.
Together with Tita, I went again to the place where the demon’s bug corpse was lying.
The elves tried to do something about the mucus somehow by using things like earthenware and the like to scoop it out. But even the earthenware got melted and the clean up didn’t progress at all.
The ground was melting and the hole was gradually deepening further, so they also tried to bury the hole by throwing in soils or rocks into it. But even those soils and rocks were melted. It was a really troubling situation.
Mood of resignation was already hanging in the air.
It would be faster to just abandon this area and cultivated a new farm somewhere else.
However only this area had open plot of land. Doing something like cutting down trees to make a farm was impossible for the elves who lived in harmony with the forest.
「Uwaa, it looks like restoring this will be far harder than expected.」
Tita was making a grave face.
「That’s why I’m here.」
It also wouldn’t be really good if I helped out with the restoration work.
That was why, I prepared an excuse that this was just me doing maintenance at the surrounding area, otherwise the holes would get in the way of me carrying away the corpse of the demon bug that had been given to me.
I held up my right hand to the front.
There would be no end to this if I only used my own strength.
By pouring power into my right hand, the proof of hero that the Spirit King bestowed to me, the spirit crest rose to the surface.
Its power was overwhelming control over the mana that was filling this world.
There were two kinds of magic power.
First was the magic power that living being had inside their own body, Od.
The other one was the mana that was filling this world.
Normally one would need to use their own Od as bait to gather and borrow the power of mana.
Even a first-class magician only had the effective range of dozens of meters. They also couldn’t fully use all the mana that was gathered. Fifty percent of the mana would be loss in the process.
However, the story was different for me who had the spirit crest engraved on my hand.
I could gather mana from a radius of several kilometer. In addition the mana would take the initiative to voluntarily lend me their strength.
「Gather to me……water」
And then there was six elements of man.
The first that I called was water.
Countless water drops overflowed from the air and poured down to the puddle of mucus.
「Wait, what are you doing!? The mucus will overflow if you do that and the damage will spread!!」
「That won’t happen. Look closer.」
The pouring water enveloped the mucus and floated up to the air from the hole it gouged.
This water wasn’t just water.
It was pure water without any impurity and couldn’t be violated.
If the mucus was enveloped with that veil, it wouldn’t be able to melt anything anymore.
「Next……I ask for earth.」
After water, earth mana gathered rapidly.
The magic activated. The ground shook.
Earth and rocks burst up like a pillar at some distance away. They filled the hole that the mucus gouged instantly.
In exchange a hole so deep that the bottom couldn’t be seen was created at the spot from where those earth and rocks came from. The floating ball of mucus that was enveloped in a veil of pure water was thrown into there. Such thing was repeated with the other mucus in this area too.
「With this the removal of the mucus around here is finished.」
「You are absurd like usual Ork.」
「I’m a hero after all, so obviously I’m out of the norm.」
The mucus removal that the elves had given up on was finished instantly. Everyone was dumbfounded.
However, they returned to their senses after a while. They came running and began to thank me.
This didn’t feel bad.
After the commotion settled down, I faced the demon bug again.
「Now then, we have finished with cleaning up the area, so let’s deal with this guy next.」
「Will something like this really become money?」
「Yeah, this guy’s skin and flesh are amazing. After all even the elf’s arrow that was strengthened with wind magic couldn’t pierce it. It’s elastic, flexible, and tough. Even the flame magic that a hero unleashed in full strength couldn’t completely burn it. If you consider it as an armor, than this is the world greatest skin.」
The skin had unreasonable defensive capability. Furthermore it was light.
Unlike steel armor, this skin could be equipped like clothes.
I also planned to remake my equipment with this demon bug material.
My body was harder than steel. It was pointless for me to equip the average armor.
But, I would be able to have meaningful equipment with this.
「That’s certainly true. Even though the elf’s archer squad rained down arrows on it, not a single arrow could pierce it. The clothes made from this will be invincible.」
「Try cutting this coprse with this sword. Do it with all your strength.」
「Even someone ignorant of sword like me can feel it. This is an amazing sword. I might be getting a bit excited to swing this. Yep, I’ll give it a try.」
What I handed to Tita was the finest quality sword that was hanging on my waist.
Its material was the super rare metal mithril. It was something that I forged with my own hand. The number of sword at this level didn’t reach a hundred in this world.
Tita coated the sword with mana when she swung the sword.
The elves also did the same when they fired their arrow. They had the skill to fill their weapon with mana.
The weapon’s cutting power increased sharply by doing that.
It was also because mithril was an object with extremely high affinity for mana.
Her posture also wasn’t’ bad.
The attack she unleashed could split a thick frying pan into two.
However…….
「No way-, the blade can’t cut it.」
「Now you understand the value of this guy right? Providing foods for all the elves here is just chump change compared to this.」
To be frank, even just Tita and me being able to obtain equipment of this level was more than enough.
Instead we had a mountain of such material.
「But still, how are you going to process this?」
「I’ll use an equipment that boast a better sharpness than this.」
I took out the short staff that I received as graduation present from my magic teacher, the great sage Merlin Enlight.
It had a hidden blade in it. It could be used as staff and also as short sword.
I poured mana and then also ki into that short sword.
Tita’s face was twitching seeing how much mana and ki were being used.
……There were only two weapons that I knew could endure my full strength.
The first was the hero sword that Kaa-san owned.
The other one was this short staff that I received from Merlin Enlight.
Even the mithril sword that I handed to Tita just now couldn’t endure my full strength.
I confirmed that enough power had been gathered and ran while stabbing the blade into the demon bug’s corpse. I kept running for one lap without stopping.
An incision was made.
「What I seek is wind」
And then I called for wind this time with the power of the spirit crest.
Wind with the strength of typhoon poured between the skin and flesh through the incision, and the skin was peeled off all at once.
Then I called for water and cleaned the materials. After that I controlled wind to skillfully fold the skin.
The demon bug’s skin landed loudly on the ground.
「Well, something like this. With this we won’t be troubled for armor material for our whole life. Let’s also create several clothes with this as present for the elves.」
「Geez, this is just……I already thought several times that there is no way I will be surprised anymore no matter what you do Ork, but you are always easily going even further than that.」
「Well yeah. Also, there is still other thing that we can use. It’s this guy’s body fluid.」
「That is a dangerous thing that can melt anything isn’t it?」
「No, not all of its body liquids are like that. You saw by yourself how absurd this guy’s recovery ability right?」
「Yep, the wound that you dealt to it recovered immediately.」
「This guy’s body fluid can also become medicine. I’ll take that.」
I said that while at the same time body fluid flowed out from the incision that I made when I skinned this bug.
This happened due to magic using water mana. I made water mana seeped in from the cut and then I treated its body fluids itself as water to be controlled.
The body fluids separated in the air.
「It become two large globes of water.」
「I separated the unneeded fluids including that troublesome mucus that melt everything from the component that can be used as medicine. I’ll wrap the unneeded fluids together with the mucus that I removed from the ground just now and throw them to garbage can.」
The hole with unseen bottom that I dug out before this sucked in the melting mucus.
「I’ll turn the other one into a healing lake.」
I dug a new hole that was quite deep.
It had the size like a small lake. I put the liquid of the bug that contained medicinal component into it and it became a healing lake.
「Now, after the fire resistant skin is peeled off, and all the liquid inside the body has been brougth out, the flesh has become dried up completely……we can completely burn it to ash.」
It’s finished.
I had taken everything that I needed.
The remaining demon bug’s corpse was just nuisance now.
「What I seek is flame.」
I gathered flame mana.
Until just now I was simply manipulating mana as though they were a part of my body, but to burn something of this size, I needed to use proper magic.
I used mana to construct magic.
And then I unleashed…….
「Purgatory」
It was my trump card, the magic with greatest firepower.
It manifested hell itself in this world. The hellfire of eternity.
The demon bug that gave me that much trouble was annihilated with not even its ash remained.
「Yosh, what’s left is to close the lid on the garbage can.」
I closed the hole where I threw the mucus and other fluids into. I couldn’t take earth from the surrounding to fully close a hole this deep. With an application of alchemy, I prepared something like a partition board that would close it until a certain depth before filling the remaining depth above it with earth.
There was a depth of twenty meter until the partition board was reached, so things would be fine as long as the elves didn’t dig until that deep.
「Yosh, the demon bug is cleaned up with this. What’s left is to prepare several clothes made from the demon bug’s skin as present for the elves and creating the medicine. I have analyzed that guy’s body fluid again, and I’ll be able to create something that is just one step shy from the legendary wonder drug elixir you know? It will be able to cure most wound and sickness in one shot.」
To be honest it gave me the jitters.
I was just guessing, but perhaps that guy once ate a world tree.
That was why it had world tree’s composition in its body fluid and could regenerate like crazy. Its body fluic could also become a secret medicine’s ingredient.
「You know, it might be too late to say this but, you have cleaned up everything here Ork, so we will make it in time even if we start tilling the farm again from now.」
「Well, just accept what you are given. If there is leftover from the foods, you can just use it to hold a grand festival. After all I just got so many amazing ingredients like this, so at least let me pay for them.」
The strongest armor and the greatest medicine.
I was really lucky.
