Bab 461: An Odd Decision

With the crowd cheering one more time in response to Julian's words, the latter went ahead and laid out the rules that would be governing the forging duel between Valyr and Theraldine.

"First and foremost, I shall be the arbiter of the forging duel between the two young and talented blacksmiths we have here today," said Julian once the crowd became silent. "Though I shall be enlisting the help of a couple high-tier blacksmiths in the background to determine the winner of the forging duel, I shall have the final say on the judgment."

"I presume none of the people here have any complaints with that, right?" Asking this question to the audience surrounding the stage, Julian looked at them with rapt attention, wanting to see if anyone was going to voice any dissent towards the matter. Seeing that there were none, Julian faintly nodded before proceeding to move onto the next rule.
