Even in the sword-wielding city, there are gaps in technological development to fill the gaps in the lowest-level combat force. Sakurajima Mai and Kato Megumi are also responsible for manual labor to earn money.

'Short-term progress is steady. What I need to do now is improve my capabilities, attract more talent, and transform existing idle resources into usable strength.'

'Also… regarding the layout of the heretics at the distillery, some smaller heretics could be allowed to experience life on the surface… Later, they could be summoned directly to the surface using a 'login' method.'

Thinking about it, he took stock of the few materials that had recently fallen into his possession...

[The Tree Dragon's Gem], find an opportunity to make a wand for Lefia. That child is already a high-level lv2, almost lv3. She needs a suitable weapon.

and also……

【Goliath's Hard Leather】This material has already been forged by Cecil, but without the "forging" attribute, it cannot be enchanted with special modifiers. Now that I have "Gold Engraving", I might be able to try combining it with other materials for a simple enchantment.

【Kaino's Fur】This is a drop from the Lightning Goblin, the short sword with superconducting magic. I used it to make a magic gun for Bai, and the fur hasn't been used yet. I could consider smelting and refining it to add lightning to the Thunder Hammer V.005 of the Defiant Guardian.

Shaga continued searching the warehouse:

The item, the Subspecies Black Dragon Scale, after having its overflowing magic power dealt with and sealed, also became part of the Astrea Familia.

"Well, perhaps we can leave this to Yuta after he completes his novice trial and becomes a qualified adventurer."

After being granted a blessing by a temporary player, Shaka was able to open a door to the everyday world, and the goddess also had their respective stats inscribed on parchment.

Therefore, there's no need to waste time guessing the chanting text anymore.

And Yuta Togashi's unique magic.

【The End - Dark Dragon】

• Fire/Dragon's Breath Magic.

• It fires purple flames from its right arm; these flames have a "devouring" property.

(Devour: Allows you to prey on defeated dragons, imbuing your flames with the dragon's breath attribute.)

• Enhances damage against dragon species beyond the normal range.

Chant: May you be completely consumed by the dark flames.

Skill Combination:

【Dragon Hunter - Setsuna】

• When facing dragons, all attributes are enhanced by a super domain.

……

"Two super-level skills against dragons, directly two levels higher... If he has time to grow, he should become the main force in the battle against the black dragon. I'm starting to doubt if he's even the protagonist."

"But it only improves dragons. In dungeons... it only has a significant effect in the Dragon Pot on the 50th floor. In the early stages, there are still very few dragon monsters."

"And, could the Dragon Hunter skill have popped up because of playing Monster Hunter? Setsuna seems to be Yuuta's ID..."

Shaga once again focused her gaze on the [subspecies black dragon scales].

"It could be made into something like gloves that suit Yuuta's use of fire and add 'Dragon-type' damage. With Pinochue's help, it's not too difficult."

As for other common materials, such as the Minotaur's horn, the Burgher's claws, and the mammoth's tusks...

Shaga plans to hand over these materials, along with some of the upcoming "super-hard metal," to Cecil for forging.

A blacksmith's promotion is mostly attributed to creating "works" that surpass his skill level, thereby achieving great success.

Simply put, adventurers who focus on daily life will also gain "great achievements" when they create new items.

The reason why Shaga advanced to level 2 so quickly was partly due to the bonus from "My Thinking Power".

However, this bonus is not so obvious due to the various advantages that Shaga has gained from fighting opponents of higher levels.

With so many high-level materials to practice with, Cecil's stats will rise accordingly. Level up to lv2 as soon as possible and obtain "Forging".

"It is said that the blacksmiths of Gubniu were exhausted to the point of collapse while forging the Great Cut. Hmm... let's have a moment of silence for Cecil. For the sake of the goddess's wish, you'd better work hard."

After completing all the records, Xia Jia put down his pen and posted the completed notes on the office wall to remind himself not to forget the general direction.

"This is all my hard work."

Xia Jia clapped her hands, put her hands on her hips with satisfaction, and admired the results of her nearly two months of work.

A moment later, Shaga paused slightly, his summoning magic issuing a warning. A familiar figure appeared outside the clan's stronghold.

"What a rare guest." Xia Jia smiled slightly. "Perfect timing, I also need to talk to her about something."

……

The Mansion of Stardust.

The territory is now much larger than the original small villa. After exchanging the real estate of the Soma clan with Finn, it has a usable land area of ​​about 2 square meters, roughly the size of two training grounds.

This is far inferior to Freya's "Battlefield Plain." After all, that was a genuine plain, the kind where horses could run freely.

The other buildings in the camp have not yet been completed; only the outermost layer is surrounded by a wall made of black moonstone.

Meanwhile, at the gate outside the garrison.

Fels stared at the two Minotaur guarding the gate, lost in thought.

I know your clan is just starting out and your finances are probably tight, but aren't you afraid of being reported by your neighbors for using monsters to guard the gate?

Oh, you've bought up all the land around here too, that's alright then.

Fels remained silent, wondering how he could go and knock on the door.

Taking down two minotaurs seems rather impolite. But getting too close risks getting attacked…

But her concerns were quickly dispelled.

The two Minotaur slowly pushed open the metal gate, making way for Fels to enter.

……

A moment later, she passed through the ruins of the houses that had been demolished by the monsters and arrived at the Stardust Mansion, which was still well preserved in the center.

Xia Jia was already waiting at the door with her arms crossed.

"What a rare guest! What brings our 'Great Sage' here?"

“I am merely a ‘fool’,” Fels humbly retorted.

The two entered the room and sat down.

Xia Jia snapped his fingers, and a spatial portal slowly opened on the table, then slowly rose up.

Two wine glasses were ejected from the doorway, followed by a bottle of red wine and a soft drink.

"Please feel free to do as you please..." Xia Jia gestured.

Fels shook her head, her tone serious: "I'm here on a very important matter. I wonder what Commander Xia thinks of the heretic?"

Chapter 220 I have a deal worth hundreds of millions!

In my opinion, you should ask Yuanfang about this.

Xia Jia thought to herself, but said calmly:

"May I ask what guidance you, sage?"

Fels pondered, "Since Commander Xia has been in contact with the 'Heretics,' he should know about the guild... or rather, Uranus's relationship with those children."

“I know,” Xia Jia nodded.

Fels sighed: "We've been in contact with the heretics for 12 years, helping them change their living conditions. You should know their long-cherished wish."

Because Fels's state was infinitely close to that of a living being, and his relationship with the Heretic was extremely close, his friendship with the Heretic was more important than Uranus's commission.

Xia Jia said in a serious tone:

"I'm helping them fulfill their wishes. Whether it's the guards of the clan, the 'delivery riders'... oh, the beige knights, I'm gradually getting people used to the appearance of distinctive monsters around them."

“Monsters don’t wear clothes or talk, that’s common sense. So a monster that can talk and wears the emblem of justice belongs to the Astrea Familia, and is an ally of justice.”

Xia Jia took a sip of iced cola and continued:

"I'm instilling this concept in the city's residents. And I'm also serializing novels where people fight alongside monsters. Hmm... this is called cultural invasion."

There are also many weird uncles in this world who are like "Gardedor is my wife", and they actually take action.

Otherwise, Dix's business wouldn't be good enough to cover the costs of building the maze.

There are still drawbacks, but Shaka chose a relatively few and easily achievable bill, giving the heretics a helping hand.

"Their problems are very difficult, and this is all I can do for now. I can only try to change them gradually and subtly."

Fels nodded with satisfaction: "The purpose of my visit is actually to confirm your attitude towards the heretics. If Lady Astraea can vouch for them, the heretics' situation will be much better."

Secondly, I hope you can attend the "Monster Festival" two months from now. In fact, Ganesha is another god who helps those children, just like you. I hope you can cooperate with each other then.”

Two months...that's a long way off.

Shaga hesitated and did not fully agree:

"Lady Astraea won't be showing herself for the time being; I won't waste the goddess's reputation on something like this so easily. But I will participate in the 'Monster Festival.' Is Shakti my contact?"

"Yes."

Fels was somewhat disappointed. But she also knew that even Ganesha, the ruler of the people, wouldn't dare openly declare that he was protecting monsters. How could the newly reactivated Astrea Familia possibly step forward?
