Frontiers ~Chronicles of Bucket-san's Detailed Pioneering~ Chapter 10 part2

Since I made new tools, I’m going to do『Smithing』right away.

It will take some time with 4★『Copper ingot』and『Smithing Arts/Lv15/Extraction･Improved』, but mass production is possible.

Next time, I expect to improve the performance of the『Bucket helm』which is my trademark with the 4★『Copper ingot』and new tools.

Although I say that, it’s extremely simple, I will make more to popularize it further, so it will become a recipe soon.

Kankan, kankan, kankan, kankan.

It’s possible to acquire new『Arts』just like『Molding』and『Extraction』which would make the work easier, but『Arts』is difficult to acquire as they can be acquired only at fixed levels.
There was no information about the『Molding･Improved』in the beta test, and it’s probably not possible to acquire unless you’re at a fairly high level.

The completed『Copper Bucket Helm』is――

＝＝＝＝

Head/Heavy/4★/DEF+7/Durability Enhancement･Slight/Durability 60
＝＝＝＝

Unexpectedly, on top of being 4★, it also has an『Option』.

It’s a wonderful existence that skyrockets the value of equipment especially when suitable effect matches with the equipment.

Now then, if you ask me, this time’s『Durability Enhancement･Slight』is not half bad.

Therefore, my evaluation is not half bad.

By the way, the description attached at the end of the『Option』is the quality of the effect, and ‘Slight’ represents the lowest quality.
Nevertheless, the durability of the 3★ is 40, so it increased by 1.5 times. Well, it actually is not multiplication, but it seems to add a fixed value.

At any rate, it’s my first『Option Item』!

I will keep going hard like this!

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

From now on, I will live as the manufacturer of『Option Items』in the brilliant world of【Frontiers】…… there was a time when I thought such.

The conclusion I came to is that『Option』effects are not reliable.

Ah don’t, it’s not like I have forgotten.

After triumphantly making producing the『Copper Bucket Helm』, I made another three from which two were 4★.

Incidentally, in the case of armor, the performance doesn’t improve equally with rank.

Anyhow, the merit is the improved success rate of items enhanced with rare effects.
At the beginning of the early stages, such rare items can’t be obtained by most people, and there are nearly no people who are not using the lowest-ranking heavy bronze armor.

By the way, the is heavy armor and light armor, the heavy armor is made from metals and have relatively higher DEF.

The defense system skills are also separated to these two kinds, giving benefits such as increased defensive power depending on the equipped armor.

That being the case, since I can now make 4★ frequently, let’s keep on furiously striking and hope for『Option』.

Of course, there might have been an update or perhaps a lack of verification, so I can’t be negligent.

「Give me『Option』~ Give me『Option』~」I process the materials while chanting.

When using corresponding『Arts』at the timing described in the recipe, the time will shorten further, and improvement in the rank could be seen, but I’m afraid that my『Leather』leather skill Lv is too low, so it won’t happen.

After making『Lizard hide』in a blink of an eye, I make『Copper Longsword』next.

It’s classic, isn’t it? I prefer swords over axes. Longswords are especially cool, right?
Knights are extremely cool.

I wonder whether my passionate pathos has been understood.
The article I made is――

＝＝＝＝

Longsword/4★/ATK+16/Attack Enhancement･Slight/Durability 80
＝＝＝＝

Here it comes!

Furthermore, it’s the considerably valuable for weapons,『Attack Enhancement』!
Precisely top five『Option』for weapons!

I still don’t know the market price of the『Durability Enhancement･Slight』that’s on the『Copper Bucket Helm』, but this one was made according to a recipe, so there’s market price information.

This is quite delicious.
As expected『Option』…… is『Option』the key…… gufufu.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

The magical power of『Option』is incredible.

Because of the exploding tension of『Attack Enhancement･Slight』on the『Copper Longsword』, I made another four『Copper Longsword』.

All of those had no『Option』.

Even two of them were 3★ and two 4★. I knew, you know?

One more. The next one. It will come next time! as a result of keeping on producing, my mass produced『Copper ingot』nearly disappeared.

In the current situation, 3★ and 4★ will sell for the same price because there’s no『Option』though.

The problem is this『Copper Longsword』with『Attack Enhancement･Slight』, isn’t it?

But, now that I finally remembered, there’s a person using『Copper Longsword』in my friend list, isn’t there?

I seem to have worried him with the stupid incident too, so let’s toss him a『Mail』as an apology.

I send a『Mail』to Rush-san and promtply use the rest of the『Copper ingot』since my tension returned to normal levels.

By the way, I’m changing the subject, but are you aware of the『Greed Sensor』?

There’s a probability, and that probability naturally decreases for good items.

That is the『Greed Sensor』.

The invisible hand of God is not actually manipulating the probability, but it’s God’s prank caused by a random number of probabilities.
However, from time to time, the existence of the『Greed Sensor』will appear too often, so it’s God’s prank. Curse you.

But, it’s not like there’s no way to deal with it.
It’s a kind of superstition, but it’s said to be effective as far as widely circulated as a coping strategy――the so-called『Be innocent』.

Well, in other words, what do I want to say is――

＝＝＝＝

Accessory/4★/DEF+1/Durability Enhancement･Slight/Durability 25
＝＝＝＝

＝＝＝＝

Accessory/4★/DEF+1 MATK+7/Magic Attack Enhancement･Slight/Durability 10
＝＝＝＝

Both of the『Copper Rings』made with the remaining『Copper ingot』have『Option』on it~!

Well, on one hand, an accessory with『Durability Enhancement･Slight』is quite pointless, but the other one with the『Magic Attack Enhancement･Slight』will probably make magic using pioneers salivate.

Even though the『Copper Longsword』with『Attack Enhancement･Slight』increases the ATK only by 2, the『Copper Ring』with『Magic Attack Enhancement･Slight』increases MATK by 7.

In other words, won’t this yield me quite a lot of money?

No, it might be simply because my range of activities is too narrow, but this makes my expectations high.

Because asking would be the fastest if not understanding, I promptly send『Mail』to my Cousin-sama.
How much will it be~ I’m so looking forward to it~

After that, I immediately got a reply from Rush-san saying that he wants to buy it by all means, so I start selling in front of the【Rental production facility】where we are supposed to meet.

Rush-san was hesitating a little, but he accepted and paid only for the difference when I told him to help me if something happens in the future.
Easy.

Although it should have been used, the durability was not reduced, so when I asked, he was apparently planning to sell it, so he had it repaired at the store. The price decreases with the decrease in durability, after all.

It’s unfortunate that my environment doesn’t allow me to stretch my playtime any longer, but I will be looking forward to tomorrow.

Mika-chan, I will be expecting you~
