XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWhat kind of place is this?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A zone made of leather.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Iโd had my doubts, but I never expected this.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Still, it wasnโt bad.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I thought a leather room would feel like being inside a monsterโs bodyโgross.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
But it was surprisingly clean.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โLumberjack 1, head back and get to work.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โUnderstood.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
After sending Lumberjack 1 off, I pulled scissors from my inventory to cut the leather.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Or tried to.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โDo I need different gear here too?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The leather walls had no space for the scissorsโ blades.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I could chip away bit by bit, but it felt awkward.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Examining the leather, I figured out what gear was needed.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Using Production Skill.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Please select the shape of the item to craft.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โKnife.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Please specify the details of the knifeโs shape.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Leatherworking knives are typically small and sharp.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Precision is key for cutting and trimming leather.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
But that didnโt suit my situation.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I needed something closer to a butchering knife.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Recalling a boning knife Iโd seen, I shaped it.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Please choose the material for the knife.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I used moderately tough ore.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Crafting begins.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I swung my hammer.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Clang!
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Even for a new weapon type, it was easy.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Just a slight variation on the daggers I usually made.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Smashing the glowing points, the item finished quickly.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Crafting is complete.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[โSkinning Knifeโ has been obtained.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A thick, sharp knife.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Not combat-oriented, but it looked threatening enough.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
SS-grade, with abilities similar to the pickaxe, scissors, and axe Iโd made.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As soon as it was done, I sliced the wall.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Scrapeโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The leather wall cut smoothly.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
It was a bit tough depending on the direction, but manageable.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
With some wrist strength, I peeled layers, soon gathering leather materials.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Spiked Leather]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Slippery Leather]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Varieties not found at auctions.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Now, I could source ore, fiber, wood, and leather myself.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
No need to visit the auction for most materials.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
But crafting wasnโt done.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
After checking the knifeโs performance, I started on new gear.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Crafting is complete.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[โHunterโs Work Clothes Topโ has been obtained.]

[โHunterโs Work Clothes Bottomโ has been obtained.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`

[Hunterโs Work Clothes Top is imbued with Blacksmithโs Soul.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Hunterโs Work Clothes Bottom is imbued with Blacksmithโs Soul.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Hitting Level 30 from the boss fight gave me spare Blacksmithโs Soul uses.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Blacksmithโs Soul animates the body.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
My new assistant, gripping the skinning knife, stood.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Its name, naturallyโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Please name the Blacksmithโs Soul.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โSkinner 1.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[The Blacksmithโs Soul is named Skinner 1.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Skinner 1.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Considering future assistants and Mine needs, this was best.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โIntroductions after the Mineโs time limit. Start working now, got it?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โUnderstood.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Skinner 1 began immediately.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Was it the hunterโs work clothes making it sturdier?
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Unlike other assistants digging into walls, it went straight for a leather golem.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Watching briefly, I saw a leather golem being sliced apart.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWith 16 hours now, material supply will be overflowing.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`

Auto-gathering.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Couldnโt get better.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Glancing at Skinner 1 diligently hunting, the Mineโs time limit ended.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
[Mineโs time limit has expired.]
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
My body returned to my studio apartment.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Some time later.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWhoa, looks cool.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I was reviewing the Vulcanus Guild building Nam Bora purchased.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Not in person, of course.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Just through documents she sent.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โThis is really mine?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A sleek 15-story building.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Originally exorbitant, but cheap due to Red Wyvern damage from the Gate Break.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Conveniently close to my place.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Until recently, I was scraping by in this room.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Now, owning a building outright, no loansโit felt unreal.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Even browsing photos and videos, it didnโt sink in.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โIt already looks legit.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Barely purchased, yet it exuded Vulcanus Guild vibes.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The massive Vulcanus emblem I etch on items was carved boldly, the guild name shining clearly.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The interior wasnโt complete but had most guild necessities.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Still unable to believe it was mine, I kept scrolling through photos and videos.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Nam Bora called.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โYes, Iโm here.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I knew why she called.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The guildโs opening ceremony.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The official paperwork was done earlier, but today was the formal event with all members in the new building.
- Are you sure? Youโve been so secretive. Even I think showing up publicly is too risky.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โItโs fine. Iโve got a plan.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The opening ceremony.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
I hadnโt planned to attend.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Iโd asked Nam Bora to handle it as my proxy, but I changed my mind.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Defeating the Corrupted Black Tree and hitting Level 30 upgraded my Blacksmithโs Soul.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
With this, I could attend without revealing my identity.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โShall we go?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWhat a grand opening.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โNo kidding. Even major guilds, except Royal, donโt throw ceremonies this big.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Vulcanus Guild was packed.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Reporters arrived first.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As they set up outside the towering building, invited guests appeared one by one.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โMir Guild!โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โTheyโre tied to Vulcanus, huh? The guild master himself showed up.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Mir Guildโs Lee Ga-eul.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Not just the master, but elite members too.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Lee Ga-eul, rarely seen outside Gate raids, made this appearance rare.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
After Mir Guildโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The next guest arrived.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โThank you all for your hard work.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โCheon Seung-heon! Are you here as yourself or Changcheon Guildโs master?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โBoth. Iโm personally grateful, and Changcheon Guild maintains close ties with Vulcanus Guild.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Changcheonโs Cheon Seung-heon.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The โclose tiesโ claim was exaggerated, but no one questioned it.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The quiver on his back was my work, after all.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Others followed.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โBerserker!โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โDonโt make eye contact. He smashed a camera last time for that.โ

โLook, Sword Saint!โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โSword Saintโs here too?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โDidnโt you hear? Vulcanus repaired Sword Saintโs weapon.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โTechnically, the sheath.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Berserker, Park Kang-jeol.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Sword Saint, Han Yu-ra.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Han Yu-ra arrived with a high-ranking Hunter Association official.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Others with even slight ties to Vulcanus or hoping to curry favor showed up.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โHas a guild opening ever drawn this crowd?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โItโs not just numbersโevery oneโs a big shot. Sword Saint, Heavenly Bow, Berserker, Blue Dragonโฆ even Shadow Kingโs here.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โShadow King too? Thatโs the top 5 rankers. Whyโs he here?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โRumor is heโs been sending Vulcanus requests but got no response. Probably here to push one in person.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The underground auditorium, prepared for today, was filled.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As every seat was taken, people looked at the empty stage, wonderingโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWill Vulcanus show?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โNo way. Zero personal infoโs been revealed. Why now?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โHeard the guild was set up entirely by a proxy.โ

โLook, someoneโs coming.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As the clock hit the start timeโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Someone walked onto the stage.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Some hoped it was Vulcanus, but their faces fell.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
It was Nam Bora, Vulcanusโ proxy.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โIโm Nam Bora, Vulcanus-nimโs representative. Thank you, esteemed guests, for attending. Letโs begin the opening ceremony.โ

The ceremony proceeded smoothly.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The guildโs purpose, future direction.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Some were curious it wasnโt just a blacksmith guild, but most werenโt.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โNow, introducing Vulcanus Guildโs members.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โGuild members? Thisโll be good.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โGood? Whoโd join a blacksmithโs guild?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โThe benefits are solid. Heard newbies get SS-grade shared gear right away.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โStill, thereโs a limit. Maybe a few A-grade, S-grade team leaders at best.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As people whisperedโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Guild members appeared, clad in SS-grade gear bearing Vulcanusโ emblem.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Not just armorโpants, boots, gloves.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
All S or SS-grade.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`

All Vulcanus Guild team leaders were S-grade.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
And it didnโt stop there.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As introductions continued, even regular members included S-grades.

The lowest were A-grade.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A guild with no one below A-grade.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Rivaling, no, surpassing major guilds in Awakened quality.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โBut their weapons?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The odd part was their weapons.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
They were unusual.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Claws were tame by comparison.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Giant scissors, shovels, knives, harps.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Most looked questionable as weapons.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Yet, all were SS-grade, which was even stranger.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As introductions endedโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
People thought it was over, starting to rise.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โFinally, a greeting from Vulcanus-nim.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โWhat?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โVulcanus?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โNo way. Probably the proxy speaking for him.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โYeah, right.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Despite thinking that, no one left.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A glimmer of hope kept them glued to the stage.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Thenโ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Step.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
From behind the stage.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
As curtains parted, someone walked between aligned guild members.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โNo way?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Black armor bearing Vulcanusโ emblem.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A red volcano pattern.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Far grander than the shared gear, it drew gasps.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
The ceremonial sword at their waist, etched with elegant patterns, evoked a dark knight.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โIs that really Vulcanus?โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A cold glint shone from the helmetโs visor.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
Passing Nam Bora, Vulcanus stepped to the microphone.
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
โI am Vulcanus.โ
XyZaBc1234567890!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?/~`
A chilling voice echoed through the auditorium.
