Practice interrupted

The blade began to glow, and Athos swung it a few times, cutting through the air with each swing.

"I think I'll frame the dagger on the wall as my first success. Then, we'll continue with our lesson," Athos said after a minute had passed and the dagger lost its glow.

"Master, I believe you should continue practicing and studying the fundamentals of forging. It may have seemed easy because of your abundant mana, but I must say the final result is amateurish and lacks finesse," Dwarvin carefully pointed out flaws in Athos's work.

"The edges of the runes are poorly done, which hinders the flow of energy and the activation of the enchantment. The edge of the mana threads connecting the duration rune was also poorly done, causing energy leakage when you activate the enchantment, reducing its duration," Despite being careful not to sound rude, the dwarf continued to point out the numerous flaws he saw in the dagger.
