Chapter 399 Knight’s Big Sword

After realizing how little he knew, Abel listened carefully to each one of the masters’ commentaries . As advanced as his “skills” were, he still had a lot to learn in terms of his “knowledge . ”

The more he listened to what the masters were saying, the more he was humbled by the profound knowledge that they were sharing . In fact, just by listening to them talk, he felt like he learned things that would have taken him several years to learn . Due to his status, it was very rare to get a chance to get an open lesson like this .

Unlike the other twenty masters, Abel never gave his opinion on any of the pieces that were passed around . The others tolerated this . They were still too shocked about his display just then, so they all tried to avoid having their confidence defeated by asking for his opinion .

Master Morry spoke, “With respect, Master Abel, we all know that you aren’t prepared for this activity . It’s actually a tradition for us to not tell the newcomers about the rules here . It’s meant so that they could show us what they are really capable of . Now that we’ve all known what you can do, I would still like to ask you to present us one of your pieces . ”

Abel just thought that he was left out because he was allowed to . After knowing that he still had to participate, he took out a knight’s big sword from his portal bracelet .

When the dwarven masters saw him doing this, they all had a smile on their faces when they saw him using a portal bracelet . As it turned out, he was very good with the elves . Otherwise, he would’ve never got his own portal bracelet, which was not meant to be sold to anyone .

As the knight’s big sword was placed on the table, Master Morry was the first one to examine it . After he was done, he told the dwarven knight that carried the 700-pound hammer to come over .

“Yes, Master Morry?” the dwarven knight came . He thought that he was going to be scolded, so he looked kind of worried .

“You! Hurry up and test this sword for me!” Master Morry said impatiently when he saw how timid and slow the dwarven knight was being

As long as you were a dwarf, even if you couldn’t forge, you were educated about the fundamentals of weapons . It was the same for this dwarven knight . As soon as he took the knight’s big sword, he could look into it with his combat qi .

When the dwarven knight inserted his combat qi into the big sword, the blade of the sword was instantly covered in frost .

Master Morry spoke out immediately when he saw this, “That’s 15, isn’t it? This sword can deal about 15 points of freezing damage . ”

Hoover spoke out, “Just give the big sword to me . I’ll know its stats once I’ve handled it . ”

“Oh, yeah, right!” the other master blacksmiths all laughed together, “A knight’s big sword for a knight’s head commander . How fitting!”

Hoover then took the sword over . He flicked its body with his finger, then a freezing qi suddenly engulfed him . His entire hand was almost frozen .

“Wow!” Hoover dropped the sword from his hand, then tried to get rid of the freezing qi with his own combat qi, “This is some crazy stuff going on here . ”

“How is it?” Master Morry asked .

“That’s 21 freezing damage she can deal . This beauty is just as strong as an official wizard’s ice element spell . If you can’t guard yourself with your combat qi, you are going to be caught in it for a very, very long time . ”

There was a part of Master Hoover’s explanation that wasn’t specific enough . Regarding combat qi guarding against the freezing qi, he was talking only about combat qi at least in his own current level . If the combat qi was anything below that of a knight’s commander, then the person in contact with this blade would’ve stood no chance against it .

After Hoover got his turn, all the masters began to examine this knight’s big sword . They were all very focused . It was like they wanted to learn something by looking into this blade .

“Alright, why don’t we all share our own inputs on this sword right here?” Master Morry said as he was the host .

“Uh, for starters, this is made of fine steel,” one of the master blacksmiths began to speak .

Another master blacksmith spoke, “Oh, yeah, fine steel . Master Abel, you didn’t happen to get the fine iron from a hematite ore, did

you?”

That wasn’t meant to be a joke . In fact, it was more of a statement than a question . After all, Abel really was just about to make a fine iron piece with his hands just then .

“It’s sharp, too . I can’t tell how much damage a fine steel sword could actually deal, but I’d say that it’d be at least 50 . ”

“Hey, do you guys notice something strange about this big sword? I think Maser Abel did a lacing on it, but I can’t find any slots on it . I can’t find any magic gemstones, either . ”

“Well, yeah . He has definitely laced it . If there aren’t any rune patterns on it, there’s no way that the sword could deal ice damage . ”

Despite all the commentaries that were made on the knight’s big sword, no one except Hoover could provide a stat on the amount of damage that it could do . Even then, he was wrong about the amount of freezing damage that it could deal .

Still, Abel was pretty surprised by how observants the masters were . It was not just the techniques of the Holy Continent that he had used on the knight’s big sword . He also integrated a lot of the stuff he learnt from the dark world . Apart from that, as wrong as these masters were with some of the stuff that they were saying, they were that not that far off either .

Finally, when all the master blacksmiths had their eyes on Abel, a smile appeared on his face .

Abel said with the knight’s big sword in his hand, “This blade can deal a damage of about 57 points . After I added a slot to it with my special technique, it can now deal a total of 21 freezing damage . ”

Then, after saying that, he placed the knight’s big sword back into his portal bracelet . All the master blacksmiths looked very disappointed .

“Please, Master Abel!” Hoover came in and asked, “I still have so many questions about that sword! Can I have a bit more time to look at it?”

“Oh . As long as you want, Master Hoover,” Abel said, then took the knight’s big sword out again . Since Hoover has saved his life before, he was never going to turn him down for something like this .

“Wow! Ha, ha ha! Thanks, Master Abel!” Hoover laughed . He didn’t expect Abel to do this much for him in front of the others, “Good on you! By the way, don’t worry about what you have in the Duchy of Carmel . I’ve got it all covered for you . ”

At the same time, all the human master blacksmiths started glaring at Hoover . The other masters didn’t know about it, but it was no secret that intermediate Wizard Morton, who was Abel’s mentor in wizardry, was currently living in the Duchy of Carmel . With this kind of connection in place, Hoover was bound to gain Abel’s favor at almost any given time .

Abel whispered to Hoover as he suddenly remembered something, “Uh, well, Master Hoover, there’s something that I’ve been meaning to ask you about . I’m kind of stuck somewhere between a knight’s commander and a knight’s head commander . I was hoping that you could help me to do something about

it . ”

Hoover’s eyes started widening for a second . He was starting to lose confidence when he heard about this . He was there when Abel just became a knight, and now only two years had passed, he was already asking to become a knight’s head commander .

Just what in the world? And this young man was also a master blacksmith and a wizard . If there was anything that Hoover could beat him at, it would be his progress as a knight . But now, even that was about to come to an end .
