Chapter 85: Old man Ornn

"What do you mean by that John?" Cana asked as she took a sip of her juice as they were currently resting from the rides.

"Well, I bought a spot to meet a famous craftsman, and when this number tag glows, it symbolizes that it's time for the meeting." John said as he showed them his tag.

Ur who was eating crepe also saw the tag and said in surprise. "Ornn's token? You were actually lucky enough to get that old man's token."

"What do you mean lucky? I bought this thing with my money, it cost me 1 million Jewels you know?" John said as he complained about the absurd price of this tag.

"I know that the tag costs 1 million Jewels, but that old man has an eccentric temper, he would only meet with someone interesting or lucky, if not you would get rejected from buying the tag." Ur explained with a bit of annoyance.

"And that man only sells his tokens on the 12th day of every month, and if you are unlucky you won't even be able to buy one."

"You seem to have experienced it yourself, Miss Ur?" John asked curiously when he saw her complaining that much.

"..." Ur was silent because she indeed experienced it herself, but she didn't want to embarrass herself, so she just said. "You'll know when you look for that old man."

John just smiled as he stood up and bid farewell to them. "I'll be going, don't worry if I don't come back tonight."

"Okay take care, be careful of being scammed, alright?" Cana said as she waved her hand to say goodbye to John.

John also waved and then turned to walk toward the west side of Crocus as the amusement park was on the east side.

After a few minutes of walking, John reached the Forger of Myths store, he pushed open the door and entered to see that Anna was still sitting behind the desk reading a novel this time.

Anna looked up from her book to see who entered and greeted John when she saw that it was him.

"Good afternoon, John, it seems that you are very lucky and only two days have passed and you got selected already."

"Hahahaha, the others in the guild also say I'm lucky." John said while thinking, Gray and Lyon always said he was lucky when playing Mage auto chess, so this counts right?

Anna smiled and held out her hand to him and said. "Alright, enough chitchat, number tag please."

John took out the tag and handed it to her, Anna took it and put it back under the desk, after that she stood up and did a few signs in front of the iron door, a magic circle appeared on the door and turned for awhile then vanished.

Creeeeeeeeeeak.

With a creaking sound, the huge iron door opened leaving a big dark hole with stairs leading downwards, Anna then gestured for John to enter.

"Just keep walking down and you'll reach a wide hall with blacksmithing tools inside it, you'll see the master right after entering it."

John nodded and started to walk down the stairs, as he walked down the lamps on the side of the stairs will light up, and after a few hundred meters of walking a light could be seen in the distance.

He quickly walked into the hall as he heard a clanging sound from the middle of the hall, John saw a huge furnace burning with intense red light as intense waves of magic power gushed out from it.

As he walked over he saw a huge figure hammering something on the anvil and every time it happened a huge clang sound will resound along with a wave of magic power throughout the hall.

John just stood a distance from the forge as he waited for the man to finish forging, and just like that John waited for the man for at least an hour before the man was done forging.

THUD!

With a loud thud, the man dropped the large hammer he used to forge and started to shrink as he walked over until he was about the same size as John.

"Not bad kid, you have the patience that others don't have. Now, tell me kid what do you want to forge?" The old man asked.

This old man has short white hair with ruby-red pupils, he walked with steady steps as he took a sip of his coffee.

"You should be Senior Ornn, right? I would like you to forge these please." John said politely as he took out a piece of paper that has the ghost ripper's claw measured in detail.

Ornn took the paper and looked at it, he then walked to an area beside the forge where there was a pillar with a giant spinning wheel packed with small lines that separated it into thousands of different pieces.

John can see some options like, upgrade, reject, hunting, paying, and a lot of things that he can't see as they are too blurry in his eyes.

Ornn pressed a switch at the side of the pillar and it started to spin rapidly until it was so fast that all he could see is a blur, he started to laugh wildly as he walked to a stage 300 meters from the pillar.

"Let's see if you are really as lucky as the others in your guild say." Ornn said as he took out a dart and aimed for the dart board on the pillar.

"What do you mean by that, Senior?" John asked even though he already have an idea about where this is going.

"Isn't obvious, whatever the dart lands on will decide what I will do with you, if it lands on an upgrade then I will upgrade your item to be more superior."

"If it landed on pay, you will pay for the stuff just like a normal visit to a store, if it lands on reject then I will not be forging your item, get it?" Ornn asked with a smile as he aimed carefully.

John had a wry smile but he can't stop the old man because he paid 1 million for this, he just hopes that his luck will be good today and won't land on anything bad like reject.

Whoosh.

And just like that the Ornn threw the dart in his hand and it pierced the air and landed on the dartboard in just a second, as for what it landed on, they had to wait for it to slow down.

After thirty seconds the dartboard started to slow down, and when it finally stopped John saw that the dart landed on the section between upgrade and subjugation.

"Oh? You are quite a lucky brat, you got the special two for one. With this, you'll receive an upgrade on your item." Ornn said drawing out the last part, John was annoyed but he didn't say anything waiting for the next sentence.

"You'll have to subjugate a dark guild for me, it's been a long time since this option has been picked so I'm getting a bit excited." After saying that, Ornn took out a box with a hole on top.

And before John could ask anything else, Ornn shove his hand inside the box and took out a piece of paper, he unfolded it to reveal the words- Ghoul Spirit.

"Okay kid, it looks like the dark guild you will be dealing with is the Ghoul Spirit Dark Guild, you can get your item from me when you finished dealing with them, and there's no need to pay, bye-bye kiddo."

After saying that Ornn took out a button and pressed it, and before John could even react a magic circle appeared underneath him the next moment he was sitting on the floor of the shop with Anna looking at him with a smile.
