33 ◆ Fairy Delino
============
While playing with Slime in the labyrinth, I got the scabbard of "Brave Sword".
The [special effect] of the scabbard has something that "changes its shape and becomes armor", and it seems that you do not know what kind of armor it will be depending on my status and situation.
"Well, do you want to try it for the time being?"
I held the "Sword of the Hero" in my right hand and held the power of the Hero in this body, and raised the sheath of my left hand.
Being careful, activate something like "Fairy King's Defense".
It overflowed from the rainbow-colored light.
When the scabbard without extra decoration glowed white, it changed its shape.
"What is this? Helmet?"
Something like a hard hemispherical hat. Although it is made of metal, it is relatively light.
=====
Name: Safety helmet (master specification)
Classification: Helmet
Attack power: E
Defense: B
Attack power: E
Anti-magical power: E
[Explanation]
Armor that protects the head. Harder and lighter than a normal "safety helmet".
Mainly used for construction sites and dungeon exploration.
Specializes in physical defense.
[Special effects]
None.
[State]
The sheath of the "Brave Sword" has changed. Anyone can use it.
=====
"What is this !?"
I see the "appraisal" result twice.
The defense power is B rank and so high. But why are the things that people at the construction site mainly use ...?
Besides, if you are a brave man, it is likely to be a higher rank armor with special effects.
If you read the safety helmet and other things deeper and even the information on the sheath in detail.
"Well, does it only affect my original status, not the total status after reading and stealing?"
My original status was only partially reached B.
Well, I'm convinced if you say something like this.
"If I become stronger, will it be a powerful armor?"
It's a hassle, but that's what I was aiming for from the beginning.
In order to defeat the evil dragon, my personal power must be as good as a hero. maybe.
"I have to train while waiting for Delino to lure the fairy."
If you read and steal the hero, you can power up, right?
"How many years will it take?"
"Don't say anything that will frustrate you."
Well, it's a fact that you can't be lenient.
"Isn't there a quick way to get status up?"
Sylphy and his friends crossed their arms and thought seriously about my remarks by humans.
In the meantime, U-tan said it was crazy.
"There are good items."
"Seriously !?"
As expected, there is only a fairy king. When I stared at my eyes full of expectations, U-tan turned around and shook his plump chest.
"I gave it to Earth Drago. It's because of that item that the mediocre guy has risen to the ranks of a brave man at a young age."
"I've been thinking about it for a long time, but U-tan is sweet to Earth Drago. I'd like to create a" sword of the brave "."
"Hahaha, when I think about it now, I gave it as requested by skillful words. Forgiveness ☆"
It was the moment when my respect for Earth Drago changed to awe.
I want to talk carefully again. Mainly about the handling of U-tan.
"So where is that good thing?"
"Um. I should have brought it back with me ..."
U-tan turned his plump buttocks toward us and shook the back of the throne.
I grabbed it and threw it, and it fell on my head.
The safety helmet is a big success.
"Hmm. By the way, wasn't it in the middle of taking it home? It seems that it was lost" outside "."
U-tan who speaks uselessly. I twisted myself on the throne and sat back towards me.
"The name of the item is'Growdake Amulet'. If you feel like it, look for" outside ". Then you will find it soon."
I remembered the name.
When I returned to the Kingdom of Philianis, I wonder if I would do some research.
If you are in the vicinity, let's go get it positively.
In this way, we returned to the kingdom for the time being.
As soon as I got home, I reunited with an unexpected person.
"It's been a long time. Mr. Mel Lailute"
It was Marianne, a beautiful knight with red hair and a big sword on her back.
~~~
The time goes back a little.
When Mel and his friends went to "Fairy Land".
There was a knight in the forest near the Kingdom of Philianis.
"Guu, uuu ..."
The neat face was distorted, and he was desperately enduring something by holding the big sword in his hand.
She tied her fiery red hair to one behind her. The normally clear blue eyes were now cloudy red and black.
Marianne Verdemion.
A knight who is the eldest daughter of the Bademion family, a prestigious kingdom of the Granderia, and has the unique skill "Heavenly Eye".
She doesn't move.
While holding the big sword, I was desperate to suppress the urge to destroy that overflowed from inside my body.
The bushes rang lightly.
A rabbit popped out. He bends his neck in front of Marianne and moves his long ears.
"Gut ... oh!"
The sword that tried to swing up reflexively was pressed down with as much force as possible.
The rabbit was surprised and jumped into the bush and disappeared.
It was already the limit.
Marianne voluntarily released the "madness" state.
"Uhhhhhhhhh ..."
The body became heavy like lead and the knees were broken. He dropped his big sword and crawls on all fours to breathe.
A voice came down there. A high-pitched child-like laughter echoed.
"Is it a masochist to hurt yourself?"
Lift the neck with a jerk. However, I can't find the foot of the person who seems to be the main voice. Even if I looked to the left and right, and turned my face to the sky, there was no one anywhere.
I wondered if it was a hallucination, and I sat down on the spot with my breath.
"Oh no, it's been gone."
When I thought I could hear the voice again, something small came down in front of Marianne.
Something like a palm-sized humanoid. There was a transparent wing on the back.
Short hair stands upright, and its appearance, combined with a cheeky tone, reminds me of a boy. However, the size was different from those of the people in the first place, and the pale green light was bleeding from the whole body.
"Yeah, fairy ...?"
Marianne was also the first to see the real thing. It was very similar to the way I heard it, so I managed to evoke it from my memory.
"What? What were you doing?"
"Well, that ... training ..."
Marianne is in the middle of a journey. I was chasing Mel Lailute, who was recognized as the "Sword of the Hero".
"Are you looking for a brave man? Is it okay to skip here?"
Although it was a mission given by the government, I was aware that it was a good and troublesome person to pay.
Rather than neglecting the search for the current hero, he was taking the time to train to overcome his weaknesses that could hinder his mission.
The footsteps of Mel Lai Root are also in place. He was undoubtedly heading to her hometown, the Kingdom of Philianis, with the elf girl he was with.
"I'm not skipping. I had a" madness "in my own skill, and I was training to activate and cancel the" madness "at my own will."
Thanks, it is possible to do that.
Marianne was convinced that the rank should have risen to D, although she had not been properly "appraised".
Training for "madness" is a battle with oneself.
After training to look inside himself in the cave for about two full days, he was finally able to activate it. Even while "Crazy" is activated, I try not to lose sight of myself, and I can cancel it arbitrarily.
"I'm having a hard time, that's it? What's the point of doing it?"
The fairy holds her belly and laughs.
"I believe that if you keep going, you will eventually be able to control the'madness'at will. That will make me dramatically stronger."
Marianne was eager to be able to compete with the brave.
"Hmm. Is there a way to get stronger more easily?"
"There is no easy way to go on the path of the sword. Only by following the path of thorns can you gain true strength."
"Well, that's an excuse that a weak guy might use. Even the former hero ... What? Ah, yeah, it seems that an item like" Amulet of Glow Dake "made it easier and stronger?"
"'Growdake Amulet' ...?"
Marianne bends her head. It was the name of the item I heard for the first time.
"Now, I'm sure it's in the Tower of Boldan. Well, the monsters over there have rank A, and they'll slap before picking up the item."
The fairy laughed and took out a transparent bottle from nowhere. There is a terrifyingly colored liquid inside.
"If you take this guy, you can become as strong as a brave man right away. Well, it's a bit painful, but it's natural that there are such disadvantages? How about? Why don't you try it?"
The fairy presented the bottle in front of Marianne.
A feeling of disgust that caused nausea crawls all over the body.
However, Marianne's arm lifts up unknowingly when she says, "I can be as strong as a brave man."
Warning that it is useless for hands.
A longing to become stronger.
Marianne posed a question as the two quarreled.
"Who are you ...?"
The fairy answered with a carefree smile.
"My name is Delino. Like you, I'm interested in heroes."
Same as myself. Marianne extended her hand to the fairy who said that.
