The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1136

Chapter 1136: Sculptors

Karl was nearly out of armour sets when he got the message from Sapphire that the sculptors had arrived.

The Dwarves were still in the yard when Karl walked out of the Library. The workmanship of the aging stone building had pulled them into intense discussion on what could be done to the old barracks building without completely tearing it down, but Karl could tell that they were also enjoying the stress relief of the healing totem in the yard.

All of them had luggage with them, on top of what was surely in their inventory.

"Good afternoon gentlemen. I am Karl, the Drodh Branch Leader of the Darklight Host. It’s a pleasure to meet you all."

The Dwarves nodded politely, and one middle-aged man stepped forward.

"I am Master Geralt. I am looking forward to working with you. From what we have seen, Drodh is quite different from Bara, but in a good way. Quite friendly."

The other Dwarves laughed, and the Master shrugged. "I thought that the best way to get here would be a straight line down the side streets. But apparently, Demons don’t build their cities that way.

We may have ended up in the more interesting parts of town."

Karl laughed and shook his head. "If you came here from the portal platform, you didn’t. There are some interesting sorts on the west side, but the east side is where all the questionable activities happen.

I recommend that you not go before you’re familiar with the city, at the very least.

The Demons are quite friendly, though. At least most of the time."

The other sculptors were openly laughing now.

"He got beat up by an old woman for cutting through her yard, and punched in the face by some massive feathered guy for talking to his wife." One of the others explained.

Karl gave the Master Sculptor a sympathetic pat on the shoulder. "I will find you a primer to Demon culture. But fear not, we’ve got a whole workspace filled primarily with Dwarves, and at least one of them can surely help you acclimatize.

There are a few others working here, primarily demons. But some Orcs, Dragonkin and others. Plus the dragon and the beastkin who usually work at the Zilaz Alliance house."

Geralt smiled. "Yes, I see that you managed to recruit teacher Sapphire. Her niece was my teacher, and she used to come bring her lunch."

"Everyone knows the dragon, it seems. She was the teacher for our Master Blacksmith as well."

Geralt looked around, then spotted Hassan, who was leaning against the entry of the workshop and smoking his stone pipe.

"Master Hassan! It’s good to see you."

Hassan harrumphed and rolled his eyes. "Good to see that you survived the divorce. It was a close thing there for a while. Well, welcome to Drodh. Come take a look at your new workspace, it’s across from the forges."

The sculptors all looked confused at the comment. The building was only a little over ten metres wide. There wasn’t room for them all to stand in there, much less work next to a forge.

They might not be engineers, but their spatial awareness was impeccable.
