[Basshu]

I am one of the brothers of the three brothers in charge of crafting shields in the east named Murata Basshu

People normally call us the Three Craftsmen, but the other two craftsmen are my brothers.

But It looks like you're not my usual customer type, so I cannot make you any shields.

Sorry.

Unfortunately, many of my shields have minimum requirements, and I'm afraid you would not meet them.

Come back when you're stronger.

I am one of the brothers of the three craftsmen in charge of crafting shields in the east named Murata Basshu

We are called the Three Craftsmen, but the other two craftsmen are my brothers.

I've learned my craft by sneaking looks over my brothers, so my skill is a little less than them, but many people praise me highly.

As of now, I've given up making shields and am currently running an antique shop for shields.

I'm researching to see if shields can be enchanted with magic.

Do you happen to know a shield called the Mirror shield from overseas?

I'd love to see that item, but I can't get my hands on one.

It'd help me greatly if I could see that shield up close.

Can you help me?

Ah~ I guess it was an impossible request.

I'm sorry.

If you ever find a Mirror shield and want to get rid of it, please come and see me.

Oh, thank you.

If you could really find me a Mirror Shield, I might get some really good ideas.

Oh. You have it?

Let me see...

Hmm ...

Oh! That's it! This proves it's not impossible to make a shield resistant to magical attacks.

Whew...

This sure gets me excited.

If you have a normal Arm Guard, bring me your Arm Guard, and...

1 Mirror Shield, and

20,000 Zeny, and I'll improve your Arm Guard into an Improved Arm Guard.

How about it? Would you like that?

Hmm, Very Well.

I'm so grateful you showed me that rare shield from overseas.

Thanks for everything.

Very Well.

I'm looking forward to this.

Bring me 1 Arm Guard,

20,000 Zeny,

and I'll make you an Improved Arm Guard.

Come and see me when you have everything ready.

Hmm.. It looks like there aren't enough materials.

For an Improved Arm Guard, I require...

1 Mirror Shield, 1 Arm Guard

and 20,000 Zeny.

Come again when you have these materials.

Hmm.. You brought plenty of materials, but you're short on zeny.

In order to create an Improved Arm Guard, I require...

The proper ingredients

have been gathered.

Before I begin,

I'll ask one last time.

In trade of the magical defence of the Arm Guard increasing, the shield's ability to block physical attacks may inevitably decrease.

Will you give me the materials you've gathered

and in trade, receive an Improved Arm Guard?

If you ever make up your mind

come and find me again.

Hmm~ Well then~

Shall we begin?

Bang Clang ~Bang Clang ~

Sweep Sweep~ Saw Saw~

HACK DETECTED

Here it is -- it's complete.

I've made you an Improved Arm Guard.

If you ever want me to create more items, come and ask me anytime.

Oh~ I see you've come back.

Are you here because you need an Improved Arm Guard?

Aha~ I see~.

Come back and talk to me anytime.

In order to make an Improved Arm Guard, I require...

1 Mirror Shield, 1 Arm Guard,

And 20,000 Zeny.

Looks like you brought me the correct ingredients.

Will you give me the materials you've gathered to receive an Improved Arm Guard?

If you make up your mind

I've made you an Improved Arm Guard

Why~ That's~!

Is what you have there that shield which is called a 'Mirror Shield' overseas?

Excuse me, but may I take a look?

I knew it!! It is a Mirror Shield~!

There must be a way any shield can posess magical powers!!

Shields could be much more useful than now.

Why didn't I think of this before?

I have two brothers, and together we are the Three Craftsmen of the East.

I learned my crafting skill by watching my older brothers.

Due to that, my skill is not as good as theirs, but many people say I am skilled...

As of now, I have also given up making shields and am currently running an antique shop for shields.

Therefore, I wanted to get an idea of how magic works on shields by studying a shield from overseas called the Mirror Shield, but I couldn't get my hands on one.

What stress that had caused me.

But luckily, you, a traveller, happened to have a mirror shield, and now I feel my creative spirit burning lively inside.

If you want, I will make you an Improved Arm Guard if you bring me 1 Arm Guard, 1 Mirror Shield, And 20,000 Zeny.

Would you like to try using one?

Hmm, is that so.

What a shame.

Come and find me if you change your mind.

And 20,000 Zeny

to receive an Improved Arm Guard?
