Chapter 50 — Hard fang sword
"Hey, Kyle?"
"What's wrong nii-san?"
"Go to that weirdo"
"Huh, weirdo? Who are you talking about?"
"Gran. That crazy guy who says he's making things while traveling. You can help him with his work."
"No, no. I think nii-san should do it."
"Okay, listen to me Kyle. I'm saying this for your benefit. You should also have a job in your hands for the future. If you use magic to do work, you can learn about the job immediately while helping Gran's work. "
"That said, you are acting like you're running away, nii-san. I won't be fooled."
"I have something to do"
"That's a lie. There should be nothing else to do other than making weapons with Gran-san."
"I'm going to create more charcoal-making furnaces. They're very useful. I think that good-quality charcoal would sell well. Anyway, go. It's an order."
I've been sleep deprived for days and I'm at the limit.
Unfortunately, I can only leave Gran at the expense of one of my relatives.
I'm feeling sorry, but I'm going to escape while leaving my younger brother as a human sacrifice.
With that in mind, I fortified my weakened mind and crafted an excuse to send Kyle to Gran.
Good luck.
Don't die.
(TLN: .... human sacrifices...)
* * *
"Oh, is it completed?"
"Yes, thanks to Kyle's efforts, it was completed safely."
"My younger brother is lying on the ground and isn't moving at all ..."
"Kyle-kun was entrusted with the operation of the bellows, desu. He's in that state because he did his best, desu."
Bellows?
They're a special device.
It is a box-shaped device, and it must be used in order to send wind into the furnace.
Perhaps Kyle kept pushing and pulling the handles in and out to create air to keep the flames going under Gran-san's instructions while Gran-san was smithing.
(TLN: Bellows )
I can't help but think that I did something that is a little morally wrong.
Let's put it to sleep in the depths of my mind slowly over time.
"Well, okay? Let's leave that out. Can you show me the weapon?"
"I'm quite proud of this work. I'm so proud of it that I can rank this weapon high among the ones I've made so far."

Though I became reluctant to work all night, Gran-san didn't. He kept working all night on it.
While talking, Gran-san gently hands over the weapon that he has created.
What I received from his hand was a sword.
The so-called Western-type sword is a straight sword, shaped like a longsword.
Unless you heard that it was made from large boar fangs, you might not even realize that it was made from fangs.
Although it is a white sword, it has a slight luster and shines dimly.
The gloss on the surface gave the impression of a pearl.
"It's pretty light."
"That's right. It may be a little lighter than metal, but it's not too light and it's quite possible to beat an opponent in a duel with it."
"Won't it harden if mana is passed through it? If so, is it enough of a threat just by swinging it properly?"
"Even if it's not hardened by mana, it should be hard enough. It's enough to pass magical power as needed."
"Well? There's a similar little sword over there, but what's that?"
"This? This is a sword made from the fangs of a wild boar cub."
"Cub's fangs? Weren't there any other adult fangs left? Why did you bother to make such a thing?"
"I really want you to use this Ars-kun, desu."
"Oh? Is it because I'm a kid? But it's about the length of a dagger, so I think I'll have it on my person for self-defense."
"That's a good way to use it. However, the weapons made from the cubs of magical creatures are viable and special weapons. They can grow."
"Growth in weapons? What do you mean?"
"Fufu, you're surprised to hear it, it seems. This weapon is a weapon that grows by feeding on the magical power of the user. If it grows to the same size as the big sword I crafted this time, the stronger one will be the grown sword, desu."
"Hmm, there are such weapons? So, does it feed on mana?"
"Yes, but it doesn't grow so much if it only absorbs the magical power of one human being. It grows into a powerful weapon by being inherited from generation to generation, so to speak, it often becomes an heirloom sword."
I see.
Is it possible to create a powerful weapon because it absorbs the magical power of many people over generations?
Perhaps aristocrats have such things.
Is a hardened sword a very hard-to-break sword?
It's amazing, but am I the only one who thinks it looks subtle ...
"Thank you. It was my dream to get a weapon. I can't thank you enough."
"It wasn't a problem, desu. There aren't many opportunities for blacksmiths who travel around to use such equipment and materials abundantly as I have here. I was unexpectedly lucky to get to know Ars-kun, desu. "
"Well, I'd be happy if you could make more things here for a while. I mean, it seems that there are still some fangs left, and it would be helpful if you could make more. By the way, is this sword named?"
"It's customary to put the name of the creator on weapons with magical effects, desu. I'd like you to call this the hard fang sword Gran."
"Grand Fang Sword*. I will cherish it."
This is how I got my first weapon.
TLN: *In Japanese characters Gran and Grand aren't really that different. Well, in the way that it was used here.
