About this eBook

After a successful rescue mission in the empire, Eizo welcomes Helen to the family. Life at the forge is peaceful once more, though living in the Black Forest comes with its own set of dangers. The family encounters another aggressive bear, and once they dispatch it, they find and adopt an orphaned wolf pup. With yet another mouth to feed, Eizo knows he must continue to test the limits of his cheats. His next challenge? Working with a rare, stubborn metal called appoitakara. Using this metal, Eizo forges Helen a new pair of swords and then decides to design a katana for himself! These powerful weapons come in handy when Samya tells Eizo about a type of ore located in the dangerous heart of the forest. When the family ventures out to search for it, they meet a young woman who is a mercenary and stumble upon the ultimate wild beast—a dragon! New faces, new monsters, and new metals are on the horizon for Forge Eizo, but is there any quiet life to be found?

Ratings and reviews

I'm not sure I'll continue with the series. Not only was this book extremely short but it was extremely repetitive of the previous book and until the last chapter nothing new occurred. Many of the issues I had in the previous book or two were continued exhaustively here. Despite being only early 30ish the main character repeatedly continues to talk about how old he is (maybe this was funny to someone in the first book???) which is extremely annoying and not funny. Additionally, the author keeps building the relationship with the MC and the girls around him but repeatedly has the MC say how no one is interested in him and he has no intention of ever being with anyone. This is book number 5 but the author is still using the same tropes and overused thoughts from the first book. Despite the great premise it's becoming boring which is sad because the series has so much potential.

its really bad, not because i dont like anime just because i hate the story. although it was creative

ok. I would've liked to see more of the city businesses, farming, adding a bathhouse.
