Head Commander Hoover was a little surprised. His sword was already a top-quality magic sword made by Abel. If Abel gave him another one, it could only mean one thing: this new one was better.
As a Head Commander, he loved weapons beyond everything. A good weapon was a knight's lifeline.
He had been holding knight swords all his life, but a curious look suddenly emerged on his face when he held this new one. The sword looked ordinary; it didn't even feel like a magic sword.
But this had only made him even more excited. This was grandmaster Abel's new work, and he trusted Abel more than his own feelings.
"Grandmaster Abel, I will protect the duchy of Carmel with the sword you grant me!" Head Commander Hoover placed both hands on his sword and bowed.
After sending off the heads of the families and Head Commander Hoover, Abel relaxed again. With the help of those people, the Duchy of Carmel would be stable.
