"... What, yeah, yeah!?

Erica began to wander her gaze around the womb, confused as she seldom saw it.

"Hey, wait a minute! It's deeper than Demon King Castle, isn't it?!? Why me?!

"I knew you'd think so. Should I have told you what happened first?"

Reflecting on what has surprised me in vain, I shall explain in an orderly fashion why I needed the users of flame attribute skills and the holders of drug knowledge.

"The Roys have stepped through the underground labyrinth of Demon King's Castle, but their exploration of the hierarchy has not yet progressed. The cause is an unknown source flowing from nowhere. They say if we incinerate it, we can temporarily retreat, but they haven't found any fundamental measures."

Everyone on this occasion gets a convincing look when they hear why I briefly told them.

Erica, the most 'normal' girl in all this, also seemed to understand my intentions a little late from everyone.

"First, I want to take a guy who can handle the flames in case there's an outbreak of temper during an inspection. I think a spell scroll or a spell bomb can handle it, but the magic items have a physical limit to how many they can carry. I just want to respond with skills and magic if I can."

"... so I'd also like to take someone who can detoxify it for when someone gets annoyed..."

"That's the thing. Besides, if you're in charge, you might notice who you are.

All of this was in the documents I received from Dustin.

It was really just a short while ago that Roy broke through the underground labyrinth.

Soon afterwards, he realized that he was in danger and immediately approved the report and entrusted it to Dustin.

Noir is a talent who can expect both roles, but he's been busy making demonic props for his merchandise here lately and couldn't take him out on a few days underground inspection.

First, since Noir is an employee of the White Wolf Shop, but in a position that has nothing to do directly with the White Wolf Knights, forcing him to order is in itself illogical.

"Naturally, I can't give you instructions as the Knights Commander. This is just a personal favor. Anyway, even if I refuse because I don't like it, there's nothing wrong with it or anything like that."

This neighborhood is important, so I will carefully overlap the explanations.

I can't give orders or enforce them.

I don't even want to put silent pressure on you and crush your option to say no.

Erica, after worrying about her troubles, put forward that she just wanted to make sure that this was all she had, and expressed only one question.

"... me or something, are you sure?

"Of course. I'm the most trusted pharmacist."

Erica looks to Noir for an opinion.

He smiled and nodded back, and Erica never turned her mind back to me.

"Oh, I'll do it! Leave it to me!

After the meeting, Alexia called me to stay in the store living room.

"I'm sorry I'm busy, Mr. Luke. I just wanted to tell you something."

With that said, Alexia arranged several products neatly on the table.

All of them are gear that combines mechanical skill with magic props.

Just looking at this lineup seems like you could make a huge mistake of guessing what direction Alexia's business is in.

"Me, I've developed all sorts of things in co-development with Noir, haven't I? I feel like a massive release of ideas that I've been accumulating, but I still feel like this is the next step."

Alexia arranged each piece of equipment in development order before beginning to tell the breakdown in old order.

"First of all, a normal curse bomb. It's a simple substitute for a spell-scrolling miniature version of a curse wrapped around a crossbow or a large crossbow (scorpion) arrow bullet (bolt)."

This is Alexia's first joint development arm with Noir.

By the time the Demon King's War was rapidly unfolding and into the showdown, it was put into action as Alexia's gear in the middle of a bump production, and it showed considerable activity.

"So this is an updated version that fully [fuses] the Curse and Arrow Bullet (Bolt) body with your skills, Luke"

"I stopped solving it while I was storing it, but you were the guy with the performance and size on it."

"Yes. So, this is the over-complicated overdraft of what was meant to be a development."

It is a motivational prototype aimed at knocking high firepower in at high speeds by tightly densifying an attack curse near the tip of a single arrow bullet (bolt) to the back.

However, as he said, it took too much time to manufacture, which led to the conclusion that commercialization was difficult.

"It's the new curse bomb and the throw curse bomb that developed from this no-go proposal, isn't it? The former was a substitute for sticking together a large number of curses instead of a curse, throwing away an attack as an arrow, and specializing in curse projection."

"So throwing a spell bomb is a tricky piece of equipment that controls the size of a spell that can be thrown with one hand, so that it can be activated a few seconds after magic."

They are all the poles of a combination of magic and skill.

Especially since throwing curse ammunition is powerful for ease of use and it is difficult to sell something for attack to the general public, we only sell something with no difficulty effect in this store close to town.

A powerful projectile that can destroy a Warcraft must be purchased in a pre-dungeon branch with Alliance authorization.

I wonder if there could be any more substitutes at all - I almost thought it was me in the Gateway, but let the expert (Alexia) say we still have a long way to go.

"Noir's been busy lately and hasn't made much progress, but I still have a prototype that can withstand the test run."

Alexia smiled proudly, revealing in front of me the crossbow that was wrapped in cloth.

Auto-loaded repeating crossbow - a weapon that became my gear under the assumption that there were many malfunctions in the moving parts and [repair] them while using them.

I usually keep it with Alexia for maintenance. Besides, it had a modification at a glance.

- The cartridge attached to the upper part of the normal crossbow holds an arrow bullet (bolt) to be automatically loaded, a part that has been mounted since before.

Apart from that, the lower part of the crossbow also had something like an elongated cartridge attached to it to snuggle perfectly against the body of the longitudinal length.

"You naturally know enchant-based magic, don't you? For a long time there has been a tactic of enchanting an attribute into an arrow and turning it into a fire arrow… Before this I asked Noir if I could make enchanted magic spelling scrolls"

"No way, it's on the underside of the crossbow, this cartridge..."

Alexia laughed and continued her explanation, putting my response to the whine behind her.

"The answer was' I think it's possible but not practical '. That's right. The spelling scroll is disposable, and once activated, it won't stop until it's extinguished, and the higher the instantaneous output, the longer it lasts."

"You've heard of me, too. The long-lasting Enchant scroll disappears in an instant, so one weapon at a time is the limit, and the effect time is still about a few minutes…"

"Once you can hang it on multiple weapons, the effect of each diminishes for at most ten seconds. Plus, the scroll body disappears in minutes. Cost performance sucks, right?"

That's why spelling scrolling polarizes into something that instantly draws large output or something that is oriented towards everyday life that lasts longer with a low output to the extent of drying the clothes.

It's not a frequency system, it's a time limit that burns out the strings that ignite it, and when the shorter the strings, the greater the effect, the harder it is to use the halfway ones.

"But it doesn't matter if it's a repeating crossbow."

Alexia raised the edge of her mouth as if she were even malicious.

"A normal bow would increase the firing interval by several shots per minute and many times if you had the expertise, but the speed of the series would definitely drop sharply when you hang the arrow close to the scroll and the enchant"

"But this guy said he could fire more than that within the scrolling time limit. Damn, don't come up with anything like this..."

If you want to effectively combine a bow or regular crossbow with an enchant magic scroll, it will be in the form of awarding a high-output enchant to just one arrow and tapping into a powerful shot.

But a repeating crossbow that can be automatically loaded and fired allows for applications that are not confined to common sense.

"Of course the scroll cartridges are free to change. You can also combine a wind acceleration enchant with a new high-output curse bomb. Make the most of it!

Alexia's eyes, speaking forcefully, were filled with the light of confidence and expectation.
