At the house we go to the dinning room eat dinner go to bed.
The next day I wake up and go down stairs to eat breakfast.
"Today you'll be on your own to see the town after going to the mages guild and seeing your starting rank."
"Got it."
It seems that I'm on my own after I make it to the mages guild with Freya.
I finish eating and go to ready the carriage and get in with Freya and head to the mages guild.
I go to the counter.
"I'd like my updated rank from the testing from yesterday."
"Yes, name."
"Yuuki."
"Yes... A 99.9% SCORE! Ahh! Sorry, your rank in the mages guild is gold rank"
She went and notified the entire guild my score. Now look everyone is looking here at me.
"Thank you."
I quickly duck and dive out of the guild and make my way to west side of the city which is the merchant district.
I put up my hood and walk out to main street.
[Yuuki you look like a criminal]
"Please don't you'll jinx us."
[Fine, fine, Ooh look at the jeweler there it has nice things...or that cloth seems nice...blah blah]
Tyrhrung is enjoying herself but I'm not. I got some money given to me for the payment of the dungeon capture and saving Cecily, but nothing here catches my attention. It is all appearance and no functionality.
"Tyrhrung I'm done looking at this I going to check some less popular stores and those away from main street."
[Eh? But why? everything is so pretty.]
"Yeah, but isn't special. All the jewelry is made of silver it is well made but it isn't a magic tool. the swords are made of magic metal but they are casted. The armor is well made with many techniques but they prioritize in production speed.
So I'm going to use that I learned in the capital of Riaz. If you look in the back of merchant districts you will find tons of scum, but you will sometimes find gold."
I leave the main road and go into the back allies
[Eww it stinks back here and most of the stuff is ugly.]
"Yup just give it...time... found it. Look at the store here."
I enter inside a store that has no decoration and the weapons have no flair.
...But the swords are perfect the material is perfectly uniform. Each sword has a different gimmick...some better then others.
I take a look around looking for material to look for a material to upgrade Tyrhrung through the alchemy spell {Weapon Sacrifice Revival} combed with {Fusion} to have a sword take some of the properties of another.
It didn't take long for a girl came out from the back "Don't just dilly dally, purchase something or leave."
Gut feeling tells me this is the person who made all this. I decided to show off a bit and pulled one of the gimmicks swords off her shelf that will shoot the blade and have it explode and comes with a spell to create new blades on its own from earth magic.
"This sword is well done but the gimmick could be simplified by changing the magic stored in the gem in the pommel to an altered version of {earth spear} instead of a {earth control}, and {harden} spell."
"But won't that cause a problem with the durability or mana cost?"
"No not if you set it up to be altered by image of the user and it also means that someone who didn't understand it enough couldn't use it. If that was the case you could just sell the original but I doubt the craftsman in you would let you sell it to some one who couldn't bring out it's full power."
[Yuuki don't think that the mind games you are playing are going to work.]
"True to understand the true meaning of making tools is to see someone use them to their fullest potential. Like a chef with a knife, or an adventurer with a weapon that has a weird out of this world gimmick!"
She says it with some weird aura like a fanatic coming from her. It seems that this person like anything that isn't what a normal weapon should be. We should get along.
"So what are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for a multi-layered sword with enhancements to maximize performance with a gimmick for..."
After finishing explaining what I am looking for she says that she will have to make it and some of the processes for the metal and monster materials seems interesting so she'll test some things out then get to me and tell me approximate cost for a commission since she doesn't have what I need.
I leave the store because she seems to be roaring to go.
"Ahh, by the way what is your name?"
"You're right I forgot to tell you. It's Corona."
[That was boring.] Tyr said as she rolled her eyes
It is late so I go home and report my adventure to everyone, and they seemed interested in Corona.
