"Well, ...... and . Now that I have some money, I hope I can buy a good sword with it.

　I muttered to myself as I left the guild.

"300 gold coins and some ......!　Kurt, how rich are you?
No, I'm not. I was born and raised in a rural village, with normal parents.
So why are you so numb to money ......?

　Am I paralyzed?

　300 gold coins is a lot of money.
　Apparently, the value of money hasn't changed that much since the last time I lived, so I know that much.

　But if you want to buy a good sword, you can't buy it with 300 gold coins.
　For example, the magic sword Riadzik was priced at 5000 gold coins.
　It is said that a single swing of the sword can destroy a country. But only in places without good wards.

　...... Well, I made that magic sword...

"Kurt. Don't you think you should try to make it yourself?

　Marise asks.

"Marise!　It's not that easy to make a sword!
That's true, but ...... I have a feeling Kurt could do it.
No, you can't!　Kurt is a wizard.　He's not a blacksmith.
He can make it.
"What?

　Lara's eyes widen.
　Lara's eyes widen. The action is so big, I can't get enough of it.

I've been trying to get a sword for a while now, but I just can't seem to get it right. So I decided it would be faster to make my own, so I learned.
You don't think it's faster to make one, do you? ......
It is said that it takes 20 years of hard training to become a full-fledged blacksmith.

　Marise crosses her arms as she answers.
　You'll have to train for 20 years to become a full-fledged blacksmith.　I'll be doing odd jobs until then! I'm sure you've been trained inefficiently by some stubborn craftsman, right?

　There were people like that in the past, too.
　After the magic revolution, it became commonplace to add magic to weapons, so these craftsmen were naturally weeded out. .......
　It's because they don't want to absorb new things.

You can make it this time, too. But I don't have enough material. In order to make a sword that I'm happy with, I'll have to go through at least 100 layers of the Treasure Labyrinth.

　But it's a pretty small labyrinth, so it's unlikely that I'll even make it to the 100th level.
　This time, buying the sword is just a stopgap until we get there.

As usual, Kurt says the most outrageous things without hesitation.
"I don't think Kurt can do 100 layers, can he?

　Lara and Marise were surprised, but if they trained their magic well, they could reach the 100th level on their own.

　Let's get back to the story.

"So, ......, do you know if there's a good weapons shop in King's Landing?

　When I asked, Lara and Marise asked almost simultaneously.

"Yes, I know!　I know of a weapons shop in King's Landing that is said to be the best in ...... the world!
That weapons shop is famous. It's so famous that customers come from all over the world to buy their weapons.

　Wow.
　That sounds promising.

Let's get going. Both of you, show me the way.
"Yes!

　Yes!

　We arrived at the weapons shop they had mentioned, but when we walked in, I was astonished.

"This is the best weapons store in the world, ......?

　I went into several other weapon shops before I came here.
　They were more like ......, which to me is a junk shop, but they had a little better stuff than .......
　But they were all too low level.

"Mmm, boy. Are you admiring my weapons?　But I only sell weapons to those I'm satisfied with.

　A man who looked like a shopkeeper appeared and said to us.

"These are the weapons of the master craftsman, Mr. Abel.
"They are all excellent pieces.

　Lara was holding a sword and Marise was holding a bow.

　I'm not sure what to make of that. ...... Neither of those two even grant magic, you know?
　You're using orichalcone, which is a typical brittle metal.
　Do you really think so?

　I'm not going to say anything about it, because I'm sure it would upset the owner.

Do you have any weapons ......?

　But still, I didn't give up on my search for a weapon, and found one in an inconspicuous spot around the corner.

"...... This looks like it could be of some use.

　Grab your sword.


　It's no wonder orichalcon is used. It seems that magic metals made from magic stones are not common in this world.
　I used the Analyze magic to look into the details of the sword.

"Well, kid. Do you like the sword?

　Before I knew it, the shopkeeper came up to me and asked me that.

"Yes.
"It's my most prized weapon. It's my most prized weapon and I've kept it out of sight. ...... What makes you think that?

　The shopkeeper gives me a suspicious look.

I'm sure you've spent a lot of time on it. You must have spent a lot of time on it. It's been done very carefully and is still 87% pure. You can clearly see the care that was taken down to the last micron.
Kid, you know what I'm talking about. You know what I'm talking about. I don't care about purity, but ......

　The owner smiled and said.

"I like it!　I like that. I didn't know you could see that at first glance.　I'll sell you one of my prized possessions!　I'll sell you one of my most prized possessions, my famous sword, the Enmapeya!

　You call yourself a great sword? .......

　It's not that good of a quality if you compare it to what was common knowledge a thousand years ago.
　But it's definitely the most decent thing I've ever seen in my reincarnated life.
　So.

"Yes. I'll buy this one. What's the price?
"Don't be surprised to hear: ...... 100 gold coins!　I'll give you every penny!
"Here are 100 gold pieces. Please check.
100 gold pieces is a bit steep for a child, isn't it?　But you'll have to work hard to buy this sword!　I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure you'll be able to do it if you work as an adventurer for ten years.

　The shopkeeper rolled his eyes.

　He's a funny guy.
　I said I'd buy it in cash.

"You're a child of nobility, ......!　That makes sense. He's probably a gifted blacksmith.

　The shopkeeper crossed his arms and shivered lightly.
　I'm not a nobleman, and I don't aspire to be a blacksmith. .......

"Well then, from now on, that sword belongs to the boy!　You'd better take good care of it.
Thank you, sir.

　I'll bow my head.
　I grabbed the sword again and held it up to the light.

Kurt, you did it!　You look great.
"Yes, it's cool. Not ......, Lara!　Weapons don't need to be cool!　It's all about functionality!
What? Cool or cute is better.

　Lara and Marise were making some noise, but I was completely done with my analysis.

"Well, ......... So, let's start with this sword.
Hmm?
"I'll have it processed.

　When I said that, the shopkeeper's eyes widened even more.
