Sean’s face lit up as he replied, “I’m not sure where was that place too; it was a mage who brought me there…”

“Oh,” said Lin Li as he nodded. Since he remembered Darian had said the Guild of Magic had helped Sean prepare accommodation, he thought it should be that mage who brought Sean there, and did not inquire further.

When two of them left the Guild of Magic, the sky had already darkened. Although the streets of Alanna were still bustling with activity, most of the shops had ended their business for the day. It was not a perfect timing to buy any equipment, as most goods would be out of stock, and the shop owners would purposely sell their products at exorbitant prices.

This fact, however, did not stop Lin Li at all—a few more gold coins did not matter to him. Anyway, that was only temporary. How could he equip Sean with low-grade equipment? When the time came, he would personally create them for Sean.

In reality, Lin Li already had plans for that.

Yet, there was no need to rush. They just had to wait till tonight.

The stabilizing properties of the elements in the Eternal Adamantine would be the most appropriate material to create the best outfit for Sean…

With this mentality, Lin Li was not as picky as usually. Shortly, they found a costume stall that was still open.

“We will go into this shop, then,” said Lin Li lazily. He was so exhausted from all the training missions he had in the day that he did not feel like finding another stall.

“Welcome,” the friendly shop owner greeted them politely. He was not put off by the old and wrinkled robe Lin Li wore at all, and invited them into the stall sincerely.

Lin Li was impressed by the good att.i.tude of the stall owner.

“Mr. Mage, what do you need?”

“No, no. Not me.” Lin Li shook his head and pointed to Sean who was standing at the door, “I’m buying my friend an outfit, but I’m not sure which to get. Do you mind bringing us around to look for appropriate ones?”

“Sure, please come over here.”

The owner brought both of them in front of a shelf of weapons, and pointed to a double-edged sword that was made of refined iron. “What do you think of this sword? It was produced by the Adventurers Guild’s Marathon Forging Group. The price is just 100 gold coins.”

“It is a reasonable price indeed…” Lin Li agreed. If such double-edged sword were to be sold in Gilded Rose, it would cost at least 200 gold coins.

However, Lin Li felt that such a weapon was not suitable for Sean. Due to the lack of quenching, its sharpness was heavily affected. On top of that, as a proficient swordsman, what mattered was the weight of his weapon, and not its magical properties nor sharpness.

“We will look at others…”

“What about this?” The shop owner recommended patiently as he took out a long gun from the shelf. “This was a product manufactured by the Marathon Forging Group too. Its creator is in charge of all the weapons used by one of the Three Great Praetorian Guards—Sky Knights—as well. The price, however, is a little expensive… It would cost 500 gold coins.”

The heaviness of the weapon could be reflected in the facial expression of the shop owner, who was carrying the gun with much difficulty. Unfortunately, Sean told Lin Li in a small voice, “Mr. Felic, I don’t know how to use long guns…”

“…”

The two men toured the stall for quite a while, but nothing struck their eye. Just when Lin Li decided to randomly select any outfit for the time being, he felt a magical wave coming from one of the shelves.

“Wait…” Lin Li said as he walked towards it in curiosity. The magical elements appeared to be radiating from an outfit. That costume set was made up of a double-edged sword and a red leather armor. When Lin Li went nearer to it, he could sense fire magical element in the surroundings.

It was a dull-colored sword, and on its blade, there was a faint mark of red. If Lin Li did not remember wrongly, it meant that the blade was made of the Abyss Mithril. Among all the magical metals, a little bit of it was enough to increase the weight of weapons by many levels.

As for that red leather armor, it seemed like it was made of the skin of Fire Salamandrids.

They were the legendary descendants of the Fire Salamandrids. Being natural fire spirits of level-14, the fire Salamandrids could walk in blazing fire, bathe in bubbling scaling molten lava, and were proficient in all fire-element spells. Armors that were created from their skin not only had the ability to protect the owner from magic, but also the power to generate magical flames to retaliate against any attackers.
