Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

When we had finished forging, the first thing that Drogath did was…

”Ha, is that a blade or a piece of glass art that you’ve made? It seems more like a piece of decoration than an actual weapon.” He said this in a derisive tone with a snort at the end.

I just ignored this and asked the Dwarven King who was the judge, ”How are we going to compare them?”

The Dwarven King said with a nod, ”We’ll use the most simple method, we’ll let them clash with each other.”

I turned to look at Drogath before walking forward to the table that had been prepared.

This was the most simple method, but there was no doubt that this was the most effective method to crush a person. After all, there was nothing that one could say when their piece of work was smashed directly by someone else’s.

Drogath just gave a snort after seeing me like this and walked over to the table as well.

The two of us brought forth our swords and placed them on the table.

Drogath’s sword was without a doubt a fine piece of work.

It was a fine sword that was made of mithril, a sword that wasn’t lacking compared to the one that the Dwarven King had made.

But just this alone made me reveal a disappointed look.

If this was it, then I might have taken this too seriously…

When Drogath saw the look on my face, his face couldn’t help twisting as he said, ”What is that look for? Do you really think that you can act that arrogantly?”

I just gave a sigh and shook my head before saying, ”So who goes first?”

Drogath’s face twisted a bit more and he narrowed his eyes to look at me, but then he said with a snort, ”You can go first. I don’t want you complaining that I didn’t give you a chance later.”

I just shook my head and said, ”No, that’s you. So you can go first.”

”You, you, you!” Drogath looked like he wanted to explode the moment that he heard this.

The way that his face twisted, it was almost as if he wanted to beat me up on the spot.

The Dwarven King also looked at me with a strange look.

He knew that this was just an act, but even he was getting second hand influence from this. Even he wanted to beat me up with the arrogant way that I was acting, so there was no need to mention Drogath.

But Drogath knew that he couldn’t do that in front of such a crowd.

The moment that he did…something really bad would happen.

Especially since the other side was a human.

He knew as the faction leader of the anti human faction that they weren’t even close to being ready for this.

So he endured what he was feeling.

Instead, he turned his anger to something else.

Since he was being asked to go first, then he would go first.

He didn’t believe this flashy sword that looked like it was made of glass would be able to resist his finely made mithril sword.

”Since you insist, then I will go first.”

Drogath picked up his sword and was brining it up as if he was about to swing down on the glass sword.

But before he could, the Dwarven King stopped him, ”Wait, before you do, let him inject mana into the sword. This sword is a rune sword, so it needs mana to power it up first.”

”Che.” Drogath said under his breath.

As one of the best blacksmiths in the Dwarven Kingdom, Drogath naturally recognized the runes on the sword. While he didn’t know exactly what they did, he did know that these would strengthen the sword when activated.

He had wanted this chance to smash this sword before he was able to activate the runes.

This runes gave him a bad feeling, so he had wanted to destroy this sword before anything could happen.

But the Dwarven King stopped him.

Drogath brought his sword down and waited for me to move over to the sword.

Even if he wanted to just ignore the Dwarven King and shatter this glass sword, he had to hold himself back in front of the crowd. At the very least, he had to act like he was following the rules properly.

But to his and the Dwarven King’s surprise, I just gave a shrug and said, ”There’s no problem. There’s no need for that.”

The expressions of both the Dwarven King and Drogath changed the moment that they heard this.

Drogath once again had a look of rage, but the Dwarven King revealed a worried look.

He slowly said, ”Are you sure about that? Most of the power in a sword with runes lies in the runes themselves. If you don’t activate them, then the sword won’t be at its full power.”

Though it sounded like he was just slowly explaining what a rune sword was, he was actually putting silent pressure on Zwein.

He was using this to stress to him to stop playing around and to take this seriously.

But all I did was give a shrug and said, ”It’s not worth it for him. There’s no need to activate the runes against a sword of this caliber.”

The expressions of both the Dwarven King and Drogath changed again.

This time, Drogath couldn’t take the rage that filled his chest, but then again…he didn’t have to.

He was perfectly justified to explode when his opponent was looking down on him this much.

He turned to the Dwarven King and said, ”Since he’s given his permission, I can go, right?”

The Dwarven King hesitated a bit, but he still gave a nod in the end.

In this case, he would just trust Zwein.

Drogath gave a snort before saying, ”You want to act tough? Then I’ll go all out to help you!”

After saying this, he swung his sword down at the glass sword on the table with all of his might.

”Crack!”
