Chapter 17

I smiled as Smith finished the lecture

“Is it difficult to understand with just words? If so, then I will demonstrate it for you”

Smith poured in a certain ratio of iron, coke, and li the blast furnace (The fuel Coke, not the drink/drug)

As Smith’s face and upper body beca fro the coke At this point, the iron ore was gradually turned into molten iron due to Smith’s reduction interactions

The li the iron and into i out the slag and radually disappeared through holes at the bottoly orange

When the iron solidified, it would beco iron was very hard and brittle because it contained a lot of carbon It wasn’t suitable for the crafting of weapons In order to , it was necessary to reduce the carbon content through a process called steel

Smith, as quietly i is now?”

I nodded and Smith sent me a satisfied expression

“Now that you’ve seen it, jaffa is easy to s point,it easier to refine than iron ore The ratio of jaffa to coke to li]

Difficulty: E

Mineral sives this job to you, who is drea a blacks the jaffa ore

Quest Reward: Affinity with S of smelted jaffa

Quest Failure: It isn’t easy to perfectly s

Smith will understand if you fail

There was no reason to refuse I accepted the quest

Smith prepared the furnace for ht’ve looked easy as you watched me smelt it, but in reality, it’s actually quite hard”

I placed the ingredients in the furnace and put my feet on the bellows At that moment, a translucent arrow appeared and pointed to one side of the bellows

‘Is this the class compensation effect?’

I placed my foot exactly where the arrow pointed The arrow pointed in another direction, where I ai ed to heat up the furnace in five ed it in 10 minutes

Then a notificationpopped up

[You can sense the tees in arees 32…]

The strange, yet unwelcoes in temperature If there is a furnace in the vicinity, you can accurately measure the temperature inside the furnace

I placed rees 740…]

The constantly rising te notification

‘1,000 degrees’

Iron ore was said to be suitable for srees Celsius, but jaffa was suitable at around 950~1,000 degrees As soon as the notificationread 1,000 degrees, I no longer needed to put effort into increasing the temperature

The jaffa slowly melted down Compared to iron ore, jaffa had a lower concentration of i I i out the impurities The translucent arrow told me the direction to move the metal pipes, so I was able to do it more quickly and accurately than S well or not, becah!”

S After a while, S voice, “How are you so skilled at s?”

His coht fall down

“Do you have experience s? This wasn’t your first ti…”

Shost

“Huh… it is really ridiculous… This is a talent that can’t be represented A person with no experience is better than his teacher It’s like I’ma’ was the common term of praise for especially talented blacksmiths It was usually the best praise! Any blacksma’s reincarnation

However, I was different

‘I’m not a reincarnation, but a descendant’

In the h purity molten jaffa was completed

[Quest success!]

Smith sreat friend”
