I Am Legend 11 Meeting Mr. Ruddy Again

They arrived at the village in 2 hours. The sun was already set, the moon now took its duty to light up the darkness. It was already 6 PM when they arrived at Mr. Roland house.

Mr. Roland was preparing to cook for dinner. Ryth, Llyod, and Hill wanted to help him, but he refused and said that they could took a bath first. Ryth was helpless with Mr. Roland's persistence, so he gave up and took a bath first.

After he was done, he saw Llyod and Hill already helping Mr. Roland cooking the meal. It seems that they had already finished bathing before Ryth.

Speaking of why they could took a bath at the same time, it's because Mr. Roland house was quite big. he has 3 bedrooms, a living room where they cook there as well on the fireplace. and there were 3 bath rooms. One is inside Ryth's room, 1 inside Mr. Roland's room, and the last is near the living room.

Ryth guessed that Mr. Roland had a big family long ago, but under a certain reason, they were not here anymore.

"Ah, Myth! There you are! Llyod and Hill told me what happened in the dungeon! You are quite a strong boy, eh? Hahaha!" Mr. Roland waved his hand as he greeted Ryth.

"Ah, I'm just lucky..." Ryth scratch the back of his head as he smiled to Mr. Roland.

The 4 of them chatted for awhile, and then Ryth helped Mr. Roland with the dishes. After he's done with the dishes, he went straight to his room.

Ryth lay down on his bed and asked Daedalus. "Can you show me my status? And also, tell me all of your abilities."

"Okay, no problem."

The status panel appeared on Ryth's interface.

-------------------

"Wow, the INT boost from [Eye of Daedalus] is just cheating!" thought Ryth in shock.

"Amazing isn't it? The eye doesn't need any minimum status requirements, since you have to took out one of your eyes to equip it. That's why I said that you and I are fated back inside the dungeon." Daedalus said in a proud tone.

"I see. So that's why I can equip it right away." Ryth thought to himself and asked, "Daedalus, there are many legendary items, right? Do you know where the others are?"

"Yeah, there are. But I don't know exactly where they are, since they are scattered around the world." Daedalus replied.

"Oh, that won't be a problem." Ryth said with a grin.

"What?! You know where the other legendary items are?" Daedalus asked in shock.

"Well, I think I know a bit... but I'm not sure either. I need to see it for myself." Replied Ryth. He knew where the other legendary items were in 'The Throne'. But in this world, anything might happened. So he could went to where they are according to his memories. But whether if it's there or not, he doesn't know.

"Okay, put aside the legendary items talk. Let me know all of your abilities, Daedalus."

"Alright..." although Daedalus wanted to know further about the other legendary items, but he decided to show Ryth his abilities first. He could ask him about the legendary items whenever he want anyway.

"Are these all of it?" asked Ryth.

"Yeah, for now." Replied Daedalus boasting.

"What do you mean? The laser one that can be upgraded?

"Mhm, that too. But that's not what I mean. Ku ku ku!" Daedalus laughed and continued, "You can upgrade the [Eye of Daedalus] with a certain materials to unlock the other skill."

"Oh? What is this material you spoke of?" Ryth was somewhat curious now.

"There are elemental gems throughout the world. Each has their own uniqueness." Daedalus said.

"Ah... so if I could obtain any of them, you can upgrade the [Eye of Daedalus] and it will acquire a unique skill from it?"

"Precisely. You are smart, partner! Ku ku ku!." Daedalus laughed.

"Well, after we are done with these matters regarding my stepbrother's rebellion, maybe we can search for those gems." Said Ryth in a relax tone.

"It's a promise okay? Let's get those matters done, then. With Hill, Llyod, and me on your side. Nothing is impossible! Ku ku ku!" Daedalus said in a proud tone.

"Alright, alright... Let's just sleep. We need to wake up early tomorrow." Ryth said, as he closed his eyes.

--------------------------------

Today, the way Ryth woke up from his sleep was different... the sound of cirping outside? No. The wind tapping the window? Neither. It's because of...

"Wake up boy! New day, new spirit! Ku ku ku!" Daedalus's voice was so loud, Ryth woke up in an instant as he shouted back to him. "You are too loud! Can you be a little more considerate? I'm so tired due to all of those things yesterday!"

"Come on, partner! Show some spirit! Ku ku ku!" Daedalus ignored Ryth's complains and laughed.

"Huh... now I know, my morning would never be the same as before anymore..." Ryth sighed as he shook his head.

Ryth got up from his bed and do some exercise, he took a bath first, change his clothes with the ones he received from Mr. Roland. Then he changed his bandages too and went outside to the living room for breakfast.

He found Mr. Roland, Hill, and Llyod making breakfast. Ryth sat near Mr. Roland and told him about what he wanted to do today with Llyod and Hill. He gave his thanks to Mr. Roland because he already helped him and his teammates so much. Ryth said that he owed a favor to Mr. Roland and he would return this favor in the future. Although Mr. Roland said Ryth doesn't need to repay him, but Ryth couldn't accept it. Mr. Roland could only sighed as he nodded his head in helplessness.

After breakfast, Ryth, Hill and Llyod packed their things inside their bags and said goodbye to Mr. Roland.

Mr. Roland's eyes was a bit watery as he waved his hands towards Ryth and his team disappearing to the distance.

"Make sure, we don't forget this debt." Said Ryth to Llyod and Hill in a low voice.

"Of course, we won't!" Said them in unison.

"That Roland guy is really friendly and kind. He is a man worthy of my respect." Said Daedalus in agreement.

They headed to Mr. Ruddy's house to complete the secret quest.

After some time, they arrived. It was 7 AM in the morning.

Mr. Ruddy was at the terrace of his house when he saw them walked towards him. A hint of shock could be seen in his eyes.

"Did you guys really obtain the potion?" He asked in agitation as he stood up from his seat.

Ryth only smiled and nodded.

Mr. Ruddy's mouth was opened, his eyes were out from their sockets. He was speechless and couldn't believe it.

"Come in! Let's talk inside!" Said Mr. Ruddy in excitement.

They walked inside, straight to the living room and sat on their seats.

"Do you really have the potion?" asked Mr. Ruddy in hurry.

Ryth smiled and said. "Yeah, we do. Here." He lifted his right hand above the table and took the potion out of the inventory.

Suddenly, a medium sized potion appeared on the table.

When Mr. Ruddy saw it. He could see that the potion is as clear as gla.s.s! It is indeed the dragon's tears potion!

Mr. Ruddy's hands were trembling, even his broken hand was no exception.

Ryth lightly smiled and said, "Yeah, you can drink this, but afterwards, you have to make us some equipments."

"Of course! I will make you as many as you want!" Mr. Ruddy nodded his head mutliple times.

Suddenly, Daedalus asked in confusion. "You want this guy make you some equipments? Are you forget about me?"

"Well, when I made an agreements with him, I already told him if I can heal his hand, he will make me some equipments. And at that moment, I haven't meet you yet, so I need his skills. Also, there is another reason why I want to heal his broken hand." Replied Ryth.

"Okay, what is the reason?"

"I want to recruit him to my domain as the castle official blacksmith." Ryth smiled and continued, "I made this agreement to built a good relations.h.i.+p first with him. I do have many good blacksmiths in my domain. But Mr. Ruddy's skill is higher then them, his skill is only second to you if what you said that you are the most skilled craftman in history was true."

"Ohh, I see."

"You can have a drop of it, Mr. Ruddy."

Mr. Ruddy nodded his head as he took the potion, and drink a drop of it.

Suddenly a golden light surrounded his right arm. After some time, he shouted in excitement.

"I could exert the power to my right hand again! Hahaha! This is like a dream!"

"I'm happy for you too, Mr. Ruddy." Ryth smiled and continued, "Can you make us the equipments now? We have the materials needed."

"Sure! come to the smithing room now, follow me!"

After they had arrived in the smithing room, it wasn't as dusty as the last time they went here. Mr. Ruddy must have already cleaned it before hand in case when Ryth and the others shows up.

He prepared the smithing and exercise a bit to loosen up his right hand. After a short time, he asked, "Where are the materials? Put it right here."

Ryth gave him 12 ebony ingots and said. "Here are the materials. I want a set of heavy armor for this big guy here." He pointed at Llyod and continued, "And a bow, a one-handed sword, a great sword and 2 daggers.

7 ebony ingots for the heavy armor set, the bow is for hill, the great sword is for Llyod, and the one-handed sword is for him. As for those daggers, it's for the helper he would meet before he made a move againts his stepbrother.

"Okay! It will be done in a couple of hours! Wait inside!"

-----------------------------

They walked back to the living room, Ryth sat on the chair and asked. "Daedalus, I need you to make a clothes armors for me and Hill. You can do it right?"

"It's easy! I could make it for Llyod too!" exclaimed Daedalus.

"No, Llyod prefer heavy armors... he's a hardcore fan of it..."

"Ah, I see. It's okay then, I can make it for the two of you!"

"Alright, you better not disappoint me!" Ryth said as he smiled.
