The drill hall was located within the citadel.
As befitting of the empire's mining area, which was also renowned for being its greatest armoury, all corners of the drill hall were decorated with every kind of weapon imaginable.
Hilda began picking out weapons that matched my physique and tossed them my way.
"Even if you're my younger brother from a different mother, I still should have paid more attention to you."
She tossed a spear, mace, sword, greatsword, morning star, steel chains, a pair of gauntlets, and then finally, a shovel.
I stared dazedly at the weapons strewn about on the floor before looking back at Hilda.
"Now that I think about it, this is our first meeting since Lady Yulisia's funeral, isn't it?"
A few dwarves walked up to me. Even if Hilda said she wouldn't attack, this was still a duel. At the very least, as a formality, they began putting leather armour on me.
