Chapter 299 - Let's Examine the Exclusive Equipment

After returning to the East Dragon Village, the White Party had decided to stay until the equipment Kazane requested from Suza was completed.

During that time, Dragonization training, which also served as rehabilitation for Naga, was added to Kazane's special training menu. The Four Guardian Sword Dragons participated as well, and the courtyard of the Great Dragon Palace ended up looking like the scene of a final kaiju showdown.

Though since Kazane couldn't use Skills during Dragonization and her Blue Dragon figure wasn't even an Adult Dragon yet, she was inferior to the surrounding dragons, who were in the domain of God Dragons. To overturn that... well, it wasn't to that degree, but by combining Angelization with her dragon figure, her wings became like a bird of prey's, and she became able to use the Skills『Aegis Shield』and『Storm Wing』. As a result, she was able to strike back at East Blue Season Sei.

Also, Rynox desired a match against Sieg until the end, but she refused. That was partially because of the 10 day limit, but it was also because she didn't want to unreservedly use her trump card too much. Also, since Rynox had government affairs to deal with, he couldn't stay in the village forever, so while he was dejected, he returned to the capital city Deer South.

The days passed by, and now it was exactly one week after Kazane and the others had returned to the village. In the workshop of East Dragon Village Zegan's South Seal Palace, the new equipment devised by Kazane was finally almost completed.

◎ East Dragon Village Zegan, South Seal Palace. Suza's Workshop

「Yo, Suzsan, how is it going?」

『Excuse me for disturbing you.』

「Welcome, Kazane-sama, Tatsuo-sama. If you're talking about the armor, it's going well.」

Suza pleasantly welcomed Kazane and Tatsuo, who had entered the workshop. At present, Suza was working in his Humanized state to create the product requested by Kazane. It seemed he would use his dragon figure when he was making huge swords and the like for dragons to use, but as might be expected, it seemed he couldn't make human-sized armor while in his dragon figure.

And black armor around 3 meters tall was standing behind Suza. With the Dairokuten Maou armor as the base, it was the fine product that Kazane had requested, and it was now one step short of being completed.

「Or rather, I feel like you ask the same thing every day.」

「Eh, isn't that just in your imagination?」

Kazane-san was feigning ignorance. But, as Suza said, it was true that Kazane had come here every day since making her request.

That was partly because she was simply interested, but since the equipment would be for Kazane's exclusive use, there were also issues with the necessary Magic Power amount and necessary Skills. Naturally, Kazane herself needed to make those adjustments.

Though even that had ended yesterday. It was currently being assembled.

「Ooh, it finally has a human shape.」

Kazane muttered while looking at the 3 meter tall black lustre armor in front of her. Suza seemed satisfied as he nodded and replied.

「As you requested, the chest part on the front can be opened so that you can enter inside. Indestructible Curtains are tucked between and fixed in place by the surrounding Adamantium frame in the interior, so even in the worst case, there will be no worries about lack of defense.」

The chest part Suza talked about was currently tightly closed, and it was made to look like it didn't open. It was configured to open through Kazane's magical power authentication, and it could be opened and closed according to Kazane's will.

「It's blacker than before, isn't it?」

「Since its magical power has run out. When you equip it and pour in your magical power, the surface will change to have a golden glow. Well, the parts reinforced with Adamantium will remain silvery, though.」

As Suza said, the Adamantium brought from the floating island was used in various places, such as the gaps in the armor and decorative parts. Adamantium had well-established defense ability. It was an adequate material for reinforcing the monster material.

『By the way, why is the face part flat? If I remember correctly, the Supreme Ruler's Mask goes there, doesn't it?』

Tatsuo asked while looking at the head part of the armor. The Supreme Ruler's Mask that Kazane obtained on the floating island was supposed to be an important part of this armor, but the face part where it should be inserted was completely covered with a metal plate.

「Yes, even now, the mask is there. However, when Kazane-sama isn't equipping it, it seems she'll be using it as Living Armor, so the visor will usually be down to hide it.」

「Despite appearances, it's a very valuable item. We're doing it this way because it won't cause problems if it isn't exposed to public notice, Tatsuo.」

Tatsuo cried Kuwaa and nodded. It seemed he was convinced.

「And when it's used as Living Armor, the cloak and four back arms are stored, right?」

「Yes. It isn't prepared yet, but the development is on schedule. Now, the two horns on the head will also be stored when it's Living Armor. The mask's hair also won't come out when the armor isn't equipped, and the color of the armor will change back to black from gold. The Muscle Clay will expand and the size will change, so the appearance will be completely different when it's used as Living Armor and when Kazane-sama is equipping it.」

「That's nice. Having a transformation that completely changes the appearance.」

It was a mechanism that truly tickled her chuuni heart.

「And this more or less can no longer be called armor, so I named the form before transformation『Dairokuten Maou』and the form after transformation『Ashura King』. What do you think?」

Kazane's chuuni mind trembled after Suza's words.

「Yeah. That's so cool. I'll go with that.」

「Thank you.」

Seeing Kazane's satisfied face, Suza thought (that was correct) and nodded. However, Kazane groaned and corrected「After all.」

「But I think one name is better? Well then, shall we call it Rokuten-kun? Let's call the normal form『Dairokuten Maou』mode and the transformed version『Ashura King』mode.」

After those words, Suza said「Eh?  Rokuten-ku... eh?」but he immediately swallowed his words. Kazane was the one who would use it. The name the person herself desires is best.... he thought while powerlessly hanging his head before resuming the conversation.

「Ahーyes. And for the power, the Power Orb (small) returned from Naga is inserted in the waist, so it can act autonomously when it's Living Armor. There should be no shortage with that power source.」

Even if Kazane's Magic Power ran out, the power source could change from her to the Power Orb (small), so it would always be able to move.

「And how about the weapons?」

Currently, there were no weapons installed in the armor in front of her. Kazane had already arranged for their creation, so she was curious.

「I'm currently putting the finishing touches on them in another place. As planned, the main weapons will be the Dairokuten Maou odachi and the 3 meter class magic sword『Decapitation』 provided by Kazane-sama, which has been reinforced and remodelled into a zanbato with Adamantium. For the four arms on the back, there are 2 Odanobunaga odachis and two odachis with the same shape made of Adamantium.」

There were two main 3 meter swords, and the remaining four were 1.5 meters. Thinking normally, there was no way they could be properly swung, but with Kazane's Skill『Monkey's Strong Arm』and Muscle Clay, she expected it to be possible.

「When it's Living Armor, the odachis will be stored on its back as decorative wings, and the Dairokuten Maou odachi can be stored inside the zanbato.」

「You went wild, didn't you.」

Kazane said happily. The zanbato『Decapitation』also served as a sheath, and its shape would change into an overlapping zanbato when it was Living Armor.

「Kazane-sama likes such things, right?」

To Suza's reply, Kazane replied with a revolting complacent smile. Of course she liked it. Rather, she loved it.

Visit readel.me for extra chapters.

「Yeah. Using only Adamantium would have been fine, but it's hard to throw away the growth factor and self-repairing ability of the monster materials.」

Equipment made with Odanobunaga materials possessed self-repairing ability. Actually, the chest part of the carapace that was pierced by Jinrai and Sieg had already healed. It was a wonderful ability.

「In addition, the spell formula to temporarily block the functioning of your real body's limbs in order to use the artificial arms and legs has already been included. The test was successful, and I think there will be no problems in operation, but please test it later just in case.」

「Yeah, understood. That was the real bottleneck. I'm glad you could deal with it.」

Prosthetic arms, legs, etc. couldn't be used unless those limbs were lost. That was the limitation from Zexiahart's system, but by using magic to remove her real body's physical functions, she would be able to use them. Even though it had four extra arms her real body didn't have, with her Six-sword Style Skill, she could operate six arms.

By the way, when Kazane entered the armor, she would be fixed in a curled up posture while grabbing her knees. Given that, it might be possible to say that it had gone past being a power suit into being a robot, but the feeling of operating it was like moving her own limbs, similar to the sensation of moving her dragon body during Dragonization. Furthermore, with this armor, Kazane could use her Skills without restrictions.

「However, long-term use is dangerous.」

「Yeah. Well, it can only last for 15 minutes at full power, so there's no problem.」

Exactly as Kazane answered, it couldn't be used for a long time in the first place, which was also the weak point of this armor. The performance was too high, so the fuel consumption was also correspondingly bad. However, given Kazane's current fighting ability, there was the possibility that if they didn't include that much, she would become weaker if she wore it.

「Well, there's also the question of how many opponents can withstand this at full power.」

So saying, Suza looked at the armor Rokuten-kun.

This was equipment that could only be handled by Kazane due to her surplus Magic Power from her『Crimson Saint Coffin』and the like. For the average person, it would only last a few minutes, and a person without the necessary Skills wouldn't be able to move it in the first place. The words『exclusive use equipment』resounded and greatly excited Kazane.

「Can I operate it before the day is over?」

「Yes. You should be able to break it in this evening.」

「I'm looking forward to it.」

Kazane's expression as she said that was extremely bright.
