Chapter 262: Equipment of the Aligerous Tribe

The Aligerous Tribe were no different from humans besides their wings. There were some differences in skeletal and muscular structure so their wings could move, but their internal organs were practically identical. However, the Aligerous Tribe made use of this trait, and many of their warriors used bows in the sky. Dealing attacks one-sidedly at the enemies was their style of fighting.

However, that would be an impediment when exploring the dungeon. The Sky Island dungeon was a labyrinth dungeon. If the ceiling height of the labyrinth was 5 meters and its width was 4 meters, it would be a bit too narrow to use bows in the sky. Inexperienced with close combat, the Aligerious Tribe had never used swords and shields.

「Might I recommend spears? Even if you aren’t used to close combat, you might be able to handle that distance.」

I arranged spears in front of the young Aligerous warriors before me, and, while they weren’t magic spears, they were just as good. I added in swords, shields, maces, and battle axes so they could choose which they liked.

The Aligerous Tribe were cheery as they each picked up the weapon they liked.

Mixed in among the male warriors was a lone girl. The girl who introduced herself as Berkut had long brown hair all bunched up behind her. She was a beautiful girl with brown eyes and dignified features.Reêad latest novels at noov/e/l/bin(.)com

「Takumi-dono, which weapon should I choose?」

「Hmm, if you choose a weapon you don’t like, you wouldn’t get into training.」

For some reason, unlike the other Aligerous Warriors, Berkut-san calls me by my given name. Well, it’s not like she couldn’t so I let it go, but it felt like Bagworm-kun was glaring at me.

This time, I think we will mainly train with weapons other than the Aligerous’ prided bows. That’s why they’ll practice holding swords and spears.

All but one seemed to have chosen the spear I had recommended. Did that person choose the sword and shield because I recommended the spear? Well, it’s our bagworm buddy, Bart-kun.

「Then for starters, copy me okay!」

Maria began demonstrating forms with a spear in hand together with the Aligerous warriors who chose the spear. The men were also happy to receive training from Maria, a cheerful, beautiful woman.

After the light of the magic circle vanished, nine 2m 50cm long spears were completed.

「Okay, just in case, maybe I should give the strength-type enchantments as a freebie.」

The spears were average shaped spears, but compared to those sold in town, they were exceptionally made.

「Takumi-sama, will we make bows?」

「Hmm, what to do...... I want to give them a bow considering their original battle style, but they wouldn’t be able to carry a spear and sword together with the bow, right?」

「Ah yes, the Aligerous Tribe have wings too, so they wouldn’t be able to carry a bow and a quiver on their back. Hmm.」

There might be a few situations where they can fight by shooting arrows from the sky, but...... maybe I’ll try thinking of a bit of a gimmick.

「Laeva, let’s try devising a bow into the left bracer.」

「Ooh! That sounds interesting.」

We decided to alter the left bracer which holds the shield into a magic item with a bow inserted into it.

By the time I finished the left bracers with a crossbow-deploying magic item inserted into it, and simple right bracer, Laeva completed the Light Wyvern Leather Armor. She works extremely fast now too.

Afterwards, Laeva and I made everyone’s boots, and the Aligerous Tribe’s equipment was complete.

Now then, should we give these to the Aligerous Tribe as a present and power level them until they have the strength to search for the remnants of the old Sydnia?
