at a liquor store in the ever-summer town of Ramaton.
"So, what are we going to do?
Maurice asked Philip and Cologne.
"Ash defeated the Demon King brilliantly. But we haven't been able to collect any ingredients."
To fulfill their promise to Ash, Maurice and the others were traveling around the world looking for ingredients for The Magic Wand That Never Breaks (Withers Rod).
But I can hardly find the ingredients.
Now I don't have a face to match Ash.
"Well, by appointment, you're gonna use the Red Dragon scales, right?
"I'm going to. I thought I could find a shield with red dragon scales..."
I already toured enough armor stores not to count with both hands, but I couldn't find any armor made of red dragon scales.
Even if I find a scale though, I'm going to run into a sticky problem this time.
"If I could get the scales safely... Ash would have defeated the Red Dragon when I was twelve, wouldn't he?
If it were in Ash's hands, it would easily snap a magic wand made of red dragon scales.
If that happens, Ash should feel sorry for 'the masters made it for me and I broke it...'
As a master, you can't let your beloved disciple think like that.
"Wow, I don't think I'll break it unless I try to break it deliberately..."
"I agree with Cologne.... It's just that Ash-kun's request is' The Magic Wand That Never Breaks' hey. Honestly, I don't think there's anything in this world that Ashkun can't break."
"... So what should I use as an ingredient?
"I won't have a hard time figuring that out..."
"Well, it is..."
Maurice and Philip get their heads upset about what's going on.
It's easier than "The Last Day (Ragnarok)," where the survival of the world isn't at stake, but Ash's request may be a more difficult issue to achieve.
"Ha, how about compressing something readily available, like soil, for example, to increase strength, compress, increase strength and repeat...?
Maurice and the others, at some point annoyed by Cologne's opinion, looked up hah.
"Sure, then you can start making canes right away! Good idea, Cologne!
"Oh, I was just trying to say something..."
Cologne blushes her cheeks lightly.
"I guess the problem is it's going to be so heavy that it's impossible"
Philip is right.
You're going to need a ton of soil to make Ash's desired "magic wand that will never break," and there's a limit to it when it comes to compressing.
I can't even imagine the exact size and weight of the finished product.
It's just, well...
"As far as Ash is concerned, I don't think weight or size matters."
It's about Ash. How big and how heavy a magic wand is, it must swing lightly.
"Ash-kun is going to lift anything."
"Well, with magic, you can make it lighter to some extent."
Hope lingers in the minds of Maurice and the others when a thread is found to solve a problem that seemed difficult to achieve.
"If you're going to use soil as an ingredient, you might want to do some waterproof magic just in case."
"I don't know the ultimate size, but I think we should point the tip so we can draw a beautiful loon"
"If I put in a cool pattern, I'm sure you'll be happy!
As soon as we find the thread to solve the problem and it gets easier mentally, one idea after another springs up.
... Will the 'spire' be close to the image of the finished product?
That's how Maurice and the others, who consolidated the concept of a magic wand that would never break, agreed that they wanted to create a magic wand of the highest quality in any case, and embarked on a journey to find quality soil.
