With his eyes ripped open, Benjamin stared at the man waiting for them in front of the door. Worried, the old man looked over to his son who was helping Katy and Sean out of the car, and it was quite apparent that Tony was feeling sick. "C’Mon, what’re you doing? Invite me in already; I’ve been waitin’ for an hour!" Greg exclaimed with a bright smile and began to laugh while placing his hand on his beer-belly. Outwardly, he seriously looked nothing like Benjamin in the slightest, but…

"Hmm, so you want to build actual huts in here?" Evalia asked after she heard the start of Eisen’s explanation, and the old man nodded his head. "Yeah, that would be pretty cool, wouldn’t it? Like, having this area as a little supply village, and then the actual dungeon starts deeper down." He suggested once more, and Evalia thought about it for a moment and then nodded her head. "That sounds like a good idea, yeah. I was thinking somethin’ like that as well — just the front as a safe space,…

While waiting for the glass-slices to cool off a bit, Eisen started working on something else so that he could finish the items for the glasses and monocles that he would be making. He unsummoned glory hole and replaced it with a regular forge that he could work metal with, before throwing a regular Mythril ingot into it. It was easy to make mana flow through to activate the actual enchantment, while being quite light and sturdy, so it was a pretty good choice for something small. Once it heated up…

The group of five then made their way over to Eisen’s workshop, where the old man immediately summoned his Staff from his soul storage and created the three furnaces he would need, the central furnace to melt the glass, the glory hole to keep the molten glass hot, and then the annealer to slowly cool it down. Behind him, Kiron and Komer were helping Eisen carry some of the materials that he needed, which were, for now at least, just three different ones. Silica sand, which is just a very fine…

"Your Legacy? Ah, the Core Guardian! You said it’s supposed to be an assistant or something, right?" Xenia asked the old man, who slowly nodded in response. "Mhm, as far as I know, yes. I’m sure it’s going to be helpful to have someone there all the time that can take care of any kind of issue immediately. But we first somewhat need to figure out how to get to the room with the core in it, right?" The old man answered as he opened the information windows for the dungeon, even pressing on different…

Back in the Meeting Room, Eisen looked at Fafnir with a grin, just working on a few different small items to give him any sort of experience, while the four other originals were sitting around him as the group of five was talking about random stuff. And then, a little while later, what they had been waiting for finally arrived. Fafnir leveled up again, and his body slowly grew larger and longer, while his claws and teeth also became sharper and longer as the small Wyrmling turned into a Child.…

Confused and surprised, Eisen looked over at the Demon-Orc Halfling next to him. "Brody, what do you mean we’re going to have a duel? When was that decided?" The old man asked, and Brody simply grinned back at him. "Just now, you geezer. Come on, it’ll be fun!" Brody laughed loudly, but Eisen just chuckled and shook his head. "I doubt that, honestly. It’s going to be over after a few seconds, after all." Eisen answered, but Brody shook his head. "Don’t be like that! Just come!" By jerking his…

"Fafnir? Sounds cute!" Bree exclaimed with excitement in her voice as she came closer and took a look at the small dragon as well, just like everyone else there did. But the tiny creature, in turn, chose to hide in one of the pockets of Eisen’s apron. "Come on, let’s try not to scare the little guy. He was only just born, after all." Eisen told them as he looked down and was soon faced with the glowing eyes of the small creature. "But it’s so cute!" Kyla yelled out, freaking out over Fafnir…

The very moment that Eisen noticed that the world around him had changed to the Soul Realm of the Dragon Embryo’s Soul, he couldn’t even attempt to ignore the creature in front of him. In the soul realm, this was the first time that he saw anything ’actually’ alive, although this was also the first time that he attempted to give a shape to a soul that wasn’t blank, and it by far had the highest ’Thought’ stat of any soul he’s seen and inspected. "An enraged soul..?" Eisen muttered to…

Benjamin sat in the bathroom for a few moments, merely trying to catch himself again. He didn’t know why he was suddenly so much worse compared to before, but he was. He was throwing up blood mixed with stomach acid, and his mouth was just completely overwhelmed by the taste of iron. Benjamin only threw up once, and he wasn’t actually feeling all that bad overall, just a bit weak. He wasn’t in pain, he wasn’t feeling dizzy, and he didn’t notice any difference to the day before, but his health…
