The situation without my main weapon, the mineral tree, is clearly a hindrance to my work.
I've learned to fight fighting and magic to be able to fight without weapons, so I'm able to fight as a vanguard or wizard in my main job.
But you have to have your main weapon with you if you want to fight well.
But what happens if that main weapon comes back within a month, or two months at the latest?
Faced with the problem of whether to buy or not to buy, and even if to prepare, how to prepare.
Hmmm.
"Not this one too?
"Oh, it doesn't feel right.
To sum up, I do not want to compromise on tools, even for a short time.
So I came to a familiar store to look for a weapon.
However, my partner's mineral tree seems to have gotten a lot better without me noticing, and my budgeted weapon just doesn't seem to fit.
It's a pretty good piece of equipment too, huh?
Yeah, I don't doubt Hands' word. I think it's a good sword, too. I'm the one to blame.
You're going to buy a 10 million dollar budget, a luxury car, thinking that ordinary weapons won't work in the dungeon you're going through now? I came to Hands with the intention of investing that kind of budget in the store.
I guess I've been equipped with a sense of luxury.
The feeling of holding the hilt, the carefully crafted sword that reflects my face like a mirror, I feel disappointed and quietly hand the sword back to Han's. "I think it'll be better if you adjust it.
"I think it'll get better with some adjustments, huh?
I guess so, huh?
After work, after visiting Suela and telling Himik that I'll be late, I'm visiting the Hands store by myself.
The purpose is to buy tools for work.
When I came here, I told them I came to Han's to buy a sword, they were surprised that I was unusual, and when I explained the situation, they patted me on the back for a job well done.
Thanks to that, I was able to go into the store, which was still in the process of closing, and take a closer look at the weapon.
But I'm having more trouble finding a replacement than I thought.
I wish I could compromise, but my obsessive intuition tells me that this is not the right weapon for me, so I look for another one.
I see what you're saying, but if there's nothing else, there's only the magic sword.
It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for in the store," he said, rubbing his chin in annoyance.
I've removed spears, staffs and other weapons that I don't use, swords, daggers and large swords, and swords of all sizes, from watashi to sword, but I haven't been able to find the right one.
The sword I just owned was the last one.
From the middle of the search, I had to ignore the budget.
In fact, the sword is three times our budget.
It's one of Hans's masterpieces.
A demon sword, you said it was impossible before.
And what remains is a series called the Magic Sword.
Commonly known as the playfulness of the giants.
A mass of demerits that emphasizes performance and disregards ease of use, with a performance that sounds romantic and is too gentle to use, even the word "peaky" is too gentle.
But then it occurred to me that Evvia knows how to use her magic sword.
"Hands, let me ask you a question.
"Ah?
"How do I master the magic sword?
There are no disadvantages, she said.
Doesn't that mean there are ways to keep the disadvantages at bay?
That prediction seemed to be correct, and she nodded satisfyingly, "There's a spunk," she said.
That's spunk.
What?
I asked him what it was, and he answered with a single word.
So I gave him a cold look and said, "What the hell is this guy talking about?
"No, really. The demerits of the magic sword are mostly mental ones. So there are many ways to deal with it, such as training your mind or giving it magical powers instead, but the most important thing is to get into it so that your mind doesn't waver.
I nodded in agreement with the content of the hands, which explained to me hurriedly that there was not enough explanation in his eyes.
I'm sure there are a lot of game-like elements to it, but Himikku's weapon must have been one that required a large amount of magical power.
That would be an exception.
In fact, that's how we giants make magic swords. You can make a magic sword and still be a master, that's what we know.
"I see.
I suppose that's true.
How can I make one if it affects me just by holding it?
Having the demon sword in the store means that you can make the demon sword.
In other words, those who can make magic swords like Hands and the others are able to endure the demerits of the magic sword with guts.
Hmmm, is it hard?
Well, it's not easy. We train with our master's magic sword, but there are many people who can't hold it for life if their heart is not strong enough to do so and retire from blacksmithing. I'm sure it's one in ten or even more. To be one of the handful, we are swinging a hammer every day to be one of them.
"Oh, wow.
It takes concentration to make a weapon.
You have to hit the hammer exactly where you want it to be and then adjust the force.
By doing this, you can train your mind.
I honestly admire you for combining work and training.
Normally it would be irritating to stretch your chest with a smug look on your face, but you are an experienced craftsman.
The pride you carry in your heart doesn't make you feel that way, and you can honestly admire it.
Do you want to try it?
Well, as long as you can use it better than a poorly made weapon.
Yeah, well, you'll be fine.
And I guess he was just trying to find the right moment to say it.
This way, he starts leading me to the back of the store.
Do you have any proof that you're okay?
How many years do you think I've been a blacksmith? If you can't measure up to your customers, you're halfway around the world in our circles.
Following my weighty steps, I followed in a suit.
There was a door next to the counter, and there was a space that could be called another store.
It's the first time you've opened this place.
What is this place?
"You know what? Every weapon in here is a magic sword.
What is different from the front store is that they are all lined up in a tightly sealed case to prevent them from being touched easily.
But even through the cases, you can feel their presence.
Just in this space alone, you can feel the different pressure on your skin.
This is a space where each one of these swords gives off a sense of evil.
"My prediction was that it would be another ten years before you would be able to get in here.
Taking out a bunch of metal keys, Hans approaches the case closest to the entrance.
"Hey, Jiro. Remember the first time you came to my store?
"Oh, that's when you were recommended to me by Memoria.
And then I took a key out of the lock.
That's when I remember my encounter with Hans.
Didn't I half-jokingly offer you a magic sword?
"Yeah, it's a hell of a performance, but the downside is that it's a bad deal.
He offered me the magic sword then, too.
I didn't know if he was joking or not, and I remember saying no, feeling afraid for my safety.
That was our way of warning you.
Open the case and take out a dagger that is probably on display.
It is a beautiful blade with a pale blue color, but it has an evil look within its beauty.
For a warning, you seem to be enjoying selling it.
Seriously, if you're too confident, you'll buy it because you think you're fine. In fact, the magic sword is not a problem at first. Every time you use it, the demon sword will eat away at you and before you know it, it's too late.
Gently, he looked at the magic sword presented to him.
"Does the name of the sword have an ending that lives up to its name?
Yes, that's why we tell the magic sword's performance in a funny way. That's why we tell you the performance of the magic sword in a funny way. Funny advice is still advice. And jokingly, if you ask me to be serious, I can tell you to hone your skills and come back later.
I see, it's a rational decision with a store ad and a warning. So, Hands, now that you're seriously recommending the magic sword.
"Oh, have at it.
You feel the evil, you feel the danger.
But...
"Hmm, my first time holding a magic sword, it's surprisingly common.
I took the presented dagger in my hand and checked its texture.
Because it is called a demon sword, its workmanship is better than what was sold in stores.
You can find a number of different types of daggers in the market.
Did you feel any discomfort?
"There is
And I called it normal, but I answered Hands' question honestly.
"Well, it's definitely a magic sword.
The brilliance of the blade, its beauty, fascinated me, and the slightest glimmer in my consciousness.
The desire to kill, or in this case, the will to fight?
It's not that good. That's the sharpest one you'll ever see. It's one of the five sharpest magic swords I've ever made. However, I can't resist the urge to keep that blade open, to continue fighting.
"We're just waiting for the battle crazies, aren't we?
If you don't
The desire to fight is bubbling up like a musketeer.
Lightly wielding a magic sword shaped like a single-edged cutlass, you can feel the sensation that even air is being cut from your fingertips.
And that desire.
Are you upset?
As far as I can see. As far as I can see, a man who is beaten by the demon sword can tell who is better or worse from the moment he holds it. That's because your eyes aren't drawn to the demon sword. You'll be fine.
That's good, it's just, well . It's quite a habit to use.
"That's what a magic sword is,
It's perfectly manageable.
As a magic sword, it feels like a sports car with a heavy brake pedal and a light accelerator pedal.
A sports car that doesn't allow for deceleration and keeps on accelerating.
Its limitless acceleration will eventually destroy the driver.
How effortlessly you can apply the brake pedal is the key.
Yeah, I like that.
Want to buy one?
I experienced the danger firsthand.
But instead of clenching my mouth in frustration or fear, a grin lifted my cheeks.
No, let me see the other one. I'd like to see something close to my mineral tree anyway.
"Ooh, that one.
I've decided that I can take a natural approach, and instead of going for it, I follow Hands' back and try out the magic swords he has selected one after another.
It's too heavy.
"Then move on.
Long sword demon sword.
Self-inflicted wounds are just too much damage.
You know how powerful it is?
"Reject, a**h*le.
The Magic Sword of the One-Handed Sword.
Light, but too big.
"Name it Dragon Slayer!
Well, you can cut the dragon's head off with this, but it's not good enough to handle it, dismissed.
The Great Sword of Magic, taller than Hanz.
That's not a sword, that's a blunt instrument.
The shape is the shape of a sword, right?
Yeah, but it's not sharp enough and the sword doesn't weigh much. Rejected.
A magic sword that looks like a bludgeoning weapon, thought to be in a sheath.
Hands happily handed me magic swords one after the other.
I'm starting to enjoy it, and I hold it in my hand while Hands explains the magic sword to me.
"How about this one then!
And I think he was amused.
He smiled and pulled out a sword from its case, housed in a shiny purple scabbard.
"Heh! This is one of the best magic swords I've made recently. It's a product I've taken the methods of this world's blacksmithing and forged it to be called Shiko!
I thought it was the color of the scabbard to match the name of the sword, but that was not the case.
I took it from Hans and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard to reveal a reddish-purple sword.
How do you like it? Magic stone of fire and magic stone of water, a product that blends conflicting attributes, and even crawled with the magic of shadow! Not only is it sharp, but it's also an excellent magic medium, excellent at using magic in the three attributes! In addition, it even restores its sharpness by letting you suck its own blood. It's a type of magic sword called a bloodsucking sword!
I know what you mean when you say you're fascinated, but I think this sword is exceptional.
Lightly wielded, it feels comfortable, the weight is just right, and the sword's pacing is similar to that of a mineral tree.
What are the downsides?
However, even if it's a good magic sword at this stage, you can't let your guard down until you see the disadvantages.
The demerits of the demon sword are many and varied, starting from becoming a battle-crazed, to losing the sense of existence, to becoming s*xually aroused, and so on.
Basically, these demerits are all related to the self-consciousness, but what are the demerits?
"That demon sword, or as they say in this country, a demon sword? Either way, we tried something new in making it.
"New Attempt?
Oh, we tried to boost performance by making a single disadvantage, but I thought we could reduce the disadvantages and increase performance by imposing multiple disadvantages.
Oh.
Before you hear what it says, well, wait," Hands put his hand forward and explained, "you've distributed the disadvantages, not one big disadvantage.
So instead of one big disadvantage, you've spread out the disadvantages.
That's what makes it a success so far. That's three disadvantages.
And hands impatiently while confidently holding up his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger to indicate three.
"First, it increases your appetite. The first one is an increase in appetite. You can think of it simply as an easy way to get hungry and a slight increase in magic consumption. Well, my sense is that it's between 10 and 20 percent.
Well, that's about it.
The first one is an orthodox and acceptable type of disadvantage.
Second, increased sleep drive, well, I don't have to explain this one. The uptake is similar.
"I see, this is also fine if you're fighting. .........
Hmmm? to the disadvantages that came up next. And turn your head.
What would come next with this flow, appetite, and desire for sleep?
I'm expecting a third demerit in my mind.
No way, the third disadvantage.
"Oh, that's a no-brainer,
I'm sure you're right," he said with a grin at the thought.
The more you fight, the more these three disadvantages accumulate. Eat, drink and sleep. I thought of a magical sword that is easy for humans to use and this is what I ended up with!
Gahahahahaha and hands laugh, but honestly, I'm not sure it's a good idea as a weapon.
At a glance, the disadvantages are diffused, and it sounds like it's not so bad, but I think the essence is different.
The biggest disadvantage of this demon sword is its reduced ability to take over.
Hunger due to appetite, lack of concentration due to the desire for sleep and s*xual desire, by increasing the three major cravings.
While it may be good for early and instantaneous combat, it may not be suitable for long battles.
Well, it's a much more decent magic sword compared to Hans and the other giants' products: .........
"You don't go crazy, do you?
Well, it's a different story if you're a novice, but still not so bad that you can't cover it. If Jiro uses it, it's almost a no-brainer, isn't it?
With the magic sword, there are no disadvantages to it.
It's a perfect weapon to hold.
You're a little troubled by what Hans has to say, and while you're still in doubt, he grins like a child who's just thought of a prank.
"And hey, you know, maybe the wives will be happy to see you buy it.
Why would Suela and her friends be happy?
"Because.
Maybe this talk is just a sales pitch.
A mineral tree is a tree, a tree is a dark elf, right?
It could be a stepping stone to get Hands to buy other weapons.
"So it's a bloodsucker, you know, a bloodsucker, right?
But the words, ah, I see, and I'm all set to buy.
Then .
You're a good businessman.
I have to say, "Heh heh heh heh, every time.
"Heh heh heh, always.
Gently sheathing it and handing it to Hands, I looked at the price of the sword.
"You made me go over my budget.
That's the merchant.
He smiled at Hands, who was begging for money, and said sarcastically.
Word of the Day
There are many times when others bring the opportunity to tell us that things are different now than they were.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Gahahahahaha and hands laugh, but honestly, I'm not sure it's a good idea as a weapon.
At a glance, the disadvantages are diffused, and it sounds like it's not so bad, but I think the essence is different.
The biggest disadvantage of this demon sword is its reduced ability to take over.
Hunger due to appetite, lack of concentration due to the desire for sleep and s*xual desire, by increasing the three major cravings.
While it may be good for early and instantaneous combat, it may not be suitable for long battles.
Well, it's a much more decent magic sword compared to Hans and the other giants' products: .........
"You don't go crazy, do you?
Well, it's a different story if you're a novice, but still not so bad that you can't cover it. If Jiro uses it, it's almost a no-brainer, isn't it?
With the magic sword, there are no disadvantages to it.
It's a perfect weapon to hold.
You're a little troubled by what Hans has to say, and while you're still in doubt, he grins like a child who's just thought of a prank.
"And hey, you know, maybe the wives will be happy to see you buy it.
Why would Suela and her friends be happy?
"Because.
Maybe this talk is just a sales pitch.
A mineral tree is a tree, a tree is a dark elf, right?
It could be a stepping stone to get Hands to buy other weapons.
"So it's a bloodsucker, you know, a bloodsucker, right?
But the words, ah, I see, and I'm all set to buy.
Then .
You're a good businessman.
I have to say, "Heh heh heh heh, every time.
"Heh heh heh, always.
Gently sheathing it and handing it to Hands, I looked at the price of the sword.
"You made me go over my budget.
That's the merchant.
He smiled at Hands, who was begging for money, and said sarcastically.
Word of the Day
There are many times when others bring the opportunity to tell us that things are different now than they were.
The situation without my main weapon, the mineral tree, is clearly a hindrance to my work.I've learned to fight fighting and magic to be able to fight without weapons, so I'm able to fight as a vanguard or wizard in my main job.But you have to have your main weapon with you if you want to fight well.But what happens if that main weapon comes back within a month, or two months at the latest?Faced with the problem of whether to buy or not to buy, and even if to prepare, how to prepare.Hmmm."Not this one too?"Oh, it doesn't feel right.To sum up, I do not want to compromise on tools, even for a short time.So I came to a familiar store to look for a weapon.However, my partner's mineral tree seems to have gotten a lot better without me noticing, and my budgeted weapon just doesn't seem to fit.It's a pretty good piece of equipment too, huh?Yeah, I don't doubt Hands' word. I think it's a good sword, too. I'm the one to blame.You're going to buy a 10 million dollar budget, a luxury car, thinking that ordinary weapons won't work in the dungeon you're going through now? I came to Hands with the intention of investing that kind of budget in the store.I guess I've been equipped with a sense of luxury.The feeling of holding the hilt, the carefully crafted sword that reflects my face like a mirror, I feel disappointed and quietly hand the sword back to Han's. "I think it'll be better if you adjust it."I think it'll get better with some adjustments, huh?I guess so, huh?After work, after visiting Suela and telling Himik that I'll be late, I'm visiting the Hands store by myself.The purpose is to buy tools for work.When I came here, I told them I came to Han's to buy a sword, they were surprised that I was unusual, and when I explained the situation, they patted me on the back for a job well done.Thanks to that, I was able to go into the store, which was still in the process of closing, and take a closer look at the weapon.But I'm having more trouble finding a replacement than I thought.I wish I could compromise, but my obsessive intuition tells me that this is not the right weapon for me, so I look for another one.I see what you're saying, but if there's nothing else, there's only the magic sword.It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for in the store," he said, rubbing his chin in annoyance.I've removed spears, staffs and other weapons that I don't use, swords, daggers and large swords, and swords of all sizes, from watashi to sword, but I haven't been able to find the right one.The sword I just owned was the last one.From the middle of the search, I had to ignore the budget.In fact, the sword is three times our budget.It's one of Hans's masterpieces.A demon sword, you said it was impossible before.And what remains is a series called the Magic Sword.Commonly known as the playfulness of the giants.A mass of demerits that emphasizes performance and disregards ease of use, with a performance that sounds romantic and is too gentle to use, even the word "peaky" is too gentle.But then it occurred to me that Evvia knows how to use her magic sword."Hands, let me ask you a question."Ah?"How do I master the magic sword?There are no disadvantages, she said.Doesn't that mean there are ways to keep the disadvantages at bay?That prediction seemed to be correct, and she nodded satisfyingly, "There's a spunk," she said.That's spunk.What?I asked him what it was, and he answered with a single word.So I gave him a cold look and said, "What the hell is this guy talking about?"No, really. The demerits of the magic sword are mostly mental ones. So there are many ways to deal with it, such as training your mind or giving it magical powers instead, but the most important thing is to get into it so that your mind doesn't waver.I nodded in agreement with the content of the hands, which explained to me hurriedly that there was not enough explanation in his eyes.I'm sure there are a lot of game-like elements to it, but Himikku's weapon must have been one that required a large amount of magical power.That would be an exception.In fact, that's how we giants make magic swords. You can make a magic sword and still be a master, that's what we know."I see.I suppose that's true.How can I make one if it affects me just by holding it?Having the demon sword in the store means that you can make the demon sword.In other words, those who can make magic swords like Hands and the others are able to endure the demerits of the magic sword with guts.Hmmm, is it hard?Well, it's not easy. We train with our master's magic sword, but there are many people who can't hold it for life if their heart is not strong enough to do so and retire from blacksmithing. I'm sure it's one in ten or even more. To be one of the handful, we are swinging a hammer every day to be one of them."Oh, wow.It takes concentration to make a weapon.You have to hit the hammer exactly where you want it to be and then adjust the force.By doing this, you can train your mind.I honestly admire you for combining work and training.Normally it would be irritating to stretch your chest with a smug look on your face, but you are an experienced craftsman.The pride you carry in your heart doesn't make you feel that way, and you can honestly admire it.Do you want to try it?Well, as long as you can use it better than a poorly made weapon.Yeah, well, you'll be fine.And I guess he was just trying to find the right moment to say it.This way, he starts leading me to the back of the store.Do you have any proof that you're okay?How many years do you think I've been a blacksmith? If you can't measure up to your customers, you're halfway around the world in our circles.Following my weighty steps, I followed in a suit.There was a door next to the counter, and there was a space that could be called another store.It's the first time you've opened this place.What is this place?"You know what? Every weapon in here is a magic sword.What is different from the front store is that they are all lined up in a tightly sealed case to prevent them from being touched easily.But even through the cases, you can feel their presence.Just in this space alone, you can feel the different pressure on your skin.This is a space where each one of these swords gives off a sense of evil."My prediction was that it would be another ten years before you would be able to get in here.Taking out a bunch of metal keys, Hans approaches the case closest to the entrance."Hey, Jiro. Remember the first time you came to my store?"Oh, that's when you were recommended to me by Memoria.And then I took a key out of the lock.That's when I remember my encounter with Hans.Didn't I half-jokingly offer you a magic sword?"Yeah, it's a hell of a performance, but the downside is that it's a bad deal.He offered me the magic sword then, too.I didn't know if he was joking or not, and I remember saying no, feeling afraid for my safety.That was our way of warning you.Open the case and take out a dagger that is probably on display.It is a beautiful blade with a pale blue color, but it has an evil look within its beauty.For a warning, you seem to be enjoying selling it.Seriously, if you're too confident, you'll buy it because you think you're fine. In fact, the magic sword is not a problem at first. Every time you use it, the demon sword will eat away at you and before you know it, it's too late.Gently, he looked at the magic sword presented to him."Does the name of the sword have an ending that lives up to its name?Yes, that's why we tell the magic sword's performance in a funny way. That's why we tell you the performance of the magic sword in a funny way. Funny advice is still advice. And jokingly, if you ask me to be serious, I can tell you to hone your skills and come back later.I see, it's a rational decision with a store ad and a warning. So, Hands, now that you're seriously recommending the magic sword."Oh, have at it.You feel the evil, you feel the danger.But..."Hmm, my first time holding a magic sword, it's surprisingly common.I took the presented dagger in my hand and checked its texture.Because it is called a demon sword, its workmanship is better than what was sold in stores.You can find a number of different types of daggers in the market.Did you feel any discomfort?"There isAnd I called it normal, but I answered Hands' question honestly."Well, it's definitely a magic sword.The brilliance of the blade, its beauty, fascinated me, and the slightest glimmer in my consciousness.The desire to kill, or in this case, the will to fight?It's not that good. That's the sharpest one you'll ever see. It's one of the five sharpest magic swords I've ever made. However, I can't resist the urge to keep that blade open, to continue fighting."We're just waiting for the battle crazies, aren't we?If you don'tThe desire to fight is bubbling up like a musketeer.Lightly wielding a magic sword shaped like a single-edged cutlass, you can feel the sensation that even air is being cut from your fingertips.And that desire.Are you upset?As far as I can see. As far as I can see, a man who is beaten by the demon sword can tell who is better or worse from the moment he holds it. That's because your eyes aren't drawn to the demon sword. You'll be fine.That's good, it's just, well . It's quite a habit to use."That's what a magic sword is,It's perfectly manageable.As a magic sword, it feels like a sports car with a heavy brake pedal and a light accelerator pedal.A sports car that doesn't allow for deceleration and keeps on accelerating.Its limitless acceleration will eventually destroy the driver.How effortlessly you can apply the brake pedal is the key.Yeah, I like that.Want to buy one?I experienced the danger firsthand.But instead of clenching my mouth in frustration or fear, a grin lifted my cheeks.No, let me see the other one. I'd like to see something close to my mineral tree anyway."Ooh, that one.I've decided that I can take a natural approach, and instead of going for it, I follow Hands' back and try out the magic swords he has selected one after another.It's too heavy."Then move on.Long sword demon sword.Self-inflicted wounds are just too much damage.You know how powerful it is?"Reject, a**h*le.The Magic Sword of the One-Handed Sword.Light, but too big."Name it Dragon Slayer!Well, you can cut the dragon's head off with this, but it's not good enough to handle it, dismissed.The Great Sword of Magic, taller than Hanz.That's not a sword, that's a blunt instrument.The shape is the shape of a sword, right?Yeah, but it's not sharp enough and the sword doesn't weigh much. Rejected.A magic sword that looks like a bludgeoning weapon, thought to be in a sheath.Hands happily handed me magic swords one after the other.I'm starting to enjoy it, and I hold it in my hand while Hands explains the magic sword to me."How about this one then!And I think he was amused.He smiled and pulled out a sword from its case, housed in a shiny purple scabbard."Heh! This is one of the best magic swords I've made recently. It's a product I've taken the methods of this world's blacksmithing and forged it to be called Shiko!I thought it was the color of the scabbard to match the name of the sword, but that was not the case.I took it from Hans and slowly pulled it out of its scabbard to reveal a reddish-purple sword.How do you like it? Magic stone of fire and magic stone of water, a product that blends conflicting attributes, and even crawled with the magic of shadow! Not only is it sharp, but it's also an excellent magic medium, excellent at using magic in the three attributes! In addition, it even restores its sharpness by letting you suck its own blood. It's a type of magic sword called a bloodsucking sword!I know what you mean when you say you're fascinated, but I think this sword is exceptional.Lightly wielded, it feels comfortable, the weight is just right, and the sword's pacing is similar to that of a mineral tree.What are the downsides?However, even if it's a good magic sword at this stage, you can't let your guard down until you see the disadvantages.The demerits of the demon sword are many and varied, starting from becoming a battle-crazed, to losing the sense of existence, to becoming s*xually aroused, and so on.Basically, these demerits are all related to the self-consciousness, but what are the demerits?"That demon sword, or as they say in this country, a demon sword? Either way, we tried something new in making it."New Attempt?Oh, we tried to boost performance by making a single disadvantage, but I thought we could reduce the disadvantages and increase performance by imposing multiple disadvantages.Oh.Before you hear what it says, well, wait," Hands put his hand forward and explained, "you've distributed the disadvantages, not one big disadvantage.So instead of one big disadvantage, you've spread out the disadvantages.That's what makes it a success so far. That's three disadvantages.And hands impatiently while confidently holding up his index finger, middle finger, and ring finger to indicate three."First, it increases your appetite. The first one is an increase in appetite. You can think of it simply as an easy way to get hungry and a slight increase in magic consumption. Well, my sense is that it's between 10 and 20 percent.Well, that's about it.The first one is an orthodox and acceptable type of disadvantage.Second, increased sleep drive, well, I don't have to explain this one. The uptake is similar."I see, this is also fine if you're fighting. .........Hmmm? to the disadvantages that came up next. And turn your head.What would come next with this flow, appetite, and desire for sleep?I'm expecting a third demerit in my mind.No way, the third disadvantage."Oh, that's a no-brainer,I'm sure you're right," he said with a grin at the thought.The more you fight, the more these three disadvantages accumulate. Eat, drink and sleep. I thought of a magical sword that is easy for humans to use and this is what I ended up with!Gahahahahaha and hands laugh, but honestly, I'm not sure it's a good idea as a weapon.At a glance, the disadvantages are diffused, and it sounds like it's not so bad, but I think the essence is different.The biggest disadvantage of this demon sword is its reduced ability to take over.Hunger due to appetite, lack of concentration due to the desire for sleep and s*xual desire, by increasing the three major cravings.While it may be good for early and instantaneous combat, it may not be suitable for long battles.Well, it's a much more decent magic sword compared to Hans and the other giants' products: ........."You don't go crazy, do you?Well, it's a different story if you're a novice, but still not so bad that you can't cover it.
