"The calm madman injected a sedative into the carotid artery and passed out for a couple of seconds. When he woke up, there was a huge branch in his head that went right through."

Calm madman: Wow. It's an awkward situation. Dachshund, I need to get my head out. Wow, that's right. Op. Where should I go? Oh, that's right! Judging by the footprints, they are directed to my right. So that's where I need to go.

"The calm madman set off on his journey. He walked through the Great Green Cloud Forest, encountering various monsters and various plants."

Calm madman: * Wow, that's what they call orcs. And they are huge. Fortunately, I am far from them. Otherwise, killing them is not for me right now... Oh, and this, as I understand it, is a huge apple tree with a mana base. It seems, judging by my universe, they grow due to the collected mana from the earth. And since mana is toxic to the tree, it removes mana into the fruits. This gives the apples a medium sour and medium sweet taste, and they also replenish about 58 mana units, depending on the design and how much they ate from the apple. The taste itself exalts the perfect balance of acid and sweetness. I would eat them and eat them, however, if I eat them, there will come a time when my mana will also be outside the cocoon. This will cause difficulties, so it's better that I refrain from this delicacy.*

---The end of the Great Forest Green Cloud---

"The calm madman has reached the end of the forest. His journey of 28.3 kilometers in time was 7 hours and 5 minutes. He began to examine the surroundings for signs of living beings."

The calm madman: * So. Except for the mountains and clouds that cover the mountain. I don't see anything or anyone on them. Then, we need to send it on.*

"The calm madman started walking towards the mountains. According to the time, his journey was 12 hours of walking."

Calm madman: * I'm at the bottom, but I don't see a single living being. What is the reason?*

"A calm madman approached the mountain and began to climb. He didn't use teleportation for the 1st reason. He was afraid to snap when it was not the right time, since he had only 1 dose of sedative left. Therefore, it is necessary to save the dose and use teleportation to a minimum, so as not to gain a percentage coefficient."

A calm madman: Just a protruding pebble. Two protruding pebbles. Just a protruding pebble. Two protruding pebbles. Once stuck... eh? What is it? What is this little hole? Okay, I wasn't. I'm coming in!

"A calm madman entered a small cave and began to slide down."

The calm madman: * I hope he leads me to the table! And! And! tsy. I hate rocks sticking out on the descent.*

"A calm madman was walking down a circular, stone descent."

--- It's been about 23 minutes---

"The calm madman has been coming down all this time."

Calm madman: * What is it? So, the material resembles dark oak. Damn, I can't see anything. It's so dark here. Should I knock? Since it looks like a wooden door, it's worth knocking."

"A calm madman knocked on the wooden door. He knocked again. Finally, he got an answer. The door began to open. And immediately an old, slightly drunken, low voice sounded."

???: Uh. Well, I told you. When you come, you DON'T NEED to knock. I would have opened it with the keys. No, you're making the teacher get up. What a rotten kid. Eh? Who are you? Are you a monster? No, you don't look like a monster.

Calm madman: Hello. True, I'm not a monster, but I'm not human either. I would not like to tell you everything again. So if you want to hear the whole conversation, then I'd like to talk to the elder.

???: Clearly. If you want to meet with an elder, then for what purpose?

Calm madman: Hmm. Maybe we'll start by getting to know each other. I don't have a name, but I was given the nickname 'Calm Madman' from birth. What's your name? And why aren't you scared of the sight of me?

???: Then I greet you, Calm madman. My name is Goutus. There is one very simple answer to your question. I've been almost blind since birth.

Calm Madman: Then how did you become a blacksmith? If I'm not mistaken, then you are a blacksmith and you also have an apprentice.

Goatus: That's right. I'm a blacksmith. A master of his craft in this part of the capital. I became a master, even with a flaw in my health. This has served to receive many praises, humiliations, surprises, and admiration. I did not study with my teacher like an ordinary blacksmith. I am passing on this teaching technique to the current student. He's certainly not disabled like me, but my training will make his skills even higher than mine. The training itself takes place due to the sense of mana of objects. I know that this is a gift given only to a few. But I was able to train my almost blind gaze on the way mana moves. I was able to find huge accumulations of mana in the villagers around me, and I was also able to see these mana movements in other objects when forging. The mana of each of the capitals, of any objects is different from each other. Some are not by much, some, on the contrary, strongly. Sense of smell, sound, sensitivity. Also using these body senses, I was able to achieve such a level of skill and fame.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

Calm madman: I see. Then you come with me to the elder. Your job is just to take me to him. You'll find out more when you talk to him.

Goutus: Good. Let's go.

"Goutus stood up, took a cane and called the Calm Madman with a gesture. Then they left the house, closed the door and went."

Calm madman: I see. This is what the Dwarf Kingdom looks like. His huge brick houses are simply inspiring. Unlike the two cities in which I have been here, the brick structure gives confidence in the long durability and life of the house. And in those two cities, the houses are made of wood. This leads to frequent fires, mold (which they don't know about yet), less durability, and less life at home. They age faster.

Goutus: Yes. That's exactly how it is. Okay, let's go. We don't have long left.

"Goutus and the Calm Madman walked to the elder's house for about 14 minutes."

Goutus: This is the elder's house.

Calm madman: I see.

"At the same moment, the first impression of the elder's house ran through the Calm Madman's head."

Calm Madman: *The house looks very old, but due to the good level of care for this area, the house is very well decorated and restored in some places. It can be concluded that an elderly elder lives here, who is very hardworking. Due to the different styles of restoration, it can be concluded that either the owner of the house experimented a lot, or he was helped by different masters of his craft.* So this is the elder's house... Well, then. Let's knock.

"Goutus knocked on the door of an old, brick building."

???: Aa? Uh. Ahem. Ah. Kha. Oh, who's there?

Goatus: This is Goatus. I have brought a stranger. He wants to talk to you.

???: Kha-kha. Come in...

"Goutus opened the door. Both went inside."

???: Oh my God. What's the terrible look? Not, of course, your presentable clothes improve everything a little. But still. This is too much. What happened to you? Kha. Although it's not up to that now. Greetings to you. My name is Bermogrum. I am the elder of this village.

Calm madman: I wish you good health and greetings. I don't have a name, but I was given the nickname 'Calm Madman' from birth. That's all for now. Let's sit down at the table and talk, okay?

Bermogrum: Ha-ha-good.

"All three of them sat down at the table in the living room of the elder's old house."

Calm madman: * Although the house is old, but the furniture in the house is excellent, such quality. So these are the results of the Dwarves' creations.* Well. First of all, I'll ask. Would any of the dwarves be able to create a very important item?

Bermogrum: Of course we can, but it all depends on the requirements of the subject.

Calm madman: In that case, I will answer your request. This subject is not necessary for me, but for my brother. He has divine mana. That's not all. He regenerates and restores it with great speed. That's not all either. His cocoon has no limitations. Therefore, his huge amount of divine mana, which is constantly increasing, is released outside. According to my approximate calculations, he will be able to fill the whole earth with his mana in a few minutes. The death of all living things is inevitable if he leaves the cave.

Bermogrum: The situation is very sad. As I understand it, he needs something that will seal or absorb all this mana. Right?

Calm madman: That's right.

Bermogrum: Goutus would have been able to create such an item. Kha-kha. But! Uh. It will not absorb or seal all the mana. The maximum number we have approached is 31559. As I understand it, this will not be enough.

Calm madman: I see. In that case. After almost 10 years, can I come here again, for the sake of some masters?

Bermogrum: Good. You can do it. But I will have the conditions. Kha. Stipulate under those circumstances.

Calm madman: Sorry for the rudeness, but it's just an interest. Will you live to see this moment?

Bermogrum: Of course I will live. I'm not that old yet. See? Gray hair covered only half of her hair.

Calm madman: Okay, I get you. Then I'm going to my brother. Do you have a map?

Bermogrum: Of course, I'll bring it now.

"The Bermogrum got up and went to another room next door. Apparently, this is his room. After a short while, he returned, holding a map in his hands."

Bermogrum: And so. Where is your brother now?

Calm madman: Do you see the city of Greenline? Slightly to the left and down from it. Here are the forests, so a little to the right and higher. Approximately in this area. So, where are we?

Bermogrum: Here are our mountains and the Great Green Cloud Forest. We are here, in the middle of the mountains. I will take you to the exit and you will find yourself at the exit to the right of the mountains.

Calm madman: Good. Then we move to the exit. I don't need a card.

Bermogrum: All right, let's go. Goutus, are you waiting for me here

"Goutus nodded his head humbly, Bermogrum and the Calm Madman left the elder's house and headed for the exit. Along the way, they saw a huge number of houses, blacksmiths, jewelry stores and many other crafts, for example pottery. All the idle residents of the capital who were walking home, drinking something from mugs, looked attentively at the elder and the creature walking next to him."

--- 31 minutes later---

Bermogrum: Here's the way out. Have a good trip.

Calm madman: Okay, thank you.

"The calm madman left the capital in grief and walked to his brother."

Calm madman: * Apparently, we will have to go not to the 3rd brother, but to the 6th. So that he can create an item that will absorb the mana of the Faceless One."

--- At this time, the capital of the Dwarf Kingdom---

???: Elder Bermogrum! Who was it?

???: Elder!

Bermogrum: This is my new friend, so to speak. And so to speak, our past and future guest. Ask Goutus for details.

???: Good.

???: Well, okay.

"All the residents gathered at Goutas's house and waited for his story. Soon, he arrived at the house and told who this guest was and why he was here. Everyone was waiting for the next arrival of the Calm Madman."

--- At this time---

Calm Madman: * Yes, I didn't expect much from ordinary dwarves. But if you don't compare their help for my brother, then they are very good. To create such artifacts, jewelry, armor, weapons, furniture, houses, pottery, as well as to skillfully use materials mined in the mountains. And at the same time, not 1-n does not go to waste. After all, they are good craftsmen. What I think about the future, I need about the present. So, it seems that the brother is in this direction...*
