Chapter 725 - Vol V Chapter 85 (2/2)

His was short and bulky, and he wore a thick armor. He did not look like an exploration worker but rather an explorer. His name was Dudu Hill, and he was a young dwarf; this could be seen by his short beard

To the dwarves, when the beard grew longer than the palm, it indicated that they were fully grown. Dudu Hill’s beard was thin and short, signaling that he was still young. However, he did not lack in skill, and he was able to speak several languages as well as understanding much about rocks and mining. In fact, his level of knowledge could parallel that of outstanding student Hopes. He also had decent fighting skills and followed Ruby to cut wood a while after he had arrived.

Ruby was an explorer of tens of years, and thus, keeping up with him was no easy feat.

The most talented in the group, however, was still Sid. Although he did not participate in the wood cutting, when Dudu Hill had wanted to challenge him, he had still produced a certificate. It showed that in the fourth season of a world fighting tournament, he had been one of the top sixteen contestants. This stunned Dudu Hill and the other two as well. They knew that he was talented, but not to this extent.

The world fighting competitions were the most important in this world, and the youth group was full of talented young who with impressive skills even before they were grown. Some were even stronger than explorers. For example, the “King of the Seaside” Leon who won the championship title in the Eagle King Knights competition and neared the Legendary Realm.

Being a part of the top sixteen still showed his extreme strength, even if he had been lucky enough to meet weaker opponents. Dudu stared at the certificate, unsatisfied, and said, “When I was in the first contest, I was still young. Next time… I’ll also get some good results!”

“All the best at you. However, you don’t really earn much if you win. It’s better if you focus on being a miner; you could earn more that way.”

“It’s not like I lack money!”

Sid frowned and stared at Dudu Hill.

Dudu Hill pursed his lips and put on a “I don’t want to say anything” kind of look.

After a while, Sid nodded and said, “Anyway, being a miner is good. It suits you. Better than fighting in some contest.”

This time, Dudu did not retaliate and simply sat on his bed, arranging his belongings in silence. Dwarfs’ bedding needs were special, and he had brought them here.

After a while, Dudu and Ruby left to buy undergarments and other items. Hopes curiously found Sid to ask about Dudu’s background.

“It’s not much of a secret anyway. Just like your surname is Wilder and it represents a tribe in the Orc Empire, his surname is Hill, and it represents one of the dwarven tribes.”
