Are the main heroines going to come soon?

When this sword was born, it was as if the world had lost its voice, and all the light was absorbed.

Rimuru and the dwarf group who didn't leave were also mesmerized by the birth of this sword.

Legendary grade weapon.

Even if this was their first time to see one, as this weapon hardly appeared in public and also few in numbers, they could tell immediately that this was that weapon.

"...did it finish?"

"Yeah."

Tamazuki also had awoken and observed his new weapon.

It is a moderately curved katana, yet unlike the color of normal katana, it is pure black with a distinct milky-colored trail that follows the edge of the blade.

Somehow, the appearance of this sword reminded him of the Milky Way in the dark sky.

Still, this weapon could evolve even more.

However, this weapon was good enough for now. The only problem was the sheath since the blade was so sharp that a standard sheath might be cut because of its sharpness. While it didn't really trouble him, even if this sword didn't have a sheath, having a sheath was cooler, right?

Yet, he had to say it amazed him since it was already night.

"It's already night, huh?"

"Yeah, you have been too focused on your weapon."

From morning to night, he had focused on his weapon, but it was all good since he could create this legendary-grade weapon.

"By the way, what's the name of this weapon?"

"Name?"

"Yeah, shouldn't you name it?"

"....."

Hearing Rimuru's question, Tamazuki wondered what he should name this weapon. Frankly, he didn't have a hobby to name something; however, when he felt that it was necessary, especially when many of his skills were named by the "Voice of the World," so somehow his inner child also felt that he wanted to start to name something, whether it was his weapon or his techniques.

"Let's see..."

Tamazuki stared at this weapon for a moment, then made up his decision. "Ginga."

"Ginga?"

"Yes, that's the name of this weapon since in the future this weapon will cut down a galaxy, so I name it Ginga (galaxy in Japanese)."

"Um, that's a good name."

Rimuru decided to ignore the part where Tamazuki bragged that he would cut down a galaxy. While he admitted that Tamazuki's swordsmanship was good, he felt that it was too far to cut down a galaxy.

Yet, in the future, Tamazuki might be able to do so.

Cutting angel, devil, and god.

Tamazuki decided to do all of them.

Nevertheless, it was a little late, and he thought of going back since he was sure that Shizu was waiting. No, they told him that Shizu had come and sent him food to eat, causing all of them to look at him in jealousy. Before he returned, he finished the food that was sent by Shizu before he walked away since the stares of Rimuru and the dwarfs started to hurt him.

This is probably what the protagonist felt when they were surrounded by many beautiful heroines and stared at angrily by the extras in the background.

Nevertheless, he didn't care and thought that it was fun to see their expressions.

However, when he went home, he was greeted by Shizu.

"Welcome back."

Shizu welcomed him with a warm and gentle smile. She wore plain clothes with an apron on her body. "You are tired, right? Do you want to take a bath or dinner first?"

"I want to eat you first."

"Eh? Eh?"

Tamazuki felt that this newlywed life wasn't bad at all.

Still, over the past few days, his days have been busy.

It was rather hard to get his hands on the sheath since he wanted to get a good quality wood—one that could grow along with the user like Magisteel, but if it's impossible, then he could only bear it by using another Magisteel, so for now, he was using his previous weapon, but while it was good, it was easily damaged as his swordsmanship wasn't something that could be handled by a normal sword.

Fortunately, this world was full of monsters, and he could use them as material for his weapon.

However, he could think of that later since he knew the days of the main heroines came was near, so, at this moment, he just stayed in the village, building his house where he could live with Shizu.

Naturally, he also learned the skills owned by Rimuru and Shizu.

After using [Predator] on Ifrit, Rimuru gained various skills from [Fire Manipulation], [Ranged Barrier], and [Body Double]. The [Fire Manipulation] aside, the last two skills were quite good for him.

As for Shizu, even though Ifrit was taken out of her body, it didn't mean she was helpless. She could use magic, and as someone who was summoned from another world, she also got a Unique Skill.

The magic that she taught him was fire magic, which was her specialty, and also summoning magic, which made her able to summon fire elementals to help her to fight.

Fire magic aside, summoning magic was quite interesting as it could summon various beings from monsters, elementals, and even daemons.

'So, should I be able to summon an angel?'

Probably, but instead of magic, he was more interested in Shizu's Unique Skill.

Degenerate.

It was a Unique Skill owned by Shizu, and it had two effects: [Syntensis] and [Separation].

The first one [Syntesis] allows the user to transform two different targets into a single object. It can be used to chain the effects of several skills together, earning the user new skills with significantly less effort than would otherwise be required.

The second one, [Separation], allows the user to release the properties inherent to the target and separate them. Examples include but are not limited to; depriving a person of skill/s (with the exception of ones bound to their soul) and removing foreign objects such as entities attempting possession or poisons from the target's body.

Those two were amazing skills, and depending on how he was using them, their use could become something impressive.

"Tamazuki, it's time for lunch."

"Wait for a moment."

Tamazuki walked down the stairs and looked at Shizu, who brought him lunch. "Oi, you guys! Go take a break!"

"It's okay, Tamazuki-sama!"

"We are not tired!"

"Yeah, we can work until tomorrow!"

The group of hobgoblins workers that helped him build the house thought that they could work even harder, or rather they felt happy to build his house.

"If I say you go take a break, then go. You are interrupting my lunch."

"...." Everyone.

Still, in the end, they could only docilely follow his order to take a break.

"What's for lunch?" Tamazuki walked to Shizu, who was waiting for him.

"Saikoro monster steak with stir-fried vegetables, salad, and also bread."

"Thank you."

"No, it's an easy thing for me." Shizu shook her head. She hardly had any skills other than fighting, so she couldn't help much. Nevertheless, she wanted to cook for him, especially when he was going to build a house for them.

"Then, let's eat together."

"Un."

As the two spread a sheet on the clean grass under the shade of the tree, they started to eat together. Still, as they ate, he felt that he should develop the food culture as there were hardly any seasonings in this world. Moreover, he also wanted sugar!

While he had prepared various seeds and let the hobgoblins grow those plants, including sugar beet, it would take a while for them to grow.

"By the way, is there rice in this world?"

"No, there isn't any." Shizu shook her head while she sighed.

Rice was the staple food of the East.

However, this world was like the West, so many of the things in this world, whether it was architecture, food, agriculture, animals, plants, and many others, were similar to those of the West.

The bread was good, but without a doubt, they wanted rice.

"After the house is ready, let's do research on food."

"Food?"

"Yeah, I plan to make shoyu (Japanese soy sauce), mirin (sweet vinegar), and miso."

"Really?" Shizu was excited.

"Help me, though."

"Um, leave it to me." Shizu nodded with a solemn expression.

"By the way, there is this costume that I want to try on for you later."

"...un." Shizu nodded while lowering her head shyly.

Yet, in that precious moment of lunch between them, someone interrupted them.

"Tamazuki-sama! Shizu-sama! A group of monsters has attacked us!"

Hobgoblin kneeled as he spoke about the seriousness of their current predicament.

While Tamazuki was speechless, he got another telepathic message from Rimuru.

'Tamazuki, come and help me!'

Looking at Shizu, who was ready to help, Tamazuki also nodded while wondering whether it was the time for the main heroines to come.
