My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

73 – After Battle (1)

The border between the Aphelice Empire and the Tyrpe Kingdom.

Armenian Mountain is in charge of one axis of the long border.

According to the agreement between the two countries, it belongs to the Tyrpe Kingdom, but…

It is also a mountain that is considered a kind of neutral area in the midst of complex interests.

Before the demon war settled on the continent.

There have been countless wars between humans over a long period of time, and it was the same with Apelliche and Tirpe.

Armenian Mountain was also a trace of the history of countless wars.

Thanks to this, it is often difficult for ordinary people to find slash-and-burn villages located on Mount Armen.

Those who live in groups of three, three, five, in a remote and deep place.

They were far more often than not counted as the population of Tirpe, and there were often slash-and-burn people living on their own without any interaction.

Freedom with no special responsibilities or rights was the biggest reason why this mountain was considered a neutral area.

One of these slash-and-burn villages in the Armenian Mountains.

It’s embarrassing to even call it a village, but there are three huts anyway, and the warmth of people remains.

The man entered his little cabin with a tattered newspaper in his hand.

The creaking of the door and the battered cladding of the boards gave an indication of how old the house was.

“… … .”

He sat down in a chair with a thud.

The man opened the newspaper he had found hard at the bottom of the mountain today.

In the newspaper, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a name…

To be precise, the name of the family was hung across the front door.

＜Sacher Phillip Punishes the Demon Alliance＞

Sacher Phillip, an undergraduate at the Afelice Imperial Academy, is a hot topic for making a big contribution in the recent battle against the lycanthrope/vampire alliance.

A few days ago, the Empire announced the possibility of a new invasion by the demons, the double gate.

Lycanthropes and Vampires, a wicked mid-level demon clan, were gathered at the double gate that occurred in the southern part of the empire.

In an earlier announcement, the royal family of Apellice revealed that they had secretly formed a vampire killing party, including Ludgale Liquid.

Also, the union of lycanthropes and vampires was a completely unexpected trap of the demons, and he admitted that he was acutely aware of the empire’s mistakes that were not detailed in this area.

…

In this situation, Sacher Phillip, an alchemy student of the Empire, introduced a super-large golem called the [Giant Reaper] and led an extremely unfavorable and fierce battle to victory.

The flagship golem [Vita Taker], this new golem is a defensive golem that boasts an enormous size and a hard body that is impenetrable.

It boasts a defense that does not easily break even in the attack of the lycanthrope.

In particular, during the battle with the Asmodian Alliance, it was revealed that Sachere Philip’s magical sword [Pahe’s Sword] was cast through this scythe, surprising all alchemists and warriors on the continent.

Marquis Neculie Lokfilia, an authority on golems and a high-ranking alchemist in Tyrpe, praised Sacher Philip’s new invention, saying, “Of all the golems I’ve made, there is only one golem that can match it.”

…

On the other hand, Sacher Philip is the most promising prospect in the alchemy world, and has made a name for himself on the continent by winning the ＜Imperial Academy Coliseum＞ and co-developing [Anti-Venom].

“… … .”

The man quietly put the newspaper down on the table.

It was a long paper, but well worth reading.

He murmured, fiddling with the handle of the chair he was sitting on.

“Sacher… Sacher Philip… .”

Philip family.

It was a family of close friends who had long been friends on the battlefield.

9 years… It’s been about 10 years.

I once entrusted a boy I cared for to a close friend.

A close friend’s request for a child of about 10 years old,

Because the situation of the boy who needed a new home was intertwined.

The boy whom I cherished like a son and taught with passion…

In a new place like this.

He spread his hidden wings wide and took off.

The man was bewildered, but the boy standing tall alone was proud.

“Sacher… You have a good name.”

The man who had been reciting quietly shook his head with a wry smile.

A boy who is adopted by the Philip family and given a new name, Sacher.

It’s a nice name, but…

I also thought that it was a strange name, very similar to the child’s fate.

smart tock-

It was then.

There was a knock on the door of the cabin, which was filled with silence.

Few people live in this slash-and-burn village.

When the man first came here, there were quite a few slash-and-burn farmers, but now all of them have disappeared or have settled down and migrated.

Three houses remain.

Only a man and an old man live there.

The man opened the door, thinking that the old man next door had come to ask for water again.

And when I opened the door, I saw…

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a name in a newspaper.

They were familiar faces.

“Oh, Cloudy! You really are alive… !!”

“How are you, President of the Academy… .”

Two middle-aged faces filled with emotion came into view.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

James, the president of the Afelice Society, who was once his assistant shooter.

Paul Stern, the president of the Tirpe Society, who still calls himself the president of the society.

A lot of years have passed, but they were junior alchemists who believed in themselves more than anyone else and followed them.

The man who stood at the end of the continent’s hope.

The man who became every alchemist’s aspiration.

Claudy Lajour greeted them with a wry smile.

“A long time. James, Paul.”

Now the demons are invading the continent again through a new gate called the ‘double gate’.

The glories of the past and the hidden truths were intertwined and constantly swirling.

* * *

“bout… !!”

“oh. This one was really good. Try to relive that feeling.”

At my point, Shunika corrected her greatsword again.

And the aura of blue magic rising from her sword.

One of the magic swords that must be mastered as a knight is the [Sword of Momentum].

As a sophomore, the magic sword that she can use perfectly right now is the [Pafe’s Sword].

After exploring the Red Wolf Gate…

When she said she wanted to become stronger by learning other magical swords, I was helping her with her training.

It’s vacation anyway, so there’s still time left, and the [Sword of Momentum] is the magic sword I use the most.

“Taaa… !!”

Shunica jumped in with confidence, but…

Her sword flicked lightly with a sound.

It was because my sword flowed her sword as smoothly as water.

In a slightly futile situation, Shunika’s face was stained with disappointment.

“Huh… .”

“are you okay?”

I handed her a little lost balance.

Schunika took my hand with a rabbit-like expression.

“huh. But why is it so easily accepted? I think I gave it a lot of strength… .”

“The sword of momentum is not a magic sword that is created with power. The purity and cohesion of magical power is more important. The ones made by Schnika are still uneasy and light, so they spill easily. Maybe if I had just rushed at it with my strength, I wouldn’t have let it go so easily?”

“difficult… .”

Certainly, Schnika had a weak side in the details of mana handling.

The [Sword of Fifth] also requires mana handling, but compared to other magic swords, it does not require such sophisticated mana management.

Thanks to that, I was able to learn Schnika without difficulty, and now that I was learning the highly difficult [Sword of Momentum], of course I couldn’t help but feel the difficulty.

“The most important thing when unleashing the sword of momentum is the concentration of magical power. No matter how pure magic is raised, no matter how fast the magic sword is opened… If the mana is not concentrated in one place, it will easily disappear.”

I put the unstable [Sword of Momentum] on my sword for illustrative purposes.

Then, with weak power, he struck the sword on the ground.

“like this.”

Then, the [Sword of Momentum] hovering in blue light disappeared in an instant, and the fairly heavy sword bounced off lightly.

If the unstable magic sword was raised through the medium of the tool, the tool itself could be lightened like this.

That was both an advantage and a disadvantage of Mana Manifestation.

“Wow… .”

“So, try to concentrate your mana in one place as much as possible. It will take some time, but once you get used to it, the process will be quicker. Understand?”

“Yep.”

I lightly shook my hand and inserted the sword.

“That’s all for today! Let’s go eat now.”

“huh!”

Shunica smiled brightly and nodded.

clap clap clap-

and somewhere

I hear people’s enthusiastic applause.

It was a group of students who had been watching our match from earlier.

“It’s starting again… .”

The first time you made [Safe Cage].

When I won the ＜Academy Coliseum＞.

When I first made [Anti-Venom]… .

Each time, this kind of phenomenon used to happen as awareness rose every time, but this time it was beyond imagination.

With the ridiculous title of ‘undergraduate student who annihilated lycanthropes and vampires’…

Maybe it’s a natural thing.

After a lot of tough events.

The imperial family of Apelliche informed the world about the appearance of the ‘double gate’ and the appearance of demons through a large-scale public announcement.

Venom Arcus, vampires, lycanthropes, and various other demonic clans.

And the double gate that summoned them.

From the continent’s point of view, quite shocking truths were revealed one after another.

In the meantime, I’ve been keeping the secret to kill vampires, but further silence could rather poison the continent.

In addition, the imperial family seems to have been convinced that most of the vampires were destroyed at the same time as the lycanthrope was annihilated in this operation.

The big named demons, including the Vampire Lord, were still alive, but now that they had succeeded in mass killing, it was time to put pressure on them through public announcements.

That’s how the imperial family made a grand announcement, and accordingly, articles about my activities continued to appear.

＜The Alchemist Defeated the Trick of the Demons＞, ＜From Undergraduate Student to Hero, Sacher Philip＞

…

…

There were only articles with shriveled titles.

It was only natural that these articles would show the greatest explosive power among articles about me that had ever been published.

Thanks to that, even now, when I went to eat, a group of students that could be called a crowd followed me.

“Shunika, aren’t you uncomfortable?”

“huh! It’s good to be famous!”

… Although Schnika doesn’t seem to mind at all.
