The Dwarven King’s past

Then he said with a bitter smile, "It seemed that you held back in our duel."

There was a bit of a blaming tone to his voice, but it was more teasing than it was angry.

I just smiled back at him without saying anything.

There was no need for words, the look on my face made it clear what I was trying to convey.

The Dwarven King also didn't push this since he knew that everyone had to hide some of their cards. This was just the natural order of things when one was in a foreign land.

Only by keeping cards hidden would one be able to remain safe.

He didn't hold it against Zwein since he knew that he would do the same.

Instead of continuing this discussion, I suddenly asked, "What happened between the three of you that this happened?"

If Elsa was here, I definitely wouldn't have asked this question.

But since she wasn't, I couldn't help being curious about this.
