Chapter 1: Good Morning Blacksmith

As morning comes it was 6:30 am in the morning and in a simple house with a shed next to the house. As we can see Ryu Muramasa who is sleeping in his bed then his digital alarm began to beep non-stop until he lift his hand and pressed the cancel button he then gets up and he went to the bathroom and began to take a bath. After taking a bath he went to his bathroom sink grab his cup and toothbrush and his toothpaste and began to brush his teeth after brushing his teeth he went back to his bed room he wears his black socks, his cargo pants, and white t-shirt and began to make his bed and organise his room and left and wore his boots made by his father. He then grab his keys and opens his Blacksmith shop prepping the tools, materials, the machines and his forge firing up with croquettes he purchased yesterday and ignited the forge using a handmade blower he made a few weeks ago he then prep the forge for work and went outside of his house in front of his gate and flips the sign from close to open.

"Alright then... Let's get things started" he said

And he went back inside and began to fire up the forge more to reach to a appropriate temperature to turn the metal to bright yellow glow for forging and he cleans his workspace and anvil then he hears a knock from his gate. He inspect the gate and sees a middle aged man with a knife in its scabbard.

"Hey! Ryu I need you to fix my knife and this one can you restore this" he said showing a knife and a rusty cleaver he then nods to him and told him "Yeah I can I'll call you if there something wrong with the material or its ready" he said while smiling "Alright thanks man! Anyways my dad told me that a hero is looking for you so he told him to go to your address" he told Ryu and he gave him a nod and went back to his workshop.

Ryu then inspect both the knife and the cleaver and he looks at the knife in a somewhat fine condition but he sees some nicked edge of the blade and very small cracks from the blade then as for the cleaver he has to replace the handle, remove they layer of rust by sanding the cleaver even heat treat it to increase the durability and for the knife he had to sharpen it to reach razor sharpness and to remove the nicked edge of the knife. He then put on a pair of gloves then went to the sanding machines and turn them on and sharpen the knife first from different grits of sand belts to reach razor sharpness and removing the nicked edge. And he went to the cleaver and began to remove the layer of rust and made sure there are no rust spots in the knife and dismantle the handle of the cleaver and replace it with something better. After that he went to his forge and place the cleaver beneath the embered croquettes. And began pumping air to increase the temperature and went to the knife and began to remove the burrs using a leather strap to increase it's sharpness more and sheath it back to its scabbard and went back to his forge and sees the cleaver reaching an appropriate temperature for heat treatment and he quenched it with forging oil and as soon as he pull out the treated blade it spontaneously combusted into flame then dies down slowly. And Ryu blows out the flame and inspect it for any mistakes during the treatment and he began to sharpen the cleaver once more and place the cleaver to his workbench and he grab a piece of wood from his shelves and went to his bandsaw and began to cut the piece of wood to form a cleaver handle. And add a metal band made of copper from his shelves for looks and finally added wood oil to add a finishing look. He then make a slieve for the cleaver to keep the cleaver safe and the edge of the knife stay sharp.

He went back to his home and called his client about the two knives he delivered about their repairs. And the client was satisfied and wanted it delivered so he then went to another call form a friend of his to deliver his knife to his address. After an hour his friend arrived and gave him both of the knives and the address of the delivery his friend nodded and went to deliver his repaired knives.

After that other clients began delivering many knives even antique weapons and armor for restoration and repairs and forging requests so Ryu Worked nonstop lifting materials, hammering metals, machines running, and the forge filled with other metalworks for repairs, restoration, forging request. After all that work it was now late in the afternoon and began to deliver many of his finished work then he sees a person knocking in his door. So he went to check and sees an old man much larger than him

"Um... How may I help you mister?" he asked then the old man speaks "hello there young man may I have a forging request" he said then Ryu oblidge and asked "What will be the forging request then?" he asked

then he shows him a blueprint and Ryu unravel the blueprint and sees a katana with it's own design and the required materials some are either hard to find but easy to make and materials that are expensive he then asked

"Um... Care to explain who you are old man all of these materials are either expensive but I can make them easily so yeah it will cost you more than you think" he said with his one eyebrow up "My hero name is Yoroi Musha young man and can you make this katana for me" he said with his stoic voice "Oh so you must be the hero that an old client of mines told me to... Yeah I can make it and it will be delivered where Mister?" he asked then Musha told him to deliver it to his agency.

After that conversation he left with his personal bodyguards and his car and left his house then he went to his workshop and place the katana blueprints above his workbench and began to look at the plans with his tools in hand and the material he had and even ordered the exact materials for the weapons it may cost so much but it is for an important client.
