Level: 33

Gallus is a highly skilled magic blacksmith, able to forge powerful and specialized equipment.

His craftsmanship is respected enough for him to be granted the title of honorary blacksmith, marking him as a master of his trade.

His signature extra skill is Divine Eye, an ability that allows him to perform appraisals on weapons without being hindered by concealment or hidden status effects.

Thanks to Divine Eye, he can perceive the true nature of items that would normally be obscured, including sealed or intelligent weapons.

Using this ability, Gallus recognizes Teacher as an Intelligence Weapon—a sentient, thinking weapon—despite any attempts to hide that nature.

This insight sets him apart from ordinary blacksmiths and appraisers, making him uniquely valuable and a little intimidating to those with secrets to hide.

Gallus is driven by strong curiosity, especially toward unusual weapons and rare materials.

It is this curiosity that leads him to speak to Fran and Teacher after sensing something special about Teacher.

Once he learns more about them, Gallus quickly grows fond of Fran and Teacher.

He shows a friendly, supportive attitude and treats them less like customers and more like favored juniors or protégés.

Because the original client for a set of custom equipment had died, Gallus is left with completed gear and no one to claim it.

Liking Fran and Teacher, he decides to sell this otherwise stranded equipment to them at a heavily discounted price, showing both generosity and a flexible, easygoing side.

Gallus is not just a merchant; he actively invests in Fran’s growth as an adventurer.

Using rare materials entrusted to him by Teacher, he forges a dedicated equipment set just for Fran.

This custom set is known as the Black Cat Series, tailored specifically to Fran’s needs and fighting style.

The Black Cat Series becomes Fran’s personal signature equipment, highlighting Gallus’s ability to combine function, aesthetics, and personal compatibility in his work.

His work on the Black Cat Series demonstrates his high level of magical craftsmanship.

He can handle rare materials, incorporate magical properties, and produce gear worthy of a main character’s exclusive use.

Gallus holds the title of Honorary Blacksmith, indicating formal recognition of his skills and contributions.

This title suggests he has a strong reputation in professional circles and likely has a long history of outstanding work behind him.

Within the world of Reincarnated as a Sword, Gallus fills the role of a reliable master craftsman and helpful elder figure.

Through his skills and his willingness to help, he significantly influences Fran and Teacher’s equipment and, by extension, their adventures.
