Chapter 87

Ultrwide area ic Cursed Sword of Fire aside, I decided to start with the confir our future task

If so could be ruined

Fro any mistakes

“First off, HaroldIs it alright with you?”

“……What is it?”

I asked Harold who replied after staring at me carefully

“Substances created fro by alchemy materialize only for a short time in this world

Can this be applied to our current situation as well?”

“Aa, preciousmasses, are about five minutes at most”

“Five minutesSo it’s five minutes after all”

“Lava is about five minutes, but the flaer time and will cause a vicious calamity”

“RightI understand”

That was good

I felt relieved after hearing Harold’s answer

If this was the case, I would be able to do it in the way I planned

Next, I asked Tirnanog

“Then, when do you think that Cursed Sword of Fire will fall?”

『It is such a huge ical construction spell, but the composition speed is fast

Based on the description of the literature, that’s right……it will be around forty minutes from now to its completion』

It would be difficult to evacuate the citizens with that time

Even if they escaped froht in the fall zone of another cursed sword

So that was the reason Tirnanog unusually hesitated to say it, huh

“……Inow!”

Harold hounded me with a frustrated appearance

Alright, I felt glad that he seery

Harold was going to have plenty of works froic condition

“Harold, you, no, we ht be able to save this town”

“……What……do you mean?”

“That Cursed Sword of Fire cannot be touched, dismantled or dispelled, but there is one way”

“W-what is itDon’t put on airs, just say it quickly!”

Harold as ied me

Auguste and Tirnanog were gazing atfor my words

“We cannot prevent the completion of the cursed swords, but we can prevent the finished cursed swords froic”

“That’s absurd! In order to deploy a city-wide area es

Such a great nuet them from!”

“What if I say that the three of us……h?”

Harold becaotten his words

Auguste and Tirnanog were staring atas if they were taken aback

“Harold, you will have to donow

The spell that you need to charge is LevitationThe nues is 990 times”

Harold’s facial expression changed slowly from astonishment to calm

It seemed that his technician brain was stimulated

I saw Harold’s change and my mouth formed a smile

“Can you do it?”

“……I canI will do itI have never made it, but I know the composition of that spell

But, by Levitation, what do you……ah!”

Harold’s eyes widened

It seeic and wands froe already understood

“I see, the duration of lava’s materialization time is five minutes, and the effect time of the normal Levitation is about the same

Levitation is also characterized by a rise in efficiency as its amplification increases

If we extend the range of the effect with Wand Alteration and wrap it around……!!”

“CorrectAs it will need to be used 60 times per cursed sword, ill need 990 for all 15 cursed swords”

『I see, that’s a unique way to extend the power of a ithout limit』

“Extension……it’s like the signature ood idea”

Tirnanog and Auguste also nodded

But actually this alone was not enough

And it was Harold as the first to notice it

“Wait……how are you going to ai to 15 places, and around the entire Knot Reed no less

It’s iular way, so ht……no, that’s useless

I don’t have tie quantities”

“That’s e need another person”

I nodded slowly, and gazed at Auguste

“I see, ai……that’s my role, huh”

“I’m saved since this conversation will be quickOf course you will participate in this plan”

“You don’t even consider that I will refuse, huhThat’s fineI will place my bet on you”

I sy

We were ready now

From here on, we only had to believe in Harold

“Then, I will ic

When the on with you”

Auguste said so and stared at the sky

I took out a wand froht for me

The Wand of Levitation already had 100 charges in it

I held the wand and presented it to Harold

“I think you can do it, no, you are the only one who can do it, hey, partnerIsn’t that right?”

“……What the heck, that kind of crude trust as if leaving it all to me”

Haah~~, Harold exhaled a long sigh, looking at me with serious eyes

“But, I will not let you down”

Harold’s eyes becahtly moist with tears

He wiped them so as to conceal it, then he accepted the wand

Harold squatted down on the stone floor of the tower and spread his work tools

“Let’s get started with my work!”

Harold rolled his sleeves up and wore his black leather gloves

He put on his goggles with a s touch

“If we charge 1000 shots on a wand that originally contains only 100 shots, the burden on the ill be more than ten folds

First of all, let’s release all the ical powers compression format from scratch”

Harold loosened the ferrule and airound

He confirmed that everyone except himself had took a distance froed inside the wand

A strong flash of light like a camera’s flash

The round

“Uh!”

A runaway ht cheek

From the wound where the pale spark hit, fresh blood dripped down

“Harold, are you okay?”

“Haha, that helped shorten the ti”

As Harold ured the ith precise movements like a machine

“Heeh, this is……”

『What’s wrong, Harold』

“Well, to think that I can see the wonderful work of Visitor’s Clan in a place like this”

『You…… unexpectedly, it see like that』

As Tirnanog said so in a his teeth

“It’s because I rarely tinker with such an a wand

Both durability and precision are different from ready-made items

But, as expected, ten times asa wand that hadn’t been taken into consideration whenthis wand

I will also take the other wands apartI have to use everything usable in our arsenal”

As he said earlier, Harold began to take apart the Wand of Leap and Feather Falling

He broke one third of Griffin’s bone of Feather Falling wand and cut it into a hook shape

Scraped off the wyvern bone from Levitation wand lued theaps

Next he took out vellum papers and cut them into thin bands

“I’-Armed Ernst’s wands are carved with old poetries of Visitor’s Clan, right?

I don’t remember the poetry of Visitor’s Clan, but the poems of my hometown are supposed to have the same effect”

Soaked a pen in a special ink mixed with several kinds of chemicals

Wrote the poetry on vellulue, and wrapped it around the shaft

Certainly, this was quicker than engraving it

Returned the amber on the wand head and yellow brass on the handle of the assembled wand

Using the sa corethe shaft

Finally, he sealed the ferrule with netite which was used for the wand head of Leap

“It has becouaranteedI will only have to believe and charge this guy, after that it’s a race against time”

Harold looked at the ith a serious expression and built the spells to charge it

One, two, three—

As he built the spells with unparalleled accuracy, I had forgotten to breath before I knew it

One hundred

The ical power grazed Harold’s right cheek

The torrent of ical power burned his cheek in a way that it crosses the first wound

“Are you okay, Harold!?”

However, rather than groaning in pain, Harold was i

What an a concentration

I applied a handkerchief to his cheek softly

“That town is the place where I grew up, I absolutely won’t let you hurt the people in my city”
