The next few hours, the blacksmith and the automaton were working side by side and Seth did his best to converse with her. Nothing personal, he didn’t try to pry into Forgebrand either. It was a purely professional dialogue, as they made jewelry side by side. Although her specialty was jewelry and Seth had already inferred many of the things he asked about on his own, the conversation served as an affirmation of many of the blacksmith’s ideas. In some points, Sivri could even correct him and give…

“Delta actually lost 107 granaries, with ten being damaged and needing repair...” Mina read the news on her phone. Overnight, Delta had done a thorough investigation and gave a press conference in the morning about the current state of affairs. It seemed that several employees of the maintenance team had fled Delta after setting up arcane bombs in the granaries. There was no attempt to hide that this was a planned action to harm Delta. After the investigation, they also found several devices in other…

Under the strikes of his hammer, the crystalline material was filled with his magic power and became malleable. As the hammer struck, demonic runes took shape from Seth's unintelligible growls and fell onto the . The blacksmith folded the material several times, to make sure the demon's blessing permeated it evenly. Murmur's tune was surprisingly enjoyable for Seth, although it was hard on his throat.

---Minas Mar--- “Are you really going back to the workshop now?” Fin asked, lying in the bed beside him- “You have been staying longer, lately,” Mina commented from the other side. Seth nodded with a smile. “I’m sorry, but work has been fun lately and I keep forgetting the time,” the blacksmith answered with an apologetic smile. He was being honest, it all started when he got his hands on the collection of enchantments from Arget Nore. Apart from the basics such as master-tier Mana…

After his interview with Paolo, Seth was finally done with the castings, though the harvest was not very good. He had found a few people that were to his liking and the best candidates for now. There were three he currently preferred and some others like Paolo he wanted to keep in mind. As a candidate for the Jaws of Apep, there was Ortega, the current commander of the Oathguard. Previously he was the leader of the Oathguard's elite team when it was still smaller. As a knight his build was tall and wide…

---Arget Nore--- The preparation to exchange the native meat sacks for golems was a hot topic among all circles. Even the lowest skeleton soldiers didn't get tired of clattering with their jawbones about it. Although they paid a hefty price for the treaty, it was seen as a positive outcome by most. After the reveal of Spatia's involvement with Y-City, the undead became careful. Although Arget Nore could not fully compare to superpowers like Chrona or Spatia, they had no intention of backing down. The…

His heart quivered as he entered the embassy of Minas Mar. The day was finally here. Nervously, Marco adjusted his clothes. It was nothing fancy, or expensive. A simple button-up shirt and black trousers he got from a shop not far from the embassy. Looking forward to his audition, it more and more felt like he was going to a job interview. His thoughts kept revolving about the things he was going to say, or the things the other party was going to ask. What question would there be in a casting to gain the…

---Minas Palan--- “Marco, Paolo, how are you guys doing?“ James greeted the two. They were sitting in the cafeteria of Minas Palan, together with the rest of the party they joined when entering the Oathguard. Surprised they looked up at the figure of James and Jess. Since Lydia, the leader of Field Team 3 was currently on a special mission, the rest of Team 3 were working as Supervisors at the Holy Land. However, this didn't mean they were often in Minas Palan, as they kept accompanying parties to…

---Minas Mar--- The blacksmith was aiming for the alchemy laboratories when the person he wanted to talk to almost charged into him. “Seth!“ Evee exclaimed a little out of breath. “I felt a massive presence of death and it's moving north of Delta!“ A presence of death going north? The blacksmith halted for a moment, lifting his eyebrows. Then he realized what she was talking about. “It's great to see you, I was just on my way to you. I think I can calm your worries. Let's go to the meeting…

---Eastern Plains, New Hope-- "Admiral, the sensors picked up a settlement in the distance. We are also picking up massive heat signals grouped together close by," the man on the sensors exclaimed to the expressionless girl seated on the central chair of the bridge. "Signal everyone to follow. Set course for the settlement. Maybe we can stock up on rations there," she commanded with slight interest. According to the maps, they still had some ways to go before reaching Gamma. Since this was No Man's land,…
