Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 51

 

Chapter 51: Orihalcum



"Uwaa~!"


“Sylvie! Don't bring out your face!"


Sermus' daughter, Sylvie, seems to have ridden a carriage for the first time.


“Sedona, Sedona! The wind feels good!"


She's been leaning out of the carriage for a while now, feeling up the wind.


"Have you ever ridden in one before, Sedona? Carriage.”


"No! But when Uncle Rumseil carried me on his back, it was this fast!"


"Eh~ Sedona, that's not fair! I'll have Rumseil Nii-chan carry me too!


After the turmoil seven years ago


For some reason, Sermus-san and Rumseil-san got along well and exchanged a vow to become brothers-in-law.


Even the lord was smiling at this.


But soon after, Gotton-san got pregnant.


The problem was the other person.


It was Sermus-san.


Before I knew it, they were dating and they did it without informing their parents.


The lord seems to have a hard time dealing with it


At any rate, she was on his side and had been impregnated without reporting to his parents.


Sermus-san was brutally beaten


"I thought she was on birth control."


"I never thought I would get pregnant."


No, they shouldn't have done it in the first place.


The first problem was that Gotton-san was a commoner.


So Shiro-san suggested


"If we make Gotton a hero or a heroine, we can disguise the fact that she's a commoner, can't we?"


So as a report to the royal capital


“Gotton is a commoner, but she is a woman who has faced the horror of monsters head-on, helped to clean them up, developed new weapons, and will no doubt make a great contribution to the kingdom in the future. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with her being the wife of a lord."


This solved the problem


Immediately after, there was a new problem.


A nobleman in the territory has secretly recovered a piece of meat from the synthetic dragon, Dranmeira. It turns out that they are offering it to the royal capital.


And report this as Elfriade's involvement in the disturbance


On the lord's side, the report is all about Gotton's case and no details about the disturbance.


After this contact, they never mentioned it again.


And now this letter.


“Baron Sermus, his wife Gotton, Rumseil, the dragon worshipper, Shiro, the dragon interlocutor, his partner Wince, and Sedona, the dragon's child, are invited to the capital.”


It seems that a spy has infiltrated the town from the royal capital side, and various things have been exposed.


We had no choice but to go to the royal capital to solve the problem.


"Mother!"


Sedona spoke


"What kind of place is Royal Capital?"


“I don't know, Mother's never been there either. Gotton-san, you've never been there either, have you?"


"No, I've never been there because I've been hitting a lot of iron with my father."


"Mother is always talking about iron. Father said he missed her."


Gotton-san's daughter, Sylvie, pokes her where it hurts


"Uu, I'm sorry"


"Apologize to Father, not me!"


"Yeah, I'll apologize later."


"Good!"




----------------




"Shiro-dono, it's dangerous."


"Don't worry, I won't drop it"


"That's not exactly what I meant. I would like you to refrain from cleaning weapons in the carriage."


Rumseil got mad.


"I must check the condition of the weapon while I'm in the carriage."


"What has changed?"


"Oh, you want to know?"


"I'd love to"


Sermus is with them as well


"Look, this"


Bending the large sword around 15 cm from the base of the handle.


Then, snap*.


"It's broken!"


"It's not broken."


When attached, it returns to its original long handle.


"What is this?"


"It's Orichalcum."


Yes, I got Orichalcum


When the Lizardmen chief was sorting through the dragon god's belongings, he found an ancient book.


It took the Lizardmen all their might to decipher it.


It was written in the book that metal could be refined from a piece of flesh of the synthetic dragon, Dranmeira.


The metal was very small but unbreakable.


And yet it can be conveniently divided at will.


And even if it was divided, it will reconnect and return to its original state


Like a magnet


I got it from Gotton's Father when I left town.


And there was a name written on it in an ancient manuscript.


[Orichalcum]


"This makes it much easier to carry around."


"It's still big, though."


"...I can see a little mana in the joint. The long sword too."


As expected of Rumseil, he's very perceptive.


"Correct, it can also be connected to the long sword. It will become a spear."


"I've never heard of a spear with such a long blade."


"But it looks like you can go easy on them in the future."


Hmm? What do you mean by that, Sermus?


“If it's just the hilt, it's not very deadly, is it? When you get back, you can have a little friendly competition with the guards."


"Why?"


“There are many who would like to fight you, Shiro-san.”


Seriously


"I don't really like fighting, you know?"


"What are you saying now?"
