Chapter 61: Exorcism
Chapter 61: Exorcism
Gazing at the mysterious ore, a black dagger made of an unknown dark metal, eighteen gold coins, seventeen silver coins, and a pile of bottles filled with poison and antidotes, Rain contemplated for a moment before deciding to keep the gold and silver coins.
He then sorted the poisons and antidotes into a wooden box and hid it under his bed.
Holding the mysterious ore, Rain weighed it in his hand, planning to consult with the blacksmith Boris about it tomorrow.
Could Boris be greedy? Rain wasn't worried about that at all, considering that the greatsword was his bread and butter.
Finally, he picked up the black dagger and plucked a strand of hair, placing it on the blade.
With a gentle blow, the hair was instantly sliced in two.
"Ouch! It can cut hair!"
"Diligence leads to success, indulgence to failure!"

The remaining 1 attribute point, which he had always kept in reserve, was now gone.
He had lost a crucial skill that could turn the tables.
The two were complementary to each other.
"Exorcism?"
Since the radiant stone had the special effect of 'exorcism,' Rain naturally wanted to infuse it into his greatsword.
"And one of them is the 'Radiant Stone Weapon,' which, when infused with radiant stones in a certain ratio, will cause massive damage to these evil beings when you swing it."
"I can't say for sure," Boris shook his head.
Rain looked puzzled, as this was the first time he had heard this name.
"Moreover, if you encounter these evil creatures, will you even have the chance to come back alive to ask me about it?"
"When radiant stones are fused into a weapon at a specific ratio, it gains the special ability of exorcism, making it extremely valuable."
Before Rain could ask about the function of the radiant stone, Boris had already started explaining enthusiastically.
"The previous increase in strength made performing the second stance easier, and now with further improvement in constitution, my endurance has also increased."
After dealing with the loot, Rain turned his attention to the status panel.
Boris rolled his eyes and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling, but my blacksmithing skills simply can't handle it."
Rain suddenly understood.
"Radiant Stone?"
"Yes, the Radiant Stone, it's very precious!"
"No rush, Uncle Boris, I have a question for you."
"However, my blacksmithing level is already over half, and my Night Watchman level is nearly two-thirds. If I focus on one of them for the next few days, I'll be able to earn another attribute point."
"What do you plan to learn today? Or should we forge some horseshoes?"
This made Rain's heart warm. At the same time, he noticed that the system notification showed an increased frequency in gaining experience for the Mammoth Breath Technique.
The next morning, Rain arrived early at the town's blacksmith shop. "Rain, you're here!" Boris greeted him with a smile.
"Uncle Boris, is it even more precious than your meteorite?"
After some thought, Rain decided to carry the dagger with him for self-defense. The greatsword was sometimes too conspicuous and might not be suitable for certain situations.
Of course, there was a time limit to practicing the breathing technique every day, and with Rain's current physical condition, he could only practice for an hour.
[Your skill, Mammoth Breath Technique, has improved. Experience gained: +2]
"In this world, some strange places give birth to skeletons, zombies, malevolent spirits, and other evil beings, or even the minions of demons and malevolent deities from other realms."
Therefore, Rain planned to continue his usual practice of the Mammoth Breath Technique.
The second movement resembled a Russian twist, and due to his rapid increase in strength, it had become easier to perform. However, he still couldn't maintain the stance for more than half an hour.
"It's not that I'm unwilling, but my forging skills are simply not up to the task."
It seemed Rain had found the right person.
[You practiced the Mammoth Breath Technique and gained insight!]
"It shouldn't be a problem."
However, Boris seemed to recognize this type of ore.
And this also means that Rain can now practice the third form of the Mammoth Breath Technique.
Name: Rain Kaelan
[Your skill, Mammoth Breath Technique, has improved. Experience +2]
Rain encountered another unfamiliar term.
The accelerated experience gain made Rain ponder.
However, his overall condition was still good due to the Constitution attribute points.
But today, when Rain practiced the second posture of the Mammoth Breath Technique, he immediately felt a difference.
"Uncle Boris, I haven't encountered any of the evil things you mentioned. Why is that?" Rain asked curiously.
But today, Rain persisted for twenty-seven minutes straight.
From the initial five minutes, he had improved to seventeen or eighteen minutes in the past two days.
This was very close to the half-hour requirement.
"But I heard that there was a blood sacrifice by heretics recently, so it's possible that evil has appeared in Mayst County."
"That's right, it's several times more valuable than Meteorite!" Boris nodded heavily.
Rain looked around, turned his back to the apprentices, and took out the mysterious ore emitting a hazy soft light from his pocket.
Rain nodded.

If he pushed any further, it would deplete his body and overdraw his potential.
Profession: Blacksmith lv1 (52/100)
Night Watch lv2 (207/300)
Not to mention its use, but such a small piece of ore is worth dozens of Imperial Gold Coins.
"Of course, there aren't any near Shiny Gold Town. The Empire and various churches have long since cleaned up the evil within the imperial territory."
The next second, he snapped out of his thoughts, first looking left and right, then pulling Rain into the storage room behind the blacksmith shop, eager to ask, "This is a Radiant Stone!! Rain, how did you find such a rare ore?"
"Yes, that's roughly how it is."
In just one hour, he gained 26 experience points, reaching Mammoth Breath Technique lv2 (77/300).
"Additionally, smelting Radiant Stone requires a higher temperature than smelting iron ore. Our blacksmith shop's furnace isn't hot enough."
Practicing the Mammoth Breath Technique improves Constitution, and the increase in Constitution also boosts the progress of the Mammoth Breath Technique.
Constitution: 9
Strength: 10
Agility: 11
Spirit: 11
Remaining Attribute Points: 0
Remaining Skill Points: 0
Smith's Strength lv3
Hammer Mastery lv1
Danger Sense lv1
Grizzly Sword Technique lv4 (0/1000)
This delighted Rain.
"Uncle Boris, can you infuse this Radiant Stone into the two-handed greatsword?"
"Yes, to exorcise evil. Rain, you should have heard of it," Boris said, looking at Rain.
So that's how it is.
Although Rain had been busy traveling, fighting, and even facing an assassination attempt throughout the day.
"Could it be that the significant improvement in my Constitution and Strength is the reason for the substantial boost in the effectiveness of my breath technique practice?"
"Ordinary weapons are hardly effective against these monsters. Only special weapons will work."
Rain felt a little disappointed.
Blacksmith Boris's eyes widened in surprise.
"If you want to infuse the Radiant Stone into the greatsword, you'll have to make a trip to the Capital City!" Boris suggested.
"Only the advanced blacksmith shops in the Capital City have high-temperature furnaces. Also, they have skilled swordsmiths who can help you infuse the Radiant Stone into the two-handed greatsword."
"The Capital City?"
Rain nodded, deep in thought.
