Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 747: Magic Armor

”Ah!” Sylvia looked shocked. There was no way she could think of something like this, considering she was just a maid. ”That might be true.”

Nathan nodded. ”Well, that is still up for a debate. However, I will suggest it on the way home. With the specialized weapons, there might be a new path for the blacksmith as well.

”Thatʼs why itʼs not something that one can easily decide. In fact, I know too little regarding the knight itself, so there might be a possibility that Iʼm unaware of yet.”

Sylvia nodded. ”If you need anything, please donʼt hesitate to tell me. I have been asked to help you in any way.”

”In that case, do you think the magic weapon has a weakness?” Nathan asked.

”Weakness?” Sylvia tilted her head in confusion. ”I donʼt really understand because I donʼt even wield a weapon. All I know is that the magic weapon is similar to a normal weapon but with just additional ena. Wonʼt the weakness be the same as normal weapons?”

”Is that so?” Nathan looked down, falling into deep thought.

”Master Nathan.” Daz gradually walked to him. ”I know itʼs rude, but may I speak regarding this matter?”

”Sure.” Nathan nodded.

”In that case, Iʼd like to express my concern regarding one problem. Itʼs not really a problem, but the lack of one.”

”Lack of problems?”

”Yes. And that is due to the magic weapon not being diverse yet. From what we know, there are two variants right now. They are magic spears and magic swords.

”However, people would definitely like to use something else. For example, a hammer or even a bow. In the end, a lot of people are using bows to suppress the aliens, so due to the lack of variety, there arenʼt many problems for the time being.”

”I see.” Nathan pinched the bridge of his nose. ”Hammer can be considered for now. Regarding the bow, I donʼt think itʼs possible to recreate it.

”However, there might not be a need to recreate it in the first place. Instead of a bow, I think itʼs best to use this.” Nathan took out his gun.

”!!!” Daz gasped. ”The first magic weapon, Magic Gun.”

”Yes. Instead of a bow, we can use a gun as its replacement. Right now, my pistol is similar to a crossbow.

”If you need something with a longer range, I have actually asked a trustworthy person from the Blacksmith Guild to work on two other weapons similar to guns for mid-range and long-range, respectively,” Nathan explained.

”As expected of you, Great Master. To think you have already thought that far ahead. I, Daz, admire you.”

Nathan waved his hand, treating it as not a big deal. ”Still, for now, weʼll only be producing the weapons that people are using the most, which are the sword and the spear.

”Once things have settled down a bit more, we can send out other variants.”

”I understand. Thank you very much.”

Nathan looked at the other elite knights, who were already standing behind him. ”Is everyone done with their daily routine?”

”Yes. We have warmed up.” Daz smiled.

”Do you have anything youʼd like to say regarding magic weapons?” Nathan tilted his head so that he could look at them.

The elite knights exchanged looks. They didnʼt know much about the improvement since they had been wielding the same weapons the whole time.

After getting the lack of response, Nathan added, ”Anything is fine. How about the trigger? The ena consumption? How hard is it to wield the magic weapon compared to this one? Do you have anything to complain about? Can you control the magic weapon?”

The elite knights didnʼt say anything yet. It was as if they had the same answer.

One of them ultimately stepped forth. ”Reporting to the great master. The weapons are working properly. The ena consumption compared to what we use is understandable.

”Itʼs not hard to wield this weapon, and itʼs not like we are required to unleash its power all the time. We can hurt or stop a juvenile class even without the ena, so having an additional power to take it down is already welcome.

”Once we get used to the slashing power, in like two or three tries, we donʼt really have any problems wielding them. After all, we have been training with the same sword or spear for years or even decades. Hence, thereʼs no problem.”

Nathan nodded. ”I see. Thatʼs good then.”

To his surprise, the only woman in the group couldnʼt help but raise her hand. ”Great master. May I?”

”Sure. Tell me everything you want.” Nathan nodded.

”This might not be related to the magic weapon. And I donʼt think others really care much about it. But for women, they require a slightly different armor, especially in our chest and butt.

”As a result, having personalized armor is definitely what weʼd love to get first.” She stopped at that part. The message was clear.

”I see. You want to make magic armor?” Nathan crossed his arms. ”Well, I do have something in mind.

”The concept is like this…” Nathan raised his hand and gathered his ena in his hand. ”You can see the ena around my hand, right?”

They nodded.

”This is the concept. Instead of releasing the ena, Iʼm planning on circulating it in the weapon to sharpen the weapons.

”And by using the same concept, we can probably apply ena on the armor. With this, the impact you will have to bear is lesser due to some of the force being absorbed by the ena.

”In the end, the magic weapons are for attacking. You still have to dodge the aliensʼ attack. If you donʼt, you might die even with your current armor. Hence, magic armor might be the solution. Because itʼs circulating within the equipment, thereʼs not much ena being released to the air, so the loss is minimal, which allows you to use the armor for a prolonged period.

”However, because this new concept needs some testing first, I canʼt say for sure when itʼs going to be ready. Iʼm sorry, but I canʼt provide them yet.” Nathan explained.
