With how late it is, I'm surprised this place is still open, but then again, I guess adventurer's come through here every time of the day to buy or repair their weapons.
'Vandal's Blacksmith'
The door opens with a chime, alerting the man dozing behind the counter that I've come in.
"Ah, welcome~"
He greets with a forced smile.
Is he Vandal? He looks really young to be the owner, and very unfriendly to be managing a business, so maybe an employee?
Turning to the area that keeps swords, I notice one other person in the store.
Long blonde hair, with blue eyes, and a face that doesn't fit within a place like this.
I guess someone else thought to get some late night shopping in. She doesn't look like an adventurer. Is she here for the competition tomorrow?
