Listening to Fujiwara's suggestion, Umichi agreed, to letting Fujiwara and Ayame go about doing that quest to help Ayame get a weapon she preferred. Seeing Ayame smile at him, Umichi smiled back. She spoke about how she wasn't accustomed to fighting, only knowing what she had seen in the fencing team and in manga. "It's fine, take all the time you need. You two could probably use some time to catch up anyway." "We won't go with just the three of us, Paka, we will get the other two as well. Anyway, Ayame is level 1, and has no battle experience, bringing her would be almost a complete death sentence for her. We don't know if there are some sort of tricks or special rules about the quest, so Fujiwara should stay around her and make sure she is safe." Umichi turned to Paka, rejecting the possibility of bringing Fujiwara and Ayame along. "Anyway, we should check the other two, they probably were woken up from the howl as well." Turning to the stairs, he looked up to see that Yui and Yumi were coming down the stairs. Turning around to start leading them out, "Yeah we got the quest too." he replied to Yumi. "Let's head out and check what is happening in town." Umichi started to lead. Exiting the inn, there were some very angry NPCs, and some wounded ones. The town seemed a little distressed. There were calls made by the NPCs. "It's that damn Dire Werewolf again!" "When can we get the weapon finished?" "It attacked Elliot! The blacksmith making it!!" "Oh no! What do we do!?" "Mum! Are you alright?" "Damn that beast!" "It got Yuna! Damn it! Our alchemist won't be able to make the oil!" There was an indicator over the top of one of the NPCs. Walking up to him Umichi asked the NPC. "What's going on?" [quote=Reeds, the mayor of Citadel] "That blasted Dire Werewolf has attacked the town again! We were in the process of making a weapon so that we could slay the foul beast, however, it has attacked Elliot and Yuna. Please young adventurers, please if you can, make the weapon and defeat the Dire Werewolf for us! The Dire Werewolf is known to live to the South of Citadel, in an open area surrounded by woods. Only the weapon will hurt the Dire Werewolf, it must be used to slay the beast!" [/quote] "Sure" Umichi answered nonchalantly, starting to walk over where the blacksmith was. "So it seems like we make a specific weapon to kill the Dire Werewolf. I would have to say a weapon made from Silver, but why is an alchemist involved? Any ideas guys?" asking the group. Reaching the blacksmith, Elliot, they could see he was bedridden. There was bandages wrapped around the man's torso. "Hello, the mayor asked us for help in regards to your ... werewolf problem." Umichi told Elliot. "I see ... who in your group is a blacksmith? I will lend you my equipment, and tell you how to make the weapon." "Yumi, that's you." Umichi turned to Yumi. The blacksmith tells Yumi how to make the [u]Silver Boar Blade[/u] and received three silver ingots, telling her that she will need three Frenzy Boar Hoofs. "So Yumi, we need to get anything for the weapon before you can make it?" Umichi asked Yumi. After getting a reply, "Hm... before we get it, we should go to Yuna, the alchemist, and see if we need to get anything there, so we can make it all at once." He said, heading to the alchemist, from the blacksmith. After reaching the alchemist, "Oh, you must be the ones the mayor asked for help." Yuna told them. "Who is your alchemist? I will tell you how to make the oil to polish the single-handed straight sword Elliot told your blacksmith to make." Facing Suki, Umichi watched as she would learn how to make the oil. Yuna tells Suki that they will need Sap obtained from Rooted Little Nepents (found during quest only, all Little Nepents encountered are rooted) and received some Mandrake Roots. "So, is there something we need to do for the oil too?" Umichi asked Suki. It was approaching 0300
