Frontiers ~Chronicles of Bucket-san’s Detailed Pioneering~

ocess!

And the result of the attempt was…

——

Dark Short Sword

Sword/6*/ATK +88; Attribute: Darkness/Small Enchantment: Darkness/Durability: 120

——

The blade of the Iron Short Sword was of a beautiful black.
It wasn’t a jet-black that absorbs all light like the Sealed Dark Mysterious Sword, but it was still of a pretty black color.

Also, the performance was slightly ahead of what the Iron Short Sword could do… Not to mention its Option.
Once again, it was one that I had never seen before.

Though this one wasn’t as mysterious as the last one.
As it is basically adding a magical attribute on the weapon.

However, darkness is not an attribute with any information about it on the forums.
At most people have speculated that it was a derivative attribute that came from mixing multiple other attributes.

It’s still a standard attribute though… But one that nobody should have been able to add to items yet, so… This is quite rare, isn’t it? Would it be enough to be put up for auction?

Well, I could try contacting Mr.
Kederick about it, but… There is still 40% of the Dark Sage’s Alchemy Liquid yet.

If I add these 40%, the difficulty will definitely become even higher than before, but… I think it’s still possible for me to do it, so I should try it.

Yeah, let’s aim higher.
I still have Lich Bones, and I should be able to make one Dark Sage’s Alchemy Liquid for every three Lich Bones I use, so I can still experiment with this!

Let’s go! Carefully moving forward, but without holding back!

The process is still the same.

The timing to Add the liquid also hasn’t changed.

Now… To put 40% of it!

… The difficulty really did raise from the last time… Isn’t this quite dangerous!?

Carefully, carefully… Let’s pay very close attention to each of my swings…

******

I was somehow able to complete it properly.
I thought I had lost it at one point, but I was able to make a recovery and succeeded in finishing it at the last minute.

I didn’t expect the difficulty to get this high at 40%… I’d definitely fail if I tried putting 50% of the alchemy liquid on the sword.

But with this, I was able to finish the product.

Dark Short Sword

Sword/8*/ATK +134; Attribute: Darkness; ADHP: 4/Medium Attack Power Enhancement/Small Enchantment: Darkness/Tiny Life Drain/Durability: 120

——

It really is more effective as the difficulty raises, isn’t it!?

The rank rose by two, and more than that… This actually has three Options! I wasn’t in the Zone, but this is definitely my second item with three Options!

And it has yet another option I never saw before… But it’s a very straight-forward one.

Life Drain should definitely take away the life of one’s opponent and recover yours.
The effect may be tiny, but recovering health with each attack is still quite something.

And thanks to the Medium Attack Power Enhancement, this weapon has more ATK than a Steel Short Sword… This is definitely a masterpiece with two useful Options on top of an Attribute addition!

With something like this, Mr.
Kederick will surely be satisfied.

… There’s a problem though.
This is something that Mika would definitely want.

The Sealed Dark Mysterious Sword is still being rented, but she will surely want this one as well.
She does use two swords, after all.

I can’t put this for auction when taking this into account… I’m just too sweet to my relatives to do that.

So, let’s lend this one to Mika too.

That said, considering how hard it was to make this weapon, not to mention the fact that it got good Options in it, I think I might need to give up on getting an item listed at the auction.

I mean, maybe the 6* Dark Short Sword might work? Though… Well, it’s not good enough, is it?

But I did succeed at Adding 40% of the Dark Sage’s Alchemy Liquid without entering the Zone, so… Can’t I try it again?

I still have time, and I still have Lich Bones.

I have enough materials, so I should rise up to the challenge.

This is also a form of pioneering! I may be a crafter, but I’m also a Pioneer!

Rise up to the challenge, Pioneer!
