Chapter 231 Dwarf Blacksmith (I)



After the main things were said, there was nothing else left. Natalia wanted the butler to take Livia to the guest room first, change clothes, and then have Honasan take him to find the blacksmith.

But Livia refused. Of course, he just refused to stay in the mansion. He was thinking about trying it with the collected alchemical materials when he returned to the caravan at night. Although he had the experience of refining hundreds of times in his memory, he had never come into contact with alchemy in reality. Naturally, he was itching to try and was very curious.

Finally, Livia was taken by Honasan to the stable to pick up her brown horse, and then went to the blacksmith shop in the west of the city to find the dwarf master.

After walking around for a while, Livia followed Honasan to the back of the mansion, where the stables were.

Phew~ It’s not good that this house is too big. It takes a lot of time to walk around.

It took more than ten minutes of walking to reach the stable behind the mansion, which made Livia complain in his heart. He couldn't help but complain. After coming to the Viscount's mansion, he was actually busy with a few things. But he came early in the morning and it was almost noon now. He spent most of the time wandering around in the mansion.

Despite all the complaints, Livia followed Honasan into the stables with a calm expression. Yes, there was a large stable behind the mansion. Many strong horses were galloping wildly under the command of some armored guards, as if they were undergoing training.

"What do you think of these war horses that I trained myself?"

Honasan walked in front and asked Livia with some pride.

“Although I don’t know much about horses, these horses look pretty good and well trained.”

Livia smiled and echoed the answer.

Hearing his answer, Honasan looked back at him with a smile on his face.

"Lord Honasan."

Seeing him enter the stable, the guards who were training the horses trotted over and one of them saluted him.

Honasan turned around and nodded, his face regained its composure and he asked, "Where is the brown horse from a few days ago now?"

“That brown horse from a while ago?

I think it's in stable number four."

The guard who was asked thought for a moment and answered uncertainly.

"Take us there."

"yes."

The guard responded and quickly turned around to lead the way.

Honasan motioned Livia to follow him, then he followed the guards and walked towards the right side of the stable.

There are four stables in the mansion's horse farm, divided into one, two, three and four. Stable No. 1 is used to raise the best horses in the farm and the special horses for Natalia, Honasan and others. Stable No. 2 raises excellent horses of fine breeds. Stable No. 3 raises the second-rate and poorer horses in the farm. The last stable, No. 4, is responsible for managing and feeding the horses for the guests of the mansion and the young horses that have just been bought from outside.

When Honasan and Livia followed the guards to stable number four, a servant was leading Livia's brown horse to the back to brush its hair. When it saw Livia, the brown horse snorted, broke free from the servant, and trotted to Livia.

Watching the brown horse throw the servant to the ground, and then excitedly trotting to her and rubbing its head against her, Livia smiled helplessly and stroked its head and neck.

"Knight Honasan, I'm sorry."

Livia looked at the servant who was climbing up with some difficulty, and apologized to Honasan beside her with some embarrassment.

It looked like the servant had fallen pretty hard, and it took him a long time to get up with difficulty. His face looked extremely painful, as if he had fallen somewhere serious.

The servant had never expected that the horse he was leading would suddenly do such a thing. He was pulled to the ground with great force and fell violently without him noticing. After all, he had been raising horses for nearly ten years and was considered a professional. After raising the brown horse for a few days, he naturally found out that the horse had a very docile personality. Who would have thought that it would suddenly lose its temper?

However, when he stood up and saw the brown horse rubbing against the chest of a man in cloth clothes excitedly, he smiled bitterly. He finally understood why the brown horse suddenly struggled to break free from him.

"Haha, it's okay, it's just a minor injury. Kati, take him down to rest. I'll allow him to rest for three days. Bring my horse here too."

Honasan smiled indifferently, then gave instructions to the guard who was leading the way.

Livia smiled and didn't take it too seriously. He could see that the servant had only some broken skin, mainly because he fell quite hard and his internal organs were slightly shaken. In fact, he would be able to recover in a day or two. Moreover, even Honasan said that it was nothing, so he naturally wouldn't take this little thing to heart. The most he would do was to compensate the servant with one or two farons.

"But you have a very close relationship with this horse."

Honasan looked at the brown horse rubbing against Livia's chest with some surprise and said that it was not easy for a horse and its owner to achieve such a relationship. He himself had only achieved such a mutually dependent intimate relationship with two horses. You know, he had trained at least two thousand horses over the years.

Livia's smile became awkward. After all, he had no idea why he was so close to the brown horse. It seemed that the brown horse showed its closeness to him as soon as they met. He didn't know how to respond when Honasan mentioned it.

Fortunately, Honasan did not dwell on this matter. He first looked at the brown horse with some appreciation and nodded slightly, then sighed, which made Livia feel a little puzzled and completely confused.

Then Honasan and Livia stopped talking. Honasan kept staring at the brown horse in front of Livia. Livia stroked the horse's back and didn't know how to start.

When Livia felt that the atmosphere was becoming gradually awkward, the guard who had just left came over leading a very tall gray horse, which freed Livia from the awkward atmosphere and made her feel relieved.

"Your horse is very good, and my horse Nick is not much worse, what do you think?"

Honasan took the gray horse from the guards and said to Livia with a smile, his tone full of confidence.

Livia had no desire to compete with the horse, and seeing Honasan's confident look, she pretended to be confident and praised him a few times.

Honasan didn't say anything else. He took a set of horse harness from the guard and handed it to Livia. His gray horse was already equipped with saddle, stirrups and other harnesses, but Livia's brown horse had nothing else except horseshoes.

Livia hesitated for a moment before accepting the brand new set of horse harness. It was not that he could not see the other party's intention. Replacing himself with a brand new set of horse harness was nothing more than doing him a small favor. However, he had no choice. He could not just offend the other party and refuse to appreciate this kindness.

After Livia fastened the saddle to the brown horse, Honasan smiled and said nothing more. He let Livia ride on the horse with him towards the west of the city.
