A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 470: I want to be strong, but before that,
Slightly back in time, when Eliza and Natalia started talking.
Reurus, together with Sarah and Neddy, left home with Vaniel, who disappeared last night, to meet him and receive a cloth wrap. It is literally a substitute large enough that Reurus has to "hold” it.
"Reurus, this is what we talked about last night."
That's how he unwrapped the cloth he received and checked the contents. Reus leaned his neck small.
"My nails, my scales, these are... my teeth?
"Hmm. It's a rare substitute among dragon species materials, rather than my... The claws and scales may break or peel during the battle, but the fangs are basically unavailable without killing the dragon species."
There were more in the cloth wrapper than what was once received from Vaniel. There were around twenty scales, two nails, and one tooth.
"Fang... eh? If you're human, it's like you lost a tooth, right? You all right? You all right?
"What, you don't have to worry about it because it'll grow new in a while... but it hurt a bit"
That's how Vannille strokes her jaw in human form. Fangs nearly one meter in size are likely to be sturdy and blunt.
"It's going to grow in a few moments... so if you pull your fangs out, you can make a lot of good weapons?
Sarah, who was listening next to Reurus, asked, sparkling her expression without saying that she had come up with a good idea.
"In that case, I don't think it would be a great material because the newly grown fangs don't contain much magic.
Joking - perhaps joking Sarah's words, Vanier waves her hand to deny them. Reus lightly laughed at Sarah's words and then tightened his expression, lowering his head toward Vanier.
"I owe you..." I did. Let me thank you. "
"I'll look forward to it when you return it."
In Reurus' words, Vanille lifted the edge of her mouth and laughed. After hearing the words, Reus raised his head and looked around to talk to Calvin and the others.
"Vanille's husband's materials...?
Turning around, there was a group of dwarves headed by Calvin. Nearly thirty dwarves are staring at the cloth wrapper held by Reurus, wondering when he was listening.
"Fire Dragon... it is also the material of the Fire Dragon that has been alive for more than hundreds of years..."
"Scales, nails, and teeth....."
"I rarely get it... no, I don't even think I'll touch it while I'm alive..."
Hidden words are murmured, and it eventually turns into rough noise. The eyes of the dwarves turned dangerous because of their minds, staring at the cloth wrapper of Reus as if a hungry beast were targeting flesh and blood.
(Ah... this is a bad one, yeah)
Reurus was willing to ask Calvin and the others, but it is a material that might never be touched from the dwarf. It is also a fresh and powerful material that was "just taken” from the vanilla last night.
"... hey, Reurus. You have such fine materials that you want us to do something about it, right? You know what?
Calvin asks if he has dealt with Vanille's materials before, or if he looks relatively cool. After hearing about it, Reurus secretly relieved himself that the opponents of "habitual driving” who were about to go after the battle in the town of Lemona seemed to be better off than dwarves.
Of course, I won't slash it. After using "Caloric Liberation", the demon Rakusha only ran away from the dwarves who looked like they were about to escape barefoot. Instead, there was a possibility that we would not be able to escape unless we used "Caloric Release".
"I want weapons and armor beyond the swords you've made before... to make them."
I didn't think it would be good if I didn't respond quickly, and Reurus honestly said what he wanted.
The Dwarves are helping us develop Baron Amondola's territory, but we have permission from Natalia to make weapons and armor this time. The township was progressing at an unexpected speed, so it was judged that there was no problem even if the dwarves took some of their hands.

And silence and killing filled the surroundings.
Each dwarf starts to gaze at those around him, subtly changing his standing position, and gripping his fists. Only Meer, who was among the dwarves, raised her hands with a bitter smile and quietly walked away from the scene.
"... I'm the best of them all. I mean, should I take it this time, too?
In such a chaotic situation, Calvin took the lead. It was Calvin who forged the Dragon Slash, but this time he declared that he should take it.
"Hey, Temee! Calvin Theme! If you took it last time, give it up this time!
"Yes! Grow up and set it up in the town moat!
"I'm next! Let me do it!
It was a situation where the fight was about to begin. In particular, Calvin is likely to be targeted first.
"Ha ha ha, I love these people's habits."
Vanille laughed with joy as she watched the dwarves. Even after I received the dwarves at the Veos volcano, I occasionally went out for a drink, but I think Vanier and I might have a good wavelength.
(I don't know... but even if I only told Calvin's grandmother to blacksmith it, I was definitely about to be beaten up by everyone else along the way...)
As a Realus, I understand the rarity of Vanille's materials, but the dwarfs are intriguing.
"... ah! I have a bad feeling about this!
Suddenly Sarah shouted. Seeking to leave the scene without asking questions, as if you had predicted a bad future.
"I won't let you escape, Sara-sama!
"Last time there was a human army nearby, so there was a time limit, but not this time!
"Until I'm satisfied! Until you're done! Let me blacksmith with the flames of the Spirit!
And I was surrounded. Until then, the swallowing of the sword blocks Sarah's path with a false collaboration and attempts to capture Sarah like a herd of zombies.
"Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaa! I don't want it anymore!? Last time I saw a fire by the furnace! If you can't get away from the furnace, who would have thought Reurus could bake you meat!? Reurus will starve to death!
"No, I'm not dying."
Sarah screamed with tearful eyes as she ran away from the dwarf's hands with agile movements. Reurus calmly buzzes, but it hasn't reached Sarah.
"Hahaha... hahahahaha!
Vaniel's laughter grew stronger as she saw Sarah running away. As soon as she laughed, Vaniel stopped laughing as if she had noticed something.
"Fu, um... forging with the flames of spirits. Then, if you use Spirit water, you'll get even better results...?
Standing next to Reurus, Vanier murmured as she gazed at Neddy, who was watching in silence.
…………

Another silence fills the scene. The dwarfs' gaze was directed at Neddy at once, and Neddy shuddered his shoulders and hid behind Reurus.
"The water used for blacksmithing is also the water produced by the Spirit...."
"Water attribute... the fire in the furnace is like Sarah, the water is like Neddy..."
"I could see a new frontier....."
It seems there was something that touched the Dwarves' strings. While each of them turned to Neddy, Reurus held his fist.
"Bring in my client, but if you want to scare Neddy, I'll join the brawl, you bastards."
"Neddy and I treat each other differently!? Huh? Help me too, Reuruuuu!?
With that said, Sarah jumped to the rear of the Reurus and landed on her shoulders with excess momentum. Suddenly, the feathered Reurus reached out to Sarah's sides and lifted her to the ground.
"No, I'm sorry. I should have asked Sarah for help… I need your help with my new weapons and defenses. You think you can help me?
Please, Reurus lowers his head. Then Sarah glanced at Neddy for some reason, then stretched her chest with her hands on her hips.
"Hmm! I can't help it anymore, Reurus! Am I the spirit of Reurus? If you ask me, I'll put my best effort into it!
…………
Neddy stares at Sarah with her chest full of pride. But I immediately picked the clothes of Reurus and pulled a little.
"... should I help Neddy too?
"Ah, ahh... if Neddy's good, I'd appreciate your help."
Well, good luck.
That's what Neddy said and smiled little. The Reurus who saw it opened his eyes slightly from the surprise - he quickly broke his face.
"So, Calvin's grandmother, I know how you feel, but please do. I want to reuse my worn sword and sheath in a different way, and there seems to be a lot to be done, right?
I'm not familiar with blacksmith, but Calvin scratches his head with his cluttered hands.
"Gu... I'd like to make it all by myself if possible, but can't the others fit in?"
Of course, you son of a bitch.
"I can't fill a dent if I want to be alone."
Calvin and his colleagues started to give their opinions on how they calmed down after so much noise.
In the first place, the current priority was to develop Baron Amondola's territory, so there was no furnace where Calvin and the others could blacksmith satisfactorily. We built a simple furnace so that we could repair tools and tools, but we needed a proper furnace to build up the “big guy".
We'll either build a full-scale workshop in time, or where we'll build it. Natalia will also need to be consulted around here. With the help of Sarah and Neddy, the shape of the furnace needs to be changed to some extent.
As if blacksmithing was special to Dwarves, Calvin and Neddy started talking together. Reurus sighs relieved when he sees it coming together.
"Mr. Reurus... I need to talk to you for a minute, okay?
And Meer, who was supposed to be watching Calvin and the others laughing bitterly, turned her expression into something serious and stopped her.
