The Dimensional Book of Collapse

"Sister Kiana, Sister Mei!"

Just then, Bell appeared near several people.

"Bell, you..."

Mei remembered that Bell went to the dungeon early in the morning, but his weapon appeared here. Mei was a little worried at first, but now it seems that nothing has happened.

"I'm sorry, Mei-san!"

Bell suddenly bowed to Meiyi and said, "I accidentally lost the sword that Brother Qin Mo gave me."

"Lost it..."

Mei looked at the sword in Welf's hand, then looked at Welf.

The red-haired young man immediately understood what he meant and walked forward with the sword and handed it over: "Is this the sword you lost?"

Hearing the stranger's voice, Bell looked up and saw the sword in Welf's hand at a glance. His originally sad face was immediately filled with surprise: "Ah! Cang Yue! Thank you, thank you!"

After taking the Cang Yue Sword, Bell carefully put it away, but looked at Welf with some confusion: "Excuse me, why is my sword here with you?"

"Well... for this reason, you may have to ask her."

Welf looked at the shivering girl behind him. If the road had not been blocked by several people invisibly, she would have escaped long ago.

"you……"

Bell saw the dog-man girl in the cloak and made a sound with some doubt. As Bell spoke, the girl's body trembled and her hands tightly grasped the hem of the cloak.

"Thank you so much!"

Bell excitedly shook the girl's hand and expressed his gratitude with a happy face, but this behavior obviously made the other party feel surprised.

"Eh……"

"Ah... I was really scared when I found out my weapon was missing in the dungeon. Thank you for helping me find it."

Welf, who was folding his arms behind him, couldn't help but say, "Um, Bell, right? This girl just came to sell your sword, but was stopped by two of your clan members who found out."

"But it's normal to want to sell something you found."

Bell said with some confusion, then took a bag from his belt and said, "Although the money here is not much, it is as a thank you for helping me retrieve the sword."

"I'm sorry...I can't have that..."

When the girl heard Bell's words, her body trembled. She pushed away the purse that was handed to her, and suddenly pushed Bell away and ran out from between the crowd.

"Hey!"

Kiana wanted to chase after her, but was stopped by Mei. She looked at Mei with some confusion, but Mei just shook her head without explaining.

However, the lightning next to them floated behind the two of them because of its characteristic of not being seen: "This kid is not simple, no matter if he really thinks so or is pretending."

"What do you mean?"

Kiana also realized that Mei didn't want others to hear her, so she summoned the bombing space and asked on her behalf.

"What a paramecium! The sword was obviously not lost as he said, but stolen. And the guy knew who stole it. He even knew the woman. But he didn't pursue the theft. Instead, he offered to pay her. Maybe he thought she had something to hide."

Looking at Bell who was already chatting with Welf, Kiana scratched her head. She originally thought that this boy was a pure little white rabbit, but she didn't expect that he would have such a scheming mind.

Fortunately, his subjective idea was not bad, but he chose to pretend to be stupid and let the other party go.

"I'm so sorry, this sword was given to me by my predecessor. It's a very important thing, so I can't sell it to you."

Welf did not say anything after the girl escaped, but directly expressed his purpose to Bell.

"How about this, can you introduce that blacksmith to me?"

As soon as Welf opened his mouth, Mei said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. The blacksmith is not in Orario. We are just users."

"I see. No wonder there aren't any dungeon materials on it."

Welf did not question Mei's statement, but sighed with some regret: "Then can you lend me this sword to study it? I am very interested in the craftsmanship and skills used in it."

"In return, I'll give you my work. Wait a moment!"

Welf quickly put down the wooden box on his back, took out several pieces of armor from it and handed them to Bell.

"You are Mr. Welf Clozeau!?"

Bell took the armor and exclaimed at the name engraved on it.

"Do you know me?"

Bell nodded immediately, then turned sideways to let the other party see the light armor he was wearing: "I bought your work, it is very useful."

"Hahaha! I see. I didn't expect you to be my customer."

Looking at the protective gear in his hand, Bell was also a little tempted. He looked at Mei and Kiana who were standing aside and watching with some embarrassment.

"It's up to you to decide. Even if Qin Mo were here, he would have said the same thing. Now that it's been given to you, it's yours. You're responsible for it."

Chapter 67: Selling Materials

In the end, Bell chose to agree to the deal proposed by Welf.

However, he felt that he had gotten a great deal by simply lending the weapon to the other party and getting a set of protective gear in return, so he offered to compensate the other party.

"Well, since you think I'm at a disadvantage and that my equipment is good, then sign a forger contract with me."

Welf suggested.

"Forger's Contract?"

Bell subconsciously looked at Mei and Kiana, but the two had never heard of this before, so they could only shake their heads in response.

"Actually, it means that I will become your exclusive blacksmith. It is a means of competition among blacksmiths. I will provide you with equipment and you will become my long-term customer."

Welf did not hide anything, nor did he give any detailed explanation. After all, this was just a competition between blacksmiths.

"In that case, then it's settled! By the way, what level are you now?"

Welf was as passionate as the color of his hair.

"I'm just a newbie, only level 1."

Bell said a little embarrassedly, but Welf laughed and patted Bell on the shoulder and stretched out his hand: "That's just right, I'm still only a LV1, please give me your advice!"

"Well, please give me some advice."

After the two shook hands, Welf said a little embarrassedly: "Bell, since you are also level 1, do you know which team needs a blacksmith?"

"Team?"

Welf: "Yes, actually, I want to go on an adventure in the middle layer, and upgrade to LV2 as soon as possible to gain the ability to develop forging, but I can't deal with the dangers of the middle layer alone, so I want to find a team."

"Ah... as for the team, I will also..."

How could Bell know a team? He had been adventuring with Qin Mo and the others before, and after that he explored the dungeon by himself. Although he recently met a supporter from the dwarf tribe, it can't be considered a team.

"In that case, you and Bell should team up."

Kiana, who had been watching from the side, suddenly spoke up.

She and Mei did not interrupt their conversation. After all, Bell should make his own decisions regarding his own affairs. As a senior, she only needed to ensure that he would not be badly cheated.

But seeing this, Kiana couldn't help but say that according to her intuition, she felt that this man named Welf did not look like someone who would betray his teammates. If Bell insisted on taking the risk alone, finding a teammate of the same level would be the best choice.

"Hey? Me and Bell? But isn't he a descendant of your clan?"

Welf's words made Kiana feel a little embarrassed: "Ah, that..."

"For some reason, Bell is now exploring the dungeon alone and not with us. He is at the same level as you. Since you have signed the Forger Contract, it's a good idea for you to team up together."

Mei answered Welf's question for Kiana. Welf nodded without thinking too much and looked at Bell: "In that case, Bell, what do you think?"

"If Mr. Clozo feels it's okay, I have no problem with that."

"Okay! It's settled then. Also, don't call me Mr. Clozo anymore. Just call me Welf. After all, we are teammates now!"

Although Welf was very enthusiastic and familiar, Bell still addressed him as Mr. Welf a little stiffly.

"You two are here with packages on your backs. Are you planning to sell materials?"

Welf was in a good mood after solving the problem that had troubled him for a long time, gaining a customer, and being able to observe weapons of unknown craftsmanship. He looked at Kiana and Mei who were carrying their bags and asked.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"If you don't mind, can you let me see what the material is? The shop you came to should be selling forging materials. I know a lot about this stuff, and I can show you some shops that sell it at a high price."

As a way of returning the favor, Welf offered to help.

Kiana and Mei did not refuse and simply put their backpacks on the ground and opened them.

Welf squatted down and took out something that looked like a fang.

"Hmm? What is this? I've never seen this material before."

Welf frowned as he looked at the material in his hand, and Kiana said, "Didn't you say you were a blacksmith? You don't even recognize this."

"Uh, cough cough." Welf coughed awkwardly twice and said, "Although I am a blacksmith, I can't say that I know all the materials in the dungeon. After all, I am only a level 1."

"I heard from Qin Mo that this material is called Cannon Dragon's Tooth, and it also drops with Cannon Dragon's Scale."

Welf nodded. "So it's a cannon... Nani! Cannon dragon! Isn't that a monster that only appears in the deep layer?"

"Yes, the monster on the fifty-eighth floor."

Because this batch of goods will be sold sooner or later, it is impossible to hide it, so I just said it out loud.

"Bell, your clan... is so powerful?"

Welf looked at Bell in a daze. "Is it Loki's family or Freya's family? No, if it's them, they shouldn't be worried about selling it."

"No, we are from Hestia's Familia."

"..."

Welf thought for a moment and said, "These are all very high-level materials. If you buy them from one store, they will most likely be sold at a lower price. So it's best to sell a portion of them from one store. Although running back and forth may waste some time, this is the way to maximize profits."

Welf took out a piece of gray cloth from his bag and wrapped up some materials. "Come on, I'll take you to sell these materials."

Just as Welf said, he took a few people to run back and forth to several shops that sold and recycled materials. Although he didn't know much about the materials for making potions, he was very familiar with how to sell the materials for forging at a high price and how to bargain.

"I will take you to the Hephaestus Familia to sell these last materials."

After running around for an entire afternoon, they finally sold out most of the high-level materials in several packages. After packing the remaining materials, Welf led a few people to the territory of the Hephaestus clan.

"The Hephaestus Familia, is it your Familia, Welf?"

Bell asked, following Welf.

"Yes, I will take you to meet the leader of our clan this time."

Welf smiled and said, "If you go to the clan's counter to sell them, you will inevitably have to bargain, but these are high-level materials. If you go directly to the leader, she will buy them directly. These materials are very rare."

Welf did not lead the group to the shop, but went directly to the door of a forge and knocked.

Even through the wooden door, several people could hear the sound of metal knocking coming from inside.

"The door is unlocked, come in."

A clear female voice was heard, but the knocking sound did not stop.

Welf pushed open the wooden door as usual, and the others followed him into the stuffy room. The blazing stove continued to emit heat, making the whole room feel like being in a furnace.

A brown-skinned woman, her upper body only wrapped in a cloth strip with her chest covered, was constantly hitting the metal on the forging table in front of her with a hammer. The sweat dripping from the heat was instantly vaporized when it fell on the metal.

"Oh, it's Welf, what's up?"

Welf put the package on his back down. "Tsubaki, I have some high-grade materials from the deep here. Would you like to take a look?"

Chapter 68: Actions of the Parties

At night, in the base of Hestia's family

"Thanks to Bel's blessing, we got to know a forger from the Hephaestus family, so we were able to sell it at a high price."

The sale of materials during the day went smoothly. Just as Welf said, Chun bought the materials brought by Welf at a high price without hesitation. As the strongest blacksmith in the Hephaestus family besides the main god, she was not short of money.

Chun is not a good businessman, but she is a pure blacksmith and she will naturally not refuse good materials.

"That's great! Bell-kun! You've met some good teammates too."
