	“They were also immigrants into this town, and to them, they had to leave their hometowns, so that would mean they are traitors, no? Of course, maybe the reason they left is that there are too many ~~blacksmiths~~, or that there was something they found unpalatable. But, what is the reason behind that? Isn’t living on a miry life without a purpose also a reason why it is unpalatable?

	“They gathered the skills, tools, materials, ~~blacksmiths~~ and everything else together for the sake of brainstorming a way to be chosen as the migrants, and created the legendary metal. This is something that can only happen by gathering people, who would never work together, to accomplish. This is the reason why you froze when I asked about how to create Damascus Steel, no?

	The fact that this place did not become a major production field for Damascus Steel itself vindicated Kusla’s view. The metal Robert and the others created was probably only similar to Damascus Steel, and not the real one. Anything fabled, or lost in history would have counterfeits, and Damascus Steel was no exception. Kusla did see wandering conmen selling dyed metals.

In other words, they had no intention of create a counterfeit, just their prides as ~~blacksmiths~~, and created an intricate replica to fool the Knights, only to never work on it again.
