A few days passed and it was time for the forging duel.

The Dwarven King hadn't held back at all when it came to preparing for this forging duel.

The location that he had found...was the stadium in the center of the capital.

This was the stadium that was used for the most important ceremonies of the Dwarven Kingdom, but now it was being used for a forging duel.

That was the power of the Dwarven King.

As long as he willed it, he could make almost anything happen in this kingdom.

When Drogath arrived, he had an ugly expression on his face.

After all, he never expected this matter to blow up this much.

But since it had reached this point, he had no choice but to face it.

At the center of the arena was his opponent waiting for him along with the Dwarven King.

Seeing the two of them, he couldn't help knitting his brows again.

But he still came up to them and said, "It seems like you really want to let the whole world see your loss. I guess it'll be a public execution then."

I wasn't triggered at all by these words and just calmly looked at him with a smile before saying, "Are you sure that you can still say those words when this is over?"

Drogath also didn't react since he knew that this was nothing more than an exchange of provocation.

The one who actually fell for it would be the loser and he wouldn't be the loser in this case.

So he just gave a snort and turned to look at the forges prepared.

As he looked at it, he couldn't help revealing a look of praise.

Even with his personality, the thing that came first was his identity as a dwarf and his identity as a blacksmith.

When he saw these fine furnaces that had been prepared, along with all of the tools that they needed, he couldn't help praising how well prepared they had been. After all, a lot of these tools were specialized tools that only masters would be able to use.

These were not tools that normal people would even touch.

As such, there weren't many such tools available in the first place.

There was only a small provider, so they were considered rare.

However, Drogath would never let the Dwarven King or this human know that.

So with a snort, he walked over to his own station.

I shook my head with a faint smile when I saw this as I couldn't help feeling that dwarves really were tsun tsun sometimes.

But then I looked at the Dwarven King and gave him a nod.

When the Dwarven King saw this, he couldn't help revealing a complicated look.

Casting a glance at Drogath with that complicated look, the Dwarven King gave a sigh as he returned that nod.

Receiving this nod, I turned and walked over to my station.

Following me was Ivar who had been waiting on the side. When he saw me walking over, he came to my side to walk with me.

Drogath had been preparing his things when he suddenly looked at me. He couldn't help revealing a surprised look when he saw Ivar with me before saying, "What are you doing? This is a forging duel, this is not a playdate! Are you bringing companions with you now?"

I just calmly looked at Drogath and said, "Since I cannot do the forging part myself, I have brought an assistant to help me. Or are you scared?"

"You can't forge?" Drogath slowly repeated before suddenly shouting, "Are you kidding me? If you can't forge, where do you get the nerve to challenge me to a forging duel? Are you crazy?"

I didn't flinch at all when I heard this.

I just said with a calm look, "I am not a blacksmith by trade, so I can't do the forging myself. I have brought an assistant to make up for this, is there a problem with that?"

"Do you even hear yourself? You're saying that you're challenging me to a forging duel without even being to forge yourself? Am I going crazy or is the world going crazy?" Drogath roared out.

Once again, I said with a calm expression, "My forging knowledge is far beyond what my skills are, so I've brought an assistant to help me. Or are you telling me that you're scared of a human?"noVe(Lb(1n

When his pride was provoked, Drogath completely lost it as he roared, "You dare say that I'm scared of a human? Do you really think that you threaten me in the slightest?"

I just gave a shrug as I said, "It seems that way."

Drogath looked like he wanted to explode, but he held himself back in the end and said with a snort, "Do whatever you want. But if he does more than the blacksmithing, I will not hesitate to call you out."

Once again, with a shrug, I said, "Do as you wish."

After he accepted Ivar, there was someone else that walked over to our group.

It was Moon.

When Drogath saw this, he couldn't help saying with a snort, "Are you telling me that an elf is going to help with the forging as well now?"

I shook my head and said, "She's my assistant for something else."

"Huh? So you're telling me that elves can forge now?" Drogath said with a snort.

I simply responded with a shrug before heading over to my furnace.

Drogath didn't make as much of a fuss this time and just focused on his own work.

That was what I had been targeting.

Since he had already accepted Ivar, I knew that it wouldn't be a problem for him to accept Moon as well.

That was why I had her come up after Ivar.

But it didn't take long before Drogath found something else to complain about.

It was while I was throwing metals into the furnace.

The way that I did it made it seem like I was just throwing random things into the furnace.

This made Drogath explode once more.

"What are you doing? Are you just playing around at this point?!"
