"That's right. I received the order from the chef from Chaos City that you reported to me yesterday. My job today is to forge a cleaver for him that can cut through the skull of a 10th-tier magic beast before nightfall." Rôme nodded. He raised his hammer and smashed it on the metal block on the forging table as he began to explain the hammering techniques used to forge different weapons.
Although Joey and Joss were puzzled as to why Master Rôme would suddenly accept that chef's order, they immediately calmed down and listened to the master's explanation seriously when he began to explain the forging techniques.
Outside the workshop, Hadeng and the rest had also arrived early, and formed a long line at the door.
There were also many people who had heard from Hadeng yesterday that someone was looking for a Rôme master to forge a cleaver, and were here to watch the joke.
"Is that fellow who's looking for a master to forge a cleaver here?"
Everyone's gaze swept across the line. There were two human knights, but they didn't look like chefs.
"Did that guy know what's good for him and leave?" Hadeng, who was at the back of the line, also looked left and right in surprise. Even he wasn't confident that he could get a Rôme master to forge a weapon for him, let alone a chef who wanted a cleaver.
The news of a chef from Chaos City looking for a Rôme master to forge a cleaver spread like wildfire in Issen Castle, and became the source of joy in Issen Castle today.
Meg checked out of his room, and left his luggage at the hotel temporarily. He was about to bring Amy out for breakfast when a voice rang out.
"Mr. Meg? You're here. "Just then, a voice sounded from behind.
"Oh, it's Mr. Godala," Meg said with a smile as he looked at Godala, who was walking over from the side.
Godala was also staying in this hotel, so it wasn't strange for them to meet. It seemed like he had just had his breakfast, and was chatting with a few people who were also dressed like businessmen.
Godala walked over, and softly said to Meg with a smile, "I heard you guys have become famous. It's spread all over Issen Castle that a chef from Chaos City is looking for a Rôme master to forge a cleaver."
"You can become famous like this?" Meg was a little surprised. After coming to Issen Castle, he did not do anything out of line. He was like a pure and innocent person.
"You don't know Master Rôme's status in Issen Castle. Asking him to make a kitchen knife is an insult to all the blacksmiths in Issen Castle," Godala said in a low voice.
"I see." Meg was deep in thought. If they knew that Master Rôme had agreed to make a kitchen knife for him, the whole Issen Castle would probably go crazy.
"You didn't see Master Rôme yesterday, right? Don't worry. There are so many people lining up outside the master's door every day, but they never get to see him. You'll get used to it, "Godala comforted.
"It's okay, I'm in a good mood," Meg said with a smile. He was afraid that Godala's reaction would be too big and attract too much attention, so Meg did not make it clear.
"Father, I'm hungry." Amy looked up at Meg, and expectantly said, "Let's go and eat something good."
"I don't have anything to do today anyway. Why don't I bring you to Issen Castle? Not many people know what's good here as well as I do," Godala said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Godala." Meg's eyes lit up. It was naturally the best to have a guide since they were new here. It could help them avoid a lot of trouble.
After walking out of Tam Hotel, the light from the hole above lit up the street. The shops on both sides of the street were all open. Most of the people walking on the street were dwarves, and one or two people from other races could be seen occasionally.
Issen Castle's weapons were popular on the Norland Continent, so many merchants gathered there. They brought rare items from all over to Issen Castle to sell, and then bought weapons from Issen Castle to sell all over the world. They made a lot of money in one round trip.
The dwarves were considered a neutral race. They had a good relationship with all the other races on the Norland Continent, so they allowed all races to enter Issen Castle and do business.
Godala told Meg some of the rules of Issen Castle and the dwarves on the way. He brought Meg and the rest to eat a kind of big flatbread called the dwarf flatbread for breakfast. The flatbread was fried in a pan of oil, and then baked in a high-temperature oven until it was crispy. It was crispy, and there were even salty dried vegetables in the middle. It tasted like a combination of sesame seed cake and guokui. It was crispy and delicious, and didn't feel greasy at all. It really surprised Meg.
"The flatbread here is not bad, right?" Godala took a bite of the flatbread in his hand, and smilingly said, "There are hundreds of flatbread shops in Issen Castle, but none of them make as good as this one. I don't usually bring people here."
"Mm-hmm. This flatbread fried chicken is delicious!" Amy nodded her little head. She hugged the flatbread with both hands like a little squirrel, and munched on it with relish.
"It is indeed a very delicious flatbread." Meg nodded. This was a benefit that he had thought of. If he were to look for it himself, he definitely wouldn't be able to eat such delicious flatbread.
After breakfast, Godala brought Meg and Amy to visit a few famous scenic spots in Issen Castle. They had a lot of delicious snacks along the way, and had a lot of fun.
When it was close to evening, Godala looked at Meg, and said, "Brother Meg, why don't I bring you to the blacksmith I know to make a cleaver for you? Although he can't compare to Master Rôme, he is still one of the top blacksmiths in Issen Castle. With my friendship with him, I can even get him to make one for you for free. Let's go over now. You tell him what kind of cleaver you want, and I will bring you guys out for good food tonight. "
"Actually, Master Rôme already promised to make me a cleaver last night. Looking at the time, it's time to go get one now," Meg said with a smile as he glanced at his watch.
"Wh-what?" Godala was stunned for a moment, and felt that he had misheard something.
"After Grandpa ate the fish head that Father made yesterday, he promised Father to make him a cleaver," Amy added, and looked at Godala expectantly. Amy added, and looked at Godala expectantly. "Uncle merchant, what's the delicious thing you're talking about?"
"Master Rôme agreed to make you a cleaver!!!"
Godala's voice went up a few pitches, and then he hurriedly covered his mouth as he looked at Meg in shock.
As a merchant who had been in and out of Issen Castle for twenty to thirty years, he knew very well what Master Rôme represented. Those who could order weapons from him were all powerhouses of various races, and they had to pay an extremely high price.
It was said that a merchant was fortunate enough to order a weapon from Master Rôme, and immediately retired after selling it.
Of course, this was only a legend.
To order a weapon from Master Rôme, one had to have both status and money.
In the past two years, Master Rôme had not accepted a single order, nor had he produced any new products.
But now, Meg said that Master Rôme had agreed to make him a cleaver, and that he could get it today?
This was even more shocking than Master Rôme agreeing to make him a weapon!
