Our heroes return from the expedition to Goblin Canyon with magic ore. Now they just needed to sign up for their next big adventure. "Hey Princess Claire, they got a frog hunting quest. Do you want to do that?" Ozu asked casually as he looked over the job board.
Meanwhile Duke received a letter. "You have magic ore. I challenge you to a smith off. - Signed Blacksmith Tony." What in the blue hell is a Smith off? H should ask Lynn about the details.

Duke read the letter and sighed. "Great, he's up to his usual nonsense. Though, it does look pretty serious this time. I wonder..." Duke thought aloud before going over to Lynn, the guild girl.
"Hey, Lynn. Tony sent me a letter, something about a "smith off". Do you know what he means by that?" He asked once he reached her desk.
"Hey, Lynn. Tony sent me a letter, something about a "smith off". Do you know what he means by that?" He asked once he reached her desk.
Lynn took the letter. "Basicly you each make a weapon, then have a contest to see who made the better weapon. Naturally smith's don't fight. So you choose a warrior and the warrior tries to complete a kill quest and get a better rating with said weapon. The elect judges to rste effectiveness, quality, and style. The contest will be a Goblin Slaying contest. Because they keep pestering people. You fought goblins before right? You should make an effective weapon. The problem is picking a wielder."

"Yeah, I've fought the tiny bastards before. I can see why they were chosen." Duke crossed his arms and sighed. "Well, looks like I'll have to find someone to test out the weapon I make. Goblin Slayer is an obvious choice, but he also only seems to use lower level gear, so I doubt that he'll be willing to use something magic. Yashima only uses her hammer, and I don't think Pixie would be willing to use anything unless it made her taller. That only leaves one guy I know of... Hey, quick question Lynn. Do I need to post a quest in order to have someone test it, or is this more of an informal kind of thing where I can choose whoever?"
"Well I am fine taking part in the smith off. I'm best with swords, but can use any weapon really," Replied Ozu to Duke. He stepped away from the quest board. "Why do you keep calling her Lynn? Her name is Luna," explained Ozu. At this guild receptionist Luna said, "Now now, that is quite alright A lot of people call me Lynn by mistake. I prefer they try to use a name instead of just saying GUILD GIRL like some people." As if on cue GOBLIN SLAYER shows up. Ozu said tothe Goblin Slayer, "Hey Taro, What is up?" The Goblin Slayer replied,"Damn it Swordsman. The Goblin Slayer only uses job titles, not names. Call me Goblin Slayer. GUILD GIRL! I heard there is a quest to kill goblins! I would like to take it!" Luna just face palms. "Well it is a quest to test out a magic weapon on goblins. A smith off! You can't participate unless a smith chooses you," Explained Luna.

"Thanks Ozu. If the weapon wins, you'll probably get to keep it. Unless you want to give it back, which would also be fine," Duke says right before BLACKSMITH TONY appears. "Oh hey Tony. Say, why are you even challenging me to this anyways? Are you still angry about the whole guild thing?"

Princess Claire blinked as she muttered, "Uhm what kind of frogs are we talking hero..." she stepped closer hiding next to Ozu when she heard Goblin Slayer. "Shit...." She would glance around as she paused hearing Duke. "Hey if Ozu is going up against Goblin layer....I think we can place a wager...cause I know my hero will not fail me." She nudged Ozu as she spoke, "How about whoever wins gets to do what they want with me....does that sound like a good prize..." She paused as she blinked, "wait who is going to judge this tournament..."
"Honestly no. Business has been slow lately and contests like this are just gimmicks we use to get the word out and increase sales. Even If I lose, the Goblin Slayer using my sword to kill a bunch of goblins will get people coming to my store. Complacency is the death of innovation. Our rivalry would do us both good," Tony admitted Bluntly. It has been kind of dull here with nothing but standard kill quests and fetch quests. A Competition could liven things up.
"Well I suppose it will be me, Wiz, and I guess you. Though this is a smith off, we can't stop others from entering. There has been a bounty postred on the heads of all goblins during this event. But we will rate which weapon is best by kill counts with weapon, how useful it is, and I guess style," said Luna. She looked a tad unsure to be honest. But the job fell to her.

"That's good to hear Tony. But yeah, you're right. My shop's not been doing so hot as of late, so this competition would be a big help then." Duke said as he reached out his hand. "I'll take you up on this duel then, Tony."
"I refuse! I don't want a toilet princess," said Ozu bluntly. Goblin Slayer said,"You can't put people up as prizes. I concur. Besides the winner wouyld be the blacksmith not us." Well shit, that must take the wind out of Clair's sails. Having Duke or Tony having their way with her. Just then a third smith appears. "What? You guys are making swords? Pah, that is old hat. What we need is cannons. As Alucard sama said, 'Bitches Love Cannons'. So I'll enter a cannon," Said the new comer.

"Ah, looks like we have a fourth smith entering in then?" Duke said as he retracted his hand. "So it'll be you, Tony, Wiz, and I making some goblin killing weapons then? Well, the more the merrier I suppose. What's you're name anyhow?"
"Third blacksmith. I am Catherine. Wiz is a judge and not entering. I just need some one to use my kick ass cannon in battle," said Catherine. Instead of a handshake she Hugged Duke and does the Italian greeting of kissing the cheeks. She then does the same to Blacksmith Tony who returns the greeting without missing a beat. ""Ciao" She said to Tony. Catherine then looked for volunteers to wield her cannon.

Duke was taken aback by Catherine's greeting. It wasn't often then he received a platonic hug from some strange woman that he just met, but he didn't hate it either. "Welp, better start making my weapon then. How long do we have for this anyways?" Duke asked Tony.
"Three days should be fair. So I'll see you guys then," said Tony. The meeting officially breaks as the smith's go to build their kick ass weapons. Yashima runs up to Duke and asks,"Is there any way I can help you Duke?" She looks at Duke with big hopeful eyes. Outside combat, she has no skills. So how are you going to handle this Casanova?

"See you in three days then Tony." Duke said as he was about to head off to his shop to start working on his weapon, before Yashima ran up to him. "Kinda, yeah. Making magic weapons usually has more ingredients than just metal, so depending on what I end up making I could need some other materials. So, while I don't have anything for you at the moment, I'll probably need your help getting those later."
"Bah, I'll offer up a real prize then. The winner of the smith off can have this!" Lolo held up a ticket to the secret Succubus Cafe where you get your dreams. For the first time anyone can remember Blacksmith Tony gets fired up. "Victory shall be mine!" he declared. Catherine just gave a dismissive sound. Lolo gives Pixie a broad smile and said,"That will fire them up."
Meanwhile Yashima is kind of bummed she can't do anything. "Okay Duke, I'll help later," she said. She then goes to a regular cafe for a Latte and doughnuts. Ozu winced a little and said,"Well I'll see you in 3 days."

"They are having a SMITH OFF to see who can build the better goblin slaying weapon. So they each made a sword and then have a warrior go kill goblins with it. The judges rank which is the best!" explained Lolo. Then her face brightened as she got an idea. "Pixie should enter! She forged her body into an ideal weapon! She can kill more goblins with her rocking body then some silly sword could," exclaimed Lolo. Well some one has a fan. "Fine she can enter if she wants," said Luna with a sigh. This was getting complicated.

"Well, you go ahead and do that then Pixie. It might bring in new customers if someone without equipment enters in. That or completely screw everything up. Either way, I need to start preparing. See you in three days." Duke said as he walked through the door of the guild hall, before stopping just in front of it and turning to Pixie, a serious look on his face. "I will give you a heads up though. While I'm not sure on how good of a smith Catherine is, I can assure you that both Tony and I are almost unrivaled. This won't be as easy as you might expect it to be." Duke stated in a much more serious voice than he usually had, which was saying something, before finally leaving to get to his shop.

Claire blinks a bit hearing goblin slayer. As everyone else in these past few minutes spoke among themselves, her gears slowly started to turn. She looked puzzled. Inside her head she was putting mathematical problems and failing left and right. 2 + 2 = apple, e = mac and cheese 7 ate 9 cause it was better, but 7 upside down is L for loser..... She held her head a moment as she muttered, "Geez I uh I need to take a moment."
The princess sat down at the counter, ordered a beer, drank it....spent the next few minutes thinking and sipping till she spit up the alcohol all over the counter and bartender. "WHAT! BUT YOUR THE ONES BATTLING SO YOU SHOULD GET A PRIZE TOOO AND NO OFFENSE I GET TO SAY WHO GETS ME AS A PRIZE! I AM A JUDGE DAMN IT.....THAT'S IT I ORDER YOU TO KILL THE MOST GOBLINS OZU AND THEN I WILL PAY YOU GREATLY AFTERWARDS!"
She glared at the Goblin slayer as she muttered waving the mug in the air near him, "What Am I not good enough for a prize.....do you think I am dumb.....the blacksmiths get their prize this was not for them it was to motivate your sorry asses.....you really pulled a fast one but I am not as dumb as some goblin...I am a princess and I am definitely not stupider than you!"

Ozu and Goblin Slayer just face palm. The whole guild just face palms. Okay then on to the contest.
Three Days Later....
The Party is each gifted there kick ass weapons and are sent to a Goblin village to slaughter all the goblins. Goblin sSlayer is in unusually good spirits.
Blacksmith Tony submits the Sunsword from Thundarr the Barbarian. So basicly a Fantasy Lightsaber.
Gear +1
Grants: Attack +1
Sunsword strike: Effective x2 (+10), Weapon (-5), Unique Flaw:Noisy (-5) Affinity (Heat/Fire)
The Sunsword from Thundarr the Barbarian is a blade of pure scorching Sunlight. When activated it makes a distinct sound with every swing making stealth or sneak attacks impossible.
Goblin slayer activates the Sunsword giving it a couple of swings. "This is acceptable," he comments to Tony. Tony nods and said, "Good." Both are men of few words.
