Book 10: Chapter 33: Hero and Item Creation

Akari went sightseeing for a while in the royal capital of Alheim after receiving the gems from Leaffa, then she teleported back to Apristos.

The gems Leaffa gave me are gorgeous.

Akari, hurry up and make an item using these. Sell them, then lets eat something delicious!

Tet wanted to try more dishes from this world. The dinner that Eliza made last night and the food they ate in Alheim were truly delicious.

Yep, the food here is really yummy, right.

Yup!

The cuisines in Akaris former world, and particularly her home country, were exceptionally great. And yet, the dishes available in this world wouldnt lose at all in terms of deliciousness.

This was thanks to a certain Half-Elf who spearheaded a trading company that spread the delicious cuisine throughout the world over the course of a hundred years.

Got it, Tet. I also want to try the tasty dishes they have in this world.

And for that, they needed money.

Akari agreed with Tets opinion that they had to earn money as soon as possible.

Akari returned to her room in the guild house. She sat in front of her desk and started tinkering with the accessories she made using the skill bestowed by the goddess and the gems she got from Leaffa, adjusting and combining them bit by bit.

Three hours later, Akari finished eight pieces of jewelry that she believed turned out quite nicely.

When she was still in her previous world, all the pieces that she deemed marketable were always sold soon enough. She even remembered selling some in an auction, and they fetched a pretty good price.

Akari was confident that these eight pieces she just made would fetch a hefty price.

Akari is ingenious.

The skill I got from Megami-sama is super handy. I can make whatever tool or stuff I want.

She was able to make pliers, nippers, tweezers, files and whatever tools needed for crafting accessories thanks to <Create Arms>.

Akari got the tools she was familiar with, so her work went on without a hitch.

Lets sell these tomorrow.

Agree~!

Akari and Tet came to this world with the mission to slay the Demon King, but there had been no sign or indication that people were afraid of the Demon King, both in Apristos and Alheim.

After discussing this with Tet, Akari concluded that their mission was probably not that urgent at this point, so they could proceed with the preparations first.

As for the preparations

Once Akari sells the items, Tet wants to eat lots and lots of kebab!

The plan was to travel to various locations so that they could gather intel about the Demon King, and also enjoy the local delicacies while they were at it.

Goodness, Tet Well, the kebab we ate yesterday in Alheim were pretty yummy, I agree with you on that.

Right! Tet wants to ear more of that! Lets go back to Alheim~

Yup. I want to see Leaffa again.

Ah Yup Yeah.

Tet was somewhat hesitant for some reason.

Tet, whats wrong? Dont tell me youre not good with Leaffa?

Hmm That person is a lot stronger than Tet, so Tet cant help but be nervous.

Eh!?

Akari thought Leaffa was just an ordinary elf. She was gorgeous, yes, but Akari didnt sense anything special. Tet was a deity, and yet she said that Leaffa was stronger than her, so Akari was taken aback.

Akari is stronger, for sure, but between Tet and Leaffa, shes stronger.

If they were ranked strongest to weakest, then the order would be Akari, Leaffa then Tet, apparently.

W-Wait! IIm stronger than Tetthan a deity!?

But of course! Tet is Akaris guide and guard, but if Akari goes into serious mode, Akari is stronger many times over than Tet.

Really?

Rea~lly.

Akari stared at her hands.

Indeed, her status board indicated that she was a Level 300 Hero, and although she didnt really understand the value, she could see that there were lots of numbers written beside the <Stamina> and <Magic> part.

So Im strong, huh

The goddess went all out in bestowing her protection just so Akari could defeat the Demon King without a hitch.

Akari, Tetis sleepy

Okay, time to sleep then, Tet. Goodnight.

Goodnight, Akari. Lets eat many delicious things tomorrow, too.

The following morning, Akari decided to sell her crafts at the tools shop in the city, but she decided to consult Eliza first since she didnt have an inkling about the market price for her items.

Good morning, Eliza.

Good morning, Akari. Whats up with you today?

Eliza was organizing the paperwork at the counter on the first floor of the guild, so Akari went to her.

I tried crafting a few items yesterday. Sorry for bothering you, but can you please take a look and tell me how much they would sell for?

You already did? Thats quite fast. Alright, let me see them for a bit.

Akari picked up the pendant that she placed on the counter, and Eliza checked it.

Hmm, this is

In this world, the weapons, armors and items were evaluated based on their ability and scarcity. There were nine grades of rarity, which were

Genesis (Creator Grade)

God (Mythic Grade)

Legend (Legendary Grade)

Ancient (Ancient Grade)

World (World Grade)

Artifact (Treasure Grade)

Rare (Rare Grade)

Maker (Product Grade)

Common (Ordinary Grade)

Hakoku was Creator Grade, while the scarletite ring that Halt gifted Tina was Mythic Grade.

By the way, even if the same materials and tools were used, the rarity grade would change depending on the ability of the craftsman.

T-Thats odd. Appraisal says

Appraisal?

I have the <Appraisal> skill that can check the craftsmanship of items.

There were rare times when the Appraisal skill manifested among those who had honed their craftsmanship skills. Eliza was one of those who managed to acquire it.

Thanks to this Appraisal skill, it was possible to check the rarity of an item and confirm its ability in detail; however

N-no way. Theres no wayB-But then, theres no explaining how this happened otherwise.

Eliza, whats wrong?

I cant appraise the item you crafted, Akari.

D-Does that mean it’s bad enough that even Appraisal cant assess it?

Akari had been confident with her work, but she felt dejected thinking that they were so bad that they couldnt be appraised.

No, thats not it. No matter how bad the item is, it will show up as Trash or Common on my board, butAkaris item is neither of the two.

What does that mean?

I can only appraise items up to the World Grade.

In the first place, there were only a handful of people who possessed the <Appraisal> skill, and those who could appraise items that had grades above Treasure were even rarer.

Eliza was one of the excellent appraisers who could judge up to World Grade, but even so, she couldnt appraise the pendant that Akari crafted.

In short

Akari, the item that you created is probably an Artifact, or might even be Legend or God level.

EhEh!?

Yehey, good job, Akari. We can eat lots of kebab with this!

Eliza and Akari were both shocked, but on the contrary, Tet was happy because she realized that she could eat a lot of different delicious food.
