On Saturday, I finished breakfast and logged into the game to find Bran in bed. I didn't expect Bran to do this.

But the peaceful time is broken by the massive amount of email info. It woke Bran up because of it.

''Hmm...Lord, good morning...''

Oh. Good morning.

Me and Bran look at each other, and Bran jumps up, his face red.

''Ah... ah... Lord. This is... well... it's a regular and forced thing for Lily-sama and the others to sleep together...''

'Ah. Well, Lily and the others have been sneaking in so far... come to think of it, we haven't had Noah and Livina.

Then the bottom of my bed suddenly swells up. Then Noah shows his face.

'...Good morning.

'Good morning... you don't think you've been lurking in my shadow all this time?

...hmm. Watching over Livina.

Apparently, Livina is the only one who has been rejected from getting into bed due to strong objections from Ion and Setia. Noah is apparently keeping a watchful eye on Livina, who may be sneaking in. I think he's being too cautious.

'I'm sorry for doing this, even though Lily-sama and the others told me to do it.

Don't apologize. You'd rather not?

No, no!　It was very warm and easy to sleep on.

'That's good to hear. We've got plenty of time today, but let's have dinner together first.

Before that, I checked my email and it was something that wanted to take me to the mine. I'd need it to equip Ix, Bran, etc., so I had no choice.

When I went downstairs, there were a lot of players.

'Please take me to the mine!

If you don't have anything else to do, go outside and wait for me.

They're all gone. It's crazy! Guys!

Oh, thank God...

It was hard to keep up...

Apparently, Lily and Aeon have missed the run. From the kitchen, the fairy group, including Kazuki, Love Fire and Setia, appear. Everyone else comes out of the upstairs room. Lily and the others are complaining, and we all have breakfast together. I was in charge of today's meal. Here's the dish I made.

Baked Shark Meat with Cheese: Rare 4 Dishes Item D
Effect: Recovery of 30% of fullness, increased agility for 2 hours (medium)
Grilled shark meat, topped with cheese, melted and melted.

Roasted venison: rare 4 Cuisine Grade D
Effect: 30% recovery of satiety, 2-hour muscle strength increase (medium)
A dish of venison that has been salted for a day, grilled on all sides and cut into pieces. The sauce is fish sauce.

Cheese Salad with Lettuce and Tomatoes: Rare 4 Cuisine Item D
Effect: Restore 30% of fullness and increase magic power for 2 hours (medium)
Garnished with lettuce and tomatoes and coated with cheese powder on top.

The cheese powder is something I could have made if I had used powdered cheese. In case you're wondering, powdering didn't change the effect.

Now that the food is ready, I call Hephaistos and Regin, and Hephaistos is dying. Are you okay?

It's okay. I've only accumulated about 200 requests to create weapons, so... oh, the weapons you asked for, Tact-san, are ready.

Oh! Lilly's hammer and Bran's shield!

Leapling's Hammer: Rarity 4 Hammer Quality E
Weight: 40 Endurance Value: 50 Attack Power: 30
Additional Effect: Physical Destruction
A hammer made of iron. A very effective weapon against heavy but hard enemies.
The sides of the hammer are emblazoned with the clan's leafling emblem.

Reepling's Water Shield: rarity 4, shield quality E
Weight: 15 Endurance Value: 50 Defense: 20
Additional effect: Fire resistance
Shield made of iron and hermit crab shells. The shield is lighter than a hermit crab shell, and is resistant to fire attacks.
The emblem of the clan "Leapling" is quenched in the front of the shield.

Hermit Crab Carapace ...... Ahhh, that's the one that was on the beach in Blue Men. You dropped something like that. I was skipping down memory lane.

"Impressive as always. Have you been keeping this hermit crab shell?

'Yes, sir. I knew that one day Mr. Takuto and the others would have a shield, so I was prepared.

They're...they're doing it. I'm so happy about this. As expected of the blacksmithing gods!

Lily, Bran. Your new weapon!

"Mugu?

Lily turns to me with her mouth full of meat.

'We'll talk about it after we've finished eating, won't we?

Yeah.

Everyone smiled at that look on Lily's face and breakfast was over.

'Really!　All right, let's give it a try.

You know what happens when you brandish a weapon in a store, right?

Lily froze at my words and quietly lowered the hammer she had been swinging. Well done.

Then Bran asks a question.

'What's going to happen?'

No food for a month?

'I suspect it's a small amount of rice every day as a result of anticipating the Master's thoughts.

Setia is incorrect. The quintessential Ix understands me.

And Hephaistos, I couldn't show you yesterday, but it's new material.

'New material!　What is it?!

Hephaistos is back. I show him the Demonic Firestone, the Flame Wolf Claw, and the Fire Wolf Claw that I got from mining yesterday.

''This... this... can make a pretty strong fire weapon!

I see. I'll take the sword and the dagger. For Lily and the love fire.

I understand!

Yay!

'Wow!　I'm looking forward to it!

I'm glad you two are happy. But now the magic ice stone will be used on Ion. I'm sure Ion won't say anything because he knows that.

''Good for them. Love Fire.

'Yes!　Sis!

Since it was a good time, we decided to discuss the magic sword.

''The theory was taught to me by Setia-san, so I can make one, but I don't have enough materials.

''A fire magic sword or an ice magic sword is most likely, but the fire magic sword is a gemstone and the ice magic sword doesn't have any ice weapon material.

I know, I know...

The jewel in the ice is still a sapphire?

'Yes. The size is fine, so you can make treasure balls, right?　What do you want to do?

What would be the point of making it?

Do you have one?

What did you say?

The jewel is a magical power amplifier. And we have this, don't we?

Setia takes out her wand. Ahhh.........Surely it wouldn't be a problem if you put it on your staff......originally it was said that they made a magic sword based on the staff.

''Well, wait!　Setia, it's not fair!　You can even make accessories for Setia.　We have rights too!

Aeon is upset. He's still going after it. And the usual battle begins.

'We'll have to hold off on this one for now. Let's wait until we get more gems.

'It's tough. Master Tact.

Setia, are you laughing?

'Oh, and how would you like to be engraved today?'

Well... so can you ask for Lily's hairpiece?

'Yay!　Setia!　Please!

'Yes, yes. Don't hold it against me if I hit a bad one, okay?

I don't think that's true for Lily, do you? Well, I guess it's important to mention.

Mark!

The elven letters are engraved on Lily's hairpiece. Effect.

Flower Hair Ornament: rarity level 1 Decoration quality F-.
Marking: Increased defense (medium)
A fashionable item to put in your hair.

It's a not-so-obvious effect. Well, Lily tends to get damaged a lot, so I guess it's a good idea.

Thank you!　Setia!

And he's happy about it. And that's probably for the best. Well then, let's talk about today's plan.

''As for today's plan, after summoning the magic stone, I think we'll head to the Iji Mine. It's just right for testing Lily's hammer, and Ix's weapons have iron ore in them.

Okay!

So, once the material is collected, we'll head to the battleship?

'Oh. After that, I think I'll explore the island where the poison is gone. I'll get my revenge on the Jumbo Eels, so keep that in mind.

Hmm. I'm looking forward to it.

Setia is an elf, you know. You're still interested in the island where the poison is gone.

'I won't lose today!

Ion tasted the bitterness of that time, too.

'I think the night will be a continuation of the Yellow Ossa Mountains. So come on then, Lily, Ix and Bran.

Yes!
Yes, Master.
I understand.

I get paid first for the people who were waiting for me before that and send them through the warp gate. I look at Bran and tell him it's rough, but I'll close it if I don't hurry, and he hurries to dive in.

After that, I head to the Beast Demon Guild, and I change the earthen stone I got from the Rock Hermit Club and the fire stone I got yesterday into earthen and fire demon stones, and summon the demon stones. I'll start with the earth magic stone.

What kind of character will come? Chiffon used to say he was a mole or something... but I'd like to see a character who can forge if possible.

The magic circle shines in ochre. First or success... come on, what the hell!

The magic circle is going to run out of light... hmm? Summoned? Is this the same pattern as the meal?

"Well... you were summoned, right?

I don't know!

It looked like it, but...

There's no sign of them in range. Master.

Ix's answer is a failure. Screw that! I don't need this stunt!

Huh... first time summoning an earth magic stone, failure works... the damage is even bigger than that because I've been summoning attribute magic stones consistently until now. Oh well. If it failed, it would succeed next time.

I set the fire magic stone and summon the magic stone.

The magic circle glows red. This time the summoning will be a success. I wonder what it will be?

The light from the magic circle goes out I look around but there's nothing to see...I see Ix.

'There's no response in range of detection, sir. Master.

I tasted my first two losses in a row of attribute magic stones today. I headed to the Iji Mine with sadness.
