A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 306: The gossip and its 11 souvenir stories

Three days have passed since the Reurus returned to the abandoned city of Laval.

As a result of the long journey, Reurus and the others are devoting their time to rest.

Only Reus went out to the vicinity of Laval Waste City to hunt monsters, but he told himself it was a break in the sense of replenishing magic.

Of course, they weren't just hunting monsters. Having been away from the abandoned city of Laval for more than two months, I didn't forget to take a break and show my face to someone I knew.

"How about souvenirs being a monster's material?

"I thought Grandma would be happy... ah, there's a decent souvenir? I bought it on the way."

It's one of the places Reurus showed his face. Calvin, Meer's father and the finest blacksmith in the dwarf, looked stunned at what Reurus had brought in.

After returning from a long journey, I thought it had been a long time since I had met my face, and I brought in monster materials called souvenirs. If I hadn't brought the exotic liquor as a "sweet souvenir”, I would have kicked it out of the blacksmith's shop.

"Oh, thank you. But... I've never seen anything like it, but this is a 'neck hunt'."

Therefore, Calvin was convinced and looked at the materials brought in by Reurus.

The materials that Reurus brought in were fur, bones, and nails from the "neck hunt". I brought along the crossbows that Gregorian Keiths had, but Calvin seemed more interested in the Neck Hunting material.

Calvin grabs the "Head Hunting" ingredients one by one and checks the condition, turning the beard face into a smile.

"Funny... Funny... Fire Dragon too, but I can blacksmith with advanced monsters... I can't stand being a blacksmith!

Gahaha, Calvin laughs with great laughter. The souvenir liquor brought in by Reurus was in a good mood, and his eyes turned to Reurus.

"So, what do we make?

For Calvin, "Dragon Slasher" was a masterpiece, but it was worth the swing of his arm when he could use advanced monster materials.

Happiness as a blacksmith is unmatched if you have forged a gem that seems to go beyond "Dragon Slash" in a different direction from "Dragon Slash".

In response to Calvin's question, Reurus silenced for a while before answering.

"The sword... I wonder. When it comes to big guys, it's enough to have Dragon Slash, but it's hard when it comes to small people."

If you can't win using Dragon Slash, you can't help it. I'm so in love with you that I think I'll do it together. But if you say luxury, it's “too long” in Dragon Slash when you dive into your pocket.

I don't know what would happen if Reurus had a higher skill, but there is no talent that can quickly crush the problem. I don't know how many years it will take to acquire the skills.

Then we will have to “adjust” the way we fight with the length of the weapon, not the skill.

The dagger made by the dwarf is not bad, but the sword is short and far inferior to the Dragon Slash. Besides, if you shake it with all your strength using "Caloric Release", it will compress and fold in a few minutes. Using Sarah's abilities to use her flame magic can cause her to fail in one shot.

Of course, I want to keep using the Dragon Slash, but even with the same monster in the sheath, it becomes excessive power. However, if an opponent with speed like "neck hunting" ambushed me, I could be pushed into a corner because I couldn't pull out my sheath aggressively.

(There are more opportunities to fight against humans.....)

It would be good to use "Caloric Release" and punish it with a gorilla with high physical ability, but if you don't clean it up, the breadth of the weapon can be disadvantageous.

Quicker than Dragon Slash, it's easier to arrange it so that even if the opponent moves faster, they can respond immediately. In addition, as a realus, I wanted a weapon as long as the one-bladed sword that I used when I was an adventurer, in the middle of the Dragon Slasher and Dagger.

"Hmm... do you have any other hope?

"Do you want strength that I can shake with all my might? I'll leave the rest to my grandmother. It was the same during the Dragon Slash, but it will definitely make it a satisfactory weapon."

"... won't you tell me?"

When making the Dragon Slash, Calvin left everything else to Calvin, with a shape similar to that of the broken Dominic's Great Sword and hoping to use the fragments of the broken Great Sword.

As a result, the Dragon Slasher was born, and I trust Calvin will not be a complaining weapon if he leaves it to me as a revus.

Calvin smiled as if he felt the trust of Reurus, but as a blacksmith, he made a serious expression and dropped his gaze on the nails of the "neck hunter".

"However, because this is a material I've never used before... so was the Fire Dragon material, but I don't care because I've used the Dragon material before. If we treat him the same way as the Fire Dragon material, it might not be a masterpiece."

"... I mean?

"It took me a while. It's also the best way to maximize the performance of the material, but it's also compatible with other materials... Fire Dragon nails and scales were easy to handle, but this one smelled like a curve anyway."

The object was Calvin who tapped the nails of the "neck hunting" with a metal claw, but he raised his eyebrows when he heard the sound coming back.

"Hard is hard, but less sticky... it's a hard category to handle as a material. Instead, I feel like I could make an interesting monkey if I used it well... it's on fire."

Looks like the craftsman's soul is on fire. I thought Sarah might need her help making the Dragon Slash, but it looks like we could start with a survey on the materials for the Head Hunting.

"What about furs and bones? Can you use it for anything?

"I don't know... as for advanced monsters, they're not that strong... and even if they're used for armor, they won't be better than what you're using?

"I see....."

Apparently, only the nails were superior in the "neck hunting" material. Unfortunately, Reus turned to the crossbow.

"Your... uh, crossbow? How's it going with you?

It was used by Keith and the others during the ambush, but it had the power to penetrate the armor worn by Reurus. If mass production is possible, we can raise the level of combat power just by giving it to the adventurers of the abandoned city of Laval.

The feeling that Reurus actually “experienced” had the potential to be punished if only the lower-level monster could hit the emergency. If you become an intermediate or higher monster, you will not die in one shot, and you will still be able to cut it off as Meer showed you.

"This guy....."

Calvin, who was questioned by Reurus, somehow frowned in a mood. And I thought I had the crossbow in my hand, and my eyes narrowed and my nose snapped.

"I don't know which one made it, but it's a big deal. He pulled out his armor, didn't he? The power, the range, the precision to hit the target... the structure is simple, and it will be easy to manufacture and repair. I admit it."

Calvin's reputation is high, despite his disgruntled expression. At least that sounded like Reurus, but then why does Calvin look upset?

"The 'Enhanced' 'Magic Letter' is engraved to increase robustness, but it won't break easily without it. Shooting seems difficult, but once we have all these weapons, we can modify them."

"... you seem dissatisfied with that."

Not knowing what Calvin was dissatisfied with, Reurus ran into a question. In Calvin's tone, it sounded like there were few holes in the operation.

"When I see the structure, if I pull this trigger, the arrows will fly, right? It seems to be effective if anyone can use it... but I don't like“ that ”."

I'm sure Reurus's questions were conveyed. Calvin scratches his head roughly and sighs.

"You mean as a craftsman... if you want to make it out of nowhere. On the contrary, it is a substitute that even amateurs can make if they understand the structure. So even amateurs can endure practicality."

"It's convenient... what kind of words do you want to clean up?

"I really don't want to clean up. When it comes to what I hate, I don't like the fact that this guy is still developmental. The structure will be complicated, but with more strings, we can shoot more arrows, we can shoot more shots... and then we can fly things other than arrows."

That's how Reurus stared at the crossbow. If that's what Calvin thinks, I'm sure it is.

"For me, you're going to have to use“ technology ”, and I'm going to be told... that you're hard head."

From someone as skilled as Calvin, it's powerful and has a range that can be easily made. However, if we proceed with the research, we can quickly see the form of development.

You don't have to master it like a bow, just aim and pull the trigger and the arrow will fly.

Producing superior weapons and armor comes from a living Calvin, so weapons that can be produced in large quantities and are highly effective may run counter to cowardice.

"... you can see that with just a little look."

Therefore, Reurus did not touch deeply and slightly diverted the topic. Then Calvin looks more and more disgusting.

"It would be just carelessness not to know because I hate it. Besides, I'm sure he's only allowed in certain situations."

If there is something good about it, it seems to be a stance to try to understand it well. And from Calvin's point of view, there seems to be a drawback.

"First, load the arrows. Besides, it seems normal to accidentally pull the trigger and your finger falls off with a string. Even if it's still pretty powerful, it's not always“ constant ”. It's a weapon you can't beat if you scratch your feet."

Calvin starts looking at the details of the crossbow to see if he's interested in it while he's talking.

"If humans are the opponent, they're going to be quite effective, but if monsters are the opponent... and the range is going to be pretty good, there's nothing we can do about it if we get hit by magic from a long distance. Well, this is something you can say in any situation, regardless of the weapon."

(That's a weakness... right. Extremely speaking, the neck hunter will move faster than the arrow, the vanilla won't penetrate the scale, and the slime will melt the arrow before shooting through the nucleus. "Castle Collapse" won't penetrate that soft skin.)

If you line up advanced monsters for comparison, most weapons will not work.

But in this world where Reurus lives, there are things as irrational as monsters and magic. Crossbows may also be a useful weapon, but even Reurus can only cut them out in daytime without any problems.

Even if you are targeted with ten or twenty arrows, you can avoid them and cut them off. Even without the use of "calorific release", the reuse is also trained to the extent that it is possible.

Still, it will work for enemies up to “some degree” if we run them all together. You may need to be careful how you handle it, but you may want to consult Natalia.

"If the power is only constant, let's make it huge? Then you can change the arrow and use it according to the time. How about flying huge arrows that are so hard to cut off, or if you think you've avoided them, the arrows explode and blow up?

"Hmm... if I put it in a high place, I might be able to drop some monsters flying in the sky. It's out of my league, but you might want to try something else."

Although she doesn't like it, Calvin keeps on eating improvements and suggestions for improvement.

For this reason, it was an unusual day of rest for a revulsion, rather than a sassy day.
