MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith-Novel



"Everything, huh?" For a while, Braum did not give the young man a response back. After all, the man had to think about what Valyr meant by the word' everything'.

"It'll be a while before I could get every piece of important information you might want on the Zeihardt clan. Is that fine with you?" Though, eventually, the man had sent a message back to the young man, to which the latter responded that it was expected of him to wait.

With how large the Zeihardt clan was, from what Julian had mentioned to him, Valyr was not surprised to obtain such an answer from him.

"Then again, I do have general information on the Zeihardt clan on hand." However, just as the young man thought that the two of them would now discuss the pricing of the information, Braum instead sent him quite the surprising message. "If you want, I could give that to you first while you wait for everything else."

"How much would it cost?" asked Valyr in a message, which Braum responded to near instantly. For some reason, while reading the latter's message, the young man could hear the man letting out a bit of laughter.

"Consider it as a favor," replied Braum. "After all, you promised to forge me an armor set, right?"

'And here I thought he'd forget.' Reading through the man's message, a wry smile adorned Valyr's face.

Mulling over it for a bit in silence, he eventually let out a low sigh, thinking that it was not a bad trade-off. After all, even general information on the Zeihardt clan would help him out a lot, right?

"How much would it cost for the information I'm requesting, then?" Drafting up plans in his mind on what kind of armor set he was going to forge, the young man eventually shifted their topic to payment.

"Taking into consideration the amount of time and effort it'll take me to gather your information…" Seeing these words pop up on the screen before him, Valyr prayed to the heavens that the cost was reasonable.

Thankfully, it was.

"Would three platinum cards be fine with you?" Reading this question from Braum as it popped up on his chat screen, the young man let out a long sigh of relief, thankful that he wasn't forced to forge another set of equipment to sell.

With that, Valyr responded that the price was fine with him, prompting the two of them to discuss about the incredibly specific information he wanted Braum to obtain about the Zeihardt clan.

"How long would it take you to get all of this information?" After the two of them had made a compromise, the young man shifted the topic once more, this time discussing the amount time it would take for Braum to complete it. 

Though he was fine with obtaining the information after the inheritance, Valyr wanted to at least clear up his list of tasks a bit before he had to enter the inheritance. After all, such thoughts would continue to linger in his mind in the inheritance as long as they were incomplete.

"Frankly, it'll take a few months at the very least to obtain all of the information you want." At these words, a wry smile adorned Valyr's face once more. "Aside from the fact that some of them are not so easily obtainable, I'm also the leader of the Imperial Production Guild's 3rd Reconnaissance Team. As a leader, I also have a lot of duties to fulfill."

"However, I could obtain a couple of the more important information and send it to you before you enter the Four Pillars' Inheritance." Though, once he had come across this message, the young man's expression underwent a 180 degree turn, turning into that of surprise and delight.

"That'd definitely be great." Sending a message back filled with his sincere gratitude, the two of them talked about other aspects of the deal for a bit more, such as where they would meet up and where the payment would be sent. 

After that was done, the two of them finally ended their conversation, with Braum reminding the young man about the armor set one last time.

"Welp. I guess that's one more task to add to the list." Letting out a faint sigh as he closed the screen before him, the young man brought up the plans he had been drafting earlier to the surface of his mind, thinking about which one Braum would prefer among them.

'Thankfully, he gave me a few hints.' Then again, it did not take long for him to find the armor set idea that would suit the man, tweaking a few things with it here and there to make it a better fit.

"Now that I think about it, I should really check out the guild's blueprint archives." Utilizing his blueprint creation skill to make the armor set a reality, a thought popped up into the young man's mind.

"Hmm… I'll ask Julian if I could take a look once I start experimenting." Making sure that there were no issues regarding the armor set, he then thought about the idea he had earlier while making his way to the Blacksmith Guild.

"Guess I'll forge Wells' spear at the same time, then," said the young man to himself, recalling the spear his friend wielded. 

Though it wasn't a bad spear by any means, the young man felt a bit guilty at the fact that his friend remained stuck with it, even though he had the capabilities to forge better ones.

Deciding to go with the blueprint he used for the spear that was sold in the auction for Wells' spear, the young man called for another attendant, telling them all of the things he would need to forge Braum's armor set and his friend's new spear.

Fortunately, unlike the materials he had requested for his armor, the materials to forge their equipment had arrived within a few minutes. With that, the drive to forge was ignited within Valyr in an instant, firing up the furnace as he decided to forge the spear first.

"Hmm…" Just as he chucked in the metal he would use for the spear tip into the furnace, a question popped up into the young man's mind.

"Should I forge a weapon for Edward as well?"
