“I think we should get ready?”
I told my viewers this as we walked through the Oni village after parting with lty.
“That lty, she’s the strongest in the world right now. The title used to be Shuten’s, but now it’s lty’s. I heard a rumor from an NPC in the adventurers’ guild a while ago that she is the type who uses a lot of grand magic.”
“They said it was strong enough to scorch an entire field in a real fight.”
“I know it’s impossible! And I expect that a single punch will probably kill . Not only with a punch or a kick, but even a slap or a flick would probably kill .”
The estimated level of lty can be described in one word: [UNKNOWN].
The story of the NPCs and the world setting are summarized in an unofficial wiki created by volunteers, which I had the opportunity to read in my spare ti; however, there is almost no description of lty’s power.
The only thing I know is that lty seems to use magic on a scale that’s so devastating to the point that she cannot control it.
She had already defeated an apostle on her own. It was told that she had wiped out the apostles, who had not been weakened at all in a pure confrontation of power, but in exchange, permanent scorched earth was said to have been ford.
“So, I consider using a counter in this fight.”
“I do have a way! One of the Oni dances has the ability to stop from dying for 30 seconds. So I want to use this as the core of my strategy.”
The [Oni no Mai] fifth dance – Douji no Mai, is an extraordinary skill that gives the player a stalling effect for 30 seconds. And within that ti fra, the user won’t die from direct damage.
However, poison, bleeding, heat, cold, and other chip damage can kill you. Still, not dying from enemy attacks for a certain amount of ti is a big advantage.
“….Fufufu, it seems like you’re in need of so advice….”
“Nyowah!??”
The voice that ca from behind so suddenly made let out an unintentionally funny sound.
“Are you that surprised..?”
“I am…”
I turned around and peered down to see Haruru standing there with a doubtful look on her face,
If you’re wondering who she is, she’s a peculiar girl who also happens to be my exclusive blacksmith.
She’s still dressed in rags as usual, but the mace she’s dragging around seems a little different this ti.
“I see that lty Bloodheart has arrived. ……”
“Do you know her?”
“I’ve been watching the stream…”
“I see… Haruru, are you still in the village?”
“I haven’t talked about the reward yet…. and I also had other business in the village, so I just stopped by….”
I owe Haruru and Konekomaru a debt of gratitude for the free equipnt they made for for the battle against Moon Wolf.
We have already talked about returning that favor with materials from the moon wolf, and since it’s a deal that I’ve agreed to and accepted, I was planning to visit Haruru by the end of today or tomorrow.
But, well, if she ca on her own, that would be neat.
“Oh, yes. This is Haruru, the smith who makes my weapons. I’ve introduced her before, but I know there are a lot of viewers today who don’t know her.”
< There are a lot of people here today, so it’s no wonder there’s a lot of explaining.>
“fufufu… I may look like this, but I’m an adult y’know… “
“Is that so…?”
Well, I an… there were certainly a lot of things that were uncharacteristic of a child, so I had a vague idea that Haruru was an adult.
In this ga, even height can be changed if you want to, but it’s not really my hobby to pry into a player’s real life.
Even among strears, it’s rare to find soone like and Rin-chan who did not hide our address.
“Before we get to the rewards…. I’ll tell you a little story regarding your fight with lty… As it is, I’m pretty sure you’ll get overrun…”
“True.”
“That’s why I have to bring out my newest creation…. the na is [Teardrop Weapon]!”
Boom! What was taken out was a piece of equipnt that, at first glance, looked just like the [Ouma]. But that was only a matter of appearance. When I held it in my hands, it was clearly a lightweight weapon.
Since it was Haruru’s creation, it must have so hidden chanism in it. I wonder if the reason why she matched the appearance was to make it look fake version of Ouma.
“This one has a chanism that allows you to put just one item inside …….”
“I see I see…so that ans…?”
“This one purpose is to be used as a surprise attack….”
“Oh, that would be great. How much is it, by the way?”
“Its material did not cost much, and it’s just a… sample, so it’s free…”
I accepted Haruru’s request to transfer the item that flew from her hand and received the [Teardrop Weapon].
Item: Teardrop Weapon, Prototype #1
Rarity: Uncommon – PM
Attribute: –
Required Strength Value: 645
Attack Power: 210
Durability Value: 150/150
Classification: [Blunt Weapon] [One-Handed Mace]
Weapon Skill: [Item Storage]
This is the first in a series of teardrop weapons created by Haruru, the blacksmith.
It incorporates a chanism that causes stored items to scatter when damaged.
“The performance itself is so-so. Especially if we compare it to Ouma, this is rather weak.”
“It can’t be helped… the performance is reduced because I forced a cavity in the weapon.”
“You’re having a hard ti with this, aren’t you?”
“Trial and error are my greatest joy…”
Haruru spoke happily, and there was not the slightest hint of stress over failures or things not going as planned.
“Well, since you’re here, please choose your portion of rewards. I’m sure Konekomaru will want the fur-type material, so I’m thinking of handing out materials such as claws and fangs that could be used in weapon creation.”
“Sure… I’ll take those, but …… I want sothing else right now.”
“Oh, that’s right, I’ll give you one [Soul]. As I promised, a rare drop for you.”
“Nghh…… Sukuna is really a person who is not good at negotiation….”
“N? I’ve already got three, and I’d like to give you my appreciation.”
“I have no reason to say no… so I’ll take it…… I’m a freelance blacksmith with a lot of things on my back…. if it is like this then… it’s not a give and take situation….”
She was unusually mumbling and complaining …what was she concerned about?
“I’m going to use this for now to consider equipnt for Sukuna …It’s been a while since we’ve manufactured a nad weapon…”
“Is that all right with you? Ah, don’t get wrong, I’m happy.”
“Based on the estimated value of the materials that Drago has put on the market… the Moon Wolf dropped material is already more than enough… so this rare drop is not necessary…. Well…. let’s view this as an investnt to continue to build a good relationship…..”
The Ouma costs approximately 45 million iris when combined with the red wolf attire. Thus even if you consider it half price, I still owe her more than 20,000,000 iris.
As expected from a level 150 drop item, it appears to be worth that much. Though, to be honest, I was worried about the Moon Wolf common drop value before I heard Haruru’s words.
Still, considering that it is so valuable that I don’t know when I will be able to get it again, I could not help but agree with her.
“I will believe if Haruru already said that much, but if you need more materials or sothing, let know. I’ll go get it if it’s within my reach.”
“That goes without saying, of course…. anyway, thank you….”
After that, when I sent the selected items and [Soul] to Haruru, she smiled happily, saying sothing like “huehehehe…” and her cheeks were tearing up.
===*
Sukuna will still give the Soul to Haruru even if she doesn’t have three of them. It’s a promise, after all.
