Its already 7 in the evening when I logged into my account and the familiar sensation of being dragged into the the other realm once again surged into me. Ad I woke up, I was back I to my avatar, Blade heart.
The first thing I decided to do is to open my inventory. I managed to grab lots of loot from the Dark Trents that I have killed yesterday but I didn't manage to look at them due to the throbbing pain in my head. After making sure that I was no longer afflicted with the weakness debuff, I checked the loot that I managed to grab.
Aside from the tree barks that is an ingredient for making staff and wands, there are 10 normal rarity weapon, 7 Rare Rarity weapon, 3 normal rarity armor and 13 scraps. Well, how lucky I am to get a few scraps. If normal players who didn't know the value of scraps get their hands on this amount of scraps, they will sell these to the NPCs and they would only fetch a few silver or copper coins. But in reality, depending on the scraps, they can be sold in the Auction for a lot of gold. In my past timeline, the most expensive scrap ever sold was bought for 5,000,000 gold due to the rarity of the scrap once forged which is a Mythical Rarity.
I checked the Scraps and seeing that most of them can be forged into Rare Weapons, I grinned. I never expected that this can occur to me. Selling these stuff when forged can fetch you lots of gold from beginner players who didn't managed to get a single Rare type weapon.
Looks like it is time for me to start my blacksmith profession. I entered the Blacksmith Profession in the past and I was a level 10 Superior during that time, almost there to reach the Master level. This time, I want to reach into the Mythical Mastery level, which is the Highest mastery. Profession mastery comes with a few levels. Newbie, Recruit, Expert, Superior, Master, Grandmaster, and Mythical Mastery. Each of them needed to be at level 10 to proceed to the next level of mastery, for example, you need to be at level 10 Newbie to become a level 1 Recruit.
I checked the weapons and armor worth selling. Some of the weapons for Swordsman which is a Sword, a dagger for Ninjas and Assassins, A staff for druid, A mace for Cleric and Holy Knight and a Bow for Hunters are good to sell in the market or sell them to Harmless Sparrow.

These items were good items with special skills. If not due to the fact that I want to earn gold to exchange it for yen, I won't be willing to sell it to them and just let my Versatile Weapon to devour them. The remaining two rare tier weapons are no use to me and moreover, has no special abilities. I know players tend to look for special in rare tiers. A rare tier with no special is considered inferior rare tier and are less quality products. My versatile weapon will do devour them.
When the Versatile Weapon devoured them, this time around, from Ryloz sword, it turned into another item, however a panel appeared in front of me.
"Versatile Weapon's customizable appearance panel unlocked!"
Huh? A customizable Panel? That is strange. Customizable panel only appear in weapons invented by blacksmiths. I once used it since I was a blacksmith that time and it really felt awesome designing your own weapon in your own way. Now, my Versatile Weapon has it?
"Would you like to customize the appearance of your weapon now or later?"
Yes/Later
I pushed the Later option. If I wanted to design it, I need fully focus on this which might cause me a day. Despite being easy as it sounds, designing is not an easy matter. Also, I have not yet tried the panel. Maybe after the transaction with Harmless Sparrow will give me a chance.
When the weapon did not give any glow anymore, it returned into the form of the Ryloz sword. However, its description is no longer the description of the weapon.

Looks like it no longer have its description after I canceled the alteration. However, the stats of the Versatile Weapon was quite a rise. Looking at the time, I decided to open the skill panel and open the Magician skill panel and clicked a skill in 3rd Tier.
"Teleport"(3rd Tier)
Cooldown: 1 hour
MP consumption: 300 Mp
Description: Allows the caster to move from one place that he or she have stepped foot on. A power only magicians have mastered.
I forgot to explain, after arriving the threshold of level 50, spell tiers are unlocked. The highest tier there is at the beginning will be 9th tier, but if you have done the class up at level 100, the highest tier is 15th tier which can be considered as Godly skill and consumes tremendous amount of mana.
Those skills I kept on using are all 1st tier skills, meaning they are too weak compared than the 3nd tier skills. However, improving them will increase their tiers.
The reason that there are 15 tiers is to allow players to challenge the stronger enemies which will appear in the next expansion. Its not really an exaggeration but sticking to 1st tier until reaching the next continent.
Since it is getting late, I cast the teleport skill and teleported to the Lizardmen village. A teleportation circle appeared beneath my feet and swallows me. My vision was filled with blinding light before I arrived in the center of the lizardmen village. Coincidentally, Harmless Sparrow and her guild mates in Blue Sky are also gathering in the center of the village. When I appeared in front of them, they were shocked to suddenly appear in front of them.
The more vigilant pulled their weapons immediately and attacked me. Of course, I am already prepared. I pulled my versatile weapon, changed it to a dual handgun, and simultaneously shot their weapons before they can even approach.
PENG! PENG! PENG!
Their weapons fell one by one.
"What the f*ck?"
Most of them wore shocks in their faces. They are all in level 15 and a mere player appeared out of nowhere and disarmed them all in just a single shot. Harmless Sparrow on the other hand also holds her weapon but she is also hesitant to do so. To avoid hostile reactions, I immediately spoke in a low voice.
"Greetings Ms. Sparrow. It is me, Bladeheart," I introduced myself as I hold my gun like an expert gunslinger do.
Everyone gasp a mouthful of air. On the other hand, Harmless Sparrow can sense my power. I can see that she have already practiced the principle of real magic but still inferior to my progress. She huff a mouthful of air and tried to look above my head to find my name though she failed to see it. I am on Incognito.
"How can we make sure that you are not a fake one? Many tried approaching us but nobody fits the real Bladeheart, moreover, you have blank name above your head," Flaming Cutie asked, holding out her dagger.
I grinned behind my mask and used Silent Sprint to her and pull out my weapon that have changed into a dagger. In split second, she felt the cold metal point of the dagger in her neck and whispered her ear.
"I have no obligation to answer that question. I only came here on whatever you really want to do," I whispered before returning to my first position when I just arrived.
Flaming Cutie holds her neck, she felt that she was really close to death and the person holding the dagger can kill her without hesitation.
"So, Harmless Sparrow right? What do you want? I am a busy person and I don't want to waste my time," I made my authority up in this situation.
"A straightforward guy, I see. Well, I will be straight, I want to know how you leveled up so fast. If there is a strategy, we wanted to buy it from you," Harmless Sparrow said.
I chuckled. Just as expected, they want to learn and obtain my leveling secret. Unfortunately, its no longer obtainable by them.
"Well, that is unfortunate, Miss Harmless Sparrow but I don't have any of those secrets you say," I calmly said.
"Lies! If you have said any alibis, then we might have believed it but your reason is not quite what we want. We can obtain your secret by torturing you. We know you can't log out here since its also a hostile area," Flaming Cutie pulled out her dagger.
"Hmm? Really? You think I have no capabilities of killing you all? Just so you know that killing you all back to level 0 is not impossible to me," I said without care.
"Stop it, we are here to get info, not an enemy," Harmless Sparrow said as she reprimand Flaming Cutie.
"I might have no info but I got a few equipment of Rare Tier quality. You all might want it though you need to be at least level 25 above to equip it. I know you all are in dire need of equipment since you are an upstarting guild," I said and pull out the panels of the weapons for them to see.
When Harmless Sparrow look into the stats of the weapons, she was stunned.
"Is... is this all of the equipment you held right now?" Harmless Sparrow asked.
"I have a few armors in Rare Tier too. You can all check them," and I pulled out the armors in rare tier and shows them on it.
Harmless Sparrow and the other guild members sucked in a mouthful of air. These are all Rare tiers! They also have a few abilities that are quite unique! How formidable is this guy anyway?! Rare tiers are quite hard to earn and Bladeheart calmly showed them like they are hotcakes. Harmless Sparrow immediately look at Bladeheart who is currently wearing the Mask of the Oni and Cloak of Darkness. This is no longer a human, this an Oni indeed.
