Chapter 8 - Goibniu

I have been observing this child of mine since he came back from the incident, but I didn't notice anything wrong or new to him.

I thought he will be more concerned about his new skill when I updated his status in the clinic or at least take revenge on those scummy adventurers.

However, I forgot how strict he is in his schedule because he mainly just stayed in his workshop the whole day and never misses his daily morning runs.

But how badly mistaken I was!

After looking at his status I never thought that you can go beyond the S tier, but he received more than that and reach the maximum EX!

Maybe I can associate it with his skill Perfectus, but he received a development ability while he is still a level 1!

Does this mean with his status alone he can be considered a level 2?!

He even had magic which he didn't receive even after 5 years of toiling in the dungeon, but not only that 2 new skills also appear!

If he doesn't go back almost dying every night then it won't explain anything.

But looking at his pristine skin and glistening body no one would think that he.is.a.black.smith!

I don't think normal can be applied to him anymore but if this kid hides anything from me then forget about diving into the dungeon ill be grounding him to use his newfound growth in forging.

Hephaestus already had many talented children and I think it's my turn to have another one.

He looks at David who is dumbly looking at his paper,

'Does he think that I didn't notice how he was looking for a way out of this? I know you barely had a friend, so it's futile to hide anything from a god!'

The god of forging smugly looks at him while thinking that a smack or pinch is the best way to handle this kid from now on.

'Maybe I should make a horsewhip for him'

---------

David was looking at the piece of paper in his hand thinking that it was already the expected outcome, but he forgot the consequence of this.

But even if he hid it then he can't update his status anymore.

He stole a glance at his god and he saw him smirk at him, so he can only give up and tell him something, or else he would skin him alive.

He silently scrub the floor when he was planning to do a dogeza with his feet and decided not to do it to show his sincerity.

His god knows how much he hates being dirtied, bringing an umbrella when he ran to protect against rain and the sun is evidence enough.

"Umm, I can explain…"

He started while slowly performing a dogeza on the floor.

"Skip it David or ill make you lick that floor while you're on it"

David stood properly after his god's treat.

He knows that his god only talks when he had to but with how much he talks in this short period of time, it shows how angry he was so instead of hiding anything he decided to just do it and be done with it.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

-------------

Two copies of himself appear beside him, I don't even know which is the real one considering I am a god myself

"So this is your new magic trick, huh?"

He asked while looking intently at the one copy who stood fidgeting in discomfort

"So you're saying this is you but not a real you?"

David just nod while scratching his head

He was surprised by the kids' frankness but considering he was his god he was quite happy for his honesty.

"Yes teacher they also received your Falna so whatever they experienced is transferred to me"

Goibniu contemplates for a while thinking how ridiculous this ability is.

"So that explains how quick you are, even 3 people together can't be this fast. It's because you're not scared of dying"

An adventurer looking for an adventure can experience more than those who are not.

He remembered how this child takes 5 whole years for just a single S in his status because he had the help from other adventurers he hired.

Velox Discipuli and Champion is a result of Falna's mistakes thinking that he is doing what a single person can't normally do,

but what I don't understand is the development ability Invoker.

"I think It's because I am imitating a few people to develop my skill and techniques giving me this ability to really use theirs."

"And I think my stats alone is considered overwhelming even to normal level 2 adventure, so I already received one despite a level 1."

He explained, and I see his point, but there's still a punishment for him, or else he will think that ill easily forgive him.

"Ok but because you're lying and hiding something from your god, I will give you a punishment"

"You have to obtain Hephaestus's heart!"

in·voke

/inˈvōk/verb

cite or appeal to (someone or something) as an authority for an action or in support of an argument.

------------

I used invoke rather than evoke because of the law of League of Legends regarding summoning their avatar, or else a godlike being like Sol can just ignore his evoke
