Chapter 3294
Count Rowan’s gazes gradually grew solemn!
Even though Darryl was not adept at forging the sword, his hammer was landing on
all the right points, and he was using the right amount of force!
As time passed by, Darryl had hammered the body of the sword dozens of times.
Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he worked hard.
Finally, Darryl stopped and smiled at Count Rowan. " Your Excellency, can you get
your people to bring me some soil?"
Soil?
Count Rowan was surprised to hear the request. " What do you want to do with the
soil?"
Count Rowan could not help glancing at the sword in Darryl's hand. It had been
forged dozens of times, and the final step before it was ready was to quench it.
Darryl’s request for soil baffled Count Rowan.
Darryl gave Count Rowan a mysterious smile. "You'll find out soon, Count Rowan!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJordan sneered and mocked him. "Cut the crap, will you? Why do you need soil to
make a sword? Do you think that you are playing house?"
Darryl ignored Jordan!
Count Rowan reacted and gave an order to the servant. "Go and bring the man some soil!"
Jordan was anxious. He wanted to stop the servant from bringing the soil, but he held back
when he saw Count Rowan's serious look!
After a while, the servant brought some soil to Darryl.
Darryl added some water to the soil and stirred momentarily to form mud before setting it
aside.
After that, Darryl picked up the body of the sword and began to sharpen the blade.
Ah...
Count Rowan and everyone else was stunned.
The sword's body had cooled down after being forged repeatedly; it had not been
quenched yet. Yet, Darryl had started to sharpen the blade. Had he carelessly skipped a
step?
Also, why on earth would he need the soil?
Just as everyone was puzzled, they saw that Darryl put the sharpened sword on the fire
again and burned it red. Then, he smeared the mud on the blade.
Darryl was using the unique technique from the Nine Mainland—the mud-burning method,
which could enhance the rigidity and sharpness of the blade.
'What?'
The onlookers were shocked.
What was the live-in son-in-law doing?
He had smeared mud on the sword. Was he playing house? The mud-burning technique
was unheard of in the Roland Continent. Therefore, everyone thought that Darryl was just
fooling around.
Count Rowan wore a complicated expression on his face, but his eyes were sharp to notice
that Darryl was very particular in how he smeared the mud on the sword's body. The mud
was smeared in waxy patterns; it seemed like a very low-end design but very beautiful.
Sizzle...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Darryl smeared mud on the blade, he put the sword into cold water to quench it.
After that, he cleaned the mud on the sword and polished it for the last time!
Gasp!
Everyone exclaimed at the sight of the sword in Darryl's hand.
An exquisite longsword was presented before everyone. It had a sharp blade and a
wavy texture on its body that reflected the sunshine and formed a bright ring of
light.
"It looks great!"
"It turns out he used soil to get a different texture on the blade!"
"That's really beautiful!"
Lolita trembled when she heard the comments from the onlookers, she was looking
at Darryl blankly; she was speechless.
Unexpectedly, he had some metalwork skills too!
Phew!
Darryl breathed a sigh of relief.
It was his first time making a sword, and the result turned out unexpectedly well.
At that moment, Jordan was dumbfounded. He was in disbelief.
' He has succeeded in making a great sword!'
