Ayworth and the others left, and only Fran and Garth were left in the room.

No, it distracted me that there would be stories to accumulate. Only Ayworth was making noise that he still needed to talk, but the Falls took him out.

Once again, Gurus opens his mouth when he sees that Fran has tied the line to prevent eavesdropping. Because you're going to try to eavesdrop on me in ways you can't even imagine, Ayworth.

”Again, thank God. You found my sheath. Right?

”Mmm.”

'Cause it's that shape and name. I thought there was definitely something there. ”

”I thought you'd definitely notice, huh?

But that's not the problem.

'No, but you are. There was a chance we weren't coming to King's Landing, was there?

I don't know if we'll keep our word. Maybe I can run other errands, maybe I'm losing my life on a journey because I'm an adventurer.

But Garth shook his head gently and smiled furiously.

”I'm fine. I knew you guys would keep your promises.”

”Naturally. I keep my promises to my friends”

”Ha. You're my friend! Yeah, you're my friend!

”Mmm.”

That's what I was laughing at when I said it, Garth, but soon its face gets serious. No, are you just a little weak? I just feel a little pity in those eyes. What's the matter with you?

”So, yeah. Can I ask you one question?

”Hmm?”

”That gear, was it originally my Black Cat series?

I knew you'd be worried there. I explained to Garth how I got this gear. That in a series of battles with powerful enemies, the repair function was decreasing. That the fierce battle has made me worn me out. That the blacksmith I happen to know refurbished it for me.

”A blacksmith I met by chance...... Is that a divine blacksmith?

Have you noticed? It makes Garth's work, the world's highest blacksmith, even better, and only a limited number of people can do that. Garth is slightly weak, I guess, because he was comparing himself to Alistair's work.

”Uh...”

What should I do? No, I've improved Garth's work on my own. Though it was necessary for Fran, he should apologize to Garth through benevolence.

'That's right. Alistair, a divine blacksmith, modified Garth's made armor. Sorry. Without permission...'

”No, I have nothing to apologize for! Rather, Non is impressed!

'Wow. Yu, will you forgive me?

”Forgiveness or nothing, you're disqualified as a blacksmith if you're angry at the sight of such a job!

Garth seemed seriously impressed. His eyes sparkle as he stares at Fran's black heavenly tiger gear.

”such as remodeling named items and finishing up with so much stuff...... great”

”I'm a divine blacksmith.”

”Kuh. Without this incident, I'd wish for an apprentice...”

”No, no, apprenticeship?

Garth, an honorary blacksmith in the kingdom of Kranzel? But if you think about it, they're legendary blacksmiths. Isn't it strange to be a disciple?

I'm supposed to be in the kingdom of Verios now, but I don't know how far I can tell you about Alistair.
