After he finished helping Abel out, K3308 left with a satisfied look on his face. To him, it was a wonderful experience to have taught someone so impressive.
Abel decided to take two missions. He wanted to do "rune-making" and "weapon forging and maintenance." For "weapon forging and maintenance," he only wanted to do the maintenance bit. As a grandmaster blacksmith, he wouldn't want to make weapons for others at a price that was too low.
If it was just repairing damaged weapons, he didn't think that it was particularly hard at all. Also, the required number was 15 pieces a month. He could probably get it all done in a day, so there really wasn't a reason that he shouldn't do it.
