Chapter 43 by SmallestStories SmallestStories

Quick chapter, I know. Anyway, back to Noldrin !

Let's go see Dolgomi.

You entered the capital as the sun got closer and closer to the horizon, the sky's color slowly darkening as it did so. Once again, you admired the beauty of the city, as if it was the first time you ever got in it, but two things were different this time : you came back from the battle you came here for in the first place, and this time, the big groups of quester quickly broke up, as everyone was looking for either a place to rest, or to party, because celebrating your victory was still important.

But as the group started to break apart, you could see a receptionist of the Adventurer's Guild walk towards you, before saying, loud anough for everyone to hear.

"Seeing all of you like this, I guess your battle has been a success, so congratulations. As for your reward, you are free to come and claim it at the nearest Waypoint."

Simply hearing this made most of the questers quickly change their path, as they directly headed to said Waypoint to claim their reward. You wanted to head there, but Rei put an hand on your shoulder before saying.

"There is no need to rush things, if we go now, we'll likely be caught in the wave of questers, and I am sure it will take time before we'll be able to get out of it."

Her argument was reasonable, and it didn't take long before you nodded, as you replied.

"In that case, there is one dwarf I need to see."

You then started going, heading to Dolgomi's shop, even though you weren't exactly sure if he had finished forging your weapon or not, but it doesn't hurt to see, right ?

Strangely enough, Lady Kogai and Lady Melda followed you and your party as you headed to Dolgomi's shop, and when you glanced at them, they seemed uneasy, which made you concerned as you haven't ever seen them this uneasy, even in the fight you just won, but it didn't matter all that much for now, as you quickly got to the shop you wanted to visit, and entered it, looking for Dolgomi.

When you entered, you noticed three people inside of the shop, looking at the equipment sold here, and wouldn't you know it, it wasn't the first time you saw them. This was once again the party of a human, an orc and a demon that you saw twice already, as they spied on you and your party the second time. When Rei entered, she noticed them too, but like you, didn't say a word about it, as the two of youdirectly headed to the counter, waiting for Dolgomi to show up from the backroom of the shop, as you weren't even hearing him forging anything.

And wouldn't you know it, but Dolgomi got out of the backroom of the shop right in time, seeing the two of you at the counter before disappearing again in the backroom, reappearing a short while after as he carried a sword in its scabbard and... A dagger ? He then put them on the counter before saying.

"Here ya are, lad ! Right in time, I just finished ya weapons ! And because there was a bit of alloy left, I made a dagger." He said with a grin.

"Wait, you even made a dagger ? Couldn't you just keep what was left ?" You ask, surprise in your tone.

"Nah, ya alloy, ya weapon. Pleasure to work on that, mate ! Ya sword's called 'Abyss Dweller', for some reason. It name just popped like that. The dagger is a Dark Dagger. I made both using Blackwood of the Elder Woods, and there ya to keep, mate !"

After he spoke, you first grabbed the sword and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard, and it was magnificient. The leather of the handle was very soft, and you could still feel the wood under it. The pommel of the sword was made of Abyssal Alloy, like its blade, and both of them had a sceal-like pattern on them, the pattern running along the sides of the blade, before coming to a stop right where the edge started to sharpen. The same pattern was on the scabbard, which was made of dark colored leather. The dagger wasn't bearing any pattern on its blade though, you noticed as you pulled it out of its own sheath, which was made of the same material as the sword's.

The dagger had the same leather around the handle as the sword, and its pommel had very small and intricate engravings, but there was nothing more to say about the weapons, as you stored them back into their sheaths, before taking them as you asked.

"How much does it cost for this ?"

"Fifteen platinum coins, mate !" Dolgomi replied, his grin not disappearing in the slightest, but his reply even made Rei's fluffy ears droop, before you said.

"Even with our reward we can't pay..." You begin to say, thinking about a possible solution for this, solution which you found right after. "Is it possible to put this on some kind of bill or something ?"

"Completely ! I'll do it directly ! Ya name, lad ?"

"My name is Adam, and please, do it quickly before Rei starts having a mental breakdown because of the price."

As you said this, Dolgomi laughed, before writing something under his counter, eventually lifting his head back at the two of you as he finally said.

"Here, everything's good ! Enjoy ya weaponry, mate !"

Next thing you know.
