Resigning himself to the burden Gordon reached for the chain.
In the next second he had his hand swatted away by the arrogant NPC.
"What are you doing?"
Surprised Gordon pulled back his stinging hand and looked confused while answering.
"I was going to start wearing all that chain..."
"No, first you are going to put on all this training gear."
It was only now that the instructor used his foot to pull out another larger box and kick it over to Gordon. Inside was a whole lot of padding. Shoulder pads, thigh and shin pads, chest, back, and lower torso. There was arm pads and even a padded helmet. There were weird pads for his ears, neck, and for his area between his legs.
"Is all this necessary?"
The instructor didn't deign to answer. So Gordon had no choice to start obeying.
At the bottom of the box was a pair of steel boots that were incredibly heavy. All together the padding had to weight twenty kilos all by itself.
