55 Episode 54 Silver Sword






 Third day.
 As a last check, we set up the bait several times, but there were no more demons on it.
 The detection of the staff was complete and it was confirmed that all the Bloodmouths were dead.

''Well, I didn't expect it to be over so soon........ Thank you, Lelius! You made it happen!

 The staff member who screams with joy grabs my hand and swings it around in a circle.
 I didn't expect the poisonous attacks to be as active as they were.

 If there were a large number of Bloodmouths, that would be enough to make a living.
 If I wanted to, I could make a living if I only had to go around all the cities and accomplish the sewer requests.

 That's not a bad idea, but I've got a new goal in mind.

''I'll pay you through the guild for the reward. ........Only, you took out the Bloodmouth a lot earlier than planned. It will take a little while to prepare the reward, but are you alright?
I don't mind, sir.
''Well I see. I'll contact the guild as well. Well then, thank you.

 I left the administration office.

'Ah, done, done. Thanks to Lelius, I'll be able to relax and rest for a while.
Is that so?
Yeah. Originally, I was going to be working on the sewerage system for a month or so, so I'll be able to take it easy until I can get on a new schedule. I can take it easy until I can get on a new schedule.
Okay.
Thanks to Lelius. And Lelius, you make weapons for us, don't you?
'Yes. I suppose you will allow me to speak to the Bishop?
Yeah. He said we should talk. Just that he'll call you later through me when he has a better time.
I understand. Thank you for everything.
No, not at all.
Can I ask you a question? What kind of weapon do you want to use?
A sword, maybe?
Okay.

 Mr. Linial stretched lightly.

'I'll see you next time then. 'The Migratory Bird Innkeeper' is fine, right?'
Yes, sir.

 I left Mr. Linial, and I still had time until the late shift.
 Let's go back to my room for now.

 When I got back to my room, I check my level.
 Level 20, I guess.
 I'm sure it has something to do with the experience I gained during the bloodmouth hunt.

 The new equipment that could be made was marked with a silver mark.
 It was a weapon that could be created by consuming magic stones, so I tried it out right away.

 At the same time, I'm going to create an armor.
 It's a rubber dragon's leather armor.

 The primary goal is to create a sword that can slay this thing.
 ........However, if I can't slash with the Silver Sword S rank, it would be difficult to do so with my current weapons.
 However, he also said that it would be good to try things out.

 I'll have no choice but to try out some combinations that I hadn't tried before.
 First of all, I'll create a Silver Sword S rank without a hitch.

 It's closer to silver than the sword I've been using so far.
 I've heard that silver magic ore is more sturdy than steel magic ore.
 Just silver is not that sturdy.

 However, when it contains magic power, it is said to be easier to process and still be sturdy.
 Using the silver sword, I try to cut the rubber dragon leather armor for now.
 However, I can't cut it.

 The leather armor expands and contracts to match my sword.
 It expands and contracts in time with my sword, but it doesn't reach the body. Even if I put all my strength into it, it was difficult to cut it off.
 ........This is amazing.

 I'd like to mass-produce it too, but I don't have any rubber dragon material, so I can only make leather armor.
 For now, I'm going to combine the Silver Sword with the materials I've obtained so far to make a sword.

 Goblin, Red Wolf, Sahagin, Poison Snake....
 I tried combining each of these materials with the Silver Sword to create a new sword, but it was no good.
 As expected, the sharpest increase was when I mixed Poison Snake's fangs with it.

 However, it's difficult to do more than this in the current situation.
 For now, I'll create a transparent no sword. Originally, this sword had an invisibility attached to it.

 I created this sword and wielded it, but it didn't feel very formidable.
 From the feel of the sword, it was about as sharp as an iron and steel.

 This was not good enough.
 The goal is to make a sharper sword.

 The reason I'm so obsessed with this is also because I'm making a weapon for Mr. Linial.
 For the first time, I'm making a weapon for someone else.
 My first step as a blacksmith. I want to make a sword worthy of it.

 Is there anything else I can do now?
 

 A new demon.........
 It was just then. Val, who had been sleeping in the room, woke up.

 When she realized I was there, she looked at me happily.

''Var?''

 No, it's not that I'm trying to beat Val.
 What I came up with was the part where Baa used more than one material.
 He also used a bit of slime liquid, he said.

 That's something I could do, right?
 Let's just try it for now.
 I'm going to try combining a silver sword with a goblin and a red wolf fang.

 No one has ever made a weapon before, so I have to try and do it by hand.
 Soon, the Silver Sword was made.

 Wulfrin Silver Sword, S Rank.

 Shake it lightly. It's lighter than a normal silver sword.
 And I feel that the sharpness of the sword has improved.

 ...I see. So by combining multiple materials, a more powerful weapon will be created?
 Then we can just add more to it.
 Once it's disassembled, we add the Sahagin.

 However, the weapon wasn't created and a failed sword was created.
 ........Three is not good enough? Or is it because I'm not at my current level?

 Then I tried a couple of times, but more than three seemed difficult.
 It's no use. I just have to find the best combination with two.
 I try various combinations and then swing my sword.

 With the Goblin and Sahagin, the sword was a little heavier, but still powerful.
 With the Goblin and Poison Snake, it's not much different from the Red Wolf's sword. However, this one was granted a poison attack from the start. It's a D-rank poison attack, so it doesn't seem to be very useful.
 The Wolf and Poison Snake are lighter swords, with only an added poison attack... probably the best looking ones.

 And so we arrived at a combination of Sahagin and Red Wolf.
 A light and powerful sword was created.
 Perhaps because Sahagin's scales were blue, the sword has a slight blue tinge to it.

 I wielded it lightly, but it felt comfortable in my hand.
 I guess I'm making one for myself now.
 With that sword, I swing it into the Rubber Dragon Leather Armor.

 The first time, it was palpable, but not enough to break it.
 He swung it out in succession. He hadn't gotten any scratches with his previous weapons, but now he was definitely making scrapes.
 .........I guess this is the best sword I can make right now.

 The finished sword........is for me for now.
 Now it's Linial-san's sword that I'm going to make.

 I'm going to make this sword with Linial-san in mind.
 I'm going to repeat this process over and over again.
 It's the biggest S-ranked sword I'll ever make.

 I won't compromise.
 Is it because I am trying to combine several materials?
 After 30 minutes of repeated creation and disassembly, I finally finished it.

 Now it's just a matter of what skills to give it.
 In order to do so, I had to figure out what new skills to give it first.
