314 # 297 Setias magic wand and how to evolve Ix.txt (1/2)

Kaito, who felt something had happened to me in my sleep-deprived state, pursued me and pulled me aside when I told him what happened yesterday. I want to tell him not to ask me then.

''But there's a quest for a trap like that?''

'I'm surprised too, but when I think about it, the zombie queue was a trap too.

I see. Anyway, I guess you'll have to be careful with anything related to the constellations.

I shudder to think of so many quakes like that.

And the reward?

When I told him, he asked me to give it to him as a matter of course. There's no way I'd give it to him. By the way, it seems that Kaito and the others succeeded in defeating Gigarth and reached the new area.

Apparently, the Kayo sisters had made a great success in their senior positions. I couldn't stop bragging about it since the morning, and when I told them what I did yesterday--

I can't lose!

I got an email saying. I don't know what they are judging the winners and losers based on. By the way, I heard the new area was similar to the Grand Canyon. I'd like to visit this area once, but it seems we can't take it easy.

At any rate, the area was crawling with gargoyles, which are probably the evolutionary ancestors of lesser gargoyles, and wyverns, which are also presumed to be the evolutionary ancestors of wyverns, and they seemed to have retreated.

It's strange, because I ran into an ice dragon yesterday, so it still seems like a win for me.

School is over and I log into the game.

Then I bring the Happiness Sheep outfit that Waxx said last day. And it looks like Setia has finally finished her wand too.

'It took you a long time,'

I'm sorry. I had to go through a lot of trial and error to make something that I was happy with. But I'm very proud of this one!

Really? Sounds like you're really proud of yourself. I appraise it and it doesn't have a name... I look at Setia and Setia gives me a big smile.

”You'll name it, won't you?

Geez... I'll just have to follow you... and Setia is an elf, and with Leapling...

What about cranleap?

Clan is the Irish word for tree. I chose Irish because Setia is an elf. The word ”Elf” is said to have originated in Germanic mythology - in other words, Norway and Ireland.

Furthermore, the famous Irish hero, Coughlin, is said to be the name of a fierce dog of the clan. This is something of a bonus, but I still think that weapons with the name of a hero in them are cool in their own right.

I've been sneaking around the internet to research about elves since Setia became my companion. It helped that I had memorized some words that might help me in naming them.

'By clan you mean leaping, right?

Aha. I'm sure you're right.

”You mean a group. Mine means ”tree. It's also the word that goes with my favorite hero's name, don't you think?

'If that's what you mean, that makes sense. But when I make my best wand, please think about it properly, okay?

All right. I'll think about it.

It's hard to come up with a name for it. I'll have to do a lot of research and think about it.

Once again, here's what I've named and appraised.

Happiness Sheep's Clothing: Rarity 7, Weight 10, Endurance Value 80, Defense +40.

Additional effects: Cold Resistance (extreme), Anti-status (great), Ice Magic Reduction (great), Heavenly Blessing

Clothing made of cotton and happy sheep's wool. It is resistant to anomalies, and the heavenly blessing gives the wearer the sacred attributes.

It is also comfortable to wear and makes the wearer happy.

Its performance is the same as Happiness Sheep's robes. But it must have been hard for all of Lily and the others... While patting the small Japanese fox, I look at Clan Leap.

Clan Leap: Rare Level 7 Magic Staff Quality C+

Weight: 40 Endurance Value: 100 Attack Power: 40

Magic Wand Effect: Wood attribute up (super), chant destroyed

Treasure Ball Effect: Continuous chanting, Reduce magic recovery time (large), Release Treasure Ball

Marking effect: Increased magic (large)

A wooden magic wand that incorporates an emerald jewel. It far surpasses other magic wands made of wood.

It's also a great way to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

''Ahhh...Setia?''

I'm very proud of it.

No, Setia...you're too obsessed with it. Looking at your status, I can see how much trial and error you've put into it.

You put a lot of thought into this.

We have to catch up with Master Tact as soon as possible.

You've been getting a lot of attention lately. Well, I don't mind it, I'll go my own way.

Next is the treasure box I didn't open yesterday because I wanted to sleep. There are five in all. I'll call Kiki to open it.

I wonder what I'll find. Here's what I found!

Red Thread of Escape: Normal Items

It can be used to escape from labyrinths and caves.

Dagger of the Slayer of Cattle: Rarity 7 Dagger Quality C+

Weight 25. Endurance 100. Attack power 30.

Effect: Suicide attack on a half-cow, half-human monster (large)

A dagger that is said to have defeated the Minotaur.

Citrine: rarity level 6 Material Item Quality C

A yellow gemstone. Works well with light-attribute weapons.

Amethyst: Rare Level 6 Material Item Quality C

A purple gemstone. It goes well with wind-attribute weapons.

There were two red threads of escape. The Cow Man Slayer's Dagger was probably the weapon that should have been used against the Minotaur. It was impossible when there was no one with the unlocking skill.

Citrine was the gemstone that Carbuncle had been eating. The amethyst was a first for me. We got both of them in the rough, not processed. The citrine is from the minotaur who dreamed of the stars, and the amethyst is from the minotaur who used the lightning and wind attributes, I guess.

Anyway, I took these and went to Hephaistos' place. We've got a lot of stuff, so let's talk about it.

''...There's already too much awesome material for me to react to...''

This was the first thing I heard from Hephaistos. 'Sorry about the great material.

'First of all, I can't touch the future vision crystal.

I knew it...

This is what I was originally going to sell to Mr. Nostra. Well, let's move on. You'll need to see the gold crusher.

Have you fought a monster that uses a weapon like this?

''We fought, didn't we? I'm going to have Moonlight Night use it.

I think that's a good idea. You could take it apart, but I don't know this material. It's frustrating, but I can't make a better weapon than this one.

It's weird that the Hephaistos know about Japanese weapons. I don't blame him for this. Then it's the Moonlight Night weapon, as planned.

The bull ball is still an accessory, but a bracelet or necklace would be a good idea. Let's talk to Ruin-san about this.

Hephaistos is troubled by the Decapitated Great Sword.

''It's an awesome weapon... what should we do?

'It's only useful for Lily, but Lily's weapons are more useful now. It's quirky. Hephaistos.

”...actually, I think I kinda won.

You're right. But I don't know. It's a natural state of mind for a blacksmith. Now, the question is, what are we going to do with this thing?

Disassembling it doesn't change anything...

Well, we'll just have to keep it with Lily's.

There are going to be a lot of big and strong enemies in the future. Let them use it against those enemies. Now, this is where the real work begins.

First, the star crystal stone.

It's a great material, but it can only be used to make small weapons. But.

Hephaistos touches the minotaur's axe and the cow-killing dagger.

''There is no doubt about it. These axes and daggers are also made of stellar stones. If we take them apart, we can secure quite a few of them.'

All right. How close are you to getting it?

The axe is pretty big, so I think we can secure it pretty well.

Well, I'll just take the big sword and shield.

Lily is delighted to hear this, and Aeon swoons. Hephaistos, who was watching her, confirms it.

'Um... are you sure?'

'Oh... in that order, it's Lily. The stronger the shield, the more stable the fight will be.

The stability of the shield is something I don't like to see in Full Moon and the others. Bran's shield is broken now, so it's a good opportunity.

''Now that I've got Citrine, I'm going to ask you and Setia to create Lily's great sword.

I understand.

Now, I'm going to follow up with a depressed Aeon.

'I think I'll use my previous sapphire and this amethyst for Ion.

Eh!

If you heard of two gemstone weapons, you'd get excited.

''...Isn't that unfair?''

Setia says so, but Lily's weapons will be made of starry stone. It will probably be the strongest weapon currently available.

In contrast, Aeon's materials have not yet been found, but I still don't think they will be able to exceed the star crystal stone.

''So each one of them can't reach Lily's weapons, right?

'Unfortunately. But Aeon used water, ice, and even lightning when he was turned into a dragon. It should be a good match.

Yes!
