This dwarf came over and sat down on the sofa in front of us.


    It was because Rondo was from the Silvermine Family that we were being treated this way.


    Otherwise, if another dwarf tried to bring humans into the Dwarven Kingdom, he would have already been locked up with said humans.


    The guards at the border at least had to show some respect to the Silvermine Family.


    So that was why this dwarf hade to see us.


    This dwarf was the captain of the border guards, so he was someone that was considered quite important.


    After sitting down, the captain looked at us…or rather looked at Rondo and asked, "What is this about?"


    Rondo calmly looked at the captain and said, "I want to bring some guests back to my family."


    The captain knitted his brows when he heard this before saying, "But they are humans?"


    Rondo just said in the same calm voice, "So?"


    The captain revealed a bitter smile as he said, "Young me stoker of the Silvermine Family, you know thews of our Dwarven Kingdom. You should know that my hands are tied in this matter. It isn''t that I don''t want to help, it''s that I can''t help."


    Rondo slightly knitted his brows when he heard this since he knew what the captain was talking about.


    By all rights, he should have contacted the Silvermine Family and then brought this group of humans here.


    With the influence of the Silvermine Family, it would have been easy for them to get passage into the Dwarven Kingdom for these humans.


    But he hadn''t been able to wait because of all the excitement that he had felt over the past few days.


    First, there was the new forging technique that he wanted to bring back.


    Not only was he bringing back a new technique, he was also bringing back the weapon made with the new technique and the one who taught him this new technique.


    The other thing that he was excited by was naturally the beer that Haley had brought with them.


    If there was one thing that dwarves were excited by, it was either forging or alcohol.


    This time, it was both, so he had forgotten himself in his excitement.


    But it wasn''t as if he could just send these humans away now that they were at the border.


    At the same time, if he wanted to get ess through the Silvermine Family, it would take a while before they could arrange this.


    With the time that it would take, it was very likely that the humans would be offended.


    So he had to do something to take care of this matter now.


    After thinking for a long time, he finally thought of something.


    Rondo looked at the captain and said, "These humans are special forging talents that we have invited to our Silvermine Family. Because of that, there is no need for them to get a special pass to enter our kingdom."


    The captain knitted his brows when he heard this.


    He knew that this was indeed thew, but…for someone to be deemed a special forging talent, they had to have immense talent that could even suppress that of a dwarf.


    Naturally that also had to be proven, so it couldn''t just be stated that easily.


    If this kid from the Silvermine Family expected him to believe that so easily, then he really was a fool.


    The captain''s expression didn''t change as he said, "Since he''s considered a special forging talent, then you should be able to show me some of his works, right?"


    Rondo didn''t hesitate to give a nod as he said, "If you send someone to check with the others at the carriages, tell them to ask for ''that'' de and they''ll know what you''re talking about. They will give you one of his works to bring over."


    The captain was surprised by how confident Rondo was.


    After raising a brow to look at Rondo for a bit, he followed his advice in the end.


    He turned to one of his guards and gave him instructions just as Rondo had told him to.


    The guard ran off to fulfill these orders and it didn''t take long before he came back with a package that was quiterge.


    Based on the way that the cloth covered it, it was clear that this thing was some kind of sword.


    After the guard ced it onto the table, the captain lifted off the cloth to see the true appearance of this sword.


    When he saw it, he couldn''t help revealing a strange look since this sword looked like nothing that he had seen before.


    It was definitely a one of a kind de, but…he had no idea if it was good or not.


    He could tell that whatever this thing was made of was very strong, but he didn''t know anything beyond that.


    So the captain turned back to look at Rondo and asked, "This is the special work you were talking about?"


    Rondo just gave a calm nod in response without saying anything.


    The captain looked at it a bit more before saying, "It doesn''t look that special."


    Rondo said in the same calm voice, "You shouldn''t judge a book by its cover sometimes. I can tell you for certain that this thing is much more special than it looks."


    The captain still had the same doubtful look on his face, but he said, "Alright, if you say so."


    Rondo knew that it would take more than words to convince the captain, so he said, "Why not test the de directly? I''m sure that you have plenty of weapons here, right?"


    The captain was surprised that Rondo would propose something like this.


    He turned to look at me for the first time and I just gave a simple nod to give him permission to do this.


    The dwarves really seemed to respect whoever the owner of a weapon was, that the captain even asked me for permission to do this.


    Once he received my permission, the captain pulled out his sword from his waist and brought it up to the sword.
