Chapter 805 - 805 Recruiting the Blacksmith

805 Recruiting the Blacksmith

“His Majesty?! And how can I believe you? Making him suddenly appear like that, I don’t know how you did it, but I just can’t trust you,” the Blacksmith said. As for the little girl hiding behind her, she was amazed that I can use something that can make people appear all of a sudden.

Is it safe to do that in front of them? Am I sure that they are not related to the cult?

For now, I don’t know yet. But having him will be essential for the destruction of the cult.

And not just that. If he can cooperate with Marie and create many more amazing invention, then he will be helpful even when it’s no longer a war time against the cult.

“What about the crown? It’s not convincing that this old man has a crown on top of his head?” I asked.

“It’s not convincing because someone is actually treated a person who could be a king normally. No normal person would treat their king like that,” the blacksmith said.

Ah, he’s right. It’s totally my fault. I just brought old man Henry here and talked to him so casually.

Though I don’t think that the Blacksmith will still believe me if I said that I’m not even a citizen of Varadis. And even if I say that, the blacksmith will believe me less.

“I think it would have been better if you brought him to the castle instead. That way, he will believe you,” old man Henry said.

.....

“Yeah, I think so too. But I’d rather be here and check all the weapons here. Hey, you! You started acting hostile to us as soon as we get here. Do you have enemies? Maybe we can negotiate then. You know that I alone is already stronger than you, right? Maybe we can help each other a bit,” I said.

I’m trying to negotiate with him by saying that I can defeat his enemies.

He’s acting hostile as soon as we get close. I don’t think any normal people would do that. Or maybe it’s because this blacksmith has a lot of experience that he can tell that we’re extremely strong. So he needed to kill us right away. Because he thought that we’re one of them.

When we’re waiting for answer, instead of the blacksmith, it was the little girl behind him who spoke.

“...There were some scary people. They told us that Grandpa has to join them or they will kill us like how they killed my parents. They gave us some time to think and left,” she said.

Hmm? Some people killed her parents? And they want this grandpa to join them? Are they from the cult?

“Tina! Enough! Don’t say anything anymore! We can’t trust them!” the blacksmith shouted.

“But we can’t do anything! And these guys are strong! They can protect us!” the little girl, Tina, complained back to her grandfather.

So, they are currently trying to avoid those people. If that’s the case, then why are they here?

“If you don’t want to join them, then why are you guys still here and working on another weapon? You can just leave, right?” I asked.

“...There were no other places with good equipment for me to craft weapons,” the blacksmith said.

Right. He said that he’s looking for someone who can use his weapons well. He said that after I split his Fireball in two.

So he chose his dream instead of escaping, huh?

“For now, how about we have a nice and peaceful talk. Other than the king, we will wear the Magic Restricting Collar so you know that we won’t be able to use magic. That way, we can talk peacefully,” I suggested.

“...That would be useless after seeing you cut a magic in half. You don’t need to do that. You can come in and... there’s not enough seat for everyone. I’m sorry. How about we do it here?” the blacksmith said.

“Okay. Victoria, a table and seats for eight people,” I said.

There are eight people here. Me, old man Henry, the four master level mages including old man Henry’s grand aunt, and the blacksmith and her granddaughter.

“This...”

The blacksmith was shocked to see a Black Slime split herself into multiple pieces and turned into table and chairs.

And not just that. I also had some Blobbies and turned it into a sword I used to use. Just to let him see the weapon I used.

“By the way, here. It’s a weapon I’m using. They’re my familiar that can shapeshift into anything. First, I want to see an expert’s reaction seeing my weapon. You will then know why I came here,” I said.

I showed him Victosword. He checked it and was amazed by it.

“The sharpness is amazing. And for the durability, I don’t think it’s good enough. The used knife that you used before is still more durable than this sword. But I can’t really tell since this is a living being. At least for sharpness, I think that it’s good enough,” he said.

He’s right. That’s also what I get from using his knife. Though for the sharpness, I don’t know. But seeing at his other creations, I think he’s right.

“For me, sharpness and durability is not important. But a better weapon is still preferable. Especially for this sword-cane. If possible, I want you to make a sword for this. Just the sword. The cane sheath is irreplaceable,” I said.

This time, I showed him the sword-cane. The sword is worse than Victosword. And he seems to have a lot of complain about the sword. But he didn’t say anything.

“Yeah. I can make a better sword than this one. But I want to know your deal. I don’t think it’s just because you want me to make you one weapon. Do you want to recruit me just like those other people?” the blacksmith asked as he returned the sword back to me.

“For that, let the King speak. He will tell you everything. And probably, the reason of the girl’s parents death is related to his fault,” I said.

What I meant was that someone probably killed the girl’s parents after almost the entirety of Varadis got controlled by the cult. Back when before I met old man Henry.

And even after that, there’s still a time when many of the cities were under control of the cult. Or at least close to that. And it has been taken care of by old man Henry now. But that doesn’t mean that everyone in involved in that has been killed.

They might learnt that this old blacksmith is here and aimed for his craftsmanship. So they might still be in hiding and waiting for a chance to recruit him. Forcefully.

While old man Henry is explaining to the blacksmith, I’m checking the surrounding. There might be some traces of the guy who killed the girl’s parents.

While I do that, I also contacted Burnes about it. He and a few other circus members have phones. So I can contact them. And ask those who are free to prepare to come here because I might have learned something about the cult.

I opened a portal and the agents then split up to see any traces of people here other than us.

One agent from Varadis will meet old man Henry and ask the blacksmith about something that could be used to track the enemies.

If they are not with the cult, then the agents can handle them peacefully. Probably some broken bones or so.

But I don’t think that’s the case. Because this blacksmith is an expert level fire mage. And he was extremely cautious when we arrived. So we can tell that the enemy is at least as strong as the blacksmith.

After the agent interrogating him left, the blacksmith just sat there in disbelief.

“I’m sorry for being rude, Your Majesty. I can’t believe that all that happened. And if there’s a cult like that in this world, then they are probably the one who killed Tina’s parents. If you really wish to destroy them, then I will help you,” the blacksmith said.

“That’s great. With your help, we can do a lot of things. But you will probably live in the capital of Tatrama instead of in Varadis anymore. It’s safer in that country since it’s his home country,” old man Henry pointed at me as he explained it to the blacksmith.

He’s just saying that I’m the strongest in the whole alliance and someone that they trust the most.

“As long as Tina is safe, then I don’t mind. But for the equipment—”

“I can bring them all there easily. But first, we need a place for you to stay in the capital. Probably in my mansion over there. After all, no one dares to mess with me. If people learned that you’re one of my people, they will keep their distance from you. Even if they don’t, there are many people who can protect you and your granddaughter there,” I said.

“Okay. But first, about the people who threatened me. It will be suspicious if they see that the house is empty,” the blacksmith said.

“That won’t be a problem at all. In fact, you can leave right away if you want. More importantly, I want to check your weapons. Don’t worry, I’ll pay for those that interest me. As for the future when you join us, you don’t have to worry about payment. I’m rich. And the kings are rich. You will be paid handsomely,” I said.

With this, we got a blacksmith with us. Now, everyone can have a weapon to protect themselves in case they can’t use magic.
