Chapter 258: Commander Weisman Shock (Part 1)
"Then you can come back tomorrow to pick it up," Amalia nodded her head and immediately put away the artifact.
Gustavo Herrera was a bit stunned.
So, the so-called "a little bit more time" meant just one day?
It wasn’t until Fabio Zelaya pulled him away that he come back to his sense.
"You’re clueless. Amalia is truly talented. His speed in repairing artifacts is at least twice as fast as that of ordinary Artificers. When she says how long it will take, it usually means just that. You don’t need to worry." Fabio Zelaya chuckled.
Gustavo Herrera’s eyes stung, "You were right before."
"Let bygones be bygones. Who was right or wrong doesn’t matter anymore. What’s important is that we’ll both be safe in the end."
"You’re right. We’ll definitely be safe." Gustavo Herrera nodded vigorously.
"Why hasn’t anyone come to me to repair artifacts today?" Commander Weisman finding it strange after he had been sitting in the tent for a while now, but no one had shown up to his tent.
He then called over his subordinate to ask him about it.
The subordinate hesitated and unable to articulate any reason.
Commander Weisman grew impatient, and said: "Just spit it out!"
"It should be because, everyone went to find that student named Amalia," the subordinate had heard about this early on but he had been afraid to tell Commander Weisman about it, for fear he would get angry.
Commander Weisman paused for a moment.
When he realized it, he wasn’t sure if he felt that everyone didn’t trust his abilities or if he thought his fees were too high.
With a stern face, he asked, "What’s going on? Explain it to me clearly!"
"That student doesn’t charge much. I heard she even repaired Fabio Zelaya’s artifact," the subordinate paused before continuing, "Not just him, several other severely damaged artifacts were also repaired by her."
Commander Weisman knew Fabio Zelaya; he was always at the forefront, so he experienced more damage to his artifacts.
Yesterday, when he came to him to have his artifact repaired, Commander Weisman clearly told him there was only a 20% chance of success.
Fabio Zelaya left without returning to him.
It sounded nice to say there was a 20% chance, but in reality, there wasn’t even a 10% chance.
It was doomed to fail to repair his artifact, but he couldn’t speak too poorly of himself, so he said there was a 20% chance.
This habitual saving of face resulted in people unconsciously believing that if his confidence was less than 50%, it wasn’t feasible.
The loss wasn’t just monetary; it would also affected his reputation and credibility.
"It’s impossible. How could his artifact be so damaged and still be repaired?" Commander Weisman instinctively denied.
"It’s true. I saw it with my own eyes. This morning, Fabio Zelaya even demonstrated his artifact’s attributes to everyone," the subordinate was initially skeptical but believed after witnessing it firsthand.
He paused before adding, "It seems like he even helped him improved the artifact’s attributes."
"I don’t believe it. His artifact was in such bad shape. It’s fortunate enough that it could be repaired, let alone improved its attributes. Could he have secretly swapped it for a new one?" Commander Weisman refused to admit his own shortcomings.
While that was said, it lacked credibility.
This place was a disaster zone; how could she suddenly acquire the same artifact all at once?
Besides, Fabio Zelaya had already used up most of his military merits to exchange for this artifact initially.
"If Commander Weisman doesn’t believe it, you can go to see it by yourself. That person seems to be repairing everyone’s artifacts publicly."
"Go on, I want to see it by myself if she’s really that capable!"
Commander Weisman refused to acknowledge it until he saw it with his own eyes.
The two of them later arrived at the place where Amalia was repairing artifacts.
There were many onlookers, but not a single one dared to disturbed Amalia with their voices.
The silence around them made the footsteps of the two men stand out.
Some people, following the direction of the sound, saw Commander Weisman’s imposing figure.
"Fabio, Commander Weisman is here," someone immediately informed Fabio Zelaya.
"Why did Commander Weisman come? Is he trying to cause trouble?" Fabio Zelaya frowned.
He had already been informed by Gustavo Herrera about the situation,and he knew that Commander Weisman actually had such a despicable character.
Initially, he found it hard to believe, but he knew Gustavo Herrera had no reason to lie to him.
Gustavo Herrera approached him, "It’s looks like trouble is brewing. Should we inform the general?"
"Let’s not disturb the general for now. He’s currently discussing important matters with the group leader. You go find Commander Zionel; we’ll make some preparations first."
"Alright, we’ll go now." Gustavo Herrera and his friend immediately went to find Commander Zionel.
Commander Weisman didn’t immediately stir up trouble.
He had been able to survive in the army for so long because he wasn’t foolish.
Although Amalia was relatively unknown people, Kenny Lin wasn’t.
He heard Kenny Lin was the one who brought her in.
So, he decided to see it by himself if Amalia truly had the skills to repair the artifacts he couldn’t.
Amalia’s speed in repairing artifacts was astonishingly fast, and her movements were dizzling.
Even if other Artificers could keep up with her actions, they couldn’t replicate them.
Such things required an Artificer to comprehend it on their own.
Commander Weisman watched it for five minutes, and he unconsciously becoming absorbed in it.
However, afterward, his mind couldn’t keep up with the speed.
When he came back to his senses, he was deeply shocked.
He initially thought it was just the other party’s good luck, but he never expected it to be her true skill.
Amalia’s ability was extraordinary, even someone as slow as him could see that.
Under the nervous surveillance of Fabio Zelaya and a few others, Commander Weisman ultimately didn’t cause the scene they had anticipated.
