The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

Thirteenth tier, near the Mithril mine, we were baking Frost Dragon meat and having a late lunch.

Frost dragon meat with a secret dwarf meat sauce was tingly spicy and well accentuated in flavor. Then it feels like it's getting hot from the inside of my body. Thankful for the thirteenth tier of cold air.

Mr. Bell and Marcus were masculine and thoughtful, and Early and Sakilis chewed and behaved elegantly when they were small.

By the way, around the mines a little further away, a bunch of dwarves are laughing and discussing lavishly eating the frost dragon meat we recommended. The meat sauce we're eating is from you over there.

They say these Dwarves are a combat mining group that has been listening to the story of the Mithril mines in the Great Cavity. At last, it will also mean that people have normally reached here to dig Mithrills. Well, it's not even what we claim to own originally.

Around the mine were simple protective fences and pitfalls that the Dwarves thought were made of, and by the way there were ice wolves, white lizards, and frost dragon carcasses. If you ask me why I'm leaving it, I can't take it home anyway, so they just take the demon stones and the minimum amount of meat and leave it there.

There is a limit to the amount that can be carried without storage or portals. Naturally what they mining group carry is a misrill, so I guess that means nothing else is in your eyes. Well, it looks like we've recovered the Demon Stone.

Anyway, by the time we got to this mine, we had about five Frost Dragons. The two heads are Mr. Bell, and the one is the collaborative effect of Sakilis and Early. And the two remaining heads, one of which Marcus stabbed Todome after restricting his movements with Early's restraint, Sakilis restraint-assisted magic.

Though I beat him with a mace many times, he struggled with the thickness of Frost Dragon's armor. Along the way, there was an act of using a sword with added fire attributes to cut off his tail, but he managed to knock it down.

Teamwork wasn't bad. It was simply Mace's lack of power. After switching to a sword, I can tell you that it was a battle that saw the slaughter in Fire Enchant or the auxiliary magic and growth of Sakilis.

The last five heads were also successfully dealt with and defeated by the three of us. I guess I'm getting used to Frost Dragon opponents. I was watching the movement closely.

Now, the original purpose of defeating the Frost Dragon is fulfilled, so I'm not just going home after dinner, but as far as I'm concerned, I need a little more help.

The reason I came all the way to this thirteenth hierarchy can be more than just defeating Frost Dragon. I gave the Rookies a little more rest and I took Mr. Bell and Squire's Blao and left the Mithrill Mine.

"So, Gin. Why don't you tell me what you're up to?

Mr. Bell has asked. I answered as I climbed a small hill of rocky skin.

"Cobolt."

It is a small subrace. Although considered a dog face in the fantasy neighborhood, the cobolts of this world, similar to goblins, have taken over the fairy tribal power of the original world. It has the power to turn minerals into cobalts.

That applies to most minerals, and if you can turn misrilled silver into cobalt, it's a huge loss, but conversely, if you can turn iron, copper, etc. into cobalt, it would be a better substitute than the original minerals.

Except for the advanced magic blacksmiths, which are difficult to process, the treasure is rotten.

"Those guys are magical, they convert minerals into cobalts"

"Hmm."

"So, I had one thought. Can cobolts convert already processed metals into cobalt metals…"

"Is that true!?

Mr. Bell opened his eyes. If that's the case, it's a pretty shocking story.

Metal weapons such as iron or copper, for example. When this can be converted into cobalt, the quality of the weapon is improved at once. If armor and the like can also be turned into cobalt metal, its defense jumps as well.

If it can be applied to an army's equipment, that army will be reinforced in one piece. It means you can lead a few steps within the military of your time.

"I'm still guessing. There would be weapons and protective equipment that Cobolt has, wouldn't there?

Loot retrieved from the Kobolts that defeated them near this mine. Its metal weapons are all cobalt metal, and if you're an adventurer, you'd love to take them down and get them.... However, metal was often inconsistent as a weapon, and some of them were inconvenient substitutes to use as they were.

"That, I thought the Kobolts were making their own, but it seems so different. I used to collect it and rebuild it in pieces so that I could use it, but most of it seems to be picking it up. I mean, the adventurers are going into the dungeon, throwing them away, or Cobolt picking up and using weapons that have died and left them..."

Supporting that guess is the material of a weapon composed of nothing but cobalt metal. It was a wooden part, a bone ornament, a small demon stone... these were not too uniform. Wherever it came from, there was also a mix that the swords of the soldiers would be prototypes.

"I see."

Mr. Bell nodded.

"So, what are you going to do with Kobolt? Do you have the soul nerve to catch him and keep him?

"If it makes sense, it does, but I think it's a hassle to take care of. And having a cobolt would definitely be a topic of discussion."

"So what are we gonna do?

"Easier to use Cobolt"

I stroked the head of the little golem that was following me. Blao took a strange trick of wearing his little neck without a look on his face.

"Add Cobolt to Dungeon Core (Safilo) Guardian"

The Warcraft that Saphiro can summon, the Dungeon Guardian, is under the control of the Core. That behavior can also be ordered by Saphiro in general, so if you can summon and serve Kobolt, you don't normally have to catch or tutor the living Kobolt. The only thing that pays is me or Saphiro's magic.

"Well, we haven't decided we can definitely turn metal into cobalt yet, so we might end up wasting our legs."

However, if this attempt is successful, it will be possible to replace the iron and other items recovered from the oak army of the Wangdu Defense Battle with the superior metal, Cobalt... your dreams will swell.

"So I'm going to hunt Kobolt. The body of that cobolt is converted into magic by Brao's copy core."

In the dungeon core used for the DC rod, that's how I increased my registered Warcraft, but even the copy core. So ok?

'So no problem, master. It's just that I'm a copy, less capable than the main unit, so to record as a full-scale Guardian, let me absorb at least ten. "

said Blao in boyish mechanical audio. Hmm, a little cumbersome, but fortunately, the Mithril mine is close by here.

And, from that mine, the sound of hammering. Apparently, the Dwarves finished their break and let the mining resume.

If so, the Cobolts, the miners' haters, will come caught by this sound. You can ambush it there. It is also the extermination of the cobolts that stand in the way of the Dwarves' mining, two birds with one stone.
