Chapter 1081: Chapter 1080 I'm Here To Hire You

*Tackle!~*

"!!!"

Sophie Alstreim's expression froze as her wrist was suddenly captured by a hand! Her nerves stiffened before her gaze fell on the face of the person who held her wrist.

Her pupils dilated!

It was none other than Alchemist Davis himself who grabbed her by the hand!

He already had his finger over his mouth, telling her not to struggle!

"..."

The next moment, Sophie Alstreim's inwardly screamed as she almost practically went crazy. She forcefully pulled her hand and retreated two-three steps while her expression was still one of disbelief.

She was alone in a room, a bed that was enough to accommodate two people, and a bath to clean themselves up! No matter how she saw it, she couldn't help but think that she was lured here!

She couldn't believe that Alchemist Davis chose to make her his woman at this moment!

Looking at her trembling figure, Davis raised his hand, trying to show that he didn't mean anything but that instead garnered a response.

"Ah! Alchemist Davis!~" Sophie Alstreim hurriedly blocked her heavily blushing face with two dainty yet refined arms that held a clamper and hammer before.

"Please don't...!, Ah!~ No! Don't misunderstand...!"

"It isn't as if I'm rejecting your advances... No, I'm not rejecting your advances... Eh? Wait..."

'What am I even saying!?' Sophie Alstreim inwardly screamed as she became engulfed by chaotic emotions.

"Ahh!~ I know that I was trying to earn you favor..."

"But... But... But... This is too soon!!! Ahhh!~"

As she moved back, she lost balance and fell over the chair, ending up being seated on it.

Davis pursed his lips in amusement. Before he could even explain himself, she went on with her misunderstanding but now that she became silent, he felt like he could finally open his mouth.

"There's no reason to be agitated because I'm a soul-body..." Davis pointed at himself.

Sophie Alstreim couldn't help but blink. Her heart was rapidly beating like crazy, but when she moved her arms from blocking her gaze, she finally looked at Alchemist Davis and realized that he was indeed a soul body.

"It... It looks so real..." Sophie Alstreim became entranced.

A soul body that looked so realistic before... She had never seen anyone possess such a soul-body among the younger generation, but she promptly recalled that this was a trait of Mature Soul Stage, making her understand the reason.

"Yes, that's why..." Davis shifted the direction of his finger and pointed at his crotch, "Even if I wanted to do something, I don't have one with me now. You can rest assured."

Sophie Alstreim went bright red at his vulgar usage of words. No, it wasn't vulgar but combined with his actions, it certainly was vulgar!

"Besides, I'm here to hire you."

"!!!"

Sophie Alstreim's expression froze again.

Davis could see that she was about to misunderstand that he was possibly treating her as a prostitute, so he quickly continued, "I want you to upgrade my scythe!"

"... Scythe?" Sophie Alstreim became confused before it dawned on her, "Alchemist Davis wants to hire me for my blacksmithing skills?"

"That's right! Glad you understood."

Sophie Alstreim gently sighed as she relaxed in the chair. So that's what this was all about... A commission request.

Fortunately, it seemed that the 'scythe' wasn't a nuance for something else. Otherwise, she had no idea what to do...

However, she quickly and panickingly stood up from the chair, understanding that she was arrogant and presumptuous to be even seated in front of Alchemist Davis.

Davis didn't mind, but he didn't ponder over it either, "I assume that you have another chunk of that Emerald Indic Ore?"

"Yes, I do..." Sophie Alstreim quickly answered, eager to redeem this embarrassment.

"Great! Do you have experience in forging a scythe?"

Sophie Alstreim nodded her head again.

"Oh? Really?"

"Yes, I learned how to forge scythes as I'm rather interested in challenging almost every weapon I have laid my eyes upon, but compared to other weapons, I lack a bit of confidence in this category."

"Oh... You are diligent, indeed!" Davis praised, "Then let me ask you the final question."

An emerald scythe appeared beside him as he held it with one of his hands. He held it with two before he handed it over to Sophie Alstreim.

"How is it? Do you think you can upgrade my Grieving Emerald Scythe with the Emerald Indic Steel you possess?"

Sophie Alstreim received it in her hands before she took a closer look at it. While she could finally understand the reason why the dagger she forged was named Grieving Emerald Scythe, she could see that this was undoubtedly a work of craftsmanship, but her eyes suddenly became wide!

"This... Isn't this scythe forged by Blacksmith Helix?"

"You know him?" Davis was astonished that she recognized.

"Blacksmith Helix was a guest blacksmith of our Alstreim Family, and because I wanted to learn about scythes at one point, I found his records stashed in the Blacksmith Library. It was not only scythes, but I also learned about the forging of many hidden weapons from reading his records! It was super helpful that it still remains in my impression!"

Sophie Alstreim's eyes gleamed, but she suddenly realized that she was being presumptuous again and calmed down.

Davis couldn't believe that she took reference and learned from the blacksmith who forged the Grieving Emerald Scythe itself!

Could there really be such a coincidence where a young lady of the Alstreim Family had somehow learned the forging methods of Blacksmith Helix, who was chased away by a few odd and hostile members?

Nevertheless, this also meant that the chances that she could successfully upgrade it just went up the roof!

"So? Do you think you can do it?" Davis asked as his eyes gleamed.

Initially, he knew that the chances that his scythe would be ruined remained high, but after hearing Sophie Alstreim's words, he was now even prepared to have his weapon ruined in the forging process!

After all, if he were to wait for a bit more time, the Grieving Emerald Scythe would soon become useless to him, and there were only a few blacksmiths who knew how to forge a scythe. Otherwise, he might've commissioned a King Grade Alchemist here to upgrade the Grieving Emerald Scythe for him.

Sophie Alstreim solemnly nodded her head, "If I were 'to forge a Low-Level King Grade Scythe' from the start, I would've declined, but if it's upgrading the scythe to Low-Level King Grade, I might've been able to do something. However, since I now know who the blacksmith of this weapon is, it becomes easier for me to upgrade because I can just follow that blacksmith's forging methods!"

"I think I have a sixty percent success rate to upgrade this scythe!"

Davis became satisfied with the chances, "Excellent, then I'd like to hire you to upgrade my Grieving Emerald Scythe!"

Sophie Alstreim became pleased. To be able to hand over the weapon despite knowing that she didn't have a high success rate meant that he somewhat trusted her skills. The words he used to praise her in the hall weren't just decoration.

It turned out to be genuine enough to convince her!
