Chapter 98 - Strange Armour
But before he could even finish speaking, Rebecca opened the window and revealed a token.
The token seemed to be crafted out of an expensive piece of metal and in the centre of the badge was a tower with a giant eastern dragon coiling and twisting around the whole structure.
Seeing the token the guard was left stunned
"Hid...Hidden Dragon Academy!"
"So..sorry for my insolence Ma'am. forgive me for not recognising your distinguished self, please go inside. You can ignore the line and go straight in!"
After the guard finished speaking Rebecca simply waved him away and instructed the convoy to start moving on.
Watching on as the carriage started to pass through the city gates, Dante was puzzled and could help to ask
"Rebecca, what just happened here?"
"Are you forgetting who I am Dante?
I'm a member of the Hidden Dragon Academy! Just this fact alone puts me in the top one percent of people in the Vaenam kingdom. All I did was use a bit of that power to let us enter in without having to wait at that line."
As Rebecca said this a proud smile crept onto her face showing how proud she was of her achievements.
Dante could only watch on helplessly as Rebecca continued to shamelessly boast about her talent
...
And like that the convoy started moving into the capital city and carried on doing so until only after a few minutes, the convoy stopped at a large inn.
soon all of the Kinsman Clan disciples had gotten down from their carriages and gathered around in front of the inn.
Feeling the carriage stop, Grand Patriarch Jarred Also decided that they should
"Well, we finally made it to the capital!
We managed to arrive in the city a little early so you guys have some time to explore the capital before the entrance tests start
I've got a few old friends that I need to catch up with so just go to the entrance tests without me, don't worry, you'll meet me there once the tests start.
anyway, I'll see you guys later?"
as Jarred finished speaking his figure flickered disappearing from the scene.
As Dante watched He could feel a hand on his shoulder, Turning around he looked to see Rebecca smiling as she asked
"how about I show you around the city? it's the best way to the real experience!"
hearing Rebecca's statement Dante didn't hesitate as he replied
"Sure, I'm down!"
And with that, Rebecca and Dante hopped in the carriage headed out to explore the city.
...
A few hours had passed since Dante and Rebecca had started exploring the city
They had tried a few stores and even eaten at a luxurious restaurant, but despite all the shopping and searching Dante never really found anything that interested him
right now Dante and Rebecca were riding around in a carriage going from store to store in hopes of finding something interesting.
Dante was sat bored in the carriage staring into the distance.
Rebecca seemed to notice Dante absentmindedly staring into the sky and spoke
"Dante, I know you're bored but I know the next store we're going to is a place you'll definitely like."
Hearing this Dante's interest was stirred and he quickly replied
"Oh really? Where are we going then."
Hearing Dante's question a beautiful smile broke out on Rebecca's face
"We are heading to one of the best weapon stores in The whole of the Capital city!"
Eventually, The carriage stopped in front of a luxurious store with two giant fully armed guards stood motionlessly in front of it.
"We are finally here!"
Rebecca and Dante got off the carriage and entered into the store.
AS soon as they stepped foot inside, they were instantly greeted with the sight of a magnificent marble interior while glass cases of all sorts of weapons and armour sets were visible across the room.
Dante was slightly awed at the luxuriousness on display here, just the showcase weapons were much better than anything that could ever be sold at the Kinsman Clan store.
Maybe some lucky elders could get some clan treasures that could possibly rival these weapons but even Dante knew that there was no chance that there were more than 5 such weapons in the Kinsman Clan.
Sensing Dante's surprise Rebecca spoke
"Don't be too shocked this is just a small section of the store!"
"small section?"
Dante could barely believe what he was hearing, just this small section was better than all the stores in the entire of brightsteel city combined!
"You know what? It'll be better if you experience it for yourself, You have enough money right?" Asked Rebecca
In response Dante didn't even speak, he just showed his space pouch.
nodding in approval Rebecca continued
"Well since you have enough money to explore for yourself, buy anything you want!"
Getting Rebecca's approval, Dante didn't hesitate any longer and began to wander around deeper into the store.
Walking past, Dante saw many flashy weapons.
He saw a pair of white gauntlets that flashed in a golden glow. He even saw some armour that had streaks of electricity rushing across it.
Yet despite all this, Dante didn't feel any strong attraction to any of the products here.
But just as Dante was walking past this section, his attention was suddenly grabbed by a intricate chestplate.
The chestplate was a dazzling light blue colour and in the middle of its chest was a deep blue Pearl that seemed to radiate an icy energy.
As soon as Dante saw that chest piece his eyes flashed with a silver gleam but despite all this Dante wasn't even the one with the strongest reaction to this piece of armour.
No, that award would have to go his Moonlight Sword!
As soon as Dante came within range of the chest piece, his Moonlight Sword seemed to go berserk.
If it wasn't for Dante calming it down, he was almost a hundred percent certain that the sword would have burst out his space pouch!
Dante took a few steps closer to carefully inspect this strange piece of armour in front of him.
"Good piece of work isn't it."
Whilst Dante was assessing the armour piece of armour, a man crept up beside him and started speaking
"You see that pearl in the centre of the chest piece? Well, that pearl is actually a rare treasure only formed in magical sea clam after absorbing light from the for almost 100 years!
This magical Pearl when infused into a set of armour grants mystical properties to the piece!"
