After seeing the mission details, he calmed himself for a moment and asked, "Master, is something wrong? You seem worried,"
Since he could not ask his master like, 'Master, I can help you' or 'Master, say your problem to me, I will solve it for you.'
So, he took a slow approach as he asked why he was worried.
Even though Alaster was worried a little, he didn't have any worried look on his face because he didn't want his disciple to see him worrying.
So, when he heard Henrick's words, he was surprised a little before nodding his head while thinking, 'Maybe I was worried a little too much that he must have found out.'
However, what he didn't know was Henrick only got to know about his worry from the mission and as for guessing something just by watching the faces of the cultivators? Henrick was still far from achieving it.
"Just leave it, Henrick. You can't help me with it as you have already refined nearly 100 weapons,"
However, Alaster shook his head because he knew how tiring it was to continuously refine weapons through the common forging process.
'Wait for a second'
All of a sudden, he remembered something that made him look at Henrick as though he was some kind of monster.
"Did you refine all 81 weapons within 8 hours using the common forging process?"
Until now, he was worried about his vice-president position. So, he forgot that Henrick was only a muscle-strengthening realm; however, after thinking about it, he could not help but ask him.
'It means, for every single successful refinement, it took him less than 10 minutes. It is born to be a weaponsmith,'
Alaster's inner thoughts were in a mess with everything going on. Nevertheless, he took a deep breath and calmed himself.
"Yes, master. Because of enlightenment….,"
Once again, Henrick used the same word 'Enlightenment' to convince Alaster.
"Okay fine...you seem to be tired. Go to your cultivation abode and don't return here until I ask you to come,"
Even though he was surprised by Henrick's refinement speed, he didn't continue to ask questions because he had even more important things to do.
"No master. I am perfectly fine. I can even refine 100 more rank 1 weapons,"
How could Henrick leave without completing the mission?.
Compared to the mission's reward, Henrick just wanted to help his new half-master if he could help.
Looking at the serious look on Henrick's face, Alaster could not help but reveal a slight smile.
"Since you want to help me, refine 100 similar looking swords before midnight. As long as you complete it. I will take you to a special place that even your master had no clue about it,"
Alaster no longer asked Henrick to go back to his cultivation abode and gave a task for Henrick to complete refining 100 swords before midnight.
"Yeah, master,"
Henrick excitedly nodded his head as he took a store ring filled with low-quality metal blocks.
'Why didn't I find him earlier; instead of him, I took an ungrateful one as my disciple,'
When he saw how excited Henrick was to help him half master, Alaster thought about his previous disciples and shook his head.
"In that, there are 150 metal blocks and you don't need to stress too much and if you are tired you can rest,"
Alaster nodded his head as he explained the contents of the storage ring before leaving that weapon refining room.
"Master, if you don't mind, can you explain what you are worried about so much?"
In the mission, it was described that he had to help his master from some crisis. So, he wanted to know what that crisis was. Only then, he could help as much as he can and at the same time, he could push his limits.
'Sigh'
Hearing Henrick's question, Alaster sighed before explaining to Henrick, "Before midnight, I had to deliver 70 percent of the weapons on a deal. Currently, I have 50 percent of weapon and need to refine 20 percent of weapons."
Alaster didn't explain too much and only gave the relevant information to Henrick.
'What? Since it was only 20 percent of weapons, why is it making him so tense?'
Henrick felt that 20 percent is not a small number of weapons. So, he asked, "So, master, how many needed to be refined before midnight?"
Since he wanted to help his master, he wanted exactly how many weapons needed to be refined and with two of them refining with a plan, they might refine that 20 percent of the weapons before midnight.
"Since you can only refine rank 1 weapons, I divided the 20 percent of weapons into 100 rank 1 weapons, 100 rank 2 weapons and 50 rank 3 weapons after excluding the 81 weapons and one rank 1 weapon refined by me,"
Alaster gave rough calculations of the weapons that needed to be refined before midnight.
"Master, can you refine the 100 rank 2 and 50 rank 3 weapons in time?"
Henrick asked with doubt because refining rank 2 and rank 3 takes much more time than rank 1 weapon and moreover, the time taken to refine them would be increased too.
"You just refine the rank 1 weapons, I will try my best to refine them,"
Alaster gave a reply and left from the weapon refining room as he didn't want to waste any more time,
'Sigh'
From his master's words, Henrick could feel that it was almost impossible to refine that made weapons within eight hours.
Moreover, Alaster was not in his peak form and clearly, he was very tired from refining the other orders and this order's 50 percent of weapons.
'Only if I was rank 2 weaponsmith, I would have been helpful in this kind of situation,'
Henrick clenched his fist as he decided to try his best in refining the 100 rank 1 weapons.
"I will use the enlightenment reward from the earlier mission and I wonder, it would help me decrease the time for refining a weapon,"
'System, use the enlightenment reward,'
Henrick didn't forget about the reward he had got from the earlier mission 'Refine refine refine' and without wasting any time he used it.
Since he wanted to try his best in helping his master, he wanted to use all his trump cards before starting the weapon-refinement.
'Swoosh'
As soon as he did that, a resplendent light covered his entire body.
Instead of feeling pain, he felt it the feeling was calm and soothing to him as many mysteries regarding the weapon forging entered his mind.
'Phew...it is over already?'
However, that feeling didn't last much time for Henrick and the resplendent light that was covering his body also disappeared along with it.
It made Henrick a little sad as he stretched his body.
'I feel full of energy,'
Even though he didn't know how much he had improved in weapon refining, he noticed one thing and it was his tiredness.
The tiredness from refining 81 weapons disappeared without a trace making him look forward to the refining of weapons.
'So, which method should I use to refine the weapons?'
Just when he thought to start his refining, Henrick fell into a dilemma in which method to use.
