Although she was short, she was very cute. Unlike the other dwarves, she was very delicate. Her apple-like cute face was filled with a sincere smile.
Smiling, I took the wooden bowl from her hand. A sweet fragrance wafted into my nose from the bowl. Hmm…it smells so good. Is this the food I often ate when I was unconscious?
She took a sip. Yes…it was indeed it. It was sweet, fragrant, and smooth. She didn't have to swallow it, and it flowed down her throat into her stomach.
He tried to get down to the ground and took two steps. En…there was no problem. He had almost recovered. Other than his body feeling a little weak, he was no different from a normal person!
Thus, I settled down in the Dwarf village. After a month of rest, I completely recovered. With my intelligence as a child prodigy, I quickly learned their language. Although I couldn't learn all of them, I definitely wouldn't be wrong with the common everyday language!
The Dwarf girl who gave me porridge is called Nasha. She's an 18-year-old Dwarf girl. I thought she was about the same age as me, but she's actually eight years older than me!
After Nasha's introduction, I understood a lot. The world I was in was no longer the original world. Of course…this world didn't have a name, just like my world on Earth didn't have a name. A world was a world. Planets could have names, but worlds didn't!
Until now, I still can't believe that I've left my original world. Everything feels like a dream, so…from now on, I'll call this world a dream world.
This world was divided into seven large continents, fourteen smaller continents, and countless islands. Nasha only knew that the continent I was in was called the Heavenly Dream Continent, and the continent that bordered us was called the Fragrance Continent. As for the other continents, she had no idea!
The continent we are on belongs to the Sunset Empire. Before the Thousand Year War, the dwarves originally lived in the middle of the Heavenly Dream Continent, together with humans, orcs, and other races. But after the Thousand Year War, in the end... the dwarven tribe with only a few thousand people was chased here, hiding under the harsh environment of the active volcano to struggle for their lives.
From the point of view of the outside world, the Dwarf Race had already been exterminated. The Heaven Dream Continent was now completely ruled by humans. No one knew that in such a remote place, the Dwarf Race still existed. Otherwise…they would definitely not be able to continue living.
The Dwarf Race was a hardworking and simple race. Although they were born warriors, they did not like fighting or war. They only liked to use their hands and hammers to forge weapons, farm tools, and armor! The dwarves 'blacksmiths were famous all over the world. No outsider could reach their level because…they had dedicated their entire lives to the cause they loved the most!
Although their lives were already very difficult, the dwarves did not stop their work. Even if no one bought the weapons they forged, they still forged and smelted day and night, because... forging weapons and armor was the duty of the dwarves! In the words of the Dwarf Village Chief,"If life does not stop, forging will not stop!”
There were more than 1,400 people in the Dwarf Village, all of whom were Dwarves. They made a living by forging weapons and equipment. When they were free, they would go to the village to plant papayas. The entire village relied on papayas to survive. Fortunately, this place was very close to an active volcano. It was summer all year round, and there were always fresh papayas to eat. The Dwarves did not have to worry about their livelihood!
Since my body has completely recovered, I can't continue to eat for free. Although I'm only ten years old, the dwarves who are shorter than me and younger than me are already helping my parents. What reason do I have to be idle?
Dwarves had many jobs. They had to search for ores, transport ores, crush ores, smelt ores, forge ores…If they were to subdivide them, there were more than twenty jobs!
However, because I am too young, I can't do most of the work, such as finding ores and transporting ores. I can't do it!
Ores were easy to find. There was no need to go to the mountains to mine. One could just pick them up in the wilderness. Active volcanoes often spewed out rocks, and these rocks were ores that contained various metals. One just had to find them in the wilderness and transport them back.
However…the wilderness was not peaceful. There were magic beasts everywhere, from low to high level. There were all kinds of magic beasts. The dwarves rarely went out to mine. They would just collect some iron ore from the mountain walls!
Generally speaking, the ores that were closer to the village were of lower quality, and the ores that were further away from the village were of better quality. There were many ores that were beyond a certain distance. After hundreds of millions of years of eruption, the entire ground was covered in ore layers, but at the same time, the danger had greatly increased. Village Chief Ju said that he once encountered an adult salamander. More than 60 dwarves who went with him died, and only he escaped!
Even though the Salamander was not a dragon and did not have any blood relations with dragons, its powerful physical attacks were not something that dwarves or even humans could contend against!
The reason why they rushed over to my place the last time was because of that earth-shattering explosion, which caused all the magical beasts to disappear. That was why they mustered up their courage and went to mine in the distance, and also saved me, who was at the center of the explosion.
This time, it was the first time in the past 50 years that the dwarves had left the village 100 kilometers away and reached a place more than 200 kilometers away.
Right now, I am not allowed to leave the village. Just like the other dwarven children, once we go out, we will immediately be torn apart by ferocious beasts in a few seconds!
I can't do the work of crushing ores either. It's not because of anything else. With my strength, it's a joke to use a big hammer to crush ores that are as hard as steel!
The only thing I can do now is to help the dwarf uncle sweep up the crushed ores, use a small shovel to put the crushed ores into the iron basket, then bring them to the smelting dwarf uncle, and then transport the refined metal to the forging dwarf uncle. I'm just a small errand boy!
It was true…In just a month, my body had become stronger. Various parts of my body had begun to bulge with muscles. I finally understood why dwarves were so thick and strong. They worked…It was all physical labor. It was difficult for me not to become strong!
It has been two months since I woke up. In the first month, I did nothing but rest and recover my strength and spirit. From the second month onwards, I started to run errands.
When I was on Earth, my daily job was to study. Learning had become my habit, so…when I had nothing to do, I would stand beside the Dwarf uncles who were smelting or forging, and learn their forging techniques! After a month, with my intelligence as a child prodigy, I've learned almost everything. However…without strength, you can't do anything! Forging iron is not embroidery. If you don't have the strength, don't even think about it.
Looking at the weapons and armors that shone with cold light…appearing in the hands of the dwarf uncle, I couldn't help but feel envious. I finally understood why they were so persistent. Every time they forged a weapon, I believed that they would feel a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.
Dwarves were all born warriors. This saying was true, but also not true. No one was born that way. Hard work was the most important factor in determining everything.
According to my observations, dwarves were born warriors because of their hard work. Although they didn't deliberately train themselves, their lifestyle determined that they would definitely be the best warriors.
The 40-kilogram ore crushing hammer had to be hammered over 10,000 times every day, and the 20-kilogram forging hammer had to be swung non-stop every day. Coupled with the transportation of ores, such a huge physical exercise had given them strong bodies and exaggerated arm strength. The reason why dwarves liked to use huge axes as weapons was that the weight and length of huge axes were similar to that of forging hammers.
Although there were times when I missed home, but…once I started working, I couldn't remember anything. Dwarves were the kind of people who didn't care about anything else when they were busy. Once they started working, unless it was time for dinner, otherwise…no one would be willing to be distracted by other things. If I wanted to be absent minded, I could guarantee that no one would notice. But then again, in such a strong working atmosphere, who would have the nerve to be absent minded?
After a tiring day, I finally returned to my room. I waved my numb but increasingly powerful arms. I smiled excitedly. Tomorrow! Tomorrow morning, Grandpa Village Chief will teach us the battle axe techniques of the Dwarf Race because…we can't hide in the village forever. If we want to leave the village, we must learn basic self-defense martial arts!
