Volume 8 Chapter 28: Holy Maiden And Fallen Sakura

"Yo, Skar!" Keith waved his hand as he entered the workshop. When he did, the dwarf looked at him strangely, "Kid, you're not dead?"

Keith froze, "How in the world am I dead?!" I didn't go to the dungeon! 

"You haven't come here for quite some time now. I assumed a monster gutted you in the dungeon."  

"Oh, please. I'm not that weak." Keith rolled his eyes. How could he be defeated? 

"Anyways, do you have thoughts about opening the cart?"

"Yeah!" 

"We miss your food!"

"We've been eating your bread!" Other dwarves started to chime in as well. Keith's cart hadn't been open for so long, and it was quite the hit to the dwarves. Well, they had the bakery, which was a great substitute. But it was different with Keith. 

That caused Skar to shake his head, "Shut it, you guys."

"I won't be opening the cart any time soon. I have midterms," Going to the Rustchil duchy and then returning to the midterms. That was something he didn't account for. 

"How long are we going to be missing it?"

"Ahh, probably another two weeks?" He wasn't really sure about this. 

"Wahhh!" The dwarves started to shout in horror. 

"Anyways, show me your heavy iron weapons,"

"Huh? You're not going to use a sword?" Skar frowned. Keith shook his head, "Mmhmm. I will be changing into a larger weapon; I need to use something heavy with a large shield."

"I see; then you should pick something over there." Skar pointed at the rack on the side, filled with hammers and axes. 

"Thanks,"

"Wait a moment, do you even know how to pick one?"

"Nope!"

"Don't sound proud, Idiot. If you weren't a regular, you would have been taken advantage of," Skar sighed as he explained, "The important thing with choosing a heavy weapon is the ability to have control over it. It can't be too heavy or too light. Power is secondary when selecting a heavy weapon."

"I see." Too heavy would make it difficult to handle, while too light would defeat the purpose of having a heavy weapon.

"Given that you could swing our axe and hammer around, you could probably lift something like this." Skar handed Keith an axe. It was pretty large and wide. 

"Hmm," Swinging the axe around, Keith could feel the solid heft the thing had. Yet, it was easy on the hand as well. He could easily swing this around. As Keith stared at it, "How much?"

"5 silver coins."

"I'll take it."

"Are you going to the dungeon to break it in?" Those eyes said it all. 

"Of course!" Getting a new weapon meant he had to break it in at the dungeon. He would need to get used to it. What better way to do so than at the dungeon? 

"Good luck out there." 

Keith nodded, "Thanks!" He grinned as he headed to the adventurers guild. 

"Madison!" Keith called out to the girl. 

"Keith, you've returned." Madison had a bright smile as she stared; it had been a while since she had seen him. But then she noticed the large weapon on his back.

"Did you buy a new weapon?"

"Mmhmm." Keith nodded, "I'm thinking about testing it out in a dungeon."

"I see." Madison nodded, "Then let me find a small dungeon for you. Would a C-rank be enough?"

"That's-"

"Hold it!" Keith turned his head and saw two familiar faces. It was none other than Angelica and Sakura.

"Wait a moment, the two of you are adventurers?"

"What? It's none other than Holy Maiden and Fallen Sakura." One adventurer blurted. 

"Oh my goodness! To think I could see the two of them here!"

"This is such a rare occurrence!" 

"Say what?" Holy maiden and fallen Sakura?

"…" Angelica and Sakura looked away from one another.

They're talking about them. That was something Keith knew for sure. 

"Keith, the two are A-rank adventurers," Madison whispered. That clueless face said it all! 

"Say what?" They were one rank above me? They were on the same level as Morgan and Galven. But it did make sense; these two were his seniors! 

"Why are the two of you here?" 

"We were stopping by," Angelica grinned. 

But that only caused Keith to stare at Sakura instead. She coughed, "Indeed. We only saw you at the shop and didn't follow you." They saw Keith with a giant axe tied behind his back, walking around with a chipper look. 

"...I see." Keith shook his head. Of course, that happened. 

"We're going to join you on your adventure," Angelica then got close to Keith, "Or do you not want us to be there?"

"No, it's great!" Keith sighed. He couldn't say no, not unless he wanted to die. Turning to Madison, "Madison, can I get a higher rank dungeon?" Since the two were A-rank, then C-rank wouldn't cut it.

'Make it A!" Angelica grinned.

"…Are you sure? Keith is still B-rank."

"We can watch over him. And we're not going to go far into it." Sakura had no plans for that.

"Understood. Then you guys can go."

"Let's go!" Angelica grabbed his hand and quickly headed out of the guild hall. And all the adventurers couldn't help but grit their teeth. This lucky dog! 

I don't want to die! Keith didn't know whether to laugh or cry in this situation. It was going to be hell for him when he returned to the guild.
