“What is this?” Edchan wondered with a serious expression. It was his first time seeing such a thing.
The dragon head, which looked like it was about to open its eyes, wasn’t something that could be seen just anywhere.
“It is as you can see. It is a dragon’s head,” Hyeonu replied calmly. There was no reason for him to be surprised. It wasn’t his first time seeing this head after all.
“How did you get this? I don’t think you have the strength to defeat a dragon. In addition... the energy of the corpse is much different from the dragons I know.” Edchan’s expression became more confused. The energy he felt from the dragon corpse was unlike that of the dragons he knew. It was the first time in his life that he felt energy like this.
Moreover, the appearance looked different too. With light purple skin and two huge horns that rose from the forehead, this dragon was different from any other dragon. There was a clear difference.
“It is from the demon world. I didn’t kill it, unfortunately. I received it as a gift.”
“The demon world?” Edchan’s expression became strange again. He had never heard of dragons existing in the demon world.
“Are there dragons in the demon world?”
“There is only one now, but... they definitely exist.”
“So why are you showing me this?”
“Why? Edchan, where can I find a better blacksmith than you?”
Hyeonu’s purpose was simple. As always, he entrusted Edchan with making equipment. Hyeonu made an unconventional offer: “I want the same as last time. A leather armor set. Apart from that, you can use the rest.”
After making the armor set, he would give the remaining materials to Edchan. However, Edchan refused.
“I might be a Golden Hammer, but I’m not that expensive. Just a small amount of the materials is enough.” Edchan felt burdened by Hyeonu’s proposal. In fact, Edchan only needed enough to make the armor. When else would he get to touch dragon leather? After all, this was a dragon of the demon world where there was now only one left.
“By the way... do you want to use all of the dragon’s head?” Edchan suddenly had a good idea. It was a pity to waste the giant dragon head all on equipment. That in itself was a lot of work.
“No? Edchan, if you don’t need it, there is no need to use all of it as material.” Hyeonu naturally had no intention of dismantling the dragon’s head and turning it into items.
‘Who wouldn’t like it?’
To be honest, it was a crazy idea. Of course, it would be great if Edchan made items using Fuca’s head. It was just that Hyeonu didn’t want those items going to other players. They had to be used by Hyeonu alone. Otherwise… it should only be given to Hyeonu’s acquaintances. That was his limit.
“Why don’t you give some materials to that human called Suped and me? Then I’ll be able to make something amazing. I will make something that even the emperor of the empire doesn’t have,” Edchan bragged after hearing Hyeonu’s answer.
Edchan was really going to make a masterpiece. His strength would be lacking if he did it on his own, but he would be able to complete it with the help of the brilliant magician, Suped.
“I would appreciate it...” Hyeonu accepted Edchan’s offer because there was no reason to refuse.
“Then let’s start with some light butchery. I need to make the armor you said...” Edchan smiled happily as he pulled out a dagger, seemingly with Hyeonu’s approval. Then he started to climb Fuca’s head. He added, “This time, I’ll make special earrings as well by using the secrets of my Red Envil tribe.”
Edchan started digging at Fuca’s eyes, which were as large as his head. Fuca’s eyes were like jewels—gray jewels that were roughly many meters in diameter.
‘Make earrings from that?’
Hyeonu was startled when he saw Fuca’s eyes. They were of such a huge size. It was a pity to make earrings from them. Earrings were only around 1–2 centimeters long. Even if the earrings were large and colorful, approximately hundreds of them could be made from the eyes.
“Is there a reason why you need both of the eyes? One seems to be enough to make earrings...?” Hyeonu asked.
Edchan ignored Hyeonu’s questioning gaze as he grabbed Fuca’s huge eyes with both hands and climbed down from Fuca’s head. He carefully placed the eyes on the ground before saying, “There are two earrings, so there should naturally be two materials. Why? Do you want to wear only one?”
“It’s not like that... Isn’t the material too large compared to the result?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. What do you think the Red Anvil tribe is? I can use our secret method. Now, take a look.” Edchan threw the dagger onto the ground and stood in front of the huge beads that were even larger than himself.
Then he gently placed his hands on one of the beads.
“Eh?” Hyeonu’s mouth dropped open and he blinked his eyes continuously at the sight that unfolded before him. The huge bead started to become smaller; the eye was being compressed. In less than 10 seconds, Fuca’s eye was the size of a fist.
“Right, you do need two.” Hyeonu nodded.
Edchan quickly compressed the other eye as well and tucked it into a bag that was tied to his waist.
“Now, let’s start the butchery to make the leather armor.” Edchan picked up the dagger that had fallen to the ground and approached Fuca’s head again, stripping off the skin on the neck section. His work soon came to an end as the amount of skin that had to be peeled off was very small. The section of skin Edchan removed was insignificant compared to the size of Fuca’s head.
“Now, I need you to do something for me. Do you see that place over there where the skin came off? There is a marked part over there. Just cut the flesh and bones for me. I want it cut so as little blood as possible flows out,” Edchan said. He asked Hyeonu for a small favor because it was hard for him to do this himself. Edchan had barely managed to remove the skin, so it was impossible for him to cut the bones.
