Another World Transfer In Game Character Chapter 47

[Editor: Arhael]

　I gave up on fixing Storm Blade and decided to pick up a new weapon.

　I still have another sword but it's not a bad idea to prepare a new weapon to be not suspicious.

　Unlike in the village, no one knows my abnormality. If I look conspicuous, I might be caught up with unnecessary problems, so let's prepare a plain weapon.

　There's also Alicia here who is needed to be protected, so I want to avoid trouble as much as possible.

　In addition, I'll also look for armor at the same time. It feels unbalanced if I only bought a sword.

　In Midgard Online, there were several updates that made users confused.

　One of them is the defense rework.

　As a result of several reworks, there was a situation where the attack from stronger monster rarely pa.s.s through and the countermeasures were taken hastily.

　With that update, the armor defense has little meaning and the tendency to focus on adding effects on armor has been born.

　It may be unavoidable that damage reduction effect on armor falls.

　As a result, there are many players who are wearing robe armor like Yumir even though they were a vanguard.

　And since the armor that I'm going to use in future is a robe armor with effect on strengthening HP and physically, it's also possible to put armor on top.

　Of course, with equipment from item inventory, you can't wear multiple armors.

　But physically … what if we actually equip it manually?

　That's also for experiment.

“Then, could you show me a suitable two-handed sword and a light armor?”

“Eh, a two-handed sword is it? Umm … that is heavy you know?”

　When I asked for a two-handed sword and light armor to the clerk, he looked at me with a surprised expression.

　Well, I guess that is normal because right now I'm dressed like a normal town girl.

　Such a customer requested a big sword instead of a short sword, it's impossible to not be surprised.

　I also have a young girl with me.

“Ah, even if I look like this, I'm pretty confident in my strength”

“Eh?”

　As it is, I took a great battle ax hung on the wall without waiting for the clerk's reply.

　A huge ax that challenges the limit of a human being can possess. The size is about 3 meters.

　I lifted it up lightly and swung it a couple of times while paying attention to the surroundings to not break the roof.

　Making a terrible whirlwind in one swing. The wind hit the floor and Alicia's pants were exposed to the public.

“Hyaa! Geez, Yu-nee! Please hold back a little”

“Ah, sorry sorry”

　Alicia protested cutely, but the clerk who was beside her wasn't there.

　Looking at the scene that is impossible to think it's normal, the clerk lost his words.

“A, aaaaa ……”

“Hey, it's fine right?”

“Ah, yes. That, the two-handed sword will be in that corner.”

　He fell on his knees and was laughing.

　According to the clerk, swords are expensive items because they need a lot of time and effort to make, so they are placed on the back of the store so they aren't easily carried away.

　There are many cheap weapons like spears and axes around the entrance.

　Various types of swords are displayed in a narrow place in the store and you will be surprised by the number of products.

　As expected of the weapons shop recommended by Ako-san.

　There is even a sword like iron chunk used by a hero of a certain fantasy and it seems that my 14 years old boy soul is on fire. Well, I'm a girl right now though.

“This ……. no, nothing.”

　I regained my composure as I was about to pick up that iron lump.

　Why would I pick up a prominent sword if I want to be inconspicuous …… such aspect, like the demonstration while ago. I might have been seen by other guests there.

“Do you have a sword that I can use with both hands and fits my body?”

“Yes, with customer's body, a long sword might be difficult …… what about this one?”

　The clerk handed a sword with a length about one and a half meters.

　This sword certainly existed in Midgard Online - this weapon was called a Flamberge.

　The blade is a heinous weapon and is able to show its sharpness in any angle. Of course, I have to pa.s.s on that blade though.

　With my height, a sword over 2 meters will drag quite a bit, so I'm very thankful with the size in sense.

　Because it's a light sword, it can be handled even with one hand.

　However……

“Hmm, I feel that it will bend.”

“Usually it won't bend. What kind of sword are you searching?”

　Whether the sword durability is inferior, the feeling that the sword creaks transmitted every time I swing.

“Is there nothing else st.u.r.dier? Sharpness is another matter.”

　It's a dummy weapon in the first place. So the sharpness is another matter.

　After hearing my request, the clerk brought out a big sword with a cross-shaped collar.

　I also know this in my knowledge. In the first place, this thing existed in Midgard Online.

“Claymore -“

“Yes, it's quite a thing in terms of st.u.r.diness. But it's a bit bigger though.”

　The length of the Claymore is about one meter and 80 centimeters. It doesn't reach 2 meters.

　It barely reached the limit, this is the length I can carry.

　I held it with my hands, checked the balance and swung it lightly.

“……Hmm?”

　I noticed a strange thing. I felt the Flamberge was bending, but I didn't feel it with this sword.

　It feels like a sword brought directly from Midgard Online.

“This sword …… who made it?”

“Ah, no. It's actually used and it's a purchased weapon, but because the quality is good it was displayed as a product. Do you have any dissatisfaction?”

“Ah, no. This is a good sword, isn't it?”

　Actually, it's not a good sword but similar to the weapon in-game.

　It's not a first grade, but it can be used for everyday use.

“I've decided, how much is it?”

“Because it's a Claymore, it will be 80,000 Gils for a normal price, but … because this is second hand, how about 6,000?”

“Guhh!”

　Expensive … is a sword's price this high? …

　Of course, I can afford it if you think about my a.s.sets. And considering the previous reward, I have 5,000 on hand right now.

　But … how about I go have a work and then come back again later?

“Gnu nu …”

“Ah, of course, if you are short on money, there are also a little more affordable items -“

“No, I'll buy this one! This, please!”

　A sword similar to the game is not something easy to obtain.

　It's rather cheap if there is such a sword only for 6,000. I'll buy it here even though it's a little unreasonable.

“Payment by card -“

　At that time, I noticed that my sleeves were pulled.

　When I dropped my eyes, I saw Alicia pulling my sleeve.

“What's the matter, Alicia?”

“Hey, Yu-nee. I want a sword too.”

“Isn't there a stick?”

“No, I want a sword to fight properly”

　Stick is certainly a one-handed sword but it's specialized in piercing. It's almost like a rapier, but it's doubtful if it's a weapon for a real battle.

　And the value of stick is the high magic attack correction and grant skill.

　If I were to say, I would say that it's for rear guard and the ability is about the degree of self-defense?

“Hmm …… but if Alicia fights with a sword, then I'm not much …”

“I also want to fight together with Yu-nee.”

“are we not always together”

“That's not what I mean!”

　Alicia was shaking her head and denied.

　Maybe because I was always standing in front and she shoots magic from a safe place, she started to feel guilty about it.

　But, originally it meant to be like that and Alicia's support is my lifeline.

　I thought enough of it from the battle with the golem.

“Then, do you want to study melee attacks with sticks?”

“Eh, with that?”

“Yeah. That weapon, even if it looks like that, the attack power is quite high. I'll teach you to use it.”

“Really!?”

　If you think carefully, Stick's ability to attack is pretty much at the top of one-handed swords that a novice can handle. Of course, it's not equal to my sword, but it has considerable power.

　If it can be used effectively, the melee attack should have sufficient effect.

　Besides, it's not a bad idea for Alicia to learn self-defense techniques.

“Um, the payment -“

“Ah, I'm sorry, I'll do it immediately.”

　While talking to each other, I finished paying with the card to the clerk who has been waiting patiently.

　Then, I decided to leave the store after buying leather armor for me and Alicia.

　We returned to the inn and had a meal.

　Fortunately, I was able to return within dinner time. It was an unexpected expense too.

　We returned to the room after taking a bath, and Alicia was unusually selfish.

“Hey, Yu-nee Yu-nee. Hurry up teach me about the sword!”

“Ehh, it is already dark, so why don't we start from tomorrow?”

“I don't' want to! I want to learn it as soon as possible!”

　I'll be taking into consideration a little because she is unusually selfish and motivated right now.

　Besides, it's been two weeks since I had a chat with Alicia and I'm very happy.

“Then, just one hour before the bath closed okay? Because if I do more than that, it will make me sweaty”

“Okay!”

　Alicia answered with a bright smile as if a sun came in.

　I stroked her head lightly and asked s.h.i.+nsan if I can borrow the backyard of the inn.

　There were only adventurers who often stay and it seems that many people go to the backyard to practice, so this was accepted easily.

“But it's dark, do you want to bring lanterns with you?”

“Ah, is it okay? I'll borrow a little”

　In this world, besides using oil they sometimes put magic stones in lanterns as a light source.

　The magic [Light] became a light source because of its less MP consumption, it's often used as a night light and became pocket money for a magician in order to extend the effect.

　A small stone casted with [light] was thrown into the borrowed lantern. It will keep glowing for six hours with this.

　In the backyard illuminated by [light], both I and Alicia was holding a sword.

　Of course, in order to not get hurt, Alicia kept the Stick in the sheath.

“Listen well, first thing is swinging. This is basic”

“Yes, Yu-nee master!”

“M, master!?”

　Oh, what is … this is burning. And also Moe.

“Ehem, then, first of all, don't swing it on the spot but step forward and swing. At that time, make sure your back follows your body properly”

　Although it may sound simple, “the legs remain” phenomenon occurs frequently when a beginner makes a swing.

　When swinging down the sword, it is very important to arrange your body so that you can go back to attack again.

　When Alicia had a match with Charon, because she is immature in “preparing a stance”, she ended up rolling on the ground.

“Like this?”

“There, your left foot is still remaining. You have to move it properly, like this”

　Alicia moved her right foot one step, but the left foot only made a half step, and her step widened.

　I showed her an example and taught her the basic principles of swinging a sword.

“There, this time use your back spine to put your leg forward”

“Auu……”

　Despite being clumsy, she was desperately swinging the sword and looked funny, I somehow feel like a father who goes out with his child to practice.

　After teaching her the basics for an hour, we took a bath together.

　This night was very fulfilling.
