[Smithing Techniques: Lv1]
A Skill that only the most experienced of Blacksmiths can learn after spending dozens of years into the job. After forging many weapons, armor, and accessories, and learning how to smelt a large quantity of ores, it is when such techniques awaken within the minds and hearts of the Blacksmiths.
This Skill grants the ability to utilize such powerful techniques, while improving upon the quality and mastery over the creation of items. Alongside that, it grants the ability to detect Materials, their quality, and proper usages.

Available Arts:
Level 1: [Smelting] [Forging]
Level 2: ???
I had spent a whopping 200 Skill Points to learn these two very amazing and useful Skills, Alchemy Arts and Smithing Techniques. Each one costed 100 Skill Points, which was actually pretty expensive all things considered, but I already had 475 Skill Points, so I had more than enough to spend on these two very essential Skills from now on.
With these two babies, I am more than ready!
But ready for what? Well, to use the materials I have gathered, with those Colora had created alongside the big list I commissioned from Frank to begin forging my Ego Weapons.
I never thought I would ever do this in this world at all, but Frank came with a lot of convenient powers to help me in my endeavors for now. At this point he's like my walking shop of items, bwahahah!
…Though it would be better if I don't say that out loud or he'll get angry. He's a good kid if he's helping me so much too. Finding someone that is a half-overseer that has a beef against them and all is very nice and helpful, he'll become a long-term ally.
Anyways, time to do some alchemy.
"I can do all on my own I think, so leave it to me." I said with a smile. I quickly gathered all materials at my side and then called he first one to be enchanted. "White, you've been a good girl so I'll enchant you first."
"Really? Thanks!"
White flew to my side as she quickly did as I said.
"Get inside the cauldron."
"Eh?"
"Just do it."
White looked into the bubbling cauldron; I could tell she was slightly nervous but… there's no time to waste.
"Okay… If Master says so…"
She timidly dipped into the cauldron's interior, the bubbling liquid was actually not harmful, it was merely liquified mana. Kind of like mana potions but not.
"Ah, it is warm here… So relaxing…"
She was actually enjoying it?!
Anyways, I poured the items inside.
For White I decided to bring out her Void-Element Attribute, which, unlike Black, she has yet to reawaken. She has gotten better and better at healing and the like, but that'll won't be enough in the future. The Void Element is incredibly strong, so if she has it, she'll have more offensive options.
For the base, I added dozens of Blood Crystals, the carcasses of the giant mountain beetles, the Swarm Queen's shattered soul crystals, a bit of cosmic dust she dropped as well, Silver Crystal, Black Iron, some Mushrooms, and then… this!
It was a large herb of bluish color. This was one of Colora's creations, a Void Herb. It has the color of the "void" or something, and it contains a lot of Void Attribute Energy. Aside from that, I added what Frank got me, Spirit Stones of Void, Void Crystals, Piece of Nothingness, Paint of Nowhere, and… of course, life, and holy light attribute things such as Fake Cherubin Wings, Holy Water, and white and gold colored grass made by Color with those elements too.
"[Synthesis]!"
Once all things were there, I began mixing them all through the usage of [Synthesis] continuously, until the items began literally melting and combining together. I had to spend hundreds of thousands of Mana for the quality of the items though, but it was all coming well.
F L A S H!
The materials merged into White just as I masterfully thought they would, as I quickly used [Mixing] to mix their essence together and hasten the process while at the same time not letting the "broth" get too hot either.
"And now… We add this."
I quickly added a drop of my own blood.
F F R S S S H!
The cauldron began bubbling even more rapidly, Frank was surprised.
"Your blood?"
"It is something that got stuck to me. Back then my blood was very amazing so I even used it as a material. I don't know if it's too much now but it might help a bit…"
F L A A A S H!
And then, White emerged from the cauldron as all materials merged with her, leaving nothing behind.
"Oooh, I feel like I ate a big buffet!" White said.
"And we are not done yet, dear. Now that I've enchanted you, the process of refinery must begin to end it completely. So I am going to smack you with a hammer, some divine fire, and mix some more ores with you." I said with a smile.
"E-Eh?!"
