Lesson 589: From the literature

I forgot to post yesterday and am sorry.

If you haven't read the previous story, be sure to read it.

####

"Why are you insecure in the first place?

"We know what caused it. It's still the karst system."

That may indeed be the case. There will be plenty of people who are disgusted with the karst system and have gone that way, or who have no choice because they are the lowest and have no money...

"I guess I'll have to do something about it."

"... um. This is something we must do for the rest of our lives. The people annoyed me... but I have to do something about all this"

King Rahma said yes, very much.

Even as an adventurer, he's an SSS ranker, and he says he's powerful enough to possess even more master skills, but he's also trying to do more than that.

Dollar Ota, but he's an amazing guy. I respect that there.

I can't do anything weird, for example.

If King Rahma says he'll do something about it himself, you can't let me get in the way of it, can you?

"Right, uh... good luck!

When I say this, my brother who is good would have said something good, but I can't do that, so I can only say good luck.

"Huh, if Alim tells you to work hard, you just have to work hard. Well, look, like the rest of the SSS-ranked heroes, let's get rid of discrimination from this country."

I said that satisfactorily. Yeah, I think it's cool.

... Then it's time for us to go home.

"I've run errands, and we're leaving today."

"Do you have work to do again tomorrow?

"Yes."

Tomorrow is magazine coverage.

"That's tough. I think we're in a hurry than any other SSS ranker, huh?

"No, that's not true. We haven't worked as adventurers here in a long time."

"I see, well, it's better to be photographed. Now it's turned into a main business? You're usually busy."

"Yeah, so if we were to move properly, if some wild SSS-ranked demon showed up... would that be about right?"

"That's a choice too."

Yeah... just so we're clear, I'm not an adventurer, I'm a stuff maker and an idol.

Then it's time to spare some time...

"Oh, oh, what a surprise!

"Ooh, what!?

A researcher who had just disappeared came back to this room excited. This speed... well, you read a book 1000 times faster.

"It's a weapon to seal the demon gods! See, if the kingdom of Mephirado, like the sword of the brave, the spear of the wise man of the Egdrasil Divine Tree kingdom, Excalibur, our country also had a weapon against the demon gods!

"Nah...... is that true!?

Oh, it wasn't the other way around?

I didn't know that.

"I didn't know there wasn't..."

"Oh, yeah. The weapon against the demon god disappeared at the same time that the demon god was destroyed, he said. 'Cause that was a long time ago, too, no, I knew it had to be exact. _____"

"I didn't know what that was like, that's why! Thanks to Alim, I don't know."

That's good.

I knew there were a lot of things about demon gods being defeated first. When Sultre was completely sealed, he said it couldn't be from the seal anymore, but if that's true, I wonder if everything in this world... is forgotten about a thousand years from now.

No. 1000 years is just fine. There are a lot of books left.

... then I'm curious that there weren't so many books left on weapons to seal demons in this country... but you can't help but care about that!

If anything happens, I'll just bust it, hehe.

"So, what is it?

Vajra Pestle.

"Vajra Pestle?

"Yeah, well, I'll show you the material now."

What the researchers showed me, I don't know… well, I guess it feels like a very cool dumbbell to analogize with.

"They say this is like a wand, so to speak."

"Wand? Is this it? Surely there are many who make instruments and other magical mediums..."

"Well, that must be part of it."

Sounds like Mr. Heimdall from SSS Ranker or Mr. Gogg from Lakhand.

Well, swords, spears... when I did, I thought it was a bow or a cane, but I didn't know it was like this. Surprise.

"... yes, that brave sword must have been made by Arim!? Can't Alim reproduce it?

"I can... what do you do?

"The demon gods are still scared.... just in case. I'll pay you as much as I want, can you create one for me?!?... There is no deadline. Anytime."

Something strange has happened.

I just had to make that Vajra pestle.

"Uh... at least in a week or so, are you sure?

"Oh, never mind."

Do you really make it?

... Well, it's what they asked me to do right away, and I'm serious about it, but I'm not going to revive the demon because I made a weapon, am I?
