Rean continued, "Don't worry. I won't make you do anything illegal or anything that goes against your morals. This will be purely blacksmithing-related work. What you'll help me build won't bring trouble to anyone either. If you want, you can even include that in a contract."
"Six months..." Farriko pondered for a moment before finally nodding. "Very well. If you truly bring me real results, we can do that. What do you need me to do now?"
Rean smiled. "Stay still. I'm going to hit you."
"Wh—"
Before Farriko could even finish speaking, Rean moved like a bullet. His fingers rapidly struck several points across Farriko's body in succession. The pain was immediate and intense, causing Farriko to instinctively try to step back.
"Bear with it!" Rean stopped him immediately. "I'm reshaping your meridians while they are still saturated. If we stop now, your condition will actually worsen for the next several months, so don't move."
*Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...*
