"Knock knock."

The emir knocked on Frazi's door several times, but no one answered for a long time.

After a while, he suddenly noticed that Frazi's door was unguarded.

In other words, when Frazi was resting in his bedroom, he would always arrange for a reliable servant to guard the door, both for his own safety and to help pass the word when something happened.

"Isn't it there?"

The emir suddenly wondered, why couldn't he see anyone when he had said he wanted to talk to him?

However, he thought of a possibility, could it be that Ernst said polite words, he really believed it, and then Frazi couldn't wait for him for a long time, so he got angry and didn't want to see him.

In fact, before coming here, Emir was speculating about the reason why Frazi talked to him, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of the only possibility that his robbery of the family business was revealed, and Frazi wanted to ask him for guilt.

But he never thought that this matter would be revealed, obviously he had done it seamlessly, so he had to think of other possibilities, maybe just a greeting, after all, he has been working hard to forge these days, as the head of the family, it is understandable to care more and encourage the juniors.

So, based on this speculation, he came up with a large part of the rhetoric to deal with Frazi, which was kind of ready.

Then the next thing is to find Frazzi, after all, Ernst didn't say that the head of the house was in the room, in order to confirm this, he used his magic perception, and sure enough, he found no trace of the head of the house.

Next, he planned to go to the forge to take a look, although the family had not received a commission for the time being, but Frazi, who had nothing to do, could only appear there.

But just as he was about to leave, a dark shadow approached him behind him.

"Who's ......"

Before the emir could speak, the man spoke.

"Hello, Lord Emir, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and the head of the family asked me to take you to the forge workshop."

Emir turned his head and looked at the servant in front of him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Haha, no need, I'll go by myself."

"......," the servant immediately looked embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "But, however, the head of the family has said that I must be with you, so you better cooperate with it, and don't let the little one be embarrassed." ”

“…… Oh? That's right. ”

The emir could naturally understand the meaning of this, that is, the summons of Frazi was mandatory, and looking at this battle, it was definitely not as simple as greeting him.

"Let's go, this way, please." The servant made a gesture of please.

The emir had no choice but to do so, and he had to admit that his affairs were likely to be revealed, and that he had no idea what Vlazi was going to do to him next.

However, there is no need for him to be timid, and even if he makes his words clear, what can Vrazzi do? It's a big deal to tear his face and fight, but he won't be afraid.

So, with a mentality that he couldn't hide it, he didn't even want to write it this time, and directly quickened his pace, but the servant who led the way followed behind and panted.

A few minutes later, the emir pushed open the door of the forge and there was a burst of heat from inside, the heat of several furnaces burning at the same time.

The next thing that caught my eye was dozens of forgers sweating profusely, including Frazi, of course, who was the hardest working.

To tell the truth, the Emir had not seen this battle since he had come here, and it was more lively than it had been when he had commissioned an expedited order that day.

Seeing him look surprised at the sight of his face, the servant breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked over slowly to inform Frazi.

However, Frazi only glanced at the Emir and proceeded with the blacksmithing, apparently intending to dry the Emir for a while.

"Hehe, that's exactly what happened." The emir smiled wryly, and then simply found a chair and sat down.

Since the other party is not in a hurry, there is no need for him to be in a hurry, otherwise it will seem that he is ashamed in his heart.

Of course, he was not idle during this time, but secretly observed those who were doing the forging, some familiar faces, some strangers, and it seemed that he had called back the clansmen who had participated in the army.

But what is it all about? In order to show the strength of the Stuart family, let him open his eyes, and then feel that he is not capable of fighting against such a family?

However, whatever Frazi's purpose, the Emir remained calm, for ever since the Celestials praised his forging results, he felt that he was indeed a genius at blacksmithing, even surpassing Frazi.

After a while, it was already dark outside, and the blacksmiths were almost exhausted.

Frazi hurriedly told them to go back to rest and have dinner together after washing up.

After explaining this, he did not care about the exhaustion of his body, and came to sit down in front of the emir.

"My lord, what did you call me for? And seeing how busy you guys are, why don't you let me help? ”

"Hehe, it's just a trivial matter, where do you have to bother our genius, take a little army order, you don't know, the army's weapons and equipment must be replaced every year, so as to ensure that new weapons can be used when war breaks out at any time."

"That's right." The emir nodded.

"How? Is it hard these days? Frazi asked with a smile, as if it really was just a greeting.

"No, it's just practice, it's just a warm-up for me."

"Hey, what a big breath, worthy of being a genius in our family." Frazi expressed his heartfelt admiration.

"Where is it, it is far inferior to you, the head of the family."

"Haha, that's," Frazi was unceremoniously at the Amir's polite words, "after all, I've lived for more than five hundred years, and if you reach my age one day, you don't know how many times stronger than me." ”

"Passed the prize......"

"Eh, don't be polite to me anymore," Frazi smiled and waved his hand, "I'm realistic, and I should praise geniuses more." ”

“…… Oh, thanks for the compliment. The emir scratched his head in embarrassment.

At this time, he almost dispelled the idea of frazi asking for the guilt.

However, the other party saw that he relaxed and immediately changed the topic.

"By the way, Emir, I haven't asked you yet, where did you get your elven powers...... Hehe, don't get me wrong, although I also said at the beginning that no matter what your background is, as long as you can contribute to this family, I'm still a little curious, how about it? Would you like to reveal that? ”

"This ......," the emir hesitated.

"Really? Sure enough, you still don't trust me. Frazi was slightly disappointed.

"No, of course not, the main thing is that there is nothing special ......about it," the emir said hesitantly, "Well, I can only say that my luck is too good, and I don't know if it is the virtue accumulated by several generations, by the way, I haven't told you about my hometown, since my ancestors broke away from the Stuart family, they have run to the remote areas of the empire, and live an ordinary life, but you have also heard, when the demons attacked, the first thing to attack was that area, my hometown was destroyed, and my relatives were gone, I wouldn't be alive if I hadn't been rescued by an elf who happened to pass by, and it was when I received the blood of that elf that I was on the verge of death, so I became an elf. ”

"Oh, I see." Frazi nodded thoughtfully.

"I'll just say, it's nothing special, why don't you tell me how you became an elf in the first place?" The emir asked rhetorically.

“…… I? Frazi's face changed suddenly.

"Haha, I'm sorry, it's me who is talking too much," the emir quickly apologized, then stood up and wanted to leave, "If you have nothing else to do, I'll leave first, and we'll talk another day when I'm free." ”

"Wait, sit down." Frazi continued to grimace, then said in a commanding tone.

“…… Uh, also, anything else? ”

"Hehe, why do you feel like you're a little afraid of me," Frazzi laughed suddenly, but it seemed to be a smile that saw through everything, "I don't think I've done anything wrong, right?" ”

"What, what? I, how can I, my lord, you really joke, what can I do as a novice forger? ”

"Well, yes," Frazi nodded, and said with a smile, "I think people are quite accurate, you are not the kind of person who eats inside and out, I just talk casually, don't care, don't care." ”

"Oh, then, can I go?"

"Please," said Frazi, who stood up to see him off, and then, as if remembering something, "ah, by the way, our entire family of forgers will have dinner together later, and if you have nothing else to do, stay at home." ”

"Oh," the emir paused, and finally chose to excuse himself, "Thank you for your kindness, but my friend is going to invite me to dinner again, he is the first friend I have made in the royal capital, I can't help but give him face, and he has a lot of connections, maybe he will introduce more business to our family in the future, you see this ......"

"Alas, this is really not a coincidence, then forget it, you can go."

Vrazzi readily agreed, and proceeded to send the emir to the door.

After a while, Vrazzi watched as Emir disappeared into the hallway, and then asked a person who suddenly appeared next to him without looking back.

"How? Ernst, is his room surveyed complete? ”

“…… Yes, although I found two girls in his room, they were very cooperative in letting me in and investigate, and I almost searched the whole room, but I couldn't find anything. ”

"Tsk, it's impossible, if he can complete so many orders in three days according to what you said, he should have the same tools as me."

"You mean the Elven Crystal Hammer?" Ernst remembered.

"Of course, what I stole from the elves back then, in addition to technology, there is also that forging artifact, and now it seems that he must have one too."

“…… Will you bring it with you? Maybe he has a magic ring too. Ernst guessed as he rubbed his chin.

"Well, who knows? But we can't keep this kid at all," Frazi sighed heavily, as if he felt sorry for the betrayal of the Emir, and then he added, "Ernst, I trust you most in the whole family, take my letter of introduction, go to the man, and let him help deal with the Emir." ”

"So, the man? But......" Ernst was suddenly frightened, "Emile is still a child, his future is still far away, if we persuade him a little more, maybe it will be ......"

"Ernst!" Frazzi reprimanded, "Don't have any illusions, the future of our family is important, but we also have to rely on our own strength to save the family, instead of pinning the hopes of the whole clan on a traitor, do you understand?" ”

"Yes, yes, I, I understand, I'll do it."

Ernst was stunned, but he hurried back to the head of the house, but as soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to leave.

"Wait, what a daredevil, I haven't written a letter of introduction yet."

“…… Oooh. Ernst nodded repeatedly.

A few minutes later, Emile returned to his room, only to find Ophelia and Cosette silent, as if preoccupied.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Ernst came here just now, and said that this room had something left by the previous person, and he was in a hurry, so he came in and looked for it."

"That's right." The emir was unimpressed.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Emir, I let him in, but I don't know what he took with him." Ophelia bowed her head, as if she felt that she might have harmed the Emir.

"Nonsense, I let him in," Cosette interjected, "I'm sorry, Émile, it's my fault. ”

"No, no, no, Your Highness, this has nothing to do with you."

"Huh? It doesn't matter why, it was obviously me who opened the door at the time. ”

"Poof!" Emir burst out laughing suddenly, "Hahahahaha...... You are ......."

"Tsk," Cosette kicked him angrily, "seriously, we're serious." ”

The emir was kicked and immediately crouched down, clutching his leg in pain.

"Ouch, Your Highness, your hands are too heavy, my thin arms and legs can't help tossing."

"Hmph, who told you not only not to accept our apology, but also to laugh at us, should!"

"How can I laugh at you?" "I just think it's funny that you two are here to admit your mistakes when I don't have any personal belongings in this room." ”

"Huh?" Ophelia's eyes widened in surprise.

"I see," Cosette breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, "but don't you admit to laughing at us?" ”

"Ahh......h

After a while, he returned to his senses and said leisurely.

"Ophelia, Your Highness Cosette, I think it's time for us to get out of here, Frazi is already suspicious of me, and just now asked me to talk, but fortunately I was fooled for the time being."

"Well, Ernst's movements are already obvious."

"Then what you made with my father ......," Cosette said again.

So, Emir stared at her with a serious face, and after a long time, he even stared at her a little blush.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will take my own life as a guarantee, and I will never give up my agreement with the Elf King, and I vow to completely destroy Frazi."

“…… Hmph, fool, who wants you to take your life," Cosette said angrily, "but your words are enough. ”

While they were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, and the emir was immediately alert, and then cautiously opened the door.

"Emir, let me in." Ernst said anxiously as he watched behind him.

"What, what's the situation?" The emir was puzzled, but let him in anyway.

Ernst stood by the door, sweating profusely and panting.

"The ...... of the Émile"

"Oh, I'm here, what's wrong with you?"

"Quick, leave the royal capital, there's no time."

"What's the lack of time? Mr. Ernst, be clear. Ophelia asked.

"Emir, Master of the House...... Frazi is going to send a terrible killer to kill you, if you stay here, you will definitely not be able to escape in the end, and the only way is to leave the royal capital. ”

"But didn't you just search my room? Why are you here to inform me now...... And you must have denounced me in front of Frazi, right? ”

"......" Ernst was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head, "I didn't expect Frazi to do such a great job, but I do have to apologize to you, I hurt you, you are a genius, I can't bear to see you die, you just listen to my advice, no matter what you want to do in the king, what dreams you have, these are not as important as your talent and life, you can still shine in another place, and then revitalize the Stuart family by the way, so leave quickly, don't come back." ”

"Mr. Ernst," said the Emile, smiling heartily at his anxious look, "thank you for taking care of me at all this time. ”

"Well, don't talk nonsense," Ernst exclaimed as he pushed everyone out of the room, and after making sure that there was no one around, "O Emile, I wish you were the head of the Stuart family, and not a scheming fellow like Frazi. ”

"Well, don't worry, I'll leave the royal capital...... But wait until I complete a convention. ”

"Huh?" Ernst was dumbfounded, "You, didn't you listen to me?" ”

The emir smiled and shook his head.

"Of course I did, but do you think I can't beat the killer sent by Frazi?"

"Ah, this ......," Ernst looked up and down the small figure of the emir.

"Mr. Ernst, you may not know, I also have elven blood, I am still a magician, and the two around me are not simple, one is an existence comparable to a paladin, and the other is a princess of the elven race, do you think we have no chance of winning?"

Ernst took a step back and began to look at the two girls next to him, finally sighing from the bottom of his heart.

“…… I'm not mistaken, Émile, you really are hidden. ”
