The Dwarf Art Hand
There was someone accompanied the Wyverns that flew over the hills of the Thor Kingdom.
The man's identity was none other than Weed!
Weed walked with the carving knife out after he sent the Wyverns into the sky.
“I gotta find me a small rock.”
When he carved the Orc Karichwi, the rock was a sizable one; but it shouldn't necessarily be at that size this time around.
However, it was difficult for him to find a worthy rock.
Due to the lustrous forest dense with trees, the rocks were well hidden by the mountain.
“Ima just go with wood then.”
Weed cut a branch from the tree and cleaved the foliage on the upper part of the branch to make a Log.
He was prepping the material with the Sculpturing Skill.
After that, he used the Carving Knife to give it finer details.
At first, the overall composition of the head and torso were made, from there he pondered about the measurement of the legs.
“If I make it about 30% shorter than normal, it should be right.”
Weed worked while squatting down in order to use it as a comparison.
He carved thick and ample legs, no waist from the hip to the chest; resulted in a thickly built figure.
“I have a feeling the Log’s lacking…”
Despite the thickest wood he obtained nearby as material, he felt it was rather deficient.
Weed reluctantly held the piece with both hands and continued to carve. He made bold short arms, and decided on how to carve the head as the last remaining region.
“Dwarf. I have to match the Dwarves’ properties.”
Dwarves, stubborn and never abdicate.
Possessed by the excitement in a battle against Monsters and never backing down, for the ones who chose their profession as Champions or Warriors.
Naturally, they were the strongest of species, disregarding the standard set with their small stature.
At the same time, with the innate Handicraft Skill, anything placed in Craftsmen’s crude hand can be fashioned into something beautiful.
The interpersonal relationship of the Dwarves is not something harmonious.
In many cases, those that have decided their lives to their goal as a craftsman, stay inside their workshops and do not come out.
Because of this, in contrast to their great works, they do not get along well with others unlike the other species.
The Race have said to brighten up with exceptional quality of ores, gems, Mithril and the likes; the Race that said to have an unusual greed for equipment and materials.
The species that loves molten metal and purely adorn nothing.
Weed carved the stocky figure of the Dwarf.
With a wayward mouth and despising saggy eyes even at times with no other to stare at.
Long and full beard that ran down to the chest.
By one strand to another, the hair seems to be given life within the beard.
If the Sculpturing Skill hadn’t reach such a cultivated state, such finer detail was not possible.
Similarly, at this point, the short and thick arms and legs were fashioned.
Weed was pleased with the self-made sculpture.
“At this level, it’s pretty good for a dwarf I haven’t even seen, huh?”
It was not scary to look at night comparing to the Orc Karichwi he made.
“It’s not bad at this level. Shape Shifting Sculpture!”
Used Shape Shifting Sculpture.
For having infinite affection toward the Sculpture, the Sculptor and the Sculpture will resemble one another!
Weed’s body changed to assume the divine figure of the sculpture.
His stature was getting shorter, legs thickened. His trunk got thin and his arms also thickened. On the other hand, his head grew larger and his beard was growing longer. And wrinkles formed around his eyes, making his age unknown.
◦The shape of the body have gotten smaller, many equipment the body is wearing at the moment is impossible to use.
◦The armor plate or the body armor accidentally slipped to the mouth.
◦Depending on the form of the race, new necessary equipment are needed.
Due to the impact of the Shape Shifting Sculpture, Endurance, Strength, Luck will increase slightly.
Effectiveness of the Handicraft Skill increases by 5%.
Art stat is rising dramatically.
Shape Shifting Sculpture skill will be effective until it is lifted.
“Keoheoheoheum!”
Weed gave a long cough as a Dwarf.
And he walked toward the direction of the targeted Dwarf village.
Being a short legged Dwarf, the center of gravity that came along with it made it very easy, but with every step taken, he was panting at a lot of spot during the distance traveled.
Nevertheless, Weed diligently moved with each step while being lost in thoughts.
“This time, what should the Dwarf’s name be, hmm?”
In his head, several names flashed by.
Just as Orc karichwi, he needed a name that leaves a strong impression.
“Art Hand. This is a name that can express the delicate world of art.”

When Lee Hyun was released from the capsule, his school friends were sitting in the lounge drinking beverages while watching TV.
Heroes of the Versailles Continent.
It was the CTS Media’s own information program.
It report news quickly and introduces information of castles or villages of starters; a more in-depth analysis oriented kind of program.
MCed by one with a comedic background, with wits and humor that came along with him, the show had a considerable audience.
“Oppa, you’re done?”
Min Sura asked pleasantly, Lee Hyun nodded his head.
“Yeah.”
“Did you do a lot of hunting?”
“No. I had to go somewhere so I didn’t hunt at all.”
“Where did you go?”
Choe Sang Jun cut in the middle and asked with a sudden interest.
“Thor Kingdom.”
“When you say Thor Kingdom, you mean the Dwarves kingdom?”
Choe Sang Jun asked in wonder.
The other school friends who barraged each other seemed to also be quite interested.
“It’s one of the places I want to go to if it’s that Dwarves kingdom.”
“What does the Thor Kingdom look like?”
However, Lee Hyun didn’t have an apparent answer to that question.
“I’ve only just arrived in the vicinity of the kingdom…I have yet to enter the village so I can’t say.”
“Ah, so that’s it.”
Lee Yu Jeong nodded her head.
The Versailles Continent was really extensive, to move from one kingdom to another logically shouldn’t take just one or two days.
Even if he does ride on a horse or carriage, he'd still have to climb mountains and take the winding roads, so it will take a long time before reaching the desired location.
Therefore, it was understandable the he had not entered the Thor Kingdom as of yet.
Park Sunjo said with concerns.
“I’ve also went to the Thor Kingdom. But Hyeong, are you some kind of Merchant?”
“Why is that?”
“Those that are of the warrior series occupation doesn’t go well at Thor Kingdom. Magicians and elementalists are also just like that. They are seriously territorial. But if you’re a Merchant that takes the goods of the Thor Kingdom to sell, then you’d be fine as you’re greatly benefiting the south.”
Lee Hyun answered after a bit of hesitation.
“I’m a Sculptor.”
“……”
“……”
