“Chapter 276: Exam 2”

As expected, Raksha has been struggling to complete the task.

Still, it’s not hard to tell that she has a talent for this.

– She’s good with metals. Even more than Akane. (Ever)

– Yeah. I think so too.

Which is why, regardless of the outcome of this experiment, I plan to recommend her to Rudra and Feria.

She could take care of the minor requests while we focus on downsizing the mountains of work we have.

Rather than a test, I consider this training.

– Aahhhhh, I’m so close!

– Do you want better materials? I can make red iron for you if you need.

– No! That would defeat the purpose.

If she wanted to break Silver she could just use stronger materials…

I guess she inherited the blacksmith’s stubbornness from her father.

– COME ON, BREAK ALREADY!

One strike.

And another one.

Over and over again.

– Uuuuuuugghh…

I’m genuinely surprised that Silver hasn’t given up yet despite how worn out it is.

– We’re about to reach the 2 weeks mark. I have work to do, so I can’t stay here for much longer. Are you going to keep trying by yourself?

– PLEASE! Give me another chance! I can do this!

– Alright. One more chance, then. Remember, there’s no deadline. Take a break and cool your head.

– …Okay.

Nodding with frustration, Raksha took a seat near the entrance of the cave.

– She’s too impatient. Why don’t you stop her already? She won’t get any results in that state.

– It’s fine, she can do this. It’ll take her some time to regain her confidence, but it’ll be worth it.

Raksha was sitting on a rock shedding tears and sweat.

And then, a shiny stone hit her head.

– OWW! What!?

It was a clear fragment of a Heaven Jewel.

Not a rare find inside this cave, it seems. But the one at Raksha’s feet looked much clearer than the one I used to repair Mumuruu’s spear.

– Looks like the universe is on your side. (Takaya)

– Excuse me? (Raksha)

– Here’s an idea. Why don’t you try using that stone?
