After returning to the Blacksmith Shop, Ye Feng did not dare to let Avril be on her own, after they rested for a bit, he brought her to the Auction House and Knight’s Academy to inform them that she had already been found.
“I’m glad that you’re fine.” A sparkle appeared in Tiffany’s eyes after she saw Avril, she smiled and said: “You have to be careful from now on, don’t let sister Avril get into danger again.”
This was the first time she was meeting with Avril in person, even though she had heard of the latter many times in her conversations with Ye Feng.
However, the fact was that she had seen Avril before, it was just that they had not conversed before.
Hearing Tiffany’s words, Ye Feng smiled to himself sheepishly but did not speak.
“Thank you.” Avril bowed sincerely, she did not notice Tiffany’s expression but she said: “Thank you for the help and concern.”
Ye Feng had told her about the help that Tiffany provided, including the search that she went on, this made Avril feel very grateful.
How could a normal business partner be so concerned? Avril might think that something was up normally, but because the one saved was her, she only had gratitude in her heart.
“Don’t worry about it, Ye Feng and I are business partners, I can’t just watch as you get into trouble. Your safety concerns my benefits as well.” Right now, Tiffany was a little flustered with embarrassment as she quickly explained.
In her perspective, this was just a small matter, she only had to send out a few people. But seeing Avril’s seriousness, she felt a little stunned.
“Alright, that’s enough from you two, we need to go to the Knight’s Academy now.” Ye Feng smiled and looked at Tiffany in a solemn manner: “I will remember this, thank you very much.”
Be it for benefits or not, Tiffany had helped him greatly.
She had given him help in times of need, he was not an ungrateful person, he would definitely remember this.
“I’ll wait for you to repay me then~” Tiffany returned to her usual behavior as she waved her hand: “Hurry up and go, I have important business to do.”
After the two departed from Tiffany’s place, they went to the Knight’s Academy.
It was still the same vice-principal who met with Ye Feng.
He looked at Avril who was behind Ye Feng and sighed in relief before walking up to her and bowing deeply: “I apologize, it was our mistake that caused you to end up in such a predicament.”
The vice-principal’s action shocked Avril, she quickly grabbed his hand in panic.
Who was the vice-principal?
How could someone of such status bow to her?
“Don’t be like this, you don’t have to do this.” Avril panicked a little and subconsciously looked towards Ye Feng.
But Ye Feng looked away like he did not see anything.
“Don’t be like this… please…” Avril was caught between laughter and tears, she spoke in a gentle voice: “How can I blame the academy, the problem is that I am too weak. The Odin clan has such a huge influence in Aden City as well, if they want to target me, the academy cannot stop them.”
She was speaking the truth from the bottom of her heart, as the person who was protected, she naturally knew how hard the academy had worked.
But like what she said, if the Odin clan really wanted to target her, even if she had a bodyguard at all times, they would still be able to succeed.
“Sigh, it was our fault.” The vice-principal straightened his back and sighed deeply, he turned to the side and looked at Ye Feng: “Sir Ye Feng, we prepared a compensation gift for you, take a look and see if it is suitable.”
This was decided by the higher-ups of the academy, helping to find her could not make up for their mistake.
“Compensation gift?” Ye Feng was stunned before shaking his head: “No need for that, I had troubled your academy to begin with.”
He did not lack money, he did not need the so-called compensation, he was in a good mood now that Avril had returned safely.
“Regardless of whether you troubled us, since our student met with danger inside the academy, we need to bear the responsibility.” The vice-principal shook his head, taking out a large amount of forging materials from his storage bag: “Please take a look, these are mostly stage five forging materials, they should be of use to you.”
“This is too valuable.” Ye Feng frowned slightly.
“Please keep them, this is the sincerity of the academy. How about this? Consider a part of the materials as your remuneration for teaching.” The vice-principal smiled and said.
“…Alright, thanks for your generosity.”
Ye Feng did not reject him in the end, these stage five forging materials were quite useful to him, it would be hypocritical to reject the offer.
He even had a plan on how to utilize these materials.
“I intend to forge the best equipment for you.” After returning to the Blacksmith Shop, Ye Feng took out many stage five forging materials and looked at Avril: “Your equipment is not good enough, it was my mistake in judgment earlier, although the mechanical armor is an armor, you cannot wear it all the time.”
Avril could not be protected all the time, he needed to raise her combat strength so that she could defend herself better.
“Okay…” Avril nodded, Ye Feng was an expert in this aspect, she would not speak out of line. Also, because this was Ye Feng’s gift to her, she would not reject him.
“Let me think…” Ye Feng did not waste time, he thought to himself while forging: “I should place the emphasis on defense, weapons are easier to make, so I’ll leave it to the end.”
“What do you think about a tight fit inner armor?”
“Sure.” Avril tilted her head while listening obediently, she had no objections to this, she believed that Ye Feng’s creations were the best.
“Mm… in that case, we need to use a metal with great ductility, we will need special materials.” Ye Feng muttered to himself and started searching around.
Even though these special materials were not high in grade and Ye Feng did not have a large collection of them, he still found some usable ones.
It was enough to make one armor, although these materials were important, they were not the main component, not much would be expended when forging.
“I need to carve some formations that make the armor comfortable…” Ye Feng muttered to himself, he was very serious when forging.
This forging attempt was not simple at all, if he was not serious, it would likely lead to failure.
Avril looked at Ye Feng’s face dreamily, although she had seen this many times, each time she saw Ye Feng’s serious attitude, she felt that he was very charming.
After confirming the overall design, Ye Feng stopped speaking, he started to forge the armor.
