`Well... well, well,Come on, I can't believe they're showing off just because they can enjoy drinking... what a bunch of them.It's not as good as a drinker'said he.

　On his way out of the guild to Pamidor's workshop, Brasso was still muttering.Ray and Fluorocarbons are gazing at the scene, and Seto is walking around humbly after the party.
　The reason Seto was in such a good mood was simply that the number of adventurers around the guild naturally increased due to his visit to the guild during the evening, when there were many adventurers.This means that the number of people who feed Seto increased...and as a result, Seto was able to eat a lot while waiting for the Rei to come out.
　Some adventurers were sub-magic and tried to attack Seto by drawing a sword, saying it was dangerous to put monsters into the city to defeat, but with a blow from Seto's tail, he was beaten, kicked and kicked out of the city by adventurers who were feeding him.
　and the first to attack the adventurer was a female adventurer, the leader of a burning wind.
　In such a good mood, Seto rubs his face against Ray's back, who is walking in front of him with a purring voice.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

　Ray also caresses Seto on the head and talks to Fluorocarbons walking next to him.

"And Fluorocarbons. Where is his workshop called Pamidor? I only know it's near the library."
"Oh, it's not such a difficult place to understand.Here, there."

　Fluorocarbons glanced at the workshop on the side of the main street that led to the library.It is certainly a small workshop, but the location not far from the main street is not bad.
　Brasso, who had not yet been able to drink, opened the door and called out to such a workshop, looking a little displeased.

"Is there a Pamidor?"
"Oh? At this hour.It's almost time for the end of the business!"

　As soon as I opened the studio door and called to him, he replied with a loud rant.While listening to the rant, Brasso and Fluorocarbons enter the studio without any particular concern.
　As usual, Seto lies a little further away from the studio, and Ray follows the Brassos into the studio.
　The first thing I felt when I entered the workshop was the intense enthusiasm.The blacksmith's shop itself is located in the back of the shop, and the heat from the shop is transmitted to the vicinity of the entrance to the shop.

"Nothing like this, and I'm almost done with my work today."

　Pamidor, seeing him still faintly displeased, relaxes his expression.
　Looking at him, he's probably in his thirties.Even a warrior has muscles that can be believed to be, and his height, combined with his height, highlights his presence.and there was not a hair growing on his head, which further emphasized Pamidor's strong face.
　It was not because of Ray's keen observation that he noticed the slight looseness of his expression, but because the slight looseness of his expression had eased the somewhat harsh atmosphere of the man.
　and yet his features, combined with the atmosphere of Pamidor, are almost as deadly as ever.If you encounter them in a deserted place at night, they will surely scream and escape.

"Oh, it's Brasso, if you think it's Brasso.Fluorocarbons and... what about that little boy?"
"It's Ray. He helped me with Harpy's request.It seemed difficult to deal with Harpy in the sky with me."
"... Ray?"

　Pamidor, faintly frowning at the name, shook his head and opened his mouth with a serious expression.

"And now that you're here, are you done with Harpy's case, the mine?"His expression, which grips the shoulders of his blasso, seems more like a thief than a blacksmith... than a bandit who dominates the mountain or a pirate who dominates the sea.
　However, he nods with an unconcerned face, knowing very well what kind of personality the man named Pamidor has in front of him, whether it be Brasso or Fluorocarbons.

"There is no problem with Harpy.The mines will probably be reopened soon."
"...that sounds like something is stuck in your back teeth.What happened?"
"There was one, or there was one, or there was one, or there was one, or there was one.Ray, please."

　Ray nods to Brasso's words and takes more than one flame ore out of the mistling.Seeing the flaming ore, Pamidor looks breathlessly at the magical metal.Despite the fact that he saw the item box, all he could see was the flame ore that Ray was holding.

「…………」

　I wonder if I've been staring at him for a minute.but he looked intently and earnestly... no, he observed it, and then he spoke.

"Flame ore?"
"Well, that's why I went to the lord's house."
"The lord's house?"
"Well, in fact, this flaming ore... the magic of the flame used by Ray there has worked on it, and it has been newly produced in the cave where Harpy was nesting."
"...I see. So it hasn't been long since it was made."

　While nodding to Blaso's words, Pamidor's gaze turns to Ray.
　Ray frowns at Ray's deep-seated gaze, but his gaze soon disappeared and he smirks and slaps him on the shoulder.

"You're still a priest, and you're very determined not to be afraid of my face.I like it."
"... well, it's quite unusual that you should like Pamidor at first sight."

　Pamidor smiled at Fluorocarbons' somewhat impressive words.

"Actually, I heard about Ray a little while ago.Did you save my priest a little while ago?"
"Oh, it's about Kumito said.
"Yes, I've been talking about you since then.I heard you said you'd stop by sometime, but I was looking forward to it.I'm out for a while now, but I should be back soon, so please wait for me."

　Rei nods in a small way.

"And what did you come to this workshop for today? If you wanted to sell this flame ore, you'd welcome it. It was Ray.Just put the flame ore on the work desk."
"All right,"

　Following the instructions, Ray places the flame ore on a nearby work desk, and Pamidor opens his mouth looking at the flame ore in love.

"And do you mean you're going to sell it to me.
"Well, first of all, it's an appraisal.If I were to buy it, how much would it cost?"
"Well, yes.If you think of it as a flammable ore -- five white -- three white and five gold."

　Fluorocarbons are wide-eyed by the unexpected price, but Brasso gasps back to Pamidor.

"Isn't it too much of a rip-off? I think it's worth about eight white gold coins according to the test of the magistrate.""It was certainly that much before the case of Harpy came to light, but now, as you know, there is a genuine shortage of iron.As the price is higher there, the price of magical metals like flame ore is falling.And..."

　Pamidor starts to say something and looks at Ray for a moment, but immediately shakes his head and returns to appraising the flame ore.
　Brasso looks mystified at the scene, but the story soon returns to flame ore.

"I have no complaints about the purity.The magic of fire permeates into the air.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"Oh, it was amazing.I made ten fireballs with heat that rapidly increased the ambient temperature and threw them into the cave."

　Pamidor raised his eyebrows at the words of Fluorocarbons muttering, recalling the scene he had seen.
　Blacksmiths use fire to make weapons and protective equipment.in other words, he is a kind of specialist in fire.For Pamidor, who was reputed to be a good blacksmith, I could understand how powerful Ray's magic was.What's more...

"You fired 10 fireballs of that heat into the cave, and then the fireballs exploded in a chain, and there was no place for the heat to escape... Oh, I see. That's why we produced this much flame ore."

　The fact is that there was another cave outlet, so the heat was not contained in the cave as much as Pamidor had imagined, but the fire was still beyond Pamidor's expectations.It was a magic that Ray could only release if he had an extraordinary amount of magic.

"... well, don't you really want to sell this to me.

　Pamidor tells me this while looking at the fire ore, but Brasso shakes his head slightly.

"Well, actually, Ray is asking for this flamethole.He says he will pay one-third of the purchase price he has made to him and Fluorocarbons."
"You don't seem to have any skills in blacksmithing... Why do you want this again?"

　Pamidor glares at Ray as if he wouldn't forgive him with a half-hearted answer, but he doesn't seem to feel any particular pressure.

"I only cleared up my big request a little while ago, and I am not particularly pressed for money now."In the future, I may need magic items for some reason, so I honestly want to keep the materials that I think are necessary in the near future."""
「……」

　Pamidor looked at Ray, but after about a minute he exhaled in amazement.

"Oh, he's a priest who can see me straight.You've got a lot of nerve."

　He must have understood his strong face.With a smile on his mouth, he pats Ray hard on the shoulder.

"Just... Ray, did you offend any great man?"
"What?"

　Ray asks Pamidor, who suddenly changed his story, unconsciously.
　It's not that I don't know.for it could not have been more.

"To tell you the truth, yesterday... or the day before yesterday?"I got a strange call.Perhaps an adventurer named Ray may come directly to the blacksmith's workshop to repair or buy weapons, so don't make a deal.If it is discovered that he has done business with Ray, it is threatened that he will not be able to do business with an arms dealer in the city of Gilm."

　Notification from the arms dealer was enough to make it clear who gave the order.Ray can only think of one person to come up with such a wildly.Give me the magic item you have a few days ago.and the old man, who had given high pressure orders to hand over Seto.

"Bornter,"
"Now that you mention it, you said it at the lord's house,"

　Fluorocarbons frown lightly and open their mouths.

"Well, that's all I said there.I thought I had threatened him enough, but I never thought he'd come to me instead of directly.""It's a common practice as the president of the Azot Chamber of Commerce.Have you ever heard of an adventurer who has had a similar experience in angering Bornter before?"

　The words of Fluorocarbons remind me of a story I heard from a Miredog.

"Now that you mention it, I heard it from a Mire Dog in a scorching wind,"
"You're quite broad-minded, aren't you?"Well, that's what I'm saying anyway.I don't think I'll be able to buy any more weapons from now on, for I offended him. What shall I do?"
"...what shall I do now?"To be honest, I don't have much trouble."
"What?"

　Feeling that not only Fluorocarbons but also the eyes of Brasso and Pamidor are on the spot, Ray takes the death size out of the mystery ring and explains.

"As you know, my main weapon is this death size."
"...this is..."

　Pamidor, who saw Death Size for the first time, exclaims at its high level of perfection as a magic item.

"""This death size is supposed to be used through magic, so you don't need much maintenance."Other weapons I use are spears for throwing, or knives for peeling off materials."

　He also told me that there was a good deal of stock in the mistling.
