Novel Full Chapter 430 Time To Make New Weapons
—–
It’s not as if I don’t want to play either, I REALLY do! But we need to put some priorities now, sadly. I’ll make sure to play a lot of next week to compensate. I have a lot of plans. I want to explore the nearby Luminous Kingdom, go to the Dwarven Mountains where there are Dragon Monsters, and try to find the guy that stole Titania’s sword.
The Death Generals seem to be laying low for now, so let’s take this as an advantage to get this done here. I wouldn’t want to get surprised when Phantasmos shows up to eat my soul either! And to protect my family here as well, and perhaps even Earth as a whole… I need to grow stronger, as cringy as that sounds.
“Huh, so a lot happened while I wasn’t watching!” Rita complained. “Not fair…”
We were currently outside our house, we managed to sneak using my vines. I used them to grab both of them from the second floor window and stealthily bring them down without waking up anybody. We also made sure with the Great Spirit to leave “Protection Charms” that send away Hollows, so no pesky monster gets inside the house while we’re off.
“Well yeah, if it wasn’t thanks to Blackie and Mark distracting it, I wouldn’t had been able to come out with a quick solution though.” I sighed. “You two were really brave, especially you Mark, you didn’t really had any power and still confronted that thing! Even if you got smacked afterwards, that was very brave!”
“A-Ahahah… Now that you remind me, I was quite pathetic… I just couldn’t stand and watch though, I wanted to do something, even if insignificant.” He sighed.
“And that’s a good thing!” Said the Great Spirit.
“Ahh, this is the Spirit thing!” Rita said. She ate the magical lemon pie, so she could see magical beings now.
“Who are you calling freaking “spirit thing”, girl?!” The Great Spirit got angrier. “If it wasn’t for my powers you wouldn’t even be standing here!”
“Yeah, yeah, we are sorry.” I said. “So anyways…”
I took out the shovel I had transformed. This shovel was actually used to just take out the poop from the cows… But now it became a D Rank Magic Weapon, its appearance changed now, it got all really clean out of the blue, and gained a tiny green jewel on the handle. It was shiny, yet still looked rather simplistic.
“That’s your weapon?! Seriously, you made a… Ugh.” Rita facepalmed. “I guess you never change.”
“Hey this is the only thing we had available!” I complained. “I used a D Rank Potential Cube, those we usually get after defeating a big boss.”
“Ooh, those? I’ve got tons myself as well!” Rita said. ．
“I remember you said you heard a voice when you imbued the cube into the weapon?” Wondered Mark.
“Yeah, it was… soothing, like the voice of a gorgeous woman.” I said while imagining it. “I don’t exactly know where it came from though, but it felt like a “system prompt” without any system-like imagery thing, it was all inside of my head.”
“I see, so you’re just going nuts.” Rita said.
“It is true! Come on!” I sighed.
“Hahaha, I think she’s just joking.” Mark said. “Anyways, this is amazing, this means we could bring enchantment items from the other world and make new weapons easily using them! But… Wouldn’t a gun in here be more effective?”
“A gun! Yeah, but the problem is how do we get them.” Sighed Rita. “This is no USA, so getting ourselves an actual gun is WAY harder.”
Firearms laws in Canada had been changing a lot the last ten years, from becoming easily available to almost impossible to get, to then being easy again… I remember people usually imported firearms from USA too. But we can’t really do that as normal citizens.
“We could try getting a license, but we’re currently in the countryside, so let’s make do with what we have right now.” I said.
“Yeah, you’re right.” Rita sighed. “I guess I’ll have to use this one at the end.”
Rita suddenly pulled out a small firearm from her pocket.
“EH?!”
Mark and I were shocked.
“Where… what the heck Rita?! I thought you were complaining we couldn’t get one?” I wondered.
“Yeah because this is the gun of my husband!” Sighed Rita. “He gave it to me saying I needed protection.”
“Right, your husband…” I sighed, quickly remembering her husband used to be a rather… dangerous thug in his younger years.
“It’s a gun he kept for years since he was young, I think its illegal though.” She said.
“Rita that doesn’t really matter at this point…” I sighed, facepalming.
“S-She’s been going with a little gun all this time?” Mark felt slightly surprised.
“Ahahaha, sorry, sorry! It only has like five bullets at most. I wonder if we could enchant it so it fires bullets made of mana or something.” Rita wondered.
“We’ll see.” I nodded. “So anyways Mark, what weapon do you want?”
I wanted to give both of them some magic weapons so they could be prepared for anything.
“Something easy to wield that is not as weird as a random hoe. A shovel… well you’ve got to your inventory to hide it, but not me. So I brought this large hunting knife I bought.” He pulled out a long, twenty-centimeter-long hunting knife, it was really sharp and shiny, so that’ll do. It had a small sheath he had wrapped around his waist and hidden beneath his jacket.
“Sounds good then! Let’s see…” I quickly took out two D-Rank Potential Cubes from my Inventory, both costed 100 MP each to retrieve, so they were expensive!
Both of them put the weapons over the grass and then…
FLUOSH!
Both cubes began glowing brightly as they completely merged with the weapons without any problems. And then, I heard the voice once more…
