Weapon Choice

As I made my way back to Grace and the camp I was deciding in what weapon to choose, there were many that I wanted to try, but not many that I was sooted for, I realised today that I can't suited to close combat fighting, I simply didn't have the strength or dexterity to do so.

Think of strength and dexterity, I pulled up my status board to check how my stats had grown in my time training

My stats further proved and cemented my point, I wasn't built for close combat and I didn't have the right mentality for it either, I was never the one to get into fights back on earth either, I was more the type to attack in smart and subtle ways rather than stupid and showy.

In my time reading Danmachi I had always liked magic more than the fighting, I had always wanted to have magic anyway and now I had that I wanted to develop it to it's fullest potential.

So with that in mind I had a few ideas for weapons I could choose. A bow, a spear and a staff we're the ideas that stood out to me the most, these were the ideas that had the most potential, and as I could chose two I could essentially 'dual class', there were also ideas like a set of throwing knives, a crossbow or even a sword of some sorts that allowed me to fire of magic from it.

A bow would help with my dexterity and it was a great for using magic with it, I could infuse my shadows into the arrows and fire them off with an increased speed that I noticed Shadow magic sorely lacked perhaps it was because it was the opposite of light magic and light magic was by definition, he fastest magic.

A spear would be a nice fit, I could produce wide arcs of shadows with it and wipe out large numbers of monsters, and if I chose a special one from the system It might be able to do all kinds of things, like kings spear from the Seven Deadly Sins.

A staff would be the best option for me, if. Wanted to go with a mage sort of thing j would help with my magic, plus it would look super cool.

And any of the other options would do, but a type of sword would be good, many some like Ryuu's twin curved short swords or even a broad sword of sorts, so I can practice my close combat fighting.

Heck, many something like a magic sword, but that wouldn't do as they are always breaking so maybe something that just channels magic, like a conductor rode.

But that last thought brought me back to the bow and staff ideas, They seemed to be he most appropriate ideas for me, they both involved ranged combat, which I am suited for, and they both can me used as to do devastating damage in case of me using m6 magic in tandem with them.

All in all, I had mage my decision, I wanted a pair of short staffs that acted as a pair of conducting rods more my magic, I'd have to talk with Grace about what my options for them were, but I was certain that we'd find something that fit my style.
