Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

Episode Five: Dungeon Preparation

The fourth grade began and a few days went by.

Finally, after school on the day that I was off tomorrow, I spoke to Frank and Hellman as soon as school was over.

"All right, you guys, meet me in my room as soon as you get ready to go home as promised."

"Yes, I get it!

"Hey, wait. Even though they say I'm ready, I don't have the tools necessary for an adventure.

"Oh, I was. Well, I'll get you some protective gear."

Speaking of which, that's what you originally promised.

I need to get my gear ready before I leave.

"Okay. Then I'll be there as soon as I get dressed."

I'll be right there.

"Yeah, I asked for it. See you later."

That said, we broke up and immediately assembled in my room.

"Hey, here we are!

"Sorry to bother you."

"Oh, here I come. Well, if you build a set of Frank's gear, build and remodel Hellman's gear, we'll get to the dungeon."

"Huh? Will you do my gear, too?

Hellman opened his eyes and asked back if my words were surprising.

"Yeah, 'cause it's tough to break into boulders with your gear as it is."

'Cause no matter what you think, you're worried about boulders when it's clothes that don't have shards of that defense and cheap swords that are going to break the other way if you attack demons.

"And tread? Did you just step over and say that?

"Yeah, but?

Is that it? Didn't I tell you?

Speaking of which, I may have forgotten to tell you what my real purpose is today because I slept in school recently.

"Yeah, but? No, I'm not! Oh, my God, how do we break through during the holidays!

Frank seems angry.

Well, because Frank would have planned to participate in it with a sense of play.

"Don't worry about that. Besides, I'm in a hurry, so I'm just going to build some gear. Frank and Hellman, watch out there!

I gave the order, pointing at the two of them without telling them whether or not to.

"Oh, wow."

"Yes!"

The two of them were careful what they were reflexively told.

"First of all, it's from protective equipment. Neither of you, it's not a tanky role, so heavy and hard armor doesn't fit... Oh, there was a good one."

That's what I took out... the fur of a demon that came out at the end of the last mass outbreak of demons and was instantly killed by Lou.

Looks like he would have been that strong if he'd fought normally, so you could expect this.

"Is that some kind of fur? It's not normal demon fur because it's about Leo, is it?

"Sort of. I don't even know his name. Maybe he was a stronger demon than a dragon."

"Oh, where the hell is such a demon...?

"Come on? Then, do you want to build skin armor? Yeah, I'll make mine too."

Me, all I've ever had was a cloak of armor.

I'm pretty sure the armor I'm going to build is going to be absolutely amazing, so I'll build mine too.

Well, actually, the cloak alone is so much more defensive.

With that in mind, I took out three demon stones and used creative magic.

It glowed as usual, its shape changed, and its black-skinned armor equipped the three of them.

"Oh, that's cool! Plus, it's very light! Let me take care of it until my grandson's generation!

No, armor is expendable, so I have trouble being treated with care.

"Shh, that's awesome..."

Frank was making sure he felt as he slapped his armor against Concon.

"Wait a minute. I'm going to find out about the armor I've made."

Well, it's time for your fun appraisal.

Demon King's Armor

Armor made from the fur of a demon that was once a demon king.

Very durable and repaired immediately even if broken.

It has great resistance to magic and reduces magic attacks to one-tenth.

Physical attack reduces power to one-fifth

1.5x all gear stats

Creator: Leons Muldeen

"Huh?"

Whoa, I accidentally spoke out for too much information.

What, this extra-dimensional armor.

Isn't that the best performance magic item I've ever built?

"What's up? Was that that awesome armor?

"It's not that level of awesome or anything...... Definitely the strongest protective gear ever."

Something more amazing than this is just enough to never take damage, right?

"The strongest? What's this all about?

"Actually..."

Then I gave you two the results of the appraisal.

"Huh? Can we have that armor?

"I have something like this..."

"Nothing... it's no big deal if you think about the trouble I'm going to cause you both"

Whoa, bossy, but I accidentally told the truth.

"Oh, hey... now you're telling me not to listen"

Apparently, Frank made it sound like it, and Frank immediately tried to question him.

I shouldn't, this needs to change the subject soon!

"Well, don't worry about the details. Besides, we have to do something about the two weapons."

"And weapons!?

"Mine again, too!?

"Yes, yes. Even if the defense is hard, we can't move on without attack."

Anyway, I'm going to focus on efficiency this time.

"First, shall we go from Frank's wand? I don't know what to do ~. Shelly's going to be mad that it's the wand of the god devil. Right...... make it a rod with length. The ingredients... Oh, this and this."

The Divine Devil's Wand is a birthday present for Shelly.

I have to make sure it's something special.

"This is a misrill...... This... what?

Frank was tilting his neck as he lifted the purple stone I had removed with both hands.

Well, you've never seen it.

Anyway, it's the only thing in the demon world.

"It's Behemoth's magic stone."

"Magic Stone Expansion? What's that?

"It's an organ that Behemoth uses to shoot magic, and by passing magic here, we can make it more powerful than normal magic. I don't know why it gets bigger, because I'm not an expert on demons."

According to Anna's information, most demons in the demonic realm use magic as the subject of their attacks, and it looks like most of them have this demon magnifying stone.

"Behemoth? Where did you take down such a demon?

"Come on? It's more creative than that. It!"

It took me a long time to explain it, so I listened and just built Frank's wand.

And what was done...

The Wand of the Booster

As its name suggests, a wand that increases demons

Ten times the magic of the owner.

Tenfold the power and potency of magic

I'll multiply the magic range by ten.

"Oh! That's cool."

There was about a meter from me, and Frank was unusual when he received a wand with a rounded purple demon magnifying stone.

More than happy.

"Right. I have no problems with my abilities."

It's going to multiply by a lot of abilities, and I wonder if it's any different from the Divine Devil's wand.

Well, if you look at just one point of power, you're no match for the Divine Devil's wand.

More than that, next!

"Next, Herman's sword. Yeah...... Herman, is that sword important?

Modify or build new the guy Hellman uses......

Given your abilities, I guess you should build a new one... I'm sure you have memories of the sword.

"No, it's not! I have always used it so I have an attachment, because this is for practice. My father tells me that when I'm alone, I'll buy you a good one in action."

Huh? Did you?

Then tell me quickly.

I always wondered how important the sword was because it seemed important to me.

"Really? Well, then, I think Herman has enough men to build a new sword in action."

"Is it true!? Thanks!

"Alright, then look for material that looks good on the sword"

Whatever it is, the hard objects that seem to be available for swords...... maybe misrills, dragon claws, chimeric fangs, or monster claws with no name.

Yeah...... which one?

"It's troublesome to choose, and you want to use it all? I'll make it the same size and weight as the one Hellman's using right now."

My creative magic can be done exactly as I imagine it, so it's so easy to adjust the weight and size.

"Thank you!

"So yes!

With the call, I used the materials as swords.

Yeah, I got a pretty cool sword.

They look and size the same as Herman's sword, but they have a completely different glow.

It turned out to be a shiny sword so that anyone could see, "Oh, this is an amazing sword".

"Shake it to try...... no! No trial!

While I gave the sword to Hellman, I used the appraisal to stop Hellman, who was rushing to give it a try.

"Huh? Ah, yes"

"I'll explain how to use it in a dungeon, so it's forbidden to use it indoors."

With that said, I made a sheath and gave it to him.

"Well, I can't believe you made such amazing stuff... thank you so much. Let it be our family heirloom. And for the rest of my life, I will work under Master Leo."

After looking at the sword in the sheath with majesty, Herman has lowered his head in tears.

"You don't have to go that far..."

"No, actually. Items made by Leo are noble family heirloom items. This armor is a national treasure."

Oh, yeah?

If you ask me, you do have all the magic items I make that are unlikely abilities.

"Well, you don't have to worry about it because I haven't worked so hard to build it. I'm going to the dungeon faster than that! We have to break through before school starts."

And we only have two days and a few hours, so we need to hurry.

"So you can't do this from now on. Where the hell is he gonna attack a dungeon in such a short period of time?"

"It's okay, because the only dungeon I'm going to be in is the thirtieth floor. Besides, we already have maps of all the hierarchies, so we can move on."

That's what I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna show you two a bunch of paper with a map of the dungeon.

"Huh? That's it, how come it hasn't been broken?

"That's because the boss on the last floor is unusually strong. Even so, it's a demon we can easily defeat."

Even on a level that normal adventurers can't defeat, these three can afford it.

"Really? So you're all right, then?

"Yeah. So grab on to me"

"Can you go with a metastasis?

"That's right. Actually, I've been running and dungeoning here during the night."

Every day, I started running right after school so I could move to two dungeons by today's day.

"Oh, that's why you've been sleeping in class lately"

"Master, you were rarely angry with your teacher"

Oh, the one where Dr. Leeds called me in and pissed me off.

I was pissed off for an hour after school......

I wanted to head to the dungeon soon. That was the best punishment for me.

"It takes some sacrifice to do the right thing."

"What's the big deal about breaking the dungeon? Didn't I originally say half the play or something?

"That's not true. This is war."

The war has already begun.

"What war..."

"You'll see. Well... I'm gonna get you both involved, but forgive me for that set of gear"

"Hey! I just heard a bad word."

Seriously, this time I was gonna say it in a small voice.

"Kee, it's my fault. Look, we both got caught."

I rushed to let the two of them grab it and then used the metastasis for the dungeon.
