Go into the blacksmithing room and take out a hammer and materials from the menu screen, by the way, I asked Rai to make the blacksmithing room for me.

I synthesize a wooden material and a silver ore, beat it with a hammer, stretch it out a little by little, tie a magic string tightly around both ends and it's done!


Weapon] Resistol (bow)

Effect] Atk+65 Def+72

Bonus: None.


I finished the bow, but I thought it wasn't very good because when I fought Sarah in the town of Cagalli, the gunner form of Magna uses magic, so I used magic potions on the way to recover the magic.

I've learned two things after fighting the spirits this time.

【1】It's difficult to know when to recover magic power.


【2】You have to find a way to shoot without using magic.


The second thing that can be done is to shoot without magic is to use a bow, and I'm not sure if this one has the same power as Magna, but it will be a lot easier if you have the ability to fire continuously as a bonus.

I make the bow a few times, fail to make it, and repeat, and Sarah calls me from behind.

'You're in a place like this, Serena said she's out of the bath. I hear you're having some trouble.

I explain to Sarah about the bonus effect of the bow and she nods. The expression on her face is something I can think of.

'Then there's a better way.'

'Really? I want you to tell me!

"You will have to take a bath before I can teach you, Master.

After promising Sarah that she would show her a better way later, they headed to the bathroom.

In the changing room, Ren took off his clothes. He banged Magna against the wall. When she opens the door, she sees Mount Fuji on the wall. Fuji on the wall and a tub of tortoise-shells decorating the shower faucet.

I wash my head and body, then take a quick dip in the prototype electric bath, which is rather numb. Next, I try out the jetted tub, which is also quite nice.

I'm like, "Yeah! I think I could put this on the ladies' bath! But,

I'm curious about the method Sarah mentioned.


'What exactly is that good way?'

It was a nice temperature to take a bath. I'm glad I made an automatic water heater.

'Oh?' Master, you've been soaking in the bath, haven't you, Gosal?

Rai comes out of the back entrance. Rai finishes washing her head and body and takes a bath.

'How's the bath? I hope you like the hot water.

"Good gosal! I never thought it would be so pleasant to soak in hot water. Ange-dono told me that Serena and the others were happy to drink a cup of coffee milk after a bath.

Coffee milk was out of this world. I built an automatic refrigeration and mixed something that resembled coffee and milk and put it in a glass bottle to chill. Serena and the others seemed to love it.

'Rai, can you and Ange come to the forge room with me after this? I wasn't able to introduce you to Sarah because I couldn't do it with Croella.

Yes, I'll call Master Ange after my bath.

Afterwards I put my hands on my hips after taking a bath and drank coffee milk before heading to the blacksmithing room.


◆ ◆ ◆


Mmmm, that feels good!

Serena was standing tall in the women's bath, in a large bath. Rem and Chloe were playing with a duck toy and a demon toy.

'Yoo-hoo Serena!'
'Ange! Good night.

Anju had also come to take a bath. When I soaked in the bath, Ange said, "I'm going to come alive again," she said.

It's true that this hot water feels great, and it's perfect for playing with Rem.
Was the bath a playground?
'Ange no! A bath is a bath to get rid of the fatigue of the day.
'The human race...not. So that's what Serena and her friends' bath culture is all about.

Serena is relieved when Ange is convinced and Mew takes a bath from the back of the room.

''Oh, Serena-sama and Ange-sama, that's an unusual combination.''
''It was always late at night when the quest ended, so this time I finished early, so I put in with Ange... hmm!

Serena stopped in the middle of her words. Chloe was curious and called out to her.

'What's going on, Serena?'
Mew is...
'Miss Serena? What is wrong with me?
''Mmmm...mmmm...hey...your breasts are getting big again!

Two fruits were floating in the water as Mew soaked in the bath. He looks at Ange's chest.

DAWN!

And once again, Serena looks at Miu's chest.

DAWN!

Then Serena looks at her chest.

Sooooooooooooooooooo!


"My dear Serena. I am a dragonborn, or as the humans call it, a growing man.
What growth spurt? You're bigger than the last time I saw you!

When I met Mew once before the guild was formed, I was a fruit about the size of Serena, but for some reason, it was already big when I met Ren.

''Don't worry Serena-sama. My current chest is a 'D'. Since I am a dragon, my growth will stop here.
Excuse me.

Serena touched Miu Miu's chest, but the size wasn't a 'D'.

''Is it really a 'D'...''
Serena will grow up... and so will you.
Serena, grow up!
'Ange, Rem, I'll do my best! Me!

Serena paused in her gut and Miu was envious of Serena's appearance.
　
'This still makes my shoulders pretty stiff, I like to be as big as Serena-sama.
Yeah? Mew, what did you say?
No, my Serena, I am rooting for you to grow up, my dear Serena.
'What? Yeah! Thank you!

Serena turned a happy smile on her face when Mew said she would support her. It would be better for Serena if she kept quiet like this, Mew thought in the bath.




　◆ ◆ ◆

I went back and introduced Sarah to Ange and Rai. She is a great spirit of fire. I told them I would find a way to return them to their world. It's a good idea. I asked them what Sara's good ideas were.

"First, since we already made a deal with the summons and spirits, Master will take the hammer in hand, and Rai and Anju will take this one.

I handed them both a slightly iridescent hammer.

'What is this?' I've never seen it before, but it's beautiful.

This is the [Drimhammer], this hammer knows what the master wants to create and gives form to what they want to create [an ancient artifact].

Sure, it's beautiful, like Ange said, and it's in possession of an artifact.

'Then take the master composite and hit it three times with a hammer.

I'll hit it three times as Sarah told me to, then Sarah tells Rae and Ange to hit it once each.

Ange and Rai take turns hitting it with the hammer, and then the composite object starts to glow with the same rainbow color as the hammer!

'Great! What I have struck is shining, gosal!

'Master, take what you have created in your head and swing it through your memory with a hammer.

I created the bow I wanted to make and swung the hammer with my memory.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The thing that was shining in rainbow colors changed its appearance.

【Weapon】 Thunderbird's bow.

Effect] Atk+150 Def+110

Bonus] Continuous fire performance (Medium) Additional lightning damage

Great! This is the effect of the Drimhammer, or maybe it wouldn't have been possible without Rai and Ange's powers.

'Good for you, Master.'

Congratulations, Master.

When you create more powerful weapons in the future, you may call upon us, Master, and I am always welcome to be called upon.

I thanked the three of them and called upon them to help me build another powerful weapon in the future.

It's important for Sarah and the others to put the master first, so it can't be helped but to let him know if he has any requests or other requirements.

Afterwards, I made a replacement bow for the bow and a replacement arrow.

I'm going to buy the failed bow from a weapons store tomorrow.

I went back to my room from the forge and went straight to bed and went to sleep.



It had been a few days since he finished the bow and cleaned up the requests that had accumulated.

I checked the performance of the bow in the defeat quest and it was so much better than I expected, it could shoot arrows continuously and with a little bit of magic, countless arrows could be released.

The bow itself is also light and easy to use, the guild Azuma has also recently increased its requests, and it has also said "it's important to help each other out" to send requests to Randy, and he has accepted them.

Lem has also been training with Croella recently, and he's been thinking about going with her again when she asks him to defeat a monster, but Serena seems to be stopping him from doing so.

Ange says that thanks to Sarah, who joined the team in the town of Cagali, it's easier to handle after the request.

Thanks to Sarah and Anju, the requests that have piled up from being away from home have been completed faster. Occasionally, Rai would take on human form and take requests with them.

Rai said, "Training is necessary, but the actual battle is better training. Rai met with Serena and the others (in human form) and asked them to add him to the guild for a time, as they were running out of money to travel to various countries.

Serena immediately agrees, and on days when I don't have a request, Rae will play mock fights with Randy and the others and play with Rem and the others in the form of a beast.

And now I was outside fishing.


I was fishing for fish for dinner at a river near the guild, but I didn't catch any.

'Ren, I have a request for you! It's an awesome request this time.

Did you get that great a request?

Serena pulled out a white piece of paper from her pocket and read it.







''Dear Guild Azuma members.

The Guild Association has a requirement for you to join Guild Azuma.
　　　　　　　　　
We would like you to participate in the [Roundtable], which will take place in a few days. You can attend or not attend.

We will contact you as soon as we have a location.

From the Guild Association Rune Verde Headquarters.　　










The Guild Association has asked me to participate in that roundtable, and Serena says it's a nice request.

'A roundtable is when the larger guilds in each branch get together to discuss things, but our guild is not big enough yet to be established.'

It's true that our guild only started a few weeks ago.
We don't have a lot of members, so there are still a few requests that we can't handle, and we're not even a branch, so how can we be called in?


We're not a big guild, but our guild is becoming quite famous.
Serena's expression becomes smug.

''Does that mean the guilds will meet up with each other to talk about the future?

There's that too, but it's a difficult request, and Randy told me that he'd be listening to reports from guilds in neighboring countries and discussing that kind of thing.

Serena is a little excited because this is the first time she's been invited to this roundtable. Participating in the roundtable will be confirmed, the rod was jiggling, so I pulled the rod and caught a slightly bigger fish, so I went back to the guild with Serena once.

Serena said she would listen to the members' opinions first before deciding whether or not to participate.


Then we go back to the base and give Miu the fish we caught.
All members ate lunch together and then talked.


The next day.


The guild members talked about the roundtable yesterday, and as a result, we decided to participate in the roundtable.

We went to the guild in the morning to go to the guild in the city of Louis to go through the procedures for the roundtable, and Serena went to see Chris at the reception desk.

Good morning! Chris, please arrange for me to join the roundtable.

Okay, now if you could just check this form, place your hand on the tablet and that'll complete the registration process.　

Serena checked the documents before placing her hand on the tablet and this completed the process.

''Nyan. Serena-san, good luck with the roundtable.

"Thank you, Chris, maybe our guild is already famous.


Serena thought it would be a long story to tell Chris to join the roundtable.

We decide to have breakfast at [Cat Hill], we all order a menu.

'I'll have a sandwich with eggs from Lewis.

I am Magma Curry!

The order is put on the table, a generous amount of eggs sticking out of the bread and looking delicious.

Lem ordered the magma curry, which is made by mixing 12 different spices in a pot, which is called curry rice in Japan.

Lem has a spoon and brings the roux and rice to his mouth, and I eat an egg sandwich.

Yes, it's delicious! I've been studying the flavors of this place and I've been thinking about trying to recreate it someday.

Ange and the others are eating well, it's probably good to eat outside once in a while.

'Yo Ren, you're eating here too?'

Randy came in from next to us and sat down in the same seat as us.

'Mr. Randy, I see you're in town in Lewis.
　　　　　　
'Oh! Sometimes I get a craving for the food here (Cat Hill), so I stop by to apply for a request or for a reason to meet with Miss Cele.

It's certainly good enough to make me want to go there, I'll probably stop by after my request is done.

I tell Randy that I'll be joining the roundtable.

'Oh, so Miss Cele will be joining the roundtable too?

Are you joining us, Randy?

Yeah, Gilmouth and two others will be at the roundtable, so one of them will be me.

In the city of Raghu, Dunames is a branch of the city, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Mr. Randy come out.
So, if it's the city of Cagali, will Saria-san and the others join in?

''Also, what's the guild representing the city of Cagali?''

'It's the Guild Grand Centurion, isn't it?

I see that Saria and the others will be joining us.

Guhaaa!

Randy was surprised and froze with his coffee.

''How does Ren know the name of the [Forbidden Witch]!

The Forbidden Witch? Saria-san, I didn't know you had a street name like that.

When I let Randy-san tell me the story of when he met with Saria-san and the others, he looks somewhat convinced.

'She likes interesting things, so I guess I could see the future of Miss Cele and the others participating in the roundtable. Maybe she got curious and was making an excuse to stay at the guild.

Touya said you can see the future with crystals.

After I finished talking to Randy, I met up with Serena, and after we finished shopping for a few things in the city of Lewis.
Return to base.



◆ ◆ ◆


the next day


I've been asked to take the request to the guild, so I decided to accept the request, leaving Ange and the rest of the members to stay behind.

It's a good idea to get on a carriage and head to the village of Boda, where the mayor says that a human-shaped monster appears at night and asks to be exterminated because it's eerie.

From what I've heard, it could be a doppelganger or a low wolf.

Or maybe it's one of the same people I was summoned to, Gosal.

Sarah and Rai were also brought in as members of the monster beast defeating team, but I think it's great that they can deduce just by listening to the request, although Ange is listening to the conversation while reading a book.　

They don't seem to be very interested in hexenbiests.

"I don't know if it's really a hexenbiest in that boda village, but I don't know if it's a hexenbiest or not, but if we can talk about it, I'd like to solve it by talking about it.

''Master, if that hexenbiest is able to talk, if it attacks me, I'll feel free to take it down, just in case the master is in danger.

Ange looked into my face and said this, certainly if the other party was friendly.

'Master, I can see the village now, Gosal.

After telling Anju not to worry, the village was located in the hollow of the plateau looking at the village from the carriage railing.


After arriving at the village, I visited the chief's house to learn more about it.

Thank you, guilds, for accepting my request, I'm Corky, the village chief here.

I asked the village chief Corky what it was about.

He said that he had seen a monster in the village square at night, and he wanted me to keep an eye on him in case he might come out again this evening.

"Ok, Chief Corky, we will guard the village tonight, so please tell the villagers not to go out too much.

We've arranged for you to spend the night, so here's a map.

After talking with the village chief Corky, I got a map and left his house.

I'm glad you've arranged for us to stay the night, so we don't have to decide where we're going to camp today.

It's nice to have a soft bed.

Master, could you show me a map for a moment?

Next to Ange's delight, I handed Sarah a map with a map of where she would be staying.

Sarah looked at the map for a moment and handed it back to me.

'I know where it is, Master, and I will show you where it is.

Yeah? That's enough?

Sara gave me a map and I looked at it and it showed a place to stay away from the chief's house, far away from the village.

(Some distance away?)

Master! I can feel the awesome vibe from where I'm staying!

He spoke to me telepathically from Liara, and that too.
You say you felt a momentary flash of energy from where you were staying.

(Are you sure that's where you'll be staying?)

(Yes, but it was a momentary blip and I couldn't locate it.)

I'm sorry, she apologizes, but I thanked her for teaching me, to which she replied cheerfully.

Sarah buys a guide and goes to the front, then we follow her to the place we'll be staying.

The building was a beautiful building with the same build as the village, but it was made to look familiar and nostalgic somehow.

Then the door moved to the side and came out from inside what would be the entrance came out a girl in a kimono what would be the uniform of the inn with long black hair tied with a red ribbon.

''We have been expecting you. Welcome to the [Yasha's Inn], I've been told by the village chief that you are all members of the guild, I work at this inn, my name is [Ayame], and henceforth, Yoshina, we have a natural hot spring and dinner available at this inn.

Ayame to thank. I felt the same as in Japan, but I knew this was a hot spring resort. Anju and Sarah are next to each other.
Her eyes twinkle.

'The hot springs! I'm looking forward to it.'

The hot spring, as I recall, is a hot spring where you soak yourself in the water from the source. Master, if you would be so kind as to join me before I make my evening rounds.

Ange and Sarah want to go into the hot spring so badly, and I don't feel like the usual Sarah.

"Master-dono, I don't think you can look around without going in,

Yeah, let's go to this inn for a hot spring and then go for a night look around.

Yay!

I understand, Master.

They both responded together, walking into the inn at the last second.

'Ange! Sarah! I'm sorry, Ayame, I've never been to a hot spring before.

And, sir, please call me Ayame, as I'm not much older than you are.

Yes, then, Ayame, you can call me Ren.

Okay, Ren, it'll only take a moment.

Rai and I are going into the inn with Ayame. We have to look around now, but let's take a break until night falls.

Or so I thought.


We were shown to our room at the inn and left our bags in the room, and we went in first, both of us looking forward to the onsen.

Rai went to explore the inn and I called Liara to check for that big sign from earlier.

'There's no reaction, and so far there's no sign of the facility here, but I'll let you know as soon as we get another reaction, master.

There is no sign of a spirit or summoner like Sarah in this facility, but it looks fine.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize you hadn't taken a bath yet.

Ayame walked into the room and put the tea and pastries on the table.

Ayame sat next to me with her legs neatly aligned.
This is the Japanese term for [seiza].

''Oh, I'll take a break in my room for a bit.''
So you're from a faraway city?

I told Ayame about our guild and Serena and the others, and her expression became brighter and more surprised sometimes.

Ayame's expression changed from time to time, which was very interesting.

'Ren amazing! I can't believe Guilmas is my age and he's making a guild, and he's got friends and dragons and slimes and spirits, and they go on adventures and sometimes go to town and eat weapons and tools and good food. It's like talking about a heroic tale! Great!

Ayame's eyes are sparkling, and seeing Ayame's happy face makes me happy too.

'Is Ayame going to another city to go shopping or something?
'I've never gone shopping outside of the village...I only know the inn and the village, but sometimes I ask the travelers and merchants who come to the inn about the outside of the village! Because it's fun to hear that. So if I can't get out, that's okay.

That's why Ayame seemed to enjoy listening to me when I spoke, because I've never been out in the village and all the talk was unusual.　

Ayame ha! I'm sorry.

'I'm sorry I have to make dinner, Ren, but thank you for letting me hear about the outside story again, the outside story...'
All right, let's talk outside again, and I'll tell you about dragons and adventurers.

Ayame chuckled, excuse me and Ayame got up and walked out of the room.

Good, Ayame looked a little depressed but she seemed to be okay.
