Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 254: First rate talent Part5

The northern corner of the city was slightly different than the rest of the city.

The dwarves here didn’t look very rich and flourishing, rather they looked more like the dwarves from the village.

It was obvious that only the working middle class and lower class people resided in this area.

Since Tang Yue was also dressed similarly, she fit right into the crowd and no one took a second look at her.

She casually walked over to the smithy shop on the street corner and stopped in front of it.

“Tsk. Tsk. It’s not even open?” She stood there perplexed as to who would close a shop so early in the day.

A few seconds later, an old woman walked towards her coughing loudly. “Are you here to collect some debt?”

“That bastard is inside alright. He is just faking it.”

“Kick the door open and you can find him. Good for nothing.” The old woman spat out and continued walking by.

Tang Yue chuckled wryly. 

“Why am I even here? Sigh. Whatever. It’s just till the beginning of the next lunar cycle.”

She shrugged helplessly and proceeded to kick open the smithy’s door as she was advised.

The thick wooden door immediately fell forward with a loud thud, completely unhinged from the frame.

What the heck? Tang Yue coughed from the dust spiraling around her and stepped inside to take a look.

The smithy itself was not too bad and was very spacious. 

Though everything looked rusty and untouched, there was a decent and sturdy anvil, there was a furnace, there were several hammers lying around and the place was well equipped.

As she was looking around, the floor slightly creaked and someone wobbled in from the other room.

A very short and chubby dwarf, really short even by dwarf standards, fumbled and walked over.

“Who is it? Hic.” The middle-aged dwarf blabbered, his beer belly bouncing along with him.

Tang Yue shook her head helplessly. 

“I am here to join as an apprentice.” She mumbled and started cleaning up the place, without waiting for the dwarf to respond.

“What?” The dwarf chortled loudly in amusement. “Apprentice? Aha Ha Ha Ha.”

Seeing that Tang Yue was no longer paying any attention to him, he took another swig from his bottle and stared at her.

“This is new.” He scratched his head. 

But he didn’t care enough to say anything and started walking back to the cot.

“Do whatever you want and don’t disturb me. Just don’t bother me.” The dwarf mumbled incoherently slurring his words and fell asleep on the cot.

“That was easier than I thought.” Tang Yue nodded satisfactorily and went back to the inn.

It was already late and she didn’t want Kosa to worry about her unnecessarily.

So she quickly returned back to the inn and knocked on the door with a big huge smile on her face.

Kosa opened the door with an intention of reprimanding her for being late, but his expression softened as soon as he saw that smile.

“Child, this city is more dangerous than it looks. You should not be out so late.” He patted her.

“Father. Father. I finally got an apprentice position in one of the smithies.” 

Tang Yue ignored the old man’s words and lied shamelessly, her grin still big and bright.

“This. Is this true?” Kosa was instantly overjoyed.

Tang Yue barged in and took out a pile of stuff from a cheap ass spatial pouch.

She had purchased this pouch and the other items just a few minutes before arriving at the inn, securing the props for her story.

Kosa saw the spatial pouch and his eyes immediately widened. 

Storage pouches were very expensive, even the lower grade ones.

More importantly, his eyes then fell on the other items besides the storage pouch.

There were several carefully bundled parchments and scrolls that described the basics of smithing and other beginner techniques.

There was even a shining silver hammer and some recovery potions.

Kosa couldn’t help but gasp loudly. At first, he didn’t believe his daughter’s words and was skeptical.

But now, seeing all these things, he couldn’t help but believe her completely.

“Ah… Thank the heavens! Well done, child. Well done.” He hugged Tang Yue tightly and praised her.

“Now no one will dare to bully you ever.” “I am sorry, child. This old man is so useless that he is making you do all the hard work.”

“Please don’t say things like that father. You have already done more than enough for me.” Tang Yue consoled him.

“Ah… father. I forgot to tell you. I have to stay in the smithy itself from tomorrow onward.”

“So you don’t have to stay here any longer. You can peacefully return back to the village without worrying about me.”

“Ha Ha. Is that so? That’s very good, child. We will sleep early then so that you can have a productive day.” Kosa patted her lovingly.

The other two in the room looked flabbergasted as they started wordlessly at this emotionally loaded exchange.

They had no idea that Tang Yue was so good at acting!!!

It was almost as if she was the real daughter of the old man and even they themselves found it hard to not believe her words and actions.

“Sly. Sly. Sly. Sly. Sly. Sly slutty snake.” Xander rolled his eyes at the woman.

“Did you say something?” Charlotte looked at the kid curiously. She could swear that she heard the word slutty just now.

Hmph. Xander coldly snorted and turned around without any response, his back indifferently facing Charlotte.

“Damned kid.” Charlotte gnashed her teeth. The vein on her forehead was throbbing.

She sighed lightly and ignored the mongrel, as she quickly laid the beddings again and prepared for the night.

Tang Yue looked busy with the parchments for a while, quickly glossing over the basic smithing techniques, but she as well soon turned in for the night.

The next day morning, Kosa bid farewell to Tang Yue and returned back to the village at the break of dawn.
