Deal with the devil
When Jason regained his senses, he could only look at the fire giant while hiding his dry smile behind the mask.
"I was just looking at the exhibited goods when I saw you forging with that mysterious technique. Is that why every weapon has less than 1% impurities?"
Instead of beating around the bush, Jason decided to get straight to the point.
There was no need to hold back, to begin with.
He was in a neutral zone and if someone wanted to attack him defending himself was not really a problem.
Either way, Jason didn't sense any hostility from the fire giant. Instead, he seemed to be somewhat curious.
"You're a blacksmith too, am I right? It's not easy to figure out the difference between highly purified and almost perfectly refined weapons!
Some people are too ignorant to notice whether a weapon has been purified or not...those fools!! They're just complaining about the prices without caring about the effort we have to put in!"
