Kuro no Maou

Leggin Stratos was a blacksmith genius. He is a genius enough to be super.

And my aspirations as a blacksmith were higher than anyone else's.

"I want to make the most powerful weapon"

The only and absolute goal, held at the same time as waking up to blacksmith. I don't need money or honor, I just want to make one of the strongest weapons in the world, with my own hands. Simplify it, it is the ultimate goal.

Once the goal is set, Leggin pushes even toward it.

I apprenticed to Tor Heavy Industries because I thought it was the best and shortest route to get an environment to create the strongest weapons.

For Leggin, the training of a blacksmith and his daily work are all just passing points. Rather, we actively avoided matters that would not benefit the strongest weapons. I don't have time for that stuff.

Take ten years to lay the groundwork neatly? Ridiculous. A waste of time is also extreme.

But I guess that attitude was taken less seriously around. Leggin's character, which takes longer to think than actually waving a hammer, makes me even more applauded.

Short tempered dwarves have their hands moving before they think. If you fail, you can fix it. That's the basic idea. On the other hand, temperamental elves think carefully. Derive optimal solutions at the end of thoughtful thinking. Even if you fail, you'll have to fine-tune it later.

Opinions will be divided as to which is the better methodology, but at least, from each other, you must think of each other as "how stupid". The deep-rooted inter-ethnic conflict between the famous Dwarves and Elves will also be in large part in terms of differences in thinking.

Anyway, the elf-thinking leggings were hated by the other dwarves anyway. I haven't done anything, I've been playing longer. Sure, I drink alcohol, and I played well with women. But not for a moment when I was passionate about Sole.

No matter how high you drink and get drunk, no matter how good you hold a woman, all you can think of is the most powerful weapon in your head. I can't help but think, even if I'm going to change my mood.

And you try the ideas that you come up with that way in a handful of working hours.

If this can just garbage, as just an incompetent lazy person, Leggin has been knocked out of Tor Heavy Industries a long time ago.

But every time he made something, he made it into something of great quality. That's so much so that the nomination for the request comes at only fifteen.

"Leggin, I hear you sold your war axe for two million."

"Uh, that's it. I finished it overnight with drunken momentum, so honestly, I don't remember how I made it. Hey, even a proper mon like that costs two million, so it's a shabby business, you know, blacksmith."

Thanks to you, the money is ready to be made.

However, three or four or so magically granted (enchanted) degrees of weaponry can be sold at such a price, so it really makes a mess of money.

But you can't buy time with money, and you don't get any ideas, no taste, you don't get any of the stuff you want. All the agony solicits.

On the other hand, I envied Dayne for his contemporaries calling himself a rival.

His dream is to become a fine workshop manager, like his father.

If you become Tor Heavy Industries' chief workshop manager, that's all your dreams come true. That's all I can do, I'm satisfied. What a happy man.

The more I thought about such a ruthless thing, the more adult Leggin was stuck.

What I can do in Adamantoria, roughly, I've thought through it, and I've tried. I was convinced that any better material and equipment would not, in the end, be the most powerful weapon I would ever seek. At best, it's only the best quality weapon in the world, to the extent.

I can't do that. The best of our time, we can't just call it the strongest.

You have to go beyond antiquity to get the strongest title. An era with magic technology that has gone far beyond modern times. And the time when the ancient demon king Mia Ellord lived.

What is currently the most powerful weapon? If asked, perhaps the majority of people would say it was a weapon used by Demon King Mia.

But whether that weapon was a sword, a magic wand, or an unknown form of thing that only existed in ancient times, it has not even become apparent.

I didn't even know who the stuff to cross was, and Leggin's goal was still far away, and I didn't even get to see it in the sumptuous.

But one time, when I show such a stuck, a turning point comes.

It was a single sword, which happened to be carried into the workshop.

"Whoa, what the hell! This sword is cursed!!

It is the sword used by the culprit in the Tsukuba incident that occurred in the alley the other day. The murderer's man was a fairly wealthy merchant and said he was a collector of old weapons. A brilliant decorative liturgical sword, the sword that looks like, is in fact a cursing weapon, a wacko that is the culprit of the end of a madness caused by its curse.

"... he's amazing"

Think of it, it was the first time I had ever seen a real cursed weapon.

And I realize it was a blind spot.

The curse weapon is strong. A normal weapon, a high quality weapon, has a heterogeneous strength.

The raging of those who are mad about the curse is awesome. Even if you're just an amateur, once you hold onto it, it makes you stand around so much that you can't contain more than one warrior against you.

In fact, he had a terrible hard time seizing the culprit in this case.

"Nice, maybe... if it's a curse weapon..."

But the most peculiar thing about a cursed weapon is that it grows.

Use your cursed weapon to fight, kill, sip more blood, and do more work, and the curse will 'evolve'.

Even with a rusty sword stained with some resentment at first, if you continue to use it to slaughter people, the slashing taste increases, the intensity increases, and even the five senses are enhanced to target new prey, or special abilities are expressed. It means that a rusty sword turns into an equivalent of a famous sword or demonic sword.

Then, if only we could create the highest quality curse weapon from the start. A weapon of curse that houses a marauder murder weapon that allows you to extend your abilities in any direction. If it has evolved…

Found new possibilities, Leggin took immediate action.

"Me, Tor, I'm gonna stop."

"What, are you finally going to be independent?

"Eww, I'm leaving Adamantoria"

"Huh!?

There's nothing more to learn at Tor Heavy Industries.

Instead, he couldn't have been able to study cursed weapons or anything, even in Thor, who manufactures genuine weapons.

"Get out of here, where are you going! If you're going to be a blacksmith, Adamantria is Pandora."

"Nothing, you can do a blacksmith anywhere."

For one thing, visit under the famous as a collector of cursed weapons. We have to start by looking, touching, and learning more about cursed weapons.

"You idiot! I'm in Adamantoria, so I guess I can make the best weapon in the world!!

Sure, I'll admit it. But what Leggin wants is the strongest.

"Hey, Dayne... what do you think is the most powerful weapon?

I thought I would say goodbye to this self-proclaimed rival, Dayne, and I felt a little loneliness as a leggin, but it was an inquiry.

I don't know, he's the only one who kept going out with himself ever since he was apprenticed to this day. Nobody, he, leaves Leggin out of it. It's a natural consequence if you think about your usual attitude, and it's not enough to care.

But only Dayne has always been the man who kept chasing after himself.

"With the protection of the black gods, the holy sword"

Dayne's answer was as expected.

With the blessing of God, you will boast of power that transcends intelligence.

But don't forget. Demon King Mia was originally a human being. I live in this world, I was just one person.

And if, in the age of living as a person, it is conveyed that the weapon that Mia has wielded is the strongest - the strongest weapon must be made by man and used by man.

That is once again the weapon wielded by such a person as to be bewitched by the Demon King in future generations. It is such a weapon that it becomes a legend, and one day it becomes a myth.

"Right. I think it's a curse weapon."

A little too much teaching, etc., Leggin traveled through Adamantoria the next day.

Then twenty years.

It was Sparda who eventually stayed while wandering around Pandora in search of a cursed weapon.

Across the Galahad Mountains, it is the country where the greatest war on the continent of Pandora can take place, bordering Daedalus, which seeks to invade the centre of the continent. The weapon of curse is born after tragedy or tragedy, or at the end of madness. A large battlefield would be the most deserving environment for such things to happen.

In Sparda, which always prepares for Daedalus, the demand for weapons is also higher than in other countries. Leggin, a gifted blacksmith, was happily accepted into this country.

Even more fortunately, the chairman of the Moldrette Arms Chamber, a sparda and mid-sized arms dealer, was a fervent cursed weapons collector.

"Uhm, that's a surprise. At that young age, I had no idea you had such a profound insight into the weapon of curse. Honestly, I salute you, Moldret."

"No, the chairman is the one with the great appraisal eye. None of this, a delicacy assortment. I've never seen a stunning collection like this before"

Vine Verts Moldret, who loves the weapon of curse more than anyone else, and Leggin Stratos, who deepened his quest for the weapon of curse more than anyone else. The two quickly became intentional, became unrivalled best friends, and it was nature's accomplishments that made them their best business partners.

Working with Moldrette, Leggin unleashes the strength he has only ever had in the small. In an instant, that excellent weapon gained explosive popularity in Sparda.

In particular, the magical sword with the added magic (enchant) of the new axis, mastered in the course of the cursed weapons study, was immensely powerful. Creating one powerful Demon Sword after another, Leggin became Sparda's most popular blacksmith, with the alias Demon Blade Striking (Death Maker).

And at the same time that Leggin's name was sold, Moldrette, who was only a middle-class player, grew rapidly into the largest arms chamber in Sparda.

But for Leggin, his success as a blacksmith is just one of the passing points again. He needed the status of becoming the best blacksmith in this sparda, so he just became one.

The reason for this is' King Sword Crimson Sparda ', which only King Sparda is allowed to grip.

"Leggin Stratos. Expect you to be Spartan's best blacksmith and order the repair of my king's sword"

I've been waiting for this order.

The 52nd King Spartan, Leonhardt Tristan Spartan, was grasping information that he intended to make an enhanced modification of the King's Sword for the forthcoming Fourth Galahad War. The oldest and most powerful king's sword in Sparta, inherited from generation to generation by the first king Sieghardt, has frequently undergone repairs and enhanced modifications to its present appearance.

And being allowed to take care of the Wang Sword, which can be considered legendary for Sparda, is limited to being the best blacksmith in the country.

"Yikes, Yikes... This' Crimson Sparda 'can do the strongest curse sword!

At the end of years of research, the answer I arrived at was this king's sword.

That in theory, turning 'Crimson Sparda' into a cursed sword would gain tremendous power as yet unprecedented. That is only because of the historical experience that this sword has always been used in great battles since its founding. The king's sword, which is called legend, is not Dada.

If so many swords succeed in hosting curses and fulfilling evolution...

"Come on, do it!!

For this time, I've been ready for everything.

To the theory of curse, to the techniques worked out, to the state-of-the-art equipment, to the highest quality materials. It is the best environment I could prepare because I became Sparda's best blacksmith and worked with Sparda's best arms dealer.

In case, failure is unlikely.

The facade is a reinforcement based on the King's Sword, but 'Crimson Sparda' is completely crushed. Normally, the original shape is strengthened by fusing and supplementing various materials by smelting… but only the polar part, which should also be said to be the core of the Wang Sword, is necessary for the strongest weapon. Even though the king sword of Sparda is more impure for Leggin, it's just a stone.

Remove all disturbing parts and all that remains is a handful of metal chunks. But it is the steel of a king with a long history of war, which can be the nucleus of his strongest sword.

Now we have all the ingredients to create the strongest sword. Earliest, complete new construction, not reinforcement. From scratch, Leggin creates the strongest sword.

Finally, excitement culminates in the present, which fulfils many years of dreams.

I've never had the pleasure of waving a hammer before. Instead, I even thought I should continue like this forever.

That way, Leggin undoubtedly does the biggest job of his life.

"... done"

Last big stuffing, seven days and seven nights overcoming work in an insomnia break, crushing like the essence is exhausted.

Finished, "Demon Blade Strike (Death Maker)" Leggin finished "The Greatest Weapon" - was a big black sword.

The brilliant crimson flesh, the King's sword hence named 'Crimson Sparda', but now that it has turned black, it can be said that it is completely separate. For the aura of burning flames that should erupt, Leggin has now awakened. The resentment stained with the blade at the end of years of battle and the temper that has been extracted from a selection of cursed weapons has turned into a dos black aura and swirled.

It is a disastrous sword, as the king of demons, who reigns over hell, from the red king's sword, which is worthy of a flourishing king Sparda.

Then this is no longer 'Crimson Sparda'.

The most powerful weapon in history. The name...

"-" The Devil's Sword Berserk ""

But there's only one Leggin to know the true name of the sword: the producer and the nominee.

The royal order received is only the repair of the 'Crimson Sparda'. Then the repair of the king's sword is complete and must be returned as is.

Thus, with a strict multiple seal and an even more perfect ability to disguise, the appearance can look completely back to normal. No one can imagine you're completely crushed once.

In "King Sword Crimson Sparda," which has once again turned into a crimson sword, the power of the curse is in a state of seal of ninety percent. But if you let it be completely liberated, it will instantly turn into 'Demon Sword Berserk'.

Only those who seek further strength may unseal the curse.

"Phew, well, if His Majesty waves this too, you'll see soon enough"

Modern King Leonhardt is famous as a genius swordsman no less than the first generation. Such a King Leonhardt would recognize the strongest power, far surpassing the King's sword to date.

And if you debated Daedalus' Dragon King Garvinal with this sword, you can capture the power of the mighty Black Dragon and evolve. At that point, it would turn into the most powerful demonic sword with no things lined up in the world.

Not far away, the power of the 'Devil's Sword Berserk' spreads throughout Pandora. With such absolute confidence, Leggin returned The King's Sword Crimson Sparda.

And the dream, that's where it ended.

"- Leggin Stratos, on the charge of attempted assassination of the King, immediately, is charged with death"

King Leonhardt fell, pulling out the 'King Sword Crimson Sparda', which was returned after the repair. Caused by a fierce curse.

If you're a normal person, you go mad in an instant, your brain boils to death. King Leonhardt is a rare swordsman, with his forged flesh, his vast magic and, above all, his tough spiritual strength, so he just had to fall.

I just wanted to make the most powerful weapon, no one knows Leggin's heart.

From the side, it is an undertaking that can only be perceived as a great sinner who plotted the King's assassination by planting a poison named Curse on the King's Sword.

It was not until this period that Leggin became aware that it was a felony that should not have been, such as turning a king's sword passed down from generation to generation into a weapon of curse.

"... wait, the rest is safe"

King Leonhardt, with a blue-faced face, appeared at that time when he was suddenly self-defeated and placed on the headstand.

"Until the man fulfilled his duties as a blacksmith. You can't handle the King's sword, it's just the remainder immature."

His Majesty the King's immediate injunction spared him the death penalty.

"Sorry, Leggin Stratos. In the rest, we cannot unleash the true power of this sword. If you will, this most powerful swordsman will appear."

King Leonhardt drew on all Leggin's will.

He admitted that he had created the strongest sword. And I admitted I couldn't use it myself.

Yes, the strongest weapon, indeed, is here. But the user was not alone.

……

By the pardon of King Leonhardt, Leggin was spared the crime of death, but the news that the king had fallen by the repair of the king's sword spread instantly, and the credibility of the name 'Demon Blade Strike (Death Maker)' was discredited. Declaring his retirement as a blacksmith, he slew away all his mustaches, which were also Dwarf's pride, at least as a sinful destruction. After that, I also swore in the temple that I would never grow my beard again.

But above all the reputation of the public, Leggin himself was completely shelled out as a blacksmith.

The strongest weapon could have been made, but what lacks a user is, can you say, fulfilled, a dream come true?

In a way, it could be said that it has come true.

But at the same time as it was done, Leggin held it. I want to see a sign that this' Devil's Sword Berserk 'is truly the strongest. I want to prove that this sword is the strongest blade that can cleave, pierce and pierce any enemy.

And most importantly, we want to see "The Greatest Weapon" in the East and West now, reaching the end of overthrowing numerous powerful enemies and evolving -

It was spreading ahead of the dream, a further desire.

"Anyone... Somebody, use my 'Devil's Sword Berserk'..."

Even Leonhardt, Sparda's strongest swordsman, just pulled it out. Now, to a certain extent, a little aptitude for a cursed weapon is not at all, nor is it the opponent.

"The Devil's Sword Berserk" was not the strongest sword, etc., but merely a fierce poison, killing those who gripped it madly.

Such a worst sword user, etc. can't even show up.

"Leggin, won't you work for us again? Let's get a workshop ready. Just an iron sword, as a blacksmith, aren't you going to do it?

It was Moldret, the user, who hit a wall that he couldn't help himself and called out to Leggin, who had become self-inflicted.

"Well... well... haha, this is the only way I can do it anyway, hey"

Thus, a self-absorbed supergenius burning in guilla and ambition fell into the hands of hundreds of blacksmiths running just small blacksmiths, aiming to create the strongest weapons in Adamantoria.

Once we gave up our dreams, our lives began to be more peaceful and serene than we thought.

Like a bad father who never even omitted it, the days of putting up a Stratos Blacksmith Workshop and a sign with no twist whatsoever to hold quite a few quality weapons.

Starting to lead such a normal life, Leggin realized for the first time beyond the age of forty, the gratitude of engaging with people.

Chairman Moldrett, who still takes care of his fallen self, including King Leonhardt, who showed up to withdraw his death sentence. And it was the Dwarf woman in my hometown I met in the liquor store who lost her dream and buried her in her pompous, perforated chest. If you notice, she becomes her own wife and stays next door, as is natural.

Her presence, not knowing one old self burned by ambition, was above all appreciated.

"Good for this...... good for you, Dayne"

Being a subcontractor blacksmith, I even began to hold the thought of missing my hometown. I learned that the self-proclaimed rival I once looked down on fulfilled my dream of becoming the first workshop manager of Tor Heavy Industries by replying to a letter I sent out on a whim.

Literate with friends who grew up in their hometown in a peaceful blacksmith's life. That's all, when I started to feel fulfilled, one girl came to visit me.

"Su, excuse me, I'd like you to build a weapon as shown in this blueprint."

He was an elf alchemist.

He wanted to build a weapon he designed himself and was visiting a blacksmith workshop to go around, but he was having trouble saying no to anywhere. He's a seminary student and rank one adventurer, and the amount he can pay is a tear of stings. Furthermore, if the target becomes an elf, it would be unlikely that the Dwarf craftsman would give an OK with pleasure.

"Well, can I show you, Elf's lady"

"Yes, go ahead. It is a gun that you shoot without magic, made with reference to a magic prop gun and a bowgun. And I'm a man."

I wanted to work with a boy alchemist named Simon because there was a part of him that overlapped with his former self? The attitude was different and he seemed to be chasing his dreams as an alchemist.

"Hmm, what are you going to do with this' gun '?

"I'm weak. With a gun, I was wondering if I could do some quests."

Simon, who has no magical powers to be good at elves and only impotent powers as he seems to be, seems to have craved a weapon capable of hunting monsters himself like that.

But such a weapon for the weak does not exist. At best, so popular are easy to handle, light and short swords, spears, and canes used by rushing sorcerers. Therefore, there was no idea that it was a weapon that was expected to grow in subsequent users, a weapon that would continue to be used while still weak.

Naturally, the world of battle is a weak predator. He dies in turn from the weak. There can be no beginners, no one who can continue to fight as a beginner.

"I see. Stand by and shoot. You can shoot with a certain amount of power."

"Experimentally, if it's about the crust of a raptor, it's critical enough to pierce it."

But it seems that this poor elf boy, who has no growth whatsoever, is going to do as he is and as an adventurer. Keep fighting weak. That would be a far tougher challenge than those newbie adventurers there who have hope of becoming strong one day.

"Sure, even women and children can fight up to about rank 1 monster"

"Right? So, please!

"Ha ha, fine, I was just free."

"Is it true! Thanks!!

I was just going to give him a little support for the dream of a promising young man.

But the moment I saw the blueprint for the gun that Simon showed me and an overview of that weapon, Leggin noticed.

If weapons like this are mass-produced and spread, there will be a hell of a number of dead people.

The weak are the weak, but therefore do not fight. But if, easily, cheaply, you get enough power to kill people with one trigger - a brutal theory passes through your brain when you were once dumped on a weapon of curse. If people die, that's all tragedy happens. If more people die, it becomes an even greater tragedy.

This little boy's dream could turn the world into hell.

Rather than being afraid of such an imagination, Leggin was surprised at how excited she was to have herself.

Apparently, the glow of a completely extinguished dream still tickles in my chest as a small seedfire.

Ambitions that will soon be buried again as a peaceful life continues. But soon there will be another fire.

It was the man loved by the curse that brought in a boy who might make a hell of iron and fire where the bullets fly.

"- It's Chrono the Adventurer, thank you."

This man may be able to use the sealed and most powerful cursed sword, the Devil's Sword Berserk.

The array is still in the hands of King Leonhardt as the king's sword. No one else can hold that sword besides King Sparda - but one day, surely.

Leggin's dream, again, began to move.
