Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Episode 16 Mithril Gathering

Side: Roséne

Two years have passed since I resumed gathering materials, and I was drinking tea with the saints of today at the cathedral in the sacred capital of the Holy See.

Originally, if I had this time, I could defeat a hundred golems, but why are you doing this...?

In exchange for free use of the Hindu dungeon, they occasionally asked me to come to see them, so I had no choice.

If it weren't for the fact that some knightly captain and his wife had crushed a dungeon in the Empire that produced a lot of missiles, this wouldn't have happened...

How's it going, Mithril?

Today's saints are sometimes cousins of their mothers, and they don't like honesty because they look and feel exactly like their mothers.

But because it's for Mithril, I can't ignore it.

“Not yet. I think I'll be here for another year.”

"You're just building a ship, aren't you? I wonder if you need that much for just one ship?"

Otherwise, if it's just iron, I can just buy a mine somewhere.

"... are you going to build a ship in Mithril?"

For the first time, a vampire knight, always hiding behind a saintly lady, opened his mouth.

Fufufu. Looks like you're worried.

"Do you know? The pure mithril absorbs magic power and changes according to its attributes."

"... I've lived a thousand years and never heard of it"

"Me, too."

Well, you can't get Mithrill in the Elves.

"How did you know?"

"The dwarves at your father's." When my father gave me a lot of Mithril to study, I noticed impurities. "

"Dwarfs... If they hadn't been with the humans, the Demon King's army wouldn't have failed that far."

I guess so.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm glad the Dwarves are here.

"Hey. So, what do you do with pure mithrils?" Are you pouring Rosé's magic power? "

That's right. If I use my magic power, it'll turn into a hard metal that protects against external attacks like a barrier.

Initially, I was thinking of processing the Red Dragon Scales and placing them on the bottom of the ship, but my barrier should be harder and longer-lasting than the Dragon Scales.

It's certainly the right material for the ship.

Seems like it would be good as armor.

“Yes. If we can match the barrier, we might be able to withstand the Destroyer's attack a few times.”

To tell the truth, I've already tried it on Lou's mom.

The result was that the Destroyer was able to withstand magic only three times.

”Finally... I wonder if I've found any hope of being able to deal with that woman”

"It's not as much of a hope." I don't think I can afford to make full-body armor even if it takes two years to coat the bottom of the ship with a thin coat. "

I think I can do it with a little paint, but I wonder if I can prevent the destruction magic once.

"That's right..."

"I'll tell you again and again, but I'll help you too." The Destroyer has a bit of a grudge. You don't have to worry about borrowing. "

"Even if you don't care, it won't work around you." The truth is, even if he doesn't know that I'm having a cup of tea with you, he might even preach to Nora. ”

The kingdom is fine, but the Empire is a subtle distance from the recent past, and it would be troublesome if they used it politically.

"Don't say such sad things. We owe your father and your mother so much if you ask for a loan.”

I'd appreciate it if you could just entertain me like this once every two months.

"I'll do as much as I can about this." You can stay here every day instead of once every two months. "

That would be the problem. Damn, this boxed girl has a hard time dealing with tea.

"It takes half a day to walk from here to the layer of misril golem." I don't want to be inefficient every day. "

”Well, but... that's why it's so bad for me to be caged in a dungeon for two months”

"This body is young, so it's okay." Besides, from today, there will be help coming, so the inefficiency will be eliminated somewhat. "

"Fufufu. That's right. When's the first time you've met again?"

"It's been six months."

Because I'm tied up by contract, I have to go to see him once every six months, even if I'm forced to.

I've signed a really tedious contract.

There you two are.

"Oh, if you tell a rumor." I'll show you here right away. "

I understand.

"It's been six months... I wonder if Nelia looks like her mother, too?"

"It looks exactly like you. My personality... I can't say anything about it."

Nelia's original personality as an Incinerator makes her indescribable.

Really? Well then, I'll try to determine the personality directly.

"Try that." Maybe... I don't think they're alike. "

"Who do you think you're not like?"

I'm here at last. I just... I can't wait.

"Wow. You really don't look like your mother." Are you Neria-chan? "

"Ah, yes. Nice to meet you, Neelia Murdeen."

"Fufufu. So, you must be the lover of the rumors?"

"Um, uh... yes! It's Keel!"

"Are you more like your mother than your father?"

"Do you know my father and mother?"

"For your father." I've only seen you a little bit before. "

"That's right." Next time, I'll ask him about it. ”

"I don't know if you remember me. Here, take a seat."

Then, I finished the tea party with the saintly lady so quickly that the three of them dived into the dungeon.

I can't believe the day is really coming when you and your sister will become adventurers.

That's right. Even if you make a mistake, don't burn Mithril, right?

“That's okay. Now Neria can completely control her magic."

"Thanks to your advice and the staff your father gave you,"

Neria proudly showed me a staff of about 20 centimeters.

I could feel the magic power of Keel from the magic stone attached to the handle.

It looks like you created a wand using Keel's Magic Stone.

"I still think it's amazing enough." "Hey, Sister Rose."

"It's disgusting to be called onee-san by you..." Well, I think it's amazing. In the first place, I thought it would be impossible for you to start a fire without rampaging. "

I was training Neria's magic powers to use as much magic as I could when I ran out.

"Ehhh. Only oneesan believes in me." I thought I'd do my best! "

I'm sorry about that.

I can't help it. That's what I thought.

But I was glad that onee-chan relied on me like this.

"What are you talking about..." Who was it who cried to follow me a year ago? "

I don't know how hard it was to rip off Neria back then.

"Well, that's how it happened..."

I wish I had gone to magic school quietly.

Twelve to sixteen is not the most enjoyable time of your life.

"To waste it on purpose in a dim dungeon..."

"I don't have anything to learn at a magic school." You have more to learn with your sister than with me. "

“Yes, it's your life, so you can do whatever you want.”

Now that I'm here, I don't have a choice.

You hunt a lot of golems.

"Nevertheless, you've... changed a lot." I feel like I was a little more... grown-up? "

"I'm like a child now!?"

I told you to go far away, but you didn't have to bother to say it again.

"I think so. It was even colder before." She looked at Keel like she was looking at a child. "

"Oh, sure, if you ask me!" Nelia... how long has she been like that? "

"Now, come on...? Because I don't remember much..."

"Isn't it just because you went to school?" I feel that the atmosphere has changed since I was looking after Keel. "

Huh? Am I the reason?

"It's nothing... it's not just Keel." Of course, I understand that Keel is the main cause, but I think there is also a lot of influence from onee-chan. "

Me? Did I do something?

"I... don't have as many memories of my previous life as onee-chan." I can't even remember who I was or what my personality was. ”

"It seems that the second generation and later reincarnators will be like that." But how does that lead to me? "

"I don't want to jump to conclusions because I'm free anyway."

That's true, too.

I decided to shut up and listen to Neria's arguments.

"So, when I was little, I didn't have a personality that was properly formed, but I had a knowledge that was close to adulthood, and I didn't have to hide such an adult part, so... I think my personality was pulled by the adult side."

So Neria became a child because I was gone?

"I feel that way. Especially since I started elementary school, I stopped talking to my sister, and I started to be with my amazing child, Keel, and gradually became this personality."

As a result, I disappeared and was dyed in the color of Keel.

It's hardly Keel's fault.

Huh? Did Neria get dyed in my color?

"I-It's dyed..." Don't say such embarrassing things! "

Well, whatever your personality, I hope you enjoy it.

"Even that kind of sister is quite different, isn't she?"

I've been like this for years.

I don't think it's going to change the character that has solidified over the millennia.

"I see? Well, now that Rosé is fine, she's strong enough to camp for days." I can't even think about it in the old days! "

"If I can do anything else, I don't want to sleep in such a dirty dungeon, I want to spend a relaxing time at home."

I'm just out there, driven as needed.

"Is that really the case?" Are you Auro-kun? "

"Maybe... you stopped by Nora?"

Of course. We're going to go through the neighborhood, so I'm going to go see Nora.

Yeah.

"Fufufu. You were the type of guy called Onee-chan." Muscular and muscular, skin is sunburned and pitch black. It's the exact opposite of a pale, skinny sister. "

"I-I don't really like the way I look..." Well, that's not how it is with Auro yet! "

I regretted what I said after the blood came up on my head and I left it to my emotions to talk about.

"Heh... it's (...), right?"

"It's so noisy." I made a mistake. "

In this way, I have no chance of winning. We have no choice but to end this conversation as soon as possible.

"I see. I promised you two to travel to the sea?"

”Oh, that's... I promised I'd take you to the sea, but I didn't even say you two”

"Really? That's what Nora said."

"Nora...... remember when you leave."

"Ah, such a Nora onee-chan was very close to Dig-kun." Even though I asked myself, he didn't tell me. "

That's surprising. Since Nora is only interested in money, I was wondering if I would fall in love when I grow up.

”Next time... I'll ask Dig himself”

I've breathed into Nelia something she's never done before, so I'll definitely make her feel the same way.

"Fufufu, then tell me secretly."

I'll let you know if I feel like it.

Eh ~
