A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

A- its a pity, but this has reached the end of its lifespan,ne.

That is what the armor craftsman that I asked to repair my armor said.

Is that so its served me well for so long, but now its finally

I muttered.

Even though its reached the end of its life, the full set of Werewolf Leather Armor has reached the end after protecting for a long time; its the result of completely over-using it, though.

Especially taking all those death penalties in the Challenge of the Dead; taking those unnecessary grievances, the process was expedited. The penalty for having fun while overdoing it has finally appeared.

I remember selling this to you quite a long time ago, but you really used it until it reached its limits,ne~ though as a craftsman, it makes me happy.

It was a really good product, and on top of that, there arent that man people who wear leather armor that has a low-popularity in itself, so thats probably why she remembered.

It was really an excellent item, so I really was in its care until now, but if its like that, then I guess Ill have to have a new one.

If its at its end, theres no helping it; with that decision, Ill have to have a new leather armor made.

So will you request something? Although, the prices of many things have gone up lately, so

Her words trail off; I already know that the armor crafters have all sorts of issues they have to deal with.

Could you use Wild Bear fur and pelts to make it with? Theyre by products of when I went out for meat

So saying, I show her the loot from the Wild Bears. If she makes it out of these then the price should fall by quite a bit.

A-, if youre bringing your own materials, then I can make it for cheap by the way, can you bring out some metals?

Metal? We were talking about making leather armor; should I get her to explain?

If youre asking whether I have any, I do have some silver ingots, but

Ive been making all sorts of weapons en masse so my Steel and Light Metal are pretty much gone, but I do have Silver, which I didnt have any ideas of how to use, so I just made them into ingots, and now theyre just leftovers.

Then, Wild Bears leather armor reinforced with silver is what Ill aim to make,ne; compared to Werewolf one, it will be quite the item with much better defense; and since you brought all the materials yourself, for just my time and work it will 12000Glo. Hows that, Chef-san?

If it will raise the ability, then I have no complaints; if its at the rang of 12000Glo, then I can manage that fine.

Got it, then lets go with that. I have the materials right now with me; is it OK to pay at the end, when exchanging the finished product?

With this we reached an agreement, and a new leather armor is going to be made; it will be finished after about three days, so I made an appointment to come after 3 days and then left the place.

A short time after I placed my order with the armor crafter and left, an announcement ran.

Urgent Information

A-, so a [katana] type style has finally shown up; in some ways, its expected,naa but, Oodachi, huh I havent heard of rumors of tamahagane2being found yet, but dont tell me that you have to make tamahagane from steel sand it would be a challenge among crafting that has never been seen before, though? Is this going to be ok?

After that, I gave my undivided attention to mass-producing food and potions.

Theres a lot of demand, and anyway, the Queen will probably show up in front of me again, going Make me some~.

Its probably not just the Queen thats eating them; the possibility that shes handing them out to other Fairies is also high, so I have no choice but to get used to making the corresponding amount.

And like that, several days of steadfast crafting of food, potion, and Enhanced Oil passed, and the day before the implementation of the Fairies Country patch came; and also, its been three days, and a mail from the armor crafter saying, Armors done~ came, so I headed off to receive it. The armor that I received had part of it with the Wild Bear fur left, and the silver thinly sewn in, reinforcing each part, a full set of leather armor. The Stats are;

Previous Equipment

Werewolf Leather Set

HeadDef+5,BodyDef+15,

PantsDef+13

ArmsDef+8,LegsDef+6

And the current equipment

Wild Bear Leather Set (Silver Reinforced_

HeadDef+8,BodyDef+22,

PantsDef+19

ArmsDef+11,LegsDef+10

Fullset Equipped, Vit moderately increased, Mind increased by a little

On top of greatly increasing my defenses, its only a little, but for the Vit and Mind that I was worried about to be reinforced, its equipment that Im extremely grateful for; Vit is probably from the Wild Bear fur, while Mind is the effect of the Silver, I bet.

Silver vanquishing evil, in other words being effective against Undead, isnt an effect that this game has, but instead it has this effect of supporting Mind. This was good to find out.

I paid the armor crafter her fee and immediately equipped the armor, and then disposed of the Werewolf Leather Armor that Ive used all the way up until now; so its finally time to bid this one farewell; I feel a bit forlorn; Ive never felt like this before in MMOs, is it because its a VRMMO that I directly feel this emotional state?

While thinking these things, Ive come to a place where people dont usually go; its time to make todays portion of food.

I beg your pardon, but would you have some time right now?

And the Fairy Queen, act completely differently from usual, appeared with a stern look on her face.
