Chapter 179 - Let"s Root for Mino-kun


◎ Capital City Deer South, Wells University, Fifth Experiment Lot


「Hey, shouldn"t you try to defeat them quickly?」

「Emily . 『Break』 . Use it!」

「Mino-kun, do your best! Knight-sans also do your best!!」

Three different voices resounded . In order, they were Jinrai, Maberit, and Kazane .

And in front of them, Naoki, Lyle, and Emily were squaring off against the Stone Minotaur using the 3 meter magic sword and 3 knight-model『Knight-san (Crystallized spec)』Golems .


「Dammit, no matter how you look at it that one"s a 50-60 layer cla.s.s, isn"t it? Thisーー!?」

「Brother, no complaining . Master is watching . 」

「Ah, those knight models are strong, or rather, they"re like Aneki . I can"t attack them . 」


Rather than squaring off, it felt more like Naoki and the others were fleeing with all their might while raising agonized cries .

First of all, in addition to the Stone Minotaur opponent"s large build and superhuman strength, the weight reduction effect when lifting the 3 meter magic sword was very powerful . Only having to exert power when swinging down was excellent . As might be expected, it was too dangerous to use against Naoki and the others, but with the Stone Minotaur"s strength it was possible to cut enemies into tiny pieces, as if it was mincing food .

And then there were the three Knight-san knight-model Golems surrounding the Stone Minotaur that hadn"t been used for a truly long time .

Following Kimberly"s advice, those Knight-sans were made with Kazane"s appearance and copied her movements . Although Pa.s.sive Skills like『Nimble』and『Warrior"s Memory』weren"t usable, their movements imitated the Level 31 Kazane, so their ability was naturally higher than before . In addition, they had been Crystallized, which improved their defense .

Their swords and shields were originally made of soil, but they had also been transformed into splendid crystal swords and shields with the power of Crystallization . They were harder than poor quality weapons and armor, so simply selling them seemed like it would be profitable .

That Mino-kun Corps was a very hard fight for Naoki and the others . If they tried to engage the Stone Minotaur in close combat, the Knight-sans would interfere to prevent their attacks, and Naoki and Emily"s long range attacks did practically no damage to the Stone Minotaur . In addition, the Knight-sans were also st.u.r.dy, and they had to worry about the Stone Minotaur"s attacks at the same time, so they also couldn"t do much damage to them .

The problem was that, unlike the battle at Blue Rifon Fort, the Stone Minotaur wasn"t just making full use of its large build to attack, but was also making coordinated movements . The Mino-kun Corps linked with Kazane"s『Information Link』didn"t show any weak spots that could be attacked .

Then, although Lyle managed to bring down one Knight-san, he was simultaneously sent flying by the broad side of the 3 meter magic sword, Naoki was surrounded by 2 Knight-sans, and the 3 meter magic sword was thrust before Emily; the match was decided .


「「「We lost . 」」」


It was an overwhelming defeat .

From Jinrai"s facial expression, it looked like he expected that, but Maberit had a sour expression . That was because she believed the main cause of their defeat was Emily"s lack of attack power .

(I see . That"s why she needs the dragonfang steel arrows . )

If she had the arrows that were requested yesterday, which were a combination of the Earth Core Dragon"s fangs and Magic Steel, the result of this battle may have been different .

Although from the start, Naoki"s party only tended to be weak against monsters with high defense, not normal monsters . In particular, Emily specialized at using arrows loaded with Wind magic, which was weak against mineral types but could cause considerable damage to biological types . Emily was useless in this Stone Minotaur sequel battle, just like at Blue Rifon Fort, but this was largely a problem of compatibility . Although that wouldn"t be a good enough excuse for her master .

Furthermore, the main cause of their defeat this time was Naoki, who had been attacking the Stone Minotaur remotely instead of attacking the Knight-sans that resembled his sister . Naoki wanted to hug them rather than fight; he was such a love-and-peace man .


And with that concluded, the group was now resting at the university"s outdoor Fifth Experiment Lot where Kazane had made a Cottage yesterday .

Jinrai had finally returned . All party members had gone to the hospital to pick him up, and the first thing Jinrai wanted for his return celebration was a match against the Stone Minotaur . Moreover, Kazane was going to continue discussing the Cottage today, there was a lot of soil there that could be used to make a Stone Minotaur, and since Maberit was also Jinrai"s acquaintance, they could ask her to borrow this place, so it was chosen for Jinrai"s match .

Then the Jinrai vs Stone Minotaur battle had begun, and although it wasn"t a fierce enough contest for Jinrai to muster all his strength, Lyle and the others saw it as a heroic one-on-one battle .  

While avoiding the 3 meter magic sword with paper-thin margins, Jinrai precisely damaged the joints that were the weak points of Golem types . While watching, Kazane groaned (After all, the brute force approach has a hard time against skilled human opponents) .

In the end, Jinrai destroyed the Stone Minotaur"s limbs and made moving impossible before the 10 minute operation time limit, then hoped Kazane would make another Stone Minotaur so that he could watch his grandchildren battle it .

Because of the high cost of the Stone Minotaur, Kazane"s magic alone could only summon one, but with the Crimson Saint Coffin and Magic Acc.u.mulator, she had enough to make two more . Although she mumbled complaints, she made another one and made it fight . In addition, she made Knight-sans to fight together with it because it lost to Jinrai quite easily, but it seemed it had an effect beyond what she had imagined . Mainly against Naoki .


And as Jinrai subsequently started training the others, Kazane judged it was the right time and started clinging to Maberit . How hard was she? Black Diamond, Kazane so called Maberit in her mind .

Naoki noticed that situation and cried「Ahーーーー!」but received a blow from Jinrai and collapsed due to the gap created . Yumika currently wasn"t there . She said she would come in the afternoon after meeting with Cindy at the Barnes dojo .


「Since your magic power is lacking . 」

「That"s right . 」


Maberit asked for confirmation, and Kazane so replied with a straight face . Kazane was a girl who would never miss an opportunity . Since she was a girl who was faithful to her desires . Maberit sighed after that response and decided to continue talking .

「Well, fine . First of all, I"ve mostly finished looking over the blueprint and Cottage from yesterday . 」

「You work fast . As expected, people with good muscles are different . 」

Kazane was rubbing against her . Firm . But that was good . If she was seen from a distance, she would look like a koala clinging to a tree .

「It"s unbelievable that everything is made of soil and rock . It can only be seen as a type of alchemy . 」

(Ah, it might be so)

Properly speaking, what Kazane learned and used as a Skill was called magic, and the a.n.a.lyzed technique formulas that made it usable by human beings was alchemy .

「First of all, I"ll weed out the problem areas and write them down to hand over later . 」

「Thanks . 」

Kazane was in good humor . But Maberit"s expression didn"t look very good . Kazane noticed and asked about it .

「Nn, did something happen?」

「Honestly speaking, I"m regretting so freely taking this on . 」

Kazane tilted her head after that reply .

「From your appearance it seems you don"t understand after all . I wish I could excavate the contents of my mind and directly show you the chaos you"ve caused, but first of all, I"ve imposed a gag order on my pupils about everything on the blueprint . 」

「???」

Kazane was increasingly unable to read the intention of her talk . But Maberit didn"t pay that any mind and continued speaking .

「At any rate, even just the amount of new technologies included in it would be a two digit number if they were counted . That house is, in a sense, the grand sum of human technology . The innumerable improvements that could be made when I think about the details makes me feel like I"ve been shown something truly outrageous . 」

Certainly, Kazane"s Cottage was a structure that consolidated the common sense of Kazane"s world . In addition, it wasn"t just her reproduction of the technology of her own world, but was also the joining together of the Window"s default design patterns, and the optimization and balancing from the Window"s functions crystallized into a kind of super technology . In a sense, it was an even more serious problem than the one-of-kind item Muscle Clay, but naturally Kazane wasn"t an architect and only had the knowledge of an ordinary high school student, so she didn"t understand its value .

「I should be happy about it, but honestly, it"s giving me a headache . Right now me and my pupils are gathering the doc.u.ments for patent applications . 」

(So that is also in this country? Patent application . . . . . . )

According to what Kazane had previously heard, it seemed there was a Patent Guild that was like a subordinate organization of the Merchants Guild .

「It seems you have no intentions of concealing anything, but letting it all be used unchecked seems like it would cause problems . I"ll only need your name to register . Okay?」

「Uh . . . . uh huh . 」

Maberit"s tone seemed like she would brook no argument, and Kazane nodded . She further rubbed against her . Those black muscles gave power to Kazane"s anxious mind .

「I"ll do the detailed work, but we"ll need to negotiate the usage of the technology and make a formal contract later . 」

「Troublesome . Maberit-san can decide everything?」

「This is too weighty for me to decide alone!」

「Ugu」

She was scolded .

Maberit held her head at Kazane"s situation . The contents were too weighty for her to use as she pleased . Causing trouble, just like a child that wanted to play with a toy however she pleased . No matter how much money she might want to make off it, she could probably get it .

But Maberit"s ability to restrain herself like an adult was probably due to her self-control . If she wasn"t acquainted with Mefirus, or if she wasn"t a long-lived species and instead thought like a normal human, she might have thrown away her pride and bit at the temptation of the large amount of money in front of her . In fact, Maberit was having difficulty with warning her pupils .

「Anyway, that"s what I"m asking of you . 」

「Yeah . Understood . We"ll be coming back here one time after our quest is finished, so I"ll deal with any contracts or the like then . 」

Maberit showed a relieved smile after Kazane agreed . It seemed she could took a breather for now after finishing with the troublesome matters .

「You should understand the value of what you possess a little better . 」

Perhaps her mind was finally calm enough for her to advise her like that . There was also the matter with the Tuure Kingdom . The truth of that remark made Kazane"s ears burn .

「Also, about the dragonfang steel arrows from yesterday . Using all the resources available inside the university, about 20 can be finished by the day after tomorrow . You brought around 200 Earth Core Dragon fangs, so can I hand over the rest when you stop by again?」

「Yeah . No problem . 」

The dragonfang steel arrows had arrowheads made with dragon fangs and shafts made of Magic Steel, which meant the arrows were clad with Dragon Spirit while the function of loading spells that was the original purpose of the magic bow was also preserved . It couldn"t be obtained at ordinary arms shops, so it could only be made by request from a place that had the appropriate manufacturing technology .

「But that"s quite extravagant . There"s a lot of demand for Earth Core Dragon fangs . 」

「Life is the most important . Backline support really is necessary, so it would be best to increase that firepower . They"re materials we obtained ourselves, so we"ll use them as we like . 」
