Haki look at her, "Are you okay?". Gracia asked, "S… Sir Haki... Is this your home?". "Yes? Why? Is it that bad? Sorry if it didn't please your eyes.", Haki apologize. Gracia found out she makes Haki felt bad and apologize to him immediately to clear up the misunderstandings.
Since she was actually, astonished by the home. "No no! T… This house is actually amazing! Where did you get those seeds!? And... And! Those woods, That anvil! Everything in this house is remarkable! Who are you, Sir Haki?", Gracia asked politely after she was loudly shouting at him. "Well, Gracia, I used to be a king, but I was thrown away, and now I live here, far from my hometown", Haki explained to her with some lies and truths in it. Gracia believes him and feels pity on him.
"Sir Haki was a king? What kingdom Sir Haki used to ruled?", Gracia asked. "I forgot the name, it's been years, you know?", Haki answered even though, the lingering memories still inside his head. "Um... Sir Haki.", Gracia shyly said. "Yes?", Haki answered. "Can I touch that anvil?", Gracia asked. "Sure, why not?", Haki answered.
Gracia rubbed the anvil in awe and asked, "Do Sir Haki knows what this is made out of?". "I think it was made out of adamantite and zanite, why?", Haki answered. Gracia was too shocked. "D... Did Sir Haki said... Adamantite?", Gracia look at him back. He nodded. She jumped back and knelt down at him. He didn't know why she does that. "What's wrong?", Haki asked. "I'm sorry for touching your precious anvil!", Gracia trembling while answering. "Calm down. It's just adamantite.", Haki answered. "No no... Adamantite is really rare! It's said only available once in the millennium!", Gracia answered. "Oh, is it that rare? I thought it wasn't...", Haki answered. "Sir Haki... That is an absurd answer... Why did you think it was not rare...", Gracia asked. "Because I made it out of materials I have?", Haki said.
Gracia was baffled and shyly approaches him and beg for him, "Master! Can I learn under you!?". "Woah, Gracia. Don't be like this. Don't you have family? Your mom and dad will be worry.", Haki said. "Ah! Right! Then! I will ask for their permissions right away!", Gracia said as she ran away.
With that, Haki got a student. She came back with a lot of tools behind her back. "Master! I have come!", Gracia said. "Oh... Okay? But, I have no room left.", Haki said. Gracia smiled, "Don't worry master! I will chop the trees here and make my house! Believe it or not! I can do good architecture!". Haki smiles and allowed her. She bowed and went to chop trees right away. But, her axe breaks instantly. Then, she got back to him.
"Um.... Master...", Gracia shyly asked. "Yes?", Haki answered. "Can you lend me an axe?", Gracia looked at him with anticipation. Haki smiled and give one axe to her. She smiled and she goes to cutting the trees. It was too smooth like cutting butter. And she thought to herself, "This.... Isn't battleaxe, right? Master sure makes crazy stuff."
4 hours, she has made a good frame of a house. Then, Haki called her. She came to him. "Yes master?", Gracia asked. Haki gave her food. "Please don't overexert yourself, okay?", Haki said. Gracia feels moved and sit down, enjoying her food. Her exhaustion gone and she is filled with stamina. The world around her feels slower and she finished building her house in just 10 hours.
"Master! I'm done! Here is your axe.", Gracia said. Haki take the axe and put it inside the storage room.
