Chapter 378: Black Heavenly Tiger Equipment

Editor Makoto

The day after Asurasu departed. After fully absorbing the magic stone, we prepared to leave the Alistair’s Mansion.

『I’m indebted to you for all your help.』

“No, it was a great experience for me too. I look forward to seeing you again.”

『You even had Fran’s armor improved, but are you sure you want to be paid like that?』

“I don’t mind. Looking at Fran’s reaction, I can tell that it is much more valuable than money.”

The other party was a divine grade blacksmith, and I had the opportunity to ask her to repair and refurbish me, and also modify Fran’s armor. Moreover, I’m sure she used a lot of valuable materials to complete said tasks.

In a normal course of events, it wouldn’t be surprising if it would cost hundreds of millions of golds, is it? However, Alistair said she didn’t want any rewards. She added that all of it would be worth it with just being able to analyze an interesting sword, which was me.

Still, I felt bad, but when I insisted on giving a reward, Alistair said,

“Okay, I’ll only take 1 million gold. It’s just a feeling. You know, I got the materials from the monsters. Also, I want a whole pot of curry to be left on the table.”

A million gold is quite a lot of money, but I figured it was a small price to pay for Alistair. Well, it’s just a hunch. Thus, I decided to leave a million gold and one of the largest curry pots on the table.

Fran insisted she’d leave all the money she had if we didn’t have to give Alistair the curry, but I convinced her that if we go to the town and get some spices we would be able to make more of it. Even a full-sized cauldron which people use to sell food filled to the brim with curry wouldn’t cost 10,000 gold.

When I tried to give her the recipe, she said she didn’t want it because she couldn’t cook at all. Apparently, the golem for cooking could only make dishes that have been programmed in advance.

“Thank you for the armor.”

“The original armor was a good one.”

“Yeah, it’s so cute and strong. I’m really glad I asked Alistair to help me out.”

Fran was wearing a series of black cat equipment that looked much different than before. No, the name had already changed, so it could be called new equipment. The shape of the armor had been drastically changed while retaining its appearance.

Regardless, its performance has changed even more tremendously than its external experience. First of all, the defense power of each piece increased by 50. Originally, the total defense power was 350, but now it has increased by 300 to a total of 650.

The durability had also been increased by 200, making it more sturdy. The effects are also enhanced in a modest way.

Moreover, the protection of the black cat has been enhanced with the protection of the black heavenly tiger.

The Black Cat’s Blessing was +10 for all stats while wearing the complete black cat equipment. Furthermore, there was a skill to nullify immediate death. Also, I think there was an effect that made it so it could only be equipped by the Black Cat Tribe.

However, the Black Heavenly Tiger equipment was even more intense. In addition to all stats +20, there was instant death nullification, thunder nullification, and enhanced stealth. Now, the Black Heavenly Tiger was almost exclusively for Fran.

Well, it’s a pretty cute design, so I don’t think Grandma Chiara would have said she’d equip it if she were still alive.

It’s basically black cat equipment. However, flares and lacy fluttering in the details added to the overall girliness of the dress.

A big change will be the black cat’s uniform. There is a large collar around the neck that looks like a false collar, and the shoulders and chest have ruffles. The lower half of the body became a completely fluttery skirt type of thing. Underneath it, it looks like she is wearing pants that are somewhere between a culotte and an underskirt.

After all, Aristair was a woman even if she acted like a man. It’s much more girly than the boyish one made by Gallus.

“It’s fluttering but I can still move.”

『Yeah, Fran is cute.』

“Yeah, I’m getting pretty good at this. It looks good on you. I’m sure you will stand out and become the envy of every man in the world. You know what I mean?”

“? We can’t stand out.”

“Why?”

“We will be found by monsters.”

『Fran, when Alistair says stand out, that’s not what she meant…』

Hm. Fran is not interested in cuteness at all. She is not interested in anything other than being easy to move and strong.

“Master…”

『I know. I know, but there is nothing I can do, right? I’m a man, and Fran isn’t interested in cute things at all!』

“Yes, but the material is good.”

Alistair had no makeup on, but others seem to care. She stared at me with jittery eyes.

『I- I knew it wasn’t a good idea to go on like this either. I’ll do my best.』

“……Well, I’ll just wait and see what happens.”

『So be it.』

“?”

Finally, Fran and Alistair give a firm handshake to each other.

“Thank you for everything.”

“Be careful. You haven’t mastered Master’s skill yet, have you?”

“Nn. We will train as we go.”

『I won’t be reckless for a while.』

Worst case scenario, we will have to use teleportation to get around the guy who looks like they could be trouble. Or, until my skills are stable enough to use them, I’ll be fighting mainly with my magic.

『Hey, when we want to see Alistair to do some maintenance, do we come here?』

“No, I travel around the world regularly. I will be moving out of this place in less than a month.”

Eh? So how do I get in touch with Alistair?

“I’m planning to move to the Gilbard continent after this. You guys are going to go back to Gilbard one of these days, right?”

“Hmm.”

『I’m going to attend the auction in the capital of the Kingdom of Kranzell.』

“Oh, that one huh? Is it in about two more weeks?”

“Yes, more or less.”

“If that’s the case, then I might cross over to Gilbard first. In case you’re wondering, they should be on the side of the town of Ulster in the southwestern part of the Kingdom of Berrios. If you are near me, I’ll get in touch with you. I can already sense Master’s magic, you know.”

It seems Alistair has the ability to detect the magical power of weapons even from a distance. If so, we might be able to meet easily.

『Let’s meet over there』

“Hmm”

“Ou, be careful.”
