Chapter 104:

[Art]

The time is the early 21st century.

In the secret dungeon, on the 10th floor, Ezuki Nakihito, who encountered the boss-level monster [Queen of Flies (temporary name)] is now in a battle.

Despite being injured in the fight, Nakihito manages to escape, but unfortunately, he loses his left leg due to the wounds.

However, displaying his inherent eccentricity and introverted nature, he locks himself in the dungeon's anteroom and diligently immerses himself in creating his prosthetic leg.

"(Powawawawawa) Hehehe This skill called [Art] is amazing. Creating things becomes fun, and I can concentrate so well"

While crafting my prosthetic leg, I somehow gained a new skill, [Art]. By designing blueprints for my prosthetic leg and processing the exoskeleton of the King Cockroach with magic, I discovered that I could self-learn this skill.

However, the effects of [Art] are not limited to that. As expected from the skill named [Art], I become adept at drawing, and there seems to be a positive adjustment to the dexterity attribute. Well, my Dexterity is still elusive and missing somewhere. Seriously, one might think you're a wanderer.

"All right It's complete. But I can't test it until the injuries are fully healed."

My prosthetic leg. Modestly speaking, thanks to the effects of the [Art] skill, it turns out quite well. Inside, a frame similar to a sports prosthetic leg is installed, and the tendons of the Kamadouma are utilized. The ankle is designed to have tension in all directions, allowing it to bend according to the angle when the sole touches the ground. When the foot is lifted from the ground, it naturally returns to a neutral state. In other words, for walking, this prosthetic leg alone is sufficient without applying any force.

Of course, this is not enough for power, so I plan to inject slime-like fluid inside and control it with magic.

Though Machii and Shizue often met at university, since Ruu was always by Machi's side, Manami called Shizue to catch up and seek advice.

"Sigh What's going on with you, Machi?"

"Oh, Shizu, can I talk to you for a bit?"

"[Oh, Manami, what's up?]"

Manami shared her current situation with Shizue over the phone.

"Sigh You're in quite a situation. That's really tough."

"Oh, come on, Shizu, don't say it like it's someone else's problem. You have debts to master, right?"

Machi brought up Egetsu to ask for Shizue's help.

[Well, I did receive various treats, and you did come to visit my house the other day.]

"See! So, please help me"

[Well, that's impossible for me]

"What? Why!?"

Shizue, who respects those who are more experienced in love than herself, says it's impossible, shocking Manami.

[Well, because Coach and Ruu-chan's love is a delicate matter. If it were a more mature romance, I could give advice, but]

"Oh that's true"

Ruu is too embarrassed even to hold hands with her lover, let alone kiss. Considering her level of confusion, Machi couldn't imagine that Shizue's advice, an expert in romance, would be helpful.

"Now, what do you think I should do, Shizu?"

[Hmm Well, the quickest way might be to let the two of them meet and reaffirm their feelings for each other. What do you think?]

"Oh, Shizu, do you also think that?"

[Well, what about it? If you think so, then do it.]

"Well, I was thinking about that, but"

Machi replied to the message from Ezuki, whom she had neglected for a while, but this time, there was no response, not even a phone call.

[Sigh, this is troublesome.]

"I know, right?"

[I understand. I'll try contacting him from my side too, so don't give up and try to contact him.]

"Yeah, please, Shizu. Well then (click)"

[Haah]

Machi hung up the phone with Shizue, gazing at the evening sky that had darkened considerably. Once again, she let out a deep sigh.
