When I sent Mel to the Labyrinth City Workshop, I discovered that Mel was in trouble.Before you joined me as an apprentice, your three uncles forced you to sell your workshop.Somehow it smells very criminal.

I welcomed my three uncles to Mel's workshop, made tea, introduced myself to each of them, and was entertaining... but my vigilance could not dissipate the dust.

I don't know how it feels, but I think it's unreasonable for me to just move a little bit and shudder. After that, I find Nira with harsh eyes.

Before I entered the workshop, I looked pretty aggressive, but I may have lost my eyes and become anxious.

"Um, it doesn't matter if you keep quiet, so why don't you start a discussion?"

I don't want it to bite, so I don't want it to rustle.

"Ah, oh, okay. That said, as long as you give up the workshop, there's no need to discuss it."

Uncle Gachimchi, who seems to be the three central figures, is a little bluffed by Mr. Golden.

"As far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to sell the workshop.But then we won't be able to settle this, so let's talk about how we can resolve this barren situation.Why do you want to stay in this workshop? "

So, Nilla, I'm only saying relatively straightforward things.

"... you don't know, but this workshop is the longing and pride of a labyrinth city craftsman."The swords struck by the workshop lords from generation to generation were wonderfully strong, sharp, and of wondrous beauty. "

I didn't know it because I had only seen a rusty workshop, but it seemed to be quite a famous one.

Produce from generation to generation, I guess there was a secret method.

Are you thinking of buying the manufacturing method with the workshop?

I can understand the secret of blacksmithing and not giving up.

Well, I wouldn't be able to do that if Meral was involved.

"I'm not thinking of such a shameful thing!"I'll take back the lost vitality of this workshop on our own. "

Mr. Golden was angry when his fear disappeared and his face turned bright red.Looks like it hurt the pride of the craftsman. "But..."

That's not your role, it's Mel's job, right?

I think it's superfluous.

“I know that. But what do you expect a little girl to expect to be an adventurer and dive into a labyrinth when she should face the iron?You can't leave it to me, can you? "

Ah, Mel tried and tried a lot of things to sign up with Merral, but didn't he see it seriously?

If you're a blacksmith, hit the iron! So that's it.

"Mel, didn't you explain?"

We've talked a lot about it, and explaining it's for a contract with Meral clears up the misunderstanding, right?

"No, I explained, but it seemed like an excuse to escape from blacksmithing..."

Beside Mel, who looked sad, Meral nodded with a look of sight.

Probably didn't get through to you many times.

"Probably, I couldn't sign up with the Spirit after all that evidence."Ineligible as a successor to the workshop. "

It is determined that Mel is completely unable to do it.

At this rate, even if I explained that Meral had become an Intermediate Spirit, it seemed like an excuse.

And maybe because Mel looks sad, it's cute that Merrill Selio is snuggling up to Mel.

Even though it is a baby with a tight-faced craftsman face, it has an excellent healing effect.

Even if you don't feel close to Mel, Mel will be relieved that the signs are well communicated.

"However, Mel signed up with the spirits of this workshop."Doesn't that mean you're qualified to take over the workshop?Besides, you don't have the talent to be a spirit magician, do you?Wasn't it Golden who wasn't qualified to succeed this workshop? "

Unless you simply want this workshop, Golden will fail when it comes back to life.

"I don't need spirits for blacksmithing."Even if it is necessary, it is the craftsman who makes up for it with technology. "

Huh? Was that what you said? I thought you said you were ineligible because you couldn't sign up with the spirits.

Hmm? But is it okay to make it up to you with technology?

Then, next to Mr. Golden, two uncles who were nodding their heads to say so were in the way.

Don't nod, just talk a little.

"The craftsman speaks with his arms."

... I thought I was being asked for an opinion because I turned my attention, but I was told on Doya's face.

I'm sorry you said you had to talk to me. I apologize, so shut up.

"Anyway, Mel was able to sign a contract with the spirits, and he is working hard as a workshop owner."The workshop will be revived if you don't leave it to us, so don't worry about getting another one. ”

"You can rest assured! If you're an adventurer and don't want to fly without a crackle, you'll be an apprentice to a spirit magician and rest in the workshop."Dive into the labyrinth and rest in the workshop.Leave the Labyrinth City and rest in the workshop.You've been resting, haven't you! "

... I feel like about half of Mel's untrustworthy part is my fault.Would it have been better not to take me on a trip?

For now, let's start by clearing up the misunderstandings.

I'm sure these people will agree with me if I find out that I wasn't resting and playing, but that I was training properly.



During a long conversation, I understood that I had not managed to rest and play in the workshop.

You haven't trained as a blacksmith in Spiritualist training!"... or blacksmithing and casting are different things, but I got a lot of them..."

But I also understand that conversation alone will not convince these people.

These people don't think they're wrong.

Of course, I know you're thinking about the benefits of running a workshop in a labyrinth city, but my top goal is to revive this workshop.

That's why we're doing good.It is justice to revive the workshop that is the pride of the Labyrinth City, and we truly believe that that is our mission.

Golden-san, even though Mel's father asked me to join his disciple and refused, it seems that he still respects and admires his father.

The other two are somewhat different, but they are fascinated by Mel's father's work and have a desire to do something about this workshop.

That's why I can't allow Mel to become an adventurer or rest from the workshop and go out, so I want to get the workshop.

... I can't reach Mel's words.

Well, it's only a bona fide seller, but it's only bona fide and of poor quality.

If we take a hard-line approach, the bad guys will be here.

When this happens, it won't be possible to solve it through discussion.

Then what should I do? Hmm, you said, "The craftsman speaks with his arms."

Should I prove that Mel has the right skills to succeed the workshop?

In games and lanobes, there is a blacksmith tournament, and it feels like you can prove your skill by winning there, but is there a blacksmith tournament in a labyrinth city?

Huh? How strong is Mel in the first place?If there was a tournament, would you win?

I don't think my skills are bad because I've made a great Fire Dragon dagger... but I don't know if I can convince an independent craftsman.

Before that, I hardly knew the blacksmith.

If I take it upon myself to say that Mel is okay, and I lose my workshop instead of my arm, it won't be fashionable, and it's dangerous if I don't check it out.

Shall we take a break?

Tell Golden and the others to take a break, prepare a tea substitute, and then take Mel back to the back of the workshop.

"Mel. I'm sorry to ask you this, but how are you doing as Mel's blacksmith?"

"Are you an arm?... I don't know what to say, but I think you have an arm of your own."

It's unusual for Mel, who has a modest personality, and he feels very confident.I guess you've worked hard enough to have the pride of a blacksmith.

"Are you sure you're good enough to convince those three?"

"... no, they've seen my work, too.I don't think I can convince myself, because I've been told many times that I can't reach my father's arm. ”

Well, it's only natural that you're less skilled than Mel's dad.It is wrong to compare in the first place.

"That's no problem." If you complain, I'll ask Golden and the others to shoot more swords than Mel's father. "

If you have more skills than Mel's father, you don't have to work with the three of you, and if you tell Mel not to do what he can't do, he'll shut up.

But I didn't seem to have the skills to win the tournament with the power of bamboo.

Besides, I haven't learned the art of the workshop yet.

"The technique of the workshop is a technique that has been passed down from generation to generation in this workshop?"Didn't you learn that? "

"First of all, it was my father's policy to be able to make basic and proper weapons.I was taught verbally by my sick father, but it hasn't taken shape yet. ”

I see, did you get sick before you taught me properly?Even if you explain the secret technique verbally, it's not easy to give it shape.

Knowing the situation, Golden must be thinking of bringing them back.

If we complete it, Golden-san will be able to retreat, but when will we be able to master it?

“There are so many nasty parts that I don't even know when I'll be able to shape them.”

It's oral, isn't it?

"Can't Mel teach Mel?You've seen the work of blacksmiths for generations, haven't you? "

"Mel asked me, but unfortunately I can't help you."I can give you tons of advice on temperature, timing, ingredients, etc., but I don't understand the details. ”

That's true, too. If it's Mel, you should ask Mel first.

"... Mel, you still have your father's work, right?"In the meantime, let's summon Nomos and talk to him. "

I think I can handle it if I talk to Nomos about the metal.What a dirt spirits, and I lived a very long life.

You know the proportions of the alloy, so you'll have more plausible advice than I do.

What do you want?

I was ready to summon Nomos, but I was in a terrible mood.

Well, even though it was difficult to face each other and hide, it would be embarrassing to be summoned to where the opponent was.

I'll make a promise to offer you a drink later.

"Nomos, I'm sorry, but check this out."

Mel's father's work.

There was a slight gradient in the blade, and Nomos was shown a dagger that felt a strange beauty.

"What?... Hmm, it's not like Damascus."What's wrong with this? "

... heh? Something I think I heard from Nomos's mouth, something I've heard somewhere before.
