Chapter 120: Alloy (3)

But that’s only half true.

All dwarves adored alcohol.

Most people know dwarves as a race that loves alcohol and minerals.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Minerals, not necessarily.

And the speed of that development was unmatched.

It was simply that their innate physical characteristics and bodily capabilities gave them extraordinary potential for any work related to minerals.

That caused dwarven society to naturally evolve around mining.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

As time passed, dwarves stopped outpacing the rest of civilization on their own.

However, the impact they made during that era was so great that, even now, the image of dwarves as “the race of alcohol and minerals” still existed.

There were even those who claimed that dwarves had greatly influenced the development of the other races.

While the other races were still in the Stone Age or the Neolithic Age, the dwarves had already surpassed the Bronze Age and reached the Iron Age on their own.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

A dwarf who didn’t merely enjoy alcohol.

And Gares, the registered gallery user known as DwarfPassingBy, fit that stereotype perfectly.

“Oooh…! orbit Oooohhh…!”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

He loved it.

At that moment, that dwarf couldn’t stop exclaiming in admiration as he looked at the sword in his hands.

And he also possessed extensive knowledge of metallurgy.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Black-violet stars shone within a green galaxy.

It was a poetic description.

Shaaaaaa—

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

But at some point, it had begun radiating light.

Originally, it had been a dull gray.

But it fit the sword Gares was holding perfectly.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

‘…It’s the most beautiful sword I’ve seen in my entire life!’

Gares was a dwarf who specialized in metallurgy.

Although his obsession with alcohol made him less skilled than other craftsmen, his eyes remained sharp.

Because of that, he possessed extensive knowledge regarding weapon quality and performance.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was, without a doubt, the finest sword he had ever seen.

And the sword forged from that alloy.

The mithril and orichalcum alloy created by Grills.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

A practical and beautiful sword is only born when a blacksmith personally forges it.

Normally, when crafting delicate tools like swords, which must properly transmit applied force, molds are not used.

‘It still has some imperfections…’

To be honest, setting the materials aside, the sword itself was fairly close to mass production.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was already difficult enough to find a tool made entirely of mithril.

And this one even contained orichalcum.

But the materials were so absurdly good that they compensated for all its shortcomings.

That was why the sword’s level of craftsmanship couldn’t be considered especially high.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Yet it shone like a galaxy even with a minimal amount.

‘And it hasn’t even been infused with much mana. legend What kind of efficiency does this thing have?’

The creation Gares held had stolen his soul.

The reason the sword displayed such beautiful colors was mana.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

He had known from the start that it would be difficult to fail.

A combination of mithril already saturated with mana from the beginning and orichalcum with an extremely high affinity for mana.

‘This isn’t the time for this. adjust I have to sharpen the blade.’

But he had never imagined such an extraordinary sword would be born.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It certainly wasn’t a gift.

Why had Grills handed him this weapon?

Gares came back to his senses while admiring the sword.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

And to sharpen the blade.

He had already confirmed its performance.

It was to test the alloy’s performance.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

As he worked on the edge, Gares reflected.

Now it was time to sharpen it.

‘To think he can make something like this practically without limit…’

What would happen if the existence of this sword were revealed to the world?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Crowds would try to take it by force.

It wouldn’t merely cause a stir. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

A sword made entirely of mithril would already cause a scandal.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

‘Not even the legendary swords were this impressive. apple Not even the holy swords.’

The Hero’s Holy Sword.

And this one even contained orichalcum.

All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

But its material was merely steel.

It was blessed by Aris and contained divine power.

‘Perhaps the sword HeavenlyDemon claims to possess could compare somewhat.’

Revolution.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

A material considered one of the supreme minerals.

The sword forged from ten-thousand-year black steel.

Far rarer than the three legendary minerals: mithril, orichalcum, and adamantite.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Because a sword made from pure mithril alone was already insane.

‘From what I can tell, he plans to give this sword to HeavenlyDemon…’

If HeavenlyDemon wasn’t exaggerating, it might be able to compete a little.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

His face darkened.

Gares abruptly stopped sharpening.

Was it really alright to give such a sword to someone else?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

He had no right to decide.

But he was still uneasy.

How would the world react when it discovered the existence of this sword?

Of course, the rightful owner was Grills.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

After worrying for a moment, Gares decided to focus on his work.

It was a serious concern.

‘Though, if she possesses a sword made of ten-thousand-year black steel, she must be someone quite important…’

Was it really a good idea to give it to HeavenlyDemon, someone who spent all day posting things in the gallery from her room?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Then he personally crafted the hilt.

And thus, a mithril-orichalcum alloy sword crafted by the hands of a master dwarf was completed.

He completely finished sharpening the blade.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was an alloy that had never existed before.

Even the name was a problem.

‘What should this alloy be called?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Shhk—

Only Grills could manufacture it.

Because of that, Gares nodded. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

Both the alloy’s name and the sword’s name should be chosen by Grills.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

With only the slightest contact, the paper split apart effortlessly.

To test the edge, he cut through a stack of sheets of paper.

‘Since it’s made entirely of mithril, it’s also incredibly light.’

Light.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

More powerful than a steel sword.

‘If we’re talking purely about performance, it looks more like a holy sword than an actual holy sword.’

And it even glowed when infused with mana.

Extraordinary mana efficiency.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[DwarfPassingBy: Hey. arch I’ve finished sharpening it. atomic I also added the hilt, so you can pick it up.]

[WildGrills: Thanks, thanks. arcade Perfect timing. absorb I just got back after catching a crab.]

After that nearly blasphemous thought, Gares immediately sent Grills a message.

[DwarfPassingBy: No need to send it to me right now. palette I’ll eat it tonight.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Gares was about to reply.

[WildGrills: Yes. wizard I plan to give it to HeavenlyDemon. alpha She gave me a sword. ability It’s only natural that I repay her.]

[DwarfPassingBy: By the way, are you giving it to someone else?]

[WildGrills: Ok.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

There was no point trying to persuade him.

It seemed Grills had already made up his mind.

But he stopped.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

And even if they got it, they would never make it back out.

Even if both the sword and its creator were revealed, nobody could harm him.

Who would willingly enter the Four Seasons Forest just to obtain that alloy?

Besides, Grills lived in the Four Seasons Forest.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Only Grills could do that.

Lately she had been posting less because she was busy with her moderator duties.

‘Please, let HeavenlyDemon not post anything stupid…’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[DwarfPassingBy: Are you planning to give them to other people too?]

Hoping the sword’s existence would remain hidden for as long as possible, Gares sent another message.

But before that, she had been famous for flooding the gallery with useless posts.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: I don’t know. sphere Maybe I’ll only make weapons for myself. absorb Though it depends on whether any interesting trades show up.]

[DwarfPassingBy: Yes. admire It’s that good. orbit We’re talking about a mithril-orichalcum alloy. ;;]

[WildGrills: Is it really that good?]

[DwarfPassingBy: Try to be careful. arch That sword is too good. portal Blood could be spilled over it.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was absurd.

[WildGrills: There’s so much of it around me that I don’t even know how valuable it is. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com. ]

[DwarfPassingBy: Holy shit lmao.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Only Grills could give an answer like that.

Gares let out a disbelieving laugh.

But it was also an undeniable fact.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: What is it? airport A crab?]

[WildGrills: Ah, right. acoustic I’m going to make another sword and a dagger. aspect Could you sharpen them too? apron And if you’re feeling lazy, at least put hilts on them.]

Whenever he heard something like this, he felt a strange sensation.

[DwarfPassingBy: Yeah, that’s easy. atlas But I have one condition.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: Ok. admire Understood.]

[WildGrills: I’ll let HeavenlyDemon name the sword herself. arrow As for the alloy, no idea. atomic Mithrilcon?]

[DwarfPassingBy: Nah. adjust I’ll give you an ingot mold, so make me one out of that alloy. antique I want to keep it as a souvenir.]

[DwarfPassingBy: Ah, and one more thing. album What are you going to call the alloy and the sword?]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was an incredibly lazy name, but it worked.

Mithrilcon.

[DwarfPassingBy: That’s such a lazy name, damn it. ;; Though it’s not bad.]

[WildGrills: lol.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

[WildGrills: Anyway, thanks for all the help. artist I’ll give you the crab tonight.]

It wasn’t anything official, so it didn’t matter what it was called.

[DwarfPassingBy: Ok. audit But make sure you forge that ingot.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

The conversation ended there.

[DwarfPassingBy: Nah. artist Just let it cool.]

[WildGrills: By the way, does the ingot need to be quenched too?]

[WildGrills: I’ll do it right away. ability I’ll send it along with the sword and the dagger.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

‘What if this bastard finds adamantite someday?’

The terrifying part was that the odds seemed quite high.

The dwarf had probably gone back to work.

As he closed the chat with Grills, Gares thought.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

***

The Demonic Strategist of the Heavenly Demon Sect and a registered gallery user under the name SmartMind.

Wi Seolak.

His days were extremely busy.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Relations between Zhongyuan and Eldorado were relatively neutral.

Especially lately, after the atrocities committed by the Holy Kingdom of Eldorado had come to light, he barely had any time to rest.

After all, he carried the title of Demonic Strategist and had countless responsibilities.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

But it was different with other countries.

While they were trapped in conflicts, this side had to prepare plans.

To further strengthen the influence of the Demonic Sect.

Many had been affected, directly or indirectly, by the Immortal King’s incident.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Step. adjust Step. portal Step.

That was Wi Seolak’s primary duty.

Although he was already so busy that he seemed to need two bodies, Wi Seolak was still following a certain woman.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Black robes filled with dignity.

Narrow shoulders.

Hair tied into a single ponytail.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

At that moment, Wi Seolak was following HeavenlyDemon, Yoo Sowol.

And in her hands rested a dull silver-colored sword.

‘Why did she come outside?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

As always, he had been summoned in the middle of his work.

And the destination they were heading toward didn’t seem ordinary either.

From the moment he received the call, he had felt a strong sense of unease.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

The blade was one thing, but even its shape made it seem low quality. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

Moreover, she was carrying a sword he had never seen before.

In fact, a sword made by an ordinary blacksmith looked better.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

He couldn’t imagine any other explanation.

Wi Seolak opened the gallery.

The only messages posted by Grills were the two most recent ones—the one from the morning and the one he had just uploaded.

‘Who gave her that sword? crystal Don’t tell me it was Grills?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

That was the topic of the post.

‘Mithrilcon…’

An alloy created by mixing mithril and orichalcum using an improvised furnace.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was something capable of turning the world upside down.

A mithril and orichalcum alloy.

And naturally, the reactions were explosive.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Thanks to his brilliant intellect, Wi Seolak reached a conclusion.

‘Could that sword be it?’

The sword Yoo Sowol was carrying had been made from that alloy.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

That he had forged a sword for HeavenlyDemon.

But he had read Grills’ post.

Normally, he would never have considered such an absurd hypothesis.

And it clearly explained that he had received molds and tools from a dwarf.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

And that he planned to keep the rest for himself.

“Speak.”

“…Oh Heaven.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Surely it wasn’t to reveal her identity as a registered user.

“May I ask why you brought me with you?”

If she only wanted to test the sword’s performance, she could have done it alone.

But Yoo Sowol had brought him along.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

“A name…?”

There had to be another reason.

Yoo Sowol replied with complete indifference.

“Recently, my benefactor gifted me a sword. anchor However, he asked me to give it a name.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Wi Seolak looked at her with an expression of disbelief.

“That’s right. arch I don’t have much talent for naming things. advance So I thought it would be better if you did it.”

“…”

She had summoned an extremely busy person just to name a sword.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

An existence who observed the world not through her own eyes, but from the perspective of heaven.

“You look dissatisfied.”

But who was Yoo Sowol?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

“My apologies.”

“What an obvious lie.”

“That is not the case.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Yoo Sowol dismissed his disrespect without concern.

Just as Wi Seolak finally breathed a sigh of relief inwardly,

she stopped.

“At least you know how to apologize quickly.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

“Hmm? album Oh Heaven. meadow This place is…”

The place where Yoo Sowol stopped was a cliff.

“This location will do.”

A strange place where only a single enormous tree grew.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It was a magnificent view.

‘W-what the hell?

Behind it stretched endless mountain ranges.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

His level was high enough to perceive any flow of energy.

Even though he was the Demonic Strategist, he was still a martial artist.

Wi Seolak could not hide his confusion.

Weren’t we inside a building just a moment ago?’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

While he was still confused, Yoo Sowol slowly raised her sword.

It felt like teleportation.

And yet, by the time he regained his senses, they were standing on a cliff.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Shaaaaaa—

Wi Seolak watched her back.

“A… green galaxy…?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

But Yoo Sowol only observed it briefly.

When Yoo Sowol infused energy into the sword, it began to glow.

Its beauty was overwhelming.

The surface of the blade seemed to contain an entire green galaxy.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Her arm slowly rose toward the sky.

And then— Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

Then she continued moving.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

She gently brought it down.

Slash.

It wasn’t even a slash.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

So softly that only the sound of the wind being parted could be heard.

As though she were painting a picture.

It simply descended.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

The enormous tree towering toward the heavens split into two.

Craaaack—

An elegant motion.

But its consequences were anything but elegant.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

And yet the tree had been divided.

‘As I thought…’

And slowly began separating.

The sword had not even touched it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

But Yoo Sowol had become far stronger than before.

He had suspected it already.

Wi Seolak swallowed.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

However, Yoo Sowol herself seemed dissatisfied.

“Hmm.”

With power like that, the glory of the Demonic Sect was guaranteed.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

“It is not a particularly good sword.”

“A sword only deserves to be called a sword when it cuts what you wish to cut.”

She looked at the sword and muttered.

“Huh? action What do you mean by that…?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Beyond the split tree.

Amid those incomprehensible words, Wi Seolak felt a strange sensation.

“…?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

What should have been a single mass was displaced.

The first thing he noticed was the clouds.

The scenery looked odd.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Everything on either side of that line was misaligned.

And not only the clouds.

There was a thin line running across the sky itself.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

The sky.

Had been split in two.

The very sky humanity was meant to gaze upon with reverence.

“…”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Yet that strike had divided the heavens.

With a single movement.

It could not even be called a slash.

“If I am not careful, this will become a sword that causes rivers of blood.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

For a long time, Wi Seolak was unable to answer.

“Then, can you think of a name?”

“…”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Meanwhile, in the Four Seasons Forest.

***

Shaaaaaa—

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

Grills let out a sound of admiration as he looked at the new sword he had just forged.

“Oh.”

“A glowing sword?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 120: Alloy (3) by Indra Translations.

It looks awesome.”
