Chapter 1018
After an unknown amount of time, Melissa stopped her movements, and a brand new blade appeared in her hand.
The bright and flawless sword was of high quality, but Melissa frowned, her face full of dissatisfaction.
"This quality... I'm afraid it can be used as a calming sword in many blacksmith shops in small places. Although the materials used are relatively cheap, it just proves the blacksmith's craftsmanship. It's really surprising that such a small town has a blacksmith of this level besides a famous school like Freya College."
Sophia, who is not very knowledgeable, couldn't help but praise it when she saw it. She wanted to hold the sword in her hand and play with it. The quality was really good.
Brooks City is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There is a Freya College and a hidden blacksmith family. Even Elaina grew up here. Sophia had to wonder if there was something hidden in this place that could improve luck. How come there are always so many excellent things appearing every day.
"It's broken."
However, Melissa, as a forger, said something very unsatisfactory, and threw the iron sword aside casually with other weapons of different qualities. This place is obviously the "trash can" in the forging room.
Melissa's words naturally puzzled Sophia. She didn't think there was anything wrong with such a sword. If it was released, it would definitely be a good product that many people would rush to buy.
But Melissa herself knew very well that she couldn't be distracted when she was forging iron just now. She was always paying attention to the situation on Elaina's side, so that her hand swinging the hammer was not so firm.
When she was in a better state, the swords made by Melissa would only be better. The iron sword she made in front of her was at most two-thirds of her usual work, and it was still far from the peak.
Compared with the past, Melissa's progress is really great. The reason is that Elaina has been supplying materials for forging, and both the blacksmith and Melissa have had a lot of opportunities to practice.
The more you practice, the better your skills will be. After all, many blacksmiths in this world are not afraid of not having talent, but lacking materials that can help them break through.
After all, even if you practice with an iron sword for a hundred years, you will only get an iron sword of excellent quality in the end. It is true that you can accumulate various basic skills, and basic skills are indeed very important.
But the materials and metals in this world are quite diverse. Many of them cannot be refined with ordinary forging thinking. Accumulating experience is a very necessary behavior.
The reputation of the blacksmith's family is very high, and even people from outside will come to entrust him to forge weapons or tools, but after all, it is still too far compared to those with backgrounds, and it is impossible to forge weapons with rare materials at will.
So in the days when Elena did not rise, the progress of the father and daughter of the blacksmith's family was really slow, after all, every day was a monotonous life and practice.
Until Elena began to collect various materials and handed them over to the two of them forging, the progress was really rapid.
Melissa was still young and had been chasing the so-called upper limit, so she didn't feel anything. But the old blacksmith was really impressed. He thought that his achievements in his life were already very high, and no matter how much he trained, he would not be much better than this.
As a result, looking back at his past self now, he only felt that he was too immature. Those works that he was once very proud of now looked like the works of a child.
"Take a break, try again next time, how about we go for tea? There are many things I want to discuss with you."
Seeing this, Elena didn't say too many words of comfort, because he knew Melissa's character very well. If he said something like Sophia, it was already good and there was no need to be so strict, I'm afraid Melissa would not be able to help but turn a face over.
Melissa's character has always been like this. While being very strict with others, she is even more harsh on herself, and never allows herself to use any excuses to cover up her mistakes or failures.
Using serious matters to distract Melissa's attention is indeed very effective. When she heard that there was something to discuss, she didn't dwell on her "failure".
Pulling Elena to the living room, Sophia looked at it and sighed and followed. She felt more and more that she was not suitable to stay here.
As guests, Elena and Sophia naturally sat on the chairs waiting to be entertained. Melissa wiped the sweat off her body and took out the treasured tea.
It was actually Elena who brought it. These high-quality teas were originally sent by Kodorev.
As an elf, Kodorev is reallyI like the taste of tea, so I made a big bag for Elena, and the bag looked like a sack.
Elena felt a little dizzy when she saw this scene. Even if the whole orphanage drank it together, they might not be able to finish it by the end of the year.
So one-third of it was taken to the blacksmith's house, and Melissa and the old blacksmith helped "share" it.
As a result, Elena came to visit and ended up drinking the same batch of tea.
But there was nothing to complain about. Kodorev's taste would not be bad, and these teas would definitely be drunk a hundred times without getting tired of it. Elena had been busy recently and had not tasted the taste of tea for a long time.
Everyone drank the hot tea, and Elena told Melissa what had happened recently as simply as possible in a few words.
Hearing Elena's experience, Melissa's expression was still very calm, but her eyes were changing with different brilliance.
Obviously, she had many reactions to everything Elena said, but she was not good at expressing it on her face.
Afterwards, Elena took out all the equipment that had been worn out after the battles these days. It looked quite miserable with dents here and there.
If you don't look carefully, it looks like a pile of broken copper and iron. If you are more hypocritical, you may not even look at it.
This time, Melissa's expression changed, and it became quite wonderful. Looking at these equipment that lacked maintenance and was used too roughly, a wave of anger surged directly into her heart.
Although it was not very obvious, Elena couldn't help shrinking her neck when she saw the change in the other party's expression, looking like she was afraid of being scolded.
Sophia couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene. Elena's look was really fresh, even Weiwei and Elena rarely saw it.
So it seems that Elena is not as strong as imagined. On the contrary, his personality is actually a bit soft.
