A couple of hours after Zeke’s departure is announced, the hero decided to prepare his things. He placed these in his inventory and made as many things in the forge as needed. After all, he’s not sure that he can use a forge on another kingdom and, even if he could, there is a great chance that he will be stopped. There is also the chance that the forge isn’t as good as the one that Heimdal does which is actually the greatest chance of being the case since, it is agreed within the whole of the kingdom that Heimdal’s forge is the second best. Only being beaten by the king’s forge.Then there is the third problem which is that, there can be those that would scout him while he goes on the forge. Not only this but it will also reveal his secondary job class. A trait that he wants to keep a secret as much as he could. The less of his hand that he shows, the greater his chances of winning after all. So he’s going to keep these things to himself until he gets strong enough to not care about

Sylvia looked at Zeke for a couple of seconds. She didn’t move a single bit because of the statement that Zeke just made. The very fact that the hero of Forge has brought out his ego daggers means that Zeke truly means business and, what this implies is that Sylvia now has to talk some sense into the hero. After all, she doesn’t support this idea. Not in the slightest bit.“My lord, I don’t mean to sound like I don’t trust your skill but…”“Saying those very lines is a good indicator of that same thought though.” Zeke said in reply, cutting the dark elf from her trailing tone of voice even before she could finish.“You don’t think I can face them head on?” The hero added.The question that’s imposed isn’t meant to pressure Sylvia. Nor is this meant to humiliate her. Zeke merely asked this because he wants to know the reason behind Sylvia’s lack of confidence that he would be able to win against the three dark elves who are having a battle royal. An intent that that got through to Sylv

There are a couple of problems that Zeke needs to deal with. The first is his problem with range. As an assassin who wields dual daggers, this means that he doesn’t have much in this department. He needs to get close in order to land a hit on his opponents which, is close to impossible.The two female dark elves use bows as their primary weapons and, these same bows have blades at their tips. Making it possible for the said weapons to be used at close range if Zeke does close the gap between them. If this isn’t enough, the female elves also have their daggers to work with. Weapons which, though similar to Zeke’s, would still pose more problem for the hero because of how there would be two enemies waiting for him. There’s also a possibility for Zeke to get caught in a kind of attack from the other archer while he engages one of the two. This has a great possibility of leaving him with a large enough wound that he’d be set to lose because, there’s a third opponent that hasn’t even fit

Right before Zeke’s victory, these are the events that happened within the black smoke that he released. He made his way towards Caster. Intending to take down the dark elf with one shot. But, unlike what he imagined, the said dark elf isn’t that easy to beat. Not in the slightest bit.As he went for the stab, the head of the dark elf tilted towards him. This made Zeke wary all of a sudden. Forcing him to change the point where he is to attack and, as soon as this hesitation jumped in, Caster is able to close the gap between them as well. The dark elf forced his eyes to open even in that painful black smoke.Even with just a tiny opening in his eyes, Caster is able to launch a powerful forward thrust. Going straight towards Zeke which would’ve been lethal as well. That is, if not for the fact that the accuracy of the dark elf is greatly decreased. With the eyes of this dark elf not being fully opened, he isn’t able to strike with utmost proficiency and, Zeke used this to launch his bo

There are a couple of things that Zeke confirmed from the first fight against the two dark elves. First is that, they are good as a combination. Though he can take one of the two down by himself, this feat cannot be done when there are two enemies instead. As it stands, when there are two of them, their strength also multiplies exponentially. Not just twofold but, probably even threefold. That is why Zeke had a hard time taking them down. He overestimated himself and his own capacities and he paid a hefty price for it.That being said, all of this has now passed. Zeke has learned his lesson the hard way. But now that he has, there is no way that he will lose anymore. Not by any long shot. Not in the slightest bit. Though this idea doesn’t run similarly in the heads of his opponents.With the performance that he displayed earlier, he’s sure that they are already looking down on him a little. They are now thinking that Zeke is a lot weaker than they initially thought of him to be. Tho
