This was after forming the knights division.
“Are you talking about my armor?” Mercedes responded to Grid’s call and was confused. “Your Majesty will make armor for me?”
“Yes.”
Mercedes’ reacted to Grid’s words like a bolt had come out of the blue, “That is ridiculous. Your Majesty can’t work for your subjects.”
Of course, Mercedes knew that Grid’s root was a blacksmith. However, she was currently talking common sense. Which king in the world would put in labor for their subjects? A king’s subjects couldn’t be given priority over a king’s convenience.
“Please reconsider.”
Grid shook his head at Mercedes’ concern. “In the end, it is for me. The stronger you are, the stronger I am. Don’t feel burdened.”
Mercedes’ main armor was heavy armor. It was right to say that she wasn’t complete when wearing leather armor. Nevertheless, she had competed with Piaro for a while in his field. She was a really lovely person. Grid wanted to make her complete as soon as possible. “Let’s go. There are many things I have to make in addition to your armor.”
“...I understand.” In the end, Mercedes was unable to break Grid’s determination and bowed deeply. Her liking toward Grid was growing day by day.

“Will your parents be happy if you die in a place like this?”
“You...! Don’t mention my parents!”
“I sincerely pity your parents. How sad would they be because their child committed a crime and ended up in prison?”
“...”
A terrible criminal was trapped in Reinhardt’s dungeon.
Reidorn—he was the worst criminal who had tried to assassinate Grid during the founding of the Overgeared Kingdom. They wanted to find out who was behind him. This was left to the 1st ranked orator, Huroi. Huroi’s daily routine began with him questioning Reidorn.
“If you want to see your parents again, then tell me! How dare a motherless person like you try to assassinate King Grid?!”
“Kuk! Kukuk! You stupid person. How many times do I have to tell you? It was my own plan. I didn’t receive instructions from anyone.”
“The king of a nation... It was your own idea to attempt assassinating a king on the day of the founding ceremony? Who would believe this obvious lie? Your parents won’t believe it!”
“You bastard!” Reidorn wanted to regain his composure, only to become agitated again. “I told you to stop bringing up my parents!”
“Why do you get angry every time I talk about your parents? Am I cursing your parents?”
Reidorn snapped every time Huroi mentioned his parents. This was the power of Huroi’s Taunt skill. Huroi used Taunt every time he mentioned Reidorn’s parents. So, why did he bother
