Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2)

Under normal circumstances, due to technological limitations, only the highest-ranking officials would have learned about the news.

Even if the announcement had been made publicly, information traveled so slowly that people busy with their daily lives would hardly have heard about it.

The impact of Alvenheim’s unveiling of the artificial Guardian spread throughout the entire world.

However, thanks to the existence of the Gallery, anyone, regardless of status, was able to find out exactly what Alvenheim had unveiled.

“We can’t do anything. aluminum Just pray we don’t get drafted.”

“Hah… My father was drafted back in his day. canvas Am I going to end up the same way now?”

“So what do we do now?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Although the world appeared peaceful on the surface, conflicts existed everywhere.

As a result, people couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

From the Messiah Empire and the Kingdom of Iris to Eldorado, where the Immortal King incident had occurred.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

As anxiety spread among the population, a new post appeared in the Gallery.

If even humans, with their short lifespans, felt that war was closer than peace.

How could the other races not feel the same?

And besides those, there were many other places that were unstable both internally and externally.

He says that if Alvenheim starts a war, he’ll flood Mountain with mithril + orichalcon alloy. lol

Title) Grills’s Statement

(Photo of Grills’s statement posted in the Gallery)

ㄴMountain must feel pretty well backed up. lol

ㄴAnd his entire cave is full of orichalcon. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

ㄴJust 100 grams of mithril would cause an uproar. alpha That guy’s talking about kilograms. lol

ㄴNo, dude. ability Grills has infinite mithril.

ㄴHahaha. admire If wars could be stopped with something like that, they never would’ve started. lol

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Minerals so valuable that mere rumors about them were enough to attract the attention of entire nations.

ㄴSince he’s in the Forest of Four Seasons, they can’t do anything to him either. lol

What were mithril and orichalcon?

It was a statement in which he promised to immediately support whichever country was attacked if Alvenheim started a war.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

And on top of that.

Its value was simply incalculable.

He was talking about an alloy of the two.

If even a single ingot appeared on the market.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

After all.

It was a threat—or perhaps a way of atoning for his guilt—that only Grills could make because he knew the true value of that material.

The artificial Guardian had also been born, at least in part, thanks to his help.

It would spark a bloody competition.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

But things took a completely unexpected turn.

His statement seemed likely to reduce the tension surrounding a possible war.

Title) Isn’t He Basically an Instigator?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

If I were him, I’d be praying the elves started the war. lol

But we’re talking about mithril and orichalcon!

If it were gold or silver, maybe.

That Grills guy seems to think they’re worth the same as gold and silver. lol

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴGuys… do you think Grills is bald?

ㄴWar instigator.

ㄴThe world’s greatest troublemaker.

ㄴGod of War.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴBecause whenever someone says “God of War,” all I can picture is a bald guy.

Title) This Grills Guy…

ㄴHuh? alert What’s that got to do with anything?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

But every now and then, he does something monumentally stupid.

And every time he does, the scale is completely absurd. lol

He survives because he seems smart.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴActually, the problem is that he exists.

ㄴNo. wizard The real problem was proving he was in the Forest of Four Seasons.

ㄴDid it all start when he posted the Immortal King’s familiar records?

ㄴHahaha. shadow All we can do is watch the show.

ㄴExactly. avalanche His mere existence causes way too many problems. lol

ㄴBut there’s nothing we can do about it, right?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Ironically.

And to be fair.

A war could break out precisely because of Mithrilcon.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

There were still many things he didn’t know.

No matter how much he had learned about the common sense of that world.

He didn’t truly understand the value of mithril and orichalcon.

That was a little unfair to Grills.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

He only knew that if they started circulating freely, it would be dangerous.

It was an idea he never would have imagined.

Deliberately starting a war just to obtain minerals?

Besides.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

And that was why the situation had developed the way it had.

That was far removed from the common sense he knew.

Grills had survived thanks to the goodwill of the people in the Gallery.

Title) No. advance This Doesn’t Make Sense.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴWildGrills) Ah.

WildGrills

ㄴThen do you think it’s normal for a single bomb to wipe an entire city off the map?

Are they really going to start a war just to get that? matrix Are they completely insane?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Grills finally understood the situation.

The Mithrilcon alloy didn’t possess the destructive power of a nuclear bomb.

But it did possess comparable value.

Thanks to a comparison made by a certain wise man.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

It was only natural that everyone would be stunned.

He himself had said he would continue supplying it in the future.

And on top of that.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

People say a master doesn’t depend on his tools, but mithril is the exception.

If orichalcon has great affinity with mana, mithril outright amplifies mana.

Title) So You Understand Just How Broken Mithril Is

Even with aura, the difference is absurd.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon) Could you explain it using Central Continent terms?

To exaggerate a little, it’d be like pitting a knight who has just awakened his aura against another who has already mastered Aura Blade.

It’s in a league of its own.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴHeavenlyDemon) Then if an entire sword were made of mithril, it would be even more extraordinary.

ㄴIt’d be like a third-rate martial artist fighting on equal footing with a master of the Supreme Realm.

ㄴA sword like that doesn’t exist. lol

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

ㄴI don’t know. echo Everyone’s talking like it’s obvious.

ㄴWait… didn’t Grills give Ludwig a sword the other day?

ㄴNow that I think about it, he never actually showed it, did he?

ㄴWas that a Mithrilcon sword?

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Not only because the performance of a Mithrilcon sword was completely absurd.

However, there was one ambiguous detail.

But also because it was far too eye-catching.

Grills had never explicitly revealed that sword. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

It was impossible for it to go unnoticed.

A green galaxy appeared across the blade.

Whenever mana was infused into it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

When he provided Ludwig with another Mithrilcon sword to help him survive.

There had only been one exception.

“Could it be the sword he gave Master?”

That was why, after giving HeavenlyDemon a Mithrilcon sword, he never spoke publicly about it.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Asella, who was carefully browsing the Gallery, looked at her curiously.

“What do you mean?”

Reis, one of Hero Asella’s main allies and assistants, muttered quietly.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“No. timber You never told me about it.”

“Ah… you mean the sword that helped Master Ludwig survive?”

“Yes. crystal Didn’t I tell you about that sword?”

“That Mithrilcon Grills is talking about… I think it might be the sword he gave Master.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Reis nodded. arcade She had been so busy lately that she had forgotten.

“From the way you describe it, it sounds even holier than a Holy Sword.”

Even so, it was impossible to forget once you had seen it, so she was able to describe it in considerable detail.

“How should I put it…? arena It was a sword that contained a green galaxy. altitude At first, I even thought Master’s level had increased.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“Then that isn’t a Holy Sword. altitude It’s a Demonic Sword.”

People say a master doesn’t depend on his tools.

In reality, that statement is true to a certain extent.

“Mm… maybe. sphere And its effects were incredible as well. galaxy It seemed as though the sword was guiding Master, not the other way around.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

But if it’s above them.

If the tool is at the user’s level or below it, there’s no problem.

It would be more accurate to say that anything in excess is harmful.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“A Demonic Sword? silence Maybe. arcade But imagine there weren’t just one, but dozens of them circulating throughout the world…”

It will end up harming them.

“That would be a huge problem.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“And on top of that, that man says he can distribute the materials used to forge those Demonic Swords. anchor Don’t you think that could be truly dangerous?”

Even though she said it half-jokingly.

“Mm…”

It wasn’t something that could be taken lightly.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Even inside the Forest of Four Seasons, where mana couldn’t be used, they had been tremendously helpful.

And that was only what was already known.

Reis had seen the effects of those “materials” Grills mentioned with her own eyes.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

‘Now that I think about it, they said mithril even grew naturally.’

The mithril that grew by itself behind the cave.

They had even used it to make a new prosthetic for Ludwig.

It was possible they hid even more extraordinary effects.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

It contained so much mana that it was dangerous to handle.

And that wasn’t all.

Even DwarfPassingBy had refused to process it.

Unless a special furnace was used, it was impossible to work with.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

‘But that was because they were processing pure mithril. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com. ’

Even calling something a “mithril sword” was an exaggeration.

In this world, there were no swords made entirely of mithril.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Its performance was absurdly high.

“For now, all we can do is watch. beacon The Holy Kingdom doesn’t even have the capacity to wage a war at the moment.”

Normally, adding just a small amount of mithril was enough for it to earn that name.

And even then.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

At the moment, the Holy Kingdom was far too busy with its reforms to even think about war.

“Only the Goddess knows.”

“Right? armor But do you really think there’s going to be a war?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

A war didn’t begin overnight.

‘For now, all we can do is observe.’

At the very least, they had the minimum defenses in place.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

They might feel threatened and launch a preemptive strike.

What was truly concerning was Mountain’s reaction.

And if Alvenheim had publicly unveiled the artificial Guardian, it was unlikely they intended to act immediately.

After everything the elves had done so far, no one would find such a decision strange.

They would have a perfectly valid reason.

And besides.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Fortunately, Reis was still focused on the Gallery and didn’t notice her reaction.

“What if the moderator decides this has gone too far and ends up banning him?”

Hearing Reis’s comment, Asella flinched and asked quietly.

“…Ban him?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

The moderator is standing right next to you.

“That’s our problem, not the moderator’s.”

“B-but then we wouldn’t be able to find Master either.”

“Yeah. crystal Honestly, it’d be unfair to him, but I think he’s starting to become dangerous. beacon After all, even the artificial Guardian was invented thanks to the core he provided.”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

If it had been anyone else.

Because she was the moderator.

At the same time, she felt relieved. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

Asella barely managed to swallow those words.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

From Grills’s perspective, it would have been terribly unfair.

Just as Reis had said, they probably would have considered Grills too dangerous and banned him already.

But they were talking about the possibility of war.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

If provoking conflicts between countries was already grounds for a ban.

How much more so would provoking an actual war be?

Of course, she would never do it.

‘…Honestly, that would be a valid reason to ban him.’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Even though no one was talking about banning him yet.

She couldn’t betray someone who had helped them so much.

Public opinion within the Gallery might gradually become more hostile.

But if things continued like this.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

The private conversation between HeavenlyDemon and Grills.

It was only a matter of time before someone brought it up.

While checking her messages, she suddenly remembered something.

‘I’d better ask Mr. riddle Grills to be a little more careful. arcade Ah now that I think about it…’

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Some time ago, she had skimmed through one of their conversations.

In it, Grills gave HeavenlyDemon a sword.

At the time, she hadn’t thought much of it.

As the moderator, she could see all private messages.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

‘I should ask HeavenlyDemon just how powerful it is.’

It was obvious that sword had also been made of Mithrilcon.

But considering everything that had happened.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

So Asella sent a message to HeavenlyDemon, Yoo Sowol.

First, she needed to confirm the material’s effects.

She decided to postpone talking to Grills.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

[HeavenlyDemon: It is. ability Why do you ask?]

[HeroDontThrowAway: I wanted to ask about the sword Grills gave you the other day. antique Is it made of Mithrilcon?]

[HeroDontThrowAway: Hello, Vice Moderator! action Are you busy?]

[HeavenlyDemon: I am always here. airport What is it?]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

Split the heavens.

[HeroDontThrowAway: I was curious about its effects!]

A very HeavenlyDemon-like expression.

[HeavenlyDemon: A single light slash was enough to split the heavens.]

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

It didn’t sound exaggerated at all.

And yet.

Especially considering the power Reis had mentioned.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

She had figured it out thanks to the private conversations between Grills and her.

‘Besides, there’s a very high chance this person really is the actual Heavenly Demon.’

In them, HeavenlyDemon said it didn’t matter who she really was.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

She even joked that if anyone wanted to worship her like everyone else did, they could come to the Forest of Four Seasons.

That it was better to treat her the same as always.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

But for some reason. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

It filled her with a strange sense of jealousy.

It was a warm and pleasant conversation to read.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

After thanking HeavenlyDemon for the information, she went back to browsing the Gallery.

‘…Huh? armor What am I thinking…?’

Asella shook her head several times to drive away those irreverent thoughts.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“Look at the post that guy just made!”

“Hey, hey, Asella!”

“Yes?”

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

It was undoubtedly another post by Grills.

Reis hurriedly called out to Asella.

Asella immediately understood who she meant.

Asella was left speechless.

Because no one would want to think.

But it was a form of chaos that made perfect use of human psychology.

Translation of Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 262: A Craftsman Depends on His Tools (2) by Indra Translations.

“We’re not letting that bastard get any Mithrilcon!”

‘…What if I banned him for just one day?’

The war would end up being avoided.

And precisely because of that.
