The young man stood just outside the blacksmith's shop, sunlight spilling across his shoulders in molten gold. The rhythmic pounding of the forge had quieted behind him, replaced by the lazy hum of the town going about its midday pace. A faint smile crept onto Li Wei's face as a translucent screen shimmered faintly before his eyes—its familiar glow illuminating the afternoon air.
"Ah," he murmured, tilting his head at the flickering script. "So you did have something planned after all."
The system's elegant characters scrolled upward, line after line of data and numbers that danced like runes written by Heaven itself. His fingers flexed subconsciously, and the corners of his lips twitched into a half-smile—equal parts amusement and disbelief.
