333 completion




 Making the remaining two pieces of the iron core. I've gotten used to this part and finished it quickly.
 Today, I'll finish hammering the skin iron. It took some time, but we managed to finish before nightfall, since we needed to shape twelve plates in total for three quarters.

 The next day, Samija and the others took Anne to go hunting. Anne will probably go back to the empire after going to the capital, and since only Anne and I are going to the capital, there is no other day for Samija and the others to go somewhere together.
 I have to make a spear, but I thought we should have a picnic together, and I told her so, but she said she was afraid to go when people were working, so she went out to hunt as a task.
 I don't care if you catch something or not, so long as you take it easy.

Have a good day.
Bye.

 We'll see you guys off. Krull and Lucy followed us for a walk. Anne waved happily, "I'm off! It seemed a little impressive to me that this was the last time I would see Anne waving her hand.

 Forged iron is attached to the prism-shaped core iron. I can't do all four sides at once, but at my working speed, it's not impossible to heat up another side while I'm working on one side, as long as the temperature doesn't rise too high.
 This is also possible thanks to the magic-powered Fugo.

 It was about time for lunch when I finished the two pieces of iron skin, so I ate the soup I had made for breakfast, reheated with some ingredients, and talked with Rike.

"Master, you're working faster than ever.
I'm getting used to it.
Can't you make a lot of the same kind of food?
The work itself takes a lot of time, so you don't want to do it as much as possible. ....... If you keep the production the same and don't use different materials for the heart and skin like this time, it might not take much time.
I see. But then it won't be much different from what we've been making so far.
Yeah, I guess so.

 If it's the same as what we're making now, then it's better. If it's the same as what we're making now, then it's better.

Even if it's not a special order, I'll consider it if someone wants a Northern style spear.
That's true. It's not going to be very good.

 Maybe it's because I'm indifferent to such things, or maybe it's because I'm a dwarf, but Lychee's judgment in this area is more severe.
He said, "You should be paid fairly for a fair product. I don't disagree with that, but I tend to feel like I'm relying on cheats, and I tend to say, "I don't care how much it costs. I think I need to work on this.

 After a quick cleanup of lunch, I continued my work. I have to finish it by the time the sun sets.

 Heat it up and pound it to shape. While I'm beating, I'll put the next one in the fireplace and heat it up little by little to shorten the time.

All right, the ear is ready.

 As he said this, he looked out the window. It looks like I have time to make the stave and the handle now. The assembly can be done on the move at worst.

 The pointy end should be hard, and the shape should be a cap. I kept it simple, since it would be useless to add any elaborate decoration. I relied on my abilities to make four identical ones.
 For the pattern, I used the first pattern as a reference, and selected well-selected wood from the garden to make four of them.
 Let's make one for now.

 Insert them into the handle as in the prototype, hammer in the nails, and wrap the leather strap tightly around the top. I decided to fasten the pegs. It is not something that can be repaired so often.
 Thus a spear was completed.

I think I need to test it.
"Just in case?
Yeah.

 I could do it myself, but I'd rather ask Helen to do it. Just as I was thinking this, I heard a clanging sound from the forge. That means the door of the house is open.

Just in time. I'll ask Helen.
"Right.

 I picked up my finished spear and went to greet the others.
