Snap!

The dwarf threw the wrench at his feet and said angrily: "What do you mean by no grievance? I tell you, I am incompatible with the Olaf family!"

"This is strange. The island residents said that you are the only remaining keeper of King Olaf's tomb. Logically speaking, you should have a good relationship with the Olaf family. How can you have a grudge?"

Jiang Feng asked in surprise.

"Hmph! Little guy, you don't know something! No dwarf in his right mind would be willing to stay on this small island to guard the tomb. I am forced to take on this hard job. Do you think I can have no resentment in my heart? ?" the dwarf complained angrily.

"Uncle Dwarf, can you tell me in detail why you were forced to stay on the island to guard the tomb?" Gao Fei asked curiously.

"Oh! This is a long story!"

The dwarf cast a spell and conjured six benches out of thin air. He sat down first, and then motioned for the visitors to sit down as well.

"Many years ago, when Karl Olaf was still alive, he saved my father's life from the claws of a ferocious white dragon!"

"My father is a good man who repays kindness. I am grateful for King Olaf's life-saving grace and swear to follow him forever."

"Not only that, my dad also pointed at me, who was only a 30-year-old kid at the time, and said to Karl Olaf: 'My son will also be loyal to you and your descendants, and he will never change. '!"

"In this way, I became a vassal of the Olaf royal family inexplicably."

The dwarf became more and more angry as he talked, and couldn't help but jump up and curse.

"Special code! I didn't understand anything at that time, so my father forced me to swear allegiance to Karl Olaf. Who do you think I should talk to for reason?!"

"After Karl's death, my father personally presided over the construction of the royal tomb for him, and forced me to stay on this little booger-sized island to guard the royal tomb... Mader, why? Why would you do such a stupid thing? , Aren’t you annoyed?”

"For the past two hundred years, I have spent every day in the fire. I wish I could dig up that damn Karl's grave!"

"Uncle, calm down first!" Gao Fei patted the dwarf on the shoulder and asked him calmly: "Since you don't like the job of guarding the tomb, why don't you leave the Island of Rest and do something you like more?"

"Alas! Young man, you don't understand the traditions of our dwarf clan. The tradition that dwarves must abide by is that they must not betray the tradition... The ancestors made an oath, and the descendants must abide by it!"

"Wori! Where are you leaving the matryoshka dolls here?" Gao Fei couldn't help complaining, "What kind of bullshit tradition is this? It just creates an endless cycle!"

"Yes, yes! The word 'death loop' is very insightful!"

Joseph Cooper nodded.

"Uncle, if tradition becomes a shackles, what you should do is let tradition go to hell, remove the burden imposed on you, leave this island to pursue freedom, and embrace a new life of your own." Gao Fei said sincerely. explain.

"Hey, young man, do you think I don't want to leave?"

The dwarf turned and walked to the tool rack, pointed to the dusty big backpack and said to Gao Fei: "Look at this, I have packed my luggage a long time ago, and I am always ready to escape from this stupid oath. As soon as I make up my mind, I will leave immediately. Pack your bags and hit the road, leave this damn island and run to freedom! I dare say no one can stop me!"

"That's good, uncle. When do you plan to hit the road?" Jiang Feng asked.

The dwarf remained silent, his expression changing from anger to hesitation.

"Uncle...it's been two hundred years. Are you still unable to make up your mind to run away to this day?" Eve asked softly.

"Nonsense! I'm not that indecisive coward!"

The old face of the dwarf suddenly turned red.

"You little guys, don't look down on me! Huh! I'm leaving now, as soon as I say! Anyway, there's nothing worth missing on this shabby island!"

"So have a safe journey."

"No... I really want to leave? Don't you want to stay?" The dwarf looked embarrassed and annoyed.

"There is nothing more precious than freedom, and of course we will not keep you." Gao Fei added with a smile, "It would be better if you could give me a map of the tomb passage of King Olaf's mausoleum before leaving."

"We'll discuss the tomb passage map later. Young man, do you think I really should leave? Isn't it unjustifiable to violate the oath made by my father?"

"Hey! It's an agreement made more than two hundred years ago, and it's not of your own free will. What's there to care about?" Gao Fei patted the dwarf on the shoulder and said seriously: "Dear Mr. Joseph Cooper, I would like to In the name of Karl Olaf’s descendant and the current chief of the Olaf tribe, I declare that the contract between the Olaf royal family and the cooper family is officially invalid from today on, and you are free!”

The dwarf's broad shoulders trembled violently, his eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red, but there was still a look of hesitation on his face.

"Then...I have to leave? I really have to go..."

"Uncle, you haven't made up your mind yet, right?" Jiang Feng encouraged, "A manly man shouldn't be so indecisive!"

"I didn't! I had already made up my mind!"

The dwarf couldn't stand her provocation and angrily grabbed his backpack. Just as he was about to put it on his back, the straps of the backpack, which had been gathering dust for many years and had become rotten, were disconnected, and the heavy backpack fell to the ground with a thud.

Eve, Al and Ush couldn't help laughing together when they saw this funny scene.

"You're laughing your ass off! What's so funny about this!"

The dwarf was full of shame and anger. He hurriedly used a "repair spell" to reconnect the backpack straps, put it on his back and rushed out the door angrily.

The short and stocky wizard, carrying a large backpack like a turtle shell, suddenly appeared on the street, immediately attracting the attention of passers-by.

The dwarf initially tried to keep his face straight, pretending to ignore the curious eyes of passers-by, and walked towards the dock with big strides.

However, not long after he walked out, a little boy's unintentional words broke his defense.

"Uncle Joseph, are you not going to continue guarding the tomb?"

"…………"

The dwarf stopped, lowered his head and stood for a long time, and finally turned back the same way, returned to the workshop, threw the backpack back to the corner to continue eating dust, sat on the bench with a depressed face.

"Uncle, are you okay?"

Gao Fei looked at him sympathetically.

Mr. Dwarf shook his head and sighed bitterly.

"How sad, how sad, the cooper family... We can never get rid of the shackles of tradition and pursue freedom from the bottom of our hearts..."

"Uncle Joseph, to be honest, I came to the Island of Rest this time to retrieve the holy axe of my ancestors and fight against the frost giant warlock Gelmir who enslaved the Olaf tribe." Gao Fei tried to persuade the dwarf to cheer up.

"You are guarding the tomb on the island mainly to guard the holy axe of King Olaf and prevent this artifact from falling into the hands of criminals."

"If you can provide me with a map of the tomb passage of the king's tomb so that I can successfully retrieve the holy axe of my ancestors, you don't have to stay here to guard the king's tomb. You can get rid of the oath and regain your freedom."
