Chapter 362 Lay Down Your Hammer (2)



The moment that I had chosen to do this in public, he was already doomed to accept.

After all, if he backed down now after everything that would happen, he would be known as a coward for the rest of his life. So he was already trapped in a corner unless he was able to talk his way out of it.

Drogath narrowed his eyes to look at him before saying, "You think that you can get out of the promise of giving your head since you're a guest of our king, don't you? You want to make fun of us dwarves?"

He was trying to use both logic and emotion at the same time.

He used the logic of him being guests of the Dwarven King to break a promise while also invoking the emotions of the dwarves around him.

But I smoothly shut it down by saying, "Do you want it in writing?"

Drogath's mouth opened and closed a few times as he didn't know what to say.

He didn't understand why this human was pushing him so far.

It wasn't as if he had done anything that bad to this human, he had just tried oppressing him with his words.

It wasn't as far as them wanting each other's lives yet…

Yet this human just didn't back down.

I knew that he would collapse with just a single push, so I said, "I guess you're man enough to beat women, but you're not man enough to accept a duel when offered one. I guess you need to hide behind women after all."

I knew that the final part was insulting to women, but it was the most effective way to provoke this misogynist, so I had no choice. I could only apologize in my heart.

As expected, Drogath's face twisted when he heard this.

His expression changed several times as if he was trying to figure out what to say.

But in the end, he revealed a dark and calm look as he said, "You really want to push me that far? Then don't blame me when you die."

I looked at him and said, "That depends on if you have the skill."

He didn't fall for my provocation this time and simply stated, "What are the terms?"

"A simple duel of forging blades, nothing more, nothing less. Whoever forges the best blade will be the winner of the duel."

Drogath narrowed his eyes as a bit of surprise appeared in them, but then he said, "What about time and place."

I calmly replied, "We'll have the Dwarven King act as our witness, so he'll provide the location. As for the time, let's set it for three days from now so we all have enough time to prepare."

These terms were fair, but Drogath couldn't help being surprised by one thing, "The Dwarven King, you're involving him? Do you think that he's so free that he has time for a forging duel?"

This time, it was Kali who interrupted by saying, "His majesty has the time. He will come as the witness."

Drogath was caught off guard hearing this, but he didn't deny this since he recognized Kali. He knew his position and how close he was to the Dwarven King, so he was qualified to make this statement.

But even getting the Dwarven King involved, this was getting more and more complicated.

That meant that this situation was getting worse and worse for him.

With a frown on his face, he asked, "Then the prizes? Are you really sticking with that?"

I looked at him with narrowed eyes as I said, "You're backing down now?"

Drogath's face twisted hearing this, but I didn't give him a chance to speak, "We will use the terms that we've already agreed on. My head for your hammer."

But then after a pause, I added, "Oh, and one more thing."

Drogath knitted his brows, but he said, "What else do you want?"

I simply said with a smile, "It's nothing that complicated. If I win, you'll divorce your wife."

"Huh?" Both Drogath and Elsa were shocked when they heard this before Elsa looked at me with a grateful look.

Drogath on the other hand just looked disgusted seeing this, so he said, "Fine, do whatever you want with this tramp, like I would want her." But then he added, "Of course, that depends on your skill."

After hearing this, Elsa revealed a hurt look.

"Hmm, very well then. I think that we've set the terms. Should we put it in writing?" I said in a teasing voice.

Drogath's face twisted when hearing this, but he waved his hand and said, "Do whatever you want. There's all these witnesses, do you really think that either of us can back down now? Especially since it even involves his majesty?"

I shook my head as I said, "No, it's far too late for that."

Drogath gave another snort before ignoring me.

He was going towards Elsa, but before he could reach her, Kali suddenly stepped forward to stand between them.

Drogath revealed an ugly expression before saying, "What are you doing? Are you also getting between a man and his wife now?"

Kali's expression didn't even flinch as he said, "His majesty has requested that Mrs Elsa come to the castle for a few days. He misses her and wishes to discuss a matter with her."

This was a clear excuse, but Kali didn't back down under Drogath's glare.

So in the end, Drogath just said with a sigh and wave of his hand, "Do whatever you want with this woman. I never should have married her in the first place, she's nothing but trouble."

The hurt look became even stronger in Elsa's eyes when she heard this.

With all of this settled, I didn't want to stay in this store for a moment longer.

So with Kali leading the way, we headed back to the carriage and headed back to the castle.

It was fine since I also had a few things I wanted to talk to the Dwarven King about.
