Chapter 1: Trying Out Meeting the Feudal Lord Part6
Part 6
The Demon Kings Ring that he had equipped reflected magic.
Diablo had no choice but to rely on potions to recover.
As a result, needing to make potions on his own, Diablo took the subclass of Compounder.
Believing that would surely be able to compound as well, he should probably try and procure the ingredients.
A curio shop
It was an old building in a section of the Southern Districts shopping district.
This store also had its door closed, and one could enter by pulling open that big door.
It was clear that the goods that had amounts that were too large to be placed in this store were crowded into the shelves. There were various items, from things that he recognized to things that he didnt.
Come to think of it, in the middle of the Middle Ages, the literacy rate was less than half, wasnt it.
Rem asked a question.
Yeah, yeah, Diablo, you dont look like you would drink stuff like potions, you know?
Making Recovery Potions required time and the cost of the materials. Thats why, when everyone else became a level where they could use recovery magic, they naturally stopped using them.
Well, its probably hard to imagine the appearance of a Demon King using a potion.
He either had to take care of his Demon King image, or go for the benefits of using them.
However, he had already come to a conclusion.
It would first be mortifying as a gamer.
It would also break his promise to defeat the Demon King Krebskrem that was sealed within Rem.
A fight where he absolutely couldnt afford to lose, was right here. He couldnt win just by encouraging himself with that.
And then, how Diablos magic was excellent was something that Rem and Shera already understood, and Alicia also seemed to agree. Even if he were to be seen buying potion ingredients, his majesty wouldnt be lethally injured.
Although he became a bit timid, Diablo continued to the inner part of the store.
There was an awfully old, worn out, wooden table.
This is also an NPC that I know of.
Other than having dog ears and tails, Dwarf children didnt have a great difference from Human children. This girl had chihuahua-like dog ears, as they were large and triangular.
This girl had the setting of the granddaughter that tended to the store in her grandmothers absence.
There are some things that I need.
Those were lines that were pretty much how they were in the game.
It was net chat that never had an answer come out.
An unpleasant theory crossed his mind.
Supposing that he were to ask that rude question, if it were to give the store tending girls heart a deep wound, hed have no way to follow up.
Diablo gave out the names of the ingredients needed for Elementary HP Recovery Potion Compounding.
The store tending girl put her finger to her lips looking like she was thinking.
In the game, if these two were compounded, an HP Recovery Potion would be completed.
Do you have bottle-like things to put potions in?
However, in this world, if medicinal plants and water were combined then even a container would readied with it, such a thing was probably impossible.
Nn~We do~.
Diablo made a sigh of relief in his mind.
Well then, those thingsSell me nine of each.
In the game, items of the same variety would gather up for a max number of nine per slot. Thats why, he had a habit of up to nine piece whenever he bought items.
However, even if he were to correct himself now, a gap was created.
Nn~I dont get it.
I got it!
It seemed that even with the amazingly large amount of goods in the store, she understood the location of each and every one.
Curio shops have it hard too.
After a short time, the store tending girl came back.
The Forest Poppy Leaves were leaves that were neither big nor small, being the size of a palm, were a vivid pea green.
It seemed that they came in bundles of ten. Customers that expressly only bought nine was probably rare.
What was left was the cylinders that looked like test tubes, but these were called Potion Cans and were things that looked like flasks made of metal.
I guess this should be enough to test out Compounding for now?
Since the items effectiveness was fixed, as ones level goes up, Elementary items were things that lose their effectiveness.
That potion that would recover an even greater amount of HP and had a status increasing effect was a rare potion that required scarce ingredients just to make it.
Though, since he had not tested out compounding in this world, he was a bit anxious.
MP Recovery Potions, compared to HP Recovery Potions, required ingredients that were rare to a high degree. How would it be in this world.
Nn~We dont have that kind of rare stuff~.
Are they not ingredients that can be obtained even in this area? They should be collectable in the back regions of the Man-Eating Forest.
MuI see.
In the game, even if no one accepted the quests, it didnt cause the curio shop to be out of stock on items. However, it was only natural that in reality, the distribution of goods would stagnate.
Diablo informed the store tending girl.
Nn~I got it~UmmEverything will be 9 F, I guess.
In this world, the Adventurers level was low, but the prices were about equal with the game, or rather, were comparitively high.
However, in this world, although Return Magic existed, it wasnt spread out to the general public. A legend that the Divine Beings used it was left behind, and there was only gossip that the Magicians of the Royal Capital could use it.
No matter how softhearted the Adventurer that did the collecting was, they probably wouldnt sell it for cheap.
Since three silver coins was 12 F, there would be 3 F in change butIf its in copper coins, there would be 3 coins. At times like this, there are many times where a silver coin that was cut in half, a half silver coin, would be returned as 2 F.
He was given back half of a silver coin and 1 copper coins.
Umu.
How she attached in all with the change, that part made her seem like a grandmas girl. It was like a confectionary shop in a lower part of town.
Now then, how should I carry it back?
With him holding this luggage on top of holding the Trial-Made Great War Scythe and The Staff of Tenma, he looked more like a peddler than a Demon King.
Shall I carry it for you?
In the game, there were up to 3 slots in the pouch that items could be put into.
Five slots was 15 yen
How about it!? My 6 yen!?
Normally, it would probably would absolutely never go in. It was a leather bad with 1 L of water going into a pouch that looked like only a wallet and a smartphone could fit inside of it.
It smoothly went in.
When he involuntarily spoke that out loud, Rem said Is six-thousand-yen some kind of magic? and tilted her head in confusion.
Nn? So she couldnt understand when I said six thousand yen. But she understood when I said six thousand Furis.
What kind of arrangement was this?
Since the outlook of the world was set to be Middle Age Europe-like, was it Latin? However, this was another world.
He decided to inquire about this eventually.
Just to be sure, he tried taking out the leather bag of Green Nature Water.
And then, if he put his hand in, his fingertips would touch the thing he was aiming for.
He also tossed in the bundle of Forest Poppy Leaves and the Potion Cans one by one.
Ohh~!?
Rems voice was trembling.
Shera put her hands together with a *Pon*.
Hou? So theres one also in the Country of the Elves?
What I saw was something called The Hundred Quiver, and was a quiver that could have as many arrows go in it as you liked! Though, when I tried it out as a kid, only 99 could go in and thought its too bad that its one short!.
Rem raised an amazed voice.
When arrows are put into the pouch, nine of them would take up a single slot, but when stored in a quiver, it was possible to possess up to 99 arrows.
Is it that scarce of an item?
Fumu fumu
Well, if my treasury were to be opened, Id be able to show you even more countless treasures.
Its capacity was several times bigger than the pouchs capacity, and most likely, even if all of the different items that were implemented in Cross Reverie were put in, there would still be space left over.
Since it was a game, there was a convenient method where he could take out an item that was put in from a certain town from a warehouse of a different town.
However, at present, there was no trace of the warehouse.
It also wasnt in the inns room.
Or possibly, is it at my base?
Diablo created a Demon King-like Dungeon in that personal space.
However, it might be good to try going there at least once.
Since he still didnt know what was the same as the game and what was different from it, there might be a chance that his own Dungeon and collection are also in this world.
Diablo stored the luggage in the pouch, and returned to the inn.
