Weed had placed Mapan in charge of disposing of the high quality loot japtem from the Necromancers. The Necromancers had levels that exceed 300 and some even past 400. He had made the undead hunt a lot and had now piled up a colossal amount of japtem. Weed gave the japtem to Mapan so that he could directly sell it to the store for an additional 15% of its value. Then he calculated 5% to be taken as profit. When trading in town, merchants that bought japtem usually got a small margin and 10% was usually the default amount .
“Isn’t he a really good merchant?”
“I know. I’ve dealt with traders a few times in the past but I’ve never seen a good a deal as 5%. Is it because he’s a professional?”
They wanted to sell of their items they got from the Necromancers. They were very nervous to walk around with the burden of carrying japtem. Weed took a guess and then went over to introduce Mapan.
“Say hello here. This is Mapan, a merchant I’m close to from the past. If you want to get rid of your japtem then I could ask him to take care of it for the same price he got for me.”
“Can I really? I don’t have the time to go to the shop to find a merchant since I want to go with Weed nim.”
‘5 percent isn’t much compared to all the trouble I went through to come here…’
It would have been bad if Mapan had met with the Necromancers. Transportation costs were high given how high the risks were.
“This is fine. Mapan is a very good merchant. He used to trade a lot in the past with japtem but now he rarely has the chance since he needs to manage his trade store.”
Mapan then went to say.
“I like adventures so I came here to watch Weed. I would also like to take care of the japtem as an extra. It’s a sacrifice I’m willing to take.”
They came with Necromancer japtem. They could sell it for 2 or 3% in Morata but this was the best price that had seen yet.
‘How much is all of this.’
Mapan could earn a lot of money from the trade of japtem if it was in bulk.
They were offering their Necromancer japtem!
There were accessories as well as rusty, broken weapons and armor. Weed had deliberately let Mapan deal with classifying the japtem since he could repair it for more profit.
Weed could dissolve and rework it into respectable equipment with his blacksmith skill. Mapan earned a lot more through the 5% profit margin and had an excellent opportunity to get a lot of customers.
After finishing the japtem deal, Weed and Mapan walked back to the carriage quietly. They had been partners the entire time! They only talked to each other secretly with whispers.
>Here’s the referral fee…
>Thank you. Please allow the identifying of the materials to be handed to me. I’ll dissolve the equipment there.
>You’re welcome. If you have another opportunity like this be sure to call me.
>However, do you have a lot of people to sell necromancer stuff to?
>Warlocks. The Necromancer items will easily sell in Morata.
Not only did he plan to sell the Necromancer items, he had planned to use them.

He stoked the fires of the large furnaces that were set up temporarily.
“I have to be careful…failure is not allowed.”
Weed was nervous because he was using the precious metal helium.
“It would be nicer to have higher blacksmith skills.”
If he was a master blacksmith then he could make the best items from the helium! With the holy materials he could make a piece of armor that could represent a kingdom. However Weed decided to make the helium into a sculpture.
“A sculpture has no level limit. Later I can melt it down and make it into a sword.”
Weed thought of sculptings with a practical sense rather than an artistic one.
“Once the mold is ready.”
He had created countless molds in advance when he had been hunting with the Death Knights as a Doom Knight. Since Weed was working with the large furnace, Pale’s party along with the paladins, priests, and Geomchis went to hunt in the nearby area. They were wondering what he was doing with such a large furnace. Weed made the fire have an even higher temperature. He stocked the large furnace full of firewood to gradually increase the heat. To increase his chance of success he used more firewood to increase the firepower as much as he could.
“Still not enough. Needs more firewood.”
Weed had given money to Mapan to transport a significant amount of wood in his wagon. Because he was working on helium he could not conserve on the amount of trees used.
He used the strongest, finest burning trees for it. The firewood that cost over 300 gold in total was used up in 10 minutes.
“Still not enough.”
Weed focused entirely on the fire.
“I wonder if he’s making a mithril sword?”
“I suppose that would be a good weapon to hunt down Bar Khan.”
The priests and paladins were waiting for Weed in order to hunt down Bar Khan. They were currently in high tension while wondering what he was doing with the large furnace. The majority of them had went on hunting parties to fight against necromancers.
Noel: Weed is trying to make something in the hearth’s fire. Since he brought a large furnace from town, it must be something important.
The Grass Porridge Cult was able to watch in real time because the videos were on the internet.
This was the reason why Weed did not go with other users to hunt frequently and that was because he didn’t want to divide up the spoils but also because he valued his privacy. The advantage of fighting by himself was that he could hide his production skills and sculpture secrets instead of putting it out in the open for others to see.
“Now the temperature of the fire is suitable.”
Weed pulled out the massive helium. The metal known as the Tears of the Sky God. He put the prestigious helium into the furnace. The furnace was large enough to melt many metals at once but he concentrated solely on the helium.
He watched over the fire!
Weed was muttering to himself.
“I had to give up being greedy to get better results. If only they had given me Herrera’s Cup or the Crown of Fargo…”
