"Well, I'm off to the blacksmith today, so I'll leave you to it again.

On the morning of the day ten days had passed since I had ordered the Lunametal sword from the blacksmith.
I said this to Caucasus and Belzebub, and we set out on our separate ways.

"All right.

We'll have fun!

They replied bravely, and flew off to the site of today's commission.



For the past ten days, I've been working with the Caucasians, just going about my business.

It's true that we can split up, but the only thing I wanted to do separately was to go to the forge.

The final exams of the elite academy were coming up soon, so I was waiting on the myotome and flipping through my own vocabulary cards.
Of course, I did what I had to do as a commander.

Other than that, the only thing I contributed to them was to put the monsters they killed into the storage spell.
Well, I suppose that's only a subtle speed-up.

The defeat went quite smoothly, and I was able to finish all the requests I received that day.

Thanks to this, the number of requests I've completed in the past ten days is over 170.
If I can complete all of the requests I've received today, ...... I'll be able to meet the requirements for promotion to B rank in terms of achievements.

The Lunametal swords you ordered will also be completed today.
It may have been a good decision to order three of them.

While I was thinking about this, I saw the building of the ...... blacksmith shop.

I'm going to go get some.



Sorry.


Excuse me.

"Oh, there you are. The sword is ready.

When I entered the blacksmith's building, the blacksmith said that and went to the back room to get the sword.

So that's what he did just by looking at me.
I've only ordered from him twice, but he treats me like a regular customer.

As I was thinking this, the blacksmith came back with three swords.

Here they are. I think I've made it as good as the last one, but I can't confirm the sharpness of the ...... Lunar Metal sword. Do you want to go back and try it out again?

The blacksmith handed me the sword and led me to the testing room.

Thank you for talking so quickly.
I opened the door that the blacksmith unlocked and went into the room for a test slash.



"There's no point in cutting straw now. 　I've got some stuff over there, use it as you like.

As he entered the room, the blacksmith pointed to a pile of metal ingots in the corner of the room and said.
You can find not only mithril, but also adamantite ingots there. ......

...... Seriously, adamantite?
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you need to do to get it.

But that's why it's worth a try.
With that in mind, I grabbed an ingot of adamantite first.

Then, a blacksmith approached me from the entrance of the room.

He said, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, are you serious?　I was just kidding when I said it improved the sharpness. ......

It may be my imagination, but the blacksmith's voice seems to be trembling slightly.

Well, I guess it's okay.
If the adamantite doesn't cut it, you can always use mithril to try and cut it.

In that case, you can judge how much the sharpness has increased by the response.

With that in mind, I grabbed one of the Lunar Metal swords and channeled my divine power.

...... The ease with which the divine power flows is about the same as with the previous sword.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

Then...
The adamantite ingot felt as good as cutting a ...... radish, and I was able to insert the blade.


...... Come to think of it, the last time I tried to cut a mithril ingot here, it felt like cutting a radish.

This time, too, a radish.
It's a radish, after all.

In the midst of my excitement, this thought crossed my mind. ...... I noticed that the Adamantite ingot had been completely cut in half.

I didn't expect it to go this far. ....... Who the hell are you ......?

I'm not sure what to make of this.

This is a great way to get the most out of your day.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

These two swords also passed the divine power as smoothly as the swords I had been using so far, so I decided that there was no need to try slashing with them, and I put all three swords into the storage spell.

Now all that was left was to pay the bill.

I took out 3,000,000 zols from my storage spell and went back to the checkout counter with the blacksmith.

During the checkout process, the blacksmith was grumbling something like, "But I didn't realize it was that sharp. ......" and looked a little sluggish, but after a while we were able to complete the payment.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

...... seems to be going well.
This means that in another two hours, I'll be able to kill the requisites for promotion to B rank.

Looking forward to the promotion, I decided to meet up with Caucasus and the others.
