"I heard Master Rôme has come to Chaos City."
"The Issen Castle branch received a huge sum of money some time ago. It was deposited by Master Rôme. I heard he left Issen Castle long ago, but I didn't expect him to come to Chaos City."
Hill and Ian sat opposite each other for breakfast as they chatted.
"Interesting. I wonder if it's the city lord's castle's doing that could make this old antique leave the castle that he had been holed up in for hundreds of years to spend his old age here," Ian said with a smile as he took a bite of the white egg.
"Didn't you have some dealings with him when you were young? He's not someone the city lord's castle can move. Back then, the king of the Roth Empire offered something the city lord's castle couldn't afford. "Hill used a silk handkerchief to wipe his mouth.
Ian stroked his chin with a puzzled expression, and said, "That's exactly what I'm curious about. What made him deposit all the money in the warehouse, and then come all the way to Chaos City?"
"If I didn't remember wrongly, the latest weapon that he forged should be Boss Mag's cleaver," Scheer said.
"Cleaver? Could he be here for Amy's? " Ian said with surprise. However, he shook his head, and said, "I don't think so. He's not particular about food."
"Perhaps you can ask him this question yourself. He shouldn't have many acquaintances in Chaos City." Hill stood up and left.
"That's a good suggestion. Although the deal back then didn't work out, at least I'm familiar with him." Ian ate the remaining half of the egg slowly before instructing, "Prepare the carriage. We're going to the city lord's castle."
…
"Master, where should we set up our new workshop?" Joey asked curiously as he helped Rôme put on his coat.
Joss was also looking at Master Rôme expectantly. Although they were far away from Issen Castle, they were still blacksmiths as long as they had a workshop.
"Let's think about this after we have our meal," Rôme said nonchalantly as he walked out.
"Do we need to meet up with the convoy?" Joey asked again.
"I'll leave it to you. Someone from the Mayor's Palace will take you there. Once I've confirmed the location of the workshop, you can bring the equipment to the new place," Rôme said to Joey.
"Yes." Joey nodded and left quickly.
"Master, the City Lord Mansion has prepared breakfast for us …" Joss said.
"No need. Let's go straight to Mamy's for breakfast." Rôme shook her head and walked straight to the door.
"Good morning, Master Rôme. Are you heading to Amy's?" Dicus asked with a smile when he saw Rôme walking out of the courtyard.
"Yes." Rôme nodded.
"Then I'll take you there. I'm a regular at Amy's, and I haven't had breakfast yet," Dicus said with a smile.
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Rôme didn't refuse. Besides, it would be troublesome to ask someone for directions. However, it seemed that Mamy's was really famous. Even a random worker from the Mayor's Palace was a regular at the restaurant.
The three of them walked out of the Mayor's Palace and were about to get into the carriage when a luxurious black carriage stopped in front of the Mayor's Palace. The coachman opened the door and Ian walked out. He looked at Rôme and the others who were about to get into the carriage and smiled, "Master Rôme, are you going out?"
"You are?" Rôme looked back at Ian and thought for a while. His eyes lit up, "You're the scammer?"
"How can you say that? I'm the owner of a money house …" Ian's face darkened. He didn't expect Rôme to think that he was a scammer.
At his level, there was no need for him to make friends with any master blacksmiths. He didn't lack anything, and he didn't need a legendary weapon. That thing wasn't as attractive to him as a high-quality fishing rod.
It was just that he was getting old, and there were fewer and fewer old friends. He had spent some time at Issen Castle when he opened up the market, and an old friend came to visit, so he wanted to meet him.
"That's what everyone called you back then. I just didn't expect to put my money in your money house now." Rôme smiled. The last time he saw Ian was over 40 years ago. He was still quite young back then. In order to make him deposit his money in his money house, he stood guard outside the forge almost every day. He was even more attentive than those who came to ask for weapons, and left a deep impression on him.
Decades passed in the blink of an eye, and he had become the owner of the largest money house on the Norland Continent. He had also become a little old man.
"I didn't expect that I would have to wait for my granddaughter to complete this task." Ian shrugged. He couldn't help but smile when he thought of the past. He looked at Rôme, and said, "Master, where are you going? It's rare for us to meet. Why don't we have a cup of tea together? "
Rôme directly boarded the horse-drawn carriage, and bluntly said, "There's no need for tea this early in the morning. I'm going to Mamy's for breakfast, and I have to book a place for the forge after that. I don't have time for tea."
"Then we'll take our leave, Mr. Ian," Dicus said with a smile. He boarded the horse-drawn carriage, and instructed the coachman to go to Mamy's.
He's in such a hurry to go to Mamy's for breakfast this early in the morning. Don't tell me he's really here because of that Meg brat? Ian looked on with surprise as the horse-drawn carriage disappeared into the distance. He didn't expect his invitation to be rejected. He was still thinking of recommending a few good shops to Rôme because of their old friendship.
"Let's go to Mamy's and have a look." Ian waved his hand.
"Master, didn't you already have breakfast this morning?" the butler standing behind him asked.
"I'm only 70% full. Let's go and see what kind of magic this Mamy's has that could make this old fellow Rôme move all the way here." Ian turned and boarded the horse-drawn carriage.
"Let's go to Mamy's," the butler instructed the coachman before entering the carriage and closing the door.
"Is Master Rôme an old acquaintance of Mr. Mak?" Dicus asked Rôme curiously in the horse-drawn carriage.
"We've met at Issen Castle. I've eaten his dishes," Rôme answered.
"It's indeed very difficult to put down Mr. Mak's dishes after eating them."
"Yes. That steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers is the most delicious food I've ever eaten." Rôme nodded with a smile. He couldn't help feeling a little excited at the thought of being able to eat it again soon.
Dicus looked at Rôme, and could vaguely guess the reason why Rôme moved his workshop all the way to Chaos City.
Mr. Mak was really a rare talent. He managed to attract such a great blacksmith to Chaos City with just a steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers.
The horse-drawn carriage stopped. Dicus lifted the curtain and took a look. He stood up, and said, "We've arrived at Mamy's."
Rôme alighted too. When he saw the long line of people at the entrance of the restaurant, he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "So many people?"
"We're considered early. This line will stretch all the way to the square," Dicus said with a smile.
