He'd traversed from shop to shop with this endeavor in mind, and hadn't been able to find quite the shop that he had in mind. It wasn't until he ran into one last shop that he found himself falling in love with a weapon being sold there. It was a weapon he was quite familiar with - a spear. He'd been trained in the use of pole-arms since he was but a child, and the prospect of using a weapon that was so decorated in Sin gave Jian a sense of nostalgia. It was then that he decided that he simply needed to purchase this spear. Luckily, he held enough jewels through the work he'd put in with Jiao to afford the spear. Sadly, it was much more expensive than he'd expected it would be.

Finally, she stopped running. Her hands fell to her knees as she doubled over, panting. Tears stung her eyes, but they clung to her lashes, as dearly as she clung to her sanity amidst all the sheer disappointment. It was sad, that her assessment of the day, relied so heavily on the emotions in her heart. Her feelings had very little to do with what was around her. They stemmed from circumstances that she could exert no control over. The lack of control brought with it another dose of frustration, this was a very steep downward spiral... As she caught her breath, her head snapped as it turned swiftly, to see if her partner had managed to keep up or not. Damn it! Now, where did Tsuru go?

"A pleasure doing business with you, pal! Here's your weapon!"
With the transaction complete, the shopkeeper quickly placed the spear across the counter in front of Jian. Before leaving the shop, he felt it was only right that he inspect the weapon one last time. Of course he inspected it prior to purchasing, however, if he were to bring up a complaint with the weapon after having left the shop with the weapon in tow it would have been harder to argue a flaw. The weapon seemed to be completely in working order - Jian even thrusting into the air with the sharpened tip of the spear in order to gain a good feel for the weapon. Though this was a sturdy enough weapon, it was obvious enough that this wouldn't be something that would be durable enough to last him for the entirety of his time in Fiore. He'd have to upgrade his arsenal quite a bit more if he was going to succeed in his mission.

Everything and everyone could still be a threat... Dante could've just been playing around with them, scattered them into the wind, so he could pick them off one by one. With the speed, he'd displayed, if he wanted he could catch up with Akira in mere seconds. Suddenly, she felt a prickling sensation on the back of her neck, the kind that one feels when they're being watched. Sharply, she turned, fearing that the Phantom may have followed her after all... Thankfully, it was all in her head. She composed herself and noticed the smithy. The lunar mage was now compelled to buy herself an armor... But first, she really needed to locate the healer...

Now armed with an actual weapon, Jian felt that this, in combination with his magic, would be enough for him to at least tacking C-ranked requests - hell, maybe even B-ranked requests. He allowed himself to calm down a bit from the last suggestion, as he knew in his heart he wasn't quite ready for such a level. Confidence in your abilities was one thing, being suicidal was another. Jian was no fool. He knew exactly what he was capable of, and he'd use this gauge in order to continue to push himself to advance and grow stronger.
