Seeing the little Fairy's flustered state, the people around quickly comforted her.

"It must be broken, don't worry."

"Exactly, exactly, no need to rush."

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the destined person of Lord Morax that we cannot see in the future."

At this moment, the proprietress slowly walked over from beside the counter.

"It's just that Lord Morax's future is so mysterious. We've been divining for so many years and this is the first time we've seen such a situation, but I think I saw several figures at the end just now."

At this time, a dark-skinned little Fairy said with a smile.

"So that means Lord Morax should have many destined people. In other words, Lord Morax should be a scumbag."

At this moment, a little Fairy with a big mouth that looked simple-minded said.

"Uh."

Mo Li was speechless upon hearing everyone's words.

"I didn't expect the dependable Lord Morax to have so many destined people in the future? Could you be the legendary harem protagonist?"

Rimuru said sarcastically at this moment.

"Alright, don't be angry. Who can predict the future? I never believed in divination. It's fine as entertainment, but believing it is losing."

Mo Li picked up Rimuru and comforted him.

Mo Li knew that the divination this time was not wrong. Wasn't the first image on the crystal ball Rimuru after his transformation? As for the few figures behind, Mo Li had some guesses, but they were more or less the same. Anyway, even if he didn't believe it completely, it was still seventy to eighty percent true. What surprised Mo Li even more was that Rimuru would be his destined person. However, the urgent matter now was to comfort this little jealous person first.

"Exactly, Lord Rimuru, you can't believe this divination completely."

At this time, Gobta stepped forward to speak up for Mo Li.

"Exactly, exactly, it's just entertainment. Let's drink, let's drink."

Kaigin stood up and joined the fun.

"It's true, Lord Rimuru, divination is unreliable, it's just entertainment, let's drink."

At this moment, the little Fairy realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, let's drink."

Seeing this, Rimuru stopped sulking.

Just as Rimuru and Mo Li were happily drinking, a voice that sounded very unpleasant suddenly came.

"Isn't this Mr. Kaigin? Why do you have the leisure to come here for a drink?"

"I remember you have a mission, right? Have you finished making the precious sword?"

"Or have you given up already?"

"Yeah, it seems like the delivery date for the precious sword is almost here, isn't it? Have you given up?"

"Hahahaha hahahaha."

"When the time comes, if you can't complete the mission, I'll see how you explain it to the king. You might even lose your life."

Hearing this voice, Kaigin's face immediately darkened. Mo Li turned his head to look.

A middle-aged man wearing a white robe and a mustache walked towards Mo Li and the others.

Looking at the man escorted by two guards, Mo Li couldn't help but think.

"This should be Besta, a biological researcher for Tempest in the later period. This is a top talent."

"So it's Minister Besta."

Kaigin's tone was extremely cold.

"You don't need to worry about my mission. My affairs are not for you to decide."

Kaigin retorted to Besta.

Looking at this scoundrel who was trying to trip him up, Kaigin wished he could slap him a couple of times.

"Hmph. I hope you can still be this tough when you deliver the mission."

Besta snorted and said.

Hearing Besta's words, Kaigin couldn't help but laugh heartily.

"Then I will have to disappoint you. I have already made those twenty precious swords. I am the best blacksmith in the entire Dwarf Kingdom, so this little difficulty is nothing. It's just that someone's plan will be ruined."

"If I hadn't finished the mission, do you think I'd come out to celebrate with my new friends?"

Kaigin said sarcastically while picking up his wine glass to provoke Besta.

"How about it, Minister Besta, would you like to have a drink too?"

Kaigin said as he took a sip.

"Hearing Kaigin's words, Besta was stunned for a moment, then said in disbelief."

"Kaigin, don't talk nonsense. I heard you only forged one precious sword."

Besta felt a bit confused. This didn't make sense.

By all rights, he shouldn't have been able to complete the task.

Besta had arranged everything. Not only was there not enough time, but the blacksmith shop definitely didn't have enough ore.

But Kaigin wasn't the type to brag, was he?

But why?

Seeing Kaigin's confident expression, Besta said disbelievingly.

"It's really done. You're not lying."

"Of course. I, Kaigin, am the finest blacksmith in the entire Dwarf Kingdom. When have I ever bragged? Moreover, I finished it in less than half a day. How's that, surprised?"

Kaigin raised his eyebrows at Besta.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. How could you finish it in half a day? I investigated, and you didn't have enough time, nor should you have had enough ore reserves."

Besta shouted in disbelief.

As soon as the words fell, the surroundings fell silent.

"So it was you who was trying to trip me up. But you didn't expect me to solve it, did you? And even exceed the task. Didn't see that coming, did you? Minister Besta."

"Hahahaha."

Kaigin laughed as he spoke.

"Don't talk nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I won't be polite."

Besta said urgently.

"So it was you who gave Master Kaigin a hard time."

At this moment, Rimuru jumped out and shouted at Besta.

"Who is this low-level monster? When did any Tom, Dick, or Harry get to enter the shop? Get her out of here immediately!"

"Not just her, but also that drunken goblin next to her, and that strange-looking thing. All of you get out! Low-level monsters daring to enter the shop, who gave you the guts?"

Besta shouted loudly.

At this moment, the proprietress walked over.

"Minister Besta, please don't be angry. Have a drink to calm down."

The proprietress said as she picked up a wine glass and handed it to Besta, trying to change the subject.

"Is it your place to interrupt me? Get lost!"

Besta snatched the wine glass from the proprietress's hand, pushed her aside, and then poured the wine in his hand directly onto Rimuru's head.

Not only that, but as if he still wasn't satisfied, he picked up another cup of wine from the table and poured it onto the unconscious Gobta.
