“This looks terrible… Why are there so many holes in my workshop!” “Wait until you go downstairs.” Bernir was clutching his head while looking at the workplace he had created for himself. It started as a shabby shack but turned into a full-fledged smithy through the years. Roland had seen him constantly work on it after finishing the workload, it was like his own project and place that belonged to him. Now it had been partially destroyed during the Lich’s rampage, the chaotic mana had…-

“All things considered, this went better than expected, this amount of damage is indeed minor.” “I’m glad that the destruction of my home is considered ‘minor damage’, Lord Arthur.” Roland replied to Arthur while Morien and Myrtle listened in from the side. It was quite surprising for them to see someone acting in this fashion when talking to a noble. While he was inserting the proper titles here and there, it seemed he didn’t feel intimidated by the title. “Haha, I’ll be sure…

“Awright, kin someone dae something aboot that dog?” “Ah wonder how tis doggie tastes…” “It’s not a dog, it’s a Dire Ruby Wolf but usually their mana-controlling instrument isn’t this advanced, it must have gone through an interesting diet and you can certainly not eat it.” A handsome sun elf shrugged at the two dwarves from his party as they were looking in the direction of a ruby-encrusted monster. It belonged to the runesmith that lived here and at the moment he had delved…

“Are you sure we should be doing this?” “Yeah, the boss only told us to scout out the area from outside, he didn’t say that we should go in there…” “What the hell are you fuckers afraid of? Look at this place, the damn Lich is dead, you can see the bones everywhere.” “Yeah and we were just supposed to pick them up.” “Why would we take these scraps when the main dish is inside, do you have a brain in that fat head of yours?” “What the hell?” “Think about it,…

; ; “It’s a Lich core? The drop rate on these things was supposed to be super rare…” Roland looked at an uneven-looking dark green crystal. This was a core of a monster very similar to the ones that golems came equipped with. The biggest difference was the shape which instead of being circular looked like a misshapen chunk of ore. Even though this wasn’t a game the chances of a Lich-type monster having one that didn’t disintegrate after death was very low. “Could this be…

‘Me and my bright ideas should have just gone to the city and waited for those damn platinum adventurers instead…’ Roland was in a world of pain as he scoured down into his underground workshop. His right hand was broken in several places while his left had multiple cracked bones. When he tried to protect Agni from a certain death he had almost been the one to kick the can. He did not expect the beam attack from an injured Lich to be this devastating. If his class was not a prestige one with an…

“What’s that, it came from the direction of the forest… wait isn’t Wayland's workshop in that direction?” “It is my lord… but we should focus, the monsters are acting strange, why did they all stop moving?” A strange phenomenon was taking place outside of the city gates. The monsters that were moments before clamoring at the gate had stopped in their tracks. No one at first knew what could have garnered this response from them but soon enough the mushroom cloud in the distance told a…

An explosion of what some might call evil energy burst forth. It pushed a mass of collapsed stones to the side hitting the already broken trees. From under an angry-looking monster emerged, his eye sockets were burning with emerald flames. The rubble that was covering the monster started to melt while glowing red. The monster emerged from this magically produced hole while looking around. The annoying mechanical bugs and the stationary objects were still aiming their cannons toward this monster. The…

“It’s trying to destroy the magical cannons, don’t let it finish that spell!” A rain of arrows descended at a black-looking skeleton that was in the process of casting some type of spell. Before they could collide with it a large group of white skeletons appeared before it. Acting as a bone shield they deflected the projectiles even suffering destruction after their cores were either pierced or splashed with holy water. The initial salvo managed to get the magic monster out of casting the…

“Whose idea was it to not place traps in the tunnels?” “Uh… guild master you said that we should focus on making them sturdy enough first…” “...” An uncomfortable silence filled the room as a bunch of tier 2 thieves were looking at the cloaked figure shrouded in mystery. The person they were looking at was the thieves guild master that didn’t really show up around this place that much. Now that there were skeletal monsters going through the underground tunnels there was a…
