The God's Games

Chapter 94: Father Joseph (Part 2)

Father Barry stepped aside to fully reveal Hanjun to the blacksmith.

The players helped explain, "Yes, that's right."

The blacksmith looked at Father Barry, then at Hanjun, and suddenly realized, "Oh, so you're..."

Father Barry quickly stopped him with a gesture.

The blacksmith realized, "Sorry, I was impulsive."

Hanjun was pleased with Father Barry's quick action and said to the blacksmith, "After Flower Deer explains how to handle things here, the ironworks will be under your care. But I need to emphasize one point: the ironworks is not your private property; it belong to Ulon Town. Father Barry will inform you of what needs to be done. You will be responsible for all the work inside the ironworks.

If any issues arise, Father Barry will come to you. Do you understand?"

Flower Deer stepped forward to explain, "The blast furnace does remove a lot of impurities from the ore. However, we haven't found a cleaner fuel yet, so we have to use coal. Unfortunately, the quarry's coal production is very low. Still, the iron produced from the blast furnace will be more convenient and efficient than other methods and will ensure better quality iron."

The players discussed and thought that since light-type magic has a spell for lighting and pure mana stones can store magic, it might be possible to replace burning coal with a powerful fire-type magic that was stored in a mana stone if they could learn fire-type magic.

Of course, this was just their guess, so they decided not to mention it for now.

The blacksmith didn't understand why burning coal needed to be clean, but he knew that if Flower Deer was right, he could forge sharper weapons!

He focused all his attention on the ironworks, and Flower Deer was happy to share all she knew and even showed him how to use the furnace.

Seeing the finished products, the blacksmith was eager to start working immediately.

Hanjun said, "First, make a batch of weapons. Let the heroes take the weapons and rescue the townspeople in the southern mountain. Then there will be more people to help with the furnace."
