"Fair enough. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's just try to verify it. Sistina, where's next?"

"Yes, let's go see some protective gear next. Right there."

A short walk according to Sistina's guide immediately puts the sign on the armor mark in my eye. Is it because of the nature of weapons in this world that stores look much smaller than weapons stores?

He can't even 'equip' his protective gear compared to a weapon that even has an ID, so he just wears it and increases his defense.

In other words, unlike weapons that are usually in demand for the average person who does not engage in combat, protective equipment is only in demand for people who assume that they are engaged in combat.

When I walked into the store, it looked like a boutique inside. But of course it's not like the store on Earth.

Wooden bones instead of mannequins, plate mails instead of clothes. Jacket-shaped protective equipment made of leather or leather instead of fashionable jackets hung with hangers. The shelves are lined with helmets, hats, cages, etc. instead of folded shirts.

"There's a lot going on... what do you want to gear up for? Has Sistina ever thought about her gear?

"Right... I don't really prefer anything that inhibits movement to swinging this around either"

Sistina checks the product as she walks through the store, which is not so big. Finally, I will try to use the "Martial Arts Appraisal" too.

"Plate Mail

Rank: G

Skill: None '

Is that it? I don't have many items. Is there a difference in appraisal results between weapons and protective equipment? I guess the lack of smelting value means that I can't train my armor in my Demon Swordsman position.

It's useful enough to know if you have the skills, okay?

"Dear Souzillo. I will have a chest and a cage, and then a leg bond. It doesn't have to be particularly good stuff. It would be helpful if you had the right things ready after you've assembled Mr. Souzillo's armor first."

"Torso, arms and legs... Hotaru, do I look like that too?

"Well... surely hard to move protective gear would suit you. We need to focus more on ease of movement than that and avoid being attacked by walking and body surgery.

In that sense, a similar piece of equipment to Sistina might be appropriate. "

Cage guarding hands to hold non-overweight torso protective equipment and weapons. After that, a leg bond that protects my legs that I plan to work out as my lifeline.

"Don't you want a head?

"Well... of course it would be good if there were, but helmets and the like narrow my vision and my hat leaves me anxious about my defenses. Then I don't think you should wear protective equipment on your head so that you don't rely on protective equipment.

Of course I think it's mandatory for those who fight with heavy equipment, etc., but I can't imagine Master Souzillo or I fighting like that. "

"Indeed."

It's not like you can't imagine Sistina wielding an axe in full body armor, but no matter how much contract you're benefiting from, Sistina's power won't allow you to get that far. Even the weapon takes a lot of weight.

Besides, unlike the games I was playing, the defenses of the protective equipment I equipped in my body wouldn't apply to my entire body.

In detail, the head, torso, arms, legs and accessories all add up to 100 defenses, so unlike the game where 100 defenses are applied wherever they are attacked, in reality, the only thing that protects me is the defenses of the defenses that were equipped where they were attacked.

No matter how well equipped you are on your arm, if you are attacked by a leg, you take light damage. Too obvious.

"All right, then let's look for it like that."

In the end, no skilled equipment could be found at the armor store. Well, I think I was just lucky to find two at the weapons store. I was actually finding another one, but now that my members can't afford the assets because it was a difficult weapon to use, I just had to refrain from buying it.

I mean, you can't use multi-verse roots or anything. Even some Mr. Lee is up to Nunchak. Multiverse roots are difficult to determine.

So there was no skill, etc., and all ranks were G, but the chest armor with steel breastplate on the skin torso on Sistina. Armor to the elbow. And the leg ties covering all the way to the tibia, all of which are made of steel, so they are a little heavy, but I bought them because Sistina said it was ok. The chest armor was 12,000, the armor was 20,000, and the leg bond was 15,000 mars.

None of them changed much in the quantity of metal, but they made a difference in price due to the difficulty of processing. Certainly it would be difficult to process the joint or something, and it would be a reasonable price because the armor could go all the way through the fingers.

I wore a heavy duty steel clasp because it was just as good as a gravity measure. Furthermore, a large coat of skin is woven from the top.

There is a steel cage on the arm, which is fastened by a belt of skin around the arms and wrists without passing through the fingers. I made this because Hotaru instructed me not to pinch extra foreign objects in my hand holding the knife.

The legs are also easy to move until they are completely worn, so we first compromised on defense and opted for a leather leg bond.

The price is 21,000 clams. 3200 coat, 17,000 cage hands, 6500 leather leg ties.

In total, Sistina has 47,000, and I have 98,700 mar at 51,700. Here again, Sistina's discount negotiations went well, so it came to 95,000 marl. With the funds already on hand so far down to a third, it would be gratifying if Sistina could thus establish a discount at all.

"I think we got pretty good stuff for early gear. If you take good care of it, you won't have to update your gear for a while."

"I see. So what do you need later if this is okay with your gear?

"Right... I think you should keep all the tools such as wound pills. After that, the water bottle and portable food, right? I'm not going to be in for that long because this is a tower exploration as a duty for the city tax, but I hear it's the tower that you don't know what's out there, so I think you should be prepared for the minimum."

Sistina would be right. The world of games is the only place where you can dive into a labyrinth or a dungeon for a long time, not thirsty, not hungry.

If Sistina loses consciousness, there will be no one who can recover, and if she gets lost, she may wander in the tower for a long time and suffer from hunger and thirst.

Let's get ready here.

So it was the pharmacist who led me to Sistina and arrived. Here Sistina bought five wound pills and three poisoning pills. There were three hundred mars of wound pills and five hundred mars of poisoning pills, so it was all three thousand mars.

That's when I realized that we didn't have any items that we could carry what we bought. I feel like three of us noticed about one, but maybe that's why we're all floating around on our first tower search.

Either way, I need something to store the demon drops that I knocked down in the tower, so I'm going to check them out at the next tool store.

The medicine I bought was helpful because my aunt at the pharmacy put it in my little wipes. Sistina was laughing that she missed negotiating a discount because of it. What do you care? Sistina seems to like negotiating discounts.

"Now, Lady Souzillo, here's a bit of a discussion, including future policy."

Sistina turns around in front of the tool store.

"What?"

"Whether or not we will continue to enter the tower, any of which is whether or not we will aim to crusade the tower. That changes what kind of water bottle you buy."

"What do you mean? We don't have water bottles together."

"That's not what we're doing together. First of all, water is heavy when you carry it with you."

"Yeah, I know."

"There are several types of objects that can carry water on that premise.

One is a water bag. Just carry water in a bag of waterproof leather.

It seems like a different kind of common feeling.

"The second is a regular water bottle. This can hold temperatures to some extent."

Oh! I mean a magic bottle, well, maybe it's literally a 'magic' bottle here.

"These two characteristics are that you carry only the amount of water you put in. But the last one is different. Remember yesterday's bathroom?

Bathroom?... Ah!

"The demon stone of water!

"That's right. There is a water bottle that can incorporate a small water demon stone into the water bottle to keep replenishing the water at all times. Of course it costs a lot...

If you're going to continue to go into the tower constantly and crusade, sometimes you keep diving for long periods of time, so this water bottle is a must without the need to carry tons of water. "

I see, the longer you dive, the more water you need for that. But it's hard to carry that much water. But if there is a magic stone of water that keeps pumping out water, it is no longer necessary to carry large quantities of water.

"Mr. Hotaru."

"Well, I guess it's good to go in with the tower to make quick money in this world."

"Yes, I understand. Then let's go there without compromise."

When Sistina and I entered the store, cluttered products were arranged narrowly. Is it imaginatively close to home centers in Japan? Not that wide, of course.

Sistina talked to her pretty sister, who was sitting at the tool store counter as she walked into the back all the way.

"Excuse me. I'd like a water bottle."

"Welcome. A water bottle is in the back of your right hand."

"No, I want a water bottle made of water demon stone, not that water bottle."

Your sister looked a little surprised, but when she saw the three of us' gear, she said no and disappeared into the back of the store.

"I don't sell shelves because products with demon stones are expensive."

Sistina explains it. You mean if they pulled it off, it wouldn't have stopped. You are correct as a security guard because there are no surveillance cameras and no G-men.

"Thank you for waiting"

Your sister came back with about four different water bottles, large and small, in her arms.

"This is the biggest thing. It can be slightly heavier but always retains a lot of capacity, so it is commonly used for multiple parties. You can also afford to use it when cooking."

My sister explained to me as I placed a water bottle about two liters of pet bottle on the counter. Sure, if it's that size, there doesn't seem to be a shortage of drinks at a six-man party or anything.

"This is the size below one of them. The capacity will decrease, but it will be a little lighter, so a lot of people buy this one."

Is it roughly a 1.5 litre pet bottle size? Still, it's 1.5 kilos... I feel tight and heavy to carry around.

"There's one more down here, isn't there? It's pretty convenient for your phone when you're around here, so it's also used in a way like two for a party. When one of them breaks, it's a spare."

This is roughly a litre pet. Would it be reasonable around here... but the water will gush out anyway, so if you don't plan on using a lot of water at once, you don't feel like you need that much capacity.

"And this is the smallest thing, isn't it? Many parties have one each around here. Some people don't like what they put on their mouths."

So, is this the size of a 500 milliliter pet? I'd rather have an indirect kiss with Sistina, but I'm afraid they won't like to insist too much on that either.

This would be the time to show some room for a de-virginized adult man.

"Sistina. Wouldn't it be nice to have each of these smallest things because they would make it harder to move if they were too big?

"Souzillo. You don't need my share. It wasn't always necessary. You can have it either way when you want it."

"Okay. Now, please give me two of these smallest sizes. And I'd like to look around the store a little bit more, so I'd like you to put your bill together at that time."

"I understand. Then call me when you're done."

Then we went around the store and got two crossbody rucksacks for me and Sistina. Mr. Hotaru decided to buy one of the things like a pouch because he didn't want to wear it very much, so he hooked it up to his belt and used it.

I also buy a portable food set and a simple cooking set. Portable food sets are small combinations of sun-dried meats and dried fruits with seasonings such as salt, and simple cooking sets are a collection of small pans, frying pans, simple stoves, solid fuels, and firestones that fold.

Take them together to the counter and buy them with the water bottle.

30,000 marl x 2 for water bottle, 200 marl x 2 for backpack, 100 marl for pouch. Food set is 100 marl x 2, cooking set is 500 marl. In total, it was 61,200 mars, but Sistina negotiated a discount of 1,000 mars per unit of expensive water bottle, so we paid 59,200 mars and we left the store.

"I think we're generally okay with this. Let's go back to the inn."

I went around quite a lot of shops on top of the slow moving out, so it would have been just in time because Oita Yang was about to sink in too.

Still, I was pretty hungry today because I hasn't eaten anything since morning because of my rush to move. I want to go home and eat something soon.
