”No we shouldn't do that, the armor and weapons must be used only by our men and if we sell that to others, it'll be like strengthening our potential enemies”
Arwen nodded as Amaryll stuck her tongue out to make fun of Stodemar as he quickly shook his head
”Of course we can't sell the armors made for our men, General Knight but we can whip up some crap armors for humans, dwarven crap will still be better than those high-quality armors the humans make”
”How soon can you forge a sample armor and a weapon?”
”Thibrig can forge it 'afore tha sunset tomorrow, my king”
Thibrig was the dwarf running the smithy in Everlight with his fellow dwarves and some demihumans and who crafted all the armors for Everlight troops under Dhursir and Ken's supervision
”Good, you can give Don the armor when you're done, we don't know when will the opportunity present itself at the gathering”
”Just see, me king, this will be more successful than some food shops”
Stodemar mimicked Amaryll's previous action and ridiculed her as Amaryll rolled her eyes
”We'll see, shorty”
Everyone started to laugh as the dinner passed with chatting and drinking more ale
*******************************
Don entered the throne hall after a night full of meditation to strengthen his cultivation base, where Stodemar and Dhursir had been waiting for him for quite some time.
”Your majesty, I hope this be ta your liking”
Dhursir stepped forward and presented him the customized bow of Arjuna
Dhursir looked up at Don, waiting for him to pick up the bow as Don took the bow in his hand
The bow was painted in metallic black replacing its previous golden color and there were some runes engraved on its surface to make it look nothing like the bow of Arjuna.
”Here be tha arrows, me king”
Don grabbed one arrow from Dhursir's hand as he nocked the arrow on the string and aimed at the empty wall
”Let's see”
The moment Don released the arrow, it slashed through the wind and almost a quarter of the arrow pierced into the wall as Don quickly took another arrow and fired aiming at the same place
When he released the arrow, just like the first one, it plunged into the wall just an inch away from the first one. Don didn't finish as he fired another arrow that hit the wall an inch away from the previous two arrows.
Stodemar and Dhursir stood looking at the arrow cluster with wide-opened eyes and mouths
”Me king!, I thought ye be a swordsman”
Don lowered the bow
”I am”
As he said, Don went to put the arrow on his back to realize that his current armor had no bow holsters
”Your majesty, try this one”
Don saw Stodemar retrieving something from his space ring
”I wanted this ta be a surprise, me king, I hope ye like it”
It was a black armor set that consists of robes, pants, and boots that's inspired by Don's regular black armor, the new armor had silver linings on the edges and barely noticeable runes engraved on it. The armor had detachable cape and hood and had two sheaths for Don's sword and Warhammer as well a bow holster. The beauty of the armor was when the bow would fit right into the armor so when in the holster the bow would become barely detectable.
”Me king, I made the armor using the strongest and flexible metal I could get my hands on, besides guardian Reghys was kind enough to give some of her scales to reinforce the armor ”
The Dragon scales were one of the strongest substances in the world known to man and the fact that the armor had dragon scales alone would make it extremely special and valuable.
”An' there's more, me king”
