Ah, she doesn't seem to be very motivated…The aura she gave off was like an office worker who wasn't put in an important position in the company. She placed her hand on the side of the shelf and looked at the sky in the distance.
He actually used the word " conveniently "…However, I could understand what Else meant. After all, it was not easy for them to become good friends. It would be a little lonely to say goodbye like this.
[You can do that too…]
"Alright! It's decided!"
[You're really rude...]
Seeing how Else had made such a quick decision, not giving Musashi any room to decline, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. He actually took advantage of Musashi's weak will…No, this should be Else's concern for Musashi. As I thought this, the carriage pulled up to the checkpoint. After Lyndsey nervously handed the medal given to us by the Duke's family to the soldier in charge of the review, the soldier easily let us pass. Wow, the duke's family was really impressive.
[Speaking of which, the world is really wide... There are actually people with such strong martial arts skills.] I'm still far from it…"
Musashi sighed. She was still concerned about that matter…It seemed that she had been suppressing her feelings.
" Especially the last strike. What exactly happened…I really thought that I had blocked the sword that chopped down on my head…but the sword came from the side again…"
[That's really amazing. He was clearly standing at the side, but he did not see what had happened at all. Unknowingly, you fell to the ground!」
"It's really a pity. If I could see that saber technique again…"
[You can watch it again!]
[... What?]
[What, what is this? Ah! I, I, I will stay inside!？The viscount was the same! Miss Elsa is here too!"
[Calm down.]
[It hurts!!]
I used my hand knife to hit their confused heads. Aren't they too panic-stricken? Although this reaction was quite funny.
"It can record what happened at a certain time, and I can watch it again. It's like…some kind of non-elemental magic unique to me. I used it to record the match just now.」
[What a superb magic!]」
[Oh, this, intelligent PIDIA?」
"Intelligent PIDIDIA... I've never heard of this spell. However, this was a non-elemental spell, so it was normal that he had never heard of it.」Elsa crossed his arms and tilted his head. During this time, Musashi had been holding the intelligent PIDIDI tightly and staring at the screen. The screen finally showed the scene of Musashi being knocked down.
[This is the place!]
The sword that was supposed to be swung down from Musashi's face was actually swung at Musashi's body from the start. Eh? The opponent was clearly aiming his sword at Musashi's head.
[Who knows…?]
[Mr.…Mr. Nan Ye!] Can I see it again?"
"You can watch it as many times as you want. Start from the beginning? Or did it start before you were knocked down?"
[Shadow Sword?]
Musashi said in a low voice.
" That's the technique of transforming high morale into a sword. Because it was an illusion, it did not have a physical body. However, that was a sword created from qi, so one could feel the qi field. That was why people couldn't help but notice its existence. The viscount should have raised the Shadow Sword above him and moved the Solid Sword to the side. When I felt the fighting spirit and responded, the sword in front of me was the shadow sword. The Solid Sword attacked me from the side without fighting spirit, and I was fooled just like that…"
He made us see an illusion…That's probably what happened. I had thought that Musashi would be even more dejected after learning of this fact, but a faint smile appeared on her face. That was a smile that represented giving up…No way, she seemed to have grasped something, but the way she muttered to herself scared me.
[My sword has no shadow…I see.] So that was the case. There was indeed a reason behind it. I shouldn't have waited for the opponent to reveal a flaw, but to find a way to make the opponent expose his own shortcomings…This is indeed…"
[Hello, Musashi? Are you alright?"
[I'm fine. Mr. Nan Ye, I'm extremely grateful. You've done me a great favor.」
I took the PIDIDI from Musashi, who had a happy expression on his face, and put it into my inner pocket. It would be great if this could become an opportunity for her to cheer up.
[I want to cultivate more with everyone and become stronger.」
[That's it!]
Musashi and Elsa high-fived each other and laughed. It was so good, so youthful.
[Please let me join you…]
A voice full of resentment came from the coachman's seat. Ah, we haven't forgotten you, have we? I'm sorry, Lyndsey. It's rare for us to come to the capital, we can't just go home like this. We were quite rich, so we decided to buy a lot here. Actually, I had no choice but to do this because I really couldn't disobey those three girls. We temporarily left the carriage at the hostel (since we didn't need to stay, we had to pay a parking fee). Everyone decided to gather here in three hours. It seemed that the three girls were going to act together, so I acted alone. I don't want to help them carry their luggage. Besides, I have something I want to buy myself. I took out the intelligent PIDIDIA and used the map to confirm my location. This…this place is really big…as expected of the capital. Can I use the search function? After searching, a few pins appeared on the map, showing the location of the defensive equipment store. Uh, the one closest to me is…right in front of me? I raised my head and saw a defensive equipment shop with a shield signboard. I don't even need to search…
[Welcome!]
I walked into the shop. There were all kinds of shields, armors, gauntlets, helmets, and so on. The friendly-looking boss stood behind the counter with a smile.
[Excuse me, can I take a look around?]」
After getting the boss's permission, I carefully looked at the armor. When I first accepted the guild's request, I bought a sword as a weapon. At that time, I decided to buy defensive equipment in the future. Therefore, I plan to seize this good opportunity. Since it's rare for me to come to the capital, I want to try my best to buy a high-quality defensive equipment. However, what should I do…I placed great importance on mobility. I felt that metal armor was not suitable for me, and full body armor made it very inconvenient for me to move around. In that case, I would have to choose leather armor and other lightweight items…
[Excuse me, but which is the best armor here?] Ah, I don't want metal armor."
[Other than the metal armor? Since that was the case, the striped rhinoceros 'armor was the best.」
[Striped rhinoceros?]
"As its name suggests, it is a rhinoceros with stripes on its body. This kind of armor was made from their skin and was stronger and more durable than ordinary leather armor.」
I knocked on the armor he mentioned. It was indeed very hard.
[Even so, is this still weaker than metal armor?」
"Of course... Generally speaking, this is the case for defensive equipment that is not endowed with magic power.」
Mana Endowment. I remember that this is referring to items that have been added with magic effects. Some of the tools that had been endowed with magic power were found in ancient ruins. They were expensive, but most of them came from the Magic Kingdom in the far east.
[Then, do you sell defensive equipment endowed with magic power here?」
[Can I use this to enter the shop?」
When he saw me take out the medal that the Duke had given me, his expression changed.
As I had caused trouble for the boss, I paid a silver coin as a tip and walked out of the shop as an apology. I looked at the map and walked straight to Belkoto. While walking in the capital, I discovered something. Other than humans, there were many other races in this world, which surprised me once again. These people were called demi-humans, and each race had all sorts of characteristics. The one that surprised me the most was the orcs. I saw Orcs here from time to time, but I didn't see any when I was in Rysagan. Although they were called Orcs, they were different from the Taurens in Greek mythology. They were not made of human bodies and animal heads. For example, there was a fox Orc girl walking in front of me. Other than her eye-catching ears and tail, she was no different from an ordinary human. She had long golden hair and a pair of ears that were the same color as her hair. Only the tip of her ears was black, but the tip of her fluffy tail was white. In addition to the ears on the head, there was another pair of ears where the human ears were. I remember that Lyndsey said that the orcs 'ears were divided into main ears and auxiliary ears, but I don't know the details. Aiya, this foxy girl kept looking around as if she was looking for something…Could she be lost? She looked rather confused. Speaking of which, did no one want to help her? It seemed that the cities of this world were also very cold.……Alright, I'll talk to her.
[I'm sorry, what's wrong?]」
[Ya, ya ah! What Element?"
Ah, she was so scared that she ate a screw and looked at me with her almond-shaped eyes wide open. Please calm down. I'm not a suspicious person…I don't look suspicious, right? Seeing the other party so frightened made me lose my confidence.
"Because you look very confused, I want to ask if you're in any trouble.」
" I, we were afraid that we would get separated, so we decided on a rendezvous point in advance, but I don't know where it is..."
The little fox was dejected, and its voice became weaker and weaker. Perhaps it was my psychological effect, but her ears and tail seemed to droop weakly.
[Where are you going to meet?」
"Uh... I remember it's a magic house called 'Revel'.」
"I can take you to that shop. It's on the way.」
[Really? Thank you very much!"
Ah, she ate a screw again. What a calm child. This girl should be younger than Elsa and the others, probably around twelve or thirteen years old. I brought the girl and started walking according to the map. Her name seemed to be Alma.
"Mr. Minano, are you here for sightseeing in the capital?」
" No, I'm here to work, but my work is over. Where's Elma?"
"I also came with my sister when she came to work because I wanted to see the capital.」
Alma said with a smile, completely different from her frightened expression just now. We talked about unimportant topics, and after a while, the magic house appeared in front of us. There was a female orc standing in front of the shop. After she noticed us, she quickly rushed over.
[Alma!]
[Ah, sister!]
[I'm so worried! I suddenly got separated from you…!"
At this moment, my sister seemed to have noticed my existence. She bowed deeply to me and said,
"Thank you for taking care of my sister.」
"No, no. It's great that she found you.」
Although she insisted on thanking me, I said that I had something to do and rejected her. This was just a small matter. There was no need for so much courtesy. I left after saying my goodbyes, but Alma kept waving goodbye to me. After separating from the two of them, I realized that the closer I got to Belcoto, the more fashionable the surrounding buildings and shops looked. After a while, the shop I was looking for came into view.
"Welcome to Belcoto. Is this your first time here?」
"Ah, yes, this is the first time.」
"Then, do you have any tokens that can prove your identity or recommendation letters written by other guests?」
So that was the case. Unless introduced by someone else, this place refused to serve customers who came for the first time. I took out the duke's medal from my pocket and showed it to the salesgirl. The shop assistant didn't panic like the owner of the armor shop. She bowed deeply and said,
"Thank you, the confirmation is complete. So, what kind of item are you looking for today?」
[Yes. Take the Silver Mirror Shield as an example. It was endowed with magic power to reflect attack magic, while the Powerful Gauntlets were endowed with magic power to strengthen muscle strength.」
…I can indeed feel magic power from these defensive equipment. Wait a minute? When did I become able to sense magic power? Forget it, this is most likely an ability bestowed upon me by the God of Heaven. I'd better not think about it anymore.
[Then, what kind of item are you looking for?」
"Ah, I don't want metal…I should say that I want a lighter but sturdy armor.」
"I see... In that case, how about this leather jacket? It was endowed with magic power that was resistant to blades, flames, and lightning.」
Well, it's not bad…but the design of the dress is a little…because it has sequins, I think it's too fancy. To be honest, the dragon pattern embroidered on my back made me feel embarrassed. My gaze inadvertently stopped on a white coat in the corner of the shop. It was a long coat with fur on the collar and sleeves.
[What about this one?]
[This garment is equipped with resistance to blades, heat, cold, and attacks, as well as magic resistance against high-level offensive magic. However, there is a small problem...]
[Problem?]
" After wearing this piece of clothing, it can only exert the effect of magic resistance based on the user's attributes. "Not only that, once the user is attacked by an attribute that the user does not possess, the damage will be doubled…"
…In other words, people with fire attributes would have excellent flame resistance after wearing it. However, if the user did not have the adaptability of wind attributes, not only would this clothing not be able to display the lightning resistance effect, but it would also suffer more serious damage…So that was the case. It was really a double-edged sword. If the opponent only had one attribute, such as a Flame Devil, then this defensive equipment would be beneficial in battle. However, against opponents with multiple attributes, the risk was too great. But this has nothing to do with me. After all, I have the adaptability of all attributes.
[Can I try it on?]
I took off my coat and put it on while confirming its touch. Yes, there was no problem with the size. I tried to move my body casually. It wouldn't hinder my movements, and there was no discomfort when I wore it. I liked it very much.
[How much is this one?]
"This one is cheaper. The price is eight gold coins.」
It was about 800,000 yen. The shop assistant said that it was 'cheaper,' but she actually asked for such a price. It was so expensive... but considering the effect, this amount did make sense. My view of money is becoming more and more abnormal…
" Then, I'll buy this one. Here's the money."
The salesgirl returned to the counter. She placed the two gold coins she was looking for on a silver tray and brought them over. I took the gold coins and put them in my wallet before walking to the door.
"Thank you. You are welcome to visit our shop again in the future.」
I left Belcoto under the gaze of the bowing salesgirl. I've bought some great armor, although it's a little expensive…After buying the coat, I walked into a nearby restaurant to grab some food. I then returned to the magic house," Dew Flower." Alma and the others had already left. I looked around the shop and saw a book related to non-elemental magic, so I bought it. In order to learn the magic of the other six attributes, many people would go to the magic house to buy magic books, memorize the incantations, and practice diligently so that they could use them. However, since non-elemental magic was a personal spell, it was impossible to buy such a magic book. However, there was a book that looked like an interesting magic dictionary on sale here. The book contained all the rare magic that had appeared in the world. Of course, almost all of the magic recorded in it was non-elemental magic, but to me, it was a treasure trove. Moreover, the price of this book was not expensive. Of course, this was not a textbook for people to learn magic. It was just a book for people to read for fun. I also went to buy some biscuits and planned to give them to Miss Natsuya as a gift. Next, I walked to the gathering point. The sun was about to set.
[Ah, it's finally here.] You ~ are ~ so ~ slow ~ ah!"
[Eh? Everyone is back so soon? Isn't it time to gather?"
When I walked back to the hostel, the three of them had already piled a large amount of luggage into the carriage and were waiting in front of the carriage. How many things did you buy?
[Aiya? Nan Ye, you're actually wearing a coat!」
Else said in a teasing tone and looked at me as if he was grading me.
"Ah, this is a coat bestowed by magic. It could reduce all elemental attack magic, and it also had the effects of resistance to blades, heat, cold, and attacks.」
[Amazing, it can actually reduce all attribute attacks…How much does this cost?]」
[Eight gold coins.]
[So expensive!] But considering the effects, the price wouldn't be too high.」
It seemed that Else's view of money was becoming more and more biased. With everyone present, we boarded the carriage and prepared to set off. Musashi sat in the driver's seat, holding the reins. As the carriage was filled with items bought by the girls, the space became narrow, so I sat next to Musashi. If we use the portal here, we can immediately return to Rysagan. But we didn't want to attract attention, so we decided to use this spell after we left the capital. When they left the capital, they did not need to take out their medals to pass through. The carriage continued on the road for a while, pulling away. When the king's city was only the size of a sesame seed, we asked Musashi to stop the carriage.
Musashi did not know what a portal was, so she asked in disbelief.
[We'd better leave from the street before we enter Resagan, right?」
[Yes, I think it's better to do this.」
Upon hearing Elsa's words, the scene of the teleportation destination appeared in my mind. I gathered my magic power.
[Teleportation Gate.]
A door of light appeared in front of us. I made this door transform into a size large enough for a carriage to pass through.
[What, what's going on?] What's going on?"
I urged the panic-stricken Musashi to drive the carriage forward. After passing through the door of light, the huge sunset was just about to set over the western mountains of Ressagan.
[This spell is indeed very convenient!]
"The carriage will take five days to travel. It will arrive in an instant.」
"It's a pity that we can't teleport to places we haven't visited before. This is a bit troublesome.」
"... Uh, we've been living here... We just came back from work..."
[Oh, are you guests staying here? I'm sorry, I've never seen you before."
[May I ask where Miss Miyatsu went?]
[Eh? Everyone's back? So fast!"
Miss Miyatsu, who was wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen.
[Miss Miyatsu, who is this?]
[Ah, you haven't seen him before? He's my father. He just came back from a faraway place and missed you.」
[I'm Dolan. Nice to meet you.]」
[Yes…]
Seeing him reach out his hand, I reflexively shook his hand. His hair color was indeed very similar to Miss Meixia's, and their personalities should be similar as well. They both seemed to be very casual about trifles. That's great. At least Miss Miyatsu doesn't look like her father. Mr. Dolan seemed to have gone to the south to buy seasonings. It was almost impossible to harvest salt and pepper in this area, so they would buy them in large quantities along with the other shops.
"Ah, Mr. Dolan, please arrange a room for her.」
[Okay.]
Mr. Dolan pushed Musashi's back and led her to the counter. While she was going through the formalities, we moved our luggage back to the room while Else returned the carriage.
"Ah, Miss Meixia, this is a gift.」
I handed the biscuits to Miss Meixia as a gift. When I heard her question, I smiled and answered briefly. To be honest, we didn't stay for long before we came back. We haven't even been in the capital for a day. Now, as long as I use the Teleportation Gate, I can go there at any time. The next time I visit the capital, I must take a good look. Miss Miyatsu invited us to dinner to celebrate our safe return. We enjoyed a lot of the dishes Miss Miyatsu brought out, but Musashi ate several times more than us. She really couldn't stand it. She was a child who consumed a lot of fuel. Miss Meixia and Mr. Dolan were dumbfounded. Later, in addition to the accommodation fee, they also charged Musashi for food. I think so.
