VRMMO Blacksmith | Chapter 13 – New Skill and New Sword


「Fun fun fu~n ♪」

――Zakuzzakuzaku…

「Take this~Take this one, too~♪」

――Zakuzakuzaku…

「… All right, it’s done!」

Thanks to my sharpened knife, I was able to finish dismantling it in about two hours.

It would be easier to hire someone to do it, but it costs money.

《Appraisal LV. 4→5》

We got quite a lot out of this one!

The bristle furs and magic leaves can be used for armor, and the king fangs can be used for weapons. As for the eyes… Possibly, they could be used for both weapons and armor.

My Zanmaru is broken and I need to make a new one, but I’m sure I can make a great sword using these materials!

And I would like to have a metal that is stronger than steel.

「Thank you for today, Nina-san」

「Come again, Ayane-chan!」

Putting the materials in my inventory for now, I left the guild.

In order to make a sword, I need to go to a place where I can get metal.

E~to…

To the west is the city of beginnings, Fanst, and to the east is the sea. To the north is a volcano. And to the south is a forest connected to the Fanst Forest, which also leads west to the third city, Sarnalie.

Metal is likely to be in the north!

But a volcano… Do I need protection from the heat?

Ma~a, I won’t know until I go there.

「The Short Sword is not enough, so it’s better to make a temporary weapon as well. Now that’s decided…」

Therefore, I went to the Blacksmith’s Guild.

「Gale… I’ll borrow your hearth, Gol-san」

「… Of course! … Am I that similar to him…?」

He said something halfway through, but I didn’t hear it.

「Okay, let’s make it!」

I’ll get right on it, but there’s something I’d like to try out today.

「Spread out the alchemy kit… On top of that, the anvil… Okay!」

What will happen if I forge in this state…

If I place the red and blue cloths on top of the large black cloth, then place the anvil on the blue cloth, plus the materials on the red cloth, can I forge while doing alchemy…? This method I came up with, I name it Alchemy Smithing!

… As it is…

《Special Conditions Met: 《Alchemy Smithing》has been unlocked》

Seriously? Let’s get it.

M-Ma~a, I knew there was one!

That being said, let’s try alchemy smithing. If it exists as a skill, then it should be possible to do it while doing alchemy!

With that in mind, I put the bottled slime liquid and incidentally, the core, on the red cloth, and the heated tamahagane on the anvil…

「《Alchemy Smithing》… Whoa! It’s starting!」

As it started, the slime liquid came out of the bottle and started to circle around the tamahagane. Then it was absorbed by it.

「Ooh! It’s amazing… Not! I don’t have time to gawk!」

Strike the tamahagane before it cools.

Ka~ankka~ankka~ankka~an―――

As the steel gradually cools, I reheat it and strike it again.

It should also be folded about 15 times to make it tougher.

──Ka~a~an! Ka~a~an! ! Ka~a~a~an! ! !

「Fu ~u…」

Finally, a breather.

The tamahagane, which had been hammered for several hours, had turned blue overall.

Maybe it was because my level was higher than before, but it didn’t take me that long to make it.

All that’s left is to sharpen it.

―――

――

After the sword is sharpened, it takes time to make the same scabbard and handle as the previous one.

I was going to name it Karimaru, but it turned out to be more than I expected, so I went with Zuizanmaru!

T/N. Kari – means “temporary”
Zui – means “youth; freshness; purity; luster (lustre); beauty”

《Job: Blacksmith LV. 2→3》

《SmithingLV. 4→5》

《Woodworking LV. 3→4》

《Alchemy Smithing LV. 1→2》

Ooh! I’ve leveled up a lot!

◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

【Name】 Zuizanmaru: Quality 5

【Description】A sword made from slime material that can unleash water-attribute techniques. The use of slime material makes it slightly more durable than a normal sword.

【Weapon Skill】《Water Blade LV. 1》

Durability: 350

STR: 120

AGI: 35

【Producer】 Ayane

◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

Weapon skill is a skill of a weapon, so it’s like a technique that can only be used when you’re using that weapon?

I’m happy about that, but I’m also pleased with the increased durability.

Its attack power is not as good as the previous sword, but it has skills and specs that can be used for daily use.

Will this be enough to get through the volcano?… Eh? The volcano is too much for today?? T-Tomorrow then.

And with that I logged out.
