While taking away the heat in the blink of an eye, it also prevented problems from sudden temperature changes.
When the two removed the mold’s lid, they could see it.
“…Beautiful.”
“Phew, let’s start the refining work right away.”
“Let’s do it. I’m itching to see the finished product.”
A weapon most befitting the name of holy sword was sleeping inside the mold.
Of course, this wasn’t the end.
Since refining work remained, both picked up hammers simultaneously without hesitation.
Clang! Bang! Clang! Bang! Clang! Bang!
The sound of hammering, fast, precise, and uniform, filled the workshop.
Despite both hammering together, their breathing was so perfect that they never overlapped even once.
Having finished the refining work in the blink of an eye, the two could see the perfectly reborn holy sword.
“Now, we need to do the finishing work. We need to infuse it with sacred will. You do it since you’re the owner.”
“Phew, I’m nervous.”
Finally, infusing the holy sword with sacred will would complete it.
Though it was finishing work that any craftsman would covet, Sejin handed it over to Shin Hyeok without any regret.
Shin Hyeok took a deep breath and placed sacred will that flowed with gentle light over the completed holy sword.
Whoooooosh!
Simultaneously, sacred light burst forth, filling the entire workshop.
But it wasn’t blinding light—it was light that made viewers feel warm and comfortable.
Where that light faded.
“…Excellent.”
“…I can tell without looking at the status window. This has surpassed masterpiece level. It’s my greatest work.”
Seeing the holy sword naturally and smoothly flowing with milky sacred power, both Shin Hyeok and Sejin nodded simultaneously.
A perfect work.
An object worthy of being called a masterpiece.
They could tell without looking at the status window that this was what the holy sword before them was.
Of course-
“So you’re not going to look?”
“Are you kidding? Of course we have to look.”
They still had to check the status window.
Sejin became serious at Shin Hyeok’s joke.
Shin Hyeok burst out laughing and held his stomach at that sight, but only briefly.
“Let’s look together. When I count to three, simultaneously.”
“Good. One, two, three!”
Both checked the holy sword’s status window simultaneously.
And they were shocked.
[True: Holy Sword]
* Legendary+ Grade
* Strength + 138, Stamina + 117, Sacred Power + 352
* Attack Power + 9,071
* Unique Skill: Holy Aura
* Unique Skill: Divine Bless
* Bound Equipment
* Grants the stat Sacred Power to the bound owner.
“It really came out properly, didn’t it?”
“Agreed. Perfect. Shin Hyeok, it came out faithful to basics just like you wanted.”
“The unique skills are good too. Holy Aura blocks evil things, increases basic recovery, auto-heals wounds, and Divine Bless is a buff skill that raises raw stats themselves.”
“Ha, good. This is it. This is why I can’t put down the hammer.”
It was disappointing that all stats disappeared, but instead other stats rose solidly.
The greatly increased attack power was basic, and the two additional unique skills were perfectly to Shin Hyeok’s liking.
Holy Aura was utility, Divine Bless was buff.
For Shin Hyeok who couldn’t use sacred magic yet, these two were the best skills.
‘With skills of this level, they’ll be plenty useful even when I visit Mansinjeon later to learn sacred magic.’
Especially since this efficiency wouldn’t change even when he learned sacred magic later, Shin Hyeok’s joy was even greater.
Of course, the joy ended there.
Pop!
“Drink, Hellscream… No, Shin Hyeok. Come make a second masterpiece with me.”
“No, hyung. This should still be a prototype, so why do you have it?”
“I asked Hyo-rin for it. It tastes terrible but the effect is certain, so it’s good for all-night work.”
“…Ha.”
It was because of Sejin, who like some dark mage was opening and handing over a potion bottle containing green liquid (fatigue recovery potion).
The color was strange, the smell was strange, and the skull-shaped smoke rising from the opened potion bottle seemed like something absolutely not to be consumed, but Shin Hyeok knew well that this was Hyo-rin’s special fatigue recovery potion.
Still a prototype that only Hyo-rin had been drinking, which Sejin had somehow secretly procured.
Having tried it once before and knowing that terrible taste, Shin Hyeok’s hand wouldn’t reach for the potion bottle-
“If you don’t want to drink it, it can’t be helped… Sigh, I just wanted to be a proper older brother and make decent equipment for my younger brother… I’m really fine, Shin Hyeok.”
“…I’ll drink it. I just have to drink it, right?”
At Sejin’s fake tear offensive with his unconvincing pitiful and pathetic act, Shin Hyeok suppressed his rising nausea and accepted the potion bottle.
Gulp!
“…Ugh! Let’s make it quickly.”
“Good!”
Having downed the tasteless fatigue recovery potion in one shot, Shin Hyeok looked at the happy Sejin and tilted his head.
“Why aren’t you drinking, hyung?”
“…Good things should be yielded to younger brother-“
“Come here.”
“Aaaaah!”
Only after catching the fleeing Sejin and shoving Hyo-rin’s special fatigue recovery potion into his mouth did their work continue.
