Mel was troubled by three troublesome blacksmiths, so as a teacher, I tried to put my neck into it, but the other person was a type of artisan who could not understand the story.I gave up persuasion and changed my policy to prove Mel's skill as a craftsman... I feel like I've dug up something incredible...

"Nomos, did you say Damascus?"

Hmm? When I said the word Damascus, Mel opened her eyes and solidified after she twitched.

Mel also seems to know the word Damascus.

Hmm, is Damascus famous in this world?

I've heard that the original formula has been lost on Earth, but if you look at Mel's reaction, it may have been lost here as well.

Hmm. This isn't about that, but you're conscious of Damascus.

Not really... I've seen a damascus steel knife reproduced in such a crisp way, but it was cool to see a unique pattern on the blade.

Meanwhile, Mel's father's work...... has a slight pale gradient floating on the blade.I think this is beautiful, but if you think of it as Damascus steel, you can also be convinced that it must be there.

"Mer. Nomos says this is Damascus, but do you have any idea?"

"Ah, yes! My ancestors have seen the sword of Damascus, and so they have fascinated me with it!"And then all the time... erm... "

Mel, who was stuck to my words, restarted, but it seemed like a temper.

But I can guess even if I don't put it together.In short, Mel's ancestors must have seen Damascus' sword and studied Damascus as a family for generations.

A pale gradient is the result of that research, and even that result seems to be valuable in today's world?Let's check it out.

"Nomos. When was Damascus used?"Or is there a blacksmith who is still building it? "

"It's not the time before the earth of death."Besides, it wasn't commonly used, but it was strictly controlled and monopolized by some country.The kingdom is ruined. Isn't there a blacksmith who makes it?At least I don't know. "

You mean it was a strategic weapon?

It's a common pattern that a country has been destroyed and its formula has been lost.

It would have been too long ago to imagine the earth of death before it was born.It is not unlikely that Mel's workshop has continued since that time, but even if the manufacturing method has been lost, Damascus itself remains, and it seems more likely that Mel's ancestors saw it.

... Hmm, Damascus is a very metal, and there is a great spirit of earth in front of me who seems to know how to make it.

In other words, if Mel revives Damascus' formula, Golden who hasn't even gotten to Damascus will have to admit defeat...

I see, I see the victory equation!

And I want a cool sword from Damascus. I can't use it.

“Nomos, teach Mel how to make Damascus.”

It may not feel like cheating for Mel's family, who have studied Damascus for generations, but it's a waste not to grab it when you have the answers in front of you.

I don't mind, but it's impossible to make Damascus in Mel.

Huh?

Suddenly the victory equation collapsed.

"In the first place, Damascus is an alloy that combines a small amount of Adamantite, Oriharkon, Mithril, and various other metals, and is mixed in a magical process, but remains unmixed."

That's not like Damascus I know.

It's impossible to make that delicate metal in Mel, and Merrall and Merrill Serio are not strong enough.

It seems to be a rather difficult metal to handle.

”Um... Damascus is so amazing?”

"Although it uses a small amount of rare metals, it is an alloy that has the power to line up with the Oriharkon with most of the steel."There's no reason why it's not amazing. "

Are you in line with Oriharkon?... I understand how awesome it is, but for me to have the means to get Oriharkon, I think Oriharkon is fine. It makes me think.

Can Mel and the others build Nomos if they can't?

They said it was a rare metal, but even if it wasn't enough, they could ask the labyrinth core to release it.

"Before that, I might be able to get the core out of Damascus Steel itself..."

I can build it.

It's a big spirits.

I guess Nomos could make it.Then let Nomos make it... "

"Huh?... Even if Damascus Steel were to be built, if I were to revive the metal formulas lining up with Oriharkon... Merle, would you not be kidnapped?"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,Instead, the damage of the Disaster Class is likely to spread to the Labyrinth City.... "

"Phew..."

Mel gave a frightened voice and made her expression faint.

Apparently, I imagined a burning labyrinth city.The city burned... and she murmured as she trembled.

"I've seen Damascus kept as a national treasure in the castle vault, so it definitely makes a lot of noise."I don't think it's going to be easy because of Yuta's back, but I wonder if it's impossible to go outside alone. "

Sylphy, who had been silent until now instead of Nomos, made sure that it would be a commotion.

It was probably wild to ask why I knew about the castle's vault.

Um, will you teach Nomos how to make Damascus?

Mel shook her head sideways.

Well, I guess so. Even though the workshop may be revived, it doesn't fit the price of being kidnapped after being revived.

You're back on the pulse.

... no, you can convince those three, so don't you have to take the risk to recreate the real Damascus?

“Nomos, can we build something closer to Damascus than the knife we showed you, without the use of rare metals?”

Well, it's possible. But in that case, it would only be something with two levels of improved performance.

I don't know how much the second stage is, but even Mel's father's work makes me yearn for it.It would be enough if it was more than that.

Rather, if the performance improves too much, it will still be targeted.

Can you even make it Mel?

It depends on Mel, but with the help of Meral and Merrill Serio, it would be possible.

"I see... Mel, do you want to try first?"

"Yes, yes! Ah... but is it okay for me?"I'm still immature compared to my peers, and I don't think I deserve a valuable lesson. ”

Mel replied with joy, and then suddenly became anxious and negative.The range of emotions is huge.

"... you're a confident blacksmith, aren't you?"

Even though I say immature, I compare it to my master class.That means the blacksmiths around here aren't in my sight.

"Eh, what do you mean?"

"No, it's nothing."Well, I don't know if I'm qualified, but I'm not going to ask Nomos for anything other than Mel, so I don't think there's any blacksmith who can teach me anything other than Mel. "

Even if I made a mistake, I didn't think I'd take it off for the three Goldens.

I mean, if Mel doesn't want it, Damascus' knowledge is likely to be forever in the dark.

Unless you can talk to spirits like me, or you can penetrate the sanctuary with guts and gain knowledge, the possibilities are hopeless.

"...... Master, Master Nomos, thank you very much"

Mel came to the same conclusion as me, and after a little thought she decided to take the lesson.

Well, it's hard to get Nomos's teachings here.You've just returned, but you're going to take Mel to paradise again.

I just added casting training, but I'm busy trying Damascus and Mel.

“Merle, I'm going to paradise again, but can I make plans?”

"Oh, it's hard right away."

That's true, isn't it? Even if it is not popular, it will not be easy to extend the holiday as the owner of one workshop.

"I have a certain amount of time, because I'm also leaving after doing a lot of detailed errands in the labyrinth city."In the meantime, can you give me an idea? "

It hasn't been long since I've been in the Labyrinth City, but there are plenty of places I'd like to show my face.There will be some time to spare.

"Yes, it's okay, I'll take care of it!"

Nomos, thank you for doing this.

"Hmm! I don't think I have the right to teach Yuta's disciple on purpose."

In short, you want me to give you more alcohol.

"... while I'm here, I'll buy all the labyrinth city liquor and go back."How about half of it? "

"... well, that's fine, you have to buy a lot of it."

It costs money, but the spirits are easy to save.

The Spirit is invisible, untouchable, and incapable of speaking. Most of the things that contribute to alcohol will be dealt with, so I wonder if God did that.

"All right, I promise."

Now that Nomos is convinced, it's time for me to take some time.

"Well then, Merle, it's time for me to go back to my inn."I'll show my face again in about three days. "

“Yes, I'll give you some indication by then.”

I skipped my schedule briefly, and as I headed out, I saw Golden sitting in her spare time after drinking tea.

That's right, Damascus took my consciousness, but I kept these people waiting.

We need to get these people out of here before we go to Mr. Torque's lodge.

... for the time being, it's a secret that Mel's going out again.
