My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

Chapter 183- Forgotten Armoury (Part 3)

"Woah!! What is that?!" Arthur exclaimed in shock. His eyes stared at the new appearance the carriage took. It had suddenly doubled in size, changed its outer appearance, and turned more into a small shop than a carriage. A small shop with wheels.

"This is the creepy carriage you have been chasing," Merry replied, making Arthur avert his eyes awkwardly. He had indeed said that this carriage was creepy and yet what he saw now was perhaps the coolest thing ever.

"Now, get on. I will show you something." The woman said as she stepped down the stairs and walked through the open door of the armoury. Arthur nodded and followed after her quickly, eager to see the interior of the place.

Stepping inside, Arthur was met with a very odd sight. The entire place was filled with all kinds of equipment with varying designs and colors. Piles of these items filled the place to the point where Arthur almost smashed into a pile of weapons the moment he stepped inside.

"Be careful, the place is a little messy," Merry said as she pushed a pile of weapons out of her way carelessly.

"..." Arthur nodded as he carefully navigated the narrow path to where Merry was. On the other side of the carriage was a small wooden counter where she put the breastplate.

"Now, what I have thought of are two options," Merry said as she lifted her fingers. "You can either sell this breastplate to a pawnshop or a weapon shop and get quick money from it."

"... Or?"

Arthur's plan was initially to do exactly that, sell the weapon and profit from it. However, upon hearing that there was a possible second option, he was naturally curious to know what he could do better with it.

"Or, you can let me keep this breastplate, and I can fix it for you if you want." She said. "Then, if you want to sell it, you will profit more from selling it."

"... Wait, you can fix it?" Arthur blurted out.

"Hm, it ain't going to be easy since this material is quite rare to find. But, nothing is impossible for me. I can definitely return it to its best state." Merry nodded her head. "I will need some time to do that, though."

"Of course, I would love that!"

'Return it to its peak state? When I got the armor set, it wasn't even in good shape. I wonder how good it will be if it gets completely fixed.' Arthur clenched his fists in excitement. He had already known that the damaged armor was way worse than it was when it was still new but the fact that it was still very sturdy and powerful. So, if it could be restored, then Arthur was bound to have an extremely good armor set to use.

"Mhm, I figured you would want that. You seem pretty fond of this thing." She said.

"Yes! It had helped me a lot in my journey." Arthur nodded his head. "But, I know it had to be put to rest at some point. If you can restore it for me, I will be eternally grateful."

"Yeah, yeah, don't worry about it, kid. Now, let's see, what kind of armor do you want to get as a replacement?" She asked.

Type: Armor

Damage Resistance Affinity: All effects

Damage Resistance: Variable

Special Ability: Infusing the emblem with mana forms a full armor around the wearer. The more mana is infused into the emblem, the stronger the armor will be.]

"Woah!" Arthur's eyes widened when he read the description of the item itself. 'All effects?! Does it have resistance over everything?! And that special ability... This is crazy!'

Arthur had never thought that this seamless item was a full armor set. But, what made it even more terrifying was the fact that it had no set number of damage resistance. The more mana he infuses it with, the better it becomes.

'Wait, does that mean it will get stronger and stronger as I get stronger too?' Realizing that possibility, Arthur looked up at Merry. "This is quite the powerful armor, Merry."

"Of course, I only have the best of the best when it comes to goods. That one is particularly good because it is perfect for every situation and in your case, it is very light and flexible so you won't feel it. Now, give it a try, let's see how it looks on you."

"Mmm, sure." Arthur nodded as he slowly channeled his mana into his hand before he let it seep into the emblem. Almost immediately, the item reacted to the mana, absorbing it quickly.

Then, it flashed with a bright light, almost blinding Arthur. Squinting his eyes, Arthur didn't react immediately to the emblem suddenly changing shape in his hands, losing its shape. Like shapeless liquid, the emblem started moving Arthur's arm like a snake, wrapping around his arm then his shoulder and quickly spreading to the rest of his body.

"Woah..."

"Don't move, let it do its magic," Merry said.

"..." Arthur gulped and nodded his head as he watched the liquid wrap around every inch of his body, changing and shifting with every passing second as if it had a mind of its own.

A few seconds passed before everything finally settled down and Arthur finally felt the armor harden, losing its liquid nature as quickly as it received it.

What was left was something he simply had never seen before.
