The Spear’s Material Is……
“Gahah!”
I mow down several tens of trees and finally collapse onto the ground. Shit. How powerful. My body bloody ended up in tatters with the single blow just now. Gehoh gehoh! My innards got messed up somewhere as well.
『Rascal! Is that all your seriousness amounts to!』
A roar that rumbles the atmosphere can be heard. A bolt of lightning falls above me at the same time as that voice. Shit! I don’t even have the time to rest! I jump back from that spot right away. It crashes on the ground and lets out a blinding light. That’s close……eh, no good!!!
『Ora!』
It’s a single strike that carries a weight that’s incomparable to the lightning before. I jumped from that spot and dodged it, but I was blown away by the shockwave of it crashing onto the ground. Guu. As I thought, it’s quite difficult to get material from this person…….

“U〜n, is there not any good material〜”
A week passed since the day the victory celebration party ended, and we talked about hereafter. In this one week, I’ve been preparing for the trip to the domain. I went home and explained to everybody that it’s decided that I’m going as well, and it ended up with everybody coming along.
Although I say domain, it’s originally the Regalia Empire’s territory. I wanted them to stay behind just in case something were to happen, but well, there’s no way they’ll change their mind.
Priscilla, who started working at the Light Dragon Tavern, was slightly lost on what to do, but Hilde-san, who came right at that time, decided to start a branch store at the domain and said she’ll make Priscilla the branch store manager.
Priscilla naturally refused, but Hilde-san ended up steamrolling her opposition, saying that it’s fine since she’ll occasionally go as well. Well, it’ll take just an instant if Hilde-san dragonifies after all.
‘If that’s that case then’, Priscilla says and accepts being the branch manager as well. Priscilla will probably be up to the task. She’s a girl who can do her best at anything. It seems Mei-chan will be helping out as well after all.
After that, I asked Dargris and the others who are in the academy whether I can have them to come. They were extremely concerned about me the moment we met for the first time in a long while though.
The responses of Dargris and the others varied. The ones who said okay right away were, Ely, Shizuku, and Birdon. Dargris and Rene say they’d like me to wait since they have to talk to Alma, who has stayed behind at the house. That’s a given. If they say they’ll go without discussing, Dargris will again be…….
Amongst everybody, the ones who wracked their brain the most on what to do were Cait and Emma. But it’s inevitable. They’re both the son and daughter of nobles. They’re in a position where they can’t easily say, ‘Yes, I’ll go’.
The two of them nod when I tell them they can think about it since the duration is one month. I want to have them come along if possible, but I can’t invite them forcefully. Well, I have a feeling that they’ll probably get approval though.
After that, I went around to give my greetings at various places because of the departure. I have to go and greet Rabi-san, who’s at the Adventurers Guild and has become exclusive to me, as well after all.
I managed to encounter Rabi-san right away and when I talk to her about it
“I got it! I will prepare as well!”
she says while flapping her rabbit ears. ‘Prepare for what?’, I thought, but she ended up going to the back right away. Well, I guess it’s fine since I managed to convey what I can. I left the Adventurers Guild as it is.
The other place I went to give my greetings was, the Blossom Garden’s store manager, Madam Blossom’s place. I actually didn’t want to go, but I was pressured by Alexia and the others and ended up going. I’m just bad with that space…….
I talk about leaving the Royal Capital to Madam Blossom, and although he was disappointed
“If that’s the caseeee〜, I’ll alsooooo, open a branch store!”
he said. He then says that there’s somebody he’s raising as his apprentice, so he’ll bring them over. ……I have an extremely bad feeling. And then that hunch ended up hitting the mark.
“The child that I’ve been raising, Rose-channn!”
“Oh my! Isn’t it the Hero-chan! My name is Rose! Nice to meet youun!”
Muscles that rivals Madam Blossom showed up. ……no more. I don’t want it, but if Alexia, the magistrate, gives her approval then the deal is sealed. I shall try not to go as far as possible.
With such things happening as well, I prepared for this one week, but a problem arose over here. That problem is
“There’s no durable spear……”
there’s no spear that can withstand my usage. I used various spears because Rolgar was sliced by Tigris, but none of the spears can fully withstand it when I use Magic Endowment and they end up breaking.
The only that held was the spear I stol……I borrowed from the Hero. However, that too ended up breaking when I battled the Heroes. I tried various spears after that as well, but every single one of them was no good.
“Haa, what should I do……”
“What’s bothering you?”
As I’m sitting in the living room’s chair and pondering about the spear, Alexia showed up. It’s not something to hide, so I talk about the spear and
“U〜n, that’s tough. Something that can withstand Lei’s Magic Power huh. A weapon that can withstand that amount of Magic Power doesn’t come by easily〜”
As I thought, Alexia can’t come up with anything either huh〜. As both of us are mumbling, ‘un un‘, in that manner
“Lei-kun, I’m coming in, eh, what’s wrong? Both of you are tearing your hairs out together”
Hilde-san entered. I told Hilde-san and the others that they come in whenever they like, so there are also times that they come in like this.
It seems she came to talk to Priscilla about the opening of the branch store at the domain today. Priscilla has currently gone shopping with Mei-chan and the others, so I have to have her wait for a bit.
That’s right! If it’s Hilde-san, who has lived for many years, then she might come up with a good idea. I, who thought that, consult Hilde-san about the spear. Thereupon
“If that’s the case, there’s a good material, you know”
Hilde answered immediately. Seriously!? However, her answer was something absurd. As for why, it’s because
“Why do I have to give my fang to a rascal”
Currently, Alexia and me, and Priscilla and Eclat, who returned, and Hilde, came to the Light Dragon Tavern. That’s right, what Hilde-san suggested was, ‘how about making a spear from an Attribute Lord’s fang?’.
And then, that is why I came to Levine-san, who’s compatible with the Lightning Magic that I often use. Well, the outcome was exactly as I had expected; I was rejected. As I thought, it’s impossible huh. I thought, and Eclat goes to Levine-san’s side
“Kyururu?”
and tilts her head adorably. Levine, who saw that
“It, it can’t be helped. I guess I’ll listen to it if it’s Eclat-chan’s request. It’s just that I have a condition. Show me your capability, and I shall hand it to you if I deem that it’s fine for me to hand it to you”
Levine-san says. It’s pretty much thanks to Eclat, but the possibility to somehow get it emerged. Through showing my capability to Levine-san.
Like this, with Levine-san, the Lightning Dragon’s fang at stake, it’s decided that I’ll fight Levine-san.
