《The Chronicle of a Witch》Chapter 31 New Armor?
Advertisement
In this city, there were two types of Armors, which was the leather ones that came from animals and monsters, and the metallic ones. They were sold in different stores, however. The metallic armors were sold in the Blacksmith while the armors from the monster materials were sold in the Armor Shop.
The armor from the metal was sturdier, naturally, however, they were also heavier. There were expensive metals that could be used to make a light metallic armor such as mithril, however, it was extremely expensive. Its price was easily ten times more expensive than gold. So, typical armors would be the heavy but sturdier type.
As for the armors from the monster materials, there were many types of them as well. Leather armor was one of the types, or the bones armor was another type. There was also scale armor. Because of the differences in the source of materials, the strength of the armors would be different as well. The scale armors that came from a Dragon, for example, was even sturdier than the metallic ones. But the typical leather armors were not as sturdy as the metallic ones, naturally.
The armors that came from monster materials, however, had another advantage. They were easier to enchant. For example, the armors from a fish monster would be easy to enchant so it had the characteristic of the fish monster. It could be water resistance, or you could swim without taking a breath while using that armor. Of course, such armors would only come from the high-ranking monsters.
And that kind of armor was what Leah asked the blacksmith, no, since he wasn’t working with metal, he couldn’t be called as a blacksmith. Mm, let’s call him armorsmith.
Anyway, there were two armors and by the quality of the leather, I would say that it was higher quality than the Rhino-Bear monster from the Newbie Village. That Rhino-Bear was enough to kill countless Players and if it were not because I accidentally created Slimerin, it would be impossible for us to win against that monster.
And here were two leather armors from stronger monsters than that Rhino-Bear. I wondered whether the Players at the current level could kill this kind of monster or not… well, probably not. The current Players were around level twenty to twenty-five. And this monster was probably level fifty monster, not to mention that it was a boss-rank monster. It was impossible for the current Players to kill this kind of monsters. Meaning, it would be impossible for the current Players to have this kind of equipment.
Well, unlike the villagers, the NPCs in the royal capital were far stronger than the current Players. If I remembered correctly, the strongest NPC in this capital was a Sword Saint and his level was level 80. Even though he was old, he was still far stronger than all the Players and even though a million Players attacked him at the same time, it was impossible for the Players to kill him.
Anyway, the current Players were too weak to get this kind of equipment. So, if I could somehow get my hand on this kind of equipment, I wouldn’t be defeated by the Players. As for the NPCs, I just had to wish they wouldn’t try to conquer my Dungeon, or I had to retreat from that Dungeon. Well, I would try my best not to retreat from my own Dungeon since creating a new Dungeon was troublesome. That was why the idea of getting a piece of over-powered equipment seemed like a good idea for me.

As I looked around the armors the shop sold…
“Is it just me, or the designs are really terrible?”
Well, not really terrible. Rather, I felt like the owner of this shop was probably came from Earth and from my era as well. The reason? The designs of the armors, especially for girls were similar to armors from anime. And by anime, I didn’t mean the proper armor that covered the whole body, but rather, the type of armor that exposed much of the wearer’s skin. Moreover, the exposed ones were the armors for females while the armors for the males were covered properly. Yep, the creator of these armors must be a pervert.
“No, no, no, young lady, don’t misunderstand us as perverts.” The shop owner abruptly spoke and it startled me a little. I turned around and saw a man in his twenties with a meaningful smile. It seemed his smile was a bit weird, but I ignored it.
“It is because of the differences in the combat styles between males and females.” The shop owner started explaining. “Females are gifted with flexibility, so their armors are designed with the purpose of not limiting their movements. That is the reason their armors are designed like that. However, we are not forgetting the fact that they are armors as well, and armors have only one purpose. It is to protect the body of the wearer. So, to protect that exposed area, we enchant the armors so it will create a barrier to protect those areas as well. Yes, it is definitely because of the combat styles of the females are different, not because we are perverts.”
Hoo, what he said was reasonable… was not something that I would say at the moment. I pointed at the armor hung at the mannequin. “Is that also why you make bikini armor like that?”
The shop owner coughed. “There are also other reasons, and the most important reasons, women are more fashionable than men. You see, it is really inappropriate for a female Adventurer to go with the same type of armor all the years, right? We have to design the armors differently because of that, and what you pointed at is our Summer Edition Armor. Oh, you can also look at our Spring Edition, Autumn Edition, and Winter Edition here.”
He pointed at another part of the shop. How should I put it, the shop owner was really convincing. Yes, he would be extremely convincing, if only this place had those seasons!
Let me say it now. Royal Capital of Acrodia, Acropolis, didn’t have four seasons! It was Spring all years-long! It didn’t have Summer, Autumn or Winter! And the reason why it didn’t have other seasons was none other than the power to manipulate the seasons done by the Acrodia Empire. Or rather, the royalties of the Acrodia Empire that lived in this city.
So, saying that those bikini armors were the Summer Edition armor and the other armors were the seasonal armor was definitely bullshit. Yep, he must be saying lies.
However, I had to admit that even though as armors their designs were definitely terrible, as fashions, they were quite fashionable. For example, I loved the white one-piece dress here.

“That is made from the skins of the Yeti and combined with the silk from the Giant Silkworms from the north. And although it looks thin, I guarantee that if you wear this, even if a wagon crash into you, you won’t feel a single thing while wearing this armor!”
…I don’t want to be hit by a wagon though.
“How much is it?” I asked out of curiosity.
“For you, my lady, I will let this piece of the beautiful dress go with just seventy-nine gold coins!”
Seventy-nine gold, huh? Was it expensive? Yep, it was extremely expensive. Just for your information, my dress that I wore right now was only thirty-three silver, and yet, this armor was seventy-nine gold. Yep, it was ridiculously expensive, but considering its effect, it should be normal, I guessed.
I didn’t want to waste my money on something like this. However, I couldn’t look away from this beautiful armor. The design was really beautiful. It looked like a butterfly. Well, a chained butterfly as there a collar chained to the lock on the middle part of the dress. There was also chain extended from both sides of the dress to the back, so it served to entertain a certain fetish, it seemed. There were ribbons on both sides of the sleeves, and the black color under the collar complemented the whiteness of the dress as if it tainted the white dress in a beautiful manner. The skirt was full of frills, however, it was not exaggerated either. The more I looked at it, the more I wanted to buy it.
“Eighty gold coins for this dress? Shop owner, aren’t you a bit too kind today? The production cost for this dress should be more than seventy gold coins, right?” Leah abruptly spoke from behind me. What, Leah, you knew things like that? The production cost of the dress was that expensive?
“Fufufu, I feel a kind of bond with the young lady over here. I feel that this dress is fated to be with her, so I can only let it go with the price.” The shop owner smiled as he looked at me.
Now, with their words, I felt even more uncertain. Should I buy it? Or should I not buy it?
“I think if you have money to spare, you should buy it. It is the best armor in this shop after all.” Leah said. “You see, this kind of armor only comes once in a decade. Shop owner, I believe this armor has an anti-thievery and auto-clean function as well, right?”
The shop owner nodded. “You are extremely right. Not only that, but it is also made from anti-bacterial material, water-resistance, fire-resistance, (add another hundred anti-somethings and something-resistances here) and even a Dragon wouldn’t be able to rip it apart! Oh, not to mention that it has several designs, though how to change it is a mystery now.”
…seriously, stop coaxing me to buy it. Also, I had spare money to spend as well, so perhaps I would buy it. Yep, let’s buy it. With those functions, I didn’t think that I would lose money after all. In fact, it seemed that it was really cheap.
So, after an instant of hesitation, I bought it and tried it right away. I looked at the reflection in the mirror. Yep, it was a beautiful dress and the size fitted me as well. Well, after all, it had auto-correction size as well, so it fitted me. Should I walk while wearing this dress? I didn’t think that it was a formal dress but rather a casual dress, though it was a bit too beautiful for it to be a casual dress.
“Woah, you look so beautiful!” Leah complimented me when I walked out of the fitting room. The shop owner nodded without saying a word.
“I think the dress is the beautiful one, not me,” I said with a smile to that compliment.
“No, no, no. You know, there are saying that clothes maketh man. Or woman. However, even if you have the most beautiful clothes, a horse won’t be beautiful wearing them. So, you are the beautiful one, and the clothes only enhance your beauty.” The shop owner praised me with his own words. I was really flattered.
“…Master, even though I want to say that you are beautiful as well, please don’t forget that this is just an illusion. You should try wearing it in your true appearance. Well, the auto-correction will correct the size in your chest area though.” Slimerin poured cold water on me. Ugh, I just remembered that it was not my true appearance. Also, what she said at the end was really annoying and I couldn’t help but pinched her hard because of it.
“Master, even though I don't feel any pain when you pinch me, but it is not a comfortable thing either." She paused for a moment before continued. "Master, don’t worry! I believe even in your true appearance, you will look beautiful as well! As for your chest, it will only show your pure and innocent look! Not erotic like the Goddess Briana!” Slimerin tried to correct her words. Fuh, I didn’t mind about what she said though. After all, it was true that no matter which appearances I was using, it looked beautiful on me. Yep, the dress was the beautiful one, not me.
Just as I thought like that, I heard another voice resounded in the shop.
“Oh, what a beautiful dress! Shop owner, I want that dress!” A beautiful girl appeared with her entourages. She had pink hair and pink eyes, a color that looked weird even in this fantasy world. And moreover, from her words and attitudes, I already knew what kind of personality she had. It was a personality better known as ‘pain-in-the-ass* personality’. Or rather, a spoiled princess personality. Yep, to face this kind of personality, the best course of action was… “Leah, let’s go. We’re going now.”
