I Made This?

[Ace POV],

I was taken aback by the sudden occurrence of the 'ASB#' rune emitting light, but without thinking too much about it, I calmed myself and fully concentrated on the changes that were happening to the bone dagger inscribed with a rune in my hands.

Perhaps I should have dropped the bone dagger on any of the tables around me, but the thought that doing so might affect what was going on at the time stopped me, and I decided to wait and see where things went.

Of course, if I noticed anything amiss with the bone dagger in my hands, I would immediately throw it away.

With this in mind, I continued to watch the changes that were taking place with the bone dagger.

The first thing I noticed after the rune began to emit light was that the rune ink began to spread around the bone dagger, turning it black all over.

Aside from that, the 'foundation' I tended for the rune lines and inscriptions began to appear on the bone dagger's black surface.

I watched as the spreading rune ink harmonised with the foundation I had craved before as I watched these changes appear slowly in the bone dagger.

Aside from that, after the bone dagger's appearance changed from its original white surface to the rune ink black, with the rune lines, inscriptions, and the rune all becoming visible, I observed the bone dagger emitting a dim light after all the changes stopped.

This is when I noticed the new appearance of the bone dagger.

The almost unrecognisable bone dagger had many thin vein line lines scattered around its body that kept emitting a dim yellowish brown light at times, in addition to the original white surface that had now turned back.

While I recognized these lines as the rune lines I had previously craved and engraved on the bone dagger, I turned the bone dagger around several times and couldn't find the inscriptions I had previously engraved on the bone dagger.

It was as if they vanished and were replaced by more rune lines. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

It was almost as if it were a predetermined process.

I had no idea what was going on with the bone dagger after connecting the rune lines to the rune because basic alchemy knowledge made no mention of it.

The highest thing it did that I could count as a contribution to this was to help me by giving me the knowledge to determine whether or not I was successful in engraving a rune was to inform me that if the rune making process was successful, a change would occur immediately after the rune lines connected with the rune, and if it wasn't, the rune lines would scatter.

What I don't know is how the rune lines will scatter.

Perhaps the disappearance of the inscriptions is normal.

Aside from that, the reason it did not specify the changes that will occur after the rune engraving was successful is because different changes occur depending on the object the rune was engraved on in addition to the rune engraved.

The change in this case was probably quite simple because the appearance of the bone dagger only changed with the color of the rune lines.

But, since guessing wasn't going to get me anywhere, I finally used the primordial chronicle to check the information on the bone dagger in my hands.

With all of the changes that had occurred, I knew that I was somehow successful in engraving a rune, which was amazing given that it was my first time engraving a rune.

I did feel a sense of accomplishment from this, but only for a brief moment before it vanished.

As I was thinking about these things, I saw the information from the primordial chronicle about the bone dagger in my hands, and when I saw it, only one thought came to mind.

'I made this?'

...…

[Low Rare Grade Runic Bone Dagger],

A bone dagger carved from a rank 1 monster to be used as a weapon, but the effectiveness of the bone was reduced by several degrees due to the bad handling of a novice rune maker and alchemist, but because of the rune inscribed on it, it became a certified weapon recognized by the primordial chronicle and had its grade elevated to the rare grade, becoming a runic weapon.

...….

'I made this?'

My mind was still on the information provided by the primordial chronicle as I considered this.

My focus was more on the name of the bone dagger because that was where it was, making me realize that the bone dagger I made as my first experiment had somehow been elevated to the level of a rare grade weapon.

This was either a fluke or I was more talented at rune making than pill making, and I preferred the former because I did not fully support the motion of one having a talent.

Talent can be established, but that wasn't the point; the point was that I managed to create a rare grade weapon.

This thought alone meant a great deal.

As I considered this, I returned my attention to the description of the 'runic weapon' in my hands and read it carefully this time.

...….

I understood a few things after taking a few minutes to process the information from the runic bone dagger to my head.

For one thing, the earth rat's bone was sufficient to be used as a weapon, which was understandable given that it was obtained from a rank 1 monster, no matter how weak it was.

It should be better and more powerful than inferior and normal grade weapons.

If the aforementioned bone monster was a ridiculously strong monster, I'm not sure what wonders might occur when the bone is used as a weapon.

Aside from that, it appears that runes are more powerful than I previously thought.

Even a simple rune could evaluate an object to a rare grade item.

It could be argued that the object and materials used also played a role in the grade of the runic weapon, but I believe that the rune should have been primarily responsible for the bone dagger grade because it appears that I did seriously damage the bone while processing it.

I'll blame it on my inexperience for not even knowing.

As I was thinking about these things, I played with the bone dagger in my hands for a while to get a feel for it, and then I stopped and decided to go out to do more experiments with the bone dagger in my hands.

As I considered this, I arranged the area surrounding the tables around me before exiting the basement, and for the majority of my journey to the surface, I kept looking at the bone dagger in my hand.

While I couldn't feel many emotions, I could tell I was conflicted on the inside.

Given the amount of effort I put into the rune making process, it just felt so basic to create a rare grade method.

It wasn't that the rune making process I went through was easy, but given everything that had happened up to this point, it was better to say I was expecting more.

I expected to do more about the process of creating a rare grade item of any kind if I ever started making items of that grade, but here I am.

I can only say that my thoughts on rare grade items were that high.

It's now a question of whether the item I've created can live up to the expectations I had previously.

As I reflected on these things, I began to wonder what would have happened if I had been more experienced in the act of rune making and had a high level in rune making as a rune maker or alchemist.

As I made my way out of the mansion, I was meant with the dark sky and using my mental clock to gauge what time it was now according to what time I thought it would be now according to the atmosphere, I would say it was around after 4 to 5 in the morning.

'To think I spent so much time down there,' I thought as I considered whether I should take a bath first before doing anything because I was drenched in sweat from everything that had happened.

I stopped walking for a while after finding a small open area in the woods as time slowly passed as I made my way into a relatively dense area with woods.

Seeing this, I prepared to witness the performance of a rare grade item created by my hands.
