My Quiet Blacksmith Life in Another World, Book 2

By: Tamamaru

Narrated by: Greg Chun

Eizo Tanya is now living a quiet life as a blacksmith in another world. Well, maybe not so quiet...

Tales of his cheat-smithing abilities and overpowered blades have started to spread. Alongside his companions, Eizo tries to earn a modest living while avoiding political intrigue. However, intrigue finds him anyway when he saves Diana, the daughter of a comital family. With the nobility embroiled in conflict about the line of succession and the fate of a family heirloom, the safest place for Diana turns out to be with Eizo. As his family keeps growing, the quiet life becomes even more rare.

Speaking of rare, Eizo's next commission involves working with a prized fantasy metal—mithril! When an elven village requests that he repair their treasure, a mithril sword, Eizo is excited to take on the challenge. Will this blade be too much for a human blacksmith to handle? Eizo puts his cheats to the test, repairing both swords and societal conflicts, all in pursuit of his dream life!

Loved it

I liked the manga for a long time. The light novels were hard to find reliably so this was fantastic.

Good characters

Very repetitive about his cheats and talents. Does become boring after a while and makes the third book less desirable to read.

The awesome world building

The only thing to dislike is that the book isn't longer. can't wait to hear the other volumes.

good leason while on the road

more people for different voices would have made this 1000 times better and more enjoyable. saying that it was still excellent

Enjoyable story and slow world building

I enjoy that the Mc has realistic views and goals set and isn’t pulling some bs outa no where he understands that he doesn’t truly know what he’s doing only how to do it with muscle memory and the “cheats and code” of the magic system and knowledge
