Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai

"--I thought I was going to die."

"I will never go to this forest again."

"Kinako! Come on, Kinako!

We were on our way home full of creativity to the evening ice town.

The hunting in the woods, which spread out outside the town, accomplished all of its objectives.

Two deer like jazz, one herbivore like cattle, and five horned rabbits. A considerable amount of meat was available.

And we have a bird for reconnaissance. Six gray birds resemble crows. And one white owl. The owl was pretty big and I thought it was a monster, but since the 'tuned wave (echo)' passed in one shot, it looked like an animal.

In addition, when combined with the material and core of the monster defeated on the road, it was a bigger harvest than expected, but honestly, it is difficult to say that this hunt was a great success.

Because this forest is more dangerous than the town. After all, even in my previous dungeon experience, it was a dangerous zone to say the least.

"Alfrost": A big snow-gray wolf with two necks. I named it after an Ice Attribute version of Orthos. It's not the boss, it's the wild creature living in the woods who usually leads the Snowgray Wolf. Although it is the beginning, it also has the same strength as the boss Ortoros, and the leadership to accurately move the wolf.

Luckily, the apricot hit Alfrost critically, so I managed to defeat him, and the herd ran away... but then when I encountered a crowd led by two Alfrost, I had to run desperately. We managed to escape by scattering poisonous swamps and smoke.

"Armored White Bear": The snowy mountain version of the armored bear, the monster of my cause. A white fur that can only be described as a white bear is wrapped in a light blue crust reminiscent of ice. I don't spit out ice braces or create ice claws, but it's a very troublesome monster to count by its simple physics and its persistence to attack once it's seen as bait.

He could easily be defeated just by the first one. But is the environment good here? Let's go, let's go, one after the other. I don't know if you guys are a herd or not. It was pretty bad when I was attacked about 10 at once. When the formation collapsed and Kinako became isolated, armored white bears and Tyman, I thought I'd have to abandon them.

In any case, the armored white bear looks stronger than the Kigurumi-style Kinako, but for some reason it was unexpected that Kinako won. Having been quite close to each other and chasing quite a few wounds, Hayama-kun stuck to Kinako with a crying face all the way home.

"Spike Mammoth": A mammoth-shaped monster that I saw during a town reconnaissance. Two characteristic long mammoth teeth, a thick four-legged ankle that steps on the snowy land and a wide back are spike-like mammoths with an aggressive look at the end of the century.

We didn't want to hunt him from the front with the giant body that would beat him in Grimgor and the boulder.

I was going through it, but this mammoth is surprisingly violent. He attacked me. Mammoth's giant body is more aggressive than Roylops.

This is the next moment when I thought it was impossible to stop Apricot's advanced attack with a single magic shot.

Crimson Rex: Tiranosaurus in bright red. It's the size of the black Sandar Tirano I once encountered in the woods, enough to fight salamanders.

Is this the result of adapting to the cold, or is it covered in bird-like feathers instead of scales? Recently, he often heard that dinosaurs were not scales, but feather-growing, similar to the feather-growing Tyrannosaurus predictions seen in theoretical theories.

So, he attacked the mammoth that was rushing towards us from the side. A red giant body that should stand out in the snow forest. But we didn't realize he existed until he jumped out of the trees.

Anyway, after this Crimson Rex appeared, we started retreating quickly. He's after mammoths, not little things like us.

But just in case, while cooking the smoke screen, Lex and Mammoth managed to escape the fierce struggle.

"Gogma": I saw Gomma's troops in the woods because they were really everywhere... Their range of action tends to be with us, so we basically eliminate them as soon as we find them, but this time there's nothing more than passing through. It was the gophers who led them here. And two.

Sesame bear boasts a boss monster class strength. It's the elite in the goma, the elite in the elite.

Because there are two such sesame bears in one unit, it seems like a pretty good unit. Most of the goats are also composed of goats, so few are just goats.

The equipment is clearly in place, and that formation will allow us to hunt in this forest. In other words, they are more powerful than us today. We must never fight them head-on.

"Eyes High Elemental": He escaped from the Crimson Rex VS Spike Mammoth Monster Duel and started retreating from the woods to return to Fairy Square.

Looks like an ice giant. Ice Golem is more expressive, but I know it's an ice elemental monster, so its official name is Eyes High Elemental.

I mean, because Elemental is a spiritual spirit, I thought that Hayama-kun would not be able to do anything about it, but I knew once again that it would be a monster because it would be nothing. Hayama-kun said, even with similar spirits, there are people who listen to people's stories and people who don't understand at all. It looks the same from us, but the essence is different. There must be a difference between humans and goats.

Anyway, we had nothing better to do than defeat Eyes High Elemental, a non-negotiable monster. There were several ice giants about three meters tall, and the fierce snowman "Eyes Elemental", which was often seen in the town, was also a herd and attacked us.

Exhausted by the succession of battles and retreats in the woods, we became quite the opponents.

I managed to clear it up and break through, but when I heard the noise, the swarm of snow and ash wolves was approaching, and we really thought we were going to die and came back here.

"But there was a life-saving harvest, so let's say it's good."

First of all, we have food for the moment. The deer, cattle and rabbits we hunted ensured enough meat.

In addition to this, some groceries were acquired by searching houses around Fairy Square. They also find vegetables, legumes, or things that are seen as preserved foods from the beginning, as well as flour.

In addition, the actual food test found that spices and edible oils can be used if thawed.

This icy town is easier to get groceries than it was at the school tower, and there are many kinds of hidden gems available. This is probably because the whole environment where humans still lived remains frozen.

"The quality of the monster material is good just because it was strong, but collecting a lot is too risky. We have to use it carefully."

I miss the time when everyone in the class was together. If I had been a full member, I would have been able to safely and reliably hunt monsters in this area.

It is common sense in the dungeon that there is no other way to do what you don't want. It's important to use the precious materials you've earned with your life.

"Hmm, Cairo did well, so I don't have to renew my fur gear."

I think alongside the materials arranged in the entrance.

Okay, here's the weapon first.

Especially Hayama-kun. Red Lance is an excellent equipment for amateurs to easily gain fire power, but it's not that powerful in attacking this area.

More than that, I think Hayama-kun needs special equipment to make use of his powers as a spiritual magician. His power is still unknown, and how far he can pull it out or increase it is likely to be the key to his strategy.

Unless you give me new abilities, I can see that I and Apricot are roughly at their limit right now. In terms of growth, Hayama can expect it. [M]

I don't know which spirits are good, so I made a special equipment with as many attributes as I could prepare.

"Fire Wheel": I have used fire iron in Cairo and scenic iron in air launchers. This bracelet is a combination of these two PV irons that have already been used as a material. I think that the light stone material will become the home of the Spirit that matches the attributes, and yet, what the Spirit Magician Iwayama-kun wears from time to time is a condition for successfully lodging the Spirit. Zippo, smartphones, and water bottles are the tools that Hayama-kun has without letting go.

Hayama-kun can't use any attribute of magic on himself, so wearing this bracelet will allow him to shoot offensive magic like Red Lance, but if the Spirit stays, he will be able to manipulate the fire, wind, and power of both sides.

I wear it on my left wrist like a watch.

"Current Water Ring": A necklace made by combining lightning iron and water light iron that was not used in the main equipment of the school tower.

"Terra Belt": A belt that uses plenty of earth light iron produced by apricots with enthusiasm. Not only the hardware, but also the leather belt was pushed like a tattoo to increase the amount of earth light iron, so it eventually turned into a fairly rugged and punctured appearance.

"Eyes Amulet": An amulet luxuriously made from a single piece of ice crystal prepared by the Chairman. It's a little big, so it hangs from the terra belt on your hips.

More than a weapon, it is the exclusive equipment of a spiritualist who has become an accessory.

All of them are decorations that just have no effect, but it is up to Hayama-kun's Spiritualist to keep them alive.

It covers not only the materials at hand, but also fire, wind, water, lightning, earth, ice, and even six attributes. With the help of all spirits, it will become an all-purpose sorcerer class that uses all attributes.

As such, the equipment for Hayama-kun, whose main material is the material, was finished much sooner than I thought.

So next, I'm going to make a weapon that reflects the excellence of my smelting skills.

"Aim, Golden Gun!

Produced is a clay magic weapon for apricots. Considering the precedent of the golden revolver made by Tindo-kun, I would like to make it into a gun instead of a cane.

Nevertheless, reproducing that effect in pistol size is technically impossible even with the materials I have, so it will be less powerful and the size of the gun will increase. I don't think Hannah can make the same thing because it's special.

However, as long as apricots are more powerful and efficient than bare hands, they are sufficient for weapon performance.

I knew I couldn't use a handgun.

Even if you carve a goma magic circuit, you will need space. I want the size of a rifle.

But it's not that big. It's not that bad. Besides, I don't mind getting heavy. Weapon always walks with it, and weights are a big shackle than being a proud avant-garde.

"But if it comes in the form of a gun, I want to be able to reload it... mmm..."

I was worried and immersed in training, and when I realized it, it was dawn.

But it's done, and there's a satisfactory gun.

"Rock Blaster Swordoff": Shotgun type earth magic gun with barrel cut. Instead of a lifering, engrave the Biscuitry and Magic Circuit, and shoot it through this barrel, it should be more powerful.

But his best feature is the presence of bullets. Since it's soil magic to blow, it's not a wax that fires with gunpowder. All you need is a warhead that pierces the opponent.

Metal bullets smelted by the Iron Ore Smelter do not appear to be just a lump of metal, but also have the properties of earth magic. In other words, it can be fired using a magical earth technique.

Bullets not only increase in size, but also in strength depending on the quality of the metal they have been smelted into, and they can be further increased by incorporating a core. In terms of ammunition replenishment, if there is a metal material, it is a big advantage that apricots can prepare as many bullets as they want.

With Apricot's current strength, if it's lower attack magic, it's faster to shoot without a hand than to hold a gun, but if it's intermediate or higher, it gets bigger and smaller, and requires a reservoir. Even if it has magic, it also requires different parts of activation speed and concentration.

Use this rock blaster to reduce the area a little. Since the gun itself is engraved with a surgical technique, it is omitted until it is activated and the process of refining ammunition is also omitted. The effect of the chopped goma magic circuit also increases the speed of the accumulated magic.

He should be useful when shooting earth magic at intermediate or higher levels.

"How about an apricot?

"Hmm, better than not."

My work of confidence ended in a very subtle evaluation. [M]

I tried my best to make a pump action to load the drug chamber with bullets. No matter how simple the shotgun pump action is, it's very difficult to build it from scratch. I made it from a spring, and I remade it with the wrong dimensions.

Well, the structure was just an extension of the magic wand, not a gun, so it was enough to eliminate the reloading function and just put the bullet into the barrel... that's not the direction to say.

"But it might be easier to shoot an intermediate attack right away. If you're just ready to shoot, you'll get really tired."

Standing by to shoot intermediate or higher attacks at any time while alert is a common occurrence. I see, at such a time, when I suppress it on the brink of activation, will my magic and concentration be exhausted?

"Thank you, Kotaro. I'll use it carefully."

With a playable smile and a big hug on my chest, I felt rewarded for my efforts all night long.

Well, I fell asleep, but I still have some equipment to build when I wake up. There are still materials left.

Let's make Kinako's armor.

Kinako is an important avant-garde fighter supporting our party front. Just because you're a bear doesn't mean you shouldn't wear armor. I'm fighting with my body tight, so I don't think it's essential to have protective equipment to protect myself.

Fortunately, most of the fur and crust remains intact. Wearing enough armor to cover Kinako's large body would be enough.

"Grey and White War Beast Armor": Armor exclusively for Kinako made from materials such as Alfrost and Armor White Bear. Both are particularly thick fur, covering the chain mail made by smelting iron products gathered from the house and finished with heavy yet flexible armor.

In addition, the gauntlet is also made in a set. For Kinako, who basically attacks with both arms, the Gauntlet is both a shield and a weapon.

Based on the prized stunning arm crust of the armored white bear, the apricot is refined and reinforced with high-quality metal, and also combines earth and wind photoiron. I also tried the possibility of spiritual award by Hayama-kun. When it comes to the soil and wind, it is because it was the only thing that was left in my hand. I'm sorry if I'm not fit, Kinako.

"Guren's Collar": Equipment exclusively for Venison, made with iron without fire. In fact, I heard from Hayama-kun that by using the power of the Fire Spirit, it is possible to emit flames and so on. Then, if you can mount more Fire Spirits with the equipment, you can hope to improve the firepower even more.

I was a little worried about making it, but Benigno was one of us. Equipment should be given equally. Pets are family theory.

"--In the meantime, is this where it is now? Ah, I'm so tired."

Sleeping on the grass of the fairy square. The production of one-op equipment over the past few days has given me a lot of fatigue. Still, it's pretty easy just because there's an "iron ore smelting team" of apricots. Without this, we'll have to use the bad metal.

Even the entrance, which was completely out of materials and turned into a cluttered warehouse, is now quite refreshing.

All that remains is a core that has been used as sparingly as possible in the future.

"I've got all the birds for scouting, but, um, I guess I wanted to add more corpse dolls."

As for the strength of the monster, I thought Alfrost or Armored White Bear would be just right, but both were used up in equipment creation. Anyway, there's a risk of going hunting in that forest. If I run into Crimson Rex by accident, it's over.

"... or Ruji"

"What's the matter, Lem, do you want a knee pillow?

As usual, Lem helped me with my overnight work, so if I'm tired, I have to rest.

However, when she sifted the baby girl's form of lem, she shook her neck and pointed to the bag containing the extra core.

"You want a core?

Lem nodded.

It's the first time I've asked for anything from Lem. I also wonder if you want the core... or maybe you need magic replenishment.

"Fine, Lem, use as much as you like."

If so, it is not a case of sparing. When I handed over the whole bag, Lem fished with a small hand and took out one core. Is that size and sparkle from Alfrost?

So, what are we going to do with that core?

Ahhhhhhh

Drop the core as Lem prolongs his voice. Then, the shadow spreading to your feet creates a ripple and the core is swallowed up -- a black cloud erupts. This is a very similar reaction to making a corpse doll.

This is probably the next moment I thought,

"Kyoiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Next to the lem is a double-angled raptor, characterized by red and black scales.

Definitely, this is Alpha, who lost it when he fled the school tower.

"Perhaps we can not only transform, but also create a double with a core!

"Bhhhhhhh, I can do it."

It is definitely a new function.

Without materials, if you can create even the core in its previous form, you can reduce production costs, and whatever you want, you can do it on the spot like a Summoner.

"All right, well done, Lem's a good boy."

Now I'm ready to be satisfied. Tomorrow, after a day of rest, we will finally move towards the boss strategy in this area.
