After speaking to my father, I was confident that Kojiro would soon be making his way to the wilderness to hunt a Transcendent-rank beast and achieve his breakthrough. The preparations were in motion, and my guards would ensure his safety while allowing him the combat experience he needed.
Before heading back to the academy, I decided to make another visit to the materials shop where Elen and I had purchased our crafting supplies. My mind was buzzing with different kinds of project ideas and to implement them, I needed to have resources.
The same merchant greeted me with obvious enthusiasm when he saw me return so soon. This time, I purchased a much more extensive collection of materials - additional Mithril for structural components, more Orichalcum wire for magical conductivity, and various alloy samples for experimentation.
