(Rina Pov)

*Flash*

*Hurp*

"Ah, sorry. Forgot about teleportation sickness."(Rina)

*Snap*

*Flash*

"Better?"(Rina)

*Nod*

"Well, that's good. Quick question before we go. Do you got like a weapon or something?"(Rina)

"(Confused) Yes?"(Selen)

"Good. Go grab it."(Rina)

"(Confused) Alright?"(Selen)

She then left to a room down a hallway. When she came back, she had what looked to be a pistol on her left hip and a sword on her right hip.

Something about that sword...

"Can... I see that sword?"(Rina)

"*Smug smile* Sure."(Selen)

(Confused) Why is she smiling like that?

She then handed me the sword in the sheath.

*Shiick*

*Grimace* Ah, that's why. This sword is an absolute piece of shit.

"(Smug) So how is it? Great right."(Selen)

"*Grimace* How much was this?"(Rina)

"This? Uh, like 50,000,000. It took a huge chunk of my pocket money that I've been saving since I was like 5. Though this is the newest and best model."(Selen)

"*Grimace* You were scammed and hard. This thing is trash."(Rina)

"(Shocked) What!?!?"(Selen)

"Yeah, this thing's garbage."(Rina)

I then threw the sword into my inventory.

"Give that back!!"(Selen)

"(Flat) No. And you're coming with me."(Rina)

I then grabbed her arm and pulled her into the portal before anyone could react.

"(Annoyed) Fi-"(Man)

"Not now I'm busy. Talk to my sisters."(Rina)

*Flash*

When we arrived at the other side of the portal a man with brown hair was there and wanted to talk but I was in a rush. I then teleported to a backstreet of Shadewolf.

*Flash*

"Blergh!"(Selen)

"*Whistle* That is some serious power there. Good thing I jumped out of the way."(Rina)

"N-Blergh!"(Selen)

*Snap*

*Flash*

"Better?"(Rina)

"A li-Blergh!"(Selen)

"(Shocked) You have severe teleportation sickness."(Rina)

"Is th- Hurp."(Selen)

"No. It's an easy fix. Just need to use a stronger cure."(Rina)

*Snap*

*Flash*

"Are you better?"(Rina)

"*Exhale* Much better. Now where are we? You just dragged me here with no explanation."(Selen)

"We're at a blacksmith."(Rina)

She then looked around and then gave me skeptical look.

"Are you sure this blacksmith is good? I mean."(Selen)

She then gestured to the area around us.

"Pfft, yes, I'm sure. I buy my stuff from him. Now let's go."(Rina)

*Ring Ring*

We then walked into the blacksmith's store which was full of weapons since he doesn't get a lot of customers.

"Darwin! Are you in!?!"(Rina)

*Ting* *Ting* *Ting*

I called out to the blacksmith but, he just ignored me and continued hammering away at whatever project he was doing.

"Darwin!! I know you're here! Get out here!!"(Rina)

*Ting* *Ting* *Ting*

I called out to him again, but he still ignored me.

"(Annoyed) Tch, fuck old bastard. OI ROCKMUNCHER!! GET YOUR SHORT ASS OUT HERE!!!"(Rina)

*Thump* *Thump* Thump*

This time instead of metal hitting metal I heard pissed-off stomps. Soon the door swung open and a elder dwarf who I was currently only at mid-nose section in height with brown eyes, a black bandana, and smithing gear on was standing there with a pissed-off look.

"(Pissed) What did ya' call me you shi'y br...at. Bahahahahahahahahaha! I always told ya' ta fix that shi'y personality yer's! An' look what happened to ya'! Now yer a fucking squirt! Bahahahahaha!!"(Darwin)

"*Eye roll* (Annoyed) Har har, laugh it up. But while you do that look at this."(Rina)

I then took out the sword and his face went serious. He then ran over and grabbed the sword from my hand to inspect it. His face turned to one of absolute disgust.

"Oi, where did ya' get this trash from?"(Darwin)

"*Shrug* I just found it."(Rina)

"(Pissed) Well if ya' ev'er meet the crea'er of this break thir hands. I mean they fucked up perfecly good me'al. Le' alone the enchantment. The only thing not complely fucked up is the magic stone."(Darwin)

"*Nod* I guessed it was a piece of garbage. Now why I'm here. I want to commission a sword."(Rina)

"(Confused) Don' ya' use a spear?"(Darwin)

"*Shakes head* No, that's just my secondary weapon. My main is something else. But that's off-topic. The reason I want a sword is for her."(Rina)

I then gestured over my shoulder at Selen who was standing right behind me. He then got a surprised look as if he just realized she was there.

"(Shocked) I ne'er tho'ugh I'd see the most notorious racist 'ere would come ta ma shop with a human."(Darwin)

"(Confused) Racist?"(Selen)

"Ey. That squirt right there is known for haten humans."(Darwin)

"*Eye roll* (Annoyed) I, A don't hate humans, I just don't like humans. And B she's not human either."(Rina)

He then gave me a look that said he didn't believe me.

"You'r tellin me you'r not racist even though all of you'r human bandit corpses are always mangled?"(Darwin)

"(Upset) How do you know it was me!? It could have been Hail, Izz, or Snow!"(Rina)

He then gave me another look that said he wasn't believing me.

"Tch, fine I did most of it."(Rina)

He then gave me look that said I should stop lying.

"(Mad) What!? That's the truth! Hail, Izz, and Snow also mangled some!"(Rina)

"*Eye roll* Whatev'er ya' say. Now what kinda sword ya' want?"(Darwin)

His face still said he didn't believe me but, he changed the subject.

"I want it made from okrian and have a durability and sharpness enhancement and a flame enchant. As for the specks ask her, she's the one using it."(Rina)

He then looked over to Selen.

"Let me see you'r hands."(Darwin)

"(Confused) Ok?"(Selen)

She then gave him her hands. It kind of reminded me of a trained dog.

"Hmm, standard long sword and medium weight. I can do this in 2 hours. Now pay up brat."(Darwin)

"Uh, can you add a flame magic stone connected to the hilt? And how much?"(Rina)

"Ey' and 60 silver."(Darwin)

"(Shocked) What!? 60 silver!? Come on, I got you a contract with the castle. Can't I get a discount?"(Rina)

"(Annoyed) I'm barely maken anythin from this brat. So, 60 silver or no sword."(Darwin)

"(Annoyed) Tch, fine."(Rina)

I then took out a pouch with 60 silver in it. I was going to hand it over to him when-

"(Anxious) Uh, if it's so expensive you don't have to get it for me."(Selen)

"*Eye roll* This 'ere brat ain't broke. She's just cheap. And even if she was, she'd just go rob some bandits."(Darwin)

"(Upset) I do not rob bandits! I just st- I mean confiscate the stolen money."(Rina)

"She was totally about to say steal."(Selen)

"(Upset) I was not! Now shut up or no sword!"(Rina)

"I still don't know why you're even getting me a sword when I could just use the one you took from me."(Selen)

"(Flat) Because if you used that sword, you'd die pretty fast, and I can't have you joining our party with a shitty sword, or we'd become a laughingstock."(Rina)

Well, there's another reason I dragged her here but, she'll find out later.

"(Confused) Join your party? When was I going to be told?"(Selen)

"(Dumbfounded) Of course you're joining our party. We can't just have our spouses sitting around or something."(Rina)

"And if I don't want to?"(Selen)

"You don't have a choice. If you want to be in a relationship with one of us joining our party is part of it."(Rina)

"Tch, fine."(Selen)

"*Eye roll* Is you'r little lovers quarrel over so I can get paid?"(Darwin)

""It's not a lovers quarrel!""

"*Eye roll* Whatev'er."(Darwin)

"Just shut it. She's Hail's not mine. *Toss*"(Rina)

I then tossed him the bag and he went to the back to work on the commission.

"(Awkward) So what now?"(Selen)

"It's time to do some shopping. I'll pay. I want you to get a ring and gift for Hail. I'll also be taking you to a tailor to get you some normal clothes and a dress."(Rina)

"(Confused) I might understand the clothes but, why the dress?"(Selen)

"Ah, that is for a coronation that is happening in less than a month."(Rina)

"(Shocked) Wait, what!? I-I'm not pr-prepared for th-that!"(Selen)

"You'll be fine. Since you're from a noble house I assume you know noble etiquette?"(Rina)

"W-Well yes. B-"(Selen)

"Then you'll be fine."(Rina)

"B-But, I-I'm not g-good with b-big crowds looking a-at me."(Selen)

"*Waves hand* Don't worry, you'll be with us. Now let's go!"(Rina)

*Ring Ring*

Before she could argue anymore, I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the main street. The people in the street made a little bubble around us as to avoid me.

"(Confused) Why is everyone going around us?"(Selen)

"Ah, they're avoiding getting in my way. Now let's go to the tailors."(Rina)

She then had a confused look and was about to ask something but, I started dragging her again.
