The Dukes didn’t look at the blade in the same way Han Sen had . They all looked at it for less than a minute before handing it back over to Black-Moon King . The entire thing was done in a few minutes .
The young ones were not allowed to look at it by themselves . After they had all seen it, the ceremony came to a close . Black-Moon King invited a few Kings and Dukes over for tea . Some accepted and stayed, others declined and left .
Black Steel invited Rebecca and a few of the other young ones to the garden for a chat, Han Sen included .
So, Han Sen followed Black Steel to the garden . There, he sat down . Aside from Han Sen, everyone seemed to be acquainted with one another . So, there was no formal etiquette to follow .
Without Black-Moon King around, they were prone to speaking far more openly than they ordinarily would . As they began chatting, not a single person was left out . But with that being said, Han Sen did not say a word . Han Sen did not know anyone there except for Black Steel, and so he retreated into his mind to mull over what he had learned with the knife . He didn’t care for their topics of conversation .
Du Lishe, noticing that Han Sen wasn’t speaking with them, hummed and said, “Genius Han, you looked at Narrow Moon Knife for so long . And you kept saying it was so good, you could obviously detect something we could not . Why don’t you tell us what you saw, so that we too can learn it . ”
After Du Lishe said that, everyone turned to look at Han Sen . They were curious whether Han Sen really had learned something, or if it was all some sort of act .
Han Sen’s eyes were closed, still reviewing what he had learned . He hadn’t noticed Du Lishe was talking to him . His eyes were shut tight, and it appeared as if he was ignoring her .

Du Lishe, noticing him ignoring her, looked mad and did not say anything more .
Du Lishe’s silence did not mean others wouldn’t say anything, though . She was Moon Wheel King’s second daughter . She was pretty, and she was talented . She had many admirers .
The young ones that sat there with them were admirers of Rebecca and Du Lishe . Now that Han Sen had apparently ignored her, someone could not help but stand up for her .
“Didn’t he tell you what he saw?” a Viscount called Kriman asked dubiously .
“What did he say?” Du Lishe asked .
Everyone looked at Kriman, but everyone knew he wasn’t going to say anything nice .
Kriman laughed . “Didn’t you grow ears? Genius Han said it was a good knife . He said it many times . ”
Kriman spoke it in the tone Han Sen had, and Du Lishe laughed . “Ha!”

Kriman over-enunciated his words, laughing at Han Sen and pretending to understand, which made many people there laugh . The elegant ones smiled .
Han Sen sat where he was without emotion . He was deep in thought . He was afraid that occupying his mind with something else for a while would make him forget important details . So, he still did not hear them .
Han Sen continued to ignore the group . Black Steel frowned and said, “Han Sen has his reasons for viewing the knife the way he did . ”
Black Steel did not know how to participate in that particular debate, so this was what he said .
Kriman did not respect Black Steel . He only wanted to stand up for Du Lishe in the hopes of getting closer to her, and so he said, “Black Steel, you know knives . Similar actions from you might make sense, but I can’t feel the same for other people . He looked at it for half an hour, repeating the same two sentences over and over . If he is not educated, don’t pretend he is . This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone so dumb . ”
“Kriman, mind your tongue . ” Black Steel’s face looked grim .
Kriman smiled and said, “I don’t beat around the bush . If I have said something that is incorrect, then you can have him point out the mistake . If he can convince everyone, I will earnestly apologize . ”
Sad Night and Night Giant King, who had a grudge with Han Sen, looked over angrily and said, “Yes! If he saw something, let us hear what it is that he saw . If it makes sense, then we will apologize, too . What is the point in just saying that the knife was good, over and over . ”

Black Steel could see Han Sen still sitting where he was, not saying a word . He touched him and said, “If you are willing to, you can tell people . ”
Black Steel understood Han Sen . He knew Han Sen had seen something the others hadn’t, and that was why he stared at it for so long . What Han Sen saw wasn’t anyone else’s business, of course . Black Steel would not push Han Sen to explain if he wasn’t willing to .
But now that the people were saying things like this, Black Steel could not stand by and watch . He was worried for Han Sen . If Han Sen did not say something, his reputation would suffer . No one ever let a person’s reputation go .
Outsiders had a tough life in Narrow Moon . Han Sen had built himself a good reputation . Black Steel thought it would be a shame if it was destroyed now .
After being touched by Black Steel, Han Sen woke up from his daze . Han Sen looked confused, hearing what he said . And so, he asked, “Tell people what?”
He hadn’t heard anything else that had been spoken . All he had heard was what Black Steel had spoken to him .
But when that went into the ears of Kriman and the others, they misunderstood . They thought Han Sen was admitting he didn’t know or see anything . Hence why he had nothing to say .
Kriman laughed and said, “Black Steel, you heard him . I didn’t misplace my blame . I admire Genius Han for one thing only: his shamelessness . He didn’t learn anything, despite staring at it for half an hour . I couldn’t bring myself to do such a thing . ”
Sad Night coldly laughed and said, “Because he is a genius, isn’t that right? He isn’t like us . He is already so smart, he was able to tell us the shocking fact that it was a good knife . What more can we expect?”
Han Sen heard that and quickly understood what was going on without even needing to ask Black Steel .
Seeing Kriman and Sad Night speak, Han Sen coldly said, “I won’t tell you, but my teacher did teach me something . Instead of using words, I can perform, and what I perform will make you smile . ”
“We would like to see what shocking performance you could do for us . You are not going to perform the astounding Speech of Good again, are you?” Kriman spoke strangely .
He thought Han Sen was changing the topic, hence why he was repeating the same insults . He didn’t want Han Sen to escape this .
Han Sen smiled . He casually said, “I learned a geno art called Moon . ”
