Dire-run City, a popular city that every player comes by and goes, many players come to this city to tour, visit or buy and auction some items or weapons.
The Dire-run city is one of the cities where item quality is guaranteed to be very high but also very expensive since Dire-run is the city of dwarves there are no doubts that this city will bustle with many players and ranker.
But in the far corner of the city, there's this blacksmith store that looks like an abandoned shack that even a homeless person will hesitate to live in, even though they're many players and NPC in the cities almost nobody is entering or even giving it a glance.
"USELESS!"
a shout came from inside the store.
"What the hell did you do? Useless dog, I didn't even know why did I ask you to repair it."
Ask by the bearded man wearing a full set of armor.
"What? I didn't do anything about it though." the blacksmith reply.
"Did nothing? Are you serious? Look at this!"

The blacksmith looks at the information of the weapon, but the way he glances at the information is like a natural for him, then the blacksmith reply.
"I'm sorry sir I didn't mean to do this at your weapon.. intentionally." The blacksmith smirk and looks at the customer that stares dagger at him.
"Intentionally? did you do this intentionally?"
This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
"I didn't, how can you say that? And why do you keep shouting?"
"Why can't I! you ruin my weapon!"
Blacksmith then looks right at him and says.
"Then what do you want me to do? You saw what's the situation of the building, right? You also know that I get a little customer means I don't have money to compensate, right?"
"ENOUGH! You useless blacksmith, I don't care just give me back my money!"
"Sure!"
Blacksmith opens his inventory, then takes some silver coins.
[-10 Silver]
"Here, Thank you for business, Come back again!"
"F*ck you! You just ruin my back up weapon, you piece of shit! I will never go back here and I'll make sure nobody goes to come here ever again."
The bearded guy said, then puts up a middle finger and points it at the blacksmith. He then walks toward the exit until he can't be seen anymore.
the blacksmith then calmly put down his hammer and tidy up his equipment, then a disappointing, sad and different type of emotion appears in his face.
"It's your fault for being an as*hole," Allen says while looking at the front door where the bearded guy exit.
Earlier this day before the blacksmith or Allen repair the weapon the bearded guy has the guts to criticize him and his shop and also disturbs him while working on a weapon.
"That's what you get for being an as*hole, the business is also slow asf so why would I need a customer I'm just a nobody and just a beginner blacksmith on top of that."
Allen says to himself while he suddenly thought.
"Wait that guys are the 3rd one that comes to repair their item right? It's quite amazing that this broke down building still attracts players."
Allen then sighs and says.
"Huu~ this broken game ruin everything f*ckin hell."
"I play this game every day and every night, I even skip my work just to grind and tries to Level up my Blacksmith production class, if I count the times I created a weapon I probably created at least 100,000+ or even more."
Allen thought that creating many weapons that are high quality can level up his blacksmith production class, for a normal blacksmith it is possible to level up their blacksmith production class but for he spends so much time as a blacksmith and he never past his limit as a beginner blacksmith.
Since he started as a blacksmith, every weapon he creates is made by a beginner class the stats of the equipment he creates are much more refine and much stronger hat the 'Good Quant' equipment base on their stats.
But he still wants to pass that limit so he breaks every equipment he created and re-create it again until he reached what he wants but sadly that never happened to this day.
But because of Allen's determination, and effort to pass his limit, he gains an astronomical amount of insight stats and a skill.
Allen outside the game is a simple office worker, but inside the game, he is a blacksmith, not only that but his friends call him 'Production Horder' it may sound cool and all but no, they started calling him that because all he did since the game release is to just do all the production class in the game.
Allen, of course, didn't want to focus on production class but, even though he didn't want to, he needs to, because of his control when he fights is the worst than 10 years old and Allen never thought about experiencing 'bugs' in 'EDEN' he tries to contact the GM but they never reply to any players including him.
Because Allen production class never seems to level up, whatever he made, how many he makes, what quality, his blacksmith, Alchemy, Cooking, etc, never past the level of a beginner he also wants to delete this avatar and create new acc but unfortunately in the game 'EDEN' you can only create ONE avatar and ONE avatar only, you can only reset your avatar using 'REBIRTH STONE' but that alone cost at least 500 Million Dollars but unfortunately since the release of the game no one still found the 'REBIRTH STONE' or have any idea of how to get it and the price 500 Million Dollars is not the exact price many says it's higher than that and it's possible to reach at least a trillion.
But Allen still enjoys the game to the fullest he still plays and continue to achieve what he dreams of earning money through gaming while being a celebrity.
It's been 2 years here inside the game but 1 year outside the game, since 1 day outside is 2 days inside the game, and he started playing 'EDEN' since the release, but he is still one of the lowest leveled player in primary class and production class.
Allen then looks outside his shop and sees many people laughing, some trying to party with each other, going to raids and hunting.
Allen looks dejected and thought.
'What a lucky bunch, leveling up easily without a problem while me in here stuck at the very beginning.'
Allen then looks at his status.
