"Come on, come on! The best seller right now is this silver dagger! It works for the Reis system, too! I recommend it to beginners because it's easy to use!
Ledo and Cece walk side by side on the boulevard. Cece stared slightly at the guild card, a testament to the adventurer, which was given to him by registering as an adventurer.
The smell of the tide in the sea breeze of this city facing the sea sparked Cece's heart extra. To the admiring adventurer...... I could be.
That was delightful for Cece.
"Brother there! Look at this guy! It's that Madilla Workshop short sword! Easy to use, cheap and perfect for adventurers!
Just because it was a city with many adventurers, there were musketeers and item shops for adventurers on the street. The caller standing on the table is shouting out loud there.
"Can't you do all that, too?
I looked up at Ledo's face as Cece peered.
"I can't. It is true that the silver dagger is valid for the demons of the Leith system...... i.e. evil spiritual system with no entity. However... I'm not saying that there are no dungeons or requests for Reis to leave, but there are few. Buying for such a small target is... bad. Otherwise - if you can't have magicians, priests, etc. for a party, you shouldn't be challenging such requests or dungeons in the first place."
"Uh, yes, indeed."
"And short swords aren't bad. But it's still dangerous if there's nothing to make up for the lack of reach, only as a priority to take it around. If you don't have any experience swinging a weapon, you're in for a choice. If it's a sheath, it's better to have a hand axe or an axe that's used to using the same reach."
"I see... it's hard to choose a weapon"
Cece sighed when she saw the newbie-looking adventurers who were caught by those calls and bought daggers and short swords.
"Well, I can't help it. The merchants are also responsible. Well, we'll talk about it another time. All right, this way."
That's what Redo says, going from the boulevard into the narrow alley.
"Is there a store over here?
"There's no store. In the first place, you don't have the money, but you're wrong to buy it in such a first-class shop."
'Cause it's a big shop over there, and you don't sell weird stuff. "
"The quality will be good, but on top of the high cost of it, the first service is not good for shops with a lot of customers. Especially since there's so many new adventurers to sweep and throw away."
"So where do you buy it?
"Well, shut up and follow me."
The end of the narrow alley followed a street lined with all the buildings with chimneys. Black smoke is rising from each chimney, and the walls of the building are blackened. Not very much, but it didn't seem to Cece that there was a place like this where we could get weapons.
"This is a place called [Black Iron Street]. It was originally Dwarf Street, but now it's inhabited by blacksmiths and metallurgists alike."
"Blacksmith...... Ah! That means you get a weapon made! Wow... sounds like an adventurer..."
Cece, who was a little disappointed to be here on this street, took away the glow of her eyes. I can have my own weapon built. That was an essential element for the adventurer that Cece admired.
"Asshole. That kind of thing happens when you can afford more money and get along with a blacksmith. I don't need anything like that. Mass production is enough."
Redo put Cece's head on. Somehow, because Cece's head is at just the right height, I can stick my hands out.
"Uh, but the master's weapon isn't mass produced, is it?"
What Cece stares at is a two-wielded sword hanging from the left and right of Ledo's hips.
Red song sword on blue dagger.
"I'm sorry... well, here it is... a necessary expense"
I noticed that my explanation was inconsistent, Redo. As for this weapon, I had no choice but to make large pieces because I didn't have the right mass product for me, which is a special profession called Magic Swordsman.
"I might even have a day to do that!
"Think about surviving that day and until you do it first."
"... Indeed"
"Look, here it is"
It was one blacksmith who arrived in conversation. There are no signs or anything out there, but Ledo opens the door to his house and walks slightly inside.
"Hey Tarka. Is he alive?
"I managed to live, Redo. Hmm? You just did that sword maintenance the other day, didn't you?
As Sheath peeks inside, a variety of weapons and ores are cluttered from the entrance to across the room. There was a workbench in the back and the fire furnace was burning bright red.
I can hear the smell of burnt iron, the sound of fire and the sound of striking iron.
There was one woman sitting on the workbench. He wraps a bandana around his head and hammers bright red iron with a ball-like sweat on his forehead because of the near fire.
"Um, hello..."
"Whoa, whoa... that Redo... with kids?
The woman who noticed the presence of Cece - Tarka stopped her hand and raised her face.
His face blackened with ash was even and his red eyes were impressive. Ledo assumed that washing his face and applying makeup would make him look beautiful, but I thought it would be nice to have this elegance or something.
Style is good, and I like the fact that I don't want to bluff around a bit.
I wish I was a little younger too... And Redo is a tsunami.
"You're not my kid. A runaway adventurer."
"It's my apprentice Cece!
"Apprentice? That bastard Redo who drank me? Haha, no, that's an interesting joke."
"Bastards would be superfluous."
"I knew you weren't wrong. Catch such a young boy..."
"... I don't care about that. Show me the weapon your apprentice struck."
Tarka silently pointed back to see if the words were conjectured.
"Take a proper look. Luge, show him!
When Tarka said that to the room next to the workshop, a girl in an apron popped up.
"Yes!
Big red eyes on long, red hair. Although small, the muscles attached quite a bit, probably quite a few, Ledo could tell waving the hammer.
"Ah, hello, Mr. Redo"
The girl with her head down with a dust - Luge looked at the sheath standing beside it wondering. The face gradually turns into a look of surprise and disappointment.
"... I can't believe you had a child..."
"Why does that happen? Well, it's like a disciple."
"Bo Bo, I'm Cece! I'm from the village of Mirka!
Cece said that nervously and turned her smile to Luge. You don't like this woman? And it was Ledo I worry about.
"I'm Mr. Tarka's apprentice and I'm a luge in training at this workshop. Here, then."
That's what Luge goes to the back.
The back was in a warehouse, with lots of weapons. At that corner, there is a line of objects that look a little less dressed than other weapons.
"Uh, it's all around here,"
Luge pointed to that corner a little shy.
"Hmm. It's not bad to have just a stone Talca apprentice. It looks a little bit like that."
Ledo takes the sword or axe and tries to shake it gently. The part that should be straight is straight, so I don't have any difficulty handling it, but I think it still lacks sophistication.
"Did Luge make all this?
"Yeah. At first it looked like an imitation. Mr. Tarka told me a lot when I could hit him to some extent."
"You're the only apprentice?
"I was full, but we all quit. Mr. Tulka, because it's tough."
Cece and Luge were having a conversation while Redo was looking at the weapon. We were both in the same early teens. We got along quickly, but
"Hey, Cece. It's your weapon. What do you do without choosing?"
That's what I saw Redo call it.
"It was! Um, so the weapon... what's good?
"That's a hand axe or a wax. You're used to it, aren't you? That's fine at first."
"I see."
Luge heard it and took out a single hand axe.
"So how's it going around here? This is [Enchanted Hyperdragon Corn Handax]"
When Luge looked happy, he gave it to Cece with a long name. At first glance, it just looks like a hand axe, but Cece felt there must be some awesome power in it.
"Luge should apprentice his master in his naming sense..."
Even if Redo looks at it with appraisal eyes, it just seems like an axe.
"So what about this [Fire Hell Murder] or something? This pattern looks like a blaze."
"Heh I see... I do feel some fire power..."
"There's no way..."
Redo gave up and decided to look for him himself. None of this is bad. I can do it... yeah?
"Luge, is that the one you made too?
What Redo pointed to was a weapon that he kept hidden on the upper shelf.
At first glance, it's a hand axe, but it has an axe blade on the right side of the pattern, but it also has a blade like a single-blade sword on the left side, and that one extends toward the lower handles. If you look closely, there is some mechanism at the tip of the pattern and at the base of the blade. Apparently it's not just a hand axe.
"Oh, that's... it's a failure..."
Ledo took it out by the side of the leaning luge.
About the size of a short sword. I wondered if the center of gravity or weight was different from the common hand axe for a lot of blades, and when I shook it, it wasn't.
Above all, it was somewhat more sophisticated than other weapons, on top of being easier to swing.
"Cece. Shake it."
That's what Redo says and gives Cece that hand axe.
"Oh, this is easy to swing. It looks nasty, but it's an axe."
"Right. Against appearance, the center of gravity is better placed."
"Oh, thank you... but I can't do that... because I've been playing too much for Mr. Tarka... I actually used metal that wasn't for sneak practice. So it's lighter than it looks. And then I turned on the secret function... and it deformed."
That said, when I receive that hand axe, I wave it as Luge grips the slightly outstretched part that was in the handle portion of the pattern.
Along with the metal sound of Gashan, the axe part lowered towards the handle of the pattern, instead a single blade that was on the opposite side turned centrifugally around the tip of the pattern and fixed at the tip of the pattern.
The axe section and the extended blade made the right side of the pattern a complete blade, which was a slightly distorted shape but a single-bladed sword about the size of a long sword.
"It's a weapon that can be both an axe and a sword..."
"I see. This is certainly a failure. It's not practical... But this feels the most luxurious. I guess it was too soon to get it all out yet."
"I'll do this!
She was staring at that hand axe as Cece sparkled her eyes.
I don't know what it feels like. Redo is also a man, albeit already 35 years old.
I've never heard of a weapon that deforms, but I understand what it's like to be attracted to it.
It's not practical - not necessarily, but it's definitely a kiwa thing. You call that an axe sword? Well, if you don't use the deformation feature, it's just a hand axe, and the quality of the object itself is good. It is huge that the reach stretches simply to be able to spike on more versatility.
Durable if you are concerned...... on the contrary, it would require regular maintenance due to its function. It's good to have a habit of going to a blacksmith, and it's not bad to have anything to do with Luge that you might name from now on.
In the first place, I brought him here to get to know that kind of rushing blacksmith apprentice.
With that in mind, Redo agreed with Cece.
"Yeah, I think I'd like that too, but if you're using good metal, it's gonna be a lot of money."
"... right"
"But... it's a failure..."
"In value terms, maybe 20,000 dims or more for this feature"
"To!?
Cece and Luge join their voices in surprise at Redo's standout.
"You guys... be more aware of the value of your things"
"... because I only have 500 dims... give up"
Redo sighed when he saw a shombolished sheath about whether this was still the case.
"Ha... I'll lend you money without interest"
"Is it true! Then I'll buy this!
"Oh, um... that's 500 dims fine..."
"Uh, no, but"
"If that's what Luge says, that's fine. Anyway, if you're just going to sleep there, you should use it."
Talka showed up and said yes to Luge. Apparently, I was listening to the conversation the whole time.
"Mr. Tarka! But..."
"We need proper maintenance, right? It's such a complicated mechanism. I don't know. Well, it's a good study of creating customers."
"Yes!
Thus, Cece acquired the weapon at a broken price, as Ledo had expected.
Blacksmiths generally have apprentices. And many of the weapons the disciple struck are not for sale just to say they don't look good. If you buy that, blacksmiths will love it, and this one can procure weapons for cheap.
I brought him in anticipation of that...... Ledo thinks that the weapon has become a little kiwi but well this would be on the edge as well.
Cece gives him 500 dims and teaches him how to use the deformation function from Luge.
In the meantime, besides, Tarka prepared a belt and light iron leg armor that fitted the axe sword behind the back of the waist to adjust the size of the sheath. not half trousers, but long trousers, and footwear reinforced with metal plates are also available
"That's good for the lower body for now. The upper body... if you bring it again, I'll adjust the (...) metropolitan (...) degrees"
Ledo praised in his heart that he knew perfectly well the boulder Tulka around providing him with protective equipment for his lower body first.
As for the upper body, I'll have to have it ready when the money comes in. If it's a demon that rookie adventurers often deal with, you can go the least with just the leg armor, but it's still tough when it's more than that.
"But are you so good to have it?
"Investing in the future. It's that Redo apprentice, you should come out and give it back."
"Okay! Thanks!
Waving happily, Sheath, who left the Talca workshop, suggested this to Ledo with a candle face.
"Then take the request quickly -"
"No."
"Yep..."
Redo, who sighed deliberately, returns to the way he came again.
