Chapter 89 Dog and Assistant. (2/2)

With how things were currently hiding ht not have been an option If he even needed to do that was still up to debate It had been soer since he left his old hoht have been time to let all of this paranoia rest and move on with his life

“Don’t worry Mr Wayland, your secret is safe with me so please hirehis head once more, it was clear to Roland that this youth had lost a lot the day before The party of adventurers he orking for iped away and this along with s

The half-dwarf had craftsh with the help of his identification skill He wasn’t sure why he would choose hih, the half-dwarf clearly didn’t have a e class which was needed if he wanted to beco mana sense later in your life but they all required costly itee rituals

“My assistant? I can’t teach you rune s, you don’t have the talent for it”

“I’ular blacksmith like ive you back the coins for the !”

It was unclear to Roland why this youth was so adamant in his resolve It didn’t make much sense to him that he wanted to work for him There were many other traditional blacksmiths in the city that were also dwarves

He was rade aruy, he also had just leveled up fro class so he wouldn’t really know much more than this kid

“Shouldn’t you try the other blacksray…”

He wanted to mention some of the weapon shops and armor shops that would be better for the youth in the city but he was quickly cut off

“I tried… no one would want to hire me…”

“They wouldn’t? Why?”

Roland was a bit surprised by this fact as the youth did have a good class distribution for a craftsman Bernir would make a nice addition to any smithy and could probably be developed into a weaponsmith or an armorsmith soon

“No one would want a half-blood like me…”

Bernir slu his head while silence filled the rooot about that…”

There was a certain ‘purity’ undertone in these lands Humans, elves, dwarves, and all the other races somewhat looked down on anyone that was considered mixed He wasn’t sure why this was the case with so many races around this world

It see obvious and natural but reality here was different The races would somewhat accept the side them At least not unless they showed their worth in one way or the other

Roland had kind of tossed things like this into the back of his head He didn’t really adhere to the social nor alone His introverted tendencies only got worse with tiained a potential helper There was also the ball of energy that was barking furiously in his closet

He decided to finally open it and could only see a red blur It was clearly not used to its own body which caused it to collide with its newa sainst his shi+n The ruby hound’s head collided with his leg sending shi+vers of pain down his spine

The dog flopped on the ground with a wide openedfuriously It clearly didn’t react to hitting Roland’s leg and causing hi out of his house Though after looking at its silly face he wasn’t able to go with it and ended up just gruet about this apprentice nonsense, we should report to the guild about that rare boss You will probably be able to keep the iteize”

Roland trailed off but stopped hi

“It’s fine eren’t that close, I wasn’t really part of that party…”

Thefro the big black nose a prod with his finger

“Be quiet”

Surprisingly the dog listened to the order while sitting down

“Did it hatch froretfully…”

“Why? It looks like it likes you, Mr Wayland”

Bernir s down, he reached out towards theto pet it The red wolf pup didn’t react in kindness though, it bore its teeth at the person trying to pet it while quickly hiding behind Roland’s leg This caused the half-dwarfdeep inside his little heart

‘I need to finish that guild quest ‘

Roland gave out a sigh while his house continued to be invaded by foreign sources He had been living here for quite soood part Now he had a loud dog constantly barking and a half-dwarf that looked like he could juo to the guild I need to put my armor back on…’

He had disrobed and placed his armor down in his workshop He had somehow been able to put it on the last tiet all the straps in While thinking about this he looked down at the sad Bernir

“Bernie was it? so you want to be ht back… and keep that red dog in check”

“It’s Bernir…”

The young man perked up at the mention of the apprentice role He remained in the roo and locking the door behind him as he exited

The little red pup was quick to follow his new mommy but the way outside was blocked by the half-dwarf The little ani while Bernir continuously tried to keep it fro further into this house

While this was happening Roland was down in his true base of operations He quickly packed up the ar to have a potential apprentice he would use his presence to the fullest His secret was partially out in the open and the youth already saw his armor in action as well This didn’t mean that he would show hi upstairs he found his living room destroyed The chairs were all turned around and so was the table He found Bernir wrestling with the s

“What are you doinghere help uild…”

He squinted at the two people while conteood idea to keep both of them around here
