Chapter 291 - Hero and Item Creation

The next day, Akari went to the plaza located in the heart of Apristos’ royal capital. A huge statue stood in its very center.

It was Halt’s statue, accompanied by Wind Spirit King Sylph.

“Haru-Nii…or not.”

The appearance was different from that of her brother.

It was a stone statue so the eye color wasn’t shown, but the painting on the cover of the book Eric handed her last night had beautiful azure eyes.

“What’s up, Akari?”

Akari looked dejected as she stared at the statue, so Tet worriedly called out to her.

“Tet.. actually, I’m thinking whether I can obtain the power to meet my older brother in this world.”

“Akari’s older brother?”

“Yup. The statue was modeled after a person whose name is Halt — Ha-ru-to. Haru-nii…died when I was five.”

Akari was the younger brother of Haruto.

However, she didn’t realize yet that the statue in front of her was based on the appearance of her brother after he was transmigrated into this world.

She possessed the skill <Extreme Intuition> bestowed by the goddess, but she hadn’t grasped and used it just like how Cain did.

“In the novel I read in my previous world, the protagonist gained power in Isekai, and he was able to save and change the fate of someone who was supposed to die in his previous world.”

If Isekai truly existed, then it wouldn’t be odd if such an ability, like in the story, would also exist.

“I want to see Haru-Nii once more.”

“It’s possible.”

“Eh?”

“Like Tet said, Akari can do it.”

“C-can do it….?”

“Akari will meet Onii-san again. Akari doesn’t have the Time Manipulation Skill yet, but that skill exists in this world.”

Of course, there was also Interworld Teleportation Magic.

Halt could already use it.

And just as Tet said, the skill that could reverse time also existed.

If Akari teleported to her previous world and reversed the time, then she could meet Haruto once again.

“Tet, i-is….is that really true?”

“Yup! Akari can get all kinds of skills from now on, and Akari will meet Onii-san for sure. Tet will help.”

“Tet!”

Akari hugged Tet really tightly.

“Let’s do our best, Akari.”

“Yup…Yup, I’ll give my all.”

Akari’s faint hope in the possibility of meeting her brother again had turn into a blazing aspiration thanks to Tet’s words.

“I think we need to start with preparation to slay the Demon King first.”

“Yup! Agree!”

“For that, we have to earn money by making items while gathering intel about the Demon King.”

“Yup, that’s right. By the way, what is Akari planning to make?”

“Bracelets, necklaces, oh and earrings too, I guess.”

Akari crafted those things as part of her hobby in her previous world.

She requested her parents to sell the items she made online, and everything she posted was sold out. That’s the reason why Akari was confident in her ability to make marketable things.

“Then, can Akari imagine the earrings that Akari made?”

“Imagine? Are you referring to shape and other stuff?”

“Yep. Picture it as clearly as you can.”

“G-Got it.”

She didn’t really understand what Tet wanted her to do, but Akari obediently followed her instructions.

“Done imagining it?”

“Yup.”

“Then, chant [Create Arms].”

“C-Create Arms.”

Akari’s hand glowed.

On her palm —

“Ehhh!?”

The pair of earrings that she just pictured in her mind appeared.

“Yup. Great job. That’s also part of Akari;s skill.”

Akari got the skill <Create Arms Equipment Creation>

No matter what kind of weapon or tool it was, as long as she could imagine it, she could create them with her hands.

“N-No way… Th-this is…”

“Will it sell?”

Akari could create whatever equipment she wanted without any expense or disadvantage.

In the first place, <Create Arms> was originally a skill that the deities themselves used. Moreover, it was a skill bestowed by the goddess of her world, who was stronger than the deities of this world, so Akari could even create legendary weapons with ease.

She could craft anything as much as she wanted, so there was no need for her to buy any equipment.

In addition to that, she also had <Automatic Stamina Recovery (Max)> so she didn’t even need to buy any restorative potions and items.

In short, she could skip almost all of the steps she thought she needed to slay the Demon King such as creating items, earning money, buying equipment and restorative items.

However —

“As expected, Akari shouldn’t sell this as it is.”

“Eh, I shouldn’t?”

“Yup, let’s see.... For example, Akari can change this stone to a gem that can be found in this world, then it’ll be fine.”

Akari was an honest person to a fault.

She felt a bit bad that she would be profiting from something that she didn’t have any trouble getting.

“I see! Then, let’s get some jewels~”

Moreover, Tet also didn’t realize yet that Akari could create all the weapons they would need to defeat the Demon King whenever she wanted.

“Tet, do you any place where we can gather gemstones?”

“Of course. Leave it to Tet!”

“I’m trusting you to lead the way, Tet.”

“Yup!”

──＊＊＊──

Akari dropped by the Guild to inform Eliza that she would be searching and gathering materials.

“Akari, be careful. Strong monsters appear in the innermost parts of the forest beside the Royal City.”

“I understand. Then, I’ll be off!”

Afterward, Akari left with Tet in her arms. She also chatted a bit with Eric when she passed by the gate, and she finally stepped outside the city.
