Chapter 193: First Enchantment

They stopped in front of a medium-sized shop with an anvil symbol. It was the weapon shop Deulara had opened up in the capital, and sadly it was not seeing many customers lately.

The commerce of normal weapons was not in demand anymore, as most people who looked up to weapons were also adventurers with certain knowledge about magic. Therefore, they would look for magical weapons.

Magical weapons were not just enchanted weapons but weapons made of rare materials, which were harder to find and deal with during the creation process.

Arthur went in with Deulara to see the insides of the shop. Unlike before, Arthur now wore a robe again, and with his new strength, he looked even more mysterious.

Deulara opened up her shop and showed Arthur around. It had the main room where most of the weapons were displayed, basically the only room available for the common customer.

There was a bathroom, but that was only used by Deulara and those who worked under her, which were zero at the moment. A forging room where she created all the weapons of her shop, a storage room, and an empty room where Deulara planned to be her bedroom.

She did not make the bedroom yet because Arthur let her stay in his villa and never said anything about her moving out. It seemed he did not care if she lived there, and Deulara did not have the money to buy the furniture for her bedroom.

While she was showing the shop, the bell rang, and a customer entered her shop. It was a small green goblin with a staff and a long hat.

Arthur knew just by looking at him that it was a mage. But why would a mage look for a weapon in Deulara’s shop?

“Welcome!” Deulara said.

“Hello! This place sells magical items?”

The moment the goblin said that sadness was evident on Deulara’s face. It was a phrase she heard every day, and there was nothing she could do about it now.

“Depends. What are you looking for?” Arthur said.

“Well, maybe an accessory? A ring or a necklace.”

Arthur could tell the mage was not that strong, maybe at the third circle, which meant he was capable of enchanting an accessory suited for that goblin.

“We don’t have it now, but you can come and pick tomorrow. Just tell me your element so we can get you the right accessory.”

The goblin was delighted after hearing, as he did not expect that place to have a magical accessory, as these were rarer than weapons.

“Fire element. I will look forward to it then!” The goblin said as he left the shop with a smile.

“How will we get him a magical fire accessory?” Deulara said.

“I will make one for you. Be right back,” Arthur said.

He left the shop after that, going to another shop afterward.

With his knowledge, enchanting a decent accessory for that goblin would not be a problem, but he still needed a ring or a necklace to enchant, as Deulara did not craft these items.

So, he went to a jewelry shop to buy a few pieces.

“You will take all of them?” The shop worker was shocked.

Arthur bought many rings and necklaces from the jewelry shop, showcasing his wealth. The attendant packed everything up with a smile, curious about the identity of such a rich customer.

After returning to Deulara’s shop, Arthur went to the room where she crafted the items, saying he would now start the enchanting process.

He had never tried it before, but a nine-circle mage’s strength would be quite helpful in creating a magical accessory.

“First, pick the right runes.”

The enchanting process consisted in using one’s mana or Spiritual Force to draw specific runes in the target item, creating the wanted effect.

Each rune had an effect, and combined runes generated new effects. For that accessory, for example, Arthur wanted to draw three fire runes on the ring, amplifying its effects.

These runes would help the user when casting fire spells, increasing their power and diminishing the amount of mana used to cast them.

That alone made magical accessories expensive. Arthur was ready to get all the money he could from that goblin.

Arthur put a small ring on a table and started his enchanting process. He carved specific runes on that ring using his vast Spiritual Force with clean moves.

The once plain ring now had three different sets of runic words that exhaled a mysterious power. It was not an accessory Arthur would use for himself, so the amount of effort he put into its creation was minimal.

Also, if he started to create unique magical accessories, then Deulara’s shop could get in trouble. Though he did not believe there was a single person capable of threatening him, it was better to be safe.

After one hour, Arthur left the room, shocking Deulara again.

“Did you enchant it this fast? This is… incredible. Can I see it?”

“Of course.”

Arthur tossed her the, and even she, that was not a fire-type mage, could tell it was an extraordinary item.

He did a quick test before leaving to see if the item was truly decent, and it was! Arthur was happy with it and wanted to learn more about enchanting so that he could make his accessories and weapons, which would be far better than what he had made for the goblin.

“This is an extraordinary ring. With this, I am certain to earn a lot of money!” Deulara said.

She could not hold her happiness. It had been tough times for her, still better than her shop in Misty Town, but not enough for her to have a decent life.

Deulara was only now starting on her magical journey, reaching the second circle and also initiating her studies about enchanting.

“It is, indeed. I will see how the goblin reacts tomorrow and ask him to share this with his fellow mages, which will bring us more customers. Then, I will enchant the rest of the items to sell, making you a good profit. Of course, I want a share of it if possible.”

“Don’t worry, Akhur. Also, can you teach me how to enchant?”

Arthur looked at her and could not find an answer. He was not that good with enchanting, and the only reason he could easily create those items was the gap in strength.

Those accessories were at most good for fourth or maybe fifth circle mages, which was already extraordinary. But compared to his strength in the ninth circle, it was lacking.

He still had more knowledge than her about it, as Arthur had read tons of books since he first arrived in that world, so he could help her, even if it were only a little.

“I can, yes, but not today. I have a few things to do. I will be back tomorrow to talk with that goblin.”

“Alright. Many thanks!”

Arthur left the shop and returned to his villa. There, he cast his anchor spell to link the villa to the next location he would go so that his traveling would be more convenient.

And what place was that? It was time for him to return to his wives, who would presumably kill him.

“I will teach Sully a lesson when I get back.”

He activated his flight spell, which now had the mighty of a tier 9 spell, and left the capital like a flash.

A few passersby saw a shadow flying above the city and gasped in astonishment.

“Is that an old mage that left seclusion?”

Arthur did not know their thoughts as he flew directly toward Slyvian, the elven capital.
