I Was Reincarnated as an Incompetent Villain Prince, and When I Was in the Dark for an Oshi, the Hero Seems to Have Lost His Temper. Apparently, the Hero Is Also a Reincarnated Person~
“The successful attack was by the team of Her Highness Princess Ria.”
When the teacher announces this, the class erupts in cheers.
（That’s just great, Her Highness Ria!)
(I wish I could have joined Her Highness Ria’s team too. ……)
(Celes-sama was there too, I should have joined.)
Such voices echoed throughout the class.
Then, even after class was over, Ria and Celes were praised by various people.
I smile quietly beside them, and Kureha comes over and talks to me.
“Speaking of which, Master Roland, what is the divine ball used for?”
I reply to that question after a short pause.
“Since we were only able to recover half of the divine balls, we could use them for weapons.”
“Yes, I think you’ll gain more power by using the Divine Balls for weapons than for equipment!”
Kureha speaks with a twinkle in her eye.
“Well then, after class, let’s go to the blacksmith’s.”
“Okay, by the way, whose weapons are you going to make?”
“Of course it’s Kureha’s weapon.”
When I say that, Kureha looks surprised.
“I-I’d rather make Celes-san’s weapons …… “
“It’s natural for a master to put his apprentice first, isn’t it?”
When I answer that, Kureha smiles happily with a blush on her cheeks.
After class, I headed to the blacksmith shop with Kureha.
★
I arrived at the blacksmith shop with Kureha with my mask on and found a variety of weapons on display in the shop.
They are all first-class items, and just looking at them makes my heart dance.
But beside me, Kureha looks a little nervous.
“This is a famous blacksmith shop in the royal capital, isn’t it? I wonder how much it costs. ……”
Kureha looks at the weapons with a twinkle in her eye.
Well, it’s not surprising since they’re all weapons that you wouldn’t normally get.
Then, when I entered the store, I called out to the store owner.
“Shopkeeper, can you make me a weapon using the divine ball?”
When I ask this, the shopkeeper looks surprised for a moment.
“Divine ball? You have a that?”
I was a little surprised by his reaction, but replied calmly.
“Yeah, just recently in the dungeon. So, how expensive do you make them for me?”
The shopkeeper made a gesture as if he was thinking a little when I asked him that.
After a few moments, he opens his mouth.
“I want three, no, four gold coins.”
When the shopkeeper says this, Kureha rushes to open her mouth.
“Four gold coins! It’s going to cost that much?!”
Even when Kureha says so, the shopkeeper’s expression doesn’t change.
Seeing that, I smirk.
“Here you go, four gold coins.”
Saying this, I place four gold coins on the desk.
The shopkeeper then looks surprised and asks me.
His eyes look incredulous.
“You’re no ordinary adventurer, ……. Four gold coins is a lot of money, and no ordinary adventurer can afford it.”
“You see, I wear the mask for a reason.”
The owner looked convinced when I said that.
Then he began to appraise the jade again.
After a few minutes, the shopkeeper opens his mouth to say whether he has finished appraising the jade.
“This is a good divine ball, definitely the best craftsman I’ve ever worked.”
I smile at his answer.
The shopkeeper continued talking with a serious look in his eyes.
“It will take a few days to make. Is that okay?”
“Yes, I’ll take it.”
When I replied, the shopkeeper wrapped the jade in cloth and took it inside.
At the side, Kureha looks a little apologetic, but I gently pat her on the head and smile.
“My allowance is a moderately large sum, you know? So I could easily earn enough to pay for my apprentice’s weapons.”
When I say this, Kureha smiles, her cheeks reddening, and thanks me in a whisper.
“Thank you, Master Roland …….”
I smile gently at Kureha.
If only such a relaxing time could last forever, I thought.
But at this time, we had no way of knowing that we were in danger.
