"Good morning, Ryzen!" I replied warmly, putting down the cup of tea in my hands and turning towards the sound of his voice. Although he looked absolutely awful, the confident look in his eyes made me smile. Even though it must've been hard, he had succeeded! The real question though, was why he forced himself to do it in a day. If he needed more time, I would've easily given him more than a week to enchant it. Eh, maybe he was challenging himself.
But the sight of my new sword immediately took my breath away, throwing all other thoughts out the window. It was enchantingly beautiful, and I could feel the power emanating off it from a mile away. The delicate markings matched the colour of my own mismatched irises, bringing back fond memories of my doting parents.
My hands trembled slightly as I brought it closer to me, gently brushing against some of the more intricate runes. Standing up slowly, I gave it a simple test swing, careful not to hit anything nearby. The blade was as light as I remembered it, perhaps even weighing less than before. I could feel almost no air resistance when I swung, it's sharpness was as clear as day to see.
It was perfect.
"The wager is off." I began ambiguously, before turning my head to look at the messy, brown-haired fellow next to me.
"I will give you 40G for this enchanted sword, which is enough to open a large stall if you so please. Or, you could use it to open a smaller stall and save the rest of the money for buying materials and the like. What you do with it is up to you. But... thank you for this enchantment. It is beautiful and more than I ever hoped for. If you are fine with my offer, I will head up to my room and get the rest of the money as I didn't bring it all with me."
