After successfully purchasing an armor set for 600 silver coins, Shye still had 600 silver coins left to purchase a greatsword.
He slowly walked towards the greatswords section on the second floor and happily checked each brand of greatsword.
Recently, he thought that the iron greatsword he bought was made by the local blacksmiths and so, it wasn't branded yet.
It was only a few months ago when he found out that his iron greatsword was actually a Doran brand iron greatsword and that was why it felt so nice to use.
There was only a single iron greatsword inside the academy weapon shop so it wasn't like he had any other choice.
This time, he wanted to give a chance to other brands so he meticulously tried and tested each silver-tier greatsword.
However, upon seeing that the Doran brand silver greatsword was only priced at 340 silver coins, he thought that maybe he could afford a gold-tier greatsword right now so he left the second floor and headed towards the third floor.
He then headed towards the gold-tier greatsword section and sure enough, he had enough funds to purchase most of the gold-tier greatswords except for the Doran brand.
Upon seeing the Doran brand's price, he started to develop a bit of negative feelings for the said brand.
"Tch…Why is it so expensive? There isn't even any notable difference when compared to most of the other brands…"
Since he couldn't afford the Doran brand, he stopped paying attention to it and enthusiastically checked the other brands.
He took a liking to a few brands such as the Alfredo brand, the Ludwig brand, and the Oberon brand but since there were still a few gold-tier greatswords left unchecked, Shye continued trying and testing the remaining ones.
His eyebrows rose upon seeing that the last greatsword was from the Meido brand again. He picked up the Meido brand gold-tier greatsword and swung it a few times.
"Damn! Why do I feel that this brand was tailor-made for me?!"
Shye complained with a smile on his face. Again, he loved the feeling of using the greatsword made by this up-and-coming blacksmith, Meido Chan.
Not only did he like the quality and feeling of using the greatsword, but it was also cheaper than the Doran brand.
The Doran brand gold-tier greatsword was priced at 650 silver coins while the Meido brand only costs 500 silver coins which is a whole 150 silver coins cheaper than the Doran brand.
Shye happily brought the Meido brand gold-tier greatsword named Daybreak towards the counter and upon seeing the greatsword, the shopkeeper's eyebrows rose.
"Oh? The Meido brand again? I have to admit, the young sir indeed had good eyes. I thought that you choosing the Meido brand earlier was nothing but a coincidence but I see now that you took a liking to the Meido brand" The shopkeeper said
The equipment enthusiast Shye Crowley liked talking about equipment so he smiled widely after hearing the words of the shopkeeper.
"I don't know but I do feel that the Meido brand perfectly fits my tastes as a warrior. Not only is the weight of their products perfect for me, but the body maneuverability offered by the armor set is also very convenient."
This time, it was the shopkeeper's turn to smile.
"You really do know your stuff, may I know the name of this young sir?"
"I'm Shye Crowley, a freshman student at the Colzen Adventurer Academy. I'll probably visit your shop regularly so may I also know the shopkeeper's name?"
"So it's Sir Crowley, my name is Jericho Adler, pleased to make your acquaintance."
"Likewise!"
After a few introductory words and pleasantries, Shye paid for the greatsword and happily left Hephaestus Armaments.
He then proceeded to walk towards the academy because he had another important agenda today.
The beginner adventurer zone is a bit too easy for him now so he would like to start adventuring inside the intermediate adventurer zone half an hour away from Colzen City.
However, he still didn't have an intermediate adventurer badge so he had to return to the academy and head to the Permissions Pavilion to apply for one.
