[BL] After SSS-rank mage reborn as the Legendary Craftsman

Lucas bowed his head and looked at the ring.

At this moment, he finally truly understood the meaning of Kei’s action.

Such a precious piece of equipment, he could have kept it entirely, produced it himself and sold it at a high price, thereby becoming a famous Craftsman with an exclusive piece of equipment. But Kei chose to let all Craftsmen participate in crafting it together.

Does a person who doesn’t care about money and fame really exist?

Thunder didn’t wait any longer.

He immediately pulled the scanning machine from the corner of the room, spread the formula on the table and began scanning page by page.

”Thunder, what are you planning to do?” Lucas asked.

”Send this formula to the Korean Craftsman Association, what else.”

”Right now?”

Thunder glared at Lucas standing to one side.

”Do you think hunters across the country can wait for us to finish breakfast before using the equipment?”

Thunder said while scanning each page. The outlines of the ring frame, the energy stone and the patterns of the Purification skill quickly appeared on the screen.

After that, he took the video recording Lucas’s testing process, combined it with the formula and sent it to long-standing contacts in the Craftsman world.

Not only to Craftsmen he knew.

Thunder also sent it to crafting associations, large and small Guilds, and those in charge of distributing support items across Korea who had business relationships with him, in order to quickly spread this Purification Ring formula everywhere.

In the video, Lucas was poisoned, petrified and fell into a coma one after another. Each time, the Purification Ring flashed, clearing all the negative statuses on his body. At the end of the video, Lucas looked at the ring on his hand with eyes that were almost lifeless.

”This is the truth.” Thunder said into the camera. ”The formula successfully crafted by a Craftsman is provided to everyone, not exclusive at all. Any Craftsman with enough ability can craft it.”

The video was sent out.

At first only a few people opened it to watch, then a few dozen, then hundreds, thousands of Craftsmen began passing this Purification Ring crafting formula around.

In crafting rooms across Korea, countless people simultaneously stopped the work they were doing.

”Purification Ring?”

”Can it neutralize poison?”

”Not just poison. It also works on petrification and coma effects?”

”This formula is really being made public?”

Questions kept appearing on the communication channels of the Craftsman world.

Some people doubted, thinking Thunder had exaggerated the ring’s effects. But soon after, high-level Craftsmen with strong crafting abilities began testing the formula themselves.

A silver ring was crafted, an energy stone was mounted in the center of the ring, then the patterns of the Purification skill were engraved according to Kei’s exact design.

And when the tester deliberately triggered a poison effect on their body, the ring immediately glowed, and the poison disappeared.

Videos of successful Purification Ring crafting tests were sent directly to the communication channel by high-level Craftsmen.

The communication channel of the Craftsman world completely exploded.

”Success!”

”The formula is real!”

”The person who researched the Purification Ring really did make the formula public!”

”This will be the piece of equipment that changes the entire hunter world!”

The news quickly spread beyond the Craftsman world, reaching Guilds and teams waiting for Potions everywhere. Those who had been desperate because they couldn’t buy resistance potions began to see hope.

Meanwhile, in the small room of Thunder’s shop, Kei just silently looked at the Purification Ring on Lucas’s hand, feeling very happy inside.

He had instructed Thunder to keep his name hidden, Kei didn’t want to attract the attention of the whole world.

Because that would be too scary...

Lucas bowed his head and looked at the ring on his hand, his eyes still unable to leave that miraculous piece of equipment.

”Kei-nim...”

”Yes?”

Lucas said shyly:

”Can you let me keep this ring?”

Kei was slightly stunned, then immediately smiled.

”Of course. After all, it was originally made for hunters to use.”

”Really?”

Lucas was so happy he almost jumped up.He hurriedly took out the money, placing the entire stack on the table.

”Then I’ll buy it. This is the market price for a high-grade piece of equipment, so please accept it.”

Kei had no intention of giving the ring away for free, but the amount Lucas offered was completely reasonable. He nodded and gladly accepted it.

On the other side, Thunder was still busy replying to a flood of messages. The phone in his hand kept vibrating nonstop, with colleagues and associations alike asking about the Purification Ring formula.

Lucas looked at Thunder, then glanced at Kei.

After a moment of hesitation, he quietly approached Kei.

”Kei-nim, there’s something I’d like to ask you.”

”What is it?”

”Have you ever thought about joining a Guild?”

Kei blinked at Lucas, who quickly continued, his tone far more sincere than before.

”If you agree, our Guild Zootopia will offer you a very generous salary. You can use the best crafting room, be provided with free materials, and not have to worry about selling your products. All you need to do is become the exclusive Craftsman of Guild Zootopia.”

Lucas had been observing Kei for a long time.

A Craftsman with outstanding crafting skills, who was also willing to publicly share the Purification Ring formula without demanding exclusivity or enormous benefits. Someone like that was not only talented, but also had a rare level of good character.

If Guild Zootopia could obtain a Craftsman like Kei, their strength would undoubtedly increase tremendously.

”It’s a very tempting offer.” Kei chuckled. ”But I won’t leave Dong-San city.”

Lucas was taken aback.

Kei raised a hand and pointed toward Thunder, who was still frowning as he replied to messages.

”The reason I stay here is the same as Thunder’s.”

Lucas looked at Thunder.

Thunder was sitting in the middle of a messy room, surrounded by formula sheets, energy stones, and crafting tools. Though every major Guild across the country had contacted him at some point to recruit him, he had never once mentioned leaving Dong-San.

Perhaps because there were still people in this city who needed him.

Lucas was silent for a moment, then finally let out a soft sigh.

”I understand.”

He looked at Kei with regret.

”As expected, someone like you can’t be easily persuaded.”

Kei simply smiled.

”Zootopia has plenty of talented people who need you too.”

Lucas burst out laughing, his hand tightening around the Purification Ring.

”Then I’ll take this gift back to them.”

Outside the window, sunlight shone down on the streets of Dong-San city. Elsewhere, Craftsmen all across Korea had already begun crafting Purification Rings according to Kei’s formula.
