63 # 61 New weapons and apologies.txt (1/2)

After my part-time job ended, I immediately headed to the Adventurer's Guild. That's where Freetia's immigration inspection took place. But in my case, it ended with me showing all the summoned beasts. They said I had to figure it out in case. So I paid and got my permit. I made the arrangements today, so I hear we'll be leaving the day after tomorrow.

Before that, I still have to take care of some unfinished business...for now, I need to level up. Going to a new country means that we'll run into stronger monsters.

I received a message from my friend. It's Crow.

I've got the one-handed sword, staff and armor you asked for. Sorry, please come and get them.

Oh, nice timing to finish it. I gave Crowe a werewolf claw and a water-based stone that I had saved up. I gave Mew some piranha skin and werewolf skin, so I can't wait to see how it turns out. I headed over to Crow-san's place as soon as possible.

「「「「 I'm sorry to bother you: 」」」」

'Oh. You're here early... uh, sorry about yesterday... how do you feel about it?

I know it wasn't Mr. Crowe and the others, and I'm fine.

Well... but I didn't think you'd be so strong when you lost your temper.

'Can we stop talking about it, please? Because Lily and Ion are offended.

I say this and Lily and the others complain.

'It doesn't make me sick or anything,'

You're just annoying.

It's offensive, you know. Lilly.

'Well I'll just give you from my finished product anyway.

Let's see.

Werewolf's Great Sword: Rarity 3, Weight 30, Endurance 40, Attack Power +20

Additional effect: Water attribute (slight)

A great sword made from the claws of a werewolf. It also has a slight water attribute as an added benefit.

It's not very sharp, but it can be used for cutting.

Water Stone Dagger: Rarity 2, Weight 5, Endurance value 25, Attack power +7

Additional effect: Water attribute (slight)

A dagger made of water-based stone.

With the added effect of a slight water attribute.

”Oh. I see you added the water attribute.

Ah. It's a good thing that they released the water attribute to the blacksmithing skills. It was a great help.

That's good to hear.

'So here's your deposit.'

Let's see.

Piranha's Robe: Rarity 2, Weight 5, Endurance 25, Defense +10

Additional Effect: Fire resistance (slight)

A rope made of werewolf skin based on piranha skin.

A small amount of fire resistance is added as an added benefit.

Werewolf Shoes: rarity 2, weight 5, endurance 25, speed +5

Additional Effect: Fire resistance (slight)

A shoe made of piranha skin on a werewolf skin base.

A small amount of fire resistance is added as an added benefit.

Camphorwood Staff: rarity level 2, weight 5, endurance value 25, magic attack power +15

A staff made of camphor tree.

Has more magic attack power than normal wood.

Kusunoki wooden sword: rarity level 2, weight 5, endurance value 25.

A wooden sword made of camphorwood.

Its shape is a sword but it is light, so it can be used with the one-handed sword skill.

Oh! It's kind of nice. The shoes are a bonus, apparently. He thought he needed them because I was using a kicking technique on Wolfman. I'll send Mew a thank you email.

But when I looked at the weapon, I suddenly had a question.

''Come to think of it, how does attack power, defense power, speed, and magic attack power differ from muscle power and magic power or something like that?''

Oh, that question... we don't know, so we're currently verifying it, but apparently muscle power and aggression are different.

Ah, I knew it was different.

'It's just a hypothesis, but my current theory is that muscle strength, agility value, and various skill levels determine attack power.

Huh, that's certainly a setup that this game would do. The power of a weapon is determined by pure muscle power and the speed with which you wield the weapon.

So your magic attack power is magic power, dexterity value and skill?

'That's the theory now. I'm not sure if defense is as stated in the stats or if it's influenced by muscle strength or something else. I'm not sure if it's the same as it is now, but I think it's the current hypothesis. By the way, when I contacted the management, they said they couldn't give me an answer. In other words, we'll have to find the answer ourselves.

That makes sense.

”I understand. Now I'm going to pay you.

'Yes. 1000G for the large sword, 500G x 2 daggers, 500G x 2 staffs, 500G for shoes, 500G for robes, 300G for wooden swords, for a total of 4300G.

It's quite an expense, but it's okay. It would have been a disaster if we hadn't beaten so many players yesterday.

Well, we're done for now.

Uh, would you mind waiting for me?

What is it? Is this about yesterday by any chance?

It's not too far from the mark. Luin says there's someone he wants you guys to meet.

From what I've heard, that's who was there yesterday... all of them weren't banned from logging in, but I guess I can't wait, though.

''I understand.

After a few minutes of waiting, Ruin and the woman arrived. Looking at the woman, Lily and Ion held up their new weapons.

That person...is the one who warned Arthur once.

Lily, Aeon. Drop your weapon.

But, Tact!　That man!

I know. But if they were going to fight us, they would field us. We're not going to be in a fight right away, so put your weapons down.

I understand.

If you're so inclined, Tact...

Lily and the others drop their weapons and we come face to face with her. She's a member of the Round Table who was an archer.

'First of all, thank you for agreeing to dialogue. I'm Tristan, one of the members of the Round Table.

'This is Summoner Tact. I haven't heard anything about the details, but you have something to tell us.

'Yes. I just wanted to apologize for what happened yesterday...I'm so sorry!

Then she lowered her head. She's amazing that she's coming to apologize after yesterday's day....

''He said he'd be forgiven for apologizing!
