Chapter 349 Learning about runes (1)
In truth, I was even shocked by this.
I never thought that the runes would be this powerful even though I knew that they were powerful.
I had thought that this dagger would get stuck halfway through the armour, but that didn't seem to be the case.
Regardless, I couldn't act surprised now, so I forced myself to reveal a calm look.
After a long silence, the dwarves suddenly came forward.
They immediately surrounded me as expected, but they also surrounded the stand and mithril armour. They looked at it carefully as if they were trying to see if there was a flaw with it.
But they couldn't find a single thing wrong no matter how they looked at it.
This mithril armour was still the same as before, it was just that the dagger...was sharper than it.
That was how it had cut through it like a scythe through wheat.
Once they recognized this, they all turned their attention to the dagger.
With the results like this, there was no need for them to argue who had won. Even a fool would be able to see that this dagger was much better than the mithril sword.
In that case, there was no problem in them inspecting the dagger now.
I had already guessed this, so I walked over to a table and put the dagger down for them to look over.
The dwarves took a while inspecting the dagger and from time to time, I could hear...
"This metal, it's like mithril...but it's even lighter and harder than mithril...just what is this metal?"
"How can that be? Mithril is already one of the lightest metals out there, how could there be something lighter than mithril?"
"How would I know? I'm looking at the same thing as you and I can't figure it out either."
There were a few dwarves that seemed like they were about to start fighting as they discussed this, but then one dwarf suddenly shouted something.
"Silver!"
All of the other dwarves looked at this one dwarf with a confused look as they waited for this dwarf to explain.
But this dwarf didn't say anything as he looked more closely at the dagger.
The other dwarves waited at first, but they became more and more impatient when they saw that this dwarf wasn't saying anything.
So they surrounded this dwarf and asked, "What do you mean by silver?"
With the way that he was surrounded, it really seemed like they were threatening him at this point.
But that dwarf didn't care as he kept staring at the dagger.
Slowly, that dwarf said, "Silver, there are traces of silver in this dagger as well that makes it this light."
When this dwarf said this, all of the other dwarves stuck their head in closer to the dagger to examine it. When they did, they started muttering things.
"That's right. When I look closer, there really are traces of silver mixed in with the mithril..."
"But how does that work? If you add metals in the furnace together like this, that would just increase the impurities of the ingot you make. It shouldn't make something that's stronger and lighter like this?"
"How would I know? I'm looking at the same thing as you are."
"What did you say?"
As they were muttering, they started arguing with each other and in no time at all, it almost seemed like they were about to fight.
It seemed that dwarves really were passionate when it came to forging...
But they didn't start fighting as they all turned to look at me.
I had already expected this and said with a sigh, "It's true that if you put random metals together, they will just add impurities in the final product. However, there are some metals that compliment each other..."
I knew that I would have to give another lecture about alloys, so I didn't hold back at all as I started giving them this lecture.
During the lecture, there were many questions that they had, but I was able to answer them all.
It was a good thing that the questions that they asked weren't that complicated.
But that was only because this was a new concept for them and they didn't really know what to ask yet.
If they had some time to study it...I wouldn't be able to keep up with them and would run out of answers.
For now though, I was still able to act like I knew more than them.
Once we were finished talking about the alloys, the dwarves started discussing many different things.
They already had different ideas for what kind of ores they would be able to mix together to create new alloys.
There were many that I had already heard of both in the game and in my past life.
As expected of dwarves who were obsessed with forging.n--Ovelb1n
It really wouldn't take them long to surpass me in terms of creating alloys...
I should really take advantage of my advanced knowledge while I still can.
But the Dwarven Kings suddenly said, "That's not the key thing."
When they heard this, the dwarves couldn't help looking at the Dwarven King with a confused look.
The Dwarven King came forward and reached a hand out to point at the runes on the dagger before saying, "You need to remember that there are these runes on this dagger as well."
When they heard this, they all started paying attention to the runes that were drawn on it.
That's right, there were also these runes that had been on this dagger.
They knew that it was impossible for the dagger alone to demonstrate that kind of power even though it was a new kind of metal.
So it had to be the power of the runes that had allowed this dagger to cut right through the mithril armour and the stand.
If they were able to put these runes on the items that they forged...wouldn't they be able to make even better items?
All of the dwarves turned back to look at me with curious looks that just made me reveal an awkward smile.
