Chapter 54: The Ogre's Trail

This peculiar glow instantly captured Rein's attention.

Rein immediately picked up the mineral. As soon as it was in his hand, he felt a particularly heavy sensation.

"Hiss! This density is incredible, probably heavier than starsteel!"

Having previously learned about mineral identification from Blacksmith Boris, Rein was no longer completely clueless about minerals.

He first squeezed it firmly, then lightly chopped at it a few times with his greatsword, producing a crisp "ding ding" sound.

The mysterious mineral remained completely unscathed, further reinforcing Rein's judgment.

Judging solely by its hardness and weight, this mysterious mineral undoubtedly belonged to a rare category of specialized minerals.

Moreover, based on Rein's initial assessment, the value of this mineral was likely on par with Boris's famed starsteel.

Thinking it over, Rein didn't harbor the idea of pocketing the mineral for himself.
