MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith
chapter-453

'So, there's a bit less than five months left before the Myriad Prodigies Tournament kicks into full gear.' After heading outside to buy a couple of essential items that the two were lacking in their inn, Valyr laid down on his bed and indulged in his thoughts once more. However, unlike before, the thoughts in his mind currently revolved around the conversation he had with Wells earlier.

'As for where the Myriad Prodigies Tournament is going to be held, Wells said that there was a high chance that it would be held at the kingdom's main city of Alhazar.' Allowing his mind to wander off every once in a while, the young man continued thinking about it, feeling like it wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate some of his time in the future on it. 'However, he also mentioned that there were times back then when the tournament was held in a special area within the Meltierre Empire.'

'Either way, I'll probably enter it for the sake of the prizes.' Valyr faintly let out a chuckle as the thought popped in his mind. 'Then again, everyone else is there for the prizes as well… or the fame that comes attached to being a participant of the tournament.'

'In any case, I should probably do some forging for the meantime and make use of the great number of Technology Points I've gotten thanks to Julian.' Whilst he was still engrossed in his thoughts, Valyr felt that it was a bit weird for him to not be doing anything for such a long time.

Pondering over what he could do to pass the time, he decided to upgrade 10 more unleveled skills to their maximum level, gritting his teeth as he felt a great influx of information enter his mind soon after. Clutching tightly on his bed sheet for a while, the young man eventually loosened his grip once the initial wave of information subsided, with the subsequent waves of information being more manageable.

"With this, I only have around 20 more skills to upgrade to the max level." Taking in a deep breath before letting out a low sigh of relief, Valyr thought about how he was going to space his skill upgrade process in order to not overwhelm his mind, deciding to follow the pattern he had done for the skills he had upgraded so far.

"Hmm… even though the trip to the Akashic Battlefield was cut short, should I still try and upgrade [Slayer of Ascendants] to the next stage?" With his body beginning to relax once more after he was finished with upgrading skills, a question popped up into Valyr's mind, prompting him to think of locations that would have the monsters he needed to upgrade the title to the next level.

"Yeah… nah." However, considering his proximity to the locations he had in mind, most of which were located at the other end of the Meltierre Empire, the young man eventually opted not to do so for the meantime, taking into consideration that he had upgraded what was initially an Uncommon grade skill to Legendary grade with an incomplete session in the Akashic Battlefield.

"Aside from that, the buffs from the title are already great as is. If anything, it just makes me excited for the stages that I would unlock in the future." Reminding himself to be content with what he had and not be too greedy, Valyr soon pondered over what kind of equipment he would forge the following day, thinking about its sale value through the Blacksmith Guild's channels.

Once he had an idea of what he would forge, he then thought about he would allocate the Technology Points that had been left untouched all this time on the Technology Tree's Innovation branch. Eventually, the amount of thinking made the young man feel like his eyes had become heavy all of a sudden, only to doze off into dream land a few minutes later.

…

"Haah…" Yawning as he sat upright on his bed, Valyr did a bit of light stretching with his upper body before truly getting up. Once he felt like his consciousness had now become fully alert, he then went through his usual morning routine, upgrading yet another 10 unleveled skills in his arsenal to their maximum level along the way.

By the time around half an hour had passed after Valyr was finished with his morning routine, Wells had finally woken up from his slumber, heading to their designated communal area of the room, only to find Valyr eating breakfast.

"I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I just got a little bit of everything." Putting down his utensils for a bit, Valyr looked at his friend with a smile.

"Thanks." Appreciating the kind gesture his friend had done, Wells nodded in response as he decided to go through his daily routine as well. "Oh yeah. You got something on the side of your lips."

"Ah." Awkwardly smiling in realization that Wells wasn't messing around with him, Valyr wiped off the bits of food around his lips with a napkin before deciding to finish the remaining portion of his breakfast.

"I'll be heading to the Blacksmith Guild for the meantime to do some forging." Once he was done cleaning the plates of food he had just eaten off of, Valyr made his way to his portion of the room to grab some stuff that he then stored in his spatial bracelet. After making sure that he did not forget anything essential that he should bring, he then bade farewell to Wells, telling the latter of his plans for the day.

"Alright. I'll be here as always." Once he heard Wells respond to his farewell, it was only then did Valyr truly leave their room, heading out of the inn and onto the streets of Algerie City. Thanks to his high agility as a peak Rank 2 class holder, it did not take long for the young man to arrive at the entrance of the Blacksmith Guild as the day was just about to begin.
