I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 88

#When I returned, my family was ruined (89)

That was the time.

The bald old man spoke urgently with his eyes shining.

“Three… branches of the world tree…! Duke! “Can I touch you just once?”

Branches of the world tree.

It was one of the catalysts that wizards hope for even in their dreams.

Simply smelling its scent has the effect of purifying the mana inside.

When used as an artifact material, it had the great effect of increasing the overall ‘harmony’ of the finished product and raising the grade of the item itself.

It means that it is a precious item that can be used as a material for a new sword. It was no wonder that Melaisis rolled her eyes.

“Tsk tsk. Yeongtaeng, pay your price for the night and go out. “I’m embarrassed so I need to be able to take him with me.”

“…Not anything else, just branches of the World Tree! “Aren’t you curious about this?”

“The idea is to keep your integrity. And what would you do if it were a valuable item? “It’s just an item whose power is almost exhausted.”

Melaisis, startled, poured mana into her eyes and immediately opened them.

Just as Ilya said, the inside of the handle was a mess.

The bald old man’s eyes became blank.

“Three… How did the branches of the World Tree become like this…”

“It seemed like it was completely damaged by what happened during the Balaur War.”

“Is it because of the handle of that divine sword that you called us?”

“okay. I plan to get a separate branch and restore the handle. “The only problem is the metal that makes up the sword body.”

“If it is metal….”

“Ardenheit, called the metal of God. “Do you know its whereabouts?”

“….”

The two wizards turned into mute mutes.

Ardenheit.

It was a metal that was now known only in verses. It was last known to have been discovered on the Western Continent 200 years ago.

That too for a while.

Ilya asked, tilting her head.

“Grand Duke. “No, duke.”

“Say it.”

“Do we really need to use that metal to restore the divine sword?”

“huh?”

“The world is developing rapidly. The same applies to the metal field. Ardenheit? Of course, I admit that it is a very good metal…”

“Even the Emperor of the Zenon Empire, which is said to be the most powerful country, probably does not have much of it. No, not even the emperor may have one. As this old monster said, there is no need to use that metal…”

“You!”

“Oh my. “Are you angry?”

Ilya smiled at Melaisis, who was smiling slyly.

“no. I’m not angry. “Wouldn’t it be troublesome if my hair fell out?”

“What…what is it?”

He spoke to the two people who started bickering.

“Both of you stop.”

At his words, the bald old man and the girl stopped arguing.

Ethan asked while looking at Ilia.

“Are you saying there is something that can replace the metal of God?”

“there is. Of course, it would be difficult to expect performance as good as Ardenheit, which is only passed down through word of mouth.”

“To what extent should we consider efficacy?”

“Hmm… if you consider the effectiveness of the God Metal that was passed down orally… about half of that? Instead, it is relatively easier to obtain. “As long as you have a lot of money.”

It was interesting.

Ardenheit.

Even Ethan didn’t know where or how this was found.

‘50%.’

Although it is only half effective.

What is important is whether it is half as effective as something else.

Neprion.

This was also a fairly useful metal, but compared to the metal Ilya was talking about now, it was just a much lower level metal.

“What is the name of the metal?”

“It’s Menelian alloy. “It is an alloy made by mixing 30 different metals and is quite effective.”

“The only metals higher than this on the continent are adamantium and Ardenheite, which is located at the level above it. “It’s such a good metal.”

It’s Menelian alloy.

It’s a metal I’ve never even heard of, at least in my previous life.

It seemed highly likely that it was a metal created when the past was changed.

“Do you know where they sell it?”

“Kingdom of Ameria. “It is sold at the dwarves’ home base.”

“However, it is not an item that is sold every time. This is because only a limited quantity is sold at auction every year. “There are times when it doesn’t sell.”

What was needed was time and money.

At least the situation was much better than the god metal that I didn’t even know how to get.

“It’s okay.”

“okay. “If you mix this with Yeongtaengi’s raw material strengthening magic, you will be able to increase its power from 60% to 70% if you do well, not half.”

“Of course… I will also need dwarves who can properly smelt the metal I strengthened.”

“There are dwarves.”

Melaisis tilted her head at those words.

“Do you know any dwarves? An ordinary blacksmith won’t do it. Menelian alloy is a metal that requires great skill to work with.”

“What do you think it would be like to be a blacksmith for the Heidern royal family?”

“He’s a royal blacksmith…”

Melaisis struggled.

As a wizard who strengthens metal, he had the experience of meeting numerous blacksmiths.

Judging by that experience.

“It seems like it will work out somehow. At that level, he must be a fairly high-level dwarf…”

The blacksmith had passed. There was even a wizard who could engrave the circuit.

Ilya.

‘He is the god of blacksmiths and the god of magic.’

It couldn’t have been a real god.

They were probably very talented people.

‘It’s difficult to follow all of the oral tradition anyway.’

Will we restore the perfect divine sword itself?

If things continued that way, I might have to go back and forth to restore the new sword for well over ten years.

Alloy instead of God’s metal.

Porforens instead of the blacksmith god.

If you use Ilya instead of the God of Magic.

‘It will serve as a suitable substitute.’

The most reasonable way would be to restore more than half of the sword and then obtain complete materials one by one to improve the performance of the new sword.

‘It would be much more useful than the Nephrion Greatsword.’

Nowadays it is difficult to keep white flame smoking for a long time, but that will change over time.

It is said that there are gauntlets and greaves engraved with Ilia’s magic.

‘It will be difficult to withstand the temperature of white salt for a long time.’

Due to rapid growth, better weapons were needed.

“Ilya.”

“Did you call me?”

“Is there anything that can replace the branches of the World Tree?”

“Hmm… that’s difficult. Because the branch is responsible for the overall ‘harmony’. “There are substitute products, but if you use them, you must be prepared for the quality of the finished product to drop significantly.”

“Right.”

I was just wondering.

Unfortunately, it seemed difficult to find a substitute for eggplant.

‘The world tree.’

It was a tree grown by an elf tribe. However, the number was not large.

Even in my previous life, there were at most five trees in the entire Western Continent.

‘I wonder if Torran will remain in the Great Mountains.’

Torran Mountain Range.

It is a large mountain range located in the south of the West, where a large elf tribe lived.

But I couldn’t just trust memories of the past.

Even among the dwarves, didn’t the tribes move in and establish kingdoms?

“Have the elves also established a kingdom?”

“That closed race? Even if they are of the same race, if they come from different tribes, how could they possibly start a war?”

It seemed that the elves were continuing their tribal life as before.

It was then.

Ilya asked with bright eyes.

“Are you trying to find the elf?”

“okay.”

“Hmm! “I know the location of one great tribe.”

“Eh? You know the whereabouts of the elves? how?”

“Do you think I’m just like you who has no friends? This body has already established friendly relations with the elves. “It wouldn’t be strange if we were friends.”

“…Huh. “It’s truly amazing.”

“Do you finally realize how great this body is?”

“I can’t believe you had a friend… Miracles do exist in this world! “Starting today, I will make an offering to God.”

“joy. “If you’re jealous, you can just say you’re jealous… Anyway, my stomach is twisted.”

“You old monster. Sorry, but I really have a lot of friends. It’s hard to count them all with two hands. What about there? “Is there anyone other than elves that you can call a friend?”

Startle!

Ilya trembled.

Instead of answering.

She jerked her head towards Ethan.

“Duke. “If you are looking for an elf, it would be better to accompany this body.”

“Is this a tribe with a world tree?”

“It sure was like that the last time I saw it.”

“Right.”

Ilya is said to have a friendly relationship with the elves.

If you move with her, you will be able to peacefully obtain branches from the tribe instead of cutting up the elves.

‘If it is a large tribe, it must have a world tree.’

The World Tree refers to trees grown one by one by a large tribe of elves.

“When will you leave?”

“In about a week.”

The duchy was not yet completely stabilized. In addition, there is still a schedule for the knights’ joint training.

It took about a week of preparation.

Ilya nodded.

“I will prepare thoroughly. “Oh, the place where the elves are is the Torlan Mountains.”

“okay.”

Ethan nodded.

* * *

After the conversation with the two wizards.

Ethan, sitting in a chair, continued his thoughts.

‘There is a way to save the branches of the World Tree.’

Not only was Ilya acquainted with the elves, but Ethan also knew something about the elves’ habitat.

Eggplants can be obtained from the Great Mountains.

The wizard and blacksmith were already prepared.

The biggest problem was the Menelian alloy. An alloy sufficient to make one great sword.

The price I heard from the two wizards was.

‘It was said that the winning bid would be between 8,000 and 10,000 platinum coins.’

It was truly an unimaginable price. If the skills are the same, the better the weapon, the higher the chance of winning.

Therefore, each country would provide high-ranking knights with an astronomical amount of money for weapons.

The strength of the knights was equivalent to the strength of each kingdom.

‘That’s difficult.’

The amount of money to be received from the 7 kingdoms and the platinum coins that have been collected so far.

The amount was quite large.

Even in platinum coins, it was close to six thousand.

but.

‘It’s not a good choice to use this as a weapon.’

This was the duchy’s development fund. You can’t give up on the development of your duchy just to change one weapon.

However, we cannot give up on restoring the new sword.

‘I’ll need someone to buy it for me.’

A person who is friendly to himself, has a lot of money, and has the power to participate in the auctions of the Dwarven Kingdom.

There was only one person that came to Ethan’s mind.

Marquis Bloten.

When Ethan was thinking about the Marquis.

A commotion was heard from outside. Soon, a familiar voice began to echo in the office.

“Peacock. “Can I come in?”

Ethan’s eyes lit up.

A voice I had only heard through a crystal ball.

Because it sounded exactly like that.

‘It’s truly elaborate.’

I was just thinking about the Marquis.

As if he knew that, he visited this place himself.

“Please come in.”

Soon the door opened.

Marquis Bloten appeared.
