Manowa Chapter 10

Let’s create a golem

Editor: Sher

“Urrryaaa!!!”

Master’s halberd dancing. In an instant the grey golems scattered about after they had just received one blow.

“Wow, that’s amazing!”

Yumika agrees with Kazane’s words. Though it seems like he just sw.a.n.g it vigorously,the halberd had actually struck accurately at the stone golems stone cores.

“Practically he can finish this by himself.”

Yumika speaks with astonishment in her voice. Although she said that, Kazane and she were dealing with golems that tried to attack Master from behind. It’s not a situation where they could just gaze around leisurely.

“Urya!!”

Kazane attacks, and when it lost its balance Yumika thrust her spear.

While continuously aiming at their weak point—a stone core in their chest—their fight continues safely.

(Though it’s a bit awkward, they’re dealing with it just fine)

The one who holds admiration in their heart was not only Kazane. Even in the middle of battle, Master also payed attention to his back, but soon realized that his anxiety was needless.

(Yeah, easy win)

Kazane swung her sword, slash, and evading the attack precisely. No matter what happened she couldn’t receive any attack. Even though the grey golems were slow, their attack power is strong, with Kazane’s current strength it’s impossible to resist it.

(It’s different with the game, but I can handle a fight for survival)

Kazane smiles.  Yumika similarly feels excited since she could fight better that she had expected.

“We can do this Kazane”

“Yes, this is…”

Kazane thrust her two handed sword with all her power.

“The end!”

The core stone was smashed.

“We did it!”

“Then only three more!... eh?”

“What is it Kazane?”

As she looks at her window, Kazane notices something and raises her voice.

(Golem maker?)

Yumika can see the word written in the skill column.

“Kazane, is that!?”

“Let’s do this! Skill: ‘Golem maker’!”

Kazane hit the ground with her hand and invoked an active skill.

“Gaaooon!!”

Suddenly one more grey golem appeared.

No, this one is bigger than the others and gave the impression to be stronger than the others.

“Uwoh! Reinforcement!?”

“No, that’s our ally.”

Against the sudden development Master is confused, but Kazane calmed him down with her out of breath voice.

“Kazane, you mean…”

“Yup, it’s a summon skill that I got from grey golem. It seem that I also can make it bigger with pouring more magic power.”

As she speaks Kazane’s magic power had already hit rock bottom. It seems she had put all her magic power into it.

“Alright, do it golem-chan!”

“Gaooonn!!”

It blows away the grey golem with one punch.

“Uwah! Complete easy mode.”

Yumika said ‘somehow…’ while gripping her spear.

Of course, the battle ended not long after that.

“Gahaha, this is a big catch!”

Master said it while looking at our spoil.

After Kazane summoned the grey golem (big), under Master’s instructions, they changed their battle plan. Without aiming at their weak point the stonecore, they destroy the other parts and then take the stonecore without damaging it.

The raw material they should get from the quest are the shards of the stonecore. In front of their eyes, there are two undamaged stone cores, which are rare materials. It’s really a big catch.

“Even so, it’s a surprise that Kazane can use summoning magic. Ah now that I think about it, when you helped us yesterday, you came by flying, right?”

“Yeah, I think…”

While feeling somewhat languid because she had runned out of magic power, she answered with a laugh.

‘Golem maker’.

Though it’s an intermediate magic, since it has earth properties, it can be used till the final stage of the game. In battle it can be used to attack, defend, or to lure out enemy—a skill that can do three important things. Depending on how you use it, it’s possible to use it in many ways.

The weak point is perhaps their strength depends on the raw material which is earth and stone, a multipurpose skill.

“Ufufufu.”

“Kazane, that’s creepy.”

“Ugh.”

Kazane has been continuously grinning while looking at the skill window. It seem like a technique that is capable of summoning a companion, is to Kazane’s liking.

“Even so, Kazane. When you use it please be careful.”

“Ugh. Master, do you have to complain too.”

“Well, you see. Yesterday battle too, you lay down because you had exhausted your magic power, right? Battle doesn’t always end in one round, that’s why, you also need to work hard to control your consumption.”

“Guh… that’s true. ‘Fly’ and ‘Golem Maker’ are originally intermediate magic, so that’s why it consumes a lot of magic.”

To learn intermediate magic, it said that you need to reach at least level 25. Low level like Kazane also can learn it, but it has poor consumption rate if used by beginner.

“Well, in the end, even though the request is to gather stonecore shards, getting hands on a stonecore itself is worth congratulating. In term of gain, this is more than enough.”

Hearing that Kazane asks.

“Then, will we return now?”

“Let’s see. Actually my plan was to fight grey golems a few times, camping at night and then return tomorrow morning.”

While stroking his beard he continues.

“And I also thought of telling you guys the fundamental of adventure, how about we descend to hunt some raider dog or horn rabbit and try skin their pelt?”

Though Kazane and Yumika stiffen after hearing ‘skin their pelt’, but since it is knowledge essential for an adventurer, they gulp down the words of rejections and nod.

“Then let’s do it.”

“Please. Ah, but we didn’t receive the commission to hunt.”

Master answered Kazane’s worry with ‘It’s fine’.

“Reporting the evidence for the subjugated monsters is fine. As long you can show their raw material as evidence. We can receive money depending on the numbers from the requester if we exterminate harmful beast in Mins.h.i.+ana Kingdom.”

Mins.h.i.+ana Kingdom is a small country which is governers this area. It was founded around 500 years ago, so Kazane has never heard about it.

“And it’s an advantage for a F rank like you guys as combat commissioners. Since normally monster subjugation starts at form D rank. If you have better abilities than your rank, earning money this way is better.”

Kazane said,”I see.” While nodding.

“By the way, F rank is more like jack of all trades inside town. They usually do major cleaning, calling people, or moving. Almost like a part time work.”

Yumika said from the side.

“Well, that’s the usual.”

Kazane said it bluntly.

“They don’t need amateurs, this place is...”

“First let’s continue the hunt for one week and if it is not unreasonable, then you should apply for a D rank.”

“Not an E rank?”

“There’s no need to leave someone who can be used. I can give the recommendation. If you are interested then go apply. After all, for a party that mainly deals with subjugation, normally a guild will give its accommodation.”

“Yeah, let’s go for it!”

“Owoh! Let’s do our best!”
