Chapter 47 - Preparation
In a shop that adventurers utilized
I as talking with the owner there asked his we needed
With the existence of the underground dungeon here, there were several shops here that were dealing with all the necessary supply to enter it
「Teeks for seven people share? How should I say it, this is unusual」
Nove me tilted her head at the owner's words
「Unusual?」
「Yeah, you are entering the dungeon right? I won't think anything of it if you're going outside, but if you're entering the dungeon with seven people, then even the longest usually will be only three or four days It's unusual to stay for teeks in the dungeon with that nu reckless aren't you? I understand your feeling to want to rush because you are young but……」
I turned toward the worried shop owner and shook et this chance to enter the dungeon, so we are thinking to get used to it using this chance, that's all」
The owner scratched his head with a worried look
「That's fine if that's it but……you guys are paying customer, so I'll prepare the iteuys」
I and Novem said our thanks and left the shop
This shop was near the outer wall and the dust was terrible fro
I covered my mouth and walked toward the next shop
「Arisan and Sophisan are having tea with Mirandsan?」
Novem nodded in reply to my question
「Yes I turned down the invitation because I'etting along well It's because in the first place Mirandsan was close with Arisan, and Arisan right now is also close with Sophisan」
I tried spoke reservedly to Noveether with them」
Then Noveo shopping by yourself? Just now you were also going to buy everything in one shop because the price is cheap」
「……I'ize tothat it's better to do this with two people rather than just alone」
Novem's smile was really painful to look at
There was a shop that put a writing at its storefront that they could provide everything in cheap price, so we tried looking inside The shop oas welco as really a to purchase exactly what he offered, Novem stooped me When we checked the h the food wasn't rotten but they were in terrible condition The amount was also few and even if we ordered the share of seven people, it would only be enough for six or perhaps five people
I al o have fun I think you better think hard about this You're really unreliable Lyle~』
It was vexing but I couldn't say anything back
A lot of the shops that catered toward adventurer were located near the outer wall and guild, because of that we immediately arrived at the next destination
We entered a narrow alley and found an entrance ahead of us It was a shop that handled ar to enter, a person who looked like academy student came out from it The person was fe e passed each other
「Why was it a failure……haa, I' by thisfailure, but we continued toward the shop
The place was even more cramped than the shop at Dalien Armors were lined up until the lirew reeted us He see like a child with his short and slender body
「Welco up arrows that were lined up on the counter e ca of the arroas really careful I was curious and asked him
「What are those arrows?」
The owner's hand stopped And then he htly troubled smile and answered
「Aa, this is burst arrow It's the so called ic arrow you see Here, look at this arrowhead」
When I looked closer, thelike clay
Nove She put her hands on her ht, is it ic stone kneaded into it?」
The owner looked at Novem in surprise And then he becaet it! Yes, this thing haskneaded into a special clay But you see……originally this thing is created with the purpose to increase the power by generating fire or causing wind, but the products that are brought here are only failed creations Though it's given exaggerated name like burst arrow」
The owner took off one arrowhead and threw it toward thick metal scraps at some distance away When the arrowhead hit the trash box that was sooty inside, there was an explosion sound pon and smoke came out The Seventh was interested The Second was also the sa-! It's probleathered and explosive──』
『Stupid idiot! It's great because it's bow and arrow! With this thing, then bow and arroill be even more useful!』
The Seventh was interested in the explosion, but the Second was interested in the existence of ic arrow because his oeapon was bow and arrow The owner looked slightly dejected
「As you can see, it explode and that's it It's quite strong but, it's a dud」
Noveic arrow seriously My interest was also attracted at theSurely it will be useful if this arrow is gathered in large amount」
The owner explained the flaw of burst arrow
「I won't recommend that It's a dud no matter how you look at it The power is also not stable Besides, transporting them is really troublesome Nor will explode if the arrowhead collide with each other, and it will also explode fro impact It will explode too if it become too hot Anyway, it explodes too easily It's useful but it's dangerous to bring thee amount」
The Seventh and the Second were disappointed
『What, so it cannot be manufactured huh However, if the way toto use this scary arrow that will explode in your hand huh It will be fine if the user is skilled but……it's too difficult if you also have to be careful not to explode it while the enemy comes near It also look like it cannot be fired rapidly』
It see stepped on
Certainly, I would want to refuse if I was told to walk around while carrying a lot of such arrow
The owner showed us the tool to store this special arrow It was a type of itele arrow carefully The arroas put into a long and narrow box one by one and then got fixed in place Inside there was several layer of fur placed around the arrow to become cushi+on
「Honestly, you still cannot feel relieved even after putting the arrow inside this What's more, it's really troublesome to take it out one by one」
The burst arroas really troubleso while I was thinking like that
『Lyle Perhaps this thing can be used well if usinginterested
『Aa, now that you ood chance so I'll also teachthe Art itself is simple but, the problem will be in how to use it I'll teach you in this chance』
It seemed the tould finally teach me their Art
──The place was a stylish café
Both Aria and Sophia were slightly nervous at the high class atmosphere
Many of the custoant attire There were also men, but everyone was accompanied by woher by one or two step compared to the café they usually visited
Sophia visited such café because she was invited by Aria More accurately, Aria as invited by Miranda invited Sophia and Nove Lyle
Aria looked around restlessly
「Hey, is it okay for adventurer to come here? Like, I heard that Arumsaas is cold toward adventurer」
Sophia also recalled a certain incident At their first day in Aru for a place to stay, they were chased out because the place refused adventurer It couldn't be helped that she orried after such thing happened
「That's right It will be inexcusable if we cause trouble for Mirandsan」
Then Miranda laughed
「You two are worrying too much Besides, my backer is the acadee a complaint if we are chased out because of such reason In the first place, the two of you are also former noble aren't you?」
Sophia shook her head
「My house was abolished after causing a probleht」
Miranda smiled
「Don't depreciate yourself It doesn't ht, a noble is a noble」
Miranda said that and drank her tea
Sophia felt like she was slightly saved by those words She also drank her tea As expected from a pricey tea, it was delicious
Miranda broached a topic
「Hey, coether after this but, I don't really know about everyone That's why, can you tell me what you can do?」
Aria said 「That's true」 and started talking about herself
「I'ic……I'」
Sophia too continued the explaination
「Ia battle axe that is a heirloo s to the two's story with deep interest
「Hee……then, what about Novem-san?」
Aria talked about Noveician She can use any ic skillfully Miranda is also skilled but, perhaps Nove hard in herthat
「My, that's great She seems reliable Unlike her I am a jack of all trades after all」
Sophia followed up for her in hurry
「The, there is no such thing It's already praiseworthy that you are able to use ic」
「Thank you But, the two of you can also use Art correct? I don't ard to the two of you in that ……And, what about Lyle-kun?」
Aria and Sophia looked at each other They ondering how much they could talk about it Then Miranda solved theof the two
「Ah, it's fine I have heard about his Arts when he explained to Professor Damian What I' is going to be a hindrance to Lyle-kun You know, it will be bad if I' Art isn't it?」
Aria was relieved hearing that
「Then it's fine That guy can do anything after all You're worried that youby hirasp the surrounding terrain by himself, he would also search and detect the enemy, and on top of that his co the four of theic specialist but, Lyle was able to do both close quarter coic skillfully
Sophia spoke about that
「He is a really a person Certainly sometimes he also has this stupid side but, he is calerous situation Co her head down Even though they wanted to be useful, they were unable to do so They felt vexed toward themselves ere like that Miranda spoke to the two of them
「Then both of you──can work harder at what you can do It's that you know, leaving other thing to others while doing the best you can at the area that you are able to do I think it's better that way The two of you have a face of Miranda, Aria and Sophia thought that certainly, if they worked hard at what they could do then──
The night of that day
I was told to coh a memory door The memory door was located behind the chair of each ancestor By entering inside, I was able to learn what each ancestor had seen or felt
And then right now I entered into the memory door of the Seventh
The reason was to learn the Art of the Third and the Seventh Each Art had a fore The Art becainally a Gem would teach the name of the Art and how to use it to the user
However, a simple Gem would stop there If the user didn't know the nae onward, and they also didn't know the way to use the Art, the Gem wouldn't let the user use any further Art than that
