Lady Khronisia stared long and intently at Kent before asking, "Is the Nine Underworld Flame Blacksmith really alive?"
She wasn't asking because she wished to become his disciple. It was because she, like every blacksmith in existence, had heard about his legendary feats, and so many took him as their idol, herself included.
Of course, if she got to become the disciple of such a person who hadn't been seen since the end of the Flame Era, she would be the happiest person in existence.
Kent smiled and answered, "I can tell you for a fact that the Nine Underworld Flame Blacksmith is still alive. So put in some effort, and who knows? He might just pop up and take you as his disciple. Just so you know, he has never taken a disciple before, but you might just become the first."
Lady Khronisia smiled and nodded. "While this would never happen, rest assured, I will do my best not to disappoint you. And thank you very much for accepting my request."
