Odyssey of the Blind God Chapter 501 Woof

Chapter 501 Woof

Nial hoped that some viewers of the WeTube videos would recall his Runic Armaments, and that was exactly what happened.
The emblem of the Orion Artisan Guild was engraved on all goods made in the Guild, which included Nial's Broken Runic Armaments and the bow the archeresses had used.
In no time, the popularity of the Orion Artisan Guild increased by leaps and bounds, but that was also quite obvious. He was the only person who could create Runic Armaments that were strong enough for Prometheus Originals to kill Keltia-ranked Originals. It didn't even matter whether they were only one-time use weapons because a single and perfectly timed attack was more than enough to serve the purpose.
The prowess of the Orion Artisan Guild's runic armaments was clearly shown to everyone and the number of customers increased in the blink of an eye.
However, what most didn't expect was to see that the price of his Broken Runic Armaments was on par with Tier-3 runic armaments, or customized Peak Tier-2 runic armaments.
Most Originals, who weren't able to afford such expensive Runic Armaments in the first place, could only leave with depressed expressions. Their interest in Broken Runic Armaments wouldn't help them if they would never be able to afford them…
However, not just poor Originals were interested in the Broken Runic Armaments. There were also wealthy Originals, Merchants, and also powerful human organizations that clearly showed their interest in the Orion Artisan Guild's products. This included the other Runic Armaments, not just the Broken-Type ones.
Many Organizations were ready to strike a deal with the Orion Artisan Guild but Nial was not willing to meet their leaders and he was not ready to give anyone a discount either.
Melheim met the leaders of the organizations which was also why he was considered the real Guild Master rather than someone who was hiding in the shadows. Nonetheless, Melheim Zorn was not someone who easily gave in to the pressure of others. Some Organizations were trying to force the Orion Artisan Guild into giving them what they desired but Adventurers from the Onyx Association would then come and point their customized Runic Weapons at them, thereby silencing them.
Some even revealed Broken Runic Armaments at the first Tier. Nial could produce close to 20 Tier-1 Broken Runic Armaments in the time he required to produce one Tier-2 Broken Runic Armament. This was partially due to the lack of Master Blacksmiths in the Orion Artisan Guild and also the lack of resources.
It was not as if they were actually lacking resources in terms of materials but more like manpower. They were currently missing out on talented Artisans, which was also why Nial had hired many instructors in the hopes of finding a gem in the rough.
Nial knew that it would take a while before the Instructors would show their true value but that was fine. He had enough time.
A few days passed in which Nial was fully focused on making money. Most Organizations had purchased only a handful of Tier-2 Runic Armaments and a few Broken Tier-1 Runic Armaments. Broken Tier-1 Runic Armaments were as strong as Tier-3 Runic Armaments but they could be wielded by Origin-ranked Originals.
That meant one could defend against a monster at the Deux-rank with the Broken Tier-1 Runic Armament by using the entire Mana inside the body. The higher the rank of the Origin-ranked Original, the stronger the Broken Tier-1 Runic Armament, but even 1st Origin ranked Originals were able to unleash some of the Broken Runic Armaments' power, though it was not possible to defend against a Deux-ranked Monster.
They wouldn't even be able to activate the runic armament before they would die at the hands of such a terrifying monster.
Melheim Zorn gave a detailed explanation of the armaments' effects to everyone who purchased Broken Runic Armaments, how to use them best and what to pay attention to. He made sure that nobody would be able to come back and demand a refund for being unable to kill a powerful monster with their runic armament, or something like that.
He made every customer sign a declaration that clearly stated they had been taught the utilization of the runic armaments and that the Orion Artisan Guild wouldn't be responsible for any incident whatsoever.
Nial wanted to avoid trouble through this, though he knew that some organizations were likely to create more problems for him in the future. He watched the recordings of Melheim's meetings with the heads of those organizations, or their managers by visualizing everything. Visualizing the facial expressions and listening to the tone in their voice was enough for Nial to tell whom he would give prioritized service in the future, and whom he might decline in the future.
Their attitude toward the Orion Artisan Guild, Melheim, and his Artisans was the most important in Nial's opinion.
Thus, he left the hall he had worked at for the last few days when a group of government officials arrived in Melheim's office, unannounced and threw a fit.
'Looks like I will have some fun!'
Nial shrouded his body in darkness which allowed him to change his clothes while he was walking through the corridors of the Guild's building. He found himself in the corridor connected to Melheim's office.
"Another blind kid…there are so many cripples in this place…" One of the Guards who had accompanied the government officials muttered disgruntledly. He laughed mockingly, just to quiet down when the bulky guard next to him tapped on his shoulder.
"Shut it!"
The smaller guard stiffened and he nodded his head in confusion.
Nial halted in his tracks less than two meters in front of Melheim's office.
"I need to pass through," Nial spoke calmly while pointing at the door of Melheim's office. A total of four guards could be seen there, all humans and at the Prometheus rank.
Their Mana Core's rank was lower than that of Nial's but the guards couldn't even sense any mana within him. Thus, three of them began to laugh while the bulky guard remained silent. The bulky guard looked at Nial as if he was trying to assess something.
'He is not intimidated, and he doesn't seem as if he was bothered by Lacron's comment, but something is off…His clothes are of extremely high quality and he is too calm…'
"I'm sorry but you have to wait until the officials are done dealing with your boss. We've been ordered to safeguard this place by the government. It's an official mission," The bulky man explained in a very polite tone.
The laughing guards halted in their tracks and they looked at their captain for a moment before they resumed making fun of him again.
Nial visualized the four guards and he nodded his head at the bulky guard with a faint smile.
"I know, but that's why I need to be here. They're asking for me, after all!" Nial explained to the bulky man as he added, "If you feel like the government treats you too badly, consider joining the Onyx Association. I pay them better, they have a nice training ground with Nightshadow Elven Combat Instructors, and you can get more resources. If you tell me your name, I will make sure that I will welcome you with a Tier-2 Runic Armament, or a full set of Tier-1 Runic Armaments."
The sounds from within the office were getting louder, but Nial was still calm. He had the entire corridor and the interior of Melheim's office clearly visualized in front of him.
Nial's visualizations were more than enough to tell that the government officials were making a fuss while Melheim was calmly seated on his comfortable chair.
The office table was between them and Melheim was calmly looking at them through his Runic eye.
"Hmm?" The bulky man blurted out before shutting his mouth. He was not sure what Nial was trying to do right now, but he seemed genuine with his offer. However, that sincerity confused the bulky man even more.
The other guards continued to laugh when they heard what Nial said but the young, blind Original merely continued to smile.
"The three of you are dogs," Nial spoke calmly while unleashing his mana all of a sudden. Dominion was activated and it affected the three laughing guards immediately.
They abruptly fell silent for a few seconds and turned over to Nial in shock.
"Woof?!" One of them asked, his eyes widening in shock as he heard the word that left his mouth.
"Woof woof!!" Another one laughed before turning silent himself.
"Sit over there!" Nial ordered and the three guards sat down on the ground where he had pointed at.
Meanwhile, the bulky guard could only look at him, baffled.
