On Sunday, July 7th, 777, in the world of Himlear, a rural noble family welcomed their seventh child—a seemingly ordinary girl who, from birth, appeared to have an indissoluble bond with the number...
When Hulim walked into the forge, the first thing he saw was an extremely large furnace with boiling magma bubbling out of it, which should be molten ore.
"Is that you, the one the elf recommended?"
Tsarkin Karagon asked.
Hulim looked at him.
He was a very sturdy dwarf with a thick brown beard and long hair. His eyes were relatively small, but they revealed a sharp light.
The most important thing was that Hulim remembered him. This was the dwarf who had cursed at the door of the blacksmith shop that day.
"Yes, Mr. Tsarkin, my name is Hulim Hyeral. My sword is broken, and Miss Irus asked me to come here."
"Oh~, Haieral, a noble..."
Just as Irus said, the surname Haieral is not an insignificant name in Langard, and Chalkin in front of him obviously knows it.
"Show me the elf's letter of recommendation."
"Okay, here it is."
Hulim handed over the haphazardly folded paper.
Looking at the paper, the corners of Chalkin's mouth twitched noticeably.
Then he opened the paper and saw what was written on it.
“… …”
Charkin held the letter in silence for a long time, during which time Hulim could clearly see the conflicted expression on his face.
"Alas... this was indeed written by that elf."
Tzarkin returned the letter to Hulim.
"Bring me your damaged mithril sword."
"Okay, here."
Hulim handed the mithril sword to Chalkin, and at the same time was curious about what Irus had written that made the dwarf in front of him show such an expression.
Then she opened the letter and read its contents.
There was only one sentence on it...
"[This child's mithril sword is broken, help her fix it (^▽^)]"
Hulim: "..."
"Mythril sword, it's been a while since I've touched a toy like this..."
Tsarkin muttered to himself as he examined the mithril sword.
As if noticing Hulim staring at the letter, he said, "Don't read it. Even though it's unsigned, it's her handwriting."
"...Um, Mr. Chalkin, are you close to Miss Irus?"
Hulim put the letter away again and asked.
Chalkin paused, raised his head, and looked at Hulim with a complicated expression.
"Have you ever seen a dwarf and an elf that got along well?"
“… …”
Tsarkin lowered his head and continued to examine, saying, "I can't help it, because I owe that guy a huge favor."
"Favor?"
"Yes, that's right. It was a life-saving favor... So I really have no right to refuse that guy's request."
So that's how it is. No wonder even though Irus wrote such a letter, Chalkin still accepted it.
when!
Tzarkin picked up a small hammer and knocked on the mithril sword, then looked up at Hulim.
"Little girl named Hulim, you may be quite strong despite your young age, but don't fight with such a strong force in the future. Even if the Mithril Sword is very strong, it won't withstand a direct blow from someone close to B-rank."
“… …”
Well, Hulim wasn't surprised at all.
Although he couldn't explain why, Hulim felt a similar atmosphere from Chalkin as from Irus. Since Irus could easily see through his own strength, it was not surprising that the dwarf in front of him could see through it.
"Okay, I know how to fix it. Just come and get the sword tomorrow, and I'll fix it today."
After Chalkin finished the inspection, he stood up and placed the mithril sword on the forging table.
"Tomorrow, maybe? But Mr. Charkin, aren't you building something very important?"
when--!
Tsarkin smashed the mithril sword with a hammer, and then the mithril sword shattered...
But Chalkin's expression was calm, as if this was a normal operation.
"Ah, you mean that thing? Don't worry about it, you can just build it tomorrow!"
Hulim: "..."
Tsarkin placed the broken mithril sword into a mold, then placed it into the furnace and closed the furnace.
Then he looked back at Hulim.
"Why, are you going down to the dungeon today? If so, I can lend you one of the swords in my shop for a while."
"No, I haven't been to the dungeon yet."
Hulim denied it.
"Is that so? I won't lend you the sword, but considering your level, you can go and take a look. It will be of great help in improving your strength."
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll go check it out..."
... ...
After saying goodbye to Chalkin, Hulim returned directly to the academy.
Today is the Sabbath and there are no classes in the college. Her roommate Mike seems to have gone out as well and was not seen in the dormitory. So Hulim had dinner alone and then went to the big library to read.
To delve into the study of magic circles, one must have a vast accumulation of knowledge. The Great Library of Manax has an extremely large collection of books and is an excellent place to study magic circles. Hulim spends most of his free time at the academy here.
A few hours later, it was completely dark. Hulim checked the time and returned to the dormitory.
"You haven't come back yet..."
Her roommate Mi Ke still hadn't returned to the dormitory. Hulim didn't think much about it. After washing up, she went straight to sleep.
