Bow Maintenance and Consumable Replenishment

The next day after Ive returned to a human city in a long time.

I immediately go to Nexias mine to mine ores; Im wanting Light Metal and Exploding Ore, but

I withdrew from the mine when Ive excavated for 30 minutes.

The result was that I got my hands on the bare minimum of Light Metal, quite a large amount of Exploding Ore, and some Steel and Silver, so lets call that good.

Furthermore, on the way back, lets go cut down several trees. Even though there used to be a ton of trees, recently its been sparse. Without needing to say it, its because the people who use bows have increased, though.

Now that resource depletion has become even harsher, no matter what kind of new methods developed for gather resources, if a new place isnt found, the situation will become dire. It would be fine if the devs had plans to supplement things.

I warped back from Nexia to Faust, and with my usual wood processing, the maintenance for the X-bow began.

The wounds that were beyond my imagination harshly reduced the wood for repairs steadily; its not like the city blacksmiths skill is bad, but because the weapon is too specialized, its too difficult to repair; this is a weak point, na

Just managing to do it to some degree, the left over wood is fashioned into arrows.

The intensely used Twister Arrows in particular will have to be replenished in great numbers.

This time it practically didnt need any maintenance, but since I walked on them, of course I will inspect them for forms sake.

Next is the Compounding workshop, to compound Enhanced Oil and Rare Potions.

I usually dont have the opportunity to use Rare Potions much, but there are also things like that Lady Fenrir from before, so although I dont have many medicinal herbs, it wont do not to make them, I guess.

By the way, making the Enhanced Oils all together required me to have a large amount of MP, but thanks to the Pikarshas feather, I was somehow able to do it.

And lastly, I headed from the Compounding Workshop to the Forge.

Oo, Earth, its been a while!

And, for some reason, Boss, whos always there.

Its been a while; I went over to the Fairy Country.

In response to that replay, Boss also smiled and said, Its about time that I should try heading over there, to sightsee.

Boss has work to do, so we cut off the conversation, and I sit in front of the work areas hearth.

First off, if I dont make the ores into ingots, I cant get to work.

I set the gathered Light Metal to melt in the forge, and removing the impurities, I make ingots.

However, if I lose to this heat and remove my hand, the quality will mercilessly plunge, so its a crucial job.

And after some time had passed, I was able to make Light Metal ingots; now I just need to do the Steel and Silver I work up my nerve and faced the forge again.

Finally making ingots, I used the Steel and made Twist Arrow arrowheads.

Anyway, this number is probably enough; about 4,000 Twist Arrows are produced.

After finishing the production of arrows, I checked the Fang Leg Blades just in case, but as expected, I cam to the conclusion that they wouldnt need any maintenance.

From here on its new production, so I treat the Light Metal and make it thin, making 2 long armor slabs. I want to affix them to exterior of the X-Bow so that the resistance of the Bow would increase even more; so Im basically aiming for an increase in fire power.

With this treatment, the appearance of the X-Bow will be 2 Light Metal branches intersecting, so looking at it, it looks like a metal bow, I bet although the insides are still wood.

Hitting it several times, I check the weight. Its just a little, but I think its not to my standards, so I hit it again.

It took about half an hour of repetitive work

Finally the Light Metal exterior veneer, or more like the cover, was finished.

Putting on the exterior onto the X-Bows bow parts, I equip it.

I check the final weight As expected, its a little heavy but its within the acceptable range, next is how the bow draws after pulling it back several times, theres no problems, and I confirmed that its not too difficult to draw, and that theres no weird noise.

Since the system also recognizes it as a finished product, I have a sense of relief.

That said, Im grateful that the firepower has increased; if I didnt raise it here, Ill hit a road block in the future.

So lets clearly say that this product was necessary.

Hou-, so the next weapon is reinforced like this.

Because a voice so suddenly appeared from behind me, I raised a startled, Uwhoa-!?, and caused the other smith comrades working in the Forge to glance over. I apologetically bow my head.

Boss, dont suddenly speak up from right behind me, please

You might say that its because I was concentrating to such a degree, but it really gave me a scare.

You made all sorts of things, from one thing to another. Oh, right, you have a customer; you should go handle that.

Like that, where his finger was pointed, there was the Guild Master of the bow guild, Apollos Bow, Ayame-san, and a few others.

Since that time with Nether they hadnt had any requests, but what in the world could they want me for it would be good if it wasnt something troublesome, but my logout time is soon, too.
