I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 1016

Unfortunately, after seeing Sophia standing next to Elaina, Melissa's beautiful smile quickly froze, and gradually turned back to her usual cold and stern look.

"Um... Good morning, Sister Melissa."

Seeing the other party rushing to open the door so anxiously, Elaina greeted her awkwardly. Based on his understanding of the terrain of the blacksmith shop, if Sister Melissa was forging iron, she would definitely not be able to come to open the door so quickly.

The only explanation is that Melissa already knew that Elaina had returned to Brooks City, so she waited near the door as soon as she got up today, and immediately got up and ran to open the door when she heard the noise.

After all, Elaina and her group did not hide when they came back, so it was normal for people to see them on the road.

Even though the information transmission in this world is relatively backward, the gossip in everyone's heart is the same in any era, and when they encounter topics of interest, they can spread all over the city in an instant.

Melissa must have heard about it from a customer in the blacksmith shop or a blacksmith apprentice who didn't study seriously, so she was waiting for Elena from the beginning.

It can be seen from the fact that the other party's dress is no longer cool to adapt to the environment, but has changed into a set of dresses that look quite delicate.

Melissa not only wants to welcome Elena, but also wants to go out and play with him.

But now all these arrangements are ruined, because Elena is not alone, and there is a girl with him, a third party named Sophia.

Under this situation, Melissa can't open the mouth to go out and play together, after all, you can't bring a light bulb with you, right?

"Um... Sister Melissa, let me introduce you, this is Sophia, a member of our brave team, who used to live as a saint of the church, but recently has left the church and become one of us."

Seeing Melissa looking at Sophia without saying a word, Elena, who felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, hurriedly introduced.

"Hello, I'm Sofia, nice to meet you."

Seeing Elena so nervous, Sofia also stiffened up, stretched out her hand and said overly polite words, and the whole person looked a little nervous.

Melissa glanced at Elena and then looked back at Sofia, saying the three words Melissa and stretched out her hand to hold Sofia's arm.

Although she didn't use any force and didn't engage in a strange contest, Melissa's eyes exuded a strong sense of oppression.

Even though she was a former saint, Sofia now felt that she didn't dare to look directly at the other person, because the sense of oppression exuded by Melissa was too strong.

"You're too slow, Elena."

Melissa said this unexpectedly, and Elena was stunned for a moment, wondering where he was slow. He shouldn't have agreed with Melissa in advance what time he would come here today?

"Come in, let me see your recent level."

Melissa didn't want to explain anything. She greeted him and turned around to walk into the blacksmith shop. Elena and Sophia looked at each other and followed him.

The environment of the blacksmith shop was still as hot as ever. Even the area for entertaining guests could feel the heat coming from underground.

After all, there was a whole row of furnaces in the basement of the blacksmith shop, and quite a few apprentices were training there.

But today, Elena didn't see any other apprentices. Even if they were not allowed to forge iron, there should be one or two apprentices to look after the shop.

The blacksmith shop seemed to have no intention of opening for business. There was no one in the hall selling weapons, and the old blacksmith didn't know where he had gone. It seemed that Melissa was the only one in the blacksmith shop.

Melissa led the way and came directly to Elena's exclusive forging room. Looking at the familiar scenery around, Elena felt very nostalgic.

In response to Elena's close relationship with the blacksmith shop over the years, the old blacksmith and Melissa specially prepared this forging room for him.

You should know that Elena usually used the old blacksmith's furnace or Melissa's furnace before, and he didn't have anything of his own. After all, he was weak and sick when he was a child and couldn't forge iron properly.

Now this forging room has been cleaned up and is dedicated to Elena's use. Even when Elena is not there, no one else is allowed to use it.

Only Melissa occasionally comes here to use the furnace on a whim, which is an alternative way to relax.

"Make a few regular iron swords for me to see."

Melissa said lightly. Although she looked expressionless, she gave Elena a feeling of being a little unhappy.

"Ah... now?"

Even EliNa was a little confused. He came here to talk about something. Why did she start supervising him to forge iron as soon as they met?

Although Melissa has always been so strict and treats those apprentices in this tone most of the time, Elaina always feels that Melissa is not right today.

"Now."

Melissa answered very briefly, giving people the feeling that she would not say it again.

Elaina pursed his lips and was a little reluctant, but the shadow of his childhood made him obedient. He held the hammer and stood in front of the furnace for the first time in a long time. Looking at the molds around him, he really felt that he was a little unfamiliar.

Before starting to work, Elaina glanced at Melissa. Normally, she would rarely enter the forging room in this way. Elaina, who was not used to it, suddenly said this.

"Aren't you hot?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Sophia, who was watching from the side, covered her face with her right hand. She was more sensitive and understood what was going on after a little thought.

To put it bluntly, Melissa was jealous. She finally got to meet Elaina, but she ended up with another girl around him.

If she were in Melissa's shoes, she would feel unhappy, and it was normal for her to feel resentful.

But at this time, Elaina not only didn't notice it, but she even said such words. Anyone who saw it would know that Melissa had dressed up carefully for Elaina.

As a result, she didn't get a single compliment from Elaina until now, but instead got a very strange "Aren't you hot?".

To be honest, if Sophia heard Elaina say this, she would probably have asked Elaina out for a duel. Whether she could win or not was another matter, but she would definitely vent her anger.

As expected, Melissa narrowed her eyes when she heard Elaina's words. Although she didn't say a word, she gave people an inexplicably terrifying feeling.

Especially Elaina began to shiver all over, even in such a hot forging room. After all, he knew that when Melissa showed this expression, most of the time she was ready to start scolding people.
