A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

The next day after Ive returned to a human city in a long time.

I immediately go to Nexias mine to mine ores; Im wanting Light Metal and Exploding Ore, but

I withdrew from the mine when Ive excavated for 30 minutes.

Since the ore vein hasnt recovered yet, if 1 person excavates a mountainous amount, the chance that youll trigger a fight from the people around is extremely high; Im not the only one who wants ores, after all.

The result was that I got my hands on the bare minimum of Light Metal, quite a large amount of Exploding Ore, and some Steel and Silver, so lets call that good.

Furthermore, on the way back, lets go cut down several trees. Even though there used to be a ton of trees, recently its been sparse. Without needing to say it, its because the people who use bows have increased, though.

And also because magic user staffs also use wood as the foundation

Now that resource depletion has become even harsher, no matter what kind of new methods developed for gather resources, if a new place isnt found, the situation will become dire. It would be fine if the devs had plans to supplement things.

I warped back from Nexia to Faust, and with my usual wood processing, the maintenance for the X-bow began.

Its been abused beyond how Ive used it before, so it wont do if I dont have all sorts of different wood for repairs.

The wounds that were beyond my imagination harshly reduced the wood for repairs steadily; its not like the city blacksmiths skill is bad, but because the weapon is too specialized, its too difficult to repair; this is a weak point, na

Just managing to do it to some degree, the left over wood is fashioned into arrows.

After this, it should be fine once I go to the forge to make arrowheads, and there put them together.

The intensely used Twister Arrows in particular will have to be replenished in great numbers.

On the other hand, since I rarely used kicking attacks, the Fang Leg Blades havent lost durability in the slightest

This time it practically didnt need any maintenance, but since I walked on them, of course I will inspect them for forms sake.

Next is the Compounding workshop, to compound Enhanced Oil and Rare Potions.

Enhanced Oil is mass produced, while the Rare Potion is laboriously made one at a time.

I usually dont have the opportunity to use Rare Potions much, but there are also things like that Lady Fenrir from before, so although I dont have many medicinal herbs, it wont do not to make them, I guess.

About 15 minutes gives 100 bottles of Enhanced Oil, and 15 bottles Rare Potions were produced; a person who is exclusively an alchemist would make them with even more efficiency, I suppose

By the way, making the Enhanced Oils all together required me to have a large amount of MP, but thanks to the Pikarshas feather, I was somehow able to do it.

And lastly, I headed from the Compounding Workshop to the Forge.

Oo, Earth, its been a while!

And, for some reason, Boss, whos always there.

Its been a while; I went over to the Fairy Country.

In response to that replay, Boss also smiled and said, Its about time that I should try heading over there, to sightsee.

Boss has work to do, so we cut off the conversation, and I sit in front of the work areas hearth.

First off, if I dont make the ores into ingots, I cant get to work.

I set the gathered Light Metal to melt in the forge, and removing the impurities, I make ingots.

Finally making ingots, I used the Steel and made Twist Arrow arrowheads.

Its a game system where, once you make it the first time its easy to mass produce, so this arrowhead manufacturing, as well as the production of Twist Arrows, steadily proceeded.

Anyway, this number is probably enough; about 4,000 Twist Arrows are produced.

After finishing the production of arrows, I checked the Fang Leg Blades just in case, but as expected, I cam to the conclusion that they wouldnt need any maintenance.

From here on its new production, so I treat the Light Metal and make it thin, making 2 long armor slabs. I want to affix them to exterior of the X-Bow so that the resistance of the Bow would increase even more; so Im basically aiming for an increase in fire power.

That said, increasing the weight too much will make the handling very difficult instead, so lets only really use a little bit.

With this treatment, the appearance of the X-Bow will be 2 Light Metal branches intersecting, so looking at it, it looks like a metal bow, I bet although the insides are still wood.

Hitting it several times, I check the weight. Its just a little, but I think its not to my standards, so I hit it again.

If I screw up I can return to the forge again and make it an ingot, so I can challenge it however many times I need.

It took about half an hour of repetitive work

Finally the Light Metal exterior veneer, or more like the cover, was finished.

Putting on the exterior onto the X-Bows bow parts, I equip it.

I check the final weight As expected, its a little heavy but its within the acceptable range, next is how the bow draws after pulling it back several times, theres no problems, and I confirmed that its not too difficult to draw, and that theres no weird noise.

Composite X-Style Hunting Bow, Light Metal Coat Atk +55

Since the system also recognizes it as a finished product, I have a sense of relief.

However, the truth is its become a hell of a bow to maintain; even when right now, its become difficult to get resources.

That said, Im grateful that the firepower has increased; if I didnt raise it here, Ill hit a road block in the future.

So lets clearly say that this product was necessary.

Hou-, so the next weapon is reinforced like this.

Because a voice so suddenly appeared from behind me, I raised a startled, Uwhoa-!?, and caused the other smith comrades working in the Forge to glance over. I apologetically bow my head.

Boss, dont suddenly speak up from right behind me, please

You might say that its because I was concentrating to such a degree, but it really gave me a scare.

You made all sorts of things, from one thing to another. Oh, right, you have a customer; you should go handle that.

Like that, where his finger was pointed, there was the Guild Master of the bow guild, Apollos Bow, Ayame-san, and a few others.

Since that time with Nether they hadnt had any requests, but what in the world could they want me for it would be good if it wasnt something troublesome, but my logout time is soon, too.
