Destroying My Own Novel

“We are leaving, boss,” Gunnar said as he peek his head inside Mykel’s office.

“You guys are leaving already? I did say it’s tomorrow, right?” Mykel said as he stood up.

“Yeah, but we want to hang out in the tavern tonight and enjoy ourselves before we go inside the tower. We kind of miss hanging out together and it’s a shame that the boss can’t join us,” Gunnar said as he stood in front of the door.

Mykel smiled and shook his head. “You guys can enjoy yourself without me, I’m just going to be an eye sore to some of you,” he replied as he patted Gunnar’s shoulder.

“An eye sore?! Who’s acting like that?! I will teach them a lesson!” Gunnar yelled and Mykel had to lean his head back because Gunnar was being too loud.

“You don’t have to worry, just go already,” Mykel said as he turned around and went back to his desk.

“Oh, boss, we have brought you the materials you wanted for making a weapon. We already gave them to the blacksmith in his workshop,” Gunnar said as he pointed his finger down.

“I see, thank you, and good luck in there,” Mykel replied with a gentle smile.

Gunnar gave Mykel a thumbs up and then left the room.

“It’s time to make my own weapons,” Mykel talked to himself as he stretched his neck and massaged his shoulder.

Mykel tried to use the dagger he requested from the blacksmith, but it didn’t feel right and it melted immediately when he used Fire magic around it. He wanted a weapon that could withstand Hellfire and he got an idea and maybe it would work.

“Welcome! What can I do for you today? We have all variants of weapons and armor!” An old man said without even looking at the person who entered his shop while playing with his phone.

“Where are the materials that Gunnar sent you, Gallant?” Mykel asked as he walked into the backroom.

“Eh?! Boss?! Fo-follow me!” Gallant answered as he tried to stand up.

Gallant walked past Mykel while Mykel looked at his own skill tab.

[Activate [Duplicate]?]

[Yes.] [No.]

Mykel tapped on the [Yes] button.

[Please select a target]

[Gallant Kuldr]

[Which skill do you want to duplicate?]

[Smith-Master]

[Smith-Master] skill is successfully duplicated]

Mykel opened the command system and looked at his own status screen. He was a bit surprised because he didn’t know there was a higher rank than Apex. He remembered that he had [Semideus] skill and it unlocked the highest rank that the system itself didn’t allow him to get beforehand.

[ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO REPLACE [SMITH-MASTER(Lv.2)] WITH [SMITH-GOD]?]

[YES.] [NO.]

Mykel tapped on the [Yes] button.

[Smith-God (Passive): Allow the User to create and recreate a weapon and armor that is equal to the Godly weapon and armor in the mythology]

Mykel looked at his [Body Enhancement] skill and it could also be upgraded.

[ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO REPLACE [BODY ENHANCEMENT (Lv.10)] WITH [GODLY PHYSICAL (Lv.10)]?]

[YES.] [NO.]

Mykel tapped on the [Yes] button while he chuckled and that was enough to scare Gallant who walked in front of him. It was a bit of shame that he noticed it now because he could easily beat Zherthlsh if he knew that he could upgrade his skills to God’s rank.

“What do you want me to make, boss?” Gallant asked as he showed the materials on the table in front of him.

“I want to make a lot of throwing arrow knives,” Mykel answered as he looked and grabbed one of the materials. “Just show me how it’s done then I will do the rest on my own,” he continued as he looked at Gallant.

“Why not let me do it, boss? I can do it on my own,” Gallant asked as he prepared the furnace.

“I want to do it myself,” Mykel said as he looked at Gallant.

Gallant shrugged his mouth and nodded with understanding while he grabbed a few blueprints of throwing knives. “So which one do you want, boss? There are different types of throwing knives and these ones are the throwing arrow knives that you want,” he asked as he spread all the blueprints open.

“This one, but can you make the handle pointy as well? I need both sides to be able to cut,” Mykel answered as he pointed at the blueprint in front of him.

“That’s easy but it will be hard to use if there’s no spot for your fingers to hold it,” Gallant said. “But if that’s what the boss wants, I will make it for you,” he continued as he grabbed a piece of paper and drew the weapon based on Mykel’s request.

After hours of observing Gallant, Mykel decided to do it with Gallant’s guidance. He grabbed a hammer and when Gallant put down the glowing red steel on the anvil. Mykel hammered the glowing red steel on the anvil, it was enough to shake the whole workshop because of the shockwave.

“What the hell was that?!” Gallant asked as he looked

“I think I used too much power,” Mykel said as he looked at the head of the hammer cracked because of his newly attained skills.

“What?! No! You will ruin the steel!” Gallant said as he walked back and looked at the steel but he was shocked when it was perfectly hammered. “This is unbelievable!” he yelled as he stared at the steel.

Gallant immediately cooled down the steel and then he looked at Mykel. “How did you do that, boss?!”

“I’m not sure, I’m just using the strength that I believe it would be a perfect amount to hammer that steel,” Mykel answered as he looked at his hand and he believed it should be because of the [Smith-God] skill he had that guided him unconsciously.

“Amazing! You’re talented, boss!” Gallant said as he chuckled with disbelief.

“I know that already, now, let’s make another one while we wait. I need at least six of them,” Mykel said as he walked back to the table.

After spending a whole day in the workshop, Mykel finally got himself six throwing arrow knives. Everything was black and he could see his own reflection on them.

Mykel grabbed one while Gallant was staring at the masterpiece, he tried to cut the anvil and it cut like butter. Mykel was a bit surprised with his own creation while Gallat was dumbfounded while he grabbed his own hair with disbelief.

“Boss, you just made the most powerful weapon that I have ever seen in my life! How could you make such a weapon with those kinds of materials?!” Gallant asked as he stared at the knife.

Mykel ignored him and decided to use [Telekinesis] on all of them. Gallant was shocked when he saw all of the knives floating in the air with his back on the ground. Mykel moved them around and it was hard for him to test it out in a small space and not to mention how dangerous they could be with Gallant around him.

“Thank you for letting me use your workshop, Gallant. I will be leaving now and test these somewhere else,” Mykel said as he left the workshop with the knives following him from behind.

Mykel went to the forest far from the city, he went deeper and far enough to be undetected by anyone.

Mykel unbuttoned his blazer and he wore a vest belt so he could put all the knives on it. He used [Telekinesis] to control all the knives, and then once he made sure all of them were completely under his control, he flew all of them randomly.

The whole forest looked like being bombarded by shrapnel and the trees collapsed into pieces. He watched all the daggers were moving randomly and didn’t go as he wanted. He was a bit frustrated and tried to control two of them at once.

The night came and Mykel kept concentrating on controlling the knives until the sun rose without him realizing it.

Mykel sat down on a tree trunk and stared at the forest got deforestation in a single night. It looked a bit messy and he still couldn’t control the six of them perfectly. He found a way to control them by pretending that each knife was his fingers, and it helped him a lot.

Mykel was playing with his knives and then he finally decided to use Hellfire on them. He was a bit skeptical about it but he could make a new set if he melted all the knives. He took a deep breath and lit them all with Hellfire, all of them could withstand the Hellfire as if it was nothing.

A minute passed and everything was fine, then two minutes, then five minutes. Mykel chuckled and then stabbed all of them on the ground surrounding him. He lit them all and made a pillar of hellfire that protected him.

“That’s enough playing around, I’m satisfied with these for now,” Mykel said to himself as he left the forest.
