Chapter 539 Craftsman of Magic Items

Magic items are tools with abilities similar to magic. The Magic Kingdom Adelheit benefits from them to a greater extent than any other country, and you can often see them in everyday scenes, such as the streetlights that light up the streets, and the stoves and baths that are used in daily life. Bags and pouches with a storage function are related deeply to adventurers, and anyone in that line of job would want them.

As long as the magic item itself is not broken, it can be used for a long time as long as it is well maintained and replenished with magic power. Still, the greatest advantage of magic items is that they can be used by anyone, as long as they know how to use them. Make the impossible possible, this advertising campaign, launched by a certain Damaya company at that time, caused an explosion of sales all over the world.

Dont stare too much. Also, cover your ears.

?

Nell took out a fist-sized cylindrical object from her pocket and threw it at a distant wall. The object was thrown with great force and exploded the moment it collided with the wall. Then, it filled the space with tremendous light and sound for several seconds.

U-Ugh! Whats with this noise!?

Its making me dizzy

Also, its blindingly bright! W-Was that a stun grenade?

Oh, so you knew about it. The one you just saw is a kind of bomb made by Deris. It doesnt have much lethal power, but it can incapacitate those around it alive with its intense sound and light or something like that, I think? He said that he reproduced it as a magic item based on his memories from his previous world.

After a while, the girls recovered from their dizziness and ringing in their ears.

Deriss main job after retiring from adventure was to analyze, adjust, and repair magic items that were damaged or excavated at the request of the country, but he also can create magic items from scratch like that bomb. This is just my guess, but Im sure Deris will bring in a large amount of magic items that will be the weaknesses of the three of you on the day of the battle. If he cant set traps on the battlefield and cant interfere with his opponents until the day of the battle, hell have to make other preparations to compensate for that so that he can play as many cards as he can. Thats how Deris do things.

Bringing in magic items. Certainly, it isnt against the rules presented by Agalia-san.

I think its so like Shish to prepare so carefully!

Hey, if thats the case, maybe Danna will bring even modern weapons, wont he? If he can make bombs, he can make guns as well, cant he?

A gun, huh~. Ive never been hit by a bullet. When I traveled abroad with my family, I was unlucky and never get a chance to be attacked by someone with a gun. Well, we always went deep in the jungle, in rugged mountains, or in other natural places that need survival skills.

No, that wasnt unlucky. Also, why did you go to that kind of place?

Dads hobby! And work!

W-Work?

Y-You see, Harunas father was an explorer. He was probably teaching about survival while having a family trip.

Chinatsu, you say that with a serious face, but are you aware that what you are saying is out of the ordinary?

Im aware of it and I think its strange, but its the fact, so it cant be helped. When I was in elementary school, Haruna gave me a mask of some tribe as a souvenir.

M-Mask.

The Katsuragi family was full of mysteries. Anyway, back to the magic items.

I dont know what a gun is, but if its something that Deris knows, its better to think that its possible. And if Marias blood is used on a magic item, I honestly cant imagine what kind of magic item will be created.

Um, instead of using Marias blood as a catalyst for magic, should we also use it for magic items like Deris-san?

Oh, thats

No, that would be difficult~

Alezel suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Alezel-san, you always suddenly appear, huh?

Hmm, you aint surprised, huh? The surprise appearance is ruined~. When I was in Damaya, everyone showed a better reaction~

We were desperately fighting against Nell-neesan after all. I can finally follow her with my eyes, you know?

More importantly, what do you mean when you said it would be difficult, Alezel-san?

Ah, thats right. You can use Maria-hans blood to make magic items, but in that case, the level of Magic Item Creation required for it is too high. None of our employees can handle it, and even if you searched all over the world, Deris is probably the only one who can do it.

Eh!? Shish was that amazing as a craftsman!?

Thats right~. Unlike combat jobs, its hard to level up as a craftsman. Even the highest level is level 5 at best! Deris may look like that now, but he worked very hard after he retired as an adventurer, yknow? I even tried to recruit him many times. Well, it all ended in failure, though.

Wait, Ive never heard about that recruit thing.

Eh, is that so? Well, aint it fine? It was a long time ago~

Its not. I joined the Magic Knight Order at that time, you know? If Deris moved to a different country, I might not have been able to visit him easily!

Lets put aside the what-if story~

Come to think of it, Gan-san is also level 5, right?, while thinking about such things, Haruna watches the verbal battle between Alezel and Nell. At any rate, it seems that they cant use Marias blood to create a magic item.

It doesnt seem like their quarrel will end soon. Until then, lets think of a way to use this blood.

Okay!

Youre going to use it for magic, right? Then, I dont need it. You cant use it for magic items, but if you use it to raise your magic power, it might reach Dannas level. Besides, I will fill what youre lacking with my ki, just like how Danna fills what hes lacking with his magic items. Its not that Im telling you to relax your guard, but you should trust in the training youve done so far.

Ooh.

Hee.

W-Whats with you two? Why are you making that strange face?

Toukos face frowned as if she wasnt comfortable with the two who let out their voices.

No, I just thought that Touko has grown up too. Yes, its exactly what Touko says. We should believe in our own strengths, cover for each others shortcomings, and do what we can.

Yes, I will do my best too! Its a rare chance that Shish will come to crush us for real! I will punch, kick, break, slash, crush, throw, ummoh, magic too! Anyway, I will hit him with everything Ive accumulated so far! Im going to knock him down! Alright, Im going to pull off the biggest giant-killing of the century!

Good grief, she was supposed to be in the most unlucky position at first, but she hasnt changed at all, huh.

Of course. Shes my best friend Im proud of.

Yeah. Haruna is Haruna. Shes my eternal rival.

Hmm?

Thus, both camps spared no effort to make every possible preparation for the trial. A week passed. Finally, the final battle between the black iron master and disciples begins.

The 89th day of training is over.
