While he may not be happy with his situation, the rush he felt when swinging that sword and feeling the energy travel through him to activate “Power Strike” was incredible. Throughout the day, Cyrus continued to explore and eventually found the river that he had heard. Soon after finding the river, he stumbled upon another goblin. Similarly, he easily killed it, but his blood was pumping even without actual danger. After killing that goblin, a screen appeared.

He had killed another. Cyrus was having difficulty staying calm. He had just killed again. He convinced himself the creature was just a figment of the system, and Cyrus began drinking from the river. His day continued similarly, exploration followed by a few goblins. By the end of the day, he had reached Level 3. He was exhausted, both physically and mentally. Cyrus found his original clearing and fell asleep against a tree. The next day, he awoke with the sun and the sound of stomps. He jolted upright and looked toward the noise. It was a creature of myth; A minotaur. He observed it
Young Minotaur (LV 5)
Level 5. It was Level 5. Cyrus calmed himself and readied his sword and shield. The creature rushed and Cyrus’s body refused his orders to dodge. The Minotaure crashed into him, and he flew across the clearing and into a tree.

Cyrus groaned, it was the most pain he had ever felt, his ribs creaked as he arose. He could do this, he would survive. He rushed the Minotaur, slashed its knee, and dodged around it as it began to charge. He followed up with more slashes as Cyrus circled the Minotaur. Eventually, the creature toppled over, the cuts enough to kill it.

He did it. He sighed in relief and followed the river downstream to see what he could find. Over the next few days, Cyrus killed more goblins and two more minotaurs. Once he reached level 5, he was prompted by the system to acquire a perk. It gave 3 options.

After some rest, Cyrus entered the cave. The second he stepped in, a notification appeared
Welcome To A Tutorial Dungeon
4 Curated Topics Will Be Chosen
Each Topic Will Have A Learning Room And A Challenge Room
First Topic: Blacksmithing
Good Luck
Cyrus looked around and noticed a furnace of some kind, an anvil, and some metal. There were also some basic rules. He could only bring out crafted items, not any unused metal. It also gave basic instructions on how to forge an ingot. After a few attempts of working with the metal, Cyrus received a skill.
New General Skill Acquired:

After gaining the skill, a doorway appeared at one end of the room. It was the challenge portion of blacksmithing. After Cyrus had used up all the metal in the learning portion and gained a few levels, he stepped through the gate.

The room he found himself in was very similar to the previous room except there were a few types of metals and all the learning materials were gone. There was a box at one end of the room where he could place his item. Cyrus decided to start by observing the metals.
Iron Ingot:

The room also had a stock of handles, which was very convenient. After about 5 simple iron and bronze weapons, he leveled up his blacksmithing to level 4. That only took him about 30 minutes. Then, he made as many lead daggers as he could, but after about 10, the experience he gained had lessened. Cyrus assumed it was some sort of repetition penalty. In response to this assumption, he made a variety of weapons such as swords and spears, and armor pieces like helmets and boots. It only took 5 lead weapons to increase the level of his skill to 5. Then it only took 5 silver weapons to reach 6. Once again, that only took him about 30 minutes as he began getting comfortable with making weapons. After about another hour, he reached level 10, and a new metal appeared.
Tungsten Ingot:
UNCOMMON

Level 10 Blacksmithing Required

Cyrus then used this new metal until he had only 30 minutes left. He had reached level 15 in blacksmithing and through this crafting he had also gained another Class level, bringing him to 9. For the next 15 minutes, Cyrus experimented with using his mana as well as alloying different metals. Eventually, he learned how to access his mana and he gained a skill for it.
New General Skill Acquired:
Mana Control (Common)
The Skill to Be Able to Access and Control Mana
Based on Skill Level and Intelligence

Through this experimentation, he also found a somewhat decent tungsten and silver alloy. For the next 5 minutes, he attempted to refine his alloy while “injecting” his mana into the metal. All he got was an alloy labeled “Magically Failed”. With 10 minutes remaining, Cyrus began his final weapon. He decided to make a shield. He had leveled up his Mana Control to level 3, so he was hoping his idea would work… and it did!
Slightly Imbued Silver/Tungsten Shield:
UNCOMMON
Fighter Class Required
+10 Resilience
Defense Rating - +20
A shield crafted by Cyrus Raven made with uncommon metals
and imbued with small amounts of his magic during the crafting process
He immediately placed the shield in its spot and the door opened. It also gave him back the shield. He decided to equip the shield as it was much better than the starter shield. He also leveled his class to 10 and he got a barrage of notifications.
