When we arrived in town it was already 12. Knowing the girls, I'm sure we will be here for a while.

"Where to first," Harry asks

"Hmm," all the girls think

"Hmmmmm," the boys think

"Let's look for equipment first, it'll be the most expensive," Jam says

"Good idea, I would hate to buy a ton of stuff then not be able to buy the important stuff," Liz says with an unsure look as she scratches her head

"Armour and weapons it is then," Punisher says as we start to hunt for the goodies.

Honestly, I'm not sure if Qweep has anything he would need in a fight, I've never seen him fight before and all he has is pointless clothing like the clown when we first met. Surprisingly Qweep was the first to lay his eyes on his future weapon. In his sights was a dagger with a whip on the opposite side of the blade.

"Perfect," He says with a devilish look on his face

"You with a whip.....I like" Looky says

"I'm bailing," I tell the group

Everyone agreed with me and we left Looky and Qweep alone to do their shopping

We kept walking until we found an armour store.

"You guys might need new armour, I don't but I could come in and help you choose," Harry says

"Same, here" I add

The three girls and Punisher nodded to our suggestion

I went with Punisher to the men section and Harry went with the girls.

"Kinda surprising that there is a whole building for armour in SAO, this wasn't abnormal in our world but for NPCs to set it up, not bad," I tell him

"Yea I know that feeling," He says

We go through the armour but there's nothing that screams edge lord like what Punisher wants. I continue to go through the clothing until I bump into one of the NPCs, as I bump them they drop a box that they were carrying.

"O, shit sorry," I say picking up some of the armour. I quickly notice that it is completely black

"Is this for sale?" I ask

"O, not anymore, it's been here for months and no one has even looked at it, no point in letting it take self space, it's going in the dumpster," the NPC tells me

"If that the case, I think my friend will be interested," I say looking at Punisher

"Yes indeed, I'll buy it," He says

"Here you go," the NPC says handing the armour to Punisher, "that will be 3000 col"

Punisher checked the stats and his eyes shot open, "only 3 thousand!? That's pretty cheap for armour with these stats"

"It's been on the shelf for a while, it needs to go," the NPC says

"No complains from me," Punisher says.

He transfers the money to the NPC and we make our way to the girls.

"You gonna put it on," I ask
