Chapter 55 (1/2)

Translator: Saitamsensei Editor:Ryunakama

The day after completing Arti's sword, in other words, the first day of academy cla.s.ses.

After sending Saria and RunRun to the nursery, I head towards the cla.s.sroom together with s.h.i.+ro and Fluffy.

Basically, I wanted to skip cla.s.ses today.

However, during the guidance at the entrance ceremony, we were told to attend the first week of homeroom.

And today was the very first day of cla.s.ses and also the first week of homeroom.

「Good morning, Will! The cla.s.ses begin today」

「Yeah, are you looking forward to it, Rosetta?」

「Yes, I am! Are you not looking forward to it, Will?」

「Well, I'm not really sure」

It is quite difficult to tell Rosetta, who is super motivated, that I was trying to skip cla.s.ses.

「I am looking forward to it!」Tina said.

「Yea, me too」Rosetta agreed.

「Yes!」

Rosetta and Tina were smiling.

Both of them seemed to be diligent in taking the cla.s.ses.

「Rosetta, which cla.s.ses are you planning to take?」

「Let's see, I plan on the close quarter combat cla.s.sー」

Rosetta and Tina were discussing about that.

They might be hoping to take the same cla.s.s.

The two have been reading through the available syllabus table all week long, apparently.

I, on the other hand, had even forgotten about the existence of the syllabus table.

「Which cla.s.ses do you plan to take, Will?」

I can't just tell them I wanted to skip cla.s.ses.

However, it doesn't really matter. They would find out soon enough anyways.

I have no other choice but to tell the truth.

「…I plan to take the end-of-semester exam properly」

「…I see, as expected of Will」

「I see, if it's Will, you can get through with that alone」

Tina and Rosetta seemed to have understood.

A short while later, the homeroom began.

The homeroom today simply conveyed basic important points.

Once the homeroom ends, everyone headed towards their own cla.s.ses.

By the way, Arti had already skipped the very first homeroom itself.

I headed back to my dorm room without taking the cla.s.ses, in order to create weapons.

「I should… focus on armours too」

Armour requires much more materials than weapons.

There are also many other aspects to be considered when creating armour.

It should not inhibit movements, and has to guarantee solid defence.

「Enhancing armours bought from a store would suffice for now」

For now, let's focus on creating weapons.

While thinking that, I continued with weapon creation.

Since I had already created a short sword, I decided to create a one-handed long sword.

After completing the one-handed long sword, I also wish to create a two-handed sword, axe, lance, bow and such.

I am specialized in handling all sorts of weapons. It is only limited by my imagination.

If I could make fine weapons, I would like to give them to Rosetta and Tina too.

Weapon production might be something that comes naturally to me.

After defeating the Beast of Calamity, I would like to cease being a mage, and take on blacksmithing.
