Chapter 43: Real Use OF Epic Class.

Making his way out of the castle, Lioro managed to find his trusted guide.

"Please! Let me go! Let me go!"

Looking at the foam coming out of the guide's mouth, Lioro raised his hand and cast a tier 2 mind-calming spell.

"Mind Of Undead."

A green light enveloped the Quagoa, making him stop screaming and look at Lioro with a blank expression.

"Let's go to the dwarves."

The Quagoa nodded his head before getting up and absentmindedly making his way toward the dwarves' territory.

Lioro silently followed behind, thinking in his mind that [Mind Of Undead] was quite a useful spell.

He will try to upgrade it later on, but there might be some unexpected results.

Following behind the Quagoa, Lioro backtracked his way through the Death and Lava zone before coming in front of a long narrow bridge.

At the end of the bridge was a big metal door blocking the way forward.

"Behind it is the territory of the dwarves..."

Pointing at the metal door, the Quagoa said in a dull voice.

Lioro nodded his head.

"Alright, you're free to go."

The Quagoa looked at Lioro, then calmly walked toward the edge of the cliff.

Then, under Lioro's confused eyes, the Quagoa jumped without a second thought.

Lioro couldn't help but run up to the end of the cliff and look down.

Unfortunately, it was too deep and he couldn't see anything because of the fog.

Looking at the spot the Quagoa jumped down from, Lioro actually felt a little bad.

The guide had been with him for a few hours, he planned to let him go but now he suddenly committed suicide.

Lioro scratched his nose and made a mental note to not treat the monsters so ruthlessly in the future

Turned away from the cliff and walked towards the metal door.

Looking at the huge door in front of him, Lioro went ahead and knocked loudly on it.

*Clank*Clank*Clank*

Taking a step back, Lioro waited.

But even after some time, no one opened the gate.

So Lioro threw his trusted friend Hollow Purple at it.

Hey, you got a problem? Throw a Hollow Purple at it!

Honestly, that was his modus operandi at this point.

Hollow Purple hit the metal door, but it didn't crumble on contact as the metal seemed to contain magic resistance.

But it only managed to hold on for a few more seconds before succumbing to the power of Hollow Purple.

Walking through the crumbled door, Lioro looked at the stunned dwarves around him in full plate armor.

"I have defeated your enemy, the frost dragons and Quagoas, so allow me to use your forge."

The dwarves looked at each other in confusion.

----

Lioro looked at the eight dwarves in front of him who were the highest commanding authority among this kingdom of dwarves.

The Regency Council.

Looking at them, Lioro asked.

"Have you finished your investigation?"

The senior dwarf with a long white beard stepped forward and said.

"On behalf of the entire dwarven kingdom, we would like to thank you, sir...."

Of the eight, all except the forge master bowed to Lioro.

Only the forge master, who in the original stole Ains's metal, remained indifferent and didn't lower his back.

Lioro didn't care.

"Can I use your forge now?"

He had already been waiting for more than an hour now and was getting impatient.

"Of course! Please come with us!"

The Regency Council members led Lioro toward the best blacksmith workshop within their kingdom.

Coming to the large workshop, Lioro nodded in satisfaction before bringing out the corpse of a frost dragon from his inventory.

"F-frost dragon!"

"How did it appear out of nowhere?"

While the dwarves were shouting in shock, Lioro pointed at the ground and summoned an undead.

"Undead Summon 4th: Elder Lich."

A magic circle formed on the ground and the figure of an Elder Lich appeared.

"U-Undead?!"

The dwarves took a step back in fear.

The Elder Lich ignored the dwarves and bowed toward Lioro.

"Master."

"Skin the Frost dragon, separate its outer shell, meat, blood and everything...."

Lioro commanded while summoning 10 more Elder Liches.

Then, under the horrified eyes of the dwarves, he also brought out 6 more corpses of the frost dragons.

Looking at the undead skillfully taking apart the dragon's corpse, the dwarves looked at each other in confusion.

While the Elder Liches were busy, Lioro picked up a suitable hammer and then walked up to the anvil and took out several materials from his inventory.

"Get me some adamantine, mithril, Orichalchum, and....."

Lioro said to the members of the Regency Council.

"Y-yes!"

Not wanting to dissatisfy him who could kill frost dragons in any way, the dwarves quickly sprang into action, gathering the required materials for him.

After everything was ready, Lioro raised his hammer and brought it down on the frost dragon's shell.

*Clank*

From the very first hit, the dwarves' eyes widened.

*Clank*

Holding their breaths, the dwarves stared with unblinking eyes, afraid to miss even a second of Lioro's work.

----

Days passed by.

During that time Lioro returned back to E-rantel ever so often to spend time with his family before disappearing back to the dwarven forge.

By now the entirety of the dwarves have surrounded the forge, sitting together like a bunch of children, surrounding Lioro who kept moving his hammer.

*Clank*

Finally on the 8th day.

Lioro put down his hammer and looked at the pieces of equipment in front of him.

Using his passive skill he looked at their stats.

Using all the knowledge and Passives brought to him by his Epic class, he was able to use a level 40 Ice dragon King's body to make Legendary equipment.

It was crazy and actually impossible in Yggdraeil.

This was the power of an Epic class.

Looking at the added Effects on his Dragon ring, Lioro felt his heart bleed.

9 million experience!

That's how much he paid for the added effect!

Adding mind Immunity to the ring cost 7 million while the deat Negation took 2 million.

It was expensive! But worth it.

But this wasn't all!

Clenching his fists, Lioro looked at the set effect of his equipment.

Putting on the frost dragon rings, Lioro activated their Passive Spatial Armour.

Suddenly the entire set of Armour including the Lance and the Shield lit up with ancient blue encryption before disappearing into the void and appearing behind Lioro.

With a big smile on his face, Lioro spread open his arms.

In the next moment, the frost dragon king's Armour split open like a living being and enveloped his body.

The draconic Shield appeared in his right hand while the lance was on his left.

The draconic Mantle attached itself to his back, excluding a cold effect, covering the ground in frost.

Experiencing the feeling of power rushing through his body, Lioro raised his spear making a pair of large draconic wings spread out from his back.

"Oh....what magnificence!....."

The Dwarves said with frozen tears flowing down their eyes.

With their eyes filled with deep reverence all the dwarves simultaneously kowtowed towards Lioro.

Completely ignoring the frost which was slowly spreading out and freezing them.

Lioro silently used infinity to block the aoe effect of his equipment and prevent the dwarves from freezing to death.

Looking at the kneeling before him his smile inside the armour grew even wider.

Turning to the workbench he looked at the other equipment he crafted.

There was a frost dragon sword, a frost dragon knife, and a frost dragon's bow.

They were not part of the set but still, each of them reached Legendary grade.

Lioro placed them inside his inventory.

Then just when he was about to leave, the dwarf with the lo.g beard suddenly stood up and said in a loud voice.

"My lord! God of the blacksmith! We are willing to submit to your rule!"

Lioro stopped and couldn't help but look at the dwarves surrounding him.

None of them refuted the elder's claim, in fact, all of them looked at him with hopeful eyes like little children.

Even the haughty forgemaster was the same.

Looking at the dwarves, Lioro thought for a moment before using his ring to put away his frost dragon set.

Walking up to the Elder dwarf, Lioro said.

"My base is in E-rantel, if you want to follow me then you will have to leave the mountain and come there."

"E-rantel? The border City?"

"Yes, it's a human city under the Re-Estize kingdom."

Before the Elder could say anything, the forgemaster stood up and shouted in a loud energetic voice.

"We are willing! We are willing to follow the divine smith anywhere!"

"What about you guys?"

Lioro asked while looking at the other dwarves.

"We are willing!"

They all shouted at the same time.

Lioro nodded then said to the Elder dwarf.

"We will need to buy a large place in E-Rantel for all of you to stay."

"Please don't worry lord! Our clan's treasury will be more than enough to solve the issues!"

"Alright then, take me to the treasury."

Under the dwarves' lead, Lioro entered their treasury and placed all of their treasure inside his prop box.

Looking at the empty place, he had to say that his passive skill prop box was quite overpowered.

'Along with several frost dragon corpses, I have also stored a lot of treasure inside my prop box yet it shows no sign of filling up.'

It was like his inventory was endless or something, which was different from a Yggdrasil player who had limited space.

After getting the treasure, Lioro took the dwarf Elder along with a few Council members and teleported back to E-rantel.
