Chrysalis

Chapter 1325

Given the bustling streets and crowded storefronts, it was sometimes difficult for the two ants to move freely down Silver street. It was only thanks to the presence of their guide that they were able to travel freely and not be attacked by the many monster hunters searching for weapons and armour.

Eventually, they managed to make their way into a store and start poking around.

“What do you think?” Cobalt asked as she ran her eyes over the merchandise.

“I can tell that the materials used are rare. The mana running through the metal is very dense, and flowing smoothly, but there doesn’t seem to be anything super impressive about it?”

“Hmmm. These swords match your description. They’re extremely well made, and of good quality metals, but we’ve seen such things elsewhere. Perhaps we were expecting too much?”

[What are you thinking about, you two?]

They explained their thoughts to Irisod, and she examined the blades herself before shrugging.

[I’m hardly an expert. Let me grab a store clerk.]

[Are they a smith?]

[Perhaps?]

[If they aren’t a smith, I don’t really want to talk to them,] Smithant said flatly.

[I’ll ask.]

As it turned out, all of the staff were proficient to some degree in the smithing arts, which satisfied the fussy ant’s requirements. She asked Irisod to explain to them the best qualities of the store’s work, and he quickly caught on to what they were getting at.
