Chapter 48: Weapons and Armoury Purchase
I took Reina and Kayla to the blacksmith recommended by the princess.
"Coming on the princess’s introduction, I’m honored. I’m Kiririn," said the blacksmith.
Out came a very short girl with an enormous amount of hair tied roughly into two bundles. According to the princess, she was part dwarf, so despite her appearance, she was an adult.
Somehow, she seemed like she’d fit right in searching for rare gadgets in Akihabara’s electronics district.
"That’s a strong southern accent, Master," Reina said.
That’s how it sounded to Reina. Thanks to the translation perk from being summoned to this world, I could understand the local language, but to me, Kiririn’s speech sounded like fake Kagoshima dialect.
"I want to get weapons for these two," I said.
"What lovely ladies, I’m excited to help you guys," Kiririn replied.
She hopped up and down with joy. Something about her restless energy felt very otaku-like.
(She’s like the tech-obsessed types you’d find in a research lab back in my world.)
People like this often have genius-level talent in specific fields. The princess called her the kingdom’s biggest eccentric, but I felt like we might get along.
"Um, I’d like a slim sword," Reina said.
