Pioneer 2 city

Gizel's wife: I don't think he knows the meaning of the word "waste." He buys weapons without a second thought. He could buy much better weapons earlier if he saved his money, right? He'll listen to you since you're also a Hunters. Convince him.; My husband? He may be at the shop, browsing for weapons again.

Young man: Oh...(sigh)... That weapon was great... really great...

Gizel: What? Who are you? An errand from my wife? I'm buying weapons too often? Shut up. Expensive weapons are strong. With strong weapons, I can kill expensive monsters, and I can be rich. So, it's smart of me to buy better weapons. Understand?

Yes, you're right.

Gizel: Good, good. This issue is just between my wife and me. Well, you can go now.; This issue is just between my wife and me. Well, you can go now.

Gizel's wife: I can't believe it. He snubbed you? My goodness... What he's saying isn't wrong, but he's not economical. Take a firm stand! OK?

Gizel: What, what? Did ya forget to say something? You can't convince me. I'm not wrong. With strong weapons, I can kill expensive monsters, and I can be rich. So, it's smart of me to buy better weapons. Understand?

No, I don't understand.

Gizel: Why don't ya understand?

Because I'm a fool.

Gizel: Oh, that's too bad. You'd better go to school every day.; Bye now.

It's not always true.

Gizel: You're saying that the expensive weapons aren't always strong, right? But listen. Even if its attack power isn't very high, it may be good. For example, it may have a good hitting ratio. The most important thing to get is a good point for the price you pay. You can't convince me. That's it?; Bye now.

Because you're a fool.

Gizel: What? Am I wasting money by buying all the time? Am I changing weapons too quickly, ignoring cost vs. performance? I... I can't rebut it. You're right... But... I... I can't stop buying weapons. Forgive me.; Please, forgive me...

Gizel's wife (if you answered "Because I'm a fool."): You were fooled by him, weren't you? I can't believe it. I said he's not economical 'cause he buys without thinking. Take a firm stand! OK?

Gizel's wife (if you answered "It's not always true."): Expensive weapons aren't always strong? I'm not talking about that. Buying weapons is fine, but he needs to be smart when he buys things. Take a firm stand! OK?

Gizel's wife (if you answered "Because you're a fool."): Did he finally understand? Now I know. He has a weapon-fetish. But we can't afford to waste money to keep him happy all the time. Tell him, NO MORE SHOPPING.; Now I know. He has a weapon-fetish. But we can't afford to waste money to keep him happy all the time. Tell him, NO MORE SHOPPING.

Gizel: Weapon-fetish?! [boum sound] Y...yes, I am! Look at this luster! Beautiful... I love it. New weapons are so beautiful and shiny. I love buying them. What?? NO MORE SHOPPING? It's too cruel...; It was my only...

Gizel's wife: Thank you. Was he really that disappointed? I'll allow him to buy weapons later. Good job. Please go and receive your money at the Guild.; Good job. Please go and receive your money at the Guild.

Claim your reward.
