The day of the Divine Tower auction had arrived in the blink of an eye. Since Michael had acquired the divine portal and returned to the blacksmith guild, he had been diligently forging Arlen's artifacts, which were more aptly called weapons, alongside Rurik. The two blacksmiths worked tirelessly and learned much from each other.
Despite being a five-star blacksmith, Michael discovered many things he hadn't even learned from system. The lessons he learned from Rurik as a blacksmith and from Lane as an alchemist taught Michael that real-life experience played a significant role in becoming better at his specializations.
At that moment, Michael was getting ready to leave for the Divine Tower auction. Rurik had just emerged after taking a shower, wearing a fancy silver robe and carrying a cane. In contrast, Michael opted for a casual black shirt and pants, rolling his sleeves up to his elbows.
