Chapter 101 - I Was Accepted (2/2)
“…Are you the F-Ranker who’s trying to buy monster armor?”
“Yeah. For this Proud Wolf and my slimes.”
I said as I pointed at the Proud Wolf.
The master looked at him and then started shouting at the clerk.
“You! You bloody idiot!”
“Hey, stop kicking me.”
“You should know better! Why the hell were you trying to get rid of this guy! He’s the strongest person to ever come to my store! Just look at this Proud Wolf! It’s so strong!”
…Did he get all that from a glance?
Perhaps working as a craftsman for so long gave you the ability to see such things.
Well, surely he’s exaggerating about the part where he said I was the strongest Adventurer to ever visit.
And the Proud Wolf wasn’t that strong either.
“But, he said that he’s F-Rank…”
“It’s because you only see people as their rank, that you are still a novice! …I’ll take care of this from here. Get out!”
So saying, Master Gaiger drove the clerk out of the store.
And then he pointed at the slimes and Proud Wolf and asked me,
“So, you want monster armor for these guys?”
“Yeah. And I have the money to pay for it.”
The most expensive piece I had seen in the store was 500,000 cicols.
And I had over 6 million on me.
So while things were expensive here, I could still afford them.
“Don’t worry about money. A person of your ability will be able to make as much as he wants. You could even pay me later. …But what I want to know now, is the direction.”
“Direction?’
“What features do you put the most weight in? Most Adventurers care about attack power… But your monsters don’t really look like the attacking type.”
I see.
Indeed, my battle style didn’t really require the monsters to have much attack power.
That being said, it wasn’t like I wanted more defense power either.
What I did want was…
“What about scouting ability and movement speed?”
“…That’s rather unusual. It won’t help them much in combat. Are you sure about this?”
“Yeah. My slimes have a very special way of fighting.”
Master Gaiger heard this and thought about it.
He was now looking at the Proud Wolf.
—And then after some time, he opened his mouth.
“They’re so strong that I don’t think my current materials will work. And it would be quite pointless if the armor broke during a fight.”
