Chapter 408 - A king should wear King tier equipment (2/2)

Randin's eyes started to light up hearing this. ”I thought you had already brought me the main meal, but now you're saying what was before was only a starter. Smithing techniques I don't know of, and a mysterious armour with mystical power. Hga hga hga.” He started to giggle to himself.

'Ray couldn't help but think the man had a strange laugh, and Ray wanted to giggle himself, 'Ga, ga, ga, ga' he thought.

”I don't regret the day I started working for you. I'll start working on the weapons and equipment for you and Jack's first. Then I will move onto this special project. I heard you would be taking part in the All Kingdom Tournament, and I wish to make you something before you set off. I'll let you know through somebody when it's ready.”

If Randin was able to figure out how the special armour worked before the war with the Shadow Plague, then Ray felt like they had a great chance of winning. The one thing the shadow had the upper hand on them over, was the special effect of the shadow. If one was infected with the shadow, it would give them a strange power boost and that included beasts.

While the Redwings army was small, but full of highly skilled knights. However, the newest additions, including those that had just entered from the nearby towns, were not at a considerable level. It would take a long time to train them to the point they wouldn't just be cannon fodder for the Shadow. The armour would skip all that and would be a great help to the army.

However, Ray was sure there had to be a catch, otherwise, why didn't Russell, Jack's father, sell the yellow equipment to others. Why only have so many men, and why not mass supply it? Either way, he would soon find out.

Outside, by the green sash training area, students' lessons had ended for the day. The lessons were no longer taught by Martha as she was busy with other things, and she would also be one of the ones who would be travelling with Ray for the All Kingdom Tournament. She stood looking out on the balcony at the small model town that the green sash knights used for training.

In her hand, was a regular bow, rather than her King Tier one. After the destruction last time, Slyvia had nagged her quite a lot, telling her not to do something like that again. Even though most of the damage was actually caused by Ray.

She continuously fired standard arrows into the red targets all over as they would appear, but for some reason, she just wasn't into it. After the beasting outing with the others, she remembered the day they had all lost Monk. They were on the search for what had escaped from underneath the Kingdom.

When she returned she had asked Sir K, if there was any news or information about the beast. Maybe then she could learn about what happened to Monk that day and why he had chosen to join the Dark Guild. However, Sir K had reported there had been no reports of dead beasts in the area or anything like it. Assuming that the beast had moved on from this land, quite possibly heading to the Shadow Plague continent or someplace else.

”Monk, I promise I will save you…” Martha had made up her mind.

That day, although the others didn't know it, Monk had met the person behind the whole Shadow Plague continent. This was what happened back then…
