-cain spoke softly : why am i here

-the king waved his hand, signalling.

-a old man dress in robe with a big wooden staff walked out.

-addressing himself : im the minister of magic in the wolf nation, u r summon here as our blacksmith.

-cain didnt understand a single word that the minister of magic is saying

-the minister continue saying : you are now our nation smither, you need to craft weapon for us from now onward.

-cain still didnt understood a word but he spoke : am i trap here forever?

-the minister of magic nod and say : yes and no. yes you be trap here forever if you are not able to provide

what we needed. and no, once u have forged what we need will release you

-cain was relieve by the answer and ask : ok i will do it, what must i forge and how much?

-the minister smile and reply : 100,000 weapon and you are free

-cain shocked and choke on his word...

-cain regain his sense and reply : 100,000 that impossible for me, i have no experience in forging

-cain didnt respond

-sato : hey guards, can u leave us for a moment. he's chained up anyway.

-guards nodded and left them alone
