Volume 4 - Ch 5.18



Can Damascus Steel be dropped by a monster as its Drop Item?

Yes, it can. Damascus Steel is an item dropped by a monster called Rem Gollem.

Good. Damascus Steel is better than ordinary steel, but is there something that tops Damascus Steel in terms of value and durability?

That is right. Tha material that is a grade above Damascus Steel in a same way that Damascus Steel tops steel is called Orichalcum.

Orichalcum? I feel like I have heard that name somewhere before, but I absolutely cannot remember where. Maybe is some RPG game, perhaps?

Do you know about Orichalcum, master?

Sherry asked, most likely because of the facial expression that I had when she mentioned Orichalcum.

No, that is the first time I am hearing about it, but the name itself got me interested. Do you know how to make it?

No, and as of yet, I cannot even begin to imagine myself creating a high-grade material such as that.

I guess I should have expected that, since back on earth Orichalcum was depicted mostly as a legendary metal that was supposed to be tougher than all ordinary metals known to mankind. I just feel glad that it did not turn out that the thing that is a grade above Damascus Steel is actually Depleted Uranium, because then we would have a problem. . . . . . . . . . . oh, wait a minute. . . . . . . . what if, what if Depleted Uranium was actually Orichalcum all along?!

I see.

Okay, let us not go to such places with my thought trains. Orichalcum is Orichalcum, and definitely not Depleted Uranium, and that is final, end of story.

However, I did not see anything that would look like Orichalcum Sword back there in the Weapon Shop. It was filled only with Copper Swords, Iron Swords and Steel Swords. Are weapons made out of Orichalcum something that you cannot obtain from Weapon Shops, or through ordinary means?

When it comes to the Orichalcum-class weapons, I think it is quite possible the shopkeepers might be selling them only to the people whom they have close relationships with, or perhaps they sell them only through the auctions, and not in their shops directly. If the word got around that they are keeping such rare and valuable weapons in their stores, then the amount of break-ins and robberies in those establishments would simply skyrocket.

Yeah, Sherry was absolutely right. If these weapons really are much more valuable than the regular ones, then of course it would make much more sense to sell them all at auctions where the prices can often get pretty ridiculous if you were to happen upon a bidder who would decide that he needs to have that particular item at all costs.

So that is how valuable Orichalcum and the weapons made out of it are for the people of this world? I am not going to lie, this makes me want to have one of these for myself, just so that I could see for myself how amazing they really are.

Afterwards, we went to the Labyrinth of Vale, but not to make any progress in our exploration, but simply so that we could go to its second floor to hunt ourselves some Green Caterpillars and collect their Drop Items: Silk Threads. With a sizeable amount of them on us, we went back home, where I intended to have Sherry create us a Misanga before dinner.

All right Sherry, here are all of the Silk Threads we have collected today. Think you will be able to make a Misanga out of them without any problems?

Yes, master, that should be more than enough. Well then, allow me to get to work on it!

I handed all of the Silk Threads off to Sherry, and she accepted them eagerly. Next, she placed one bundle of Silk Threads in her left hand, and another one in her right hand and proceeded to chant the incantation for the Armor Creationspell. When she was done, the threads in her hands began to shine with a brilliant, yet somewhat violent light which was reminiscent of the one that shined when she created a Copper Sword of Obstruction. That was her cue to clasp her hands together, which caused the two base items in her hands to merge into a singular new item.

I see now. So this is how accessories are made? I guess the process really is the same for all types of items, just like you said.

Ohhh, this is the first time where I have seen people actually make equipment. It looks every bit as amazing as I have imagined.

So Roxanne also felt amazed when she saw Sherry make equipment, huh? Well, I can definitely say that I understand how she feels.

Eventually, the light in Sherrys hands finally subsided, revealing the final product of Sherrys latest fusion:

{Misanga}

Accessory

Skills: None

Effects: None

Yes, what remained in Sherrys hands now was a freshly created Misanga. As expected, even though it has been fused with a Skill, it had no Skills or effects because there was no Skill Crystals involved in the fusion process. Also, looking at Sherry now, it does not look like is experiencing any of the effects of the MP deficit, so that probably means that the fusion of ordinary items without any Skills added into them does not consume as much MP as the fusion of items with Skills in them does. But maybe I should ask her, just to be absolutely sure:

How are you feeling, Sherry? No negative thought plaguing your head all of a sudden?

No, master, I feel fine. The fusion of equipment without any Skills added onto them does not cost as much MP as the fusion of items with Skills in them, so as long as you will want me to fuse ordinary items, I should be able to make a few of them instead of just one.

Okay, that is great to know, but tell me now: can the item and equipment fusion fail even when making simple equipment like the Misanga that you just created?

I should be fine as long as I will keep making simple things in order to gain more experience as a Master Smith, but if I suddenly tried to make something much more difficult, then the probability of failure would be much higher than usual. You also need to remember that even if you have the necessary tools and resources for making a successful fusion, there is always a chance that the fusion might randomly fail, and there is nothing you can do about it.

Sherry answered. So as long as she keeps making normal items that are not too difficult to make she should be okay. Also, after our bit of exploration for Silk Threads her level as a Master Smith has increased to Lv.5, so even if she had to make something with a Skill in it, her MP should not get totally depleted with only a single fusion.

Oh really?

I muttered to myself while receiving the Misanga from Sherrys hands. Although it was created through a Skill, it looked like a perfectly ordinary braided bracelet with nothing strange or abnormal about it. It is just a simple accessory that can be wrapped around your wrist or ankle.

There is also a saying, or I guess a superstition would be the more appropriate word here, among the Master Smiths community. A superstition that states that if a Master Smith manages to create a Sacrificial Misangaas their first item ever fused, then that means that they are definitely going to have successful business as Master Smiths.

Is that so? Well, would it not be nice if that turned out to be true?

It most certainly would, but I would not hold my breath counting on it. That story is nothing more but a myth that is supposed to encourage the young Master Smiths to commit to their craft without the fear of failure.

A myth, huh? Well, you can never know for sure. Personally, I like to believe that every myth has a bit of truth mixed in with it.

Of course it is a myth. Creating items with Skill in them has nothing to do with skill, luck, fate or any other similar thing.
