　Thor, on the other hand, responded with a disinterested look on his face.

　Thor shook his head inwardly at the thought of himself with bracelets and hair ornaments.

　However, considering the efficacy of the jewel, it would be a shame to keep it away just because it did not suit him.

　If we can reduce such a danger, even a little, it is a trivial matter to be particular about the appearance.

"At least it would be better if they didn't decorate it."

"In that case, you could attach it to the armor itself, Master Thor.

"Is that so?　Hmmm, that might be just the thing. Actually, I'm in the process of getting a new suit of armor.

　Sola looks disappointed, but when the coachman opens the door, she lifts her nose cutely in surprise.

"What's that?　What's that smell?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Really?

"Thank you for always taking care of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you for everything.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I think it would be better if you visited alone, Mr. Toll.

　Apparently, it is difficult for female customers to enter the restaurant.

　Thor nodded his head, said goodbye to Enna, and got into the carriage.

　It takes less than ten minutes to reach the alley where the armor shop is located.

Grandpa, are you there?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, that's because it's my store. You can't start without me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, Miss and Mr. Beppin. You're still as beautiful as ever.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, thank you very much."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After the greetings are over, Thor calls out to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, buddy. How's that thing you asked for?　Also, there's someone I'd like to introduce you to."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You got another wife?　Yeah, that's Hila. Long time no see.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You look well, Mr. Ramow."

　The old craftsman glared at the silversmith, but said nothing more and pointed behind him with a raised thumb.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Look here, look here! Here's what you ordered."

　There it was, the crimson scaled armor on the wooden doll's torso.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The basic part of the armor was lined with small scales, but the chest and shoulders were covered with a single large scale that loomed over the body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The joints between the scales were smooth and unnatural, as if they had grown in such a way from the beginning.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor and the others are taken aback by the workmanship, which easily surpasses their imagination.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The shopkeeper was so pleased with their reaction that he rubbed the tip of his nose with the tip of his thumb and continued to speak.

"I had a hard time with this one. But it's good, isn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're so black and white, Grandpa."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, that's great!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's a fine piece of work. I'm amazed."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hila, who had been watching carefully, notices a peculiar protrusion on the scales and turns back to Thor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"............ What if this is?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, the scales of that thing."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was an armor made of the leather of a swarming fauna of lake dragons previously killed by Thor and his men.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Most of it had been sold to the Bossalian Adventurers' Bureau, but some of the finer scales had been left behind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　These pieces of armor were then joined together one by one by hand to make this scale armor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Moreover, the wooden body of the armor was made to the exact measurements of Thor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you, father. You exceeded my expectations.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Of course. A craftsman must exceed the customer's request.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So, I hate to tell you this, but ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, if you call a silversmith, he's most likely going to want to decorate it in a fancy way."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, it's not just decoration, Mr. Ramow."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hila, who has just stepped forward as if it were her job, starts to talk about the efficacy of the jewel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At first, the owner listened with a frown, but after hearing her explanation, he was immediately convinced.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She nodded her head several times and then patted Thor on the shoulder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, then, tell them that quickly! I thought you'd changed since you hung up your stupidly colored adventurer's card on the wall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm sorry, mister. Don't worry, I'm not going to change that much."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay, I agreed with you about the processing. ....... I'm not sure I can do that here."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The silversmith who owns a store in Bossaria looks thoughtful.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, I would like to bring it back to my workshop if possible. However, I don't know much about scaled armor, so it would be a difficult task without your advice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmmm ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ramow, with his hand on his chin, was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth gravely.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"All right, I'll leave the finishing touches to him. He's right there in Bossalia."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Who is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh, I'm proud of my number one apprentice."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The old craftsman smiled as he said this, his eyes narrowed.
