Nam Sung - Legendary Moonlight Sculptor Volume 15

The Dwarves who were sorrowfully learning the Sculpting Skill while being scolded by the instructor!

They recognized Weed's face as he opened the door and came inside.

“He's the Dwarf who left after taking the request that time.”

“Are you talking about the request to find the trail of Kendellev?”

“He's the Dwarf who boldly accepted the request that no one could solve and left.”

“Tsk tsk. Looks like that Dwarf also finally came back to give up after trying and trying.”

The Dwarves were secretly gleeful.

When Weed received the request they had worried that he might possibly succeed, but at the sight of him returning covered with dust and without any energy like that, they figured that he had failed.

Although the discovery of Kendellev's sculptures had already circulated through Royal Road broadcasts, by the look of it these Dwarves were completely in the dark.

Weed walked towards the Instructor.

“I have come to report the result of the quest.”

Sculpting Instructor Jorbid politely asked.

“You went through a lot. Was our Dwarf Sculptor's legend the truth?”

“It was. There was a Sculptor in the Dwarf race, and his sculptures were beautiful.”

“Indeed! I believed that it was true. Can you show me Kendellev's trail?”

“Of course.”

Weed opened his rucksack and stuck in his hands. After rummaging through the items in the rucksack, he grabbed something. Then, he pulled out something enclosed in his two hands.

“Here, this is Kendellev's sculpture.”

As Weed parted his two hands, a confined bird made of water flew out.

The bird sang out with a bright voice as it went around and around the Sculptor Guild.

“Ah! This is the sculpture that our ancestor made!”

The Sculpting Instructor Jorbid could not hold back his deep emotion.

The comical sculpture in the shape of a sparrow flew in between the Dwarves.

The Dwarves had on a shocked expression that looked like they had seen a new world. Their jaws didn't drop this much even when they were guzzling down beer.

“To say this is a sculpture! How is this a sculpture?”

“Isn't this an item made by a genie or magic!”

“Sculptures have to be carved to be made, this is a fraud.”

Meanwhile, it was difficult for the Dwarves to accept this new sculpture.

From the stereotypes they possessed, they could not be convinced that the bird made of water that was flying around was a sculpture!

Weed shook his head.

'It'll be difficult for them to achieve lifelong Sculpting Skills with thoughts like those.'

Sculpting was a three-dimensional art.

If it was something a Sculptor made, and was visible or if the idea could be grasped, anything could become a new attempt.

'I don't know why they think they just have to carve only wood or stone.'

As if Weed couldn't remember himself looking down on the Sculpting profession until not too long ago, he maintained a dignified expression.

The Dwarf instructor grabbed his hand.

“Thank you. Now, no matter what race, they won't be able to look down on us Dwarves when it comes to Sculpting.”

Ding!

— You have completed Sculpting Instructor Jorbid's request.

The legendary Dwarf Sculptor Kendellev's sculptures were in Kuruso.

After finding out about his sculptures, Humans and Elves that are wise craftsmen will no longer be able to criticize the Dwarven Artists.

— Fame has gone up by 130.

— Evaluation of you in the Sculptor Guild has improved.

— In racial prestige, respect toward Dwarves has increased by 3.

— Friendship with Thor Kingdom Dwarves has increased by 82. Dwarves will throw aside the pickaxes to help you in your work.

— Level has gone up.

— Level has gone up.

The Sculpting instructor held out a pair of black gloves.

Honestly, Weed was more expectant of the reward item than the levels or fame.

'That's the reason why Thor Kingdom quests are good.'

Through quests from the Elves, for the most part friendship or affinity with spirits increased. In the case of the Humans, you could obtain fame, a reward, or a special status or profession.

With the Dwarves, especially Thor Kingdom's case, through quests they gave you good items; it matched Weed's tastes perfectly.

“This is a glove I'd like you to use. Though it's not Kendellev-nim, the Dwarf who wore this glove was extremely outstanding.”

“Thank you very much.”

— You have acquired the reward item from the request.

Gloves that delicately gleamed with a black luster.

“Identify!”

Skilled Producer's Glove:

Durability 45/45.

Defense 13.

Gloves that were personally made and used by Thor Kingdom's Seventh Blacksmith, Spindal.

Even while doing Blacksmith work he had adventures, so in order to make the gloves perfectly comfortable while catching Orcs, he made them through a lot of trial and error.

Although they were produced for Blacksmiths to use, they can be utilized in a wide variety of uses.

Requirement:

Intermediate Handicraft and over. Level 150.

Option:

When equipped, Blacksmithing skill +1.

Sculpting skill +1.

Effect of Handicraft skill +5 %.

Attack increased by 7 %.

When using long-range weapons, casting speed is improved.

As he'd expected, it was a high-class item.

Though the level requirement was low, with the Intermediate Handicraft limit it was an item that not just anyone could use.

The Sculpting instructor added, “I believe that Kendellev-nim's trail is left somewhere in our Thor Kingdom. Will you do more searching for that trail?”

Ding!

Kendellev's Hidden Sculptures

The very talented Dwarf Sculptor's artifacts are still suspected to be left somewhere.

Find and restore the additional sculptures that Kendellev left in Thor Kingdom.

Difficulty: Dwarf Race Sculptor quest.

Reward: Honor of the Dwarves.

Quest requirement: Limited to Dwarf, Sculptor.

The still unfinished Kendellev's quest!

However, Weed shook his head.

“I must leave for the path of adventure. Since the Humans and Elves have been sufficiently informed of greatness of the Dwarves, I want to entrust this to a different Dwarf in my stead.”

There were things Weed had to do, and he wanted to end the sculpture searching with this.

The Sculpting instructor nodded morosely.

“Alright. Even if it's not you, ordinary Dwarves should now be able to do this work.”

— You have refused the quest.

Your intimacy with Sculpting Instructor Jorbid has slightly fallen.

Although intimacy had dropped a little, the Sculpting instructor liked Weed all the same.

“It is an honor for me to have seen an excellent Sculptor like you. What will you do from here?”

“Even I do not know that. Only that I may have to go to Dale Kingdom to meet my colleagues.”

“May the sculptures made by you be blessed. Come back sometime and make a sculpture for Iron Hand Village.”

“The many things I've seen in the places where I have walked, if I return to this place, I will definitely make them for you.”

Ahn Hyun Do cleaned his sword with a clean cloth.

The famed sword that the craftsman had completed with his soul and by smelting even the purest part of iron. As famous swordsmen used it generation after generation, the sword's value had grown.

“Through the sword, what makes a human capable of rising to the sky… is the sword.”

Ahn Hyun Do possessed many famed swords, but he never carelessly took out the Radiant Sword. Only when a big decision was ahead did he meditate over the resolve of his time of youth while cleaning the Radiant Sword.
