Chapter 99 Forging Hammers

Feeling his body warming up and strength increasing at an alarming rate, he doesn't encounter the issue of uncontrollable or irregular strength like those other adventurers after ranking up.After wearing his shirt, he appeared in the blacksmith shop after eating breakfast, picked the materials, grabbed the two hammers, and started dual-hammer forging technique.

After removing impurities from all monster items and the ores he brought from the dungeons,

Looking at the huge 1.7-meter metal thin pillar-like block almost reaching his height, it's one of the heaviest metals on this planet, the core metal. Just this 1.7-meter block weighs almost a thousand kilograms.

"First, I have to create my own exclusive magic-forging hammer. These old hammers don't work correctly on magic items," Eero muttered, looking at the old hammers in his hand. Made from similar metal, but lacking magic-conducted metals mixed inside, he is going to use them to forge a new magic hammer that suits his appetite.

"Also, I have Arcane resonance skill now. Probably using it, I can adjust magic veins in the magic materials now," Eero nodded thoughtfully. He decided to try it while forging a new hammer.

Eero then melted the pillar block in fire, started beating it up in order to remove impurities. The whole shop shook at each of his strikes.

He was surprised by the efficiency, looking at the compressed area of core metal lustering without impurities. His strength increased so much he can now even remove impurities with a few strikes only.

Slowly, under his unrelenting strikes, the metal block compressed and became extremely pure without any impurities. Even deep impurities were scattered by Eero using force technique.

He then added a small quantity of pure mithril and other magic-conducive metals he brought from the dungeon, also particles of adamantite metal, which is the second hardest metal in the world. His strength is not enough to forge adamantite as it requires a 6th level adventurer, but he brought small particle powder of adamantite from the guild in order to mix it with other metals using his force technique.

Then he started heating and beating the metal while activating his Arcane resonance and using his force technique to the utmost.

After a while, all the metal mixed under the constant force pressure. Eero then divided the metal into four sections: two small and two large, and started shaping the hammer structure he wanted to make.

After a while, a rectangular-shaped box condensed, while Eero's eyes filled with excitement, looking at dual veins in this metal: one is full white in his vision and the other is colorful. Using his Arcane resonance and lightning magic, he pierced those block veins and arranged them, also the other white force vein.

This hammer looks like Thor's rectangular hammer, but it's a bigger version. Its rectangular main body is 1 foot lengthy, 6 inches wide, 4 inches in height. Then there are four rectangular layers above 4 inches, each 0.5 inches and an inch smaller than the sides, with a round section in the perfect mid where he is going to equip the handle inside.

Eero smiled then started forging the next hammer. After a while, looking at both hammer main bodies with perfect same design and weight, he sighed in relief. His force technique is really hard to use; he was using Arcane resonance along with it, which is very exhausting.

While eating lunch, "Eero-kun, what are you making? You look so exhausted," Hestia asked curiously.

"Hammer," Eero replied calmly.

"Do you want me to help? I know a friend. If I ask her, she will definitely help you create the best weapon," Hestia suddenly said.

Eero glanced at her speechlessly, 'She is definitely going to kneel in dogza position to request her. I wonder how many days she will kneel. In anime, she kneeled three consequent days for a small knife.'

"What are you thinking, Eero-kun?" Hestia said, looking at him with her big eyes.

Eero glanced at her, then shook his head, replying solemnly, "No need to beg anyone. I can create a suitable weapon for myself."

Hestia startled, looking at his serious face, nodded her head, with a little timidity spreading through her heart. 'Why is he suddenly so serious and scary? I am not going to beg anyone. I am just requesting?' She thought to herself.

Eero stared at her for a while. Hestia became more nervous. 'I hope she doesn't start begging like in anime,' he thought to himself, then walked toward the forging area.

Hestia sighed in relief. 'Why am I suddenly so afraid of Eero-kun? I am a goddess; he is my familia. Why is my familia so different from others?' Instantly she was startled, then became depressed.

Eero then manufactured a 2 feet long and 3-inch round handle, a compact handle area. No matter how long these hammers are gripped in hand, no discomfort or tiredness will occur in the palm.

Picking up both hammers, feeling about 500 kg weight in each hand, Eero nodded thoughtfully, then glanced at the smooth surface of the hammers, started engraving inscription above them. Slowly, the whole hammer main bodies and handles were filled with runes.

Eero engraved those runes in a way they describe the whole nature of elements: Fire ????, Water ????, Wood ????, Metal ????, Wind ????️, Earth ????, Lightning⚡, Ice ????, Dark ????, Light ????.

Looking at dark black hammers, with silver runes, he activated his Lord of Thunder form; instantly, the runes turned purple, lightning flickered above the whole hammer surface.

Eero closed his eyes, feeling the hammer as if an extension of his body, opened his eyes, nodded thoughtfully, then the rune changed into a brown color. Hammer weight doubled. 'So Earth element affects the weight of the hammer,' Eero became thoughtful, then started another form.

Fire element heated up the hammer to an unimaginable degree; no need to use a stove, just one or two strikes will melt any metal.

Water element can be used with force technique for a better impurities removal process; ice freezes the metal which can be used for pulverizing the material.

Lightning element opens all the blocked veins inside the material, can convert low-level material into pure high-level material.

Wind element makes the hammer lighter.

As for Dark and Light, they don't have much effect on metal; in the future, he may be able to find their usage in the material.
