1 Deeply Touching Copper
While the expedition was dealing with the Matallost Church quest, Weed made sculptures. Because the basement of the Embinyu Fortress had turned into an enormous dungeon, it wasn’t something that could be resolved in a day.
“There’s no end to the world of Sculpting.”
Sculpting had developed and changed over thousands of years. Along with drawing, it could be called the foundation of art.
Weed casually created sculptures of animals such as deer, rabbits, sheep, wolves, and foxes.
“They’re guys I’ve made so much that I’m sick of ’em.”
He vividly remembered the times when he sold them for just a few Coppers as souvenirs in Rosenheim Kingdom. Those were his beginner days, when he dreamt of making a mountain of Coppers and having fun. Back then, he had just taken the main features and had sculpted them cutely with his basic level of Sculpting.
“The simpler and more adorable they were, the better the souvenirs sold.”
It was necessary for them to be light, so the weight wouldn’t be burdensome. However, the deer and wolf Weed was making now were different.
“Now I have to try making a real wolf and deer.”
Weed shaped the deer into a form three times its real-life size. What’s more, he used precious stone materials such as granite and peridot. He sculpted the deer’s simple, innocent bright eyes, round nose, slender body and legs realistically over two days.
Ding!
You have completed the Spotted Deer Statue.
A work imbued with the passion of a Sculptor.
An ordinary animal was sculpted, but it was made with a Sculptor’s skilled techniques and sincerity.
It is somewhat regretful that it does not represent a creative idea or a new challenge. However, it is definitely worthy of being called the most outstanding deer among the countless number of deers in the continent. It is such a realistically portrayed work, that wolves will mistaken it for a real deer from far away and come running.
Artistic Value: A work by the Master Sculptor Weed. 72.
Special Options:
Those who see the Spotted Deer Statue will have Luck increased by 27% for a day. Increases the breeding rate of deer in the vicinity by 350%. Also increases the breeding rate of wolves by 230%. Improves the quality of leather and food ingredients from deer. The intelligence of deer has been improved and can not be easily hunted by monsters. Increases the likelihood of the appearance of large deer herds.
Sculpting skill proficiency has improved.
Fame has increased by 6.
Art stat has increased by 2.
The artistic value of the deer figurine wasn’t great because he had sculpted it many times before and it was common. Still, the options were what Weed had aimed for.
“There was nothing easier to hunt than deers during those beginner days.”
Deer would stay still even if you got close since they didn’t have a fear of people, and it was a beneficial animal that you could even get meat and leather from.
Weed paid a little more attention when he carved the fox and black bear. He portrayed the black bear extremely fiercely thrashing a tree with its front paws, and the fox was a 9-tailed fox.
The fertility of the black bears roaming around Morata has increased.
The foxes have become more clever and numerous.
The monsters for beginner hunting have abundantly increased.
“The leather and meat will come back to better Morata’s livelihood.”
With Morata possessing outstanding Tailoring skills, the leather of characteristic animals fetched a high price. That was a very positive development for tight-budgeted beginners!
“Shall I call it a happiness that grows the more it is shared?”
The wealthier the players in Morata became, the more there was to exploit. Weed set up the animal sculptures with that line of thinking. By making full use of the Sculptor profession, he was bringing about an immense change to the city.
Mooooooo!
The number of cows had increased, all thanks to Yellowy.
Back when Morata was occupied by the Vampires, there weren’t even any cows. Far from being able to raise cattle, the food situation was so poor that the Village Elder had to eat by digging up sweet potatoes. Later, the few cows brought by Merchants were raised by players who had chosen professions like Farmer, Shepherd, and Animal Handler. Barns were built, and there was a change in the cows who had grown up eating fresh grass. At night, the cows would mate in the barns. Moreover, if Yellowy went in and out of the barn, the heifers inside would get pregnant 100% of the time! Sturdy and excellent calves were born.
The cows that had roamed the North formed herds and even pressed into Morata. Yellowy was truly the Emperor of Bulls! The prey also increased because the bison and water buffalos multiplied.
However, the sculpture Weed was going to make with his true care and attention was not the animals.
“I have to make special sculptures.”
A gigantic sculpture made out of bronze, copper, or mixed metals!
With his Intermediate Blacksmithing skills, he could easily extract raw materials by putting japtem or dirt-cheap weapons into a furnace.
Weed sent a whisper.
Mapan.
Yes.
There is something I want you to procure for me.
What is it, please speak.
Please purchase an unlimited number of weapons, armor, and metal japtem, worth less than 1 Gold each.
That’s not difficult at all. But is it really okay for me to get as much as possible?
Yes.
And ah, what about the commission fee?
Mapan brought up the sensitive issue. Though they were on close relations, he couldn’t do business for free! However, Mapan was well aware it was not easy to extort money from Weed.
For the fee, I will give you information you can earn money from.
Good information was sometimes more valuable than gold for a Merchant. There was no doubt about it if it was information given by Weed, who even scammed little kids to extract money.
Okay. You can count on me.
Mapan used the stores in his possession to purchase metal japtem. Since japtem could be sold comfortably at a decent price, the beginners welcomed it.
“But why is that Merchant buying this many cheap weapons and armor?”
“Apparently it’s a request from the Lord of Morata. The Lord of Morata is doing it for the sake of the beginners.”
“As expected. Morata’s got low taxes and no territoriality about the hunting grounds. It’s really worth calling it heaven, compared to the Central Continent.”
Favorable responses towards to the Lord continued to increase.
Mapan piled up the japtem he gathered like that near the Goddess Freya statue at the artificial lake. The japtem was piled up like a mountain, on such an impressive scale that it was enough to remind one of a junkyard or scrapyard from reality.
Weed mobilized Morata’s blacksmiths to produce a huge furnace.
Abusing his power as a Lord!
Although there were bound to be quite a lot of production requests for weapons and armor by players, there were no complaints at the rumour that it was for the construction of a sculpture. It was because they knew how helpful a sculpture was once it was finished. There were even a considerable number of people who made requests to make a sculpture relating to their profession.
However, Weed had already decided what kind of sculpture to create.
“I’m going to need a ton of molten metal.”
He employed the Blacksmiths to extract the raw materials of the various minerals. Among the raw materials Weed pulled out, he decided to use the brass.
With its low price and nice color, it was a widely favored material for beginner weapons! Actually, it was normal to sell brass weapons at a general store or throw them away when you got to level 20. That was because they had poor durability and damage, so they would often break in the middle of a fight.
