Chapter 213.1 - The Effect of Training 2

Dammiiit Swordsman vocation isn't just for show, eh

I lost. Got beat up so thoroughly. Did he by chance have some sort of grudge against me? I don't remember ever doing something cruel to Ueda though.

My shadow could use the flying-sword style with Blackhair Bind. I could easily win against a goma, but could I afford to block or dodge against someone with Swordsman vocation? I mean, it felt as if the other party had seen through my moves.

Rather, it feels like there's an insurmountable wall between me and the vanguard job like a swordsman.

If I had to fight Ueda for real, I would definitely avoid a frontal clash. Instead, I would use poison, trap, or Rems to beat him up.

That is how a shaman is supposed to fight after all. I wasn't born to wield the sword.

I guess I really have no talent for swords, I guess I have to keep sword training to a minimum.

Well then, seeing that martial arts training barely had any effect on me, now let's see what the real me would do at the entrance workshop after some training with everyone.

What are you doing, Himeno-san? Your hand has stopped moving!T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

So-Sorry M-My hands kinda itchy

Sorry about that, but you have to find a way to prevent your hand from feeling itchy yourself.

Bu-But

Okay, here you go, this ointment should do the job.

As the only one who had learnt Simple Alchemy Formation among the batch of new employees, Himeno-san was left with the simple job of smelting the ore; the light ore mined by Rems in the desert area.

Having said that, sorting with alchemy was a simple job since she only had to separate the sand and other sediments from the ore. Direct manipulation of the component was impossible with elemental alchemy. Ergo, if the difference between the components could be seen with the naked eye, it was possible to transform and separate them.

In addition, removing impurities in this way, before the material was used by the Sage Takanashi for advanced alchemy, would make a better quality finished product. That said, Himeno-san's job was really important.

Next was Shimokawa-kun who was struggling with his bootleg potion project.

Shimokawa-ku~n, how's the situation on your side~?

Geh, Momokawa

Whats with that blatant displeasure? I just asked about your progress. Did you happen to slack off?

My side is fine, don't worry about it.

Is that so~? Is it just my imagination that the mixture seems to be the same as yesterday?

Eh?

Shimokawa-kun, if you want to lie, you should stick through until the end.

Well, not that it would deceive me since I had already memorized the combination ratio and the prototype of the raw materials.

Shouldn't you try different combinations this time?

B-But still, figuring out the exact measurements of the ingredients is really taxing you see. Ain't something you can do for hours.

Surely, alchemy is mentally taxing.

Well do your best, you just need a bit more Shimokawa. Though you look like you're about to die, please do that after youve completed your research.

Momokawa~

Ah, Randou-san.

Randou-san called out to me just when I was thinking about the situation in the next post.

I've too much free time~

Said Randou-san as she slumped on top of piles of white pelt.

Though her pose allowed me to see her panties had she worn her school uniform, she was, unfortunately, wearing her jersey in the workshop. Alas, even the jersey wasn't enough to hide her sexy curves.

Sorry, the new batch of materials will arrive soon

I want it faste~r.

All right, my bad for that. I'll contact the merchant to deliver it as fast as possible.

Geez, they can actually take their time though.

Though I had no idea what she really wanted, I had no choice but to offer my apologies since it was my fault that she ended up having too much free time.

Randou-san's job was, naturally, purifying light iron using Iron Ore Alchemy Formation.

The product of her job was fine material that could be used to upgrade our weapon. As against a simple plate created using just iron, the one made with iron imbued with magical power was much more powerful and durable. Thus, we, naturally, needed light iron that was imbued with magical power to create an enchanted weapon.

As such, a part of Randou-san's research room was filled with mined light iron and junk weapons we got from humanoid monsters such as werewolves or govus.

Alas, Randou-san used up her stock of light ore pretty quickly.

Around her were heaps of light iron material that was waiting to be delivered to the manufacturer.

In terms of job speed, Randou-san is really fast.

Ain't this pretty normal?

If this was the normal speed, then Takanashi wasn't working at all.

My bad, I'll think about your next job.

Ka~y, gimme a call if you need my help.

I felt a sense of defeat upon listening to her languid voice. She was simply too talented in this line of job.

Rather, shouldn't I just appoint her as the maker of our equipment?

No, let's not forget that she lacked the imagination to do that, she could struggle to no end if I entrusted her that job. There must be a more suitable job for her.

Well, let's stow this matter for later.

How's the situation on Class Rep's side?

Well, it took me three days to understand this ability of mine.
