[Blacksmith Soul Glyph(Silver>Gold): Increases the attributes of any tool, weapon or armor forged by the bearer of this Glyph by 200%(100>200%). There is no such thing as failure in blacksmithing. Anything the smith forges can become an Aether Artifact.]
Under the influence of his enhanced cognitive abilities, Jake had not only completed his Blacksmithing training in the Inner Purgatory Dream, but had also combed through a good quarter of the knowledge and technology introduced in the data provided by Hade. It was like a rebirth.
Before today, he had never realized how ignorant he was and how this ignorance was a hindrance to his development.

If some are wondering, this kind of pseudo Bronze Aether Artefact Armor is expensive. Even if other young Aetherists are willing to make it, the likelihood of them being able to get the required amount of magic metal is very low without a powerful faction backing them.
