The Miracle of Life Bestowal
Translated and edited by AsianOtakuGuy and Jzar
Having gone back to the underground dungeon of Jigolaths, Weed spent his time carving sculptures. Weed knew he would need more than just his army of undead to defeat the tough enemies he currently had to overcome.
“I have to use the sculptures. Using the power and strength of sculptures, I think I see a way to escape this situation.”
Since learning Nature Sculpting, all of his raw materials looked different to his eye. On the surface of the material and within the core, the material was alive with vibrant and pulsating mana. The look and texture of the mana also had a lot of variety to it. The difficulty of sculpting climbed dramatically with the need to create a sculpture without damaging these dancing forms of mana contained throughout the material.
The act of striking, beating or cutting the ore with a tool, can damage ore, even though it’s very hard. Although the ore was very sturdy, when hit or struck, the shock wave traveled all the way to the core.
“Smoothly and accurately.”
*Ting!*
==================================
Sculpture Completed !
Does not effect of the artistic value of the sculpture,
durability has risen significantly.
-For the contribution to the arts notoriety decreases by 2.
==================================
Another advantage for the sculptor class!
By creating a sculpture, your fame goes up while notoriety falls. Weed laughed satisfactorily.
“Yep, a sculptor shows his true spirit through his sculptures.”
Weed spoke to himself while hard at work mass producing sculptures. Since his fame was so high doing quests with high difficulty can drop his notoriety easily. Notoriety also drops by creating sculptures.
“I can even commit some crimes later if I have to since I can just lower it again.”
Rather than turning over a new leaf, for Weed, this was like a golden ticket to continue engaging freely in even more rotten behavior. All the mining he had done while searching for the Helium had also considerably reduced his notoriety.
“To drop notoriety even faster, I’ll make sculptures of angels and little children. Maybe Daycram made his mithril angel sculpture to lower his notoriety after committing a crime too.”
Weed, who was almost as good as a master sculptor, began working!
*Sparkle Twinkle Sparkle*
Pure and innocent, many young children with bright beaming smiles were carved.
Weed’s hard working persona was operating at full speed, he had already created over a hundred innocently smiling little girls.
“Good bye notoriety stat!”
*****
When Seo Yoon was not online, Yellowy, Golden Bird and Silver Bird spent their time watching the sculptures being made.
Since they were sculptural life forms they gained small amounts of EXP just by watching the process of a sculpture being made.
Golden Bird, Silver Bird and Yellowy were quietly talking amongst themselves.
“Owner’s been sculpting for quite a while now. I haven’t seen Owner with such a happy expression except when he’s beating me and when a good item drops.”
“I admit I was reluctant about Owner since I thought he was just a foul smelling Lich, but it seems his sculpting skills are pretty good. The most important thing about a sculptor are their sculpting skills.”
“Not only does Owner have good sculpting skills, Owner has a good personality.”
“Yellowy, does Owner really have a nice personality? Do you think that the day will come where we will think of him as a nice person too?”
“So far my life is; being beaten, being threatened to be eaten, and being ridden into battle against scary monsters, but Owner told me that I’m lucky to have a such good master like him.”
“Umm… Yellowy, I don’t think he’s being truthful.”
As the sculptures of life were conversing about their unfortunate lives, the little girl sculptures looked at Yellowy and suddenly licked their lips. It happened so quickly that no one could have seen it, but it was unmistakable, it had really happened.
Growing by itself, Weed’s Power of the Dead stat had started to affect his sculptures. Weed usually didn’t give much attention to the many sculptures he made. Only when the sculptures turned out decent did he briefly inspect them.
“Identify Sculpture.”
*Ting!*
