“Hello Lakian, we’re here” Maron greeted happily, Lakian didn’t greet back, but instead asked “What are you two wearing?”. Wuglat looked at himself and wondered what was wrong with his.

“I know, I'm sorry, but we didn’t have the time and money to buy something” said Maron, now guilty of what he’s wearing.

“You guys think this is a joke? We’re going to fight strong monsters, and you guys don’t have any armor on you? What’s with that small axe, you think that can kill anything?” Lakian complained.

“I know, I already said we’re sorry alright, and besides with my weapon I need to be agile, so I don’t need armor” Maron responded.

“Don’t need armor huh? You won’t be saying that when an ogre bashes you. Come with me” said Lakian, and walked back inside the gate, after a little while they came to a weapon shop and went inside. Maron and Wuglat was amazed by the variety of weapons on the wall, there was daggers, bows, spears, axes and staffs hanging on the walls.

“Pick your weapon” Lakian suddenly said, they were both taken back at what Lakian said, but Maron signaled Wuglat to pick, Wuglat already has his eyes on two axes crossed together, the moment he came inside. He didn’t dare get it because it looked like it was expensive, in the end he took a normal looking axe, but Lakian stopped him.

Lakian saw Wuglat eyeing the crossed axes, so he asked the owner “How much are those axes?”, “Those are enchanted axes sir, the other has a fire circle in it, while the other has a wind circle on it, with the wind axe once you throw it, it would come back to you, so it would cost 50 gold for them sir” the owner said. The price of the axes made Maron and Wuglat’s jaw drop, but Lakian said “I’ll take it” and dropped a pouch of coins to the hands of the owner.

Lakian took the axes on the wall and handed it to Wuglat, “I can’t accept this sir Lakian, this is too much” Wuglat said refusing the axes, in which Lakian responded with “Don’t worry, I'm rich” and walked out of the shop, before coming out he shouted “Follow me”, the two were dazed and hurriedly followed after Lakian, afterwards the two catched up to Lakian, Wuglat said “Thank you sir Lakian, I promise I would do my best”, in which Lakian replied with “Don’t worry kid, it’s really nothing”.

The three adventurers now came inside a shop, a shop Maron and Wuglat are familiar with, the Sew Nice. The three inside greeted Nasir, and Lakian suddenly said “You two, pick an armor you like”

“We’re good Lakian, you already bought Wuglat expensive weapons, and besides I already told you I don’t need any armor” Maron said refusing Lakian.

“I already told you too, you won’t be saying that when you get bashed by an ogre” Lakian retorted.

“We can’t abuse your goodwill Lakian, the axes of Wuglat is enough” Maron said.

“That’s right sir Lakian, Maron is strong, and I have this platemail” Wuglat said backing up Maron, afterwards Lakian walked to them and contemptuously said “Just because it’s expensive for you, doesn’t mean it’s expensive for me, I already told you earlier, I’m rich, peasants”, which made maron irritated.

“Okay, daddy Lakian, if that’s what you want” Maron said putting his hands up, and looked at Nasir after “Sir Nasir, can I see your best enchanted armor for me”

“Sure” said Nasir and took a full gold armor at the back. “This is called ‘Fortune of the Protector’, it is embedded with fire, water, lightning, and it has an enhanced physical defense, this will cost less than the ‘Cuirass of the Mighty’ of Sir Lakian, it’s only 120 gold” Nasir gleefully said.

“I want this daddy Lakian” Maron said teasingly.

“What about you Wuglat?” Lakian said ignoring Maron. “I’m okay with this sir Lakian” Wuglat said pointing at his own platemail, “Hurry up and pick an enchanted armor” Lakian raised his voice, which made Wuglat flinch and hurriedly asked for an armor to Nasir, Nasir went to the back and came back with silver breastplate, “This is called the “Terror Steel Battleplate’, I can guarantee you that you will be able to take an attack head-on from a Level 40 Mage with this plate, It will probably cost pretty even with your breastplate sir Lakian, it’s 400 gold”, Wuglat and Maron after hearing the cost almost had a heart attack, he couldn’t believe that there was a breastplate as much as this, wuglat stutteringly said “I ca-can't take that”

“I’ll buy the both of them” suddenly said Lakian, and dropped a pouch full of coins on Nasir’s hand, afterwards he immediately left the two of them with their mouth open. Maron and Wuglat quickly followed him after wearing the armors on.

Three adventurers could be seen on the street, one was a famous centaur, the other was an orc, and last was a guy with a full gold armor on, everyone was looking at the three, Maron couldn’t handle the attention, so his visor was down all the way, after a while they reached the gate and was met with two people and an angry naga.

“Where have you been? We’ve been waiting for an hour!” Aja shouted, “We’re sorry, we needed to buy something” Lakian replied with his head down, “Buy something my a-”, when suddenly a person in robes said “Is it him?” and looked at Maron, this person was covered by the hood of its robe. Lakian finally answered "Yeah, I hope so"

Maron was picking his nose when the person on robes, suddenly stared at him, “Uhm, Can I help you?” Maron asked as he was backing up, because the person in robes was walking up to him.

“Are you from earth?” the person in robed said with a soft voice. The question of the robe person made Maron's body jolt.
