Upon seeing Agares frown, Danzel could easily imagine what Agares was thinking based on how he looked at him alone.
Because of that Danzel felt quite miserable.
`It was your granddaughter that came to me! Why are you looking at me like a criminal!?′ He wanted to yell out, but in the end, kept such thoughts to himself.
Spinning his mind to come up with an excuse, Danzel immediately came up with an idea once he looked at the panicking Shiro.
"I was discussing with her about the deal that we made. Of what kind of "item" she would be interested and such." Danzel said casually with his cold voice to make it more convincing.
He knew that mentioning the word necromancy and Shiro was bound to be a landmine that was to be avoided.
In Shiro's case, her being a 3rd-tier magic caster wasn′t just for show and her intelligence managed to pick up Danzel's lead.
"Yes! I came to ask him about "that"!" She nodded while nodding her head over the top manner.
In truth, she had no idea what exactly that item was!
Agares who looked at the two suspicious nodded his head towards Danzel.
"...I see, in that case, let′s go inside and discuss. As it′s appropriate d to talk about your abilities here outside."
"Yes...." Danzel said.
`No!!!′ is what he actually thought.
All he wanted to do was spend his time with Skull Claw and see the change that came from becoming a [Death Hound].
Now though because of Shiro, he was forced to put that matter for a later.
Walking back with the two in their room, Danzel couldn′t help but stare around him in curiosity.
If one ruled out the High Troll, Sartan, then the room of Agares and Shiro was the only one that he hadn′t visited yet.
Compared to the others, those two were the only two in the whole group that shared a room together so it was naturally bigger than his.
There were two separate futons in the corner of the floor of different sizes and a small table in the middle of the room with different books, notes, and some drawings.
Compared to his messy room where alchemic weapons were laying on the side, their room was quite clean.
'.',
`Maybe I should sort out my room later...′ Danzel thought to himself.
As for Shiro, she dashed inside the room and put the books and all paper to the side, at least she tried by carrying everything all at once, resulting in everything falling to the ground.
"Ah!"
As she went around and picked up what she dropped together with Agares, Danzel felt somewhat awkward just standing there and decided to help.
After picking some notes on what he guessed were from Velkir′s lesson, he finally came across a messy drawing.
In the drawing were several buildings with weird roofs in the background orange and red, as if a fire was happening taking place.
In the middle of the drawing was a man with a long reversed curved sword, to his side were also some hints of another character, but the drawing seemed unfinished.
"Thank you." Agares said before taking the drawing from his hand and making it disappear, Danzel guess that the drawing went into a spatial storage item just like his ring.
"Shiro, use put all your things in the ring that Velkir gave you." Agares said to Shiro who froze for a second before using her storage item.
`How the heck did she even achieve the 3rd-tier...′ Danzel thought earnestly.
After soon finishing up cleaning the table, Agares motioned Danzel to sit down.
Sitting down opposite them, Agares asked the same question as before, but to him this time around.
"What were you discussing with my granddaughter, Danzel?" Agares asked in a tone as if already criminalizing Danzel for something he didn′t do.
Danzel of course, who had plenty of time to think of what to say together with his 600 Intelligence (660 effective INT] responded accordingly.
"You see Agares, though I agreed to make some runed items for her, I noticed a certain problem with. If you aren′t aware yet, my runes are mostly carved in plated armor and various cold weapons. I also am capable of increasing the total amount of a mana crystal, but that′s about it." Danzel said while pointing towards Shiro.
"But if we are talking about cloth and leather armor, for example, her robe, then the runes that I know are limited to the lowest tier. She also doesn′t wield a staff or something the like that would need mana crystal, no? So I was wondering what should be done."
Hearing that, Agares couldn′t help but put a thoughtful look.
He knew that Danzel's concerns were to take into consideration.
Although Agares mainly did the deal with Danzel for the mana-increasing rune, it wouldn′t hurt to fully equip her granddaughter with ruined items.
"Hmm, Shiro, would you be interested in using magic with a staff?" Agares asked, making her head turn in confusion.
"A staff? But Shiro can already use magic with her hands. Do I really need one?" Shiro asked in return, bringing Agares into a difficult situation.
'ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Novel(B) in.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ꜰᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.',
All he knew was that the magic caster used staff to strengthen their magic and sometimes put spells inside the mana crystal to use for later. As a swordsman, he wasn′t too sure what magic caster used and if a staff was necessary or not.
Just like Danzel, he directed his own mana into his sword, So he wasn′t too sure what to say.
Seeing that from the side, Danzel decided to speak up.
"Though I myself ain′t that knowledgeable, I have heard that their other option for staff. I mainly heard of magic orbs and magic gauntlets to be an option for a magic caster weapon. As to what their advantages were or disadvantages, I think it′s better to ask master Velkir. If he accepts on create either of them, then you can tell him that I will carve some runes." Danzel said.
"How about it, Shiro?" Agares asked, where Shiro nodded with a smile.
"You also mentioned something about the lower-tier runes, right Danzel? Could you roughly describe how strong the lowest tier is and how it compared to that barrier rune of yours?"
Danzel of course wasn′t shy in revealing how most of the [Common] runes were not that extreme and were generally passive effects for the most part.
"Honestly, I wouldn′t recommend them. Though they are better than nothing, it′s way more efficient in changing armor to suit the runes that carve some runes that might become irrelevant." Danzel said before turning his gaze towards Shiro.
"If I ain′t wrong, she should be of the 3rd-tier. Even though magic casters are for the most part weak physically, shouldn′t she be able to wear a simple armor?" He said before turning his gaze towards Agares.
"That goes to you too, with how long your sword is, I should be able to carve some beneficial runes into it, but with your clothing, it′s the same case as Shiro."
Hearing Danzel talking about rune carving his own item, Agares was taken by surprise. Originally the deal was supposed to cover only Shiro′s items and not his own.
When he made the deal, he thought that his skills as a 4th-tier and private training that he was offering him were worthy enough for Danzel's services.
Alas, such a deal was only worth it if only Danzel goes to train with him.
After weeks of passing, Agares realized though that Danzel, who was mainly using the sword, was more interested in studying his own runes and Velkir magic than in swordsmanship.
There were only so few times when Danzel requested to fight with him, but that was about it.
So for Danzel keeping his part of the deal when he didn′t even use him for training was a pleasant surprise.
"What you saying does make sense...I would hope for Shiro to at least have that rune that creates a barrier around her. I will also ask Velkir about the orb and gauntlet, as for my case...I believe I will pass in changing my clothes, but I would be grateful if you put some simple runes on my sword." Agares said, where Danzel nodded in agreement.
One might see Danzel tempting those two in becoming a member of the plate armor group and over the generous soul for offering his services to him.
But behind that facade lies a snake that was full of hidden intentions that looked for his own benefit!
Danzel wasn′t stupid, he knew that he didn′t really use Agare's services and that what he was doing was a win for the other party.
But he was fine with that as in the end, he would be the one who would benefit the most out of it with the usages of the [Rune of Harvest]!
"If that′s the case, those are the following rules that I have in mind for your sword..." Danzel said before starting to explain a few of the runes.
Of course, the existence of the [Rune of Harvest] was kept in the dark.
