I Became the Demon Lord and my Territory is an Uninhabited Island

Episode 209: When the Crossbow Is Completed

A few days later, Van brought a prototype of the crossbow. Wood processing is done by furniture apprentice Bart's apprentice, and the machine is Van.

"I made it according to Oda's blueprint. Is this OK?"

I have a partially modernized crossbow and try to get ready.

Hold the trigger part like a gun, hold the slightly longer and wider stock on your shoulders, and hold the left hand to stabilize.

The sight is looped over a frame through which an arrow passes, and a thin thread is stretched in the center so as to form a cross, and a weft thread stretches downward at regular intervals.

Then, in order to stretch the strings using the principle of leverage, the part made of iron at the bottom of the handle portion is raised, and the metal fittings pulls the strings, and when they stop, they let them lie down.

The rest is just shooting arrows ...

I go outside and create a clay wall because there is no proper target. And there, I decided to look into the sight and hit it.

The arrow flies beautifully, hits the center of the mud wall, quickly repeats the same operation as before, and when driving the second one, aim at the mud wall with the thread below the cross thread and shoot the first Sting a little over the.

"Well, no problem. First of all, there are five for each village, so please make about twenty."

"Oh, what's that?"

Van said, pointing to my crossbow.

"Because it is a prototype, I keep it here. So it is twenty."

"Ay, where is your toy?"

Van returned with a grin. What is a toy ... I don't need it ...

He returned to his office to write a report, retrieving the arrow stuck in the mud wall.

"It's amazing that crossbow. You can easily stretch the strings."

Urle-san was a little bit excited and gave me a crossbow.

"Oh, easy to hold and easy to hold"

With that said, I used the metal fittings to pull the strings and held the crossbow again.

"And it's easy to aim."

With that said, I tried to turn to me, so I made a big leap and hid behind a desk as I rolled.

"What happened suddenly?"

"I'm just going to say a word ... Never try to point the person at the strings, even if you haven't changed the arrow. If you're turned, turn your crossbow over here I don't know if you're a joke, but don't point it at anything except kill it ... "

He lowered his voice a little, and told him as if he was advising.

"I'm sorry too!"

"I want you to drop the crossbow."

"Yes!"

Listening to her reply, she showed her half out of the desk and confirmed that she wasn't holding a crossbow before getting up.

"Be careful next time. I didn't even say that I'm bad, but ... I'm so angry if I do it next time."

With only her eyes laughing and smiling, Urre-san apologized for standing upright.

"No, I just need to be careful next time. Next time ...?"

"Yes, yes!"

Well, don't do it. It is of utmost importance that security measures are firm.

I wrote a report and instructions for the crossbow and wanted to try it out a bit, so I went out with my crossbow before lunch.

Stretch the strings and create an [obsidian arrow] like a thin stake, create a 1-mm thick [iron plate] and inject it there.

HM……. Do not penetrate this shape. Probably a normal arrowhead will break it, it's thin. Well, isn't there any problem if it's about ordinary armor?

Another substance can be used to care for Mohs hardness, but this is the easiest to imagine.

With modern pulleys, there are difficulties in string pull strength and structure. Is this the limit now?

Is it possible to change the arrowhead part for humans? Ask Keith later.

After lunch, go to help develop the fourth village, but there is no Kitagawa. It was poison in my eyes, but I asked Forma who was plowing the field with magic.

"Eh? Possibly because a monster came out in the depths of the forest, I entered the forest from the morning. With my lunch box, I was able to make it well."

Forma flutters her wings with a terrible smile. This is a way of pleasure not found in Latte.

"Thank you. Demons ... I guess. I only saw goblins."

"Everything seems like a killer bee or a giant spider."

"Is it toxic ... it's awkward ..."

Would you like to have Apis make a neurotoxin-based antidote and go to the mayor of each village?

"I'm cutting trees too. Maybe he won't die."

"Yes, thank you."

It's pretty polite if you don't care about your clothes and appearance. Where did you find it? I'm sure it's a prostitute.

During the afternoon break, Kitagawa returned with a Harpy man with a sword on his shoulder while discussing the future with the mayor and the demons who won the runner-up at the quarrel.

"I'm tired. It looks pretty rough."

Looking at Kitagawa, I was dressed as a regular farmer with pants on a tank top and a towel on my head.

"It's not a threat to me, but just an ordinary islander ..."

"Yes. Well, it's better to have more countermeasures. And what happened to Harpy-san?"

"Oh, reconnaissance from the sky, because you have good eyes and you can hover."

"Thank you for helping"

I thanked the Harpies next to Kitagawa.

"Don't worry, the giant bees are a threat to us. I've heard that some time ago, some of them had cobwebs. We need cooperation."

I'm sure they'll cooperate, but they're pretty active. Kitagawa thanked him, handed over three rabbits, and the Harpies flew toward the mountains.

It may be good to release it to the wild to make it wild soon. I heard that chickens also attack and eat small snakes.

"Oh, yes. That's a prototype."

This refers to a crossbow that has been placed on the place where it was taking a break.

"Oh, like a gun."

With that said, Kitagawa is holding the crossbow towards the sea and is triggering without meaning. And while pulling the bracket halfway, oh! I'm excited by myself while saying.

"What is the horizontal range?"

"About forty, about one line will extend about ten degrees angularly. Pull as lightly as possible and consider the battle in the forest. Then you do not need much flight distance. Maximum because you do not shoot at 45 degrees Unknown range ''

I was suddenly asked, so I answered it.

"I don't have to step on each step and pull it. It's Oda-san."

I returned the crossbow to me.

"No, no, give it to that hunting team. There was probably one. There was only one in this village with a crossbow. Have me try a little. I've been producing it for practice so that it can be used everywhere. If it's uncomfortable, I'll improve on making it formal. "

Saying that, return the crossbow to Kitagawa again.

"I can call myself. I stopped hunting today because a monster came out."

With that said, Kitagawa ran somewhere and called a man with a crossbow during this time.

"I'm already talking about the translation. Give it over."

Kitagawa just told me that and gave him a crossbow.

"Oh, this guy! Great!"

The man is immediately nervous, gazing at the sight, triggering, etc. He raised the metal fittings of the handle and was surprised that the strings were easily stretched.

"It's amazing! This is amazing!"

He put an arrow on it and fired at the unexplored forest, where he stabbed a tree.

"Wow!"

I understand that feeling somehow ... When I bought the next-generation game console and played the game for the first time, it was like that. New things are just impressive.

And I shot the arrows steadily, piercing the arrows in a vertical line as I did.

"Oh, it's amazing. It's a wonderful line."

"It's different, it's a great guy. It pulls the strings evenly, so the arrow doesn't move from side to side, and it's easy to aim for a different distance with this peephole thread. Please leave this guy to me! To do"

The man asked desperately, so he agreed with a grin and deposited the crossbow.

"There is only one condition. Write a report on the comfort, inconvenience, ease of care, improvements and how long it will take to break. Can you write the letters?"

"I'm just a little."

"If you study, remember and write it down on the paper. Mayor, please make sure the text is correct."

I smiled and didn't get my crossbow back.

"Oh, candy and whip"

Kitagawa grins and says that.

"Because it is more convenient to use the prototypes on site, it is much better than I have. So please report it."

Just in a good spot, the rest period was over, so I got up and started cultivating.

After dinner, I moved my hometown with one plucked chicken. It ’s not going to be home today, it ’s not going to be dinner.

"I'm home"

"Well, it's quick to come back. Did something happen?"

Lily of the valley welcomes me and I'm surprised that I'm back. But my eyes are nailed to my chicken.

"Miel isn't out, right?"

I asked him to check in while entering the house, and when he went to the living room, Miel was drinking tea.

"Dad return" "Dad return"

"Calm, what's going on?"

"Hmm? I'm studying magic for Miel, because only Lily is sorry that there are many people who are sloppy."

While saying so, remove the plate from the shelf and place the chicken in front of Miel.

"So what is this chicken? Is it related to magic?"

"Well, first look at this."

He turned his shirt on his right forearm, strengthened his muscles and strengthened his muscles, making his arm about 20% thicker.

"Today I came to teach me how to raise Miel's muscles. If Lily could do it, she would do it, if she could."

Two people sitting opposite are open and surprised.

"Well, it's easy. It's an image of swelling muscles with magical power."

"Wow. Katchikachi."

"……Is true"

Lily of the valley and Latte are also amused, with their arms ticking.

For now, put your arms back on, make a scalpel-like object with obsidian, and get ready.

"Now, first of all, the muscle structure."

I cut the chicken skin open on purpose, exposing the muscles.

"In this way, there will be muscles in the same direction, this is the muscle fiber. Previously, you would have played magic through the string, and it was the muscle that bundled it."

The explanation will be given while pointing to the site using the tip of a scalpel. Then, the fascia was cut, and only one portion of the muscle bundle was torn apart and taken out, and then sliced.

"As you can see from the side, the muscles are bundled into parts, and there are thick nerves and blood vessels in the gaps between the muscles. I learned a little when I taught healing magic. ――

I put a medical book-like thing drawn by a hero, borrowed from Antonio, on a table and showed a picture of a human with skin peeled.

"It looks like this when the skin is peeled off (...). Isn't that easy to imagine?-First, apply magic to only the arms and try to imagine what looks like Hale's grandfather's arm."

"Why isn't he a grandfather?"

Lily asked strangely.

"Muscles are like a grandfather's grandfather, an instantaneous, heavy, non-persistent stiff muscle, and a healing grandfather's endurance, light and supple muscle. Yes. Both of them are Hale grandfather type, so I recommended that. "

He explained that at the moment when Lily of the valley suddenly turned his arms and squeezed his fist, his arms were increased by about 50% and he was surprised himself.

"Don't stop lily of the valley .... I don't want to see lily of the valley that looks like a granade. At least make me feel like a dad .... I don't have to do Latte ..."

Latte also turned his arm, and his arm, which had been funifni, was just barely visible in his muscles.

And while the kids are experimenting with their arms first, Lily is suddenly getting fat, and Miel is gradually getting thicker and thinner.

"Both of them are fine. Just one word ..."

I got up and became like a muscular bodybuilder. The button on the shirt screams and seems to tear off.

"If you forcibly build muscle like this, you will have muscle pain the next day and you will not want to move."

He immediately returned his muscles, but all four had his mouth half open.

"Yes, I'm going to increase my time to return and teach Miel magic, but I'll follow her if she can follow her. This is training for Miel."

Saying that alone, closing a medical book-like thing, putting hot water in a teapot, drinking tea with a bit of bitterness and bitterness, enjoying a conversation with family, taking a bath, sandwiched between lily of the valley and Latte I slept while sleeping.

It's nice to have a reasonable life. Thanks to Rush and Urle.
