Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith

"Aniki, you have received two letters. Neither of them seem to know Aniki... but for some reason we have received news to the castle as a public document"

The royal castle life, which was a bee at first, is something I'm used to after a week, and I'm also leveling up enough to get a stylish drink made of fruit with my legs on the couch.

It bothers me that Mr. Spatifila, who refrains behind me, occasionally crushes meaningfully that Master Iris "is” a tough worker...

"To me? Who is it?

View the sender of the letter.

Fragen Dartanel and Gomen Arethsic...... true, they were two people who had no idea.

"I don't know anyone named Gomen Arethsic, but Fragen is a well-acquainted person. I don't think I know anyone very much like Aniki..."

"Heh, what kind of person?

"Tell you what, that's a name that comes up when you have a bad story. You even feel bad when you hear that name. My brother and I have been bumping into each other for a long time..."

You're an amazing man. No more plague god class?

Still, it's a very hectic sitting man to bump into a prince.

"There it is. Can't you make it right with royal power or something?

"Right. Sometimes it's not good for my father to wield much power... More importantly, the strong power of the Darthanelle family in Fragen's home is a major factor."

"Is it such a great house?

"Yes, I regret it. Originally this country tends to be centrally centralized, but the Dartanelles are at the head of it, aren't they? Because it is at the core of Wang Du's economy...... As a matter of fact, the Kudan nation has flourished so far, and the Dartanelles have done so much good."

I see. Does money mean power? Plus he said he had some credit for developing the country.

That's a tough one to stop if you run wild.

"The Dartanel family was really a famous family, and it was predominant that they did very well up to their predecessors, but a little more greedy became predominant in the modern era. Besides, the next generation is a fragen full of trouble. You have a headache supporting the future king's capital."

"Something... you're having a hard time. I thought our territory was tough, but everyone's struggling out there."

"Yes, but recent developments in Helanese territory are the brightest news. Aniki's father, Lord Tral, is a trustworthy man, and my father praises him well."

That's true!?

I'll be so happy to tell my father. Because he is a man of joy and sorrow. I feel particularly sorry for you among them, so I'll make it easier for you once in a while.

"Fragen, you must have smelled a delicious honey in the Helanese economy anyway. Aniki, you have nothing to fear. Jump all pushy demands."

Of course that is.

I'm not weak enough to give in to blackmail, nor have my attachments diminished enough to sell my territory. Rather, I'm in a good mood, and so much so that I miss the land of Helan, which hasn't been home in a long time.

"As far as I'm concerned, you can break the letter and throw it away."

"Um, excuse me. It has arrived as a public document, could you look through it?

If that's the case, I don't want to bother Larser, and should I read it properly?

"Dear Lord Kurli Helan. Thank you very much for your help the other day. I wanted to return the favor, so I came to my house. I hope to see you tonight '

"... let's see"

"Honestly...... that's unexpected content. I thought you were talking about Helan territory...... Rather than what? Aniki, do you know him? Even Fragen's life saved it."

Right, because they respect you.

Did you save anyone's life on the way to the Imperial Castle? I've had plenty of greetings.

"You don't remember. You might see it on your face."

"Really?... What do you want to do? Do you accept the invitation?

"No, I say no"

"Are you invited to say no in this context? It's a boulder aniki! I'm glad you said no."

As for the real deal, I just said no because it felt like Larser would want me to say no from the start. As far as I'm concerned, I'm more than happy to be in the mood for Larser.

"Ha, ha, let's get rid of all this ferocity already. Spatifila, keep this incinerated. And answer no."

If I read it, can I throw it away? Where I keep my order tight, it's discipline. And until incineration. How much the hell did you hate it?

Besides, even Mr. Spatifila, who was ordered, looks a little happy.

I've noticed lately that when Larser is happy, she feels happy too. Dear master? I wonder if that's the relationship.

I delighted Larser, and for a while, the spell that Master Iris "is a" very hard worker, "may be a little less frequent.

"Another one, Mr. Gomen Arethsic, isn't it? I know it's a familiar name, but let's open it."

"What if it's a love letter"

"It's probably a man, okay?

……

I just decided to open it.

"Dear Lord Kurli Helan"

I've been loved again. You've been greatly respected lately. Has the charm finally penetrated the public?

"In anticipation of his arms as a blacksmith, he invites him to the Ten Jie Conference of the Blacksmith Association. I have an important story to tell, so I want you to join me. Forge Association Tenjie Representative, Gomen Ares Chic '

"Uh, I see. Were you Mr. Gomen, a representative of the Blacksmith Association? Aniki, shouldn't I be in on this?

"Are you famous? And the blacksmith association?

"It's like an association of blacksmiths coming together in Wang Capital. I'm not familiar with the details, but the blacksmith" Iron Soul ", run by Mr. Gomen, should make the majority of the weapons that Wang Du's soldiers will have."

"Isn't there a good number of soldiers in Wang Du? Work, catching up?

"Yes, because 'Iron Soul' is also a pretty massive blacksmith"

Is there such a place? I can see the blacksmiths getting together and everyone brushing their arms...... I'm in a different environment than I am doing it personally, so I'd be kind of excited to imagine.

"Sounds interesting, and I think we should go with this"

"Yes, let me get back to you. I'm sure Aniki's arm was recognized."

"I'd love to."

On the date of the invitation, I went for the Blacksmith Association, wearing clothes of noble stature even if Larser wanted to prepare them for me. It is a fabric that fits your body so it can move quite easily. I wonder if you cared so you could do the blacksmith.

Doesn't that make you look a little out of place? I asked Larser, "Because I'm noble. Let's put out our identities," he enlightened.

The carriage ran for a while and came a long way from the heart of the king's capital. We are far from the aristocracy on boulders.

"We arrived," he reported, glancing out the window.

There's a different building in front of me than I thought. I imagined a dirtier spot with more coal and stuff on it, but there was a solid, beautiful brick building there.

Something was well received, and it was surprising there. Because I had this unsolicited image.

Because I surrounded the blacksmith and imagined a meeting in the heat... I licked too much on the boulder. Good thing I got some decent clothes.

"Master Kurli Helan, right? I've been waiting for you. The venue will be in the back meeting room. I'll show you."

Let the polite receptionist handle it and go into the back of the building. The venue already attracted members and received the attention of all. I'm an invitee, I'm meeting her for the first time and it's a natural reaction, but I feel kind of embarrassed.

You're young. Thin. I'm wearing good clothes. But as I heard.

I heard some people whining about that secretly.

"Have you come? Please, sit down."

That's what a man of his age could say about an old man sitting in the deepest part of the venue.

Same around, but basically they're all old. Is there enough people in their thirties or so per person?

I wonder what will begin now. I'm softening up.

"I appreciate you taking the time to come. You really are a nobleman. He deserves his street name," The Magnificent Dancer. "

"A gorgeous dancer?

What's that? And there's a street name? Mine? A man, but a dancer?... that might do.

"Oh? That sounds like your first ear. You don't really interact with other blacksmiths."

"Yes, I do it mostly by myself"

"Right, right. A street name is something that all amazing craftsmen have. By the way, I'm" Iron Brain "Gormen Ares Chic."

Was it still Mr. Gomen this guy invited me to? I thought it might be because it's one of the oldest in the season... Nevertheless, I am concerned about the street name 'Iron Brain'. Does that mean that's all you have in your head? If so, he's a pretty amazing guy. In a good or a bad way.

"Now that 'The Magnificent Dancer' has arrived, let's say we start the Forge Society Ten Jie Conference with this. As we all know on today's agenda, the selection of a person to fill the vacant seat of Lord Kamek, the" Elder ", who passed away the other day." The Magnificent Dancer is the first I've heard of it, but I've heard rumors before that there's no one to discuss it with. "

'Elder' is the street name, isn't it? The street name means that's the person's impression, so 'Elder' was much older? I want to hear your explanation first! With personal interest!

"And you happen to get the sword that that person would have struck... this is another amazing delicacy. I feel vibrant and vibrant in my sword, and above all, delicate and gorgeous. Besides, the person who struck this is not a noble young man. On my own, but I was given the street name 'gorgeous dancer' on the spot"

"There's a history of that... Nice street name."

I'm glad it wasn't "young" or something. If there is an 'elder', it is a possibility that can never be denied.

"So this is the sword that impressed me then. Are you sure it was the sword you struck?

The sword brought out by "Iron Brain"...... it is indeed my sword that I struck. I don't remember all of the swords I struck, but I remember everything I carved my name into a boulder. By the way, he seems to call me by my street name on this occasion, so I'll try to learn from that, too.

"Yes, that's... right"

"That's kind of a bad way of putting it."

Bad tooth cut? That's right. It was definitely a sword that gave way to someone, but that's not good enough. I think it was a sword I struck on a sleepless day. I didn't hit it with the intention of selling it in the first place, so I'm a little out of temper. To be appreciated for such a half-way thing is to be honest more embarrassing than happy.

"No, ha, is that right? Can you do it? It's good to have you here."

"Right. It's tough to reach this realm without natural talent. Will there be a master?

"Yes, I have Master Donga. I'm a hard-headed, craftsman, you know?

"Ho, Donga is the master. I know his master, naturally, because he's this weasel. He wasn't that good of a disciple, but he was quite a stranger in a good way. Around making such a noble brother a disciple, I see his purity for the blacksmith job. You've done a great job producing dragons, Donga."

That's a strange edge. I didn't know Master Donga was Mr. Gomen's apprentice. And as a disciple, I'd like to argue a little bit that you're not doing well. But I guess you know much more about Master Donga than I do. I mean I still remember...

So this man is the master of the master? You're such a great guy.

"Even the one has no street name. I wonder if that would make you feel any better.

"Are you saying I'm better than my master? I don't think so..."

"How many years do I think I've been in this world? Donga would fall into a first-rate category in this world, but he's not at the apex. Vertex, that's exactly who the ten of us are here, then I think."

That's what I wanted to hear from my master's mouth, but if he's my master's master, is that okay?

"Those at the apex will determine the future of blacksmithing. Those who are here to protect and to develop should do so. Therefore, it is difficult to be a bad candidate. I think I deserve these ten seats. Will you officially take office today, or I would like to hear the views of the other members"

We're done explaining the situation and getting to the bottom of this.

I'm pulling the industry as the head of the blacksmith!? I don't even have my own shop yet, but it's like flying into the sky.

"I don't know."

Me and Mr. Gormen are sitting opposite each other, three to the right of the table and four to the left. The most spectacular man on its right raised his hand.

"I don't mind, 'Kabuki'"

"I disagree with the Ten Jie participation in" The Magnificent Dancer ""

"Ho, that always gives me a clear opinion. Let me know why."

"Yes, I honestly agreed until I came to this place. But when you look at that sword again, you're still young... don't be out there. It's a great delicacy, and it would be a sword of sorts that I can't even strike. But compared to my sword, I still think it's inferior. I would like to keep it as a place where there are only craftsmen on par with me or more on this occasion. I'm sorry I said" Magma. "

"No, it's a valuable opinion." Magnificent Dancer, "do you have something to say?

Of course there is. That was a polite way of putting it, but you're insulted as an artisan.

"It's no excuse, and I really want to get into these ten jewels, but that sword is not well made. The part of me that has put out what goes out into the world in a halfway state is my sweetness, but I want to teach you a lesson from now on. Again, I don't want to go in, but the sword alone won't judge me. Technology is still evolving every day. That's not my collection."

I could say everything I wanted to say, I guess...

I don't know how awesome this place is, but if you ask me if I want to go in, I honestly don't want to go in separate. It looks like a hassle.

"I'm glad this is a clear opinion. I didn't know I could strike any more swords... that would be really awesome if it were true. Some things could really jump to the top..."

"If that story is true. Young people always want to exaggerate themselves. Please take that into account."

"Kabuki" denies me, but I like it when I say it without covering it up. "Iron Brain," he also said, "I guess this is the kind of person who has clarity. You're not the type to hate.

"I agree."

The man in his 30s, close to me, gave his opinion in front of the left hand side of the table.

"Do you agree with 'Money Geva'? I don't really have an opinion, but it's rare."

Money geva!? Okay, so!! Cool and clear, but they say money geva!!

"Young is a strength. I can strike more swords than that, whether that's true or false, it's important that it's able to strike at the moment. I agree very much."

"That's the way you see it. It is true that there is youth on this occasion. It's not as lively as' Money Geva '. And then there's the fact that I'm biased against old ideas, including the eagles."

Afterwards, there was a conflict of opinion around the opposite 'Kabuki' and the favourable 'Money Geba'.

I know 'Iron Brain' is a proponent, but he's defending neutrality in his position, so he's in a state where opinions are just divided four to four. Are you happy the meeting is going to be exciting, 'Iron Brain' oils up when the place is going to settle down?

Are you out of your mind that they all seem kind of fun? Honestly, I'm left alone.

"Minasa, it's time for lunch -"

When the receptionist sister came in and brought the meal, everyone honestly followed.

This kind of honesty is craftsmanship.

"There are rumors that 'Money Geva' is about to buy a nobility with its financial strength. So maybe it's nice to have a real nobleman in."

"Iron Brain" seems to have a natural place to decide people's minds. "Money Geba" is only blushing while eating.

"Yeah, well, you haven't told 'The Magnificent Dancer' all about these ten jewels yet. There are, of course, quite a few allowances beyond giving this many positions. There's a foundation, and a lot of money is paid from it. Half of this place is declining, but a really good amount of money is distributed every year. Well, for the aristocrat," The Magnificent Dancer, "

Allocation!? Fine forehead!?

"... for how long?

"Oh? Surprisingly interested? Of course not all the time. Unless your arms go crazy or people go crazy, you can't even get rid of them."

"Really? I don't care how much money I have. I am confident that the next owner of Helanese territory will use it well."

"Right, right." Magnificent Dancer "is apparently versatile. The prince seems to be a solid figure, and the future of this country is bright. I'll die in peace."

Don't say that. But I also feel kind of cool about saying that in a fun way.

"Well, my belly came swollen, and I thought it was time to draw a conclusion. As we shall see other swords at a later date, this is where we shall decide our opinions. It's nice to have a big meeting, but I don't like to be postponed."

"So shall we go with the majority vote as usual"

"Right. Let's start with the washi, let's go clockwise." Iron Brain, "Agreed."

Does this person agree, after all?

"'Kabuki', Agreed"

The next 'Kabuki' unexpectedly turned in favor. You were supposed to lead the opposite.

The next person, and the next, were unanimously in favour if they ended up.

... What was it, the heated debate earlier?

"As I was told, I wanted to welcome you there unanimously. At the end of the day, with your consent, you will officially become a member..."

The story unfolds quickly and I'm honestly confused.

But it's admitted, and... and money? sounds like it'll only go in a little bit? I'm not interested in anything else... really.

Halfway through the sword stigma needs to be remedied, and here...

"It's an honor. Of course, let me in."

"Great! Then I'll finish the Ten Jie Conference! Dismissed! I'll send you a certificate of accreditation later, so please wait."

When the decree of dissolution was imposed on a volume that did not seem like an old man of the 'Iron Brain', they all went back to the dispersion. The more I feel, the fresher. We never greet each other when we say goodbye. Craftsman!

There are exceptions among them, and 'Money Geva' has spoken to me.

"" Magnificent Dancer, "if you don't mind, why don't you come to my running blacksmith later in your spare time? You'll see why I'm making money and what's funny."

"Yes, let me go"

I made a light acquaintance, and it's been a meaningful day.

Again, I look back at myself wondering if I could have been quite a craftsman.

Maybe the day you pick this path and think you're right is coming that far soon.
