Master Bessiemer began to regret his decision. He regretted not coming closer when Abel was repairing the magic Knight's sword. Instead, he decided to watch from afar.
He had never heard of this method of repairing a magic weapon. The first thing that came to his mind was a secret technique. Every profession had their own secret techniques, and they came from all kinds of sources.
Some secret techniques were found in ancient ruins, some were inherited from certain races, and some were created by accident. No matter what, secret techniques had always been passed down in the Holy Continent.
Master Bessiemer was a Blacksmith Master. He had seen a lot of things, and he was sure that he had never seen anyone repair a magic weapon with just a few strikes. This was completely different from the forging skills he had learned.
Almost all forging skills in the Holy Continent came from the dwarfs. They all came from the same source. He couldn't think of any other explanation other than a secret technique.
Abel sensed that someone was approaching, and he frowned. No matter what industry it was, it was very impolite for others to approach when someone was operating.
At this moment, he had already taken out a knight's sword from his portal bag. There were two deep cuts on this knight's sword.
"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?" Abel stopped his work and asked in a deep voice.
"I'm Bessiemer from the Blacksmith Department. I was attracted by your repair!" Master Bessiemer knew he was being rude, so he quickly explained politely.
When Abel heard the name Bessiemer, he remembered this was Master Bessiemer, a friend of the Grand Knight Of The Bodley. The sword he gave to the Grand Knight Of The Bodley was appraised by Master Bessiemer.
"Master Bessiemer, I'm here to repair a weapon!" Abel said as he waved the broken Knight's sword in his hand.
"I can see that, but I'm curious. How did you fix it? Can you let me have a look at the broken knight's sword you just fixed?" Master Bessemer asked in a sincere voice.
"Of course!" Said Abel, pointing at the knight's big sword that was just repaired. It was still waiting for its cooldown to be put into the portal bag. Then he made a "please" gesture.
Master Bessiemer reached out his hand and picked up the Knight's sword. The heat in his hand indicated that the sword had just left the furnace, but he couldn't find any traces of repair on the Knight's sword.
"This is impossible!" Master Bessiemer mumbled.
His eyes were almost close to the sword, carefully observing every trace. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he could not find any traces of repair on the sword.
He gently flicked his finger on the sword. This was a very simple way to identify whether the sword was damaged or not.
He could tell that there were 4 hidden wounds on the body of the knight's sword. However, none of the wounds were in the center of the sword, which meant that the place where the sword was broken in his memory was not damaged.
Almost all weapons that had been used had hidden wounds. Of course, if you wanted a weapon without hidden wounds, you had to use high-quality materials, such as Abel's sword made of pure iron.
Hidden wounds were small cracks that appeared when the Knight's sword collided with hard objects. Of course, these small cracks wouldn't affect the use of the Knight's sword.
However, when the hidden wounds accumulated to a certain extent, they would suddenly erupt. Weapons with serious hidden wounds might directly break in a violent collision.
The Knight's sword in Bessiemer's hand was an old weapon, so it was normal for it to have a few hidden wounds. However, what was abnormal was that the broken part was repaired too perfectly. This was completely beyond his imagination.
Master Bessiemer was a Blacksmith Master, but at the same time, he was also a Knight. Although he was only an intermediate Knight, he was able to channel his combat power into his weapon.
His white combat power entered the Knight's sword. Soon, he judged that the magic effect of the Knight's sword had been completely repaired. In his opinion, this was a 100% repair.
If Abel knew what he was thinking at this moment, he would definitely tell him that he was overthinking. Abel had just tested the repair result, and it was only a 95% repair. Because of the broken part, the runes were slightly affected. Although the runes were connected, the effect was still a little weaker.
Of course, only a powerful power of the will like Abel could discover this slight difference. Ordinary blacksmiths wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
"May I ask, how did you repair it?" Although Master Bessiemer knew it was very presumptuous of him to ask this question, his passion for forging made him ask it.
"Master Bessiemer, this is my secret. I won't stop you from watching, but I won't answer any of your questions!" Abel shook his head and said to Master Bessiemer.
Master Bessemer didn't expect Abel to answer his question. He just didn't expect Abel to allow him to watch from the side. This was a secret skill. Although he couldn't learn it just by looking at it, as long as there was a hint, a Blacksmith Master like him would be able to study it in depth.
Abel didn't care about what Bessiemer thought. He put the Knight's sword with two cuts into the furnace and stepped on the air bag twice to raise the temperature of the furnace.
When the Knight's sword began to redden, Abel took the Knight's sword out of the furnace and placed it on the anvil. He then raised the huge hammer in his right hand high.
"Clang! Clang!" The huge hammer heavily smashed into the Knight's sword. Abel then put down the huge hammer and began to redirect the energy from the magic gems with his power of the will. Soon, the energy smoothly passed through the runes on the sword. With a light hum, the Magic Knight's sword was successfully repaired.
Master Bessiemer, who had watched the whole process, widened his eyes. His face was full of disbelief.
"This is impossible. How could this happen?" A voice kept repeating in his heart. He felt that his career as a blacksmith had been wasted. Everything he had learned had collapsed.
Every cut on the Magic Knight's sword could be repaired with just one hit. This method of repair made his world collapse. His blacksmithing ability, which he was most proud of, became a joke at this moment.
"What kind of secret skill is this?" Master Bessiemer murmured in a hoarse voice. His mouth was dry.
"Secret skill?" Abel was stunned. This was not a secret technique. He was using brute force to forcefully mend the damaged area. However, this wasn't done casually. It was done through a lot of calculations, the best angle, the most correct strength, and the precise control of his own strength.
"You don't have to answer. I shouldn't have asked!" Master Bessiemer said in a daze.
Abel shook his head. He didn't understand what was wrong with Master Bessiemer. He threw the repaired Magic Knight's sword to the side and took out a damaged magic weapon.
Master Bessemer stood quietly on the side. He watched Abel repair the weapon. Normal wounds only needed one hit, two hits for serious ones, and three hits for those that couldn't be healed at all.
At this point, Master Bessiemer began to suspect that the wizard in front of him was Guru Abel. He couldn't think of any other wizard who could repair magic weapons with this level of skill. However, he quickly rejected this idea because they were different.
After watching Abel repair the magic weapon a few times, he was sure that this was not a blacksmith's forging method.
"No blacksmith can do this, not even a grandmaster blacksmith!" Master Bessiemer's heart skipped a beat every time Abel struck the magic weapon. After a few times, he was almost certain.
Could this be a secret skill for wizards?
Master Bessiemer thought to himself. Maybe this was a secret skill that was tailor-made for wizards in ancient times. This method of repair only required three hits at most, which solved the problem of wizards' strength.
