Bab 339: The Calm Before the Storm

Silence.

Once more, silence filled the entirety of Tristan's body. However, this time around, it was not due to the shock he felt from reading the description of the newly improved metal glove he was holding.

Instead, the silence came from the words Valyr had spoken to him in response to his question.

"That's all yours."

Those three words lingered within Tristan's mind, the young man's voice sounding similar to church bells that had been rung near his ears as he failed to comprehend what Valyr had said at first. Fortunately, those same words eventually sunk in, causing Tristan's attitude to go through a full 180 degree turn as he gave the metal glove back to Valyr before waving his hands back and forth in refusal.

"Oh no, no, no! It's too precious!" said Tristan in response to Valyr's words, causing the latter's eyes to briefly widen in surprise from the abrupt change in his good friend's behavior.
