I have Became Able to Do Anything with My Growth Cheat but I Can not Seem to Get out of Being Jobless

(307) This and that before dinner, Guardian Sword
Translator: Tseirp
“Ichino-sama, I have purchased a set . Also, I bought gallnut and iron sulfide!”
“Ah, right, she needed iron sulfide as well . I forgot about that . ”
Gallnut left too strong an impression .
“Leaving that aside, you managed to buy quite a lot . Did you have enough money?”
“Yes, I still have around half remaining . ”
“Half?”
I looked at the shop owner old lady and saw that she was quite tired .
It seemed that Carol negotiated quite excessively .
“It’s okay, I made sure to calculate that the store retains a profit . After all, I didn’t wish to drive a deal that would cause hate . ”
In other words, she would be able to get a further discount if she was prepared to be hated .
So frightening .
I felt bad for the old lady so I secretly bought the seeds of a few medicinal grasses such as managrass without Carol knowing .
With those, I have the option to cultivate medicinal plants such as managrass in My World .
“『Drying』 . This skill is a lot more useful than expected . I was sure that I would only use it to dry meat or rations or dry my clothes and shoes that are wet from a rainy day . ”
Before dinner . In my room in the log house in My World, I was using Drying on the medicinal grass that I had artificially hastened their growth .
Normally they would have to be dried over a couple of days but I could easily be done with the drying process with the Drying skill .
Haru seemed to have acquired the same skill as well so I could probably ask her to help with this task the next time .
I heard a knock on the door just as I had that thought .
“You can come in . ”
I knew even if I didn’t ask who it was .
After hearing my reply, Carol opened the door and entered .
Instead of her usual clothes, she was in her underwear that was similar to a negligee .
“Thank you for waiting . Ichino-sama . ”
“Sorry for making you wait . ”
“No . I would be lying if I said I didn’t wait but Ichino-sama had to wait too . Carol is happy knowing that Ichino-sama waited for me . ”
Carol smiled at me . That smile was not the smile of a young girl but a smile from a 17-year-old maiden .
“Pardon me . ”
Carol’s appearance changed as she said that .
She turned into her adult version .
” … Ichino-sama —”
“Carol —”
I led Carol to the bed, sat beside her and touched Carol’s breast as I was invited .
It felt extremely good and soft . My heart was beating loudly .
But —
“It feels different after all . ”
“What’s different?”
“I like Carol . But the Carol I like is not the Carol you are now . ”
I hugged her and requested .
“Please return to your usual appearance . ”
“That’s unfair, Ichino-sama . You will always think of Carol as a kid when I am in this form . ”
Carol returned to her original form .
My heart started pounding again .
“Sorry . But I realized . The Carol I like, the Carol that makes my heart beat is this Carol after all . ”
“Carol is still Carol no matter what my outer appearance is . ”
“That is true . But I guess I am worse than I thought . I like the Carol you are now more than any other form you have . ”
” …… That’s really unfair … Ichino-sama . ”
Carol whispered into my ear and bit my ear playfully .
【Ichinojo leveled up】
【Philanderer skill: 「Art Magic」acquired】
【Job: Gambler is now available】
※※※
That day after dinner, I tried using the magic I learned from Philanderer — Art Magic .
My magical power mutated into something similar to ink and I rushed to take out paper and drip the ink on it . Upon doing so, that ink freely moved as I willed it to .
(Does this mean this spell lets me draw whatever I picture in my head?)
It was a skill that was extremely wasted on Philanderer and I felt that it should be acquired by the Artist job .
Of course, that was the dream magic for manga artists — the drawing was done while I was lost in thought and I immediately tore the drawing in two . I prayed that the ink won’t flow and make a mess — actually no, please make a mess of the drawing .
Why did I paint Carol’s nude body — well actually I knew the reason why .
The first time with Haru was quite tough but comparatively, although the first time with Carol was not so bad that it was miserable but it was hard . I’ll leave it up to your imagination as to how it was hard .
… It wasn’t because we did it before dinner .
Carol probably can’t walk today . I offered to apply healing magic but she refused so I guess I’ll at least bring her dinner to her room .
Despite that experience, I realized that it made me more happy than embarrassed .
As I was thinking —
“Master, do you have a minute?”
I heard Haru’s voice .
“Ah, please wait — yup, okay . ”
I threw the painting that was torn in two into my item bag and invited Haru in .
“Master, actually I wanted to talk . ”
Haru said and asked me for advice .
It wasn’t regarding Carol . Haru had congratulated me before I could even tell her . Apparently, she could smell Carol on me . I didn’t know where the scent could linger even after I had applied Clean to clean myself .
Leaving that aside, now I should focus on Haru .
I listened to her .
“It’s certainly quite worn out . ”
She has been using a short sword and the Fire Dragon Fang until now and that short sword was the issue . It was maintained regularly but it was quite worn by now and the blade seemed dull .
I was curious how she could wear the blade down in such a short span of time but well, it’s Haru we’re talking about . She probably fought in quite a reckless manner .
“All right . Then tomorrow, before we leave let’s get a new one from a weapon shop . ”
“Er … if possible, I would like Master to make one . ”
“Me?”
“The sword on Master’s waist — Master made that, right?”
She said and pointed at the katana on my waist .
“This is actually not a sword but a katana (blade) . ”
I corrected her and drew the sword .
It was a beautiful katana made in the image of Haru .
“Yeah, I made it . In the dwarf village . ”
“It’s a very pretty blade . ”
“Yeah, it’s a work I’m proud of . But I’m surprised you can tell that I made it . ”
“Do I call it … soul? I feel such power emanating from it . ”
I wonder if that was from the inscription?
The blade was inscribed with the name 「White Wolf Fang」 .
A blade made in the image of Haru . Its name carried the meaning that it would never break .
Well, the katana certainly contained my thoughts or something like a soul .
Haru did not have any skill or a particular perception of such things . She probably felt it with her heart .
I’ll interpret it as such .
“But it has to do with the materials . ”
For metals, I only have the silver mined from My World . And perhaps the mithril that the Dark Elves have . A weapon made of silver will probably not satisfy her needs and I will need more Alchemist levels in order to smelt mithril from its ore . And I do not have enough Blacksmith level to work with mithril either .
Even if I have tamahagane, a katana (blade) is out of the question .
She doesn’t have the Katana (Blade) Equip skill .
” … All right . But I have to gather the materials so I can’t get it done immediately . ”
I said and took out the set of blacksmithing tools I prepared when I made the steel sword in the past and instantly made a steel dagger .
In the end, I made an inscription .
Although it was makeshift, that sword was a sword that would protect Haru’s life .
I didn’t make the sword half-heartedly .
“Haru, use this . ”
“This —”
Haru examined the steel dagger .
“Master, I sense a strange force from this sword . ”
“It’s name is 【Guardian sword】 . A sword that protects Haru and my life . ”
“A sword that protects Master’s life —”
Haru looked at the sword and tears swelled in her eyes .
… Eh?
Wait, why is she crying?
“Master has become much stronger than I had imagined . I was uneasy . If Master actually needed me . But Master has given me this sword and asked me to protect your life . That makes me happy . ”
“Haru, you’re exaggerating . It is stronger than regular steel swords due to the inscription but it is really just a makeshift sword so I would be troubled if you treat it as something so impressive . ”
” — That is not true . This sword will be my family heirloom and when I fail to protect Master, I am prepared to take my own life with this sword . ”
“You’re exaggerating way too much! Or rather, please don’t take your own life with a sword meant to protect life . ”
Also, please don’t make it a family heirloom .
Once I marry Haru, I don’t want a sword that I made in a minute to become a family heirloom .
— Sigh, maybe this was a failure .
I have to make a new sword for Haru as soon as possible .
