But how did he get it up on the display stand he can't reach to begin with
He threw it. It's incredibly light.
Now the only question is: how did the blacksmith get the sword up there in the first place?
apprentice tall
He asked someone to raise him up.
Mithril step stool
But he sold it
The knight: "Umm, that's great, but I still have 5 levels to go before I can wield mithril. Do you have anything in steel?"
Buys it for later because the stats look awesome. Gets the 5 levels and it gets outshined by regular drops.
Art is good, the dialogue is strange though. Is the artist ESL?
Why not, also I would've never understood your meaning if it were not like the fourth time I see this abbreviation thrown around and producing a thread of confused readers
ESL
English as a second or foreign language refers to the use of English by individuals whose native language is different, commonly among students learning to speak and write English. Variably known as English language development (ELD), English as a foreign language (EFL), English as a second language (ESL), English for speakers of other languages (ESOL), English as an additional language (EAL), or English as a new language (ENL), these terms denote the study of English in environments where it is not the dominant language.

People aren't supposed to be cute, you are supposed to hate them and tell the slaves to work harder.
To test it, clearly I must hit it with another sword...
