Ohh! Some of the lock mechanisms have been replaced. Let me see. There are a total of 108 locks to unlock. The connections between the different locks have also been manipulated to further punish any intruder who has the nerve to enter the Master Smith's workplace without his permission. There are locks that only need the right key, while others need the right combination number. Some locks require a certain amount of mana to be unlocked. The time needed should not be too long, otherwise my efforts will be in vain. The penalty is also a factor I have to take into account, and finally
"This is really fun!" [Diana].
"We... We shouldn't be doing this!" [Mara]
"This is trespassing!" [Kara]
"Won't Master Smith Brokkr be angry?" [Neloufa]
"I'm curious and scared at the same time" [Tio]
"Maybe we should stop!" [Marianne]
"Honestly, it's rude, but I'm really curious myself, as an aspiring knight" [Adnan].
"Meow!" [Fie]
Use metal and earth magic here. Boost my luck with Holy Magic here to get the right sequence of numbers on the first try. Let Fie use his thunder magic here. The locks at the four corners need to be activated at the same time, so just make the keys I created float and click at the same time, and finally for the master lock, it needs Mr. Brokkr's mana, an upgrade from last time, but this is the easiest one to manipulate, a surprising thing since it's the last lock before entering his workshop, and once I'm done
"Hey there Mr. Brokkr! I have come to play!" [Diana]
"You lads again! How many times do I have to tell yer not to enter without permission?" [Brokkr]
"But the locks tempt me to open them! It's so much fun! You should try harder next time!" [Diana]
"Ooh... mind telling me yer little lads?" [Brokkr]
"Well..." [Diana]
Again, I explained to him as usual and he just nodded while playing with his beard.
(Mr. Brokkr doesn't seem so scary when he's with Diana...) [Adnan]
(Is he...having fun too?) [Neloufa]
(Probably... Maybe it's his way of improving his skills to make a better lock mechanism?) [Tio]
(I see! Whenever Diana does that, he improves the mechanism even more. So in a way, it benefits him as well!) [Kara]
(But even the wizard at the castle said it's impossible to enter this workshop without permission) [Mara]
(I guess Diana is special.) [Marianne]
"Stop whispering, yer kids! Tell me what you want! [Broker]
"It's rude to talk behind someone back yer kids!" [Diana]
"You're one to talk..." [Tio]
The reason we are here is to get extra credit for the upcoming finals. Our assignment is to write a report on any topic that piques our interest. Since the behemoth that Nar and Sas defeated the other day will be turned into a good weapon and armor by Mr. Brokkr, I proposed this idea to my group and they all agreed. Of course, it would be ideal to tell Mr. Brokkr beforehand, but he's someone who can almost only be found in his workshop, so I'll break in first and tell him later.
"Hmmp, I won't tell yer kids. Not that they would understand anyway" [Broker].
"Boo... You're no fun!" [Diana]
"Well, the girls' mothers are still discussing who should get the Behemoth material, so I haven't even started making preparations yet" [Brokkr].
"True. Mother is getting a swarm of requests regarding the Behemoth material" [Kara].
"To be honest, it makes me angry with the requestor." [Mara]
I see, then
"Yer want to upgrade your wand by using the Behemoth material? No can do, young lad. You are still weak and the material will be wasted" [Brokkr].
"It's worth a try" [Diana].
"Yer still young. Once yer strong and have defeated a dragon or other disaster, find me and I'll upgrade the wand" [Brokkr].
"Promise?" [Diana]
"Yes, yes... Now get out of my workshop!" [Brokkr]
"But we still have no material to write about!" [Diana]
"Just do one about my lock or something!" [Brokkr]
"That should be fine as well. Mr. Brokkr, can you tell us how you felt when Diana unlocked it for the first time?" [Neloufa]
"What makes your lock special compared to others?" [Adnan]
"Is there a difference between the locks you used here and the ones in the castle?" [Kara]
"One by one! Don't swarm me, children!" [Brokkr]
After getting everything we needed from Mr. Brokkr, the six of us and Fie take a break at the next cafeteria, which is run by a dwarf. The street here is really run by dwarves. Dwarves are always present with other species come to look at their collection. Of course, they are aware of my antiquity of breaking into the master smith's workplace and just laugh about it whenever it happens. Still, their boisterous and cheerful personalities suddenly become stern when they realize that Kara and Mara are here.
"They can just act normal like they always do..." [Kara].
"It's fun while it lasts" [Mara].
"Hahaha. Hey everyone, don't be afraid of them. They wouldn't just execute you" [Diana]
"Diana, don't make it worse" [Marianne]
"Sometimes I am jealous of your easy going personality" [Tio].
"Well, how about we finish this assignment first and take a walk down the street. Princess Kara and Mara can be in the middle, that way they won't know you're here with us" [Adnan].
"That seems wonderful." [Neloufa]
"Meow!" [Fie]
