99 Episode 99: The Different Sharp Flavor (2/2)

”For that reason, this time we have a dismantling knife made of black dragon material so that we can cut green dragon scales and leather clean.”

That's what I say. Cut the green dragon scales in two.

”Wouldn't it be strange if a knife made of black dragon material, which is superior to green dragon, could cut the skin of green dragon clean?”

”Well, is that what happened? Sure, that would convince me.”

……

”” ”” ”” Knife huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

”Yes, the cut is good there, isn't it?

”No, I mean good or too good...... are you serious about using Black Dragon material?!?”

”Yeah, I'm using it.”

”No, we took this course to dismantle the Black Dragon in the first place... we used it as a material...”

Oh, so you were surprised.

”It's okay. Because I have a proper black dragon left for demolition. The new black dragon that I've been hunting for this knife.”

”I see, then don't worry...... hey!? Oi!? Seriously!?”

”Yeah, I went hunting a little last night”

”Hey, are you serious...”

Seriously.

”That, for sure, was a shitty demon that could easily destroy the town, right?

”Oh, I bet...”

”Is that a mon who can hunt that in a little bit?

”Besides, you made this massive knife after that, didn't you? How long does it take you to make all this? Wouldn't it take a lot of time just to defeat the Black Dragon?

”I mean, it's Dragon Peak that the Black Dragon lives in, right? Even if you ran a horse after yesterday's course, you won't make it this morning. What's going on!?”

When I told him I had been hunting for the Black Dragon, the demolishers began to flaunt me for some reason.

Hmm, I just hunted the Black Dragon.

”Well, that's for sure!

and there gyro you speak out loud.

”What does that mean, Bowes!?”

”Ha, do something because my brother is an S-rank adventurer!

”S-Rank!? That S-Rank of the Highest Rank Adventurer!?”

When they hear that I am S-ranked, the demolishers raise their voices of surprise.

”Exactly! And because he's an S-rank brother, he can quickly defeat the Black Dragon and come back to town to prepare a number of knives!

”Nah, Cheng Cheng. Speaking of S-rank adventurers, they are amazing at crossing each other with S-rank demons. I've heard that some of them have powerful ancient magic items on their trumpets.”

”Well, maybe S-rank adventurers can do it!

No, it's nothing. If it's about a black dragon, you don't have to be an S-rank adventurer to defeat it, do you?

”Oh, most S-rank adventurers are reputationally damaged...”

”I don't know if it's reputational damage.”

Liliera is staring at the demolishers with sad eyes for some reason beside her.

Nestled next to it, Mina is somewhat of an ambitious air.

”And well, that's why, gentlemen, use a new knife to dismantle a lot of green dragons. If you're used to dismantling green dragons, you'll be able to dismantle basic dragons without problems.”

”” ”” ”Oops!!” ””

The demolishers return to dismantling the Green Dragon with exasperation.

I'm excited to get a sharper tool than the demolition knife we've all been using.

Getting new gear makes you feel better, doesn't it?

”Hey... can I have a minute?

And those are the adventurers who paid 200 gold coins to attend the demolition course that I've been talking to at that time.

”Yes, even where you don't know what it is?

”No, you're not... I need a favor”

”Would you do me a favor?

”Oh.”

The adventurers stare at me with a serious face.

”This knife you made, will you sell it to us?

”Huh?”

”We have a weapon made out of dragon scales, but this knife is unparalleled.”

With that said, the adventurer shows me the short sword he could carry on his hips.

”This... is the sword that scraped out the scales of the green dragon”

”Oh, it's a sword that a well-known blacksmith took months to make. But it's not far from the knife you made.”

That would be the case, too.

The tip of this short sword is worn out.

Not to mention how much of a sword you just scraped out, let's just focus on finishing it a little bit more.

Then it's natural that the knife I made in one piece tastes better.

Is it really the work of a well-known blacksmith?

If you spend enough money like this, you could make a better weapon of dragon material if you ask Mr. Goldoff.

”No, I know. This knife is also made of black dragon material. Yeah, it's not that easy to give up. But as an adventurer, I'm pretty sure this knife can definitely be used as a trump card. So...”

”Oh, that's good, I'll give it to you”

”I guess, but still...” Huh?

”So I'll give it to you. Not only to all the adventurers, but also to all the demolishers.”

…………

At that moment, the sound disappears from the dismantling field.

”” ”” Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!? ””

”Hey, are you serious!? It's made of dragon material!?”

”Besides, I rarely go outside of Dragon Peak. It's made of black dragon material. I don't know how much money I need to spend to get this. It's a silo thing!?”

Everyone asks me with their eyes black and white wondering if that's really okay.

But if I could dismantle the green dragon, I'd be able to do just that.

Honestly, I can't sell it until I pay for it.

”The Adventurers have paid 200 gold coins, and the Adventurers Guild will pay for the course for the demolishers. Then this knife is like made with expenses to be used for the course. So I'm going to give it to you.”

”Stay...”

The adventurers look stunned, lagging behind.

”” ”” ”Are you serious?!?” ””

”No, I get it. I know very well. That's what happened to me.”

And, Liliera speaks in a smudged tone.

”You're going to give me something even more unusual like nothing.”

No, it's really nothing, is it?
