Drogath narrowed his eyes as he looked at .
There was a tense silence that hung in the air as no one said a thing.
But in the end, Drogath said in a voice filled with disdain, "Who do you think you are? In my own shop and in my own ho, you're trying to tell what to do?"
He wanted to pull his hand away, but he found that there was sothing that was preventing him from doing so.
Why was this human so strong?
I just calmly looked at him which made Drogath feel a bit of pressure.
He didn't know why he was feeling pressured from this human, but there was this strange invisible pressure that fell onto him.
I had been thinking about how to deal with Drogath since we had last t and I had co to a single conclusion.
The only way that I would be able to stop him without causing too much trouble was if…
"A big man picking on a woman like this, he really is a great man, isn't he?"
My voice wasn't too loud or soft, but everyone in the shop was able to hear it clearly.
There were many that looked like they agreed with , but there were still so that supported Drogath.
These were clearly the mbers of the anti human faction along with Drogath…
No, even before that, they were clearly just dwarves that shared the sa misogynistic views as him. After all, not a single one of them had even flinched when Drogath went to hit Elsa.
So it was clear that there weren't any good mbers of the anti human faction.
That made it clear why the Dwarven King didn't do anything to them.
They could be much more troubleso than they currently were, but Drogath could be considered a llow leader. Since he didn't cause any trouble and even restrained the rest, there was no reason for the Dwarven King to do anything to him.
But there was a personal matter that the Dwarven King wanted to take care of.
Drogath's face twisted when he heard this and he was about to say sothing.
I just didn't give him that chance as I suddenly said, "Since you're a big man, how about you prove it?"
The look of rage that had been on Drogath's face slowly turned into a look of confusion as he looked at .
He didn't understand what I was trying to say.
So I just calmly said, "If you're a man, how about you accept a forging duel from ?"
This ti, Drogath's face filled with shock and disbelief as he looked at , trying to figure out if I was being serious or not. When he saw that my serious expression didn't change, he couldn't help being more shocked.
After a long silence, he finally said in a slow voice, "Are you serious?"
There were many dwarves around them that were looking at them with the sa expression on their faces.
After all, this was a human challenging a dwarf to a forging duel.
This seed like nothing more than a joke to them since they didn't believe that a human would be able to take a dwarf on when it ca to forging.
I just gave a simple nod in response to this.
There was so laughter that ca from around us, but Drogath looked at with a strange look.
It seed like he was more well inford than I thought.
This human was challenging him to a forging duel, this was simply insulting him and his pride.
But Drogath had heard before that this human had even had a forging duel with the Dwarven King. There were even rumours that he had beaten the Dwarven King in their forging duel.
Of course, he wouldn't believe such false rumours since as the Dwarven King's childhood friend, he had a very good idea just how skilled the Dwarven King was.
He didn't believe that a human would be able to defeat him in a forging duel even if he was beaten to death.
Still, as the leader of the anti human faction, he had to be cautious of these things.
He couldn't just act rashly or else it would all be over for them…
But in the end, his pride still won out.
He didn't want to let this human belittle him like this.
"A forging duel? What are you willing to wager then?" Drogath said in a dark voice, almost as if he was trying to threaten him.
I just calmly said, "What are you willing to offer?"
Drogath couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this, but then he narrowed his eyes and said in the sa dark voice, "What if I said that I wanted your head."
There was a cold gasp that ca from around us, but I just looked back at Drogath calmly when he said this without saying a word.
There was a silence that lingered for a bit before Drogath started saying, "Well, if you don't have the cour…"
Before he could finish, I suddenly said, "Then are you willing to lay down your hamr if you lose?"
Drogath's face imdiately twisted when he heard this as he looked at with a very ugly expression.
Laying down the hamr…that was not as simple as it sounded to the dwarves.
This was a term that ant…quitting forging forever.
If a dwarf ever made a vow that they would lay down their hamr, it would an that they would never forge again.
So for the dwarves that had such passion for forging, this was a sentence that was worse than death.
It wasn't ever used unless there was a serious grudge between groups.
Drogath slowly said, "Do you even understand what that ans?"
I calmly said, "If you want my life, then I'll co for yours. But I'll make you live a life that's worse than death."
Drogath couldn't help taking a step back when he heard this.
Just what was this human?
