Chapter 333 Silvermine Family (6)

Chapter 333 Silvermine Family (6)

The curse of that one designer struck again...

But I had to adjust my mentality since in this world, it wasn't considered illegal.

This was just how female dwarves were and I would need to accept it.

The two of them hugged for a bit before separating from each other.

After that, Rondo turned around and introduced this little girl to us.

As we had expected, she was his little sister. As well, she was the young miss of the Silvermine Family, Nori Silvermine.

She didn't give a polite bow and just greeted us with a smile on her face in the gruff manner that dwarves were known for.

That is until her eyes fell onto me.

The moment that her eyes fell onto me, she suddenly revealed a scowl while glaring at me.

It was as if I had wronged her in some way, but that wasn't possible since I had never met her before. How could I have wronged someone that I had never met before?

So I could only reveal an awkward look as she glared at me.

Rondo came to my rescue by asking, "Nori, what's wrong? Why are you glaring at Zwein? He's a guest, you shouldn't act rude."

Nori just pouted her lips, crossed her arms, and turned her head as if she wasn't happy about this which confused them even more.

Rondo just awkwardly asked, "Nori, what's wrong? You can tell your big brother."

After a moment of silence, Nori finally turned back and said, "This is the audacious human who is spreading the lie that he beat my big brother in a forging duel. How could Nori possibly welcome a dirty faced liar like this?"

Everyone couldn't help revealing awkward smiles when they heard this except for Rondo.

The Silvermine couple couldn't do anything since she was the youngest daughter that they both treasured.

We couldn't do anything since she was the young miss of the Silvermine Family.

So all we could do was stand there with awkward looks on our faces.

But it was different for Rondo.

He had knitted his brows after hearing what Nori said and after looking at her with a disapproving look for a bit, he said, "It isn't a lie. I challenged him to a forging duel and I lost fair and square." nOVe.Lb)1n

Nori had been about to say something else, but she was taken aback by what Rondo suddenly said.

She looked at him with her mouth wide open, even forgetting to close it since she was so shocked by what Rondo said.

After a moment of silence, she said, "Big brother is the best at forging, how could a human possibly beat you in a forging duel? I refuse to believe this lie."

Rondo gave a sigh before saying with a serious look, "If I dare have a forging duel with someone, I have the pride to admit my defeat or else I wouldn't have the pride to forge again. I'm not someone that foolishly believes that I am the best in the world, there will always be someone better."

Nori just didn't know what to say in the face of Rondo's passionate rant.

But both Nisa and Ivar looked at Rondo with proud looks that only a parent would have.

After a moment of silence, her face suddenly twisted and her eyes started misting over. She stuck her tongue out at Rondo before running over to Nisa.

Even if Nisa was a tough woman, she was soft when it came to her daughter.

She reached her arms out and took Nori in her arms, patting her on the back as she broke out in tears.

"Stupid big brother...I hate you..."

That was what came out from Nisa's chest with the sound of sniffling.

But Rondo didn't let his expression change as he forced himself to keep the tough look on his face.

However, if one looked closely in his eyes...they could see that he was a bit hurt hearing this.

It wasn't just the parents of the Silvermine Family who pampered the daughter, Rondo was the same.

She was their precious little girl, so of course she was treasured by them.

Since it was my fault that all of this happened, I stepped forward to mediate.

I looked at Rondo with a smile and said, "Rondo, how about we just call our duel a draw? I don't think anyone will mind that much if we say that."

The sounds of sniffling stopped when I said this and Nori slowly looked out from Nisa's chest with eyes that had a faint sparkle in them.

But Rondo shut that down by saying, "No, my pride won't allow it."

When she heard this, Nori's eyes teared up again and she put her head in Nisa's chest again.

This time, both Ivar and Nisa looked at him with an exhausted look.

Pride was good, but being too stubborn wasn't a good thing either.

It was clear that in this situation, it would be better to take a step back and comfort Nori, but he was just too stubborn for his own good.

Nisa was especially disappointed as she turned to look at Ivar beside her before looking at Rondo again.

Like father like son, these two were cut from the same stubborn mold.

Since Rondo wasn't willing to take a step back, it wasn't as if they could keep going from there.

So everyone just stood around awkwardly while waiting for the situation to change.

Finally, Nisa gave a sigh and said, "Nori, you can't expect this kind of tact from your big brother. You should already know what kind of person he is."

Then she looked at everyone with a smile before saying, "I hope that you won't mind, but there will be a slight delay to dinner. If you will excuse me and Nori for a bit, we'll be back shortly."

No one had a problem with this since they knew that it was impossible to have dinner like this.

The last thing that Nisa did when she left was glare at Rondo which made him tremble.
