Armor of Arrogance

When Chen Yi arrived at the Blacksmith Shop with Fire Dragon, Nino Tudi was energetically berating the other dwarves. "I! The great dwarven blacksmith Nino Tudi, have successfully forged my seventh piece of Epic-quality equipment."

"Forge three more, and I'll qualify to learn higher-quality forging methods."

After praising himself, his face immediately darkened. "And you people can't even extract metal from ore without screwing it up."

The dwarves being scolded by Nino Tudi all lowered their heads without a word, giving Chen Yi the distinct feeling of a homeroom teacher calling on students.

"Hmph! You're the worst batch I've ever taught!"

"And you're still crying! You should know that I, Nino Tudi, killed a Tier 5 Evil Dragon and forged the most powerful weapons when I was 112!"

These dwarves spent all day boasting, and aside from hammering metal and forging, their usual hobby was drinking.

Sometimes, it was hard to tell which of the things they said were true.

Fire Dragon smilingly handed over the fine wine in her hand. It had been brought back from the Heavenly Realm.

Nino Tudi did not stand on ceremony and immediately opened it, taking a deep, blissful sniff.

After confirming the feeling, it was wine that would not kill him if he drank it, and it probably tasted good too.

Nino Tudi's hanging heart settled. "Ahahaha, isn't this my best friend and Kid Yi? Didn't that cat come?"

Fire Dragon explained that Chuka had been locked at home by Chen Yi to study and forbidden from going out.

Nino Tudi had merely asked casually and did not care much.
