"Hello! Taking a break all the way over here now? I thought you would all still be down in the mines?" Gil was surprised to see them since he assumed they would be hunting slimes for some time. 

"Naaa, they had the golems take over since your hero alchemist showed them how to make those potions. We got sent back up here to work on well….nothing right now." The crossbowmen laughed together since this seemed to happen to them fairly often. 

"Well, how about helping me out then? I need to find some wind elemental crafting materials for my bow to be modified and I have no idea where to look." Gil thought that asking the only other form of archer in the dwarf city would be the best idea. He was right. 

"Boys, want to go on a search mission fr once? Should kill some time before we can head back to work?" The leader of the crossbowmen looked at his team of four behind him and smirked. They always needed something to amuse themselves since the crossbowmen was not a favorite group due to the fact that dwarves preferred to get up close and personal in battles with hammer sand axes instead of hold back with crossbows. 

The crossbowmen looked interested since they often found themselves bored. They had even volunteered as patrols on the surface until the golems took over fully. Now it was left to golems at all times and the only events that there would be actual dwarves patrolling were the monster breeding seasons when there was more chance of merchants being attacked. 

"So what are you looking for specifically. We can split up and hunt some things down. We all have our connections since we have plenty of free time." The leader of the crossbowmen was eager to put some of his connection to use since he had rare;y had a chance to call on the favors that he had built up by looking to kill time. 

"Well, I\'m not really sure. The quest I have just says I need to gather wind affinity materials that can be used to enhance the bow I use. So in theory, I will need some kind of wood and ore or metal to add to the main body of the bow. Then I will need something to reinforce and add strength to the bowstring. I would also like to add some mana gems so that I can let the wind elemental mana build up on the bow but they would need to be small." 

The crossbowmen looked like they had just been given all they need. "I have the mana gems. My cousin crafts all sizes." 

"We have a few branches of that weird tree from the mountains. I can get the old man to give it over if we help him for a bit." 

The crossbowmen headed off separate ways with three heading one way and one another. "So we have to go looking for string and ore. Hm, I wonder if glider spider thread would work? They live in the mountains and use wind magical attacks to hunt prey instead of venom. They also use their spider thread to create flaps between their legs to glide from peak to peak." The crossbowmen had been lucky to go on a trip to a mountain village once and fought these glider spiders. 

"That sounds like it could be perfect. I never knew there were spider monsters that used their silk like that." Gil was pleasantly surprised and wanted to rub it in Walkers\' face a little since it was definitely a fact that Walker didn\'t know. However, there were more pressing matters on his mind. 

"The ore will be a challenge, I haven\'t heard of an ore that has wind elemental properties. But I\'m no miner or smith so we will go and talk to the guy that makes our crossbows. He\'s a bit of a jerk but he is damn good at what he does." The dwarf made Gill a little apprehensive about going to this dwarf but He had no choice. If they were able to find a wind elemental ore then it was worth any price. 

"I just wonder what kind of modifications the bow will have and if the spirit will actually be able to move freely. If this quest helps me with this then I will be able to apologize for dragging this wind spirit and using its power." The dwarf looked at Gil and realized that there was much more to the heroes than he had seen in the first glance. The heroes weren\'t just powerful system users with unique gear. They were people who had a strong feeling and drive. 

"You can count on the people we are going to see. I promise that they will have some answers for you and if they don\'t have the materials they will know who does." The dwarf felt his resolve strengthen. Today was a good day.
