Rising Of The Shield Hero Web Novel ver

Welcome

"My my, if it isn't Hero-sama. Welcome."
"I certainly was not expecting this."

We show up at the Slave trader's after the run-in with Motoyasu.

"What business do you have today?"
"Putting that aside......"

I am quite concerned with how the slave trader is dressed.
Even his subordinates...... They are all wearing luxurious accessories that are shaped like wings.

"That wing design looks good"
"Thanks to Hero-sama. Yup"
"Ha?"
"These profits were due to the Hero-sama peddling."
"What do you mean?"

I can think of several reasons, but none of them are too significant.

"First of all is the infamous Filolial Queen. Many nobles with demon collections are trying to obtain one. Yup"

Ah, so the reason his reputation rose is because Filo was pulling the carriage. Well she is certainly a rare demon, if someone wanted one they would of course come to the slave trader and check.
and whenever a noble comes he just points them to my direction.
I will not sell Filo because of her poor attitude and rampage.

"So when they give up, they purchase various other demons. Yup"
"that's just like you"

At the moment the condition to become a Filolial Queen is still a mystery to me.
Otherwise there would be a lot more sold.
Will it become a queen if it's raised by a hero?
Two is not a good idea..... Filo alone is troublesome enough.

"Next, because Hero-sama's slaves are seen, there is a rumour that my shop's slaves are high quality, so I get some extra profits. Yup"

It's Raphtalia this time huh......
Raphtalia is certainly a beauty with a great figure.
Once people know where she came from they would give them credit.
Will everything i do raise the slave trader's reputation?

"So, what do you need this time? Another slave? Maybe your co-operation on Filolial experiments?"

The slave trader rubs his hands together happily.

"No, I came for demon dealer business this time."
"Then Filolial experiments it is."
"That's not it"

Are there only 2 options in this guy's head?

"So, what do you need?"
"Ah, I was wondering whether or not I could purchase equipment for Filo here."
"Equipment?..... that can be done"

The slave trader turns to observe Filo.
The salve trader hummed cheerfully as Filo ran and hid behind my back.
As expected, she is bad with him.

"Would a horseshoe shaped weapon suffice? there is also armour made for Filolials......"

Armour is probably impossible, it is unreasonable to tailor-make something considering Filo's body size.

"Do you have anything for charging?"
"You could equip a helmet. To use when tackling"
"Hmm......"

The horseshoes might work since she is not a horse.

"What about the claws?"
"Filo, what do you want?"
"Eh?"

Were you too scared of the slave trader to listen?

"You can get a helmet or have shoes attached to your feet."
"Umm..... When Filo transforms it will dig into my skin, No~"

Ah, is the threat from the dressmaker's still working?
It would be no problem in her demon form, but It would be very heavy for her in human form.
The horseshoe would dig into the foot too, and the size of the armour might not be correct.
We head to the magic shop, it seems to be possible to add the string to metal plates, but it would be very expensive.
The defence would not increase that much either.
