The air around becomes hot.

No, it gets burned.

The furnace that Angela lit was reminiscent of a small volcano.

An active volcano with magma bubbling and ready to explode at any time.

Dragon.

In order to process the leather of the red dragon, which has strong fire resistance, such an enormous amount of heat was needed.

Angela holds a hammer in her hand in the heat that makes it difficult to breathe.

“Now, look carefully.”

She struck the leather on the workbench with all her might with a hammer, her long hair flying.

Quaaaang!

Kim Do-jin clicks his tongue at the noise so loud that it’s hard to believe he just hit a piece of leather.

I was worried about her again.

The noise is this much even from a small distance away, so how painful it must be for her to hear it right in front of her nose.

Contrary to such concerns, Angela continued to strike the hammer, paying no heed to the echoing noise.

Quaaaang!

Quang!

By the time the number of hammer blows reached 500 in a heat where the air was barely breathable.

Something amazing happened right before my eyes.

Fuuuh-!

Bright red flames rose from the red leather that had been beaten by the hammer.

As if she had known in advance that this would happen, Angela skillfully turned her body to avoid the flames and asked Kim Do-jin in an excited tone.

“Did you see it? Did you see it?”

“Yes. I saw it… .”

I literally just looked.

Angela’s explanation continues.

“This leather resembles its owner and has a very eccentric personality.”

“Leather… Are you eccentric?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Each material also has its own personality.

Some materials are easily soluble in any fire and can be easily transformed or processed, while other materials have very difficult properties or characteristics and may never be processed until certain conditions are met.

Craftsmen used to compare this to personality.

“In his case, he is very arrogant and eccentric, perhaps because he is the skin of a dragon.”

It is basic that it is not easy to process due to its high flame resistance.

It is also highly resistant to blows and cannot even be scratched by a moderate hammer blow.

Even if it causes a scratch, it is a problem.

“When the shock builds up to the point where it gets on your nerves… !”

When she strikes the hammer again, flames erupt once more.

Fuuu!

“If you lose your temper.”

Now she can avoid it without any problem, but she had a hard time at first because of this.

In particular, the arms that hit the hammer and the face that looks down at the leather had to go through a lot of hardship.

If it hadn’t been for the saint’s healing, he would have had indelible scars on his arms and face.

Kim Do-jin, who vaguely noticed the painful process, frowned.

“… I think you can silence it by using words.”

This was a worry and a rebuke.

Like, why didn’t you call me to do such a dangerous job?

But Angela rejected his offer.

“No, you can’t do that. This is a necessary task.”

Kim Do-jin tilts his head.

“… Is this a necessary task?”

“Yes.”

She starts hammering again.

Quang!

Fuuu!

Leather that responds with bright red flames to the intense hammering that shakes the entire blacksmith shop.

She continued speaking with her eyes fixed on the leather.

“Don’t do anything, just watch.”

Pow!

“On leather.”

Fuuu!

“What changes.”

Quack!

“It will happen!”

Fuuu!

Pow!

Kim Do-jin blankly watches Angela as she continues hammering while avoiding the rising flames.

As time passed, changes came.

Grumble!

I became weak.

The size of the flames emitted by leather.

“Ah.”

Only then did I realize it.

What is the reason for that dangerous hammering?

“… It’s to empty the inside.”

Red dragon skin has extremely strong fire resistance.

And while such resistance acts as a tremendous advantage, it also acts as a disadvantage.

When it comes to things that Kim Do-jin and Angela have to make, it is the latter.

The leather, which is hot in itself, will arbitrarily change the magical power absorbed from nature into fire attribute.

She is deliberately putting out the flames to prevent such a phenomenon.

To completely remove the fire properties contained in the leather.

By the time I finally realized that fact.

“This is the end!”

Quang!

The final hammer blow hits the leather with a cry hotter than a furnace.

Then the leather also spit out flames as if it had been waiting.

Push shush… .

It was a very weak flame because all its power had already been used up.

She put down the hammer, lifted the leather, and showed it to Kim Do-jin.

“How about it?”

Leather has changed in many ways.

Because of hammering, the thickness became thinner, and as it became thinner, it became harder and more flexible.

Even with the sword sword, which is said to be able to cut anything, I wonder if it would take several strikes to completely cut it off.

There is something else that has changed more than anything else.

“The color has changed.”

First, the color of the leather changed from red to black.

“If you remove all fire resistance, it turns out like this.”

If the red color symbolized resistance to fire, it would not have been an incomprehensible change.

Rather, it would be correct to see it as a good change.

All they want to make is an imitation of ‘Black Stone’.

To live up to its name, the color of the finished product must be black.

“First, roll this leather into a round shape to make the inner skin.”

It is shaped by wrapping leather around an iron ball the size of a fist.

And to fix the shape, nails were driven into the area where leather meets leather.

However, the color of the nail was very unique.

A grayish-white color that emits a soft blue glow whenever exposed to light.

Kim Do-jin’s eyes widen as he sees this.

“That nail… , It’s not an ordinary nail, is it?”

As far as he knows, there is only one mineral in the world that emits such a brilliant color.

“Oh, this? It’s made of mithril.”

“… … .”

“The leather is so hard that ordinary nails won’t stick even if they die.”

It was quite a refreshing shock.

A mineral so valuable that it is not enough to make weapons and armor was created as nothing more than a nail.

I suddenly became curious.

“Did you anticipate this in advance and ask the saint for mithril?”

“That can’t be possible.”

Angela shakes her head.

“I just asked you to save it, just in case. If you want to mix it with the dragon’s by-product, it must be at least as good as mithril.”

She laughed bitterly.

“I didn’t know that it would only be used for driving nails.”

The work continues.

Nails made of mithril are driven in to fix the shape, and the remaining parts are connected using the highest quality adhesive made from slime.

Eventually, a sphere the size of a palm was completed.

“First, the first goal is completed.”

As she carefully placed the sphere on one side of the workbench, her eyes wandered somewhere.

What lies at the end of the line of sight is none other than the bones of a dragon.

“That’s next.”

The next task continues without a moment to take a breath.

The dragon’s bones are heated over a hot fire, struck with a hammer to remove the flames, and the shape is processed.

The completed form is a sphere slightly larger than the sphere made of leather just a moment ago.

That would be the outer shell that would be placed over the leather sphere.

It didn’t end there.

She immediately lowered the temperature of the furnace and processed the mithril to create a plate so thin that it had to penetrate the decimal point, then rolled the plate into a round shape and bent it around to finally create pipes of various shapes.

“Okay, now the preparation is complete.”

All that remains is assembly.

Drill holes in the sphere-shaped leather and insert the tubes you made earlier, one by one.

At first glance, it looks like it was put in randomly, but a shape was drawn in Kim Do-jin’s mind as he watched it.

The pipes were bent and inserted into various shapes, each forming several circles extending in different directions.

It moves freely between the inner and outer skin and continues to flow without interruption.

There is only one reason to insert that.

‘circulation.’

It is clear that it was designed to circulate the absorbed energy continuously.

And the purpose of that cycle is amplification.

Cold sweat flows.

The question from before raises its head again.

she said

We won’t know the results until they come out, so let’s make it happen first.

I had doubts about those words.

‘Is it true that no one really knows what the outcome will be?’

The intention and meaning are too clear and clear to say that the result is unknown?

A sphere is completed by inserting a tube into a given position without any error to complete its shape, and then finally covering the outer shell over it and completely filling the gap.

Angela held it out to Dojin Kim.

“Now, it’s your turn.”

okay.

Finally, one process remains.

Planting the energy of gluttony into this sphere.

Kim Do-jin took the sphere she held out and held it with a very nervous expression.

The size is roughly the size of two palms.

Despite using bone as the outer skin, it has a rough and rough texture that runs through the palm of your hand, just like any other ore.

Fear and curiosity flow through my veins at the same time.

He carefully removed a portion of Gluttony and carefully transferred it to the sphere in his hand.

And through the newly acquired power, the Word, he engraved a command on the Piece of Gluttony.

「Surp(吸).」

Suck it up.

Add one thing here.

“Circulation.”

So that energy can flow unobstructed and uninterrupted through the channels she designed.

The command engraved through words seeps into gluttony.

And finally the fake Black Stone, Dragon Stone, started working.

Faaah!

Magical energy swimming in a space with a radius of 10 meters is sucked into the Dragon Stone.

Angela did not notice this fact.

Even Kim Do-jin could not sense this.

Until I witnessed with my own eyes the magic around me being sucked out.

I was surprised again.

‘It was intentional, but I didn’t expect it to be this perfect.’

The magic power absorbed into the Dragon Stone soon begins to flow through the Mithril tube.

As the amount of magical power increases, the speed becomes steeper, and steeper speeds add strength to the magical power.

The momentum gained in this way absorbs magical energy from a wider range.

10m to 30m.

30m to 50m.

Finally reaching 100m.

No matter how gluttonous you are, hunger does not always end.

Just as you did when you used it, gluttony also causes you to feel full when you eat it.

For Dragonstone, now was the time.

Now that I have devoured the magic power flowing over an absurd range of 100m.

Drop out of school!

Dragon Stone was completed with a glutton complaining that he would not eat any more.

A black stone that dazzles opponents with waves of enormous power just by looking at it.

Likewise, Kim Do-jin, who looked down at the Dragon Stone, which was attracting attention by emitting waves of power in the surrounding area, realized as he heard voices full of joy and madness coming from next to him.

“This is it… . With this, we can get rid of all the trash that is overflowing in this world at once!”

“Uh, um.”

An imitation that surpasses the original was born.
