Hero of Darkness Chapter 579: Honest Work

Chapter 579: Honest Work

Kahn and his doppelgangers stood inside the Dimensional Domain, his separate s.p.a.ce that spanned for 5 kilometers while from the outside, it didn't even span for 5 meters. And right in front of them, were various tools, equipment, metal ingots, forging materials and furnaces placed in order.

These were the forging materials and equipment Ronin stole from the company warehouses and Ceril covered up the expenses in the logbooks so there was no trace to track the purchase.

This was time for Kahn to practice his skills and techniques and as he planned before… the doppelgangers were going to become his cheats.

Currently, he only had an F rank blacksmithing skill even after weeks of training. And he unlocked this one on his own and not directly absorbed it from someone else.

Contrary to what one would expect from an isekai or reincarnation fantasy novel… people didn't awaken or learned such skills just by making repeated movements or performing a certain type of attack patterns in Vantrea.

Even fighting skills required understanding and physical compatibility to unlock them while magic spells and skills demanded control over mana and different elements of nature.

As for crafts like Blacksmithing… it had rules of its own. Even someone like Kahn who the blessings from a Demi-G.o.d, wasn't an exception to them.

First, he had to make himself get used to the movements of smithing techniques, then he had to perfect his control over the physical force with which he was performing the forging. Aside from that, he also needed the perfect understanding of the properties of the metal or alloy being forged.

Then how best to shape them while having perfect control of the tools and equipment he was using in the procedure. And while doing so, Kahn needed to pay attention to every single hit was making to shape the sample at hand.

s.p.a.cing out or just hammering without thought would end up sacrificing the end product. Something he and Blackwall learned after making over 30 pieces of steel armors and gauntlets.

Some of them had uneven layers. And some portions were thinner than the others. This caused the weight imbalance and also defensive strength was weaker in these parts.

If it was just some blacksmith apprentice working in a local smithy… the masters would be proud of them to succeed up to this level of the finished product in such a short time. But the master Kahn and Blackwall had… was one of the top 5 in the entire empire.

Throk scolded and beat both of his students to a pulp because even a slight mistake or uneven weight distribution could restrict the fighting prowess of the wearer and even cost them their lives in a life and death battle.

The smallest mistake meant a complete failure in his eyes. And thus… Kahn and Blackwall were forced to keep up with the same training for days until they made a perfect product that was pa.s.sable in the eyes of their master.

Although this constant berating and beating for screw-ups p.i.s.sed him off a lot, Kahn also understood that Throk wasn't just doing it for kinks or wasting effort… instead, he was building a solid foundation for both of them where they could progress and learn new skills after mastering the basic ones first.

Because even the tallest building, no matter how big of a marvel in terms of architecture or design it was or no matter how amazing it looked… would be decimated to the ground if the foundation itself was weak.

Thus, Kahn and Blackwall were working tirelessly throughout the day while working with different materials and types of tools as soon as the morning sun rose and stopped only when it was dinner time.

And inside the Dimensional Domain, his 5 doppelgangers were helping Kahn to increase his mastery and experience over the skills he had already unlocked. Thus, compared to others… he was training six times harder and also improving at a drastic pace.

Days and then weeks pa.s.sed by and finally, the Blacksmith's Hammering skill rose to B rank as he kept crossing the 100% mastery and proficiency threshold one by one and ranked up the skill with the help of the other 5 doppelgangers.

Meanwhile, the rest 10 doppelgangers were allowed to do tasks of their own.

5 of them were left with fighting and perfecting the newly gained skills that he gained after becoming a saint and the ones that were upgraded to Saint Rank after his breakthrough. Kahn was at a stage where any skill below the SSS Rank was hardly useful for him because his playing field was now elevated to Saints and Legendary rank creatures.

One of his doppelgangers transformed into a t.i.tan while the other one attacked it using the newly upgraded Dragon Strike skill.

3rd one intervened and used Lucid Reality skill on both to throw them off balance in a battle while the 4th one used the Gravity Law skills to suppress the others.

And lastly, the 5 one was using Darkness Elemental skills and attack infused in skills such as Dark Lightning Strike while using Spiritual Replica skill which allowed Kahn to create a separate ent.i.ty made of world energy that was no different than his version of Susano.

All the doppelgangers used a particular set of skills and fought a battle to the death on the original body's orders.

Because of this way, Kahn would naturally find flaws in himself, his techniques and combat capabilities as well as learn how to counter different types of enemies with varying abilities and skills.

The Kahn of now could kill a semi-saint individual just by releasing his War Dominance aura alone if he willed it. So the new skills he got from killing those legendary rank monsters, Skoll & Hati as well as the Guardian Dragon were what he needed to pay attention to the most.

Because being ignorant or putting off his training was no longer an option for him. He had to be prepared for the day when somehow others found out about his real ident.i.ty as Hero of Darkness.

As for the last 5…

They were going to be his trump cards.
