My 【Repair】Skill Became an Almighty Cheat Skill, So I Thought I’d Open Up a Weapon Shop

Episode 151: Resumption of new product development (planned)

- After a soothing meal, I thought it was time to go back to work, and Noir raised his hand to ask for permission to speak.

"... Um... me, too... okay..."

"Of course. Is that also a good idea?

Noir nodded small and began to speak out loud to her, listening to the faces of everyone surrounding the table.

"Lately, I've been busy... with new products, suggestions... and it was hard... but... if the branch can, then... I can afford it..."

"Is it a new product? Sure, you couldn't afford that these days."

The White Wolf store, which started out with the intention of selling only weapons protective equipment, also began to handle a wide variety of products as the staff grew.

Magic item created by Noir the Black Wizard.

medicines such as potions formulated by the pharmacist Erica.

A number of precision tools manufactured by mechanical engineer Alexia.

All of them are of high quality and sell well and have a good reputation.

I think one of the reasons why the White Wolf Store has been able to attract so many customers is because of their activism.

But these days, I've stopped selling new products.

The reason is simple. Because I don't have enough time to turn to those things because of the mobilization of the Demon King's War and the busy circumstances that followed.

"If the increase in staff and the deployment of branches reduces the burden per person, we'll have more time to turn to product development. Have you worked out your ideas yet?"

"Oh, oh... more about it, talk about it..."

Noir threw his gaze at Alexia sitting across from the table.

Alexia was still eating her dessert cake set and turned her eyes around surprised that she was suddenly told the story.

"What? Oh, maybe you're talking about me?

"... that's fine after you finish eating"

"It's okay! I'm just taking the samples home!

After putting the cake set aside, Alexia took one arrow out of the bag at her feet.

It's not an arrow that fires manually on the bow, it's a crossbow-only arrow bullet (bolt).

Depending on the length, it looks like an arrow bullet to be used in a regular crossbow instead of Alexia's favorite large crossbow (Scorpion).

"You used a 'spell bomb' in the battle between them, didn't you? When they land, they explode, they start a chase wind, they accelerate."

"You're the guy who's been helped so many times. Are you going to commercialize it and sell it?"

"No, that curse bomb is a prototype, so I just had a bit of a problem with long-term storage"

With that said, Alexia gently stroked the curse wrapped near the tip of the arrow bullet.

"I give a big name for a curse bomb, but the reality is that Noir made a short scroll... I'm just wrapping a curse around it. Oh, of course, I've got a trick on it to blow it up when it lands."

Spell Scroll. A disposable item that can activate the described magic by expanding it and infusing it with magic, even if you don't have magical skills.

Previously Noir developed a magic bill that referenced the spells used in Eastern spells and scaled down the size and effect of spellscrolling.

The effect is easy to activate even if it's the right size, so Noir himself is a handy magic tool that he uses to assist in combat.

And it was Alexia who combined this spell with the Crossbow arrow bullets that were also active in the Demon King's War earlier.

"I actually used it too and found out. Carrying a spell bomb in an arrow barrel or something, rubbing it together with other arrow bullets can quickly damage the paper of the spell."

"... damaged, spell... use, deprecated... because it's dangerous..."

"I see, that's definitely a problem. It would be difficult to wrap strawberries around them before using them..."

It's an extra-special field for me, but the scrolling ingredients paper doesn't matter, they have the right material for every magic.

It would then also be difficult to change the paper to increase its strength.

"There you go. Luke, I need to ask you something."

That's what Alexia said, trying to slip it on the table and handing me the curse bomb.

"We have heard that there is a thing called [fusion] in the applied technology of [repair] skills. Could you use that to [fuse] the curse into the arrow bullet body?"

"Is that what you mean? Okay, let's do it."

Pours magic into the spell and arrow bullets with your hands.

- [Fusion] heals two objects and transforms them into successive objects.

To give you the most terminal practical example, I have experience [fusing] stone pedestals with swords to create swords that never fall out of pierced pedestals.

If you can metaphor just [synthesis] as something like 'making alloys out of two different metals,' then [fusion] is like 'welding two different metals together'.

If you ask me if there's any big difference, well, I'll have to answer that.

It was only [fusion] that devised the use of [synthesis], because what is intrinsically common is entirely common.

"... All right. How about this?

I took the arrow bullet I had finished hanging [fusion] and seriously observed what I was able to do.

It [fuses] so that the spells merge into the arrow pattern (shaft) part of the arrow bullet, and it also beautifully captures the spells that are necessary for magic activation.

"Hmmm... you can try, but you're not sure it'll activate properly"

"Thank you! I'll see how it works tomorrow, too!

"Don't expect it. Even if it looks like it's finished, the spell function could be dead."

Maybe if you use the example 'right eye' at a time like this, you can spot the prosperity, but I just don't want to cross a dangerous bridge with this.

"Yes, I have a psychotropic I want to try to make too!

"Yes, yes! Can I also tell you that I wish I had a product like this!?

Inspired by Noir and Alexia's suggestion, Erica and Melissa also began to express their opinions orally.

For me to have only one skill, the opinions of the people who work with other skills are really valuable information.

In particular, the opinions of those who are still active are appreciated, as adventurers are likely to be the main audience from now on.

- In doing so, we White Wolf Store members shared our opinions with each other to develop future policies for opening branches and increasing the number of employees.

Nevertheless, something that will cause new trouble if you start something new.

I'm sure if you look back later, you'll think of this time today as a stinging 'cause you were the reason for all that trouble' -
