Chapter 120: The Result
Aldrian was astonished as the screen in front of him pinpointed exactly which parts of the steel to hammer and how much force to apply. He examined the intricate details of the steel and couldn’t help but praise his Eyes of the Heaven for providing such precise information.
"Well, as expected from my mysterious abilities," he thought.
He inspected the steel, now glowing red from the forge, and glanced at the screen, which also displayed the optimal steps and the best temperature for heating. According to his Eyes of the Heaven, the steel was nearing the perfect temperature.
Once it reached the exact perfect heat, Aldrian swiftly grabbed the steel with a pair of tongs and placed it on the anvil. Duke Valiard raised an eyebrow at Aldrian’s precise movements and keen sense. He could feel that the steel’s heat was ideal for tempering and silently praised Aldrian for quickly grasping one of the most critical aspects of forging.
Aldrian then picked up a hammer, carefully positioning himself.
Clang!
As the hammer struck the steel, Duke Valiard immediately noticed that Aldrian had used less force than expected but chose not to comment. He continued watching.
Clang, clang!
With each strike of the hammer, Aldrian’s blows was nearing perfection, and after a few more moments, the duke could sense that Aldrian had already mastered the exact amount of force needed for each strike. Making Duke Valiard’s surprise grew.
