Dean and Gilet was almost at the peak of the hill, his body was aching all over the act of climbing up this hill was strenuous for him at his current state that he almost passed out there and then, however Dean didn't let out even a groan and quietly went up the hill.
As they approach the peak of the hill Dean slowly saw the silhouette of the building was beginning to become a full image, after walking for a little more he got close enough and finally he saw the clear view of the building that was in front of him.
He stopped his steps and gaze upon the magnificence of the gigantic scale of the structure in front of him, with his mouth hung open he heard Gilet talk by his side "Do you see this? This is the "Magnificent Forging Hall" of the Black Turquoise academy, this is one of three best forging hall that every artificer in the Green Forest city want to work in.
"The materials that you will need to forge an artifact of up to Saint Grade can be found here, although some rare materials that's specific to the type of artifact that will be forge have to be procured directly by the artificer most of the basic material can be found here even some of the rare ones.
"This is the place that you will be working in, after you memorize everything in the book I gave you tonight you will officially become my helper in forging an artifact, but for now I only brought you here in order for you to get accustomed at the forging hall.
"I will not be with you all day and I need to go as I have other things to take care of, go inside the forging hall and find the man name Heto he will know what to do, go now and learn everything that you will need for tomorrow do not embarrass me." Saying all of this in a fast way he left just as fast as he spoke, even his black robes were fluttering as the wind started to blow.
Dean stood there all alone, in front of the Forging Hall with the cold wind on his face he proceeded to enter the hall. Getting closer he had started hearing the metal being hit by a hammer time and time again.
From the outside the clear sounds of the banging sounds of an iron being strike multiple times was like the sound of thunder up in the sky. If not for the fact that he knew what was near him, Dean would have thought that it would be raining later at noon time.
He made his decision and entered the forging hall, upon entering what welcomed him was the sight of various shelves that stretch in the entire first floor of the hall, he raised his heads and saw various signs hanging in the air.
The signs all had different words written on them, and with their different words the symbols that was drawn beside it was also different same with the color of every sign and shelves the signs were all hanged using a chains that had the design of two snakes coiling at one another.
The first five shelves near him were all colored black with a sign that says "Spirit Cores", and on its left were another five shelves colored Yellow and a sign that says "Earth elemental materials", there were other shelves that had different colors than the others and had different sign and name in it.
Many people run around the first floor of the hall young, middle-age, old, man or woman many were running around as they take the various materials that they needed from the shelves. All of these people were all wearing the same black clothes and as for the youths in the forging hall they all wore the same clothes.
Seeing that everyone had their own jobs and were all running around Dean walked around the area on his own trying not to be a bother and an obstacle for them to maneuver around. Walking, he saw a desk near the stairs that leads to the second floor, seeing the desk Dean walked there and spoke to the man who was seating on a chair behind the desk with a book on his right hand.
The man looked tall even when he was seated, his face was not that handsome but it was masculine enough for him to have a face to be proud of, however his back was slightly slouch and his clothes were a mess making him look like a slob.
"Excuse me, can I have moment of your time?" Dean bowed to the man behind the desk and greeted him in a polite manner.
Seeing the young man in front of him bow to greet him the man behind the desk, with an irritated voice he said "What do you want kid? If you're looking for the "Snow Pollen" we are out and will need another 2 days before we get a new batch of it, if you want to know the reason why it's taking too long then I only that some bandits are attacking our supplier and it will need another day for the students who took the mission of getting rid of this bandits another 2 days so wait until then, now scram kid I'm doing something important."
Dean listened to the long explanation of the man behind the desk, he didn't say anything to him as he didn't want sound rude and so seeing that he had finish talking Dean said "No I am not for that, what I am here for is to know where…"
"I know what you're going to say so listen up, go to the 4th shelf of the "Light Element Materials" and in the fourth row of that shelf you will find the "Light Sand" from the "Scorching Dessert, if you can't find it there then try your luck at the fifth shelf of the light elemental materials' third row if you still can't find anything go and find old Bing and asks him for more."
Dean was interrupted by another long explanation that he didn't need by the man behind the desk, he took another deep breath and thought that it was just another coincidence so he started to speak once again "No, it's not that also what I'm here for is to find the…"
"Oh it's not the Light Sand? Speak up then kid I don't have all day quickly and state what you need already." The man behind the desk took one glance at Dean at the side of his book from the first time since he started speaking and explaining things he was not ask about.
Dean massage his temples a little bit and murmured some things to himself "You're the one who spoke unnecessary things don't blame me", after calming himself down and tried to suppress the childlike behavior that was in him that wanted to snapped Dean spoke.
"I am looking for a person named Heto." Dean said I a gentle and polite tone.
The man behind the desk place his book down and said "Heto is not here unfortunately, go back later or better yet tomorrow." He surge Dean to leave and took the book up his face one more time and went back to reading his book.
"Is that so, well when will he get back? I really need to help me take a look around here and explain many things for me. Can you give a time frame when he'll be back for today?" knowing that he Heto was nowhere to be found, Dean tried to know just when he will come back.
It's not that Dean was acting persistent in getting a tour around the place with Heto because he was ordered to by Gilet earlier but because he also wanted to have a look around the place, even before he went inside the forging hall Dean was already intrigue as to what was inside the forging hall.
So when given a free tour inside the he didn't want to pass it up so he was acting this persistent for his own gain "When will he come back for today? I really need to learn how things work around here so I must see him, and I was ordered to look specifically for him."
The man behind the desk suddenly placed the book down completely on top of the desk and look at Dean, after a while of thinking he ask him "Who's the person that send you here?"
"It was a man named Gilet."
Hearing the name of Gilet the man behind the desk didn't even said anything back before jumping to the side of the desk, he took checked his robe and said "Come on now kid I don't have all day, let's finish this already."
Dean watch get ready and felt something was wrong here so he ask "Just for reference what was your name again?"
"It's Heto, come one now kid don't waste my time, I am reading something there come on now."
