-- In Alista's Weapons Shop --
"Guest, do you need anything?ah! Isn't this Lord Curia?!" The owner of the weapons shop saw Clyde walking to the shop to pick up his sword, and hurriedly stepped forward to entertain him, and then he saw Curia beside Clyde.
"Don't make a fuss, I'm just buying weapons with him. Curia said.
"I remember!Lord Curia, your sword has been destroyed in the battle with the demons, don't worry, I'll definitely pick a weapon that satisfies you!"
"Clyde, is there really a sword you want here? The mid-length sword should be a dexterous type that is suitable for slashing, and the longsword here doesn't seem to be ・・・・・・・・・・・" Curia said as she looked around.
"No, this sword can be ・・・・・・・・・" Finally, Clyde picked an unpretentious broad-edged sword, which looked like it had been replaced with a blade under a cross, and it seemed that something could be added to the sword body, but the materials used to forge this sword were really rubbish, and basically Clyde would break it as soon as it was broken!
"Is this sword really okay?, it seems that the material is just ordinary steel, and there are a lot of impurities involved・・・・・・・・・" Kuria said with a slight frown, this kind of sword he usually doesn't look at.
"It's barely possible to enchant it, as long as it's engraved with two runes that are strong and sharp~" Clyde's words once again set off a monstrous wave in Curia's heart, not only forging, but also the enchantment of weapons・・・・・・・・・・・
"It's almighty・・・・・・・・・・・ Curia murmured.
"Hmm, what did you say?" Clyde didn't hear Curia's murmur, he had been thinking about how to strengthen the trash sword in his hand.
"No! nothing・・・・・・・・・・・" Curia said with a slight bitterness.
"Lord Curia, your sword is here!" said the head of the weapons shop as he approached Curia with a brand-new knight's broadsword, with no Clyde in his eyes.
"Well, by the way, let's settle it for my friend too. Curia glanced at Clyde on the side and said.
"Uh・・・・・・・・ yes! I got it・・・・・・・・" The weapon shop owner's smile suddenly froze, and he glanced at Clyde in disbelief, then glanced at the longsword in Clyde's hand, and said, "The two weapons together are a total of 10 gold coins and 2 silver coins (knight's greatsword gold coin, longsword silver coins)." ”
"Here, don't look for it!" Kuria put eleven gold coins on the counter, took his new weapon and left the weapon shop with Clyde.
"It's hard to understand, is the benefit really that good?" said Clyde as he left the weapons shop, looking puzzled.
"You have been exploring the extraterritorial areas all year round, and naturally you don't know how many people in the territory are fighting for power, and the previous black mage is the product of 'that (all-out competition)'. Curia felt that it was boring to say this in front of Clyde, but he still wanted to talk to Clyde, who had been in the Outlands for many years, about the things in the Domain.
"If you can, please tell me more about it. ”
"Okay・・・・・・・・・・・・・
――――In the City Lord's Hall――――
Because of the death of the old city lord, the current Arista can be described as anarchy, the new city lord has not yet come, and the corpse of the demon is still idle in this city lord's hall, the strange thing is that the corpse of the demon has not been left for too long to decay, but the blood with extremely corrosive and toxin has coagulated into a piece of crystal-like things.
"Drakes, if I had stopped you from doing that, I'm afraid there wouldn't be these things today・・・・・・・・・・・・" Klinos, who was sitting next to the demon's corpse, looked at the demon's corpse with a confused look, even if the demon died, the old city lord's body still hadn't changed back, which meant that his soul had been completely assimilated by the demon・・・・・・・・・・・
"Huh?" At this moment, Klinus seemed to have discovered something, and there seemed to be something in the right eye of the demon head・・・・・・・・・・・・・
"Sword?" In order to prevent himself from being eroded by poisonous blood, Klinos used his magic power to pull out the eyes in the demon's skull, and when he looked closely, he found that the blood that had crystallized seemed to be mixed with a medium-long sword that had been melted into shape!
"It seems that Master Clyde's sword can actually pierce the devil's eyeball, which is worthy of ・・・・・・・・・・・" Suddenly, Clinos seemed to think of something, and the movement in his hand suddenly stopped, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the cut surface of the demon's neck.
If the sword was inserted into the demon's eye by Clyde in the first place, what exactly is the weapon that cut off the demon's head・・・・・・・・・・
And he didn't see any other weapons on Clyde at the time, and even that backpack couldn't hold a weapon the size of a mid-long sword!
"Master Clyde is becoming more and more mysterious~ But travelers are like this, they don't have a purpose to help others, they do things completely on their own hearts, they are like heroes in the story・・・・・・・・・" Clinos sighed, waved his hand again, and stuffed his eyes back into their original positions.
"Speaking of which, the Holy Maiden is almost there・・・・・・・・・" Clinos said, getting up and looking in the direction of the door.
-- The central avenue of Alista City --
"Thank you for explaining so much, Curia, but ・・・・・・・・・・・・" Before Clyde could finish his words, there was an exclamation from the gates.
"Look! it's Her Highness's carriage!"
"Holy Maiden?!, really here!!!"
"The Goddess of Light is !!"
"It's the first time I've seen a saint!
There were many such voices from the crowd, and nearly a few hundred people were crowded on the main road, although it was very crowded, but no one dared to approach the carriage of the Holy Maiden, and the crowd seemed to consciously give way for the carriage to move forward.
"That's the Holy Maiden・・・・・・・・・" It can be heard from Curia's tone that he still admires the church and the Holy Maiden very much.
"Is it ・・・・・・・・・・・" Clyde didn't feel the slightest thing, or that in the quadrillions of evil factors in his body, he didn't care about the saint's existence, and he didn't have much interest in the saint.
Moreover, in his cognition, the Holy Maiden is just a mascot of the church, and a few hands of light magic are already in the sky, and it has no substantive effect, and it is easy to become a burden strategically.
"Then I'll go back first, you can see the saint here, and I think Klinos will definitely send someone to call you later." Clyde said, holding his sword and walking towards the Adventurer's Inn.
"Clyde?eh~ That's true・・・・・・・・・・・" By the time Curia reacted, Clyde had disappeared into the crowd.
――――In the Adventurer's Hotel in Alista City――――
Pushing open the door of the inn, Clyde found that Culis was not lying on the counter as usual, probably running to see the so-called Holy Highness, but just in time, he may be a little mobile when he is enchanted, and no one will be found when he is there!
Walking to his room, Clyde pulls out the key and opens the door, revealing a room with no decoration other than the essentials (bed, table, chairs, etc.).
"Whew! Anyway, let's set up an enchantment that shields the magic. As he spoke, Clyde pulled out seven crystals of different colors from his bosom and placed them in various corners of the room.
Pleiadene, word, magic, enchantment.
One of the usual spells of the Seven Dawn mages of that world, it is designed to deal with tracking magic, but it is of little use to druids who rely on scent and nature to track.
"Alright! let's start the transformation・・・・・・・・ Clyde pulled out his sword, looked at the seemingly delicate longsword, but was actually crude, and took out a magicless carving knife-shaped crystal from his backpack!
"First of all, remove the impurities from the sword・・・・・・・・・" I saw Clyde brush his hand over the blade of the sword, a golden light flashed, and countless pitch-black particles fell from under the blade, and gradually the broad-bladed sword, which was originally relatively beautiful, turned into a tattered scrap metal.
"Armed alchemy!" Immediately after, Clyde stretched out his right index finger and slashed on the broad-edged sword, and suddenly the entire broad-edged sword began to change as if flowing water, the general shape did not change, but the volume became a little smaller, the hilt had more decorations and textures, the tail of the sword was fan-shaped, and the central part of the sword tail also had a fan-shaped through hole, and the corners on both sides of the through hole were also engraved with '[Perseverance]''' Unyielding' These four words belong only to that world.
"Well, the most important enchantment is next!" At this time, the sword displayed in Clyde's hand was no longer the unpretentious broad-bladed sword it used to be, but more like a holy sword in the shape of a cross sword, although the sword body was not engraved with runes and fairy marks, but the shape was infinitely close to the holy sword in the hands of the brave described in the classical novel!
"Sharp, Carry・all・before・one, Strong, Light, On・the・undead, Broken・magic, and then Sacred・・・・・・・・・・・" As Clyde's carving knife continued to carve runes with powerful magical power on the sword, this inferior broad-edged sword, which was only idle in the weapons shop, became a veritable holy sword!
"And then add the mark of the elf clan!" After the last step of the holy sword, Clyde took out the other side of the turquoise crystal carving knife from his backpack, and carved a golden pattern similar to that used for decoration on the corner of the blade of the sword, raising the luxury of this sword to another level!
Not only that, after adding the Fairy Mark, the power of each rune was more or less blessed by the power of the Mark, making the level of the entire sword more than twice as high as before!
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Chapter 8 of the new book!
It's a pity that this holy sword will not be taken out and used lightly in the later plot, because it is too gorgeous, so another (magical) combat method will appear in the next few chapters!
