Chapter 177 Strongest Sage, Takes Armor Off

An hour after we took on the quest.

We've gathered near the gate, ready to depart to Testra Prairie.

But one problem occurred here.

"...What are you wearing."

I muttered so when I took a look at the examiner who came last.

He's wearing heavy iron armor.

"Do ya even have to ask... They're armor."

"No, that's gonna have the opposite effect... I think you'd better off not wearing them."

You could indeed gain considerable defensive power if you have armor reinforced with magic metal and the like.

But the ones this examiner is wearing are just plain iron armor.

He's not getting more protection with these.

On the contrary, he'd be an easy target due to the reduced mobility, it'd have the opposite effect.

And most

importantly, thanks to the clank clank sounds these armor produce when he walks, we'll be immediately get found by the monsters.

"Where we're heading off to is a place that has claimed many casualties. I can't possibly survive with some half-assed equipment."

Aah, the type that thinks more defense means it's safer huh.

There's absolutely no point in poorly put together armor in a situation where high ranking parties found themselves wiped out.... but it's gonna be hard to convince him.

Guess I should suggest stronger and lighter equipment for this guy.

"Aa... Ruli, make some random armor reinforcement magic tool. Make it a type that can be attached to existing clothes."

"Erm... Like this?"

Ruli immediately got what I was trying to do.

After pondering for a few seconds, Ruli carved a magic circle on the

the magic stone in her palm.

The magic circle she carved was more nicely made than I expected.

I see, Ruli can do this level of magic circles herself already.

"I did it!"

"Ah yeah. Well done."
