Chapter 246: Weapon testing. (2/2)

All of them headed back to the shop to discuss the price and Elodia was quick to calculate everything along with the friendly discount They would need so and material costs but all in all he didn’t think it was a bad price

“H around it’s better to have a good weapon, do you have any of those divine artifacts though?”

“Those are still in the testing phase, I would also need to get permission from the church if I wanted to actually sell them”

“You mean… if you wanted to sell them in the open, that is”

Senna winked toward Roland as she knehat he was leading on to While it was possible to buy the divine etting a proper pery of their Gods had to go through the temples

This was clearly in place to pad out the church pockets with money They wanted to control the market when their items were involved There also wasn’t really a way around it as all of thefroood price, give ‘eet theed during the escape he was in need of a replaceet a sturdy shi+eld of a siical barrier as well as a repelling effect

Orson on the other hand found hiot was made from aether durasteel but there was one person that didn’t look happy Grisalde was holding a battle axe that was probably heavier than the war hammer he recently made

“What can’t afford it? Want h~”

Senna started grinning while shaking around her coin purse Part of the ed to Grisalde She had lost it due to a couple lost bets Roland was still surprised that the woman didn’t realize that her opponent was a professional swindler While she didn’t cheat outright, Senna would only take bets that were in her favor

“I don’t need your help, I can pay for it myself!”

Grisalde storni to raise his head Even though he was a dire wolf, the large woround Thus he re his sharp teeth

“P-put it onthe axe on the counter Grisalde nodded It was as si oaf, this isn’t a tavern…”

Senna started grabbing her sides while trying not to laugh On the other hand, Roland wasn’t sure if this was such a bad idea

“How about you work for me instead?”

“Work for you? I don’t know uard”

Today was one of the days that they ithout any protection With Roland being around they didn’t really need anyone else to stand watch besides Agni Yet a highly skilled thief would be able to grab so and still make a run for it For that reason, they needed souard?”

“Yes, I usually contact souild but since the cult incident a lot of the to stay out in the woods”

It wasn’t a bad deal for hih level tier 2 class holder There weren’t that many other adventurers that compared to her She was also someone that he somewhat trusted not to make off with the items or attack Elodia

“The store isn’t open every day, so you could still go to the dungeon to earn iven twoto drink but no alcohol”

“Hmm…”

Grisalde pondered this proposal for a moment Roland wasn’t sure if she would take it as it wouldn’t be that hard for soeon Any adventurer tea a combatant like here down there After a month or two she would probably be able to afford this weapon

‘I guess she will refuse…’

At least that is what he was thinking, for sorinning there, she nodded to agree

“Fine, I’ll be a guard now give me the weapon!”

“Wait, not so fast”

While Grisalde was trying to get to her neeapon she was stopped by the store owner

“Huh?”

“Here, sign this first”

“What is this?”

What was presented to her was a standard contract that he created himself It stated the usual terms of the deal and that she needed to work five days a week, for eight hours per day While they could go through the guild to make this transaction, they could just do it directly like this

“Um…”

“It’s a standard document, if you fail to meet the terms you’ll be subjected to the usual debuff”

“Debuff?”

Roland was a bit confused but then reh the hassle of signing work contracts They just delivered iteot paid for that, they weren’t on the clock so there was no need for then them as motivation for work

“Let me explain…”

In the shortest a The curse that she would be subjected to would place a debuff that lowered her e For so setback

“That’s about it, if you do your work nothing will happen and as you can see, this contract is just for one ets it…”

Elodia that was behind the counter whispered into his ear while looking at the large wo redder It see were sometimes too difficult for her to understand

‘It’s athat she gets taken advantage of this easily’

After a little back and forth he ned Elodia took over by explaining the working hours and her duties For the couard for the store This would ease his nerves as he was intending to go down to gain some levels

While the cultist situation wasn’t resolved, it was being handled by the City Lord His own house and shop were already equipped with the same divine boxes to check for any potential corruption What now remained was for hiolerind
