Chapter 281: Scared of Being Beaten
Rivasi was like a hanging frog, struggling with his short limbs, but to no avail. The hand on his throat was getting tighter and tighter, and Rivasi's black face was turning purple, and he couldn't even speak.

"Uh uh. Ah. Ah. Help. Help."

When an unclear voice was heard, Rivasi finally panicked. He vaguely saw the arrival of death.

"Let go, he will die!" Steklin rushed forward, jumped up and grabbed Luo Qiu's arm, trying to make Luo Qiu let go.

"Wow, brother Luo Qiu, I didn't expect you to be so strong."

Luo Qiu carried two dwarves on one arm, and this operation really opened Dak's eyes.

"These dwarves are just too weak."

Luo Qiu threw the two dwarves out with a light swing, and they hit the wall of the room heavily.

"Cough, cough, cough cough cough cough cough."

After falling from the wall, Rivasi knelt on the ground, covering his throat and coughing violently. There was a dark purple bruise on his neck, which looked very creepy.

"Rivasi, are you okay?" Steklin asked worriedly.

Dwarves are basically thick-skinned and tough, so the collision just now only caused some minor injuries to the two of them. Steklin was mainly worried that Rivasi's throat might be scratched.

“It’s okay”

Rivasi's voice was very low, and his previous arrogance finally disappeared. He looked at Luo Qiu with lingering fear and a look of panic in his eyes. He really thought he was going to die just now.

Oh my God, is this human a mountain giant? Why does he have such great strength? It would be such a waste if he didn’t become a blacksmith.

"Well done." Dak patted Luo Qiu on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.

"Oh, hahahaha, let me see who this is. Wow, isn't this the greatest craftsman of the dwarves, Lord Rivasi of the black dwarf? Why did you fall to the ground? This posture is really ugly. And what was that just now? Was it a scream? Lord Rivasi's scream?"

I have to say that Dak's ability to talk nonsense is probably as good as Rivasi's, especially when he put his fat face in front of Rivasi. His gloating look was so mean. It was hard to imagine that such a guy was the eldest son of the Eroyeken family.

Dak's ridicule made Rivasi feel like his face was burning, but he still didn't dare to say anything. He was really scared. He was afraid that the terrible human behind the fat pig would hit him again. Even if his body was made of iron, he would not be able to withstand it.

Going to cause trouble at this time would be tantamount to seeking death.

So even the black dwarf was scared. He looked at Dak with hatred and remembered the appearance of this fat pig deeply. He put his arm around Steklin's shoulder and limped away, not daring to say a single harsh word.

Although he looked honest, he was cursing Dark and Luo Qiu in his heart.

"When I get back and bring a large army here, I will beat the shit out of these two humans, especially that fat pig!"

It's very strange. It was Luo Qiu who caused such an embarrassing ending, but Rivasi's hatred towards Dak is even higher. It has to be said that the fat man Dak is quite good at attracting hatred.

"Hey, I just told you to leave, but you refused and insisted on being taught a lesson by my brother. Do dwarves have a masochistic tendency?" Dak said with his hands and feet gesticulating. It felt so good to scold a drowned dog.

Rivasi's body trembled, as if he was about to explode.

"Rivasi!" Steklin shouted. Rivasi looked up at Luo Qiu, and when he saw the latter's extremely indifferent look, the anger that had been accumulated disappeared completely, and he lowered his head.

Steklin breathed a sigh of relief. A wise man never suffers a loss. He was really afraid that Rivasi would get into a fight with the fat man out of impulse.

"Wait a moment." Luo Qiu's voice rang out.

The two dwarves' bodies trembled at the same time, and a bad thought arose in both of them.

"You seem to have made a mistake. I didn't allow you to leave." Luo Qiu said.

Steklin slowly raised his head, showing a smile that was uglier than crying, and said bitterly: "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

To be honest, Steklin now regrets bringing Rivasi along. If he had known that such a bad thing would happen, he would never have brought Rivasi along.

"Don't be nervous, relax. I'm not a devil. I just want to say a few words to you." Luo Qiu's voice softened and didn't sound so cold anymore.

"You are almost like the devil." This was the common thought of the two dwarves.

"I also bought a magic sword made by you from Starlight Trading Company this afternoon." Luo Qiu said as he took out the sword from the 'Infinite Black Hole'.

"Space storage bag?" Luo Qiu's technique of taking objects from thin air surprised Steklin.

The space storage item is considered to be the rarest and most precious item. There are no more than five in the entire Kendenia Empire. This thing is known to be the most difficult prop to make. Even the technology of the dwarves cannot make a space storage item.

It is rumored that these types of props are treasures left behind by the 'God of Space'.

"This sword is your masterpiece, right?" Luo Qiu asked.

"It's our masterpiece, to be exact," Steklin replied.

Indeed, this batch of magic swords was completed by Steklin and Rivasi together, but after discussion within the tribe, they were all registered under Steklin's name alone, because the number of black dwarves was small and it was not suitable for them to show up in public. This was also the reason why Rivasi came to drink in a depressed mood.

"Well, it doesn't matter who made it. I just want to tell you one thing." Luo Qiu tossed the sword back and forth in his hand and said, "The quality of this sword is at most a little better than scrap metal. If you mean this is the masterpiece of the dwarves, it's really embarrassing. Go home and practice hard for another hundred years before coming out. Or are the dwarves' skills just so-so and the rumors are just exaggerations?"

The bland words almost made the two dwarves jump up and down.

How dare this human doubt their forging ability? How dare he say their work is "just a little better than scrap metal" and ask them to go back and practice for another hundred years?

This is no longer a personal grudge. Luo Qiu's last sentence was actually a mockery of the dwarven forging technology.

Steklin and Rivasi have always been proud of being a member of the dwarf tribe. However, it is intolerable that the skills they have passed down from generation to generation, the crystallization of the wisdom of countless ancestors of the dwarf tribe, were ridiculed in front of others.

"Sir, I can apologize to you for what my companion did before, but please take back what you just said."

Steklin straightened his body and raised his head. Although his body size was still disproportionate to Luo Qiu, the aura he exuded was like a different person.
