【----------Oooo

The vicissitudes of life struck the red iron on the big iron pier, and sparks and debris scattered on the ground. Wearing a heavy leather coat covering his whole body, even his head is wearing a steel mask that seems to be a bitter smile, coupled with a height of 1.85 meters, the whole person looks very burly and powerful. But it's just a look, and although the body under the heavy clothes is powerful, it can't match the strength at all.

Qing looked at the rudimentary one-handed blade and carefully examined it for no bends or blemishes, and then put it back in the furnace and burned it. With a deep breath, I looked at the town outside the shed, quiet and peaceful, like being cut off from the world. But it's just for the looks of it, because the people here are poor, so even the Roman army doesn't bother to control it.

It will take some time to burn the red sword blank while the furnace is burning, and the blade that has been formed around the Qing General, but needs to be polished, is taken to the edge of the whetstone to sharpen and sharpen. Striking iron is Qing's current work, no matter how tedious the process is, but the essence of it is also very rich. However, these mass-produced one-handed swords obviously don't need to add much effort to meticulous creation.

It's already the fourth year, saying goodbye to everything, or turning its back on everything. Unable to fulfill his promise as a knight, Green carries Morgan's heavy life and travels to a small village on the edge of the Roman Empire. Although he lost a lot, it also made Qing deeply realize the feeling that he once longed for----------

"Ha~~! ~Yes~~. Daddy, you wake up so early, it's tinkling early in the morning. It's like this every day.,Ah~! I really can't help it. But ----- it's going to be burned in this iron----------"

The blonde girl pushed open the wooden door and whined at Hatche. He is about 1.6 meters tall, and his age looks like he is about 16 years old. But now she was covering her mouth mischievously, looking at the green stove with a smile on her face.

"Mo. Dad has been beating iron for so many years, but he has never seen iron that will be spent just after entering the furnace. Either it's ice. Your trick has no effect, and the same mistake Daddy won't pan ten times! ---------”

Leisurely touching the blade of the sword, and even taking a sip of effort can take water, and deheat without stopping the effort of sharpening the sword. I didn't care at all about the movement of the girl jumping behind me, and continued to work humming a local folk song.

"Ahhh ~~~ It's boring~. I only know how to engage in these iron guys all day long, and sometimes I have to find a mother. You good-for-nothing old man! ”

Hearing the girl's words, Qing's heart couldn't help but feel refreshed. It's a travesty, but being recognized as a man is a great thing to celebrate! After all, although the body can continue to live, but with the passage of time and the growth of strength, the glamorous and peerless appearance obviously does not end there. Qing can guarantee that as long as he takes off his mask, it won't be long before all kinds of people are arresting people!

"It's really sad, Xiao Mo~ Daddy is thinking about you! --- family is poor, only enough for two people to barely eat, if you add one more person, it is really not enough to eat! And you're also in the stage of growing your body! If you are malnourished because of my personal reasons, Daddy will not be able to do it! ~”

Swinging the half-sharpened blade in his hand, he panicked as if he had stepped on his tail. The face under the green mask is smiling, although the movements are exaggerated, but this kind of brisk life is indeed very attractive! You can smile happily without worry.

"Humph! ~ It's bad to prevaricate me with this reason every time. I'm going to go to Mr. Navi in the city, his kendo is much better than a brainless iron striker like you. Bye~~! ---------”

"Ahh!!hh ~~ Soul fades! Striking iron is worse than playing with a sword! You give me back! Look at me if I don't teach you a good lesson today! Don't forget that Lao Tzu, the blacksmith shop, will ask you to inherit sooner or later!! ”

"Don't you!!!! --------------”

"If you have the guts, don't come back in the future! -----Ahh!!!!h ”

Qing roared frantically, and the neighbors around him were obviously used to it. In their eyes, they are a father and son, but obviously not biological! And they quarreled all day long, but the blacksmith who acted as a father never beat his son, and he was very precious, and he praised his children all day long for how good they were.

"Alas~ Gunnier. Your son quarreled with you again? ~It's a good feeling! Unlike my Marcus, who only knows how to herd sheep, and doesn't know how to go to the city to find a girl or anything. Alas! ~It's really worrying~-------"

The neighbor's widow leaned against the green shed, looking enviously at the young girl who was like a teenager in the distance, and her face was wrinkled from hard work in her forties, and she was also the wealthiest family in the area. Qing also inquired and found out that his husband joined the army and died on the battlefield, but the imperial pension also allowed the family to continue to survive.

"No, no, no, Sevia. Your Marcus is a good man, and although he earns little from herding sheep, he is at least safe. My Mordred only knows how to play with swords, and to be honest, I really doubt he'll be the bastard of that adult. ”

Qing took out the sword blank from the furnace and put it on the iron pier casually, but there was no intention of knocking it. Because it is rude to do so, now striking iron means driving people, and Sevia is a very good person. I used to fund Qing when he was in financial difficulty!

"At least he calls you Daddy, doesn't he? Although Xiao Mo is strong, he must also care about you in his heart. As a mother of three, I can see it clearly! It's you, Gunnier, who are mad at such a good lad all day long, and that's not what an adult should do! ”

The woman crossed her waist and looked at Qing questioningly, but through the mask, even if she stared wide, she couldn't see Qing's expression. I can only wave my hand helplessly, and it is not a happy thing to be taught a lesson by others.

"Mom~~! I'm going to herd sheep-----------"

The woman's face fell, and it was evident that she was helpless for her son, who could only herd sheep, but there was no reason to say it. After all, her other two sons went to join the army, and there is no news of them coming back until now, and he is the only one who can accompany her.

"Marcus has a bit of a papaya head, but it's a very attractive type for women. -------Actually, I've heard that he seems to have good news ---- the daughter of the butcher shop! ~I believe it won't be long before he brings the girl home! ”

As usual, I sat leisurely at the door, chatting with my neighbors. It is also because of the conditions of life and the life that can only be there without oppression! Everyone can live happily and happily.

"Mr. Gunnier is so well informed, I said how that stinky boy is so diligent in running outside every day. Hahaha, I'm in a good mood today, I'll give you two eggs here. I still have something to do, so I won't bother you. ”

The woman happily returned to the next house, where she still had to rely on weaving to support the family. Qing looked at the eggs in her hand, Qing still remembered that she had just gone out to get these two eggs, and now they were in Qing's hands.

"Yes. I could have added a dish to dinner today-------------"

Or give up. Qingdi lowered his head, Qing had never learned the skill of cooking rice well--------- he could only trouble Xiao Mo when the time came------ after all, Qing's previous meals were bought, and cooking it himself would only ruin everything. Household accounts simply can't keep up with this consumption.

Back to the big iron pier again, the red iron on it was already cold. After taking a closer look, and seeing that there were no cracks, Qing stuffed it back into the furnace. Looking at the gentle flames, the past of these years is as bright and beautiful as a dream.

The child she picked up at Morgan's cabin, Qing called her Mordred. Obeying the promise and no longer appearing, Green settled in a small village in Rome with the fast-growing Mordred. It's only been four years, like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, which also makes Qing Dan a little worried. Driven by this worry, Qing used some magic to awaken Xiao Mo's magic circuit, which has the support of magic power, even if the physical body is defective, the vitality can support Xiao Mo's life like a normal person.

A leisurely day just passes, and the speed is always fast. However, the blacksmith shop was as unattended as usual, and Qing could only sigh at this. Because striking iron is the only thing Qing wants to do and can do. But there is also less and less money to buy food rations at home.

Someone pays for it, someone sells it, this is the law of the world. Qing looked at the food on the table, and could only sigh, there were not many gold coins left, and there were few people to buy things made by the blacksmith shop. The only way to do this was to take these one-handed swords and iron tools with them and sell them in the city. ----- but it always feels humiliating to do this----- because only the less capable blacksmith can't sell the weapon---------

"I'm back! ~Dad! Ahaha! The meal is ready. Then you're welcome-----------"

Qing grabbed the head of the girl who grabbed the vegetables with her hands as soon as she got home, and faced the smiling girl with a stiff steel mask, like a mask that wanted to laugh like a demon!

"First, give, me, go, wash hands, know, do, -------"
