In Roran town, there were guards everywhere and even the residents of the town seemed to be alert.

Arthur looked around and saw several guards staring at him. But they seemingly recognized him and lowered their eyes.

'Something certainly happened…' Arthur realized as the atmosphere of the town felt like it had been threatened. 'I'll need to check in with the captain.'

But before he did that, Arthur knew he needed to get the armor. He didn't wish for a conflict to start before he was ready.

He hurried towards the shop and saw that it was open. Though the Armorer wasn't sitting outside at his workshop like usual.

"Is he inside?" Arthur wondered and entered the shop.

There he finally spotted the armorer who was busy working on some armor.

"Hey," Arthur called out to the man who finally noticed him.

"You're finally here. Come take your armor, I have a lot of work to do still." The armorer said in a hurried tone.

"What's happening in the town?" Arthur questioned.

"You don't know? There was an attack." The armorer answered.

"An attack?!" Arthur narrowed his eyes. "From the bandits?"

"Who else would dare to attack? Of course its the bandits." The Armorer replied. "Though this time they really exceeded the limits." He said, gritting his teeth.

"Didn't the bandits fear the guard captain? As well as the Adventurers guild to try something like this?" Arthur questioned finding that there was something missing.

"That is normally the case. But these bandits seemed to be utterly insane." The Armorer replied. "They fought without a care for their lives and only aimed to kill as many people as they could." He revealed. 

"They have been killed now though, haven't they?" Arthur asked, sensing some clues.

"Of course. The Guard Captain as well as the guild master along with other guards stopped them. But not before they managed to harm and even kill a few people. They did manage to injure a lot of guards though." The Armorer explained while he opened a large cupboard.



"Just how many bandits were there?" Arthur wondered, as it wasn't exactly easy to attack a town with full security.

"I don't know. You'll have to ask the guards. I only found out what the chaos was about when the guards dropped off their armors to fix." The Armorer said before revealing turning to Arthur. "Here, take it." He pointed to the armor that was kept on an armor stand inside the cupboard.

Arthur paused for a moment and looked at the red scaled armor.

"It is finished. Try it on." The man prodded Arthur on.

Of course, Arthur wasn't one to wait for a new piece of equipment and immediately tried it on.

At the same time he also used Dragon's Insight, wanting to know just how well had the Armour turned out to be.

~DING~

The chest piece looked rather thick and Arthur could tell that it had been padded to add extra defense. The gauntlets and boots were not as thick, but the toughness of the scales rendered their defense to be high still.

Then there was the helmet which covered the entirely of the head leaving only a single horizontal slot for eyes and a few slits for the the mouth.

Looking at the stats and appearance of the Armour set Arthur was pleased. 

"Its even better than I thought." Arthur couldn't help but say.

He had seen the Armor that had been made from the pelt of the Ember Bellow lizard before, but it wasn't this good.

'Not only are the defense stats of each piece higher than the original, it even comes with an extra set bonus!' Arthur thought.

The Flame Resistance Bonus was something he was already aware about, but the second set option of added Dexterity was rather good.

"Of course!" The Armorer said proudly. "This is definitely one of the best armor sets I've made in the recent years." 

Arthur finished putting it on by now and tried moving around.

"It doesn't feel stiff at all."Arthur tried moving around.

"The cheek pouches were used in the joints, so it'll still give you the flexibility while providing good defense." The Armorer replied before giving Arthur two more items. "And here is the other armor pieces you asked to repair."

"Thank you," Arthur took them from the man and stored them in the bag. "I should get going then."

"Be careful out there. We don't know if there are more bandits lurking somewhere." The Armorer warned before Arthur left.

Having gotten the Armour, Arthur quickly made his way to the Guard Captain's office. Along the way he also observed the look of the town and saw that some damage was present in the main street.

Though it was limited.

'If they managed to come this far, there should have been tens of them. Otherwise the guards would have managed to stop them right at the entrance.' Arthur assessed the condition.

"Halt!" and when Arthur was in front of the building, he was stopped by the guards.

"It's me, Arzhur." Arthur spoke while removing his helmet.

"Seems like you got a new armor… good. Go on in, the Guard Captain told us that you would be coming eventually." The guards permitted him inside.

Arthur walked straight to the office where he saw Fredrick along with two more people.

One of them was none other than the Alchemist Lugan, and the second was the Guild Master Caleb.
