chapter 90
Episode 90. Everyone makes mistakes (2)
A shape-memory alloy technique needed to make portable weapons. It is a special technology possessed only by the Empire on this vast continent.
Now Sefi will have it too.
thanks to whom? Thanks to me, Keter!
It would be great if Sephira recognized that and praised me, but life isn’t that easy. People know that if goodwill continues, it is a right.
Who guarantees that it won’t happen to me that a hound that caught a rabbit is boiled?
So, you need a safety device. In preparation for Sephira changing her words, to block the fundamental tosagupaeng.
The old dwarf’s face is wrinkled. It’s not that I didn’t understand the words. It seems like a reaction that came out because I understood.
I would hate it. From the old man’s point of view, it would look like I don’t believe in Sephira.
Oh, you can’t believe it.
“Are you upset? Don’t hate it.”
I have nothing to regret. It’s true that it’s good if Sephira has portable weapon technology, but that technology doesn’t have to be Sephira’s.
Elves and dwarves are rare, but if you’re looking for them, there’s nothing you can’t find.
Even if it’s a little cumbersome, it’s enough if I make a contract with another dwarf to learn shape memory alloy technology, and make it in the form of ‘supplying’ bows and arrows to Sephira.
It’s a bit of a hassle to defend my rights, I can take it.
“You are stricter than elves and more greedy than dwarves. I am worried about the future of Sephira.”
“The fact that Sephira is going to ruin is not greedy or picky.”
“Sheesh, not trying to lose a word. I get it. As long as I can learn the shape-memory alloy technique, the right to the technique belongs to you. The ownership of the portable armament I made is also yours. Then, Sephira paid for it and bought it, is this it?”
“Dwarf old man. Are you trying to trash me? No money is taken. However, let’s do it by lending it.”
“I’ll lend you… … ?”
While pondering what the old dwarf meant, Luke intervened. He’s been glaring at me since before, but he doesn’t seem to like something.
“Keter. The mansion you live in, food, and servants all belong to Sephira. Sephira didn’t ask you for money. But are you planning to claim the right to technology from Sephira?”
Are there any stupid words like this in the world?
Luke, looking at you reminds me of the causality my godfather said. This is obviously luck. Otherwise, it cannot be explained.
Because of my father’s choice, you became my partner. However, he was the son of old man Zach, and he even had a mouth-watering ability.
If I hadn’t had one of these three things, I wouldn’t have kept you by my side, and I wouldn’t have responded to every stupid sound.
But, is this a good causal rate or a bad causal rate? Anyway, answer the bullsh*t.
“The right I enjoy is not Sephira’s favor, but a noble’s. The rights of the nobility were not made by Sephira, but the laws of this world and the kingdom. Little boy, did you ever think that Sephira fed you? It’s the taxes of this country that feed you. You are just a knight belonging to Sephira.”
“… … !”
“So you are a kid. Just because you hate it doesn’t make it logical. Is there power without logic? Are you sure you can beat me?”
I’m not denying or affirming and I’m keeping my mouth shut, but I’m sure I’m thinking about it inside. I can’t win, but I don’t think I’m going to lose unilaterally.
After all, people with good bloodline know that they are the best if you give them a little praise. He let go of old man Zach’s son too much.
“It was the fourth lesson. If you don’t have logic, have power. No matter what bullsh*t you say, it will be the right answer.”
“Why are you so strict? Sephira is your family. It’s your hometown, it’s your home. It’s okay to be a little biased.”
Luke, who would normally have just shut up and backed down, today, for some reason, doesn’t back down.
hahahaha, you’re doing great don’t back down Whoever your opponent is, don’t be discouraged. Even if the other person says something right, carry through your will.
Don’t live according to the world. It’s about making the world fit for you.
“That is your opinion. it’s not my opinion To me, family is family, and I am me. If you don’t like me like this, what should you do? you can leave my side It’s easy. do you want to change me Then you have to be stronger than me. It is impossible.”
“I don’t think it’s impossible.”
right! I snapped my fingers.
“It’s good confidence.”
I looked away from Luke. So, what are you going to do? Are you going to give it a shot? In the presence of old Vulcanus, in front of countless blacksmiths. Can you show me ignoring the gaze of others?
Then Luke took a step back. Oh, isn’t that tidy? sorry
“Inspired. Can you give me more time?”
“no. understood. you… … .”
Vulcanus stopped talking and took a step closer to me as if whispering.
“You must be thinking about being betrayed by Sephira.”
“Let’s just say that.”
“Basil is not that kind of person, but… you don’t know basil So I understand.”
Vulcanus brought out his hammer and said.
“I swear by the blacksmith’s soul. The right to use the shape memory alloy technique I learned about is Keter. it’s on you I will notify Basil as well. Portable arms are lent in Keter’s name, and can be retrieved and destroyed accordingly.”
“Perfect.”
“Ask me one last time. If we continue like this, things will fall apart with Basil. If others find out the whole story, they won’t see you well. Does it matter anyway?”
“The time has passed for me to care how others see me.”
“A kid less than 20 years old is so good at saying that. Hot hot hot!”
“This is all yours now.”
I put down all the magic tools and portable weapons I got from the Birangs and from Liqueur.
“How long does it take to analyze technology?”
“Wait a minute.”
Old Man Vulcan took a look at the portable weapons and said confidently.
“Everything is in good condition. In particular, there is no security system that destroys the structure or technique even if the arms of the Birang tribe are dismantled as expected. It is unfortunate that there is no bow among portable weapons, but since there is a crossbow, it should not be difficult to understand the principle.”
“one week?”
“Even if you bring ten dwarf technicians, you won’t be able to do it that fast. This isn’t even my area of expertise. Three months just to disassemble and analyze. It takes a month to make a prototype.”
“Isn’t it because of a lack of experts or supplies?”
“It is an area that is impossible for the human body. Bringing in a veteran dwarf blacksmith can shorten the time. There is no material effect. As for mass production, there are enough materials to make prototypes.”
It would have been nice to show him a sample of portable weapons at the Southern Sword Competition, but it seems impossible.
If you press it, something similar will come out, but you can’t do it because you don’t show it.
“I’m assuming you’ll receive a prototype after the Southern Sword Tournament is over.”
“huh? Are you participating in the Southern Sword Tournament, Keter? As far as I know, I heard that the number of participants has been decided.”
“We participate separately. But why?”
“Basil requested the production of blue-gangstone arrows to be given to those who participate in the tournament. I asked for 120 rounds to be produced, but I don’t think that number includes yours.”
blue stone. Although its strength is lower than that of steel, it is a rare mineral with good aura injection efficiency.
Its mana adaptability is also excellent, so it is mainly used for making magic tools, so it is expensive enough to approach Amantir.
If only the arrowhead was azure stone, 8 gold per shot. If even the arrow shaft was made of blue-gangstone, it would be an insane price of 15 gold per shot. It is said that 15 gold, the salary of a soldier, flies with every arrow.
It’s a big decision that’s not like a father. Up until now, even if he paid close attention to the quality of his arrows, he had never felt that it depended on the performance of his arrows.
That must mean that the father is sincere. To this Southern Sword Tournament.
If it’s 120 rounds, it would mean that it won’t be given to me, as Vulcan’s inspiration said. Archers usually carry 30 arrows. Thirty arrows are like a symbol of good luck for archers. I wouldn’t bother dividing this into 20 rounds.
“Basil is also old, so he might have forgotten about you. Since you’re participating in the tournament, can I make your share of blue-gangstone arrows?”
The corner of the old man’s mouth twitched. I wonder how I will react after being discriminated against, but I am not interested in the slightest bit.
“Do whatever you want.”
No matter what others do, as long as they don’t harm me, that’s it.
* * *
The entrance to the forge is cluttered. It was because a group of knights were standing blocking the entrance.
At the head of the knights was the Galactic Division 4th squad leader, Gant. Having received a report that Keter had entered the smithy, he was waiting with the entrance of the smithy blocked.
Even the knights brought by Gant were all members of the Galactic Knights, the strongest power of the family.
“Brother Keter. You can’t run away like last time.”
At Gant’s majestic words, Keter let out a deep sigh.
“I would have made it clear. Even if you are not in a hurry, I will find you on my own, so wait.”
At the height of the knight’s power, he mobilized five galactic knights. Just to block Keter’s way.
Sensing that the eyes around him were not good, Gant frowned. In my mind, I want to shout at Keter. Aren’t you the one who made it this far?
But Leganon had requested it. The moment the galactic knight is already privately mobilized, pointing fingers is inevitable. In that situation, if the conversation with Keter gets longer, we’re the only ones who lose, so we should avoid that much.
“Even though you are a member of Sephira, how can you refuse the invitation of Elder Leganon, the head of the family? Please stop the act of breaking down the hierarchy.”
“Doesn’t it look like you’re burning your poop strings? Shall I go or not? go or not?”
cringe
Gant clenched his molars. I wanted to punch Keter in the face, her shoulders twitching.
However, knowing that this was Keter’s goal, he held on tightly to his chest and endured it.
“Elder Leganon asked for it. Are you still going to refuse the invitation?”
Elder’s request.
Even the head of household has a ripple effect that cannot be ignored. The onlookers also began whispering, ‘I don’t know what’s going on, but shouldn’t I go if you’re asking?’
Gant smiled in repentance.
‘Public opinion was on my side. If you refuse here, Keter, I will have a reason to subdue you with force.’
It was a foolish idea. What Keter judged would be swayed by ‘public opinion’.
“If it’s the elder’s request, of course I’ll go. By the way.”
Ruinous words spilled from Keter’s mouth as she placed her finger on her chin.
“Can you call the one who stuck with Vident an elder?”
“… … .”
“… … ?”
Even the blacksmiths, who were working diligently in the midst of the turmoil, stopped their hands.
There was a terrible silence in the forge where hundreds of people had gathered. Everyone doubted their ears. What did Keter say?
Kindly, Keter spoke again.
“I’ll listen to the elder’s words, but don’t you need to listen to the traitor’s words?”
“Hey, hey!”
The moment Keter called Leganon a traitor, Gant’s sanity was blown away. I made a mistake that I would never have done if I was a normal person.
He should have calmly treated Keter as a lunatic. But he couldn’t stand it, and he shot an arrow like lightning. An arrow filled with rage was fired at Keter with a piercing blast.
It was like admitting it. That what Keter said is true.
It’s just that those who watched didn’t say anything, but their heads were already filled with one thought.
‘Why does Lord Gant attack Master Keter? Did Elder Leganon really work with Vident?’
Even Gant, who had shot the arrow, wanted to die, but it was too late. I couldn’t control the arrows fired.
‘This, this. If Keter dies, it will be like I am acknowledging his words.’
Gant fired an arrow again.
The 6th expression of the zodiacal sign, the Yacha Palace.
The fastest arrow that rotates in a spiral is fired.
That arrow was more than five times faster than Gant’s first arrow. The intention was to shoot down the arrow that had already been shot with the second arrow, but it was futile.
In Keter’s left hand, he gripped the jet-black bow, Amaranth. Auror’s arrow is caught in the demonstration. Keter pulls and releases the string.
At that moment, the arrow shot by Gant was right in front of Keter’s bow.
Quadduk!
The Aura Arrow shot by Keter pulverized Gant’s first arrow from the front, and then collided with the second arrow that followed it all the way to the back.
Pacan!
Keter’s aura arrow and Gant’s arrow exploded as they collided in the air. People covered their eyes and flinched at the shockwave.
Keter licked her lips with her tongue as she ran through her flowing hair.
“Is it my turn now?”
Amaranth’s demonstration caught the arrow of darkness, magic bullet.
