"... it's hard to fix this..."

A vineyard shield with a twist - a magnificent man who looked down at 'Shine Shield' and cut his hair short - said the blacksmith frowning.

Weapons are consumables. There is no need for frequent maintenance, replacement, etc. when it comes to the class of weapons protection that Aria and the others have, but for the average mercenary, a blacksmith who manufactures and maintains weapons and an arms dealer who works with them is one of the most relevant stores.

The weapon armor given to the Saint Brave is the equipment of a former brave man passed on to Luke.

Aria and Remiss gear are also carefully selected substitutes for each of them, and even if they were first-class mercenaries, they are not the kind to get them early.

That is why I did not visit the weapons store in the village of Vale or in Purif, but this time again I visited the arms store to request the repair of my equipment.

A man lightly strikes the surface of a decorated blue shield with a hammer.

Fujido observed a tall noise called kankan a little further away.

The shield that Fujido was given by the Kingdom is a special alloy called "Vajra Blue Stone (Blue Metal)".

Unlike Holy Sword Ex and Holy Armor Freed, that shield was not the only piece of equipment used by the former brave men, but still Blue Metal was a metal that was highly resistant to both physical shocks and magical attacks, and was known as a material for first-class mercenary equipment.

Shields that had been explained that even dragon braces could be prevented. A shield that had survived every attack without making a scratch, but now has a fine scratch in its entirety.

It wasn't enough to call it completely broken yet, and there were no signs of crushing it after actually being attacked several times in the graves after the wax came in, but it's common sense among warriors to always have their weapons and protective equipment ready on the battlefield, and it's impossible to keep using the gear with the wax in it. It was only natural that we talked about fixing the shield while we waited for Remis to demodulate.

Instead of Fujido, who doesn't like men, Aria, who is also familiar with the knowledge of weapon protection equipment, returns it to the blacksmith.

"Does that mean there's no more room for repair? Then I'd like to buy a replacement."

Fujido's swordsmanship basically assumes the use of a shield.

Standing around without a shield can be different on its own, and if you wave your sword appropriately, it's hard to remember new swordsmanship from now on.

Just a little bit, a struggle floats over Aria's head when she changes the genre of swordsmanship.

A blacksmith sighed small at Aria, who narrowed her eyes and unconsciously gave her a bitter look.

Hit him with a fist in the back holding his shield.

"No, it's not like there's no room for repair. You, where did you get this shield? Vajra Blue Stone (Blue Metal) is a step inferior to Holy Silver (Mithril) and Vajra Divine Stone (Orihalcon), but it is quite valuable. I don't have any materials here, and I don't have enough equipment to handle them in the first place. Besides, there are signs that this shield - the high magic was incorporated in the molding. The procedure has already been completely destroyed, but to restore it to its full state, we need a magician who has learned specialized techniques in addition to a blacksmith."

In the words, the look on Fujido's face slightly darkened as he glanced at the kind of martial artefacts that were decorated on the wall behind Aria.

Perhaps you are anxious to be told that it is difficult to repair your own familiar shield, albeit for a short period of time.

Aria coughed once,

"Where can I take it and fix it?

"If it's enough to fix it, you should buy a new one. Ask the blacksmith who sold me this shield. At least we can't make it in this place."

The innumerable pieces in the shield were fully spread and also looked like a kind of decoration.

I guess I have my pride as an engineer. Answering just a little blurry, he makes a surprising look and looks up at Aria.

"You, what did you fight? Vajra Blue Stone (Blue Metal) is a material that prevents all attacks, from slashing, striking, and magic to braces, it doesn't hurt that easily. Besides, this guy was inflicted with the granting magic that increases hardness, even the junction against the attack. It shouldn't hurt to take the Golem attack from the front."

"... well, there's a lot going on..."

I can't believe I fought a monk (Priest), Aria clouds her words.

Originally, Fujido's shield was one of the things that slept in Aria's house, a shield passed down from generation to generation to the Lizarth family. The specs are largely in my head before I start my journey.

That's why I couldn't believe it. The shield of brilliance is a dish that was not scratched after several battles. Whatever it takes to hurt you, it's not that there's an early entry into the entirety of a magically reinforced shield. Not to mention who could have guessed, such as it was the monks who did it.

It was a relief to visit inside Aria the moment I heard that the shield had entered. If the shield was a little worse, if it had been delayed in issuing the shield, it would undoubtedly have been Fujido himself who would have been splattered instead of the shield.

A blacksmith points to a shield hung on a wall. The level of First Town mercenaries is high, and that's all they have money for. The shields lined up there have seen numerous precious weapons, and from Aria's eyes they are never bad objects.

But the blacksmith's voice is not too bright.

"We have a few shields, but nothing more than blue metal is honest..."

"I already have a"... "

"Even if it's in there."

Receive the returned shield and give it to Fujido. Fujido, who grips it in a familiar way, looked more like him than before.

"Blue metal is hard and light. It's in there and the magical aid isn't already working, but it won't break any more unless it takes a lot of effort. As soon as possible, you'll be king of the capital and go to the big city to fix it."

"... ok. But can I look at the spare shield for once?"

Originally, it is difficult to carry more than one heavy weapon or protective gear, but the disadvantages can also be alleviated by the arias who have the magic guide of storage. To Aria's words, the blacksmith man returned only one word with the kind of eyes he liked to see.

"Watch as you like. The price is on the side."

Along with Fujido, Aria tests the shields one by one.

The assortment of weapons stores is the main weapon, and the shield can only count. This is due to the fact that most mercenaries who level up in the Golem Valley do not deal with shields.

In the first place, the Wizard does not use a shield, and as for the Swordsman, few mercenaries deal with the Pramian Liu Orthodox Swordsmanship, which incorporates shielding into some of its swordsmanship.

Mercenaries who run through dangerous fields tend to emphasize their attacking power, lightness, and ability to relay, and are at will different from knights who value protection.

Knights come to the Golem Valley to raise their level, but knights belonging to the country are given their protective gear by the country. The demand for shields at weapons stores was low, and there were fewer options on their own.

And Fujido has even fewer options.

A shield as big as the shield of brilliance I used to use is lowered off the wall, and the rattan I tried in my hand roars low.

"... that's heavy"

Move it up and down slightly two or three degrees to show it, but I did see a difference in that movement compared to when I manipulated the shield of brilliance.

"Vajra Blue Stone (Blue Metal) is pretty light, even if it's not as good as Holy Silver (Mithril)..."

"Hmmm... I guess it's going to take a lot of time to get used to taking it out only during battle..."

Even Fujido's muscle strength isn't high, and his health isn't as good as that of a man's mercenary. There is also a sense that Imando is able to move properly, but it is also large that all the equipment is light.

The thick black shield does look sturdy, but Aria, who tried to take it, also frowns slightly.

The shield was slightly heavier even from Aria, who had originally performed Pramian swordsmanship.

"Golem seems to need this thickness because the attack is' heavy '"

"Will it be lighter if the level goes up?

"I think it will alleviate somewhat..."

Level up is strong growth but not all-purpose. Originally stretchable statuses grow more, and less stretchable statuses do not grow too much.

The high rise width of Fujido, a woman, is agility such as magic and instantaneous power, and the muscle strength and strength growth required to hold a shield shouldn't be that great.

Fujido waves his shield two or three times with his neck tilted. Seems to hold it for once, but I guess it feels different.

I'll try to quantify the other shields on the side of it, but what else is about a tower shield or a small shield (buckler) about thirty centimeters in diameter that can completely hide the entire body, and there's no shield that looks just right. If not blue metal or misrills, the weight of the shield is proportional to its ruggedness.

"... you'll still have to keep using your current shield. If you go back to King's Landing, you'll be able to find a way to fix it."

"Well let's just buy this... I would also say no worries if I was ready - whoa... high!?

Fujido gives a bitter voice when he sees the price.

Aria and the others were given a thousand luxe gold coins as a reserve for the Demon King's Crusade… 10 million luxes were given in addition to the tools necessary for the journey such as weapons armor and travel clothing, but the price of that shield is given a value of one million luxes.

You heard that voice, and you stare at me like a blacksmith shooting to death. Fujido smiled bitterly and turned his gaze to the price tag again.

"The shield will be really pricey because of the low demand. Even so... it's not as good as a weapon"

The price of weapons and protective equipment is far higher in the first place compared to household goods. Of course, Fujido's Holy Sword Ex is not as good as the Demon Sword Lightning Howl given to Aria can be purchased no matter how many gold coins are loaded.

"But it's just a metal shield..."

The voice of Fujido grumbled so uncomfortably at Aria's words. I heard that and laughed as the blacksmith intimidated me.

"It's not just a metal shield. It's a metal shield that protects your life."

That price is not easy for the Arias, who have been moving forward with their funds cut off little by little over the past few months.

But even more so are the words of men. Aria and the others can't lose. If you save and die, you have no ex or child.

Fujido roaring with his eyebrows in the letter Ha. And then there was a voice calling Aria and the others from behind.

"Hey, come on. Nao, Aria!

It's the voice of Remiss. When Fujido and I meet each other in the face, once the shield is undone, we head to the voice.

It was a mistake that fell once, but sleeping overnight restored some strength and was enough to walk. We decided to take a few days off in full swing, but we also know what caused the fall and it won't be far to demodulate.

It would have been nice to rest in the inn, but I've been following you because I'm free.

Rimis was in the corner where the weapon was placed with Gresha.

It's a corner lined with weapons from melee positions, except for swords. There are lines of weapons that are not used too much among mercenaries, such as spears, armor (gauntlets), and hand axes.

"Weren't you supposed to look at the magician's weapon?

"Yeah... no, I've already seen that one. Look at this more than that."

A remiss refers to a weapon embellished on the wall.

What was there was one giant weapon.

The thick pattern made of black metal is also about the thickness of the wrist of the rim, and the length is about the height of the rim. But more than that, it's the head at the end of the pattern that catches my eye. There was no decoration in the metal box, which was about a meter across and fifty centimeters across, except for the atmosphere, which looked heavy.

It is also large, its boneless appearance, and it emits an international discoloration among the weapons lined up.

"You're a warhammer. But it's a lot bigger than the average thing. Is that a weapon for the golem?

Aria opens her eyes and praises her.

A weapon that no knight or mercenary would use much longer. In one way or another, monks and others who can't hold a blade often use it, but I've never seen anything as big as the one in front of me.

It's hard to get around when it's so huge, and the hammer head is too heavy and unbalanced. It would take so much strength to handle it well that it would not be comparable to what would be required for the shield you had earlier. And with so much power, more useful weapons can be used.

Obviously a weapon lacking in practicality. Perhaps there were no buyers and they were in line for a long time, the numbers written on the price tags placed on the sides against their size are also a lot cheaper compared to the prices of the weapons around them.

"Heh, you have these weapons too... So, what's wrong with this?

Fujido speaks for Aria's inner heart. You know enough to know if you can handle this even with a remiss who doesn't know much about weapons.

Dropping her gaze down, Gresha, who appeared somewhere in a bad mood after she went out alone yesterday and came back for a while, was looking up at the hammer.

Remiss puts his hand on its head in a casual motion and says as he strokes it. The look on Rimis's face as if she had seen something strange herself.

"This girl wants this."

Unexpected words. Unexpectedly I see Gresha again. That has not changed at all since before. I'm not nostalgic for the Arias, I'm not claiming myself. She's a mysterious girl who followed me because she wanted to follow me for some reason.

Unbelievably, I ask the remiss back again.

"... Huh? Is Gresha here?

"... Yep"

"... this isn't food, is it?

By and large, the warhammer arranged in front of me is bigger than Gresha, as far as I can tell. Even if it was food, you wouldn't be able to eat it just fine.

Gresha turns her dark green eyes to Aria, who thinks about it. Innocence is a small voice with an overly invisible look of emotion, but I said it with a voice that pushed and killed some uninterrupted emotion.

"Me too... Takata"
