Chapter 24: Chapter 24: System blessing

I quickly walked near the furnace, placing the anvil a bit further in front of the furnace as the king looked at it surprised.

'I'll accept it even if it changes much. If it's useful it will certainly pay off.'

The system light fell on me once again in accordance with my decision, allowing the king to notice a significant change, one seen before in a different person but long forgotten in his vast memories.

"Why does your right eye have a golden star in it?"

"It seems the system has gifted me a skill, father!" I shouted happily proud of such a feat, even though there hadn't been much accomplished, however, to those fairies who never advanced in science this much must have been worth something.

"Which one?" He questioned me knowing the name of some of the skills from other fairies.

"I'll check it right away," I opened the player status quickly and excitedly with eyes brimming with curiosity and joy, opening up the new section of information in it.

| Skills(+) | Traits(+) | Job Skills(+) |

Job Skills:
FF: Golden eye - Mastery: 0%.

"Apparently it's a job skill named golden eye?" I turned the gaze from the screen to him who nodded to the sides disappointed.

"I'm sorry dear. That one is not so good. There're some fairies with it, try to focus your eyes on a tool and you'll understand."

Upon hearing those words my happiness vanished but nonetheless, I followed his advice thoroughly.

Thus, I took a glimpse at the anvil, noticing letters, colors, and numbers, and then it all joined together becoming clear, proper and organized.

'Anvil(F) Durability 200/200.' 

Without time to waste and with my heart racing, I turned my gaze back to the furnace focusing on it.

'Furnace(F) Durability 200/200.'

The lost happiness instantly returned and words filled with a hint of it flowed entirely.

"Father this is incredibly useful! I'll be able to see how bad or good the things I use are, equip bow."

The king grew confused as it appeared in my hand, both eyes gazed upon it.

'Bow(F) +2 Attack, Durability 100/100.'

"It even works on weapons, this is perfect!" I shouted in happiness surprising my father further making him scratch his head hair a little. Feeling disoriented as he tried to understand on his own why was I so happy about this new skill when others hadn't been. 

Thus, I explained, after noticing his confusion.

"Imagine this scenario father. Our army goes out and fights our enemies. Then, when they return, people with this eye can check all the weapons and know which ones they have to fix!"

"Oh!" As if a light bulb appeared inside his brain giving light after 10 thousand hamsters ran on countless wheels providing energy for this realization to happen, he understood just how useful of an eye it was.

"That's fascinating... indeed Flamerah!"

Remembering the reason why he came here, he added further. "Mother and I will meet the council of the fairies soon. Would you like to join us?"

"What, who?" I questioned confused as my head tilted slightly to the side making it look innocent and childish.

"A reunion between the advisors of the forest. They are mostly the oldest and wisest of the fairies, and they've helped the different generations of the forest, and hold a really big influence among the nobles as their families are at the peak in size and importance. In a way, equal to us the royal family."

"Sure, I'll tag along to teach them."

Once he heard such words unsettledness was born inside of him. But then he remembered my speech, figuring there was a possibility for that to be true. After all, I was blessed by a higher entity that everyone respected and adored. This was further enhanced by the fact, that I was born from a strange-colored indigo flower. In the entire history of the fairies such had never happened, thus it accounted for something, a miracle at the very least.

"Do be humble to them as they hold a part of the forest territory and without their aide, your wish won't come true," he nodded slightly with a serious expression as if warning me to not forget such words.

"I understand father. I'll do what must be done, and accomplish that which is necessary to achieve."

Followed by such words I went into thought, taking his advice into consideration in a twisted way.

'I'll for sure make them submit to me as they seem to hold enough influence to annoy my ruling in the future that is to come.'

"Good," he lightly tapped my shoulder a few times, treating me like a young man.

"Have you ever ventured outside father?" I asked curiously as I wanted to know more about this world.

"Wait a moment," he went off somewhere bringing back two wooden chairs which they used to take a seat.

"Ah... this is much better." His head nodded as he concluded that his feet were hurting from walking everywhere for some days now preparing everything for the great ceremony of the day before.

"I agree, didn't think about that."

My father laughed upon hearing these words, further realizing that I truly was still a child, just with a bit more intellectual than most.

"You see Flamerah... whenever fairies try to venture outside they usually end up in a fight with some enemy and the system may make us fight in a very specific way where the enemy may end up having the advantage. Not only that but they are also bigger and stronger than us."

"What? How come? I'm pretty sure that-"

He interrupted me, explaining what had happened before.

"The monsters I've heard fairies facing, use mainly physical attacks, and we use magical ones that take a while to activate and since we have low health we die before being able to hit our enemies."

I made a muttering sound in agreement with him waiting for more.

"Only times I heard monsters dying was when many fairies ganged up on a single one and even then there were injuries."

"It would certainly be easier with some protection on our skin. But for example my ring father, it gives me one extra strength and one agility."

The eyes of the king widened upon such information filled with some surprise, after all, he had never seen such a thing before. Without holding himself back, his black chocolate-looking lips opened to voice his intent.

"If only you could reproduce those then..."

"True! It would help all of us! For the time being, I'll be trying to learn more about it with these two pieces of stone."

I pointed at both, "I present to you father the furnace and the anvil."

He laughed as I treated them as if they were alive.
