When Ameria came back, she brought along with her some breakfast, which consisted of bread, eggs, and sausages. Nirra also returned from her room and ate breakfast with everyone. Even striking up a few conversations with her friends.
As they were eating, the rain outside slowly lost its strength before coming to a halt. The dark, gloomy weather was replaced by beautiful sunlight and a clear sky, apart from a few scattered clouds. After they finished breakfast. They all went to their rooms. Mofu and Ameria opted to stay inside to rest after the night before.
Stepping into the street below were Nirra and Ellie. Of course, adventurers never leave unarmed. Ellie kept a hidden dagger to herself while she held her sword sheathed in her hands. While Nirra had her revolver holstered on her hip. She trusted Mofu, knowing that he could defend her weapons if someone ever tried to steal them.
The scenery was oddly comforting; numerous puddles had formed from the rain shower earlier, which reflected the blue skies above them. Buildings were covered in water, some even dripping from the roofs and onto the ground. When they took a left on a corner, Nirra opted to start up a conversation.
"So what kind of store are we looking for?" Nirra asked as they walked side by side with each other.
"Well, first we're going to visit that forge you keep visiting so I can do some maintenance on this thing, especially after last night." She gestures to her sword. "After that, I think we should hit the clothes store for some underwear. Mine is getting tight around the chest," Ellie said.
"Now that you mentioned it, my bra is getting rather tight around my chest as well," Nirra said, hooking the top of her shirt with her hand before she pulled it to relieve some pressure on her bossom. Ellie looked at her chest with envy plastered in her eyes.
"Y-yeah, let's just go finish this and probably get some lunch if we take some time," Ellie said while blushing; she also looked away whilst talking.
Nirra just shrugged her shoulders. Eventually the two reached the shopping district, specifically the plaza where they stayed the day they arrived in the city.
"I can't see that building you talked about." Ellie searched along the buildings on the circumference of the plaza in front of her.
"Uhm, because it's behind us?" Nirra corrected while she pointed at the building behind her with a thumb.
"Oh…" Ellie said, embarrassed.
Nirra just gave off a little giggle before she and Ellie walked up to the building called The Dragon's Breath Forge.
When they entered, Ellie just heard the ring of a bell. She noticed that there was a skinny guy in the reception area reading his book, and he paid little attention to the two girls in front of him.
Nirra cleared her throat before calling out to the guy. "Derek"
The man was startled and almost fell from his seat. When he peeked up from the countertop, he sighed in relief as he was only greeted by Nirra's appearance.
"H-hey Nirra, sorry I didn't notice ya. W-what can I do for you?" He sheepishly said.
"My twin sister here wants to do some general maintenance on her sword; is there a station available? The regular one," she said.
"S-station s-six seems to be clear. Just make her register here on this logbook. He then ducked down below the countertop and retrieved a rather thick logbook. He panted like a person resting after running for a while afterwards.
"Phew, this thing is heavy," he said, wiping the sweat off of his eye brows. "Y-you can set your time in here." he said, pointing to a clear spot on the page. "I-It costs seven s-silver per hour." He added.
Ellie stepped in front of Nirra as she listed her name and the time she went inside. After that, she brought out her pouch of money and paid for 14 silver coins, which she handed over to Derek, who took them and placed them inside a drawer under the countertop.
While Ellie was writing on the log book, Nirra noticed that there wasn't any noise coming from the room behind the reception area.
"Where's your dad?" Nirra asked.
"H-hes out buying some more ingots to use in the VIP forge. H-he found some flimsy metal pieces in the trash bin in one of the rooms and figured it'd be a good way to save on money. So he melted them down to ingots," he explained.
Nirra thought the metal shavings she had made from making her shotgun would be noticed, but apparently the smith didn't pay any more heed to them and used the shavings as a way to save up on money used on buying ingots.
"Okay, done, Ellie said as she stood back up straight and slid the logbook back at Derek. The flimsy man barely stopped it.
"S-station six is the one at the corner. On the back side," he said as he pointed to the location before leaning back on his chair and continuing to read his book.
The twins nodded in his direction before they arrived at the station. Unlike the VIP stations that were downstairs, the regular stations were visible to everyone working on other stations as well as the people outside. In front of them was a line of different smithing applications. The first one was the furnace, which was leaning against the wall adjacent to them. The next one is a grind stone that should help Ellie sharpen her blade when needed, and next to that is a basket full of only three kinds of metals in their ingot forms. Copper, iron, and steel. In front of them is a small, singular anvil. The different tools needed are hung on the wall, and a crafting bench is set up on the southern wall.
"This isn't like dad's set up," Ellie said as she grabbed the leather apron that was hanging on the wall and wore it. "But it'll do," she continued as she picked up a forging hammer.
