Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

[Armor Crafting Specialization lv1 (Passive): As an armor smith who has studied the forging of metal armor for years, you're very familiar with the production of various metal armors, slightly improving the success rate of metal armor production.]

Oh!

Is it actually a core skill for production?

Rein's heart suddenly felt a chill!

What he wanted, of course, was a core combat skill, but to his surprise, this time it was a manufacturing core skill.

This gave Rein a sense of false happiness.

But there was nothing he could do about it now, so Rein continued to look at the skill effect description:

[Core Skill: Armor Crafting Specialization lv1 (Passive)]

Armor Crafting Specialization lv1 (Passive) effect: The pass rate of all the metal armors you make will significantly increase, the rate of good quality slightly increase, and the rate of high quality subtly improve.

This content quickly made Rein fall into deep thought!

This core skill... Read exclusive content at empire

Seems not to be useless after all!

Perhaps, when I can make higher-level knight plate armor, it could have a miraculous effect.

Keep in mind, it's quite difficult for a normal armor smith to forge high-quality knight plate armor, but with this core skill of Armor Crafting Specialization...

Rein had already vaguely thought of scenarios where he could apply this core skill effectively.

However... this can be put aside for now, and not rushed.

At this time, Rein turned to carefully review his panel.

The original Blacksmith panel had vanished, and now the Armor Smith Profession Panel was displayed.

However, unlike the other three Transcendent professions, the color of the Armor Smith's profession panel was still white, indicating a regular profession, not a Transcendent one.

Also, Rein quickly noticed that, as previously reminded by the system, all of the original Blacksmith skills were incorporated into the Armor Smith panel.

After being promoted to Armor Smith, the additional two points in Strength and two points in Constitution increased Rein's Strength from 17 points to 19 points and his Constitution from 19 points to 21 points, crossing into the twenties.

Feeling the surge of strength throughout his body, Rein felt a wave of joy inside.

The promotion in Profession Level typically only offers one free attribute point per level up, but now Rein had gained four attribute points at once upon transitioning from Blacksmith to Armor Smith.

This was equivalent to increasing Profession Level by four levels.

Additionally, with the increase of these four attribute points, Rein's physical limit had directly increased from 75% to 83%, getting closer and closer to the 100% breaking limit.

His most important gain however was that, through this forging process Rein further proved that when forging is successfully combined with witchcraft, it would greatly enhance the experience in the forging profession.

After thinking for a while, Rein decided not to continue building the Cavalry set and planned to return to his manor.

He intended to make some preparations before a long journey.

...

Inside Rein's new manor.

His daughter Jenny had already returned to the Crowly family manor while the beautiful Jennifer was currently in a bedroom of Rein's new manor, taking a bath.

As for why Jennifer stayed at Rein's side instead of returning to the Crowly family's manor, Jennifer convinced herself with a simple reason: she was now also the housekeeper of Rein's new Baronial estate.

So, as a housekeeper, she naturally needed to prepare a bedroom for herself in the new manor.

As the warm water streamed over certain parts of her body, the beautiful woman couldn't help but gently close her eyes, reminiscing about the beauty of that night.

She hadn't experienced that kind of exquisite sensation in over a year.

And at her age, it was precisely the time she needed it the most....

But of course, what was crucial was that the young man was incredibly 'gifted'.

The beautiful woman thought about how the young man was not only genuinely gifted in strength but also 'gifted' in that aspect, and suddenly felt a wave of crisis.

Sigh! She was ultimately too old, no longer the 'fresh' young girl.

In the future, as the young man's power grows, his status will inevitably rise, and the excellent women he could meet would increase....

Even though she never thought of becoming the other half of the young man, at least she wanted to have a place in his heart. Jennifer thought to herself.

Rely on family background?

She was born to a middle-class merchant, and the Crowly family was just an ordinary Baronial family, while now, the young man was already a Baron... Clearly, it wouldn't work!

Rely on beauty?

Jennifer, touching her still pretty face with the water, felt confident for the moment, but after all, she wasn't eighteen… she guessed that confidence would diminish over time!

Rely on decent business skills?

No, that was also merely an icing on the cake, requiring strong personal support.

Looking at it, to keep the young man tied to herself in some way seemed to only have one method left.

At this thought, a blush quickly spread across the beautiful woman's face because she remembered something a friend had said while drunk—'Why am I not pretty, but can keep a man's heart? Because I'm naughty....'

While the beautiful woman was entertaining a bold idea, Rein had also returned to the new manor.

After a quick wash upon returning to his bedroom, Rein began his daily practice of basic meditation techniques.

The last time, just before Anna left, when his Spirit Attribute had reached 23 points, he was already able to visualize twenty Will runes at once.

Now, with his Spirit Attribute reaching 25 points, Rein could visualize twenty-two Will runes at once.
