The Hard Work Will Never Betray Me
CH 13



"Done !"


Turns out, it's done. For the first time in her life, a girl forged her own equipment!”


"Congratulations!"


“Well, that's pretty good for the first time.You'll make the same thing every day from now on, so you better remember what it's like.


"Yes!"


It was dimly lit. There was almost no light in the workshop, so the furnace fire was faintly visible in the darkness.


Amidst all this, the finished product in the hands of the girl – a knife with a length of about 20 centimeters – reflects a little sunlight and shines silvery.


…………” it is beautiful.”


The girl muttered. I feel the exact same thing.


"Oh, . I'm sorry I made you spend the whole day with me. I'm sorry for my daughter.


The teacher approached and spoke to me. He seems more friendly than I expected.


No, it's okay. I was the one who insisted on seeing it. Sorry to bother you all of a sudden.


“Don't worry about that. You have encouraged my daughter. As a thank you, you can choose any weapon you want and bring it.”


“Ah, is it okay? ”


“Of course, the ones we have here are not that expensive. Expensive ones are basically custom made. If it is done, it will not cost you much. Feel free to take it.”


“Well, I'll take it for that. …… ”


I pointed to the throwing knife with a blade of about five centimeters displayed on a shelf near the wall.


"Can I have some of this?"


“You sure that's enough? There are more powerful swords and such.'


The master asked me with a gaze as if he thought the boys would choose something like that.


It's not that I don't want a sword or anything like that, but with my current muscle strength, I can't help it.


“No, I like this one. It seems to work pretty well.”


"So that's it. I've got a lot of stock in the back, so I'll give you about 20 for now.


"Oh, are you going to give me that much?"


"What, you don't want it?"


"Okay, thank you so much!"


“Thank you, I will use it to train my magic. I just found a new way to apply magic, although it is still in the conceptual stage.”


While mister and I made such a deal, I must have come to my senses. A girl walked towards me. She was very dirty with soot and sweat, but her face was radiant and beautiful.


"Thank you for today" he said. “Thanks to you, I can take a step forward.”


“i didn't do anything. . You did it yourself”


"No, I still want to do it."


"You've worked well.'


"I want you to take this."


"You want me to take this? Are you sure? This is the first thing you've done."


“Tanpamu, this knife will never come to this world. That's why I want you to have this knife.


The girl who told me this seemed to be very nervous.I think she thought that I might not accept it.


"…… 'If that's the case, I'll accept it gratefully."


"Thank you very much!"


As soon as I said thank you I received it, the girl's face smiled very happily.


"I'll take good care of this knife, but after everything we've done today, I don't know your name yet. Whatis yourname? My name is Eberhard.”


Given that I had never heard of the girl's name, I introduced myself. The girl seemed to have also forgotten her name, and introduced herself in a panic.


“, A-I'm Meir, Meir Arendahl.


“So you Meir. May I call you May?”


When I asked him, he became red and started to get confused.


"…… nickname, I've been given a nickname!"


The panic is incredible. This girl may have never had a friend before, just like me.


"May?"


“It's okay if you call me Mei. I do too."


“You can call me Hal.”


"All right then. Hall, .....”


This was the first time she had called her friends by their nicknames, and her first reaction was adorable. . Although their first impressions were contradictory, their true personalities were like this.


"Oh, will you come again tomorrow?"


"Of course, I'll be here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. . We have a large yard so you can run as you please.


“You have a garden? You're rich, aren't you?”


"You think so? Maybe so, hahaha!”


, With heart I said, I do not want my identity to be exposed. I thought I would invite them to my own house, but if they knew my identity before I invited them, he probably won't come to my house.


I would love to have a friend who is important to me. Lily has the rank of a duke, and it's hard to have a friend in the rank of a duke that I get along with easily.


Mei's father gave me a lot of throwing knives, for helping Mei, Now I have to bring home a lot of metal.


Mei and the master drove me away, and I walked home through town afterwards, shuffling my clothes and bag. Causing a slightly noisy sound.


When I returned home, my mother asked where I got the large number of knives from, and when I told her that I had befriended the forging princess. I think there's something weird about that.
