    <span style="font-weight:400">"Come on, Arlo! I know you can do better than that!" Melor roared as he blocked his blow. One block was enough to cause the small half-dwarf to be sent flying. Getting back up, he dashed at the dwarf. Gabriel and the others watched him go at it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Jack, you need more oomph!" On the other side was Herrick, who did the same with Jack.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Those two showed a fire that they hadn''t shown before. Gabriel smiled, "Those two are definitely going to win against the others." For Keith and the others in S-ss, it was a grace period. It was not so much for the others since they needed to spar against a student above them to head to the next ss.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Sarah and Leona were also hard at work as they focused on their magic. Alfia and Carolyn were helping them with that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m going to head out now. Anyone want toe with?" Keith got dressed and was prepared to go out.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Me," "I''ll go as well," Scarlet and Faelyn raised their hands. And like that, the three went out.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Where are you going?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m thinking about buying some gifts for my family members." The group would be leaving in two days. He was prepared to get some gifts for the rest of his family.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, yeah. We''re going to return home." Scarlet muttered. Shepletely forgot about that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith smiled as the two started to look around. Well, the first ce he arrived at was Ironhilde. Faelyn frowned as she questioned, "Are you really going to buy your gifts here?" Are weapons really considered gifts?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. My brothers are quite interested in weapons." Eric, Derek, and Leon. Eric was quite interested in new weapons, and Derek also had the same mind. Leon had been asking for a sword for quite some time. As he entered,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yo Skar!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What do you want, you brat?" Skar responded with a low growl.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s with the attitude?" This guy sounded pissed off. He added, "Why does your nose look like that?" The dwarf''s nose was slightly crooked.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Because someone punched me in the face! Did you forget?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I said I was sorry for that," Keithpletely forgot. That punch was needed; the man had been asking for tips to make a ne for Carolyn.


    <span style="font-weight:400">And when he was on a date with the person, he knew this dwarf would blow it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Anyways, what do you want?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you have any swords with special properties? Like something with a different metal?" Keith questioned.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Special properties?" Skar thought, "Hmm, we have a sword that could change size whenever you inject mana into it."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh! Let me see."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Here." What the dwarf brought out was a regr long sword. The only thing different was that there was no hilt on the thing; it was shaped more like a knife than anything.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Try injecting mana into it," Keith nodded, and when he did so, the sword became long! His expression brightened. It''s not that heavy: despite its length, it didn''t affect the weight.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm, how much?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"8 gold coins."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith tilted his head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">That caused Skar to retort, "That''s an enchanted sword. Those things could be more expensive than a magic sword."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s the difference between the two?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"One fires magic while the other is more of an enchantment on the sword. Magic swords have a limited use while enchanted don''t."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...I see." Keith sighed as he handed the gold coins, "Also, do you have any swords for beginners?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s for my little brother. I''m considering buying a sword he can use for some time." Continuously changing his weapons would be difficult.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How old?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"5 years old."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then how about something like this? It''s an enchanted sword like the other one. If the owner injects mana into it, then the sword could harden and be sturdier than steel. It''s a good weapon for beginners." Skar took out a short sword. Holding it in his hand,


    <span style="font-weight:400">It''s lightweight, perfect for Leon. It was quite light for someone like him as he swung it around. But it was great for his younger brother. Leon could definitely use something like this until he turns 10.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"8 gold?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"7."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''ll take it!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What else do you need to buy?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I guess dual swords," Derek was a two-sword user instead of one.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then here''s this. It''s lighter than most, but it''s sharp as well. It could probably go through every bone like butter,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What are they made out of?" Even as Keith held the sword, he could feel the sharpness.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"A mixture of mithril and sun copper."


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How much?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"The same."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Okay!" There was no need to skimp out with their gifts. And like that, he had obtained three gifts instantly.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you guys need anything from here?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No," "Nope." Scarlet and Alfia shook their heads. There was really no need to get something from here.
