**Episode 031: Once it Happens, it’s Bound to Happen Again**
The next day, the three of us set out once again.
“All right, let’s do it today too.”
I decided to verify the production capabilities through crafting.
“Storage.”
First, I tested the storage skill. I placed small items to grasp the overall capacity, and it turned out to be about the size of a small storage shed.
“It’s quite small. For me, who has a magic bag, the capacity is quite limited. However, according to the appraisal explanation, the capacity will increase over time with continued use. So, having a magic bag now shouldn’t be a problem. Thanks to the six status points and Enjyu’s great luck.”
“Production.”
Next, when I envisioned the production skill in my mind, the names of currently producible items appeared in a list in my head. The necessary materials for each item were also listed.
“Oh, there are quite a few items I can make.”
There were quite a few materials in the treasure chest, allowing me to create a fair number of items. The types ranged from weapons and armor to clothing, furniture, medicine, and more. Perhaps due to the low rank, I couldn’t make high-level items yet, but this implied that as the rank increased, creating high-level items would become possible.
“Now, let’s try making something. Let’s start with a healing potion that seems useful.”
Regarding the repair skill, it seems that as long as you have the materials, you can fix it in a few seconds to tens of seconds.
Lastly,
“Enhance.”
This is a skill to strengthen various items. You might wonder what this is about, but if enhancement is successful, the item will have a notation of +〇 added to it, indicating an improvement in performance. The number inside the circle increases with each enhancement, enhancing the performance. However, as the number increases, the success rate of enhancement decreases.
The tricky part is that if it succeeds, and that’s a big “if,” when you fail, the original weapon disappears along with all the items used for enhancement.
The terrifying aspect of enhancement is its resemblance to gambling. If you succeed once, you might think you can do it again, and you end up challenging it repeatedly, losing all your items if they disappear.
This system is commonly found in MMORPGs, resembling a skill that many people have regretted using. Although incredibly useful, it is also an extremely risky skill.
“Ah...”
In fact, I tried it with an item of the same equipment, but after succeeding three or four times, I got caught up in the idea that if I succeeded again, the performance would improve even more. I just failed on the fifth enhancement now.
For enhancement, you need enhancement stones, and since I didn’t have many, the loss is a bit painful. However, I couldn’t stop myself from trying again and again.
“Ah...”
But before I knew it, my vision warped again, and I couldn’t stand, collapsing on the spot. It seems I did it again. I will definitely be teased by the others when I wake up.
With such thoughts, my consciousness faded away.
