“Wh-why are you able to cut trees like that…? And so quickly…”

“I don’t know . Ask this guy . ”

I said as I pointed to the axe .

The axe that was made through ‘Axe Summon’ could be used very roughly, and yet the blade did not have a single chip in it .

If it were a normal axe, it would have probably broken if you used the kind of force that was required to chop down a tree with a single hit .

“No, I don’t think you can blame the axe for this one…”

“Look, I don’t understand how it works . But I can cut down trees . Is that not enough?”

“…True . If you can cut down trees, the method is not important . Besides, I’ve never seen someone cut down trees so quickly . It would take at least 5 minutes to cut down a tree of this width . ”

Apparently, he was willing to accept my way of doing things .

So, now I just had to turn this into firewood .

“Alright, I’m going to the next part now . Let me know if I’m doing anything wrong . ”

I said as I chopped off the branches and turned the tree into a log .

Mister Udoka watched this with a look of shock .

“Your methods are incomprehensible…and too quick . Is it really possible to make a log at this speed?”

“I don’t know . It just happens when I swing the axe randomly . …So… Now I just need to split the log into a random length and then cut them vertically?”

“…Yes . But try to keep them close to 40 cm . The prices will go down at the guild if they are too long or too short . ”

“Got it . ”

I said as I swung the axe down and cut the log into perfect pieces .

It felt easier doing this compared to cutting the tree down . Perhaps it was because of gravity .

Well, either way . It was just one swing .

“I-I really can’t believe this . How are you doing this…?”

Udoka was just repeating himself now .

“So now we have smaller logs of the same length . What now? How thick do I need to cut them?”

“Uh…yes . At this size, you should split them into 4 pieces . Thicker logs would be split into 8 . ”

“Got it . ”

I said as I thoughtlessly swung the axe .

Who would have expected a skill like ‘Ultra Combat Art’ to be used for this? I wasn’t even fighting .

I thought about this as I swung the axe . It did not take long for the entire tree to turn into firewood .

I had the slimes dry it and I was finished .

“…Alright . I’m done . Can I take this to the guild now?”

“Yeah . It’s perfect . I’m still confused as to how…but as long as you can make perfect firewood at an incredible speed, I won’t complain . I guarantee that no one at the guild will complain about this . ”

So it seemed that I would not have to change the way I did things .

The only thing that was important was that firewood was made .

“Alright . Thank you for teaching me . ”

“No, I should be thanking you . This shortage is quite serious . And I get paid for each person that I instruct . And today, my job has never been easier . ”

I see . So it was that kind of system .

In any case, I had his approval now . So it was time to get to work .

“Thank you . I’m going to go and make more firewood now . ”

I said as I headed to the forest to cut down some trees .

…Before leaving, I used ‘Slime Storage . ’ This resulted in me having to explain it all over again…but that’s a story for another day .

A few hours later .

I finished cutting down the trees and splitting the logs . And so I returned to the town .

‘You cut so much!’

‘Yeah . I don’t know how much they needed . So I thought I would start with this much . ’

I talked to the slimes as I entered the guild .

And then I checked the quests for firewood .

…While they all had prices, none of them had anything about maximum quant.i.ty .

It was the guild that was asking for it .

And the guild probably had plenty of money . They would probably buy everything they could .

And so I took the request sheet and went to the counter .

“I brought some firewood . How much will you buy for this request?”

“There is no fixed amount… Where is the firewood?”

“Here . ”

I said, accepting the wood from the slime .

I had been hiding Slime Storage from the guild up until now, but decided it would be easier if I just told them .

…However, it would still be annoying having to explain it .

I thought this…however, the lady behind the desk had a reaction I was not expecting .

“From the slime… That magic . I didn’t know there were people that could use it…”
