Chapter 1084: Mzed
Tang Shaoyang switched places with the spirit he placed outside the city with [Spirit Switch]. Before Guild Master Gortham came to him with the news, he had prepared for the worst. Not that he expected the situation would turn out like this, but because his spirits warned him. Zowen, Rosalie, and a few other spirits warned him that the whole city would turn against him because of Wrath, the Golden Dragon.They might not be hostile and just wanted to figure out what class he had to have a dragon as his familiar. Another possibility, they wanted to see his level, skills, and other stuff, to figure out how strong he was so they could use that information to capture him and the dragon.
Despite those possibilities, there was no way he would share his window status. The council would figure out that he was not Ying and not affiliated with the Karian Guild Adventurer the moment he showed the window status. They could use that against him, and he would have the same end. He would still be number one on the wanted list in the alliance.
Guild Master Gortham should be aware of the main problem, but from the way he tried to persuade him to attend the witness testimony. It seemed the Guild Master did not oppose the idea or protect him hard enough. "How silly of me to think that old man would do that." Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. "I underestimated the value of a dragon."
"Agree. You should not show off your dragon, not especially to the Varuman Empire and the Mistovel Family. They are known for the dragon maniac, willing to do anything to possess a dragon, especially a young dragon like yours."
Tang Shaoyang was caught off guard when he heard someone else\'s voice. He turned toward the voice and saw the familiar face. Christopher, the blacksmith, worked on his new battle-ax. The bulky man was leaning against the tree with tobacco in his lips.
Tang Shaoyang immediately took out his Titan Blade, and he was still in his transformation, so he was ready to fight. However, Christopher raised both his hands in the air. "I am here not to fight you. I don\'t care what happened between you and the guild. I am here to finish the deal between us." Christopher then took out the battle-ax from his inventory. He did not come closer as he tossed the battle-ax toward Tang Shaoyang.
"There\'s not much I can do for the external design as I try to finish it in a hurry…. I figure out this will happen to you after I hear the rumor." Christopher let out a sigh when he mentioned the last part. "I hope you are satisfied with my work."
Tang Shaoyang remained cautious while secretly checking on his new weapon.

"Mzed?" He muttered by himself. The name was kinda weird to mention, but not as edgy as before.
"I named it Mzed. Doesn\'t have any meaning, but it\'s kind of cool, no?" Christopher smiled.
"Shouldn\'t I name my own weapon?"
The bulky man shrugged. "You have to be there when I finish making it. If you don\'t give the name to the weapon ten minutes after its creation, the System will pick a random name. Thanks to your Black Mithril Bone, I can make it to Epic Grade. That would be the seventh Epic Grade artifact I have ever made."
"How much? Don\'t you come here to get the pay?" Tang Shaoyang felt uncomfortable staying longer around Christopher. He did not know this might be the blacksmith\'s tactic to delay him until the reinforcement arrived. Curious, he used Detection on Christopher, and he was surprised to find that the blacksmith was also Demi-God Rank.
"I can understand why you remain cautious around me, but this makes us hard to have a conversation." Christ let out a sigh once more. "You don\'t need to pay for my service. I take your service for saving those adventurers as payment. There\'s also still some leftover Black Mithril Bone; that should be enough for the payment."
"Then we are done here." Tang Shaoyang did not want to stay here longer. This was far from the city, but not that far. Those people could catch up in fifteen to thirty minutes. While he did not mind being the most wanted person in the starter city #5, he did not want to fight them all at once. He wanted to leave and figured out where he would stay.
"I actually want to buy more Black Mithril Bone from you, but from our relationship right now, you are not willing to sell me, right?" Christopher smiled bitterly.
"Of course. Why would I want to arm the guild? I am not going to make the same stupid mistake, like arming the people that will hunt me down."
Christ scratched his bald head. "Alright." The blacksmith took out a long knife from his inventory. Tang Shaoyang thought the man would fight him to get more Mithril, but Christ tossed the long knife toward him. "That would be a gift for me. I am grateful for the chance you give me to work with a rare material such as Black Mithril. You might need that knife in the wild."

"But I am pretty sure those people regretted their decision to do this to you. Someone with Dragon Bloodline also has a high value, about the same as your dragon. You will be either number one in the killing list or number in the recruit list." Christopher let out a chuckle. "Even I am not confident that I can take you down right now."
Tang Shaoyang did not want to talk about what happened within the alliance. He raised the knife in the air and replied. "Thanks for the knife, I guess?" He did not really think that he would need the knife because he had a better weapon.
"Alright, it\'s a pity that we have to part ways like this." Christ shook his head. "If we ever meet again in the future, I hope we are in a better situation." Those were Christopher\'s last words as the blacksmith disappeared into the woods.
Tang Shaoyang tried to ensure that the man truly left him with his Spirit Eyes. He saw the departing figure in the city direction. Christopher did not linger to watch him. The blacksmith truly left the area, leaving him alone in the woods.
"Let\'s move." As he said that, Wrath and Greed jumped onto his shoulders. He did not know if Christopher was being genuine or just faking his nonchalant attitude with the current situation. The blacksmith might report his whereabouts to the alliance as soon as the man returned, so he did not want to take the risk of staying here any longer.
"But where am I going? Should I go back to my original city?" Tang Shaoyang scratched his head. If the Guild Master was telling the truth, then those God Ranks would not be able to come into the tower again. He said that the punishment would be even harsher than the previous forceful entry to the tower. "But can I trust that old man?"
Greed and Wrath knew the way back to the city, so it was not difficult for him to return. Again, he could not really trust Guild Master Gortham after what happened. On top of that, he did not know if those God Ranks had any other means to enter the tower once more. Maybe they found another loophole in the system and might take advantage of the loophole to enter the tower. He could not ignore that possibility too.
"We found a few settlements on the way to meet you, Master. What about if you stay there first for the time being until you can figure out what you want to do?" Wrath gave an idea.
"I guess that\'s better than wandering around with no destination." That was a better idea than wandering around with no purpose. He needed a place to stay and figured out his next action. He did not need to return to the city, but the drawback was he could not take the quest from the system. "Lead the way, Wrath."
