    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hah!" Keith sighed deeply as he looked at the sky. He was lying face up. His body was covered in sweat from head to toe.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How do you feel?" Cadmus came from the entrance. Keith''s smile tinged with determination, "I feel I''m prepared enough to survive almost everything."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I think you''re overprepared." Cadmus shook his head. Keith''s words were an understatement in the making. Thesest few days had been Keith training like a madman. He did everything he could to improve his abilities.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Better to be over-prepared than under." Being over-prepared just meant you worked more than usual. However, it would have been a pain if he had been underprepared.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Fine. But you should go take a break. Working out for so long doesn''t do a body good." He couldn''t enter the dungeon with a weary body. With how long he trained, it would be difficult.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I will take a restter. Also, I need to pack supplies for the exploration as well." Titus said they should pack a week''s worth of supplies. I need to get that as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see. Good luck then." Cadmus said nothing more as he walked away. He knew Keith was going to work out even more.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Back to work!" Keith got up from the ground, his movements swift and purposeful. He couldn''t stop himself now. After he did all of that, Keith went to collect some supplies. The first ce he headed to was Iron Hilde,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Skar, are you there?" Keith called out.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m here, Kid." Skar came out from the back. Keith questioned, "Do you have the thing I asked before?" There was no banter between the two. Keith was serious about this.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Of course. Who do you think I am?" Skar grinned as he brought him to the back. Keith''s eyes locked onto one ce. There was armor being disyed in the center.


    <span style="font-weight:400">There was nothing shy about the armor. But that was what Keith wanted. It was only for protection and nothing more.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What is it made out of?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I used the hides of steel lizards to make it. It''s more durable than any old iron, and it''s flexible as well. So you can move around without thinking about it getting in your way." After Keith left the guild, he came here to ask them for some things.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I wasn''t going to ask for armor," Keith muttered. He was nning to go with the regr armor. But that caused Skar to scoff at him,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How stupid are you? You''re going in there with the most basic gear ever!" Keith''s gear was made from the weakest iron ever.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"If it isn''t broken, it''s workable." Keith had been using the same thing for thest few months. It worked well with him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tsk," Skar sucked his teeth before sighing, "Try it on and tell me if you need any alterations."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood." Keith wore the armor. The first thought that came to his mind was,


    <span style="font-weight:400">Light. It felt light from something that was made out of steel. Keith turned to Skar, "Is it supposed to be light?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. The hide from a steel lizard is more durable than steel, but it''s also half its weight. It''s a popr material to use to make armor."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Keith started moving his body around, throwing punches and kicks along the way.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Anything wrong with it?" "The leg part is a little tight on my thigh." He could raise it to the right angle.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gotcha." Skar nodded as he started to alter it. While he did, "Also, check out the sword on the rack as well."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Huh? You made another one?" Staring at it, Keith realized the second sword was made from the same material as the one Skar gave him before.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I could only make a long sword and a short one." Skar sighed. He wanted to make two long swords. However,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I think it would be perfect for you."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm," Keith picked it up and took out the long sword. The longer one was a meter longer. Waving the short sword around,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s good." It was lighter than the long one, so he could swing it faster.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then use it. Going to an unexplored dungeon by yourself is going to be difficult. And take the armor; it''s good to go."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thanks." Keith ced the armor into his belt.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Save it. Juste back alive and bring some material if you find any."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gotcha." Keithughed. He didn''t stay any longer as he needed to buy some other supplies before the end of the day.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"To think he would be going on an expedition." The other dwarves muttered once Keith left. It was surprising since Keith hadn''t been here for a year!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He has the skills." "But it''s going to be difficult for him."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you guys only know how to talk?! Get back to work!" Skar scowled as he added, "That kid is going toe back alive even if everyone tries to smite him down!" That was something he knew for sure!
