Next day

"Good morning. Can I help you?

When I showed my face to the store, there were shadows gathered in the kitchen.

"Ah, Store Manager"

"Good morning ~"

This is it.

What the three daughters of the earners saw vacating the place was a sausage served on a plate on a workbench. Lots of connections and rolls of tuna. That's three. Quite a lot.

"My neighbor's wife is celebrating her contract with Removal Bird."

"And the deodorant solution the manager left yesterday. You also said that just because it's slime bait doesn't fit the crack."

"It seems to have been very helpful, and he just left me with a great smile."

"I see you just misplaced it"

"I'm going to use this for lunch today"

Mr. Sherma, who was in front of the fridge, declared. Fulfilling and baking? Or are you gonna turn it into soup? Either way, I'm looking forward to it.

I'm going back to work. I broke up with my three daughters, and I'm going to the office. I get a report from Mr Callum.

"Looks like the rumors have spread."

"Only the facts, so it wasn't that difficult. How things are going to work for a while."

"Really...... so what about the store?

"There is no such change as this. There's no jamming and... Oh, speaking of which, you don't sell deodorant liquids? I had a wife who asked."

"You need deodorant? I wonder if you heard from Mr. Sieg...... I can guarantee effectiveness and safety, but can you sell it?

"It seems that some people actually want it. It's not even unrelated to the store's work. I think you can arrange it in the store."

"What are the burdens on sales?

"It's a task that anyone can do if it's about bottled, and the Cokins seem to be doing a lot of research in their free time. You won't have a problem asking in between."

"… just in case, we'll start tomorrow with Mr. Cokin and check the safety again. So if there doesn't seem to be a problem, let's put it down a little bit. I'll also have a board for the account."

Think about selling deodorant solution. Until lunch was ready, the work for this proceeded secretly in the back of the store.

After lunch

"Come on, I don't know what to do this afternoon..."

I'm out of work. Absolutely not much, but they took it from there today as a teaching material for Mr. Cokin and his future candidate manager.

Without a job here... do you encourage me to make a house (a trap)?

On the way back to the abandoned pit with that in mind.

"Isn't it Lyoma?"

"Hello, Asagi. Are you off today?

"Uhm. Sometimes I need a day to rest my body. Is Lyoma still at work today?

"I'm just leaving because I'm out of work."

"Was it? That would be just fine."

Mr. Asagi removed a bottle from the bath wrap he had in large part.

"Would Lyoma have only received the blessing of a liquor god? Hand me this."

"Smell of alcohol...... maybe sake?

"Oh! Did you know that? This was made in the home of the awkward, Digginjo. It's a kind of liquor called Nihonsch."

"Thank you for this."

"It's a good idea. I hear you're lucky to have a drink with someone who's been blessed by a liquor god."

Speaking of which, was such a story in common sense?

"Then I'll have a drink wishing Mr. Asagi luck."

I miss sake. It's been a while since I've had a drink.

"Nevertheless, Lyoma must be familiar with the homeland of the awkward"

"Because my grandparents used to listen to me."

"Was it?"

"... yes, that changes the story, where is Mr. Asagi getting the knife?

I decided to ask what I had always wanted to hear so I wouldn't bore out about my identity. I have a defense thing to do, and I need a proper knife.

"Awkward people regularly use things sent from their homeland. Does Lyoma want a knife? Or use it as a weapon?

"I crave it to use"

Although I learned how to handle knives, this country is dominated by long swords and such. I didn't even leave a knife at the Tigger Martial Arts Store I went to last time.

"Unfortunately, you can't get it around here. If you go to the Wang capital, there are shops to handle it... but the knife is a weapon to fight in the home of the awkward, a work of art proud of outside the country, a symbol of our Samurai, and is considered a soul.

Therefore, although the export of the knife is done, if you get it, you need a lot of money. Even if Lyoma is making money in the store, she will wear out if she keeps using it. Every time I buy it, my expenses don't get ridiculous. Awkward people have also bought from Wangdu's weapons store in the past... but they can't afford to buy it again every time.

I hear that some external blacksmiths have also been allowed to learn the craftsmanship of a mason, but the gate is narrow... at least the awkward don't know each other. Neither is direct negotiation realistic. "

"Is there any way to manage to get it cheaper on a regular basis?

"Mmm... there must have been an example of being a disciple of the genre and receiving a offering. But unfortunately, the awkward are still in training. I'm not qualified to take an apprentice, and I don't have a qualified acquaintance here."

In the first place, Mr. Asagi is out of his hometown for training, and during his training, he seems to be tight and restricted from connecting with his hometown. All you are allowed to do is send a few letters informing you of your safety and the liquor on the edge. He said that the knife was only allowed as an exception because of its necessity.

"Where did Lyoma learn to handle a knife? I think the shortest way to do that is to rely on it."

"My grandfather could have struck a knife. And how to use a knife."

"I see... is that what happened when you thought you were strangely familiar with the contents?"

Let's do that.

But when you do, you can still buy an expensive knife or you can replace your weapon.

"Really...... thank you"

"Sorry I couldn't help you"

It's not Mr. Asagi's fault. Thanking you for giving away your precious alcohol, the occasion broke up.

But I get out of the city and think I'm on a peaceful path with nothing.

... I don't know if I can make it...

Modern knife materials are jade steel (sometimes), and charcoal and sand iron are needed to make jade steel.

Charcoal can be made. Even this is a former Japanese salarier. It is unknown that he fantasized about a calm life while burning charcoal after retiring, treasured in the Ghanaian forest for winter fuel.

As for sand iron, it is easier, typically black iron tetraoxide (...). This is not the same composition as iron oxide used for metal and iron feeding, but it is no different to iron (Fe) and oxygen (O) compounds. Therefore, if we use alchemy, we can turn iron oxide, which can be obtained in any amount of scrap pits, into a material.

Knowledge also… I have. My father's profession was masonry. I used to watch that at a young age, and once they took me to the iron mill. I've been forced to help when my body gets some form, and I've been taught how to hit a knife in secret.

It's just that you were overlooked for lack of talent early.

There are materials and knowledge. But there is no technology. So you won't be able to make enough for practical use. Nothing can be done, at least overnight. If you're serious about making it, do you want to apprentice somewhere... but it takes a long time.

But I think it might be interesting to try that on your own, knowing that.

"I should have asked if that would catch on to regulation..."

Next time, I'll ask Mr. Asagi.

That's what I decided, and I remembered.

It's not a knife, but it seemed like it could be used...

"'Item Box'"

We're going back to the abandoned pit. No, no, no. Free the submissive in the square, looking for something for one purpose.

I should have let it go in here............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Pull out the once defeated bandit, Merzen's spear. Slightly long but well made, no rust or distortion. It's a little long but light in weight. The material isn't iron... flame ore? I don't know the appraisal results well. This next time I ask someone... doesn't look bad to use as a weapon for now.

If you roll down a short slope that's not so much a slope as a slope, you crawl back. I'll make sure that there aren't any slimes nearby that I'm free to spend some time with, like metal slime, and I'll shake them a little.

"... no problem getting around. But I knew..."

My father tells me that the moves I inherited are those of one samurai who survived the Warring States era if I correct the ex. The family seemed to be quite so and he was good at martial arts and interested in academics as well. But good thing he wasn't a man, he lived quite freely, and he jumped out of the house or was kicked out... he lived in quite a bit of extreme poverty.

He said that it was only when he was young and bloody that he made it good, but he changed his mind later in life. No money, no wife, no children. Arms don't make the world famous. Looking back, I realized that I had nothing to leave behind about what I had done.

At the end of the day, I went to leave my moves and knowledge behind, and the samurai spent the rest of his life searching for and mentoring disciples.

And for the warring samurai he is said to have gone through, the primary weapon is the spear. The knife was just a spare weapon if you lost your spear. So the samurai, I inherited the move, and I can use the spear. But to be honest, knives are easier to handle. All this is not the way of the times...... nor is it.

If you say so... is it my father's fault?

From my father I inherited knives, spears, sticks, sidebars, bows, hand swords, clams, hand-to-hand fights, and other dark objects. My father had set priorities when teaching these moves. And most importantly, hand-to-hand fighting and knives. Until I delivered these to some extent, I didn't let them touch anything else, and when I started to learn, I was strictly ordered to increase my knife training time.

The reason is not because the person was a mason, but whether it is realistically modern and easy to use.

In the first place, weapons technique is a technique when you use a weapon, with that weapon in your possession. However, in modern society it is forbidden to possess and carry weapons, and in some places they are checked with various devices, such as metal detectors. This is a time when even a single stick is subject to professional qualities if you carry it with you.

Martial arts that can be used without weapons. And even in modern times, possession was recognized as a work of art, shorter than spears and sticks, giving top priority to swords that you can still do if you want to hide them... I think.

I've never actually heard of a reason from my father, but the way he thought was a lot out of common sense in the public. Outside, he wore a cat well and was highly regarded...

"If I slaughtered people with a knife I struck, how much can I slay?"

………………

"Kurrrrrrrrrrrr"

I think I heard my father...? No...

I don't see anybody around. There's no sign of anyone. The submissive demons are just thoughtfully amazing, and no one of them feels strange. What do you mean, I surprised the Removal Birds?

"... are you out of your mind"

There are no abnormalities when I try walking around. I guess I just felt that way because I remembered my father.

"If I had my father's knife... I should have wished it before I was reincarnated..."

I want to test practicality in the way it's supposed to be used. But if you kill people, you can't hit them with a knife. That's why I don't slay you.

Regardless of his personality, his father was the kind of person who lived to strike the best knife. He should have excelled because his arms as a mason would be appreciated as well. I hope that's on hand, but don't stand in regret.

"Let's stop thinking...... I need to be able to take care of it even if it's in the woods by now...... yeah.... Yes."

This spear was a magic weapon, wasn't it? Let's find out if we can use magic to produce some magic.

Turning the spearhead of interest to the spear made the experiment a little more enjoyable.

Fire comes out.... Is this spear the magic of fire? Strike out... I could. It's a fireball. What else? Is it just two fires and a fireball? The amount of magic that can be included is........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Sounds like the magic you can get into is good for every attribute.... but slightly, I guess it consumes less magic with magic of the same attribute as magic. It seems efficient to use fire without doing anything extra.

This is how I looked up Merzen's spear, or if I was playing.

"The sun is setting..."

Is it time to end this?

... Play this far and say this, but it doesn't seem like a very useful feature. Magic weapons are as easy to use magic as alchemy, but they don't accommodate.

I think it's good when people who can't use magic deal with warcraft that only works with magic. But I'd rather use fire magic myself because I'm free to use a wide range of powers and types... interesting, but not as much as a normal spear as a weapon.

That concludes, the spear goes inside the item box.

Well, we have to prepare dinner...
