Chapitre 214: Blacksmith's Request

If a person asks royalty for a favor, it typically makes sense if they request money, information, or authority.

But when someone asks to become a test subject and demands a duel, it feels ominous; especially if the person is a skilled, battle-hardened blacksmith suffering from PTSD. When Mathew trapped Aditya with carefully chosen words, asking for a duel in a suit of unkown armor , it felt absurd.

Feeling speechless, Aditya reluctantly agreed. "Very well, since it's a request from you elder, I shall oblige to the best of my ability. However, I'd prefer not to wear the armor as it can restrict my movements. Surely I can decline that part?"

Mathew gripped his shoulder firmly and shook his head. "No, you must wear it; otherwise, it won't make any sense."
