Tensei Shite Inaka de Slowlife wo Okuritai

About four days have passed since we commissioned Rael and Lou, the newcomers of Ellman's Studio, to make battle pencils, but reports of their completion have not yet come.

I thought that it would be completed in three days because Erman said that it was not so difficult, but I am in charge of a newcomer. It's an interrupting job and it will take some time.

The deadline is one week and there is still time.

If you are thinking about the illustrations to be written on the battle pencil and the text to be written on the surface, time will soon pass.

I thought so and tried to return to my room from the living room, and came across Battari and Dad Nord at the entrance.

Will you go out now? No, the clothes are the same as during the training. That means you may be invited to practice.

"Al, just right-"

"I will not practice"

"It's not a lesson"

When he was about to run upstairs, Dad Nord sighed.

Is n’t it a lesson? While you are dressed for a lesson?

I snorted at the lie that was too clear.

"That's a lie. So I'm going to rehearse and catch it where I'm off guard, like Elinora unnie."

"I don't do that. I'm just trying to invite me to split the wood."

"Firewood chopping?"

Let's pretend to be chopping wood and practice ... Because Nord is different from his mother, who traps in double and triple.

"Oh, I think we'll be making a lot of firewood right now because the fireplace has been up and we're consuming a lot of firewood. Al hasn't left his home recently? "

Pia, I practiced four days ago, and three days ago I went to Ellman's workshop for relocation.

Feels that the practice is not counted as a go-out among Dad Nord, and no one would have noticed that he went out due to relocation.

So I seem to have been branded by Father Nord as a seven-year-old who is sloppy at his residence.

I don't mind, but my seven-year-old son is worried about his lazyness.

"Well, let's do it a little."

Speaking of wood chopping, I remember watching it when I went to Thor's house.

Actually, I just wanted to do a little.

"Well then, change into warm clothes. I'm waiting in the courtyard."

"all right"

I nodded to Father Nord's words and returned to my room again.

◆

When I changed into warm clothes and went out, Dad Nord placed a stump in the courtyard.

I guess they brought a stump from the barn as a platform for breaking firewood.

There is also firewood for splitting. There's quite a bit, but are you going to break it all?

"Hey, Nord. I brought a hatchet for the shaven."

I was thinking about that and Bartolo came with an ax.

"Wow! If Bartolo has an ax, it's too good for him!"

"Hey, what do you mean?"

If a large man with strong muscles and a strong face with a meaningful wildness holds an ax, the power can be raised many times. That was it.

"Bartolo is good at using axes and battle axes.

"Don't laugh at Nord"

Don't you remember the old days of Bartolo?

Is the weapon used during the adventures of Bartolo an ax?

If you put on a mask, you're a big man who comes out on the 13th of December.

If this were midnight, I would have screamed and escaped.

"Well, I can't match a sword anyway. A muddy ax, a battle ax, a hammer, and so on."

"surely"

"I'm gonna do it even with chopping wood."

I think it was better that I was convinced without putting a break. Bartolo, who was in a bad mood, slammed the ax he brought with him, as if hitting eight.

The sharp edge pierces at a right angle with a scotch sound.

Anyway, this is a light ax that I brought for me. He tries hard to pull out the stabbed ax, but he is not surprised. What a harassment!

"I can't get this sober"

"It sounds like you're a little teasing. I'll apologize later."

"Yeah"

Dr. Nord swiftly pulled out when he was struggling with an ax that he didn't like.

Rather than apologizing, I couldn't understand what principle Nord had pulled out easily, so I tended to return.

"Well, let's start chopping wood. Do you know how to chop wood?"

"I've seen Thor split, but please explain just in case"

Toll's way may be special, and I'd like to ask if there is a proper way.

"Take care that you don't force yourself to break with an ax. If you don't, you just have to break it with magic, a different method, or a tool. Don't force yourself to avoid injury."

"all right"

When I nodded, Dad Nord handed a hatchet and gloves.

"It's a good idea to put your gloves on your hands so that they don't get stuck, because they will reduce injuries if the ax hits."

That said, it seemed like chopping wood with an ax was very dangerous.

"It's okay. It's a blade-proof glove made from demonic material, so it will minimize even if you hit it."

"So that's it"

It is a bit safe to be told that it is made of special materials of demons. The material performance in this world is really amazing.

I was relieved of Father Nord's words and put on my gloves in both hands.

It seems unlikely that your hand will slip from the handle because of its rubbery texture. What kind of monster material is it?

Dad Nord put medium wood on the stump.

"I'll start with the easy way first."

Dad Nord smashed his ax on the wood.

Then, the cutting edge pierces with a scotch, lifts the firewood as it is and hits the stump.

Every time a light sound was heard, the blade cut into it and the firewood was broken in half.

"It looks like this"

"It's not like Thor's swinging down from the top."

"Oh, that's how you use it to break bigger firewood."

Dad Nord said, and brought a little big firewood and set it up.

When I left a little, I spread my ax with my legs wide about my shoulders and my right foot forward.

Then a pleasant sound was heard and the firewood was broken cleanly.

"Oh, this feels like splitting firewood."

"Is that OK? I'll do it if the first guy can do it properly."

That's why I decided to try it.

First is the simple method described by Father Nord.

Although it is a child's hatchet, it weighs one kilogram and has a sharp edge. If you don't concentrate, you can get hurt.

First, put the firewood on the stump, and align the cutting edge with it to visualize the trajectory.

"When you swing the ax down, it's a little bit closer."

"all right"

She swings down the ax a little in front of her as advised by her father.

Then the ax cut into the wood.

After that, just lift up the firewood as it is and hit it on the stump.

"That's it ... it's not broken at all"

Strange. When Nord was doing it, it was cracked easily.

There is no sign of breaking at all even if you hit it many times. I feel that the cutting edge is firmly fixed.

"Because the edge is biting diagonally. If it doesn't hit vertically, the power will escape."

As Dad Nord pointed out, my ax stuck diagonally against the wood.

"That's right. Let's do it vertically next time."

Pull out the pierced ax and shake the blade over the same crack.

However, the blade edge was stabbed diagonally and the power was not transmitted well.

"I just insert the blade vertically ..."

"It's surprisingly difficult, but you can get used to it."

At a distance, Dad Nord was cracking firewood in the same way as if he were setting an example.

Oh, it looks easy when you look at it. That means that it needs the experience and skills that are backed.

The chopping of wood is also deep.
