The Only Daughter of Japan’s Greatest Blacksmith, Blacksmithing in VRMMO

Chapter 66

Cain’s Side

I had been dazed since that time I became a Demon. I needed to prepare myself. The other players who were friends of mine are still around. At any rate, the ones who were there would spread the word, and they would just think that I had evolved.

But the NPCs are different.

What would you think if I, who had been a human, suddenly became a demon, a subhuman? There are many things to think about, but the biggest fear of all is whether or not they will change their attitude.

A person who was treating you normally suddenly becomes distant, or a person who was nice to you suddenly tries to exclude you…

So I went outside the city to calm myself down and level up.

Here’s the result.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

You might think that raising it by 8 levels is enough, but this won’t do at all.

I’m already at a total of level 48 combined with my evolution, so it’s no surprise, but I’m getting a little impatient.

I’ve been working on my skills, so I’m going to try to win the tournament today.

And today.

The event begins.

『This time, the battle is between Cain-san, who is now a Demon, and Mao-san, the only Monster player in this tournament! !』

I get a huge cheer the moment I enter the arena.

「You must be Cain-san. I’m looking forward to fight you」

「Ah」

A Monster player named Mao, who was about two heads taller than me (178cm), came in from the opposite entrance.

He is a Monster with two black horns and eyes of the same color. On his back was a two-handed axe that was slung to the ground.

『Let’s begin! !』

「Uraa! ! !」

「Fun! !」

The first to attack came from Mao. He swung his two-handed axe down with pride.

――Gakin…… Byuoooooo

I blocked it with the Kragan sword that Ayane had made for me. However, after the sound of metal clashing against metal, the resulting wind pressure was incredible.

「Sei! ! Ora! !」

「Guu! !」

I returned the blow as I caught it and kicked him in his unprotected stomach.

「《Axe Bomber》!」

「I’m not gonna eat that! ! Rraa! !」

―――Gyiiiiin! ! !

I dodged the axe that came at me horizontally and then launched it from the side with my greatsword. And just like that…

「―― 《Ocean Blade》! !」

「Haa! ?」

The attack that followed was 20 meters long, far longer than the length of the sword, which surprised even Mao.

『Ootto! ! There it is, the weapon skill! ! The weapon skill of the great sword Ayane-san built, the Kragan Sword, which lies ahead of us, is a strong skill in general! ! !』

『That’s right. I’ve never seen it before, but it’s just as powerful as they say!』

『It’s endorsed by Brakija-san!』

『───』

I use only 1/10th of the water I am covered with to fire at my opponent, and then I send another one. Repeating this, the water blade flies to Mao 10 times. This is also a technique that can only be done through training.

Even though it’s only 1 meter long, it’s still a water blade. If you’re not careful, you’ll take a lot of damage.

「Oraaaaaa! ! !」

Understanding this, Mao spun the axe in front of him, counteracting.

「I didn’t know you had such skills! Then I’ll have to respond as well! ―― 《Madness》!」

「! ?」

――Biki… Bikibiki…

Mao’s body began to expand exponentially. The original height difference between the two of us had become even further apart, and now the difference was about 3 meters.

『What a surprise! ! ! ! This is a physical enhancement skill that is limited to the higher-ranking race of monsters, the Demons! ! Madness has been activateddd! ! ! This is a big problem for Cain-san! ! !』

『Fumu. Isn’t this a bit dangerous, Cain?』

『Huh? Aren’t you going to say that’s not necessarily the case?』

『There’s not much information about Cain… I guess I’m not a good informant……』

『N- No, that’s not true! Everyone has been helped by Brakija-san! That’s all that matters!』

『R- Really?』

『That’s right! !』

『A- All right, all right. Back to the action!』

『Yes!』

『―』

「Now for the real deal」

And so the match moved to its final stages.
