Akash looked up and saw the large hammer sign. He walked inside and Estella saw him she rushed over and she smiled brightly.
How could she possibly not be curious towards this guy? At the age of nine, he became a second rank blacksmith! How did he accomplish this feat?
Reportedly, he had already broken the headquarters record.
The record for the youngest first rank blacksmith in the Blacksmith's Association was held by their current president with a record of eight years old. However, the president had become a second rank blacksmith at eleven years old. The president was slower than Akash by two years!
The Association highly valued this child and had ordered the employees to immediately bring him up the tower as soon as he arrived.
"Hello Sister Estella."
"Hello little one how are you?"
"I am good!"
"You really are formidable. I heard you passed the second rank blacksmith test."
"No way I was just lucky!"
"You are so young but so modest not many kids have that kind of mind set," Estella said in a kind manner.
"Big Sister, can I get my badge."
"You will get it just relax and don't worry to much about it."
"Alright thanks anyway."
The elevator ascended quickly and when it reached the top floor, Akash's ears hadn't managed to adjust yet. However, he simply shook his head a few times and was able to recover.
Akash was greeted by a wide view of the horizon the moment he stepped out of the elevator.
The walls were all made of glass, and at this height, he was able to see nearly half of Eastsea City. A great number of skyscrapers littered the city, just like a steel forest. On the other side, was a great number of plant cover, bringing vitality to the city.
Jayden was in front of everyone else this whole day he has been waiting for this boy who brought him a surprise. Not only that he wanted to see this boy when his eyes landed on the boy he couldn't believe how handsome this boy was.
Samuel was also in his office and was following right behind him. If the others in the Blacksmith's Association knew that these two figures had waited a whole day for a child, they wouldn't even know what to think.
Right behind these two figures, was precisely Mu Xi.
"President!" Estella stood up and greeted Jayden respectfully.
Jayden smiled and nodded. The next moment, his gaze fell on Akash.
When Akash heard Estella call him the President, he had stood up and looked at Samuel.
"Akash this is the president of our blacksmith company Jayden Nguyen."
"Hello president."
"It's you?" An astonished voice came from Harper, who was at Jayden's side. To Harper, this was the guy who had stolen all of the limelight from her. In fact, this was the guy who stole the limelight from all the blacksmiths of his generation.
Akash eyes widened It's that rude rich girl she is actually a blacksmith. Akash had a bad feeling about this and he hated the idea.
"Harper, are you acquainted with each other?" Jayden asked
Harper looked at Akash.
"We're not acquainted. But it seems we attend the same academy."
"What grade are you Akash?"
"I entered the academy as a new student this year. I'm in the first grade, class five."
When she heard the two words 'class five', Harper expression immediately revealed a trace of disdain. Naturally, she knew what class five represented. It was a class full of good-for-nothings who could never become a Soul Grand master.
However, Jayden's attitude didn't change when he heard what class Akash was in.
"I heard from Samuel that you passed the second rank test. That's truly a wonderful achievement. You should know that you've set a new record in the Blacksmith's Association. We truly feel that you are worthy of being our successor!"
"It was really nothing but Uncle President can I um get my budge I want to start doing task," Akash said.
"Of course you can," Samuel said.
"The President waited for you the whole day in order to personally give you your badge."
Estella had already walked over from the side, carrying a silver tray with a red cloth on top. And on top of the cloth, was a badge.
The badge was in the shape of a hexagon, with a blue background, a protruding hammer and two white stars embedded into it.
Regardless of whether it was a reu mecha craftsmen, a blacksmith, or even a technician, their rank badges all looked about the same. First and second rank badges all had blue backgrounds and white stars. It was only at the third rank that there would be change.
"Stop it right there come here so you are Akash right well compete with-"
"Anyway Akash Samuel will take you to a place where the blacksmith mission. You are the birth of new life so make sure you work hard if you need any help you can always ask me kiddo."
