The adventurer at the bottom is fantasizing again.

Chapter 102 Spell Amplifier

Before I can use the spells I've learned with ease, this may be the most suitable path for me.

Although Lorraine will most likely still purchase a staff in the future, since that way he can use the staff to harass enemies from a distance.

If the enemy thinks he's a fragile mage and tries to rush at him, he can wait until they get close before drawing his longsword and catching them off guard.

Thinking of this, Lorraine couldn't help but feel excited.

He looked at the dwarf before him, who seemed to possess extraordinary skills, and asked expectantly, "Mr. Boric, what if my requirement isn't to make it into a magic sword, but rather to create some kind of magic amplifier?"

The dwarf scratched his beard, still seemingly not understanding what he meant: "Isn't that still a staff? Amplifying spell effects is also a function of a staff."

Eileen, standing to the side, widened her eyes. Having fought alongside Lorraine several times, she instantly understood what he meant.

"You mean... a spell that doesn't need the wand to channel the magic power of the magic net, but only uses it to amplify your magic?" she exclaimed.

This is the most suitable solution for him; it's a genius idea! How come I didn't think of it!

No, no proper monks are like him.

"Yes, we only need the amplification part of the spell. Can you do that?" Lorraine smiled and nodded.

"Passive amplification...does not modify the sword's structure..."

Boric leaped onto the counter, carrying the rusty throat and moving from side to side, the wooden counter creaking under its weight.

He muttered a few words to himself, then suddenly looked up at Lorraine and asked, "You can cast spells instantly? I mean, real spells, not just tricks."

Ordinary people wouldn't spend a lot of money to enhance magic.

J

...a part of it.

Lorraine raised an eyebrow; this dwarf was quite perceptive.

"Instant cast? You're a warlock? Your bloodline seems pretty good..."

"Borrick's eyes widened immediately. He looked him up and down, his gaze quickly settling on his face. He nodded and said, "It does look quite similar. The idea is correct. Many spellcasters create these kinds of extra spell amplifiers, but most of them are made into ornaments."

The dwarf's face showed a confused expression again.

"Then why don't you just buy a magical accessory with an amplifying effect, instead of obsessively crafting the sword to have that effect?" he asked.

"That way I can cast spells while swinging my sword, without having to divert my attention to activate that magical ornament," Lorraine replied briefly.

He felt this problem much more deeply than most people because he had many magical equipment, which often made it inconvenient for him to multitask in battle.

In the heat of battle, a single moment of distraction could determine the course of one's life.

"In that case... I can lay the foundation for you during the reforging process, and then add some auxiliary materials that are more compatible with magic."

"But you'll have to find those mechanical masters yourself to infuse the magical artifacts; only they can do that."

"As for the fee, it will be increased to 150 gold coins, with a deposit of 50 coins, to be collected in seven days."

"Okay, let's do it this way."

Lorraine took the heavy money bag from her pouch, removed the difference in the deposit, and handed it to Boric.

If it's 150 gold, he's still a little short of his current savings, but not by much.

If there's no time to dispose of those furs and spices, I can borrow some money from Piper or Eileen; they probably wouldn't be stingy with those dozen or so gold coins.

I just don't know how many gold coins it will take to infuse the magical artifact. It looks like a huge sum, and even selling all the spoils of war might not be enough.

We'll have to see how it goes when the time comes. We can always borrow more; after all, we have a rich woman here...

Thinking of this, Lorraine secretly glanced at Eileen and found that she was looking at her expectantly and even curled her lips in a disdainful smirk.

Tsk... Does this woman know I want to borrow money from her?

"Okay, come pick it up at this time in seven days."

The dwarf accepted the money and nodded in satisfaction.

Leaving the blacksmith's shop, Lorraine walked briskly towards the tavern. With his weapon upgrade secured, he was in a very good mood.

I'll spend the next few days flipping through that notebook. I still have eight days left on my lease for the tavern room, so there's no rush to move to the new house Piper found.

I still have to deal with Gary's matter, and in three days I have to go to Viscount Hermann's banquet to see what he's up to.

Thinking about it that way, it's actually quite busy.

Moreover, after obtaining the sword, one must continue taking on quests. Firstly, one needs to quickly earn money to cover the cost of upgrading the Rusty Throat sword; secondly...

My hands are so itchy to play!

As soon as Lorraine came out of the blacksmith's shop, he couldn't wait to try out the upgraded Rustthroat.

I wonder how powerful my spells would be if I added the magic amplification effect.

Thinking of this, a bright smile spread across his face.

"Do you have enough money?"

Eileen walked beside him with her arms crossed, watching him inexplicably giggle, thinking that this guy was obsessed with money.

Lorraine rubbed her hands together and chuckled, "I am indeed a little nervous... Surely our beautiful and generous Miss Eileen wouldn't have the heart to stand idly by."

Eileen glanced at the guy, a slight smile playing on her lips. She slowed her pace and said leisurely, "Beg me."

Without a word, Lorraine stepped to the side and blocked her way, saying in a tone that even he found nauseating, "Please—you—beautiful Miss Eileen, kind Teacher Eileen, please have mercy and save this poor, destitute adventurer who can't even afford to repair his sword..."

"You...you...you!"

Eileen knew he was shameless, but she didn't expect him to be utterly shameless.

Her ears started to burn, and then she looked around like a thief, feeling that everyone passing by was staring at them.

"Alright, alright, you can have it! Don't embarrass yourself in the street, so many people are watching. Get out of here... get out of here!"

Eileen kicked Lorraine twice, gritted her teeth, and dragged him toward the alley entrance, unaware that this only drew even more onlookers.

An adventurer thought they were a young couple flirting and clapped and cheered for them, even whistling.

"Good job, girl, give him a good kick in the ass!"

After finally getting out of the alley, Eileen's face was almost burning red. She glared at Lorraine and turned to walk ahead of him without looking back.

"Wait for me!"

She suddenly stopped and turned around, saying, "The interest is 10% per month. If you can't pay it back, hmph..."

""

"If you can't pay me back, I'll give myself to you."

"roll..."

"Okay! But seriously... thank you, Eileen."

"snort."
