Capítulo 145: Chapter 145 - A Candidate's Worth

Ivana stayed close to Broken as he began his work, observing his every move.

Broken muttered softly, "It looks like smelting these Orichalcum ores will take much longer than smelting iron ore."

Ivana chimed in, "Seems like you'll be spending days here, huh?"

"I think so," he replied.

Ivana nodded. "I'll stay nearby to keep you company."

Broken nodded slowly, appreciating her offer. "I think that would help a lot, Ivana."

He thought about how no other blacksmith would dare disturb him with Ivana around. With her impressive armor and high level, no one would dare cause trouble. This thought brought a smile to his face.

Ivana began assisting him with small tasks, ensuring he had everything he needed. She would feed him when he was too engrossed in his work to take breaks and fetch towels to wipe away his sweat.
