Chapter 24 - Crafting

"By the gods! What happened?" asked the guard captain.

"I just overestimated myself, that's all," Aizen then hissed as the stinging pain worsened. Sitting on his back on the wooden walls while biting his lower lips.

"Here, a health potion. It's my last," the guard captain then gave him a vial.

"Thanks," Aizen immediately gulped it all down and then felt that the pain subsided.

Aizen then stood up and then entered the gates. Closing it shut as he entered. Aizen then went to the Crafting tent, near the enchanting tent that they had. It was then, a prompt appeared.

With his skills all put up, Aizen immediately crafted items for his helping the village.

He crafted torches that needed cloth, sticks, and oil. Crafting 10 of them and giving them to the guards later on.

He immediately crafted two rings in the forge and a necklace. Smelting only iron then forged them on the mold. Making them would be a very rewarding experience for him. They would get enchanted later on.

Aizen then crafted bows and arrows next. He bent the wood on the fire and then recurved it. Adding the bowstring on the bow. Arrows were crafted too with iron tip for the moment and feathers on the bottom.

Four quivers of arrows were made.

Aizen immediately crafted wooden shields for the meantime. With the hardwood sliced to boards and an encasing of an iron round frame that was made to hold the wooden boards were forged. Making seven shields in the process.

Next were daggers and throwing knives. Three daggers were forged and three belts of throwing knives with five of them were made.

After it, he crafted javelins with six pouches. Making the tip made of iron in the forge and then chiseling the wooden poles. Also, six wooden spears were made with iron tips.

Next was the tent and bedroll that Aizen deeply wished to create. With four ropes and animal skins, he sewed them as well as the bedroll.

As for the leather, he tanned it in the tannery and created leather armor. Making him quite busy at the moment.

Well, he saved the most burdensome for the last. He forged iron armor and great swords as well as axe; both one-handed and two-handed.

With it, he was finished. He immediately went to the guards.

Next was the necklace. He chose the attack speed enchantment that gives a 10% faster attack speed. Equipping it all, he then watched his inventory and character sheet.
