Chapter 1178: This Cleaver Will Be Called "Fat Head Fish"!Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Even though this was only a cleaver, Mag was sure that most 10th-tier knights" swords were no match for it.
Master Rom was right. This was a cleaver that could split open a 10th-tier magic beast"s head. It could most probably even be used to skin a giant dragon.
The price of a cleaver of this caliber already couldn"t be measured with the price of a normal cleaver. Mag felt it was reasonable to be charged as a top-tier weapon.
“This cleaver is free. It"s a gift for you.” Rom shook his head with a smile, and said, “However, before you take it away, I have to name it. It"s my rule. You can use the weapons any way you like, but their names have to be given by me.”
“Could Master name it, please.” Mag raised his cleaver to Master Rom with both hands. He knew about that rule. “Tian Du Sword” was named by Master Rom. Master Rom could have a fetish to dish out names.
Master Rom took the cleaver and was silent for a moment. Then, his eyes lit up, and he said, “Yes. This cleaver will be called "Fat Head Fish"!”
“Fat…” Mag opened his mouth and then swallowed his words. Never mind, since the cleaver was a gift. “Fat Head Fish” should be its name, then; as long as the master was happy.
And that fat head fish yesterday had died for a good cause too.
Master Rom took out a metal pen and carved a few words at the edge of the cleaver. He kept the pen and nodded in satisfaction before giving the cleaver to Mag.
Mag received the cleaver with both hands, and gratefully said, “Thank you for the cleaver, Master.”
He knew Master Rom didn"t need money, but he deeply appreciated this gesture.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, for attaining an exceptional knife: Fat Head Fis.h.!.+ The reward for completing the G.o.d of Cookery"s cleaver"s mission: one chance to return to the peak form! The time limit is 15 minutes.”
The System"s voice appeared in Mag"s mind, and had even set off two fireworks special effects.
“Don"t mention it. I still have to thank you for your hospitality last night.” Master Rom continued to wave his hands. He felt totally different when he woke up in the morning. He felt he could still work for another several years on the forging table. He could still continue doing the things he liked.
And all this was possible because of the steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers Mag made last night.
It felt incredible to be sober, and he was willing to exchange all his wealth for a clear mind. All the things in the bas.e.m.e.nt meant nothing to him.
“Oh yes, Mr. Mag, you said your restaurant is in Chaos City. If I moved to Chaos City, would I be able to eat the steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers that you made every day?” Master Rom asked Mag expectantly.
“Is Master Rom planning to s.h.i.+ft the workshop over to Chaos City? If this is the case, you just have to come to the restaurant early every day, and you will get to eat the steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers,” Mag replied in a surprise before smiling, and continuing, “If you move to Chaos City, all the steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers that you order will be free of charge.”
Master is going to move the workshop to Chaos City? Joey and Joss were shocked, and they stared at Rom in disbelief.
Master Rom had never left Issen Castle in the past 400 years. Even the sword that the first king of the Roth Empire asked him to forge was made in this workshop before it was delivered to the Roth Empire.
Many of the famous weapons on the Norland Continent were made in this seemingly rundown workshop. This was also the holy land of all the weaponsmiths in Issen Castle.
And now, the master wanted to move the workshop over to Chaos City so he could eat some steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers? Wasn"t this simply too crazy?
“No, no.” Master Rom shook his head after hearing that. Laughing, he said, “I have never spent much money in my life. It"s just lying around here, I have to spend more of it.
“Furthermore, I still have to think of some methods to bring all this money over to Chaos City. I estimate it will take a few days to s.h.i.+ft it all out,” Master Rom said to himself, feeling troubled.
Mag felt speechless. Ordinary people indeed couldn"t understand the problem of having too much money.
“If Master wants the money to be moved easily, I could ask a friend at Buffett Bank after I get back to Chaos City. They can come to your place, sort out the money for you, and change it into a deposit slip of equal value. You will only need to take the deposit slip to Chaos City, and when you need the money, you simply need to take the slip to the bank to cash it out,” Mag suggested.
“There is something so convenient? I will bother Mr. Mag, then.” Rom"s eyes lit up. This had solved a big problem for him.
“I guess they would be very happy to serve you,” Mag said with a smile. This could be considered as a favor to Scheer since he had to ask her for a favor too.
“Master Rom, we will meet again in Chaos City. I will take my leave now.” Mag kept the cleaver and bade farewell to Master Rom.
“Goodbye, Old Grandpa.” Amy waved her hand obediently.
“We will see each other again very soon.” Rom nodded with a smile.
Joey strode to the door and opened it for Mag. He sent them out with a smile.
This was his first time seeing the master smiling so much, and his temperament had become calm overnight. He even taught them many forging techniques today. All these things had something to do with Mag.
“They"re out!”
The crowd saw Mag come out, and their eyes lit up with antic.i.p.ation. They all wanted to know what kind of cleaver Master Rom forged for Mag.
However, Mag was empty-handed. They didn"t see the cleaver, so he had to have kept it.
“Bro, what kind of cleaver did Master Rom forge for you? Can you show it to us?” a dwarf standing in the front asked curiously.
The crowd chimed in and asked Mag to show them the cleaver.
Hadeng was standing behind the crowd. He, too, couldn"t help but stand on his tiptoes and look. He had come to Issen Castle for more than one year, and he still hadn"t seen a weapon which was forged by Master Rom. It would be nice to have a glimpse, even though it was a cleaver.
“Alright. I will show you guys the new work from Master Rom.” Mag hesitated for a moment after seeing the crowd"s antic.i.p.ation before finally nodding his head. He took out the cleaver from the bag, and removed the gray cloth that was wrapping it.
The red setting sun shone in from the hole above, and the light landed on the cleaver. Glaring rays were reflected from it.
“Woah!!!”
Everyone narrowed their eyes subconsciously, and then let out a sound of sincere admiration.
A master was indeed a master. They couldn"t see anything except a flash of light that almost blinded them.
“Now, everyone has gotten a look. Goodbye.” Mag kept the cleaver and carried Amy toward the horse-drawn carriage.
After getting into the carriage, Mag and G.o.dala went to have dinner before going back to Tam Inn for their luggage. They said their farewell to G.o.dala at the inn"s entrance.
G.o.dala got closer and said to Mag in a low voice, “Brother Mag, I am very happy that you could get a cleaver from Master Rom, but there were a few people in the crowd earlier who were looking at you with an ominous look. You have to be very careful when you leave tonight. I don"t have anything fantastic for you, but you can take that white unicorn in the stable. Don"t stop after you leave Issen Castle. They will not be able to catch up with you as long as they don"t have a flying steed.”
