After staring at it in silence for a bit, Bruno turned to ask me, "My lord, this mold…this isn't like anything that I've seen before. Are you sure that this will even work as a blade?"
I just said with a smile, "There's no problem. As long as you follow my orders, it will all be fine."
Bruno had a look on his face that made it seem like he didn't seem to believe me, but he had no choice in the end.
After all, I was the lord of this territory and the one that ruled over him.
If I gave an order, he had to follow it.
So Bruno poured the molten mixture into the mold that I had prepared.
He had thought that it would even break out of the mold, but to his surprise, the mold worked perfectly.
After waiting a bit, he opened up the mold to reveal…a block of iron.
This wasn't iron that was in a specific shape, but rather iron that was in the shape of a square. There was no way that something like this could be used to make a blade.
