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

Chapter 338

I have heard of it, but only from my own blacksmith master.

Jefft and Melissa's father seemed to be forgers of the same generation. Their talents were comparable. When they were young, they often regarded each other as their competitors.

But compared with Melissa's honest father, Jefft's "ambition" was greater. He did not want to stay where he was, and did not intend to develop in a small place like Brooks City.

So when he was in his twenties, Jefft went out to make a living, and he really made a name for himself outside.

This made him a little proud and complacent. He started to raise the price of the weapons he made, and the price was expensive, not to mention that the customers themselves needed to provide additional evaluations.

As a result, his reputation was ruined step by step. People began to stop entrusting him to forge weapons. After all, it was too expensive and not everyone was willing to spend so much money.

Even those wealthy customers would choose a forging room with a higher level and more cost-effective. Jefft was a genius, but he was not the best in the world. As a customer, he still had a lot of choices.

Blacksmiths like Jefft, who have bad attitudes and high prices, are not the choice of most people.

But Jefft couldn't let go of his pride. Faced with this situation, he was still unwilling to lower his price and continued to do his own thing.

As a result, he made himself miserable after a long time and had to return to Brooks City to find a job. Some time ago, he met with his old rival Melissa's father, which caused a burst of ridicule from the other party.

As a result, Serita now bought the rune sword from such a person, which was a bit unreliable no matter how you think about it.

"How much did it cost?"

Elena squinted his eyes and said, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. The rune sword was expensive to begin with, and buying it from such a forger who offered a sky-high price would probably completely empty Serita's pocket.

"Not much... just one..."

Serita did not answer directly, but lowered her head and stretched out her index finger.

"One hundred gold coins?"

As soon as he said it, Elena felt a little stupid. How could the rune sword be bought at the price of one platinum coin? This was not even enough to cover the price of the runes on it.

Although he only took a quick look, the rune sword was not of good quality, and could even be said to be of relatively poor quality, but the price would definitely not be as cheap as one hundred, unless that Jeft was a fool or a philanthropist.

"Not.... It's one thousand..."

"What?!"

"I spent one thousand gold coins to buy this rune sword!"

Being pressed by Elena, Serita was like a broken jar, gritted her teeth and answered loudly, saying a number that Elena could not even think of.

"One thousand gold coins?! I... I..."

The huge amount of money that he had never heard of shocked Elena so much. He did not dare to think about it carefully, because his mind went blank just by hearing this number, and his legs gradually became weak and limp.

"Irina!"

Fortunately, Serita reacted in time and hurried over to support Irina who was about to fall. Looking at Irina who was extremely pale, her face was full of worry.

Irina had been poor since he was a child. Even though he had become rich now, he could not afford the huge sum of one thousand gold coins. Even if he did not spend it, it was enough to make him feel terrible.

"No, where did you get so much money? Your bag can't hold so much!"

Irina soon reacted and opened his eyes while lying in Serita's arms. His golden eyes exuded an anxious look, staring at Serita and making her feel that her face was about to be pierced.

"Borrow... borrow. If it's not enough, ask someone to borrow."

"Borrow? How much did you borrow?!"

"Not much... only... about four hundred gold coins..."

"Four hundred?!"

Irina stopped breathing when he heard this number. Four platinum coins were almost his savings when he was the richest.

Now Elena spent a lot of money to renovate the old church of the orphanage, spending almost 300 gold coins, and the savings on hand may not even be enough to get a platinum coin.

Selita, on the other hand, borrowed 400 gold coins at once and directly spent 10 platinum coins to buy the rune sword.

Elena fell limply into Selita's arms, and the money seemed to be cutting his flesh.

But the most important thing was to hear Selita borrow money. This kid didn't even know how to go out to buy things, but he had the courage to borrow money from others.

Alone in this strange city, there were not many friends, let alone the existence of safe borrowing money.

Don't even think about itThinking about it, Elena was sure that Serita had borrowed from those merchants at high interest rates, and the interest was absolutely ridiculous.

Even if Elena wanted to help her repay first, he couldn't afford 400 gold coins. This money might really need to be slaughtered by a dragon to sell to make up in a short time.

Elena was shocked and troubled by the money, but Serita didn't care about this very important thing.

So soft... Why are boys softer than me?

She was amazed at the feel of Elena in her arms. The soft Elena lay in her arms, and the soft touch seemed to break his waist with just a little force.

Think carefully, Serita has never had such close contact with the opposite sex as now, and the touch brought by skin-to-skin contact is much more comfortable than imagined.

This is still separated by clothes. If they are honest and close, how much extreme feedback will the delicate skin bring?

"No! You have to come with me to return the sword, and get as much as you can!"

The next second, Elena's angry voice interrupted Serita's messy thoughts. The money must be returned, even if the other party raised the price and took some of it. No matter what, it must be refunded.

Serita was originally a "little rich woman" with hundreds of gold coins, but this operation turned her into a "little debtor" with a debt of 400 gold coins.

"But..."

Obviously Serita was reluctant to give it up. She really liked this rune sword. Even if she only used it for one battle, she couldn't let it go.

A weapon that would not be damaged, this was simply the equipment she dreamed of getting.

Elena didn't say anything, but looked at Serita seriously and solemnly, and her eyes could even clearly see the anger. This time he was really angry.

"Okay...Okay."

Despite the education she received in the past few days, Serita was no longer as stubborn as she was at the beginning. In addition, she knew that she had done something wrong. Facing such a situation, Elena finally chose to compromise.

So the two of them quickly dealt with the body of the Cyclops and rushed back to the guild, trying to refund the rune sword as soon as possible.
