252 # 239 The disappeared ghost beast and the birth of a magic sword.txt (1/2)

The next day, according to Kaito, the Empire's city walls were attacked by a large number of undead monsters and collapsed.

The Empire evacuated its citizens to the basement of the castle, but it seems that the entire town has been taken over by corrupt zombies.

However, after the castle walls were breached, a magical formation appeared in the Draugle Beast and apparently disappeared. I heard it was the same in Vineleaf.

With the Draugr Beast gone, they're currently in the midst of an ongoing campaign to clean up the corrupt zombies.

However, the players are almost useless, as their equipment is damaged by the corruption.

''Sigh... now I'm being out-levelled by Hime's chairman...''

'Come to think of it, the princess committee chairman and the others were in attendance... how did it go?

We were in the hunt for the Skull Elephant, remember?

'Yes!　With a lot of players, though.

Even so, it looks like you've gained confidence because you were able to defeat the Skull Elephant. This guy on the other hand...

'Let me go to Freetia too... and then I'd be up a level and in uu-ha-ha paradise...'

On the board, I've heard that the battles I've been fighting in the free tier so far are called effortless level-up events.

After all, you can level up just by participating in it. It's no wonder they call it that. However, according to the people who are verifying it, there is definitely a difference in the distribution of experience values.

It's only natural that there's a difference between people who only participate in events and do nothing, and those who take the initiative to participate in events.

Well, from Kaito's point of view, it seems that he's not happy with the fact that he's getting experience from people who haven't done anything.

While listening to Kaito's complaints, I finish shopping at the supermarket after school. Today and tomorrow are the peak of the event. I have to eat well and get into the spirit.

After I finish shopping, I log into the game.

Then I go downstairs to find Setia and Hephaistos waiting for me.

''It's done!''

Finally, the magic sword was complete.

I headed to the Hephaistos Forge, where I found a single crimson bladed one-handed sword.

The design of the blade's peak is in the shape of a dragon's wing, and in the center is a scarlet orb made by Setia. The hilt was black and the blade was engraved with elven letters.

So this is the magic sword made by Setia and Hephaistos...I quickly appraised it and found that it has no name. Huh?

You don't seem to have a name.

Since the sword is Takut-san's sword, we decided with Ms. Setia that Takut-san was the best person to name it.

Crap...I'm furiously impressed right now!

But the name of the sword... it's a western sword design, so the Japanese language is weird. I think this is a good name for it.

How about Scarlet Ring...

As I said this, fire sparks started to flood out of the magic sword and brightly illuminated the surroundings.

''This magic sword seems to be the name Tact-sama likes,''

'Right. Mr. Takt, please hold it in your hand.

Yeah.

When I held it in my hand, it was unexpectedly light and easy to swing the sword. After appraising it, I found out what it is.

Scarlet Ring: rarity 8 magic sword, quality B

Weight: 35 Endurance Value: 100 Attack Power: 40

Magic Sword Effect: Fire Up (Super), Destroying Chant

Treasure Ball Effect: Heat, Reduce Magic Retime (Large), Release Treasure

Marking effect: Weight reduction

A magic sword of fire that incorporates a ruby jewel. It has a far better performance than other fire magic swords.

The sword has the Clan's emblem of Leapling emblazoned on the sword's peak.

I was expecting something amazing, but this is messed up.

It's on a different level than the weapons we've had. I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do with it.

It depends. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. But if it's magic of other attributes, the wand should have more firepower.

It's a fire-attribute specialization... that's what I'd say. However, it's still powerful.

At any rate, whatever.

Good luck from now on!　Partner.

The Scarlet Ring answers my words with a fireball.

I thought about going to test my partner's performance then, but Setia stops me.

'I've also completed the wand and other items. Check it out.

Wow...it's really all complete.
