Kapitel 1429: 1429. Rodney's Fame

There were many eyes on the young blacksmith with cloth over his eyes even after Mordant had returned to the stares. He was seemingly stunned that he had won such an honor through this competition. Yet, it made sense. He was exactly what Mordant had been searching for. A new blacksmith to come to his village that could make darkness affinity equipment better than his current blacksmiths.

It would also be good because the young blacksmith would learn the newest runes while in Genesis training. It was the best possible outcome for Mordant's village instead of leaving dragonkin blacksmiths there long term.
