At dinner, on the table.

"Brother, how about opening today, how much will it be sold?" asked Ellie, who had been helping her mother make leather armor for the past few days.

Her words immediately attracted everyone's attention, Xia Rui and the fortress had not returned, they were embarrassed to ask, Mondello had been surrounded by people and kept displaying, as for Aina and Iron Man, since they only came in the afternoon, they naturally didn't know how they were selling, so these people all looked at Ota curiously.

Orta smiled and said, "It's not much for sale, only two silver coins." ”

"So little?" exclaimed Ellie, disappointed, "Iron Man's fish shop is open, and it sells thirty-seven silver coins." ”

Everyone was afraid of damaging Ota's confidence, and they all ate in silence and did not speak

Xia Rui hurriedly relieved the siege for Ota and said: "This season is not the time for hunting, so it is understandable that there is no need for equipment, and besides, we will receive an order for metal prostheses in a few days, although the profit is small but the quantity is large, it can also make money, Ota don't be discouraged." ”

With a sigh of hum, Ota continued: "I haven't finished talking about it just now, although I only sold two silver coins, I received an order for three gold coins. ”

"Three gold coins, so many?" everyone was stunned for a moment and then surprised.

Ota nodded: "Yes, they are all ordered by those scattered disabled sergeants, they see hope from metal prosthetics, so they order weapons and equipment again, and want to go to the dense forest outside the city to fight some beasts to improve their lives in a few days, and at the same time they can familiarize themselves with the use of prosthetics, and I also gave them a seven-fold discount, after all, these people are admirable veterans." ”

"Yes, these veterans are knights who have given their blood and lives to the Terrans, and it is a good deed to give them preferential treatment, and I approve of it. Xia Rui nodded immediately.

Mondello nodded his head as well: "Yes, I can see them reinvigorate." I was also very happy, because before this I was also depressed and decadent, thinking that I would never be able to go to war again in my life, and that I would have to live on handouts and handouts from others. So I understand how they are feeling at the moment. Ota, although I don't know them, at this moment, I want to say to you on behalf of these disabled brothers, thank you. ”

"Don't. Don't, this thank you is too heavy......" Ota quickly replied politely.

The fortress also said: "It is not an exaggeration to say that this thing created by Orta is immeasurably meritorious, and this great gift has greatly increased the political achievements of Duke Hans, so it is not an exaggeration for him to apply for a marquis for Orta, right, big brother." ”

Xia Rui nodded, "That's really the case, I'll mention it when I visit him another day." ”

"Forget it, big brother," Orta said after a moment of contemplation, "It's just part of the deal, and besides, you saw it today, without this achievement to help him." Duke Hans wouldn't speak for us in front of Kerry, for if he did, he would think we were blackmailing, or that it would be bad for us to get an inch. ”

Xia Rui thought about it and said, "Let's wait a little bit in advance, but if I don't make some benefits for my brother, this is not my character, don't you say?"

"Okay, you're the big brother, you're in charge. Ota could only nod in agreement.

"Well, come, let's celebrate the opening of the Orta Forge Shop. Good things continue to be done, but there is also a lot of money to be made......" Xia Rui raised his glass.

"Cheers. ”

......

Back in the room, Ota carefully revisited and analyzed the scene that had happened this morning.

Duke Hans tested himself again and again, especially after seeing the power of the Orb Greatsword. His usually deep face couldn't help but show joy. And in his later words, he has clearly reminded himself that this is what he wants most, or rather, what the third prince must get.

Kerry's attitude is also very clear, the purpose of taking himself away is to hand over the forging technique to the royal family. There is also the method of making magic bead weapons, but whether the royal family he is talking about is a real royal family or a certain prince, it is unknown to Otta.

As for Master Ghuran, he just came to take a picture, although he also has the title of Marquis and Vice Dean, but at the critical moment, Hans and Kerry will not take him seriously.

Thinking of this, Ota was somewhat helpless. In fact, he didn't have much pursuit, he just wanted his family to live in peace, but since he inadvertently absorbed the soul of the witch, everything has changed.

There has been a change in the body, and I always feel that there is a terrible devil hidden in the body, and I don't know when it will explode. followed Leo to learn blacksmithing, but he was involved in a case thirty years ago, so that Leo disappeared and he was closely watched by many forces. He wants to make a living, but he gets the secret of forging from an alien dwarf in a portrait, and he is involved in the royal family's pursuit of the remnants of the Holy See for a hundred years.

If any of these things are exposed, he will not escape the fate of being hunted down, and Ota only has one feeling at this time, that is, he seems to be being pulled by an unknown force, leading him to a mysterious path.

......

Early the next morning, orders from the Forging Association arrived, with detailed dimensions on each page of the registration form, and a thick stack of more than 400 sheets, representing more than 400 forging tasks.

Orta assigned the task to the sergeants in charge of roughening the iron ore into iron blocks, and the refining was done by seven apprentices, who had already passed the examination and had the title of blacksmith, and could barely refine under the guidance of Orta, but the speed needed to be improved.

In the secret room of the Ota forging shop, Ota wore a sleeveless shirt and a leather apron, and was nervously busy in front of the forging furnace, receiving more than 400 orders at once, delivering 150 pieces every ten days, and completing them all within a month, with an average of 15 pieces per day.

Earlier, Yuna and Elle took care of the business, Mondello played the role of a showman, and five sergeants were in charge of guarding and carrying them, and in this way, the Orta Forge was up and running.

Three days later, on the morning of the east gate of the city-state, there were more than a dozen people riding war horses, these people wore armor and black robes, and sat quietly behind the Marquis of Kerry, as if waiting for someone.

After a short time, a team of knights in the same costume galloped forward, and at the front was an old man with a thin face. Eagle eyes and thin lips, with a somewhat similar feeling to Carrey.

"Father. Kerry greeted him.

......

Mountainside, in the middle of a white castle.

Back at the castle, Duke Henry leaned comfortably back on the sofa behind him. Kerry was pinching his shoulder, looking like a dutiful son.

"Has anything happened in the city of Kurgea in the past month or so?" asked Henry, with his eyes closed, enjoying the pleasure of this kind of human affection.

Kerry hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, I feel that Uncle Hans has sensed something. He obviously has a different attitude towards a person, and I feel that he values him very much, and this person has a lot of doubts. ”

Henry opened his eyes suddenly, "Someone, come and sit down, speak carefully." ”

Kerry walked to his father's side and began to speak, "This man's name is Ota, and he is very young, only seventeen years old......

More than half an hour later, I heard Henry ask, "So, the Night One has been folded inside?"

"Yes Father, they should be locked up somewhere in seclusion. And since then, they have not been able to install people, their vigilance is very high, even the forging apprentices recruited a few days ago were improvised, and they did not leave us the time to arrange. ”

Henry nodded, "If you don't do anything bad, you're not afraid of ghosts calling the door, so cautious the more it means that they have a problem." ”

Carey: "I think so too, but now that Hans is defending him, I can't do anything about it. ”

"And what about your eyes in the Consulate, what's the news?"

Kerry shook his head and said, "I've seen him twice before but I didn't pay much attention to him. Later, when Ota went to the nobles to make a lot of noise, and talked to Hans for an afternoon, she felt something unusual......"

Henry stopped him with a wave of his hand and asked, "Have you been there twice before?" ”

"It's... It's like going to the library. Kerry replied uncertainly.

Henry stood up and walked around. "Library? A seventeen-year-old boy from the countryside, what is he doing in the library, is he going to consult something?"

Kerry's eyes lit up, and he seemed to notice something when he was reminded.

Henry continued: "Also, he went to the library twice before he went to meet Hans, who had the nickname 'The Fox'. With Hans's cunning, he wouldn't make a deal with people easily, but Ota negotiated with him, the kind of metal prosthetics you mentioned, right?"

"Yes father, the message from the 'Eye' is this. ”

Henry nodded, "This thing has never appeared before, but I have the impression that I have seen such a picture in a book of dwarven alien materials, and there is another passage that I remember deeply." ”

"Father, you said. Kerry also asked curiously.

Henry thought back for a moment and said slowly, "The greatness of God lies in the fact that He has given us sound limbs so that we can get back on our feet and continue to fight. ”

Carey repeated thoughtfully, "The greatness of God...... Let's stand up again......" At this point, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at his father and said excitedly: "Stand again...... This is the skill of the dwarves?!"

Henry nodded.

"Then we're going to get him now......" Kerry jumped impatiently.

"No," Henry continued, stopping him, "don't do anything until you have solid evidence to prove his crimes, or that will startle you." ”

"Father means ......"

"Yes, Hans is the snake, and that Ota is just a small man, and he can be killed without even proof on a worthless day. But Hans is different, although he is not the right-hand man of the third prince, but he is also his right-hand man. ”

Kerry nodded as if he had realized, "Then what does Father mean that the closer they are, the better?"

Henry nodded with satisfaction to Kerry: "Yes, when they become grasshoppers on a rope, we will make a fuss about the secret art of the dwarves of the Orta Society, and it would be better if we could find out that he has a secret book of the alien race." And Hans's crime is to collude with the descendants of the dwarves, win over disabled veterans to oppose the royal family, and even secretly support the establishment of a theocratic papacy, so that not only will he never turn over, but even the succession of the three princes will be deprived. ”

Carey looked at his father and whispered, "Uncle Hans is your sworn brother, do this..."

Henry said expressionlessly: "We used to be brothers, but since I swore allegiance to the eldest prince, and he was loyal to the third prince, it was doomed to the end of our future hostility, in fact, he also knew it in his heart, but none of us said it." ”

Carrey was about to say anything more, but was stopped by Henry with a wave of his hand.

"Okay, I'm tired and need to take a break, remember that what you have to do now is keep an eye on that Horta, and I need to know what he did in the library and what materials he checked, and give me a careful look. ”

"Yes, father. Kerry watched his father turn away and sat down on the couch in thought.
