It was now two days' ti. The previous days went well with Jake learning more about the second stage of Qi. He even learnt how to coat his weapon with Qi and shoot invisible Qi strikes; he even managed to increase his Qi size to a small soccer ball.
He even managed to learn the snake bite perfectly and also advanced well in his weapon training. Today, Jake was very excited and it had nothing to do with Qi training or hand to hand club. Jake was happy because today was the day he was going to receive his interdiate boot from the blacksmith and Jake couldn't help but be excited.
He couldn't wait for the classes to be over. Jake waited impatiently and finally when it was 5pm, Jake just quickly bid sunny bye as he rushed out of the building to head towards the blacksmith shop. Jake didn't walk or jog, rather he ran to get to the shop. And when he got there, he opened the door and let himself in.
The chiming of the bell alerted the blacksmith that soone was at the door. "Oh it's you, young soldier. Welco."
"The na is Jake Lucas Mr blacksmith." Jake said with a smile.
"Well Jake, the na is Da, Mr Da not Mr blacksmith." Da said with a smile. "I suppose you are here for your boot right?"
"Yes of course, I can't wait any longer." Jake replied excitedly.
"Just give a mont." Da said as he went to the back that he went to the first ti Jake ca.
Jake suspected that that place was the blacksmithing area where Da forges weapons. Because the last ti Jake ca, he heard clanging noises from the place. After a few minutes of waiting and tapping his foot, Da finally ca out with sothing covered in a piece of clothing, then he set it down.
Jake wanted to rip the cloth covering his boot. He literally wanted to touch and rip it but a slap from Da on his hands managed to screw his head tight.
"This is my big reveal so don't go ssing it up with your impatience." Da said.
"You know the way you talk and behave, don't give off the vibes of a middle aged man rather you give off the vibes of a teenager." Jake said.
"Why won't I give off the vibes of a teenager when I'm always surrounded by them. Even impatient ones." Da said, pointing towards Jake.
"Whatever," Jake said, rolling his eyes. "Can you please just hurry up with the big reveal."
Da just sighed as he slowly raised the cloth covering the boots and then finally he had unveiled the boots. In front of Jake, was a boot that looked quite regular except for the black and grey fur design on it. The boot went past soone's ankle a bit.
Jake kept admiring it and even took and was just turning it around trying to see the features properly. While Da was impatiently tapping his hands on the counter.
"Well, will you try it on now or what?" Da impatiently said.
"Now who's the impatient one here?" Jake asked.
"You know, I'm old enough to be your dad so you can't talk to like we are both teenagers." Da smiled.
"Fine, I will try it on." Jake said.
Jake was tempted to use his inventory on the boots and then equip it but if he were to do it, he knew Da would surely have questions for him. So Jake just put the shoe on the old fashion way.
After putting it on, it was a perfect fit, as if it was made exactly for Jake's legs. "Well, is it good? Do you like it?" Da asked.
"It's good, yeah and I like it. It is even a perfect fit." Jake said.
"I'm glad you like it." Da smiled.
Then Jake removed the boot from his feet then he put on his normal shoes and held the boot as if it was an egg. Then he thanked the blacksmith profusely and happily left the shop. anwhile the blacksmith couldn't help but keep on smiling at Jake.
"That Kid is a good and fun kid. I like him." The blacksmith said.
anwhile after exiting the shop, Jake quickly used the Inventory skill on his boots and they disappeared into his system. When I had put the boot on, it had brought a system ssage so I need to check it out as soon as possible.
Jake walked a few more minutes and then finally got to his dorm to relax and he saw his roommates weren't there when he ca. So he quickly pulled the boot out of his inventory to inspect it.
