Translator: 549690339
Three days had passed since the emissary of the Black Iron Dwarves visited the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Apparently, the Black Iron Dwarves valued this cooperation greatly. The envoy was Dain Blackbeard, the brother of the Black Iron King, Abick Blackbeard.
After entrusting his griffin to the lizardmen, Dain Blackbeard followed Sasharu into the Council Chamber of Blackstone Castle.
Along the way, Dain appeared calm on the outside, but his inner thoughts were quite the opposite.
The Land of the Soaring Dragon brought him many shocks. He had thought that a dragon’s followers would live in a chaotic, foul-smelling place.
Especially in such a chaotic place as Nolan Forest.
However, if one ignored the outer city areas, the cleanliness and construction quality of the inner city of the Land of the Soaring Dragon far exceeded many human cities.
Dain had also visited the royal capital of Caran City in the Caran Kingdom as an emissary of the Black Iron Dwarves, which was also located in the Sky Mountain Range.
To be honest, even the sumptuous banquets and the lavish outfits of the nobles in the castle could not make this Black Iron Dwarf forget the fact that he had recently stepped on excrement in the streets.
The streets of the self-proclaimed culturally rich city of Caran were filled with excrement and garbage, which disgusted the dwarves.
Since then, Dain firmly refused to continue his diplomatic mission to Caran to his elder brother, the Black Iron King Abick.
Originally, Dain had prepared himself for a similar situation this time, but unexpectedly, the inner city of the Land of the Soaring Dragon, where a group of monsters lived, was surprisingly clean and tidy.
These monsters used designated places for their bodily functions, and their residences were uniformly planned and organized.
He even saw beautiful flower beds filled with fresh flowers and green leaves in the vicinity.
What the hell? Weren’t those hobbies of elves and human noble ladies…
Well, soon he saw a few tall, beautiful elves who were directing ogres or other monstrous races to take care of those beautiful flower beds.
Hypocritical elf pretenders, taking care of flower beds together with purely evil monsters?
I must be dreaming…
Dain rubbed his eyes, apparently not quite believing what he saw before him.
But soon, he recognized the reality: they were indeed elves, just with oddly colored hair.
It looked like it had been dyed, with most of the hair being green, while the roots were shiny gold.
Could it be that in addition to the Dore Elves, there was a strange, evil elven race?
With these questions in mind, Dain followed Sasharu slowly into Blackstone Castle.
Even as a born craftsman, Dain couldn’t help but marvel at the extraordinary craftsmanship of the building, although its aesthetic was somewhat lacking.
If this Blackstone Castle was flattened and stuffed into a mine, it would have been perfect.
Then, he saw Otto resting on the Blackstone Platform, the Silver Dragon Lord that the hawkmen and lizardmen spoke of – an overbearing, omnipotent being.
Wasn’t that just a nearly sixteen-meter-long silver dragon?
Although it looked very special, perhaps even imposing and domineering, and it was strange to be in Nolan Forest with all kinds of evil monsters, it should not have reached the level described by those emissaries.
So, Dain simply inclined his head slightly, paying a respectful tribute to Otto.
“Greetings to you, Great Silver Dragon Lord. My name is Dain Blackbeard, the blood brother of the Black Iron King Abick. I bring the friendship of the Black Iron Dwarves,” he said.
Otto examined this Black Iron Dwarf for a moment. If compared to the power levels of the monsters in the Soaring Dragon Legion, this guy would be at least equal to Chrom.
Of course, that was if Chrom didn’t unleash his full potential…
It seemed that dwarves were not completely incompetent apart from mining and forging.
“Dwarf, I have also sent out goodwill to your people,” said Otto with a sneer, “but it seems that your two cousins don’t appreciate it.”
Dain laughed, “In that case, it seems we have some common ground. We’ve been at odds with those Redbeards for a long time.
I heard they’ve started a war with the Lait people. Let’s join in on the action and obliterate those damned Redbeards!”
The appearance of the three dwarf factions on the Sky Mountain Range varied greatly, so the dwarves within the factions liked to distinguish each other based on the color of their beards.
The Red Copper Dwarves had red beards, the Mountain Dwarves had brown beards, and the Black Iron Dwarves naturally had black beards.
Dwarves usually spoke plainly, and Dain was no exception.
Otto had always loved working with straightforward people.
He laughed, “I like your proposal. We don’t like those self-righteous Red
Copper Dwarves either.”
“What else are we waiting for? Let’s seize this opportunity and kill them all!”
Dain said excitedly, but Otto shook his head and said, “Although we’d like to teach those Red Copper Dwarves a lesson, you know their equipment and weapons are far superior to my Soaring Dragon Legion.
If we rashly take action, the casualties could be massive…”
Dain confidently replied, “What’s the big deal? We Black Iron Dwarves are the best blacksmiths in the Sky Mountain Range. As long as they wear our armor and weapons, there’s nothing to worry about!”
That’s why Otto liked dealing with these open-minded people.
He almost burst out laughing in his mind but suppressed it and asked, “So you’re saying the Black Iron Dwarves are willing to provide us with some weapons and armor?”
“Why not?”
Dain laughed heartily, “Just tell me what you need. Just keep in mind that if the demand is high, we might need some more time to prepare.
After all, we only occupy a small portion of the mines in the Sky Mountain
Range, so the output of ores might not keep up…”
Otto tried, “We can go even further in our cooperation. You may not know yet, but we have discovered many abundant mines in the Sulfur Mountains.
The kobolds are now mining ores non-stop, but it seems like our current technology is somewhat wasteful.”
“What do you mean?”
Dain looked at Otto with anticipation.
Soon, the latter said with a smile, “I’m willing to share these mines with the Black Iron Dwarves, and even build suitable workshops for you near the Sulfur Mountains.
We’ll also assign many dwarfs or goblins to help you with many uninteresting but time-consuming basic tasks.”
This way, you won’t have to go through the trouble of crossing half of the Sky
Mountain Range to transport weapons and equipment to the Land of the Soaring Dragon; you can simply forge them nearby.”
“That sounds amazing…”
But Dain hesitated, “But how are we going to send so many Black Iron Dwarves over? To be honest, we don’t have that many griffins for transportation..”
