"Of course...... I won't stop you if you want to kill yourself, but ......" Navis hooked his lips and smiled as if he were smiling, "Do you dare?" ”

"I ......" Benjamin was silent for a moment, the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang", and he himself knelt down at the same time, his head drooping as if he had tasted despair.

He really didn't dare, even if he had the consciousness of fighting to the death for the glory of his family, but ...... Suicide, this kind of nested death will not be recognized under any circumstances. And he understands: if you commit suicide now, then ...... When the news reaches the family, his name will also be completely removed at that moment.

"Winner, Navis Fox."

After saying this sentence expressionlessly, Angelo left the dueling arena directly, and Xiao Yueluo, who was watching the seat, saw that her eyes sank slightly, and then subconsciously turned her head, but there was no trace of another person in the place where she was originally sitting.

"Congratulations."

A few minutes later, Xiao Yueluo looked at the person who was waving towards her, and couldn't help but hook her lips, and the obscure tone made Navis stiff: "Ahem, congratulations don't need it, it's not something to be proud of." ”

In fact, it is not the first time he has done something similar, but due to the proper secrecy, in addition to the parties involved, only their own families know about these things.

"That's not going to work." Xiao Yueluo said faintly, looking at Navis's face with a smile for a while before moving to the arena again, "What should he do?" I think you've already thought about it. ”

With a meaningful look in his eyes, as if to say: If you dare to deal with it casually, I will kill you.

"Ahem, don't worry, the Ackerman family won't do anything."

Navis was a little speechless, he really couldn't understand why Yueluo was worried about this, as for Xiaoyueluo, after hearing Navis's words, she shook her head lightly and said, "It's not that I'm worried, I just don't want to get involved in unnecessary trouble." ”

"Okay, looking at you like this, I also know that you don't like trouble, but Xiao Yueluo, have you ever thought that since you chose to cooperate with Your Highness, this kind of trouble is already unavoidable for you." Navis said, In fact, it was the first time he had talked to others about this, and he couldn't take care of all the details, so he could only choose to spread the inevitable result in front of Xiao Yueluo. Maybe doing so will cause dissatisfaction among the people in front of him, but he doesn't believe it, he doesn't believe that his actions can't be understood by Xiao Yueluo.

"Of course I know this, but ......" Xiao Yueluo looked up at the sky and said lightly, as if the feeling she gave Navis before was just an illusion, "I still have a lot of things to do now, and I can't waste my energy on these things that shouldn't have much intersection with me." ”

Xiao Yueluo closed her eyes slightly, and then opened them again. Navis found that the blue-white eyes were as if they were covered with a veil at this moment.

"You...... Don't worry, I'm here to promise: as long as it's not necessary, it won't affect you, and if there's anything you want to do, then ...... Then do your best, I think even Your Highness should support you. Navis pondered, trying to make his way of speaking as clear as possible.

"Alright, I'll look forward to it first."

Xiao Yueluo sorted out her emotions for a moment, and then patted Navis on the shoulder with a smile, but Navis felt that her bones fell apart for a moment: "Ahem, I said you, shoot it, what are you doing with so much effort?" ”

"Uh...... I'm sorry. ”

Navis's uncomfortable appearance made Xiao Yueluo a little embarrassed and at a loss, and she didn't even know where to put her raised right hand.

"Forget it, let's go to the blacksmith shop first, but now it's past the agreed time, so ...... You have to be mentally prepared. ”

"That guy is weird?" Noticing the embarrassment on Navis's face, Xiao Yueluo couldn't help but be a little curious, it was the first time she had seen this kind of expression on this face.

"Well, a weirdo indeed." Navis sighed a little helplessly, and then continued, "Actually, technically, this man can be said to be the best in the whole king, but his rules for making weapons ...... It's a bit hard to put into words. ”

Navis grumbled as he left the viewing seat with Xiao Yueluo, but what they didn't notice was that Benjamin, who was kneeling in the middle of the arena, disappeared completely, leaving only the long sword and scabbard that had been thrown to the ground......

"Do not customize weapons in batches, do not work for the nobility, and do not accept any form of military requisition......"

After a while, the two of them stood at the door of the blacksmith shop, and Xiao Yueluo counted her fingers one after another counting the so-called knowledge that Navis had just given him: "Does this person have an enmity with the powerful?" How do I feel that his rules are the same as those of the nobles. ”

Xiao Yueluo was a little stunned, it wasn't that she was guessing at random, but that basically every one of the items listed by Navis was clearly telling others this.

"Who knows? Anyway, I only know that this guy suddenly appeared in the royal capital three months ago, and then on the day the blacksmith shop opened, he made these rules directly into a banner and hung it in the main hall. Navis spread his hands, his face full of oddities.

"This is really ......" Xiao Yueluo twitched the corners of her mouth, she didn't know how to evaluate this behavior now, you said that you spread the blacksmith to the royal capital full of nobles, and as a result, you also posted a note that you do not serve the nobles, this can no longer be described as bad, naked provocation.

"Didn't the nobles in the city come to find trouble?"

Xiao Yueluo is a little strange, it stands to reason that this kind of behavior specifically aimed at the nobles, it is already good not to be killed by the nobles, and now it can actually open the store for three consecutive months without closing down, and even presenting a thriving scene, which can no longer be counted as a miracle.

Looking at the people coming and going at the door, dressed in different ways, Xiao Yueluo couldn't help but wonder if those nobles had changed their sex, or their brains were caught by the door, otherwise judging from the appearance of Benjamin today, it would be impossible for this blacksmith shop to exist for so long for no reason.

"Don't look at me like this, even if you threaten me, it's useless, I don't know, I don't know." Navis was a little helpless, and it would be strange if he couldn't see the meaning in Xiao Yueluo's bright eyes, "Forget it, if you really want to know, you can ask yourself when you see someone later, anyway, I can only tell you that this blacksmith shop is not simple." ”

"......" nonsense, she can also see that it is not simple, well, if it is simple, it is impossible to drive.

Rolling her eyes at the person next to her, Xiao Yueluo didn't even remind Navis and went straight into the blacksmith shop. Immediately after him, Navis was stunned for a moment and then Shi Shiran followed.

In-store

Due to the people coming and going at the door before, Xiao Yueluo thought that she would see a noisy scene, but she didn't want the blacksmith shop to be much quieter than she imagined, although there were many people in the shop. Except for the sound of striking iron coming from the inner room, none of the rest of the people who stayed in the shop spoke loudly.

Noticing this, Xiao Yueluo's interest in her heart was also completely hooked, and she really wanted to see what kind of person this person was who was opposed to the aristocracy. Of course, even if she had expectations in her heart, Xiao Yueluo did not do anything reckless to disturb others.

Taking advantage of the fact that she didn't see anyone, Xiao Yueluo also began to carefully examine the furnishings in the blacksmith shop. First of all, the first thing that came into view was a large counter, there were several notebooks scattered on the counter, and there were a few people standing on the edge of the counter who didn't know what they were filling in.

Immediately after a slight glance, Xiao Yueluo saw the flag that Navis had said, the flag was bright red, and it was hung on the side of the counter. The two big characters "Quiet" occupy about one-third of the entire banner, and the rest are more than a dozen lines of small characters, Xiao Yueluo looked at it, and the content was roughly written as the rules that Navis said on the road before.

Then there are the armor and weapons hanging on the walls, of course, these Xiao Yueluo only glanced at it cursoly, there are long swords, daggers, scimitars, spears...... It can be said that the variety of weapons is very complete.

As for the overall layout, it took Xiao Yueluo some time to think about it, and in this regard, it was roughly the same as the blacksmith shops in other places, but ...... If that's all there is to it, then I'm a little sorry for the special name of this smithy.

The gaze kept bouncing back and forth in the room, except for the number of customers who continued to decrease over time, Xiao Yueluo really didn't find anything special, or ...... Is this really just an ordinary blacksmith shop?

As soon as the thought in her mind appeared, Xiao Yueluo denied it with a smile.

How can it be ordinary? You must know that the mere refusal to accept the service of the nobility is already very unusual.

The more she thought about it, the more curious Xiao Yueluo became about the person she was going to meet, and she didn't know if it was an illusion, she had an inexplicable familiarity with this blacksmith shop, as if she had seen it before.

"What are you thinking?"

A voice from behind her interrupted her deep thoughts, and Xiao Yueluo turned her head to see Navis with a smile on her face.

"Nothing." Xiao Yueluo shook her head to dispel the doubts in her heart, and then as if she remembered something, she raised her eyes to look at Navis and said, "Where have you been?" Why didn't I see you all this time? ”

"I saw an acquaintance, said hello to him, and talked about something by the way."

"Acquaintances?" Xiao Yueluo looked behind Navis with some confusion, but there were only two or three mercenaries with weapons on their backs.

"Ahem, he's not here right now."

Xiao Yueluo's suspicious eyes made Navis cough lightly in embarrassment, although he said the truth, but Navis's appearance made people feel that there was a big problem.
