Chapter 5: Defence Specialized and First Intermingling

I also came today huh

With this, its the third day of consecutive login. Although saying that it was for playing with Risa, but she got hooked to the hilt.

The feeling of success at the time she gained a skill, and the feeling of success of increasing defense powers made her addicted, and before she noticed she turned on the hardware.

And Risa at the time, she was told by her parents to study so she couldnt play.

FufufuIll just enjoy by myself you know

Just like that, Kaede was about to walk, but she had an idea when she looked around.

IIm still on beginners equipment!

Shield that has no decoration at all and very weak-looking short sword

that it was it. When she looked around, there are high-level players here and there, and those people are wearing good equipments with decorations.

*KyoroKyoro* she looked around for those kind of people for a while, and saw a man who had equipped a cool large shield.

*ToteTote* Kaede approached that man and called out to him.

Uhmwhere should I go to get that kind of cool shield?

n? eh? m-me?

The man was surprised because he was suddenly had been called out to.

Yes! That large shield, its cool right!

Y-Yeah. Well, thanksthis is, an order-made you know. You can pay money to a non-combat class user and make it for you

MumumuI see

Let me thinkyou want me to introduce someone? As the kinship as same large shield user

!! Please do!

Well then, come with me

There exists the possibility of this being a fraud, but Kaede was only thinking about the large shield right now, so she wasnt able to think about that at all.

It was lucky for Kaede that this man was really only being a friendly man.

Because.

No wayto think she will talk to meI should write this on the bulletin boards later

Right, this man was the Nameless Large Shield User from some bulletin board.

After walking for a while, they entered one store.

Inside, a woman was working ahead of the counter.

Ara, welcome, Crom What happened? The maintenance of the shield is still early though?

Ahh, I just saw a new large shield user soI took her impulsively

And from behind of Crom who said that, Kaede shows her appearance.

Ara, what a cute girlCrom, did you bring this girl with you impulsively? Should I report this to the police?

Saying that, the store owner woman emerges a blue panel in mid-air.

W-Wait a minute! That, what can I say, its just an analogy!!

FufuI know. Just joking

Hathats too bad for the heart so stop that

Crom said that, *Ho* and let out a sigh.

You also, you shouldnt come with a suspicious person like that you know?

AuI understand

Im not suspicious!?

Fufu, well, chatting is enough with this, then, whats the real talk?

This girl was saying that she wanted a cool large shield, so I thought I should just let you see her face

I see now. My name is Izu. Like you can see, a non-combat class, and within that, I specialize on blacksmithing. I can also create something like a potion though

Heyoure amazing desu ne! Ah, uhm, I am called Maple!

It was her first intermingling inside the game, so although Kaede was nervous, she was able to say her name without biting her tongue.

Maple-chan huh. Why did you choose the large shield?

UhmmI dont like painful things, so I thought Id increase my defense powers desu

nI see, I see. Then VIT specialized equipments would be goodbutbudget, you dont have right

Kaede checks her budget. Because she hadnt bought anything so her money was still 3000G, the default money.

W-Would three thousand gold be enough?

Kaede asked to be sure.

Fufuits not enough with that. At least around one million gold is needed

To Kaede right now, it was a dizzying amount.

Ugugubeing fashionable will be postponed for a while huh

There is also the way of entering dungeons you know? There are a lot of treasures in dungeons. Also as a way of collecting money, you can go for once you know? Well, I dont know if there is a powerful large shield though

After that, she registered friends with Crom and Izu, to be able to contact them anytime.

To the friendly two, *Pecori* she bowed her head and left the store.

Kaede for the meantime, decided two things, to collect money and go to the dungeon.

I want a cool equipment!
