Swordsman Runes
The Part 32
It's been a week since I sent the mines and the magic weapons. Come to think of it, the people inside the mine don't know yet that the owners of the fort changed.
But strangely all this time they did not come out even a little, therefore I decided to check on them.
If they die in the mine it will make my head hurt even more. I went into the secret soldier room, I still didn't tell the others this.
The deeper I found a wooden door that was colored like a stone on the ground. There are no handles and it is opened by being pulled
If it wasn't for me being able to use the Force it would be almost impossible to open this.
As soon as I get in there it starts to look like mine. There were wooden skeletons that held the entire cave and countless branched roads.
What is unique here is that it is very bright because of the many glowing mosses that are in the skeleton.
Although not as bright as a torch but can be considered as bright as a crystal. I kept walking to all the branches here and found no one.
Is this mine abandoned? Surprisingly I felt it was impossible. Although it looks long ago the condition of this mine is quite well maintained
But why deserted huh? This time I walked again meticulously and found another door that had a stone-like color.
This it? I opened the door and went back downstairs. The same thing continues to happen until 4 times the new fifth level is heard the sound of people mining.
I walked there heard a heavy sound from the "Mine results we gave 3 months ago. This time we haven't got anything"(Man)
I entered and stared at the five muscular and bearded Dwarves mining. They looked at me too and were surprised
"Who are you?"(Dwarf 1) "How come? Isn't this a fortress?"(Dwarf 2)
"Ah... I'm sorry we actually captured this fort" I told you all about the conquest war to take this fort and the five of them quietly listened
"So yes. I can't believe our best-made fort was captured"(Dwarf 1)
"But from the story he used sneaky tricks should the outside of the fort still be fine"(Dwarf 2)
"So what do you want here? Young commander"(Dwarf 3) "No. I'm just curious about the miners here, because for a month you guys have not come out at all"
"Ohh... About that, no need to worry we have a settlement here and there is a food supply. Looks like we've been trying to find food for another 2 months"(Dwarf 2)
"Usually food is delivered the same Rodigur? How about now?"(Dwarf 1) "Right as well"(Dwarf 3) "Yes, you could say this crisis again mah"(Dwarf 4) "Negotiate it with you. Find food outside and we'll make 1 magic weapon every 3 months"(Dwarf 5)
"What kind of deal did you make with Rodigur?" "Why do you want to know about it?"(Dwarf 1) "Certainly because it matters"
"Mine goods as much as 500kg and one magic weapon every 3 months are exchanged for groceries for 100 people every 3 months"(Dwarf 2) "Why did you tell?"("(Dwarf 3) "That's important for negotiation"(Dwarf 4)
100 People yes, the food for 100 people is about 2 Ero for 3 months about 1 sero 86 ero or if rounded to 2 seros every 3 months.
"What kind of grain are you mining?" "Mithril, Iron, and Steel"(Dwarf 2) Mithril? It is almost never seen
Even what I saw from earlier all they got was iron seeds, "How come?"
"Why do you want to know?"(Dwarf 1) "Look. Your existence alone is already extraordinary, I want as much as possible to hide your existence"
If the kingdom knows here there is a Dwarf, the kingdom will take this place on its own. Not even though I'll be pressured
And this place will be a battlefield after I successfully defend this place. I don't want to deal with the other nobles
"Hiding us and making a profit?"(Dwarf 4) "It seems so"(Dwarf 5)
"I see what you mean. We have to pay to stay. It's just that we can't tell our secrets"(Dwarf 1)
"so yeah. No problem then. Forget about magic weapons I don't need, less Mithril number one-time possible if need of 500kg just give 1\2 kg of mithril only"
"Wait first. Does that not matter? Doesn't that include corruption?"(Dwarf 1)
"Indeed. The important thing is that you guys are safe, my goal with this is to make it look as if Mithril just happens to exist and just a little bit"
Mithril is rare. The raw price alone can reach 40 Ero per Kilogram
Rodigur could have survived the war all this time.
Mithril's weapon is famous for its strength, otherwise this is part of Rodigur's attention surely we will also be in trouble
"Witchcraft weapon?"(Dwarf 2) "Hey don't talk about it!..."((Hey don't talk about it!.Dwarf 3) Seeing 3 people covering one Dwarf's mouth is funny.
"I don't need that. It will only reveal your existence"
"really that? It's just that with your request it's impossible for us to eat enough"(Dwarf 1)
"Indeed. I'm not asking you to stop mining Mithril just reduce it to 3kg per 3 months plus 1/2kg earlier. Consider it for your meal expenses"
"4 Kg and bring 4 barrels of acholol as well"(Dwarf 5) "Don't every 3 months. Every year"(Dwarf 3) They laugh
"Looks like you're a good kid"(Dwarf 1)
"No. I'm just not stupid, I know because you guys are Rodigur and Stor fighting"
"Why do you know about it?"(Dwarf 1) "Your presence here is proof"
"You're right. We'll tell you our secret"(Dwarf 1) "No... You don't do that!!"(Dwarf 5)
"I believe him. But let us introduce ourselves first. I'm Dwarsen, he's Dwardon, there's Warson, next to Fushran, the last Dalder"(Dwarsen)
"Oh I'm Josh. You could say for a while that takes care of this fort" "You sure you want to tell me about it?"((Dalde)
"Looks like he can be trusted"(Dwarsen)
"What if he kills us to take it"(Dwardon) "Shouldn't. I'm sure he can be trusted. Come follow us"(Dwarsen)
They walk deeper into the cave. I just follow, the longer the ceiling of the cave the shorter.
It was fortunate that it did not touch my head "Side us, Welcome to the village of Monssu"(Dwarsen)
They opened the door like a big stone. Inside it was filled with moss light and there was a small village here with everything made of stone.
