I Was Summoned As A Demon - Chapter 25 Equipment Shopping Ii

The two left the expensive equipment shop and tried to find the shop of the lady from before.

I though you wanted expensive and good quality combat equipment? Did you change your mind?

No. I’ll still buy some equipment but not from there

The reason for that was due to Hikaru detecting a difference in qualities from the previous weapons. Hikaru was secretly or passively scanning all the equipment that they are passing through.

(Hikaru did you also scan the Mana Presence from the girl earlier?)

Affirmative

Hikaru then activated something that made Ryu somehow feel if he was getting closer to the person whose presence was scanned.

The presence led the two to the South Side of town. As they arrived near the shop where the presence was detected, there was a commotion happening.

Oi old man, the agreement was that you give me 50% of your earnings monthly so we don’t wreck your shop

Please! We haven’t got any customers yet, we need the money for daily necessities!

Just hand it over, or do you want me to take your daughter right there? She looks fine if I would say it.

Leave my daughter out of this!

As the old man tried to protect her daughter, Cammy, from being taken by the man, he was threatened by a knife.

One step closer and I’ll stab your fucking face!

Excuse me but do you sell equipment here?

Ryu entered the scene and asked with a face that says ‘I don’t know what’s happening here’

Don’t interfere here mister or ill stab your face and take all your money too

(Good thing Keel was outside, this is dangerous for him)

Oh I wouldn’t try it, how about you go now and ill let you go?

Oho you do have guts to go against me huh? Don’t you know me? I’m Brutus, I control the South Side of this town, so you better scram and mind your own business

I don’t remember the Guildmaster saying anything about the mayor being someone named Brutus, isn’t that strange?

Ryu was taunting the guy, veins are visible on the forehead of the guy who named himself as Brutus.

I said mind your own business!

Brutus ran at Ryu with full speed and tried to stab him.

Too bad! You’re unarmed!

Brutus saw that Ryu didn’t have any weapon or whatsoever so he thought that he was at an advantage.

Ryu was also surrounded by three more thugs that are blocking the exit with their swords drawn out.

However.

[Demonic Kick]

Ryu had activated the combat art named Demonic Kick. Aura was visibly gushing out of Ryu’s legs. Brutus saw this and stopped on his tracks.

What the fuck is that?

He was being careful of the aura that was seen on Ryu’s legs. He then ordered his men to attack first using signs so that Ryu would not notice.

Suggest:Duck

Hikaru had told Ryu to duck and he safely avoided the sword that was headed for him. He then followed up with a low kick to the thug and the thug fell on the floor.

Impossible! How did you see that!

Someone as dumb as you wouldn’t understand so just get out of here

You insulted me for the last time! Boys attack him, kill him!

The two thugs were headed straight for Ryu as Brutus was laughing in the front in Ryu’s demise. Or so he thought.

Ryu immidiately detected the presence of the two thugs and behind him without even looking back using Hikaru’s instructions.

The thug who fell down was still down due to him hitting his head hard on the floor.

Weak

Ryu did a full roundhouse kick and hit the two thugs at the same time. This was possible due to the skill [Demonjutsu] which he got earlier. This didn’t only give him skills and techniques in using the katana but also in martial arts.

Ughh!

The two thugs were immidiately put down and disarmed. Ryu then picked up one of the swords and tried to intimidate Brutus.

[Heavy Blow], you wouldn’t want this up your ass right?

The sword was erupting with intense aura and energy. And his plan worked, Brutus was getting nervous.

Brutus quickly escaped with three of his men and left saying

We’ll definitely kill you next time! Just you wait!

At last the commotion had been put to a stop.

Thank you very much!!! I’m glad they didn’t hurt my father

The girl, Cammy, thanked Ryu with a little bit of tears in her eyes due to being scared earlier.

Don’t mind it, if was only the right thing to do. Anyways I’m here to buy some weapons

Oh thank you very much, may you wait outside for a bit, I’ll just fix up the shop.

Ryu headed outside and waited for the shop owner to fix his place up. He also called Keel because the danger was already gone.

But Keel wasn’t there, there was a note on the ground saying.

” I headed somewhere else, I’ll probably try to find you later, I’m sorry but it was urgent.

~ Keel”

(Urgent huh, that kid is still mysterious for me, looking like boy, acting like a girl, it creeps me out)

Please enter now. We are finished

Ryu entered the shop and the items were polished and displayed outside.

Hmm I’m here to get your highest quality sword, preferably a broadsword, I don’t mind if it’s expensive, I just want the best one.

Well, if you want that maybe we can forge you a new sword so you can choose the hilt and such

How long would that take?

About a day? We don’t have an expensive forge so melting metal is very slow

Ryu was then led inside by the two and was shown a variety of hilts, preferably for a broadsword.

(Hmm this one looks good but it doesn’t fit my hand very well, and this one is too short

Hikaru pick the best one)

Scanning

Detected

I’ll take this one then

(Hikaru is useful as fuck wtf?)

Ryu chose the hilt highlighted by Hikaru which is perfectly balanced for him.

Then you will only have to wait till tomorrow for your sword, we have a bad forge so metal heating is slow.

May I know what material you’re heating?

Ryu was curious on what type of steel they were gonna use to forge his sword, because he wants the best one.

Were gonna use Dwarven Steel which is our highest quality, though we have a better one which is the Oxite Steel, we don’t actually have the forge to heat it high enough and fast enough

Can I see it?

Ryu wanted to see the steel, he intends to use his special skill to use it.

He led Ryu to the forging room and showed him the steel.

Yes, I can work with this, can you put it in the forge

Are you sure? What do you intend to do?

Just watch haha

The old man, Kaz, placed the steel inside the forge and looked at Ryu in confusion.

(Hikaru can you calculate the magic output?)

Affirmative

Well then, [Demonic Inferno of Fear]!

A magic circle that was just the right size surrounded the steel and the inferno began, in just a few minutes the steel had been melted to a state where it can be casted. Ryu also depleted almost 2/3 of his Mana.
