Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist? Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Spring of the 3rd Year

Two years have pa.s.sed since I came to Mildgard, and I have turned 17.
I travel back and forth Volton town and Wedgefort, working hectically. Wedgefort town is bustling with adventurers and merchants, and I hear that the number of stationed soldiers there is close to 3,000.

It was like the two years pa.s.sed by in a flash. Receiving kindness from everyone at Bohd Village, I was able to prepare myself to live in this world. With the personality and policies of G.o.dwin-sama, the lord ruling Volton, it was a good town easy to live in, and i understood very well that the his Majesty was a wise king when he summoned me. I think Norn-san chose to send me to that place after considering the surrounding environment.

These several months, I've been making an effort to strengthen the 『Sword of the Absorber』 that Sophia and I use with the ores and ingots we got from the dungeon during our work breaks.

The reason is because the ores and ingots we obtained contain a small amount of orichalc.u.m. But it isn't much though, and not an amount that can be forged into a sword. So I thought to use synthesis to compound our swords.

As a result, the sword bestowed with the Light attribute was the Sacred Sword Amaterasu. It deals tremendous damage to enemies that are unaffected by physical attacks like the undead. The effect of having been trans.m.u.ted with orichalc.u.m was that it raised the hardness and toughness by several degrees, boasting a cutting edge that would easily cut through adamant.i.te alloy
The sword blade s.h.i.+nes a bright blue, and it was remade with a workmans.h.i.+p that wasn't inferior.
I'll have Sophia use this sword.

The other one, the Absolute Sword Tsukuyomi, which was bestowed with Dark and Lightning attributes, had become a slightly powerful magic sword.
If one is even grazed by this sword, it is able to deal damage to the mind/soul*(?). Furthermore, it adds an extra paralysis with the Lightning attribute. Given that it still has the special characteristic of absorbing magic power, a fiendish magic sword was completed.

I had Marnie-san, who was working as a maid, always wear a cla.s.sic long skirt maid outfit, but, while this is limited to within our house, it's like the backlash was extreme when she wears her plain high-exposure clothes. According to Laeva, it is a disposition of the Rabbitkin to have a tendency for seeking a partner that is strong, and she intends to make me, a strong male. like her. I should discuss this with Sophia and Maria. Well, I definitely wouldn't be able to keep my reasoning.

Compared to the haggard-looking woman she was when she had first arrived, she's now cheerful. She seems to be on good terms with Sophia and the others too. Apparently, she's taking lessons on self-defense dagger techniques and taijutsu from Maria. Once afraid of Kaede, Marnie-san has now opened up to her. And she appeals strongly to me. If a voluptuous woman with a dynamite body appeals to me with a pa.s.sionate gaze, even I think it would only be a matter of time before the dam of my desires bursts.

This is how a turbulent 3rd year started for me.
