Chapter 136: Good Luck Finding Him
The capital of the Forgeheart Kingdom, Dalahan City, named after the kingdom’s first king, Dalahan Forgeheart, is quite hectic at this time. Many newcomers from outside the kingdom have arrived, using the city as a transit point on their way to Valiard City, or waiting for the sword to be presented to the royal family. Logically they know that Duke Valiard must have reported the sword to the king, which has drawn significant attention to the capital. But the question is when? So, they wait in the capital.
Many famous names, particularly swordsmen, have arrived in the city, and it wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the Ten Great Swordmasters of the continent. There is already some commotion in various parts of Dalahan City.
---------------------------------
A muscular man with an intimidating aura walks through the crowds, who instinctively step aside to make way for him. His red hair, adding to his fierce appearance, makes people avoid him from a distance. His infamous name has already spread across the continent—he is the one who follows the path of the Demonic Sword of Pure Annihilation.
"Oh, if it isn’t the Sword Demon," a voice interrupts his walk. It belongs to a black-haired, middle-aged man.
The Sword Demon glances at him, recognizing the man with two swords at his waist—Bourdin Smith. Ignoring him, the Sword Demon continues walking. Bourdin Smith just shrugs and takes a different path.
Many people witness the brief interaction between two of the Ten Great Swordmasters. But it’s not just the Sword Demon and Bourdin Smith; others have also arrived in the city.
In one of the city’s largest taverns, a beautiful woman in a tight black robe that accentuates her curves sits quietly, gazing at her drink. Her striking, mature face attracts the attention of many men, but they know better than to approach her.
She appears lost in thought, absently playing with her drink. "The appearance of this sword could attract that mysterious swordsman, right?"
