The next morning, Leon got up early.
After a simple wash, Leon left the library without disturbing Hestia who was still sleeping, and rushed to the Hephaestus familia.
Since Tsubaki knew that Leon would come to get his weapon early in the morning, she had woken up very early.
"Here, it has been restored to peak condition."
"I also polished it specially. It is now better than even when it was brand new."
Tsubaki handed Leon's long sword to him and said with a smile.
"Thank you."
Leon took the sword and unsheathed it. Then, he observed it carefully and found that it was really better than before.
"Hmm."
"I am now your exclusive blacksmith. You can come to me to order any equipment you need."
"By the way, you don't have any defensive equipment. Do you need me to make a set of defensive equipment for you?"
Tsubaki hummed, then frowned after taking a look at Leon.
"Thank you, but I don't need it." Leon smiled and declined.
"Yeah, okay."
"If you need it in the future, just come to me directly."
Tsubaki nodded without saying anything more.
"Yeah."
After chatting with Tsubaki for a while, Leon left the Hephaestus familia and rushed to Blue Pharmacy.
He had forgotten to replenish his potion reserve last night, so he wanted to replenish it right now.
Leon hadn't bought too many potions that would restore his mind in the past two days. After all, there is no need to create magic in the dungeon. So, the toll on his mind won't be too great.
So his potion demand had returned to normal. This made Naaza look at Leon with resentment, as if he was a heartless man.
"Do you really not need more potions that recover the mind? Leon-san."
Naaza said, looking at Leon with expectation.
Leon: -_-
"I don't need too much. I just need the same amount as the potions that restore physical strength and heal injuries."
Facing Naaza's expectant eyes, Leon sweated for a while, and then said firmly.
Why buy so many potions? He can't use so many.
"That's a pity."
Seeing Leon's firm refusal, Naaza sighed and had to give up.
'Regret? This is just your regret...'
Looking at Naaza's regretful look, Leon complained in his heart.
Immediately, Leon took the potions and prepared to leave. He really couldn't stand Naaza's resentful little eyes.
However, just when Leon was about to leave, Naaza called Leon.
"Leon-san, do you accept commissions?"
"Hmm? Commissions?"
"What commission?"
Leon paused and asked.
"A request to collect materials."
"There is a kind of fluorescent powder on the sixth floor, which is a material for potions. If possible, please help me collect some."
Naaza nodded and then expressed her thoughts.
The materials on the market are brought back from the dungeon by familias that specialize in selling them. Materials acquired through this method are more expensive.
But if you directly entrust adventurers to collect materials, the price will be much lower.
Entrust Leon to collect materials, this is the idea that Naaza had come up with in the past two days.
Naaza had seen that Leon seemed to be doing well in the dungeon. So, he should be able to collect materials during the adventure. So Naaza tentatively proposed this commission.
Giving Leon this commission can also bring Leon some extra income.
If it is possible, it is great, and if it is not possible, it doesn't matter.
"Is that so?"
"Okay, I will take this commission."
"How much do you need?" Leon nodded and agreed after hearing this.
"One pound."
....
After leaving, Leon rushed towards the Tower of Babel.
However, as expected, Leon was stopped by Syr again when passing by the Hostess of Fertility.
"Syr-san, I really don't need a lunch box. Please don't bother me."
Leon shirked and left quickly, leaving Syr with a lunch box in her hand, looking helpless.
"It's really a headache. This kid is stubborn."
Looking at Leon's back, Syr rubbed her eyebrows and murmured in her heart.
Originally, she wanted to use this method to get closer to Leon. But he isn't giving her any chance at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that she hadn't found out which familia Leon belonged to and where he lived, she would have really wanted to go to his house directly.
(PS: In the original story, Freya didn't know where Bell lived and which familia he belonged to at the beginning.)
Looking at the back that gradually disappeared from her sight, Syr sighed and returned to the tavern with her lunch box.
"What, hit a wall again?"
Inside the tavern, Mia looked at Syr who had come in and put on a teasing smile on her face.
"Leon-san seems to have some misunderstandings about me and has been unwilling to accept my kindness."
Syr looked distressed, and the smile on her face was a little far-fetched.
"That boy has a keen sense." Mia smiled meaningfully.
As soon as these words came out, Syr's body stiffened. She naturally knew what Mia meant, so she couldn't refute it.
And at this moment, Ryuu came out of the kitchen.
She asked, "Syr, do you like that fellow very much?"
"Yes, I like Leon-san very much, but it's a pity that Leon-san doesn't like me."
Syr rubbed her face to make her cheeks less stiff, then turned to look at Ryuu and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ryuu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said nothing.
Since Syr likes that guy, then she should try to take care of him as much as possible in the future.
