Ch 87: Chat with Hephaestus.

"Hello." Hephaestus says walking in with a smile. No longer wearing her eyepatch.

"So before we get started could I see your weapons?" Hephaestus asks

Ruby takes out crescent Rose and manages to put a hole in the floor.

"Oops." Ruby says

"Uh, we don't have to pay for that right?" Kyra asks

"First the wall now this." Tsubaki mutters under her breath.

"No, it's alright I kinda should've expected this your her familia after all." Hephaestus her smile still there.

'Why do I wanna make that smile falter... I'm not a sadist.' Kyra thinks

"Also who's this little one?" Hephaestus asks looking at the boy that's too young to be in a familia.

"That's our son." Ruby says sitting next to Kyra

While everyone else misses Blake is looking at Kyra with determination.

"Hmm, what's your name? Do you want a weapon I wouldn't mind making you one." Hephaestus says to the boy.

"Could I get ninja gear?" Naruto asks excitedly

"Sure, we can look for that later." Hephaestus says before picking up Crescent Rose.

"It seems similar to your captains weapon but it's casted steel, which is alright I guess but forged is better for weapons. The balance is alright, I'm guessing it has a built in gun aswell." Hephaestus says

"Yes it does, and any recommend upgrades? I'm hoping for sharpness and durability." Ruby says

"If you want sharpness and durability forged steel would be good. If you want more durability we could use Adamantine." Hephaestus before looking at Yang.

"Could I see your weapon?" Hephaestus asks

Yangs bracelets turn into the normal gauntlets as she takes them off and hands them to the goddess.

"Oh? These have some weight to them... Tungsten? Steel aswell. Not bad however I don't see what this part here does?" Hephaestus says looking at the firing mechanism.

"It's also part gun. It shoots modified rounds." Yang says

"I wish your goddess left a gun here so I could fully take it apart. But it is truly a dangerous weapon. Don't lose these." Hephaestus says handing them back.

Hephaestus then looks at Weiss.

"Here..." Weiss hands over the rapier after a little bit of arguing with herself.

"Interesting... you seem to be using elemental magic stones that's been crushed to dust to. Enhance your magic?" Hephaestus says unsure but her eyes are excited and Kyra noticed.

"Is everything alright Hephaestus-sama?" Kyra asks.

"It's been so long since I have seen a new idea. And this one may make it so any adventure can get a magical sword. Conquering the dungeon could be made easier. I want to improve this concept and perfect it." Hephaestus says excitedly as she unconsciously starts to take apart the rapier.

"*cough*" everyone is interrupted by Tsubaki's cough.

"Hephaestus-sama I believe they are here for a reason." Tsubaki says

"Right sorry. So armor? What kind do you guys want?" Hephaestus asks

"Could I get samurai armor but have the torso section be plate mail?" Kyra asks

"What metal? You would probably want some flexible metal for the other parts. The thread holding it together we could probably make wire too." Hephaestus says.

"Battle skirt?" Ruby asks

Weiss nods and replies back. "Battle skirt."

"Like Ais Wallenstein, that shouldn't be to difficult. I would also recommend some better boots. Maybe steel toe. Especially if you like to kick things." Hephaestus says

"You seem like you have experienced kicking things?" Kyra asks

"Nothing to worry about moving on!" Tsubaki quickly blurts out.

"What are you looking for? If your armor is too heavy it will slow you down." Hephaestus says to Yang

"Metal greaves and some metal arm braces should be good for me." Yang says

Hephaestus nods looking at the brawler.

"Do you have any light armor? Preferably Metal?" Osaka asks

"We have quiet a selection of those." Hephaestus says to Osaka

"I kinda want Knight plate mail for arms and legs though. I want the joints to be cloth, and the torso to be the light metal armor." Osaka specifies.

"So you get proper protection on the limbs but don't loose to much mobility. Not a bad idea." Hephaestus says signaling Blake to go.

"What about metal woven clothes? Like metal woven into the cloth to make it stab and slash resistant?" Blake asks

"Oh, that's a good idea! Tsubaki write that one down." Hephaestus says

"Yes Hephaestus-Sama." Tsubaki says

"Could you get them too the people that measure them? I want to work with the people making the metal woven cloth, and tell our adventures I need some magic stones." Hephaestus says with a smile since she has a few new projects.

"Right away Hephaestus-sama." Tsubaki says putting away the sketch and idea book.
