Nevertheless, the 『Red Lance』 that I modified rather than creating from scratch might be strong enough as practical weapon.
『Red Lance』： Created by modifying Hayama-kun's prized iron lance, this lance with fire attribute was crafted by using my 『Red Knife』 as the model. The spear tip was made from light iron that was infused with magical power of fire, the firelight iron. The shaft was coated with paint made from powdered firelight stone and etched with goma style magic formulae. It could be generated and launched as a fireball when mana flows through it.
Honestly speaking, its specs surpassed even the Red Knife with its etched spellwork that controlled mana. However, it was a far cry from the weapon crafted by Takanashi when she was serious.
While I was willing to settle for its current performance, I could see room for improvements in the future.
「Look, don't just look at it, test it for now.」
「Oh right, almost forget about it.」
The next item I prepared for Hayama-kun was a one handed green sword. It was short for a long sword, yet long for a short sword. This curved sword with strange length was of course made from the scythe of mantis knight.
「Let's goooooo… Heyah!」
Hayama-kun raised a war cry as he swung his sword, yet his posture was unsteady.
With a sharp cracking sound, a faint scratch etched on the wall that had already scorched the mark.
「Wooow… Its sharpness is awesome!」
Yup, it turned out just as I expected since I had already done my experiment with the air launcher. As such, I managed to fine tune it pretty well. It felt like it had just invoked 『Air Sagitta(Wind Arrow)』.
「Since the range is short, it's suitable for narrow and confined space where spear can't be used. This is something like sub-weapon.」
Since a single knife didn't feel reliable enough, I made another enchanted weapon for him in case he accidentally dropped a red lance during the battle.
「This fella can easily decapitate goma. Rather, what is the name again?」
「Well, since I haven't come up with a name, feel free to think a name for it, Hayama-kun.」
「Ooh, it turns out you know me well enough to entrust me to name it. All right then, this fella's name is…」
『Reppu Kamakirimaru』: A wind sword forged from mantis knight's scythe and windlight iron, and etched in the same way as the red spear using the powder of windlight stone. As a side note, I wouldn't let Hayama-kun name an item from now on due to his hazardous naming sense.
「Thank you very much, Momokawa. With this I won't pull your leg!」
「You might acquire new skill if you keep fighting, that's why I've a high hopes for you, Hayama-kun.」
「Yes, leave it to me, Relight the 『Spiritualist』!」
「Depart immediately, I'll leave today's hunt to you.」
Today's goal was to catch salmon-like freshwater fish that had become Hayama-kun's main diet for the past week.
Since Kinako seemed to be able to catch a lot of them, we could expect a huge haul this time. I mean, having only meat could be tiresome sometimes.
「Aren't you going to come with us, Momokawa?」
「Randou-san and I are going to focus on creating weapons and preparing food for today. Since I'll assign Rem as your escort, there should be no problem for scouting the vicinity.」
「Sure thing, then I'll go catch some salmon since there's a lot of them.」
「Don't underestimate your opponent even if you have a new weapon.」
「Got it, I'm one of the survivalists in this forest too. I've even met this super dangerous-looking lizard.」
Yup, he wasn't the kind of idiot who would pick a fight with a salamander. He wasn't that kind of troublemaker.
「Ah, wait a second, Hayama-kun. Just in case, take this with you.」
The item I passed was Sakura-chan's cantera.
「Yes. The light source is the light spirit.」
「I see, no wonder it's filled with numerous glowing stickmen.」
「That's how the spirit’s appearance is. Moreover, I don't even need this, I'll return properly in the evening.」
「This is for an emergency, and more importantly, I want you, Hayama-kun the spiritualist, to try this lantern imbued with light spirit. If possible, I want you to be able to use flash for distraction.」
「I see… I'll try it then.」
「Please do so. And since it's made by Sakura-chan, be careful to not break it.」
「Eh, Sakura-chan? Are you referring to Souma Sakura? Wait a second, what are you calling her again?」
「Ooi! What's your relationship with her, Momokawa~!」 ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novᴇlfire.net
Since it sounded like a pain in the ass, I would leave that matter to his imagination.
I saw off Hayama-kun party who went fishing while ignoring his question.
Once his figure vanished in the forest, Randou-san spoke.
「So, what are you going to do with just the two of us?」
「Secret story that I can't let Hayama-kun hear.」
「Humph, does that mean you had this kind of secret talk with Futaba back in the School Tower too?」
「I have to lay some groundwork since it's a community of 18 people, after all.」
「Are you doubting Hayama?」
「The thing i want to tell you is related to that.」
「Fine, I'm all ears.」
Randou-san took my hand while smiling coquettishly.
Damn that made my heart skip a beat.
「I thought you're going to flip the table in anger when I asked you out for a secret talk.」
「I'm happy to know that you have that much trust in me.」
I've always trusted Randou-san… However, unlike with Mei-chan, I tried not to show my sneaky and cowardly side in front of her.
Rather than not trusting her, it was akin to me drawing a line.
However, I had no choice but to show her my cunning side now.
「Because Randou-san is the only one willing to escape with me. That's why I'll entrust my back to you.」
「Geez, don't say something like that with a serious face, it's kind of embarrassing.」
I should be the one to feel embarrassed for being hugged tightly .
Wa-Wait a second. Could it be that we were creating a nice atmosphere? Stop, any more than this, my brain is gonna experience a meltdown due to being sandwiched by Randou-san's valley.
