Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai

Lesson 217: Protective Equipment

- Your armor is finally taking shape.

So smug and squeaky, I look at the splendid armor helmet in front of me.

A full body armor that shines on silver. Though not as big and gotten as living armor, the armor that protects the torso is thick, stiffened by helmets, cages, feet, and all over the body.

This finally completed prototype of full-body armor is truly the crystal of everyone's efforts.

Light stones that Rem has been mining on the metal materials that the Exploration Unit has been collecting. Hime-no-san takes them down by hand by the Simple Smelting Formation, and further finishes them from there to "Silver Iron", a fine light iron material in Lando's iron ore smelting.

The materials aligned are produced by 'Sage' Little Bird Games under the surveillance of the Chairman of the Commission. After all, with the eyes of the President of the Commission, he seemed to be unable to skip that way, and his full body armor finished better than ever before. Omei, I knew you'd been skipping before.

"Phew, I'm tired, birdie. I can't work today anymore."

"Good day, little birdie. You can take a bath early."

"Really? Yay!

"Once it's up, we'll improve it and go into the next production."

"Bird, I'm off today!

Screaming, etc., Pretending not to hear the presidential order, Little Bird Play ran away.

Well, fine, because I'll have the chairman of the committee drag me on later.

"Better than being such a fucking sage, you start with trying on him."

"Peach River, your attitude toward bird games, isn't it worse than Raina"

"What are you talking about, Ueda? You're greeting me with such a white treatment."

It's not with Rayna that I often learn to kill.

"So, how does it feel to wear it?

The first step is to try on the armor. Although it is finished as a shape, I have to come by this to verify how far I can actually move.

The flourishing trial model No. 1 asked Ueda, the "swordsman".

"Hmm, cool, but not comfortable. It's not moving well, it's heavy."

"Isn't that irresistible because it's armor?

"Honestly, if it's like this, it's better not to wear it. Then there's no avoidable attack."

I see, with some defense up, a lower dodge rate outweighs the benefits.

"Why don't you lighten it up?

"You're the limit. That too. Originally, we fought in one uniform, so the rest of us are basically avoiding attacks."

"Well, he said that's how he got used to the battle style"

"Well, wouldn't it be nice if it was about hands and feet?

"How's the helmet?

"It may be safe to protect your head, but somehow, it's hard to feel signs when you're wearing it."

"I wonder if my head would be better out there, but it would also increase my perception of my surroundings"

"Maybe that's how it is. This is the same for the other guys."

Yeah, thanks for the review that would be quite helpful. This needs to be improved quickly.

"Hey, I didn't know most of the helmet and armor would go to waste"

"Well, you can't help it. If you're wearing armor, why don't you put it on Yamada?

"Right, Hire It"

Only 'Heavy Warrior' Yamada is the main defense over evasion. His battle style would also allow him to benefit fully from full-body armor that could simply boost his defense.

Good, the crystalline full-body armor of everyone's efforts didn't go to waste.

The next day, Natsukawa was called as a model to try on.

In front of having a sunny and cooperative relationship with her, you can casually ask for something like this, right?

"What do you say, Natsukawa-san?

"Um, it's a little gooey"

This time, it is not metal armor that she is wearing, but equipment that utilizes demonic leather and fur.

I prepared a coat shaped to cover almost the entire body, a vest shaped just for the upper body, and then a pair of socks on gloves.

These items have been the trick I've been working on for a long time. Although my simple smelting is difficult for me to manipulate light-iron based materials freely, demonic materials are not. I can create it in the same way I make clothes out of my usual spider yarn.

"How's it going?

"If you're feeling any better, don't think you'll be all right"

"Good, then you'll have to make some fine adjustments."

Leather equipment is much inferior in defense compared to metal armor helmets. But it can reflect the demon's resistance as it is, so it can be a protection against fire, lightning, etc.

Yamatano Orochi was releasing a brace of different attributes than fire, thunder, ice, even if it was currently only confirmed. Even if I don't say it's all, if only one kind of resistance can be increased, I wouldn't have gone beyond it.

"I guess I could be a little more cute design if I could"

"I'll talk to Mr. Langdon there."

Because I made it, it has an important design that brings out the performance of the material. Wild, to put it well. Natsukawa, dressed in a thick, fire-resistant leather jacket, is truly a thief.

"Then I don't want to sound like a bad bandit."

"There are no good bandits in the first place, though."

Good yakuza, it is like a contradiction. Don't even ask for justice from your outlaw, sweetheart.

"Anyway, get it right cute! And maybe we should have an inner."

"I see, after all I've thought about wearing, it was a blind spot."

If it's light material, it seems like it could be enough inner. Lem picked it up from the mining in the desert area. It looks like it could be made from yellow electric rat monster leather.

As a result, after repeated attempts to wear them and continued brushing up, we finally got everyone's gear ready.

"Silver Iron Cage Hand/Foot": Silver iron, which had already been put into practical use with swords and the like, was used for protective equipment. Almost all avant-garde groups are equipped with this because cage hands and feet are not enough to get in the way of anyone.

"Small Silver Iron Shield": A silver iron buckler to be worn on your left hand. Ueda was to equip it. The armor is heavy and disturbing, but I have no problems handling it if it's about a small shield, so I prepared it at least as a defensive up.

"Silver Iron Circle Shield": A round shield made of silver iron to be worn on your left hand. Nakai is equipped. Ueda and I have similar reasons and can handle even a normal-sized shield powerfully, so it became a circular shield.

"The Great Silver Iron Shield": Silver Iron Tower Shield. Yamada is equipped. Large shields are ideal because they are defense-oriented heavy warriors. Boasts stubbornness and weight after Mae's great shield.

"Silver Iron Armor Helmet": One of the first prototype full-body armor created, renovated for Yamada. While some parts of the armor have been reduced to expand the range of motion, thick armor gives solid defense and weight. Yamada was the only one who was supposed to wear armor all over his body, so it actually made him look the most flashy of his classmates.

"Black Iron Cage Hand/Foot": Black Iron Cage Hand and Foot, which is heavier than silver iron but stronger metal. Equipped by Mae, who boasts the greatest power among her classmates. She also cited mobility as a reason for dropping off armor gear, so it was only hand and foot armor. Nevertheless, it is a slightly prickly villain chic design. This dish deserves a Mad Warrior's armor.

"Wolf Vest": Vest made with fur from a black woolly werewolf knight. Armor's out of the way, but as long as it's the fur vest, it's okay. Has some defense and plain resistance to various attributes. The white fur on the collar neck is proposed by Langtang. Ueda, Nakai and Shimogawa are gearing up for friendly matches.

"Cow Leather Jacket": Jacket made of minnogorilla leather. Performance is somewhere like a wolf vest. Equipped with Juli Mari Combination.

"Banded Down": Down jacket made of big cock feathers. Defense is inferior to Wolf, cowhide, and both, but increases Attribute Resistance. And because it's so light, it became the exclusive gear of Natsukawa-san, whose speed is the "bandit" of his life. This confident piece is tailored in consultation with Langtang and has a wal-like design.

"Grand Bore Coat": A coat made of pig fur that uses earthly attribute magic called 'Groundhog' caught and eaten by the Lower Rivers when they were surviving in the deserted island area. It turns out that a corrective effect is obtained when using earthly attribute magic, so it is produced as a special gear for Mr. Langtang. It should be noted that my coat is designed with considerable temper. In shame, Mr. Langtang also became a satisfying and fashionable coat. Fine, it is a luxury product with a variety of materials.

"Gilly Suit Wilderness Specifications": Fake cloak in shades adapted to Yamatano Orochi's nest, the third in a series of Gilly Suits I'm familiar with. However, it's not me who wears this, it's little bird play. He's a useless sage in battle, so he's geared up to keep his mouth shut and hide so he can't even point Hate out of the gargoyle badly. He looked terribly nasty, but would he stand on the front line and interact with Yamatano Orochi? Ahem?

"Thin Ice Robe": Equipment dedicated to magicians of that attribute, just like Mr. Langdo's coat. As the name suggests, the chairman of the committee wears it for ice magicians. There were no monsters of ice attributes in particular, but by smelting the 'ice crystals' created by her 'ice smelting', she succeeded in hosting the effect that correction could be obtained on ice attribute magic.

"Leather Boots": How long have you been wearing them? We are… so these shoes were required to be made as soon as possible. It took a while to complete because the ingredients were not aligned. Leather could be sourced from demonic materials, but there is no rubber to use on the soles. With plant-based monsters like Trent in the deserted island area turning out to be apparently a rubber tree base, we finally succeeded in obtaining raw materials. After that, however, the purification of the rubber was entirely a request for the smelting of small bird games. After all, the ability to smell sage is different. Anyway, I've been waiting to finish my new shoes.

"Leather Gloves": Gloves that are in lower demand than shoes, but wanted by those who want them. I'm not a sword-wielding wack, but I wanted it plain to protect my poor hands, but my simple smelting was not good enough, so now that I have little bird games, I finally succeed in putting it into practice.

"Cursed Hexa", a glove reserved for magicians: Nice, exclusive equipment. Let me tell you something about my position, and I made a special glove. The base is the same as leather, but it is the fingering type that elementary school boys yearn for. In addition, the back of his hand embroidered the magic formation "Eye of the Six Lights". This makes me feel like using a spell with my hands as the starting point would work better...

"Toughness Shirt": A shirt made of a leather material that is soft and durable enough to be used as underwear. in the inner to earn a little defense. Almost everyone is equipped.

"Crystal Shirt": A shirt made of the glowing skin of the rare monster "Crystaurus" encountered in the first exploration of the desert area. Defense, of course, has a slight effect, but various corrections work against magic. There was only an integral part of the material, so I couldn't prepare everyone's share. So it is given to a member of the sorcerer class whose defense must become poor.

Approximately, this is the place.

People who do not have special protective gear are equal by having them have excellent performance accessories for that matter. Who will equip what, because we have a proper grad meeting to discuss it so that we are not dissatisfied.

Most importantly, not all of them are equal, and preferential treatment comes naturally due to their abilities and roles. For example, the Shizuku of Life, which was miraculously discovered by the Exploration Corps?

At the end of the discussion, the magic item with this breaking healing effect came to be equipped by Aoshi. Well, it's at the core of the force, so it's natural. As far as I'm concerned, I wanted May to have it, but that's too personal.

Anyway, I got all the gear. Everyone's strength also increased.

"- Maybe it's time to try"

Preparations for the Yamatano Orochi offensive have progressed slightly, but steadily. And that, at the very least, should have reached enough lines to challenge.

"And I think, I don't know, guys"

"Finally."

"Oh, to try, it might be a good time."

"Whatever you want."

It is the chairman of the committee, Aemon and Tendo who give us positive opinions for each of them.

This discussion is not about grad parties, just four of us, including me. Only gather facets in representative positions in the class, such as prior opinion coordination. It's a confidential story, so the place is a secret meeting room on the fifth floor of the school tower.

"Aoshi, from your point of view, does the avant-garde combination seem like you can deal with Yamatano Orochi's head?

"One person would still be tough. The two of us should be stable if we get more than three together."

Nice, even though it would have been nasty to get bugged no matter how many bunches you got in the first place. I can say that I have reached the strength to challenge Yamatano Orochi.

"Except that's for one head only. If it's more than two, or if it's in the brace's indiscriminate state, it'll be all you need to do to get out."

"You can't ask for a boulder that far yet."

Even though the practical application of reposition has enriched the means of recovery, it's over if you eat an instant death attack. If you get crushed by that huge head, it's a stain on the ground, and even if the brace hits you directly, it's a coal extinguishing.

"So, Mr. Peach River, do you have a chance?"

"I don't."

The President of the Commission gave me an indescribable look. Aoshin opened his mouth to try to get his ass kidding... by the way, he asked me as if he had reconsidered.

"What are you thinking, Peach River"

In school tower life, Aoshi and I have done a lot together. Even for him, I'm getting a little used to what I say and do.

Not long ago, you would have let them storm us and kill us in an off-target way.

"I think we're at a minimum ready to deal with Yamatano Orochi. But I still can't find the thread for a decisive offense. So this battle isn't about crusading."

It's not a system that you can't challenge if you're never ready to defeat it. In the first place, we've been having a little trouble seeing how things are going.

Yamatano Orochi never moves from that place. There's still not a single special move. Even as I continue to monitor my identity, I remain spookily silent. [M]

There is no change in the boss. Then the rest depends on the approach from here.

"How far do we go now? That and an investigation to confirm the tactics of the temporary phase. Together, I want to make sure in this fight. In short, I think it's a general exercise."

"I see. I think it's good."

"I've been wanting to explore a lot about him, too."

"Do as you please"

All right, everyone's cleared.

"Well, let's try it tomorrow."
