“Chapter 104: Level Up! 2”

– Why!!?? (L/Y)

Lemy and Yamy were just as shocked as Letty and Feria.

Of course they would be. We worked so hard for it. And I just threw it into the furnace without even needing to test it.

– Ah, sorry. You might be wondering why I did that. I was trying to see if the instructions worked.

– What? (Lemy)

– You wanted to confirm that you could make a spear by following those steps, right? (Yamy)

– Yes. But also, I told Azaasha-sama that I would make a spear even stronger than the Trident of Darkness, not the same one.

It has to be strong enough to beat Raigoh’s sword.

– Ah, that’s what it was. You definitely surprised us. (Letty)

– MAYBE SAY SOMETHING BEFOREHAND, YOU IMBECILE (Feria)

Letty and Feria probably realized at some point that that wasn’t the demonic spear we needed.

It looked like the trident, but it wasn’t the trident.

The reason is simple. I’m not Level VII. It doesn’t matter how hard I try, this world dictates that a Level VI blacksmith like me can’t properly forge it.

– … You wanted to gain experience. (Letty)

If I want to make a spear better than the trident, I’d have to be Level VIII.

And the only way to gain experience is through trial and error.

Even when I forged Silver along with Akane I had to fail multiple times to get to the final result. This is no different.

– Vice-pres, I need you to fetch me this ingredient. Ask Mary to help you look for it.

– You’re using me to run your errands? Did the fire burn your brain?

Feria’s fist stopped mid-air.

– *Sigh* Fine. I can’t really help in any other way.

She sighed after seeing what I wrote on the note and headed towards Mary.

– What did you ask for? (Letty)

I looked once again at the fake trident burning on the fire.
