Frontiers ~Chronicles of Bucket-san's Detailed Pioneering~ Chapter 2

When I return to the main street from the【Training school】, people upon people upon people.

The scene spreading in front of me consists of things one can't see in reality, such as uncommon hair colors, animal ears, and tails, there are even people with sharp elf-like ears. As result of having freedom over『Character creation』, there are many people with diverse appearances, but generally, everyone is relatively beautiful, aren't they?

But, the street is crowded with people almost unchanged even after receiving the tutorial rewards, so I'm not able to enjoy the fantasy scene that much.

Around two hours have pa.s.sed since then, though……

Official start is at 10 o'clock『Real time』 and『In game time』is 6 o'clock.

Because poor login servers were problems of the past, did they shift the time to avoid congestion?
But, this disappointing result is because everyone thought the same.

I push through the crowd and aim towards the【Rental production facility】.

Incidentally, these are the skills I have chosen.

Smithing Lv5/Magic formation Lv5/Magical power manipulation Lv8/Magical power enhancement Lv8/ Magical power recovery enhancement Lv8
＝＝＝＝

All the skills I was able to acquire in the tutorials are up to Lv5, and the remaining Magical power skills are Lv8.
Magical power is indispensable to production activities.

I somehow arrive at the【Rental production facility】and on the contrary to outside, there are nearly no people inside.

The reason production is not popular is because of NPCs.

Advanced AI, personalities hardly different from humans, they are NPCs that can do practically anything players can, it's also one of【Frontiers】selling points.

It's no wonder, NPCs are living in this world.

As a result, a phenomenon of NPC producers driving out player producers occurred and the beta test turned into a situation with no player production.

Thus, the there was a shortage of player producers with no fix.

Maa, the result is still an empty room where the birds chirping can be heard clearly.

Because I'm one loving player!

The shared s.p.a.ce of【Rental production facility】is for a cheap rental fee, but you have only one place per one corresponding skill.

There naturally are private rooms as well, but the prices are tripled, and severe initial funds are awaiting.

I'd like to rent a private room once money acc.u.mulates.

Completing the two hours course, I immediately start『Smithing』.

I set the recipe I got as a reward from the『Smithing』tutorial, I take all of the『Copper ore』and throw it all into the『Magic kiln』.

Because the stress in the game is reduced, I don't feel hot at all when I approach the『Magic kiln』, it's very comfortable.

These impurities are removed with『Smithing Arts/Lv1/Extraction』.
Because I just began and my level is low, I'm not able to remove all the impurities with『Smithing』yet. Therefore, I patiently and carefully continue the『Extraction』.

Skills have special techniques which consume magical power called『Arts』, if you use these well, you can speed up the process by several steps.

Besides, working patiently and carefully will greatly contribute to the related skills.

I'm not in a hurry, so I preserve slowly and patiently.

Because I have removed enough of the impurities, I finish the『Completion processing』just like during the『Magic formation』tutorial and the『Copper ingot』is complete.
It can't be helped that it took more than an hour to carefully finish removing the impurities from 6『Copper ore』and completing 6『Copper ingot』.

When the skill's level goes up, the time to complete will also shorten, so I'm working diligently.

Still, thanks to being careful and patient, the rank of my『Copper ingot』are higher than that sold at【Rental production facility】.
It's said that even low-level rank will rise faster if you do it patiently and carefully. I'm glad I got this information from beta testers, but it's not that surprising.

All finished『Copper ingot』except one are put into the『Item box』, and the real challenge starts now.

I insert the『Copper ingot』into the『Magic kiln』, and strongly imagine the finished product while using『Smithing Arts/Lv1/Molding』and swinging the hammer with all my might.

Simply swinging the hammer is enough, so it's easy.

I heard that you could use the same process as in reality if you don't use the『Arts』, but I honestly am not interested.

I strike and strike, until it's according to my image and finish with the『Completion processing』.

I was so pleased by the completion of equipment that would become my trademark I almost cheered three times unconsciously.

A slit for securing visibility is placed in the cylindrical form, and the mouth part can be slid to open and close.

It finished according to my image.
I can't bear it because it's possible to do this with just one『Copper ingot』.

「Saa, let's wear it~」

I enthusiastically gaze at the『Copper Bucket Helm』for a while.

Once again, my【Frontiers】starts from here.

My planned trademark partner, the『Bucket helm』has been completed!
