Hellbents
Chapter 163: Enthusiastic Village Girl
"Whoah!" Bia exclaimed in amazement at the flying chariot he was riding. He came close to dropping a hammer when a fancy, gold-studded invitation letter was sent to his grandfather's shabby iron shop and clearly didn't match the shiny, fragrant paper fold lying on a weathered wooden table. Plus when he just found out that the customer who had been ordering goods to him was a princess. Princess Eve Weinhamer of Edodale.
The Princess Eve, the daughter who is famous as an alchemist and innovator of modern artifacts that he has been idolized.
Holy hooch! How could he not know before? The news about Princess Eve does mostly only contain articles of her latest achievements without any photos. But Bia really did not accept the inaction of his brain which was completely unaware that the princess had ever set foot in his mess room.
And now, he was invited to the palace of Edodale to cooperate directly with Princess Eve! Bia actually intends to attend the exhibition of artificial artifacts next year to show off its innovation at the festival of the founding of the kingdom of Edodale. But now he was even invited to collaborate directly by Princess Eve!
Oh my God, the dream came true!
Bia's legs could not stand still, when the floating door he was riding opened, the girl jumped down before the soldier who was in charge of delivering her saluted. "Hap!"
"Se-h ... Welcome to Edodale's floating palace, Miss Bia," fortunately Harry managed to continue his welcome smoothly, as if Bia's behavior was fully understandable.
Unlike Bia who was immediately glued to the spot. He never expected to be picked up by kstaria royalty, he was in a hurry to tidy up the hem and cut the skirt that might be infested with dust. Bia then looked down awkwardly, "Ah, yes, Sir warrior. W-welcome too."
"Welcome too"?
What's?!
What are you talking about, Bia?!
The girl cursed the absurd phrase out of her mouth. Her face was as red as a tomato, so ashamed.
Fortunately, equipped with the nature of true kstaria, Harry did not intend to comment on any unclear things that Bia did or said. "Let me take Miss to where Princess Eve is."
"Ehem, right, right, please take me."
During the trip, Bia could not help but look around the surroundings. From the outside, the palace looks very, very big. Decorations and furniture are of high quality and certainly expensive. But the most curious is the mechanism of the way the island which includes dozens of magnificent buildings drift far in the air.
Bia knew that Princess Eve made this palace fly, because that was the first reason the name Eve Weinhamer could be famous to all corners of the world, but no newspaper covered the full news. Edodale Palace can fly because of what? Is it because of an artifact? An alchemy? Or magic runes?
Bia and Harry finally arrived in front of a room.
"Lake in."
Once again Bia gaped. First of all, he smelled the thick smell of old paper. The focus then immediately poured full on the titles of books arranged on large shelves next to the room. "Relationship Between Mana Stones and Mythril", "Achemic Reaction of Volume III", "Manifestation of Attributes in Artifacts", my goodness! The rare readings whose prints were no longer published although many were still searching were before him. Can he borrow a book here? Ah, once he also wanted to see the item that made the floating palace possible.
"Ekhem!" Bia was completely unconscious with Harry's hard deheman still behind. "Ehem, Miss Bia."
Bia's eyes glittered with anticipation.
"Miss Bia, you better start saluting the Princess."
Oh, naw! He had forgotten.
"Ah, um, good day, Your Highness Princess Eve." Is this how he should bend?
Fortunately, the princess did not take issue with the disability of formality at the beginning of their meeting. "Please sit down, Miss Bia."
It took three big steps for Bia to arrive at the designated seat, the large backpack on her back clattering every time she moved.
Without saying anything further, Princess Eve took out a stack of familiar paper and blueprint scrolls. That artifact a week ago he made a prototype. Trial succeeded!
"This is the contract I have prepared."
"A-ah, yes."
Bia's pay is high, but the deadline set is too close, it will take 7 sleepless nights to complete the 100 requested artifacts until the limit next week. Unfortunately, you can be too enthusiastic to think about the losses or obstacles he will face. The girl's signature was quickly embodied in the documents.
Ava's business smile bloomed wide. Now one of his business is done.
Time to focus on another issue, Eve's birthday party.
