After Abel finished his knight training, Master Thorin’s voice erged from a side “Master Abel, you are such a hard worker!”
“I just have way too much free ti, so I need to move around for a bit!” Said Abel with a smile, putting away his sword.
At this mont, a servant dwarf walked in and bowed, “Master Thorin, there are guests outside for a visit!”
“Who got the news so quick?” Master Thorin asked the servant.
“Master Thorin, it was the tribe leaders of the Lester family and the Gerard family!” The servant replied.
“Master Abel, the Lester family, and the Gerard family are so of the biggest families in Miuah City. If you are here to stay, they can definitely help you!” Master Thorin explained after seeing the confused look on Abel’s face.
“Master Thorin, I don’t have ti to waste on stuff like this. I won’t see anyone here!” Abel knew what the noble circle was like. As soon as he started eting nobles like this, there would be countless waiting for him. And by then, he wouldn’t have any more free ti.
“Seed like Master Abel will not be staying at Miuah City for long. City Ruler Poford’s effort can all go to waste!” Master Thorin said with a big laugh.
“Yeah, I won’t be staying here. I have my own plan!” Said Abel with a smile.

“Actually Master Abel, you can stay with the dwarfs. As you can see, we are an accepting bunch. Both humans and elves live together with us peacefully in our cities. Your trouble in the human world is too big. Although the Blacksmith Union has spoken for you, it didn’t change their decision!” Master Thorin warned Abel in a soft tone.
“Master Thorin, I will go back to the human world one day. It’s just a matter of ti. For now, I will just focus on getting more powerful!” Abel said confidently.
“I won’t stop you then. You have your own plan, so there’s no need to bother with nobles like this. The real authority among the dwarfs are the Blacksmith Union, and we will definitely support you. The dwarf Wizard Union is different from the human Wizard Union. And the Wizard Union in the Kingdom of St Ellis doesn’t represent the entire Wizard Union anyway. You are loved by the dwarfs, even the Wizard dwarfs.” Said Master Thorin with a smile waving his hand.
By lunchti, Bartoli went to Liffey’s clothing store and took back the tailored suits. After Abel put the suit on, Bartoli looked at Abel with a noble gaze and began to complint Liffey’s tailoring. His suit was luxurious yet subtle, graceful yet mysterious.
Even Abel, who didn’t really have much understanding in fashion, could feel that this suit was neck to neck to those so-called tailoring masters back in the Duchy of Cal. No wonder why they said the elves naturally had good taste in beauty. It didn’t matter if it was architecture, fashion, or jewelry; they would all express their beauty to the pinnacle.
In the afternoon, 2 carriages set off from the hotel. One of them carried Master Thorin, Abel, and Bartoli. While the other one was carrying 3 barrels of Master Wine, it was Abel’s present for Master Robbin.
Still a distance away from reached Master Robbin Place, Abel could already hear the sounds of a hamr striking, furnace burning, and the sizzling of hot iron plunging in water. These familiar sounds put Abel in a nostalgic mood all of a sudden. It was like he had gone back to the days where he studied under Bentham.
The mont when they reached the door, a young dwarf in grey robe shouted, “Master Thorin!” Afterward, he imdiately ran back inside and kept shouting, “Master Thorin is here, Master Thorin is here!”
“Master Abel, this is Susie, teacher’s youngest disciple. Please forgive him!” Master Thorin was a little embarrassed by Susie’s behavior, he helplessly explained to Abel with a smile.
After a while, a muscular dwarf with a full face of white beard erged behind Susie and said with a burly voice, “Naughty boy, I told you many tis to not be crude. If you continue like this, you will never be a good Blacksmith!” However, Susie did not care; he kept making clown faces as he led the way.
“Master Abel, the teacher’s mood is a lot better these days. Before, he would have definitely used his hand on Susie up already!” Master Thorin tilted his head towards Abel and said.
“Thorin, you finally ca back to see your old man. I thought I have to wait till the master gathering to see you! said Master Robbin patting’s Master Thorin’s shoulder. He used quite a lot of force in that pat, almost as if he was striking iron.
“Teacher, you are too heavy-handed. Your bones are strong as ever! said Master Thorin as he kept retracting his shoulder.
“Haha, of course. I’m in my pri ti as a Blacksmith now. I will never stop until I’ve made so legendary gear!” Said Master Robbin with a big laugh.
After Master Robbin recovered from his excitent, he noticed Abel and Bartoli standing by a side “These two are?”
“I am Bentham’s disciple; my na is Abel Harry. I’ve co to visit you on behalf of Master Bentham!” Said Abel with a bow.
After Master Robbin heard the na Bentham, he couldn’t help but shook his head, “Bentham is not really a master. He is my hardest working disciple out of the bunch. It’s a sha he is not gifted enough. Only his friends call him master; he doesn’t really represent the word!”
If another person had said this, Abel would beat him up. However, this old dwarf in front of him had the right to say so. Both Master Bentham and his own forgery skills originated from this old dwarf.
“Yeah, your na is Abel Harry!” Suddenly, sothing struck Master Robbin’s mind. He was surprised and said, “Master Abel?”
Master Robbin then turned to Master Thorin. Master Thorin nodded, and Master Robbin burst into a big laugh, “Co in! Thorin, why didn’t you tell Master Abel was coming!”
“Master Robbin, you can just call Abel. I’m basically your disciple as well!” Abel let Master Robbin lead the way and said.
“Don’t worry about Bentham; we are all fellow Blacksmiths. According to the Blacksmith Union’s tradition, as long as you are not related, all Masters should be treated equally!” Said Master Robbin as he led them into the courtyard. He was so happy when he heard Abel’s words. No matter what, this already showed that Abel was a mber of his school of forgery.
“Master Robbin. This is my steward, Bartoli, and those are so little gifts I brought you!” After Abel introduced Bartoli, he pointed at the 3 barrels of master wine on the back carriage.
Master Robbin’s eyes began to sparkle. Abel, among the dwarfs, was a wine master. All of the elite dwarfs went crazy for his wine. Although Master Robbin hadn’t tried it before, he was well aware of its imnse popularity. Now, he was filled with excitent.
“Little guys, stop what you are doing and co here!” Master Robbin shouted at the courtyard. The dwarfs working in the outdoor Blacksmith Guide stopped their work in hand. They knew fully well that Master Robbin would tell them to stop unless sothing important happened.
“It’s your lucky day. There are 2 masters here today for a visit. One is the Master Thorin, you are all familiar with, and the other is Master Abel!” Said Master Robbin.
Master Thorin would co here for a visit once every few years, so he was a regular here. However, Master Abel was also the so-called most potential Grand Master, so those few Blacksmith dwarfs now had their gaze fixed on this similar age human.
“What are you guys waiting for? Quickly get those 3 barrels of wine to my room!” Master Robbin shouted again.
Seed like that was the only reason Master Robbin had asked his disciples to stop their work. As he was leading the three of them into the living room, he looked back carefully and shouted once more, “make sure all of you are careful with it. If any of you damage it, I’ll skin that person alive!”
