Chương 261: Tsukasa isn't a good liar

Gareth, who was being stared at by Finn and Tsukasa, felt a shudder.

"Don't worry, I have the antidote," Tsukasa said and showed a bottle of antidote in his hand.

While everyone was focused on the magic gun, Riveria and Finn quickly focused on the antidote. "Tsukasa, can you make a potion?!"

Tsukasa was being held by Riveria, and Finn was speechless, but he could feel it was getting troublesome, and his time to become stronger would be reduced, so he lied without hesitation. "No."

"....."

"I can make an antidote, but not a potion. It's a different type of thing after all," Tsukasa said with a sigh.

"....." Loki.

Finn and Riveria didn't feel disappointed. Instead, it was good to know they knew Tsukasa had knowledge over medicine, especially on the antidote. After all, they knew how hard it was to learn the knowledge to create potions, especially when that knowledge was monopolized by the medicinal type of Familia.

Unless Tsukasa was taught by someone, got an inheritance from someone, or entered the medicine type of Familia, it would be hard to learn how to make a potion.

"Well, we're here to test the power of the magic gun, right? How about we test it now? I am sure Gareth-san is already impatiently waiting for us. I can see he's so excited to become the life target for my magic gun," Tsukasa said with a gentle smile.

"Oh? Gareth, is that true? I know that I can count on you," Finn said with a childish smile.

"..." Gareth.

"..." Riveria.

'Devil...' Everyone thought at this moment.

Still, the girls flushed and felt their faces were red from the excitement when they thought they would be bullied by Tsukasa.

Gareth let out a long sigh before he patted his chest several times and shouted, "Then, come! Let this old man test the power of that magic gun!" His shout echoed through space. Even if he was old, his spirit didn't lose to the youngsters, and frankly, he was also quite curious about the power of the magic gun and wanted to test whether it would affect him or not.

Hearing those words, Tsukasa didn't do anything and just stared at Finn.

On the other hand, Finn glanced at Tsukasa and must admit this young man was smart. Not only was his IQ high, but also his EQ was high. After all, even if Tsukasa was a genius, Gareth was an older member, and of course, Gareth needed some respect from the other members even if the Loki Familia had always treated everyone in the Familia as a family.

If Tsukasa shot Gareth, it might bring a conflict.

However, if it was Finn, no one would say anything.

One might think too much since no one would think something complicated like that.

However, surprisingly, someone could be so petty and small-minded. Therefore, instead of betting on something, it was better to do something steadily without any consequence.

Tsukasa also had been living in Japan, a place where it had a deformed society where the older people were respected even if they were useless. They only cared about the age and how long one had been in the organization, not the ability, but it was also because of this that his EQ had been trained to the maximum, so he was the master of the matter of relationships.

Finn looked at Gareth and asked, "Gareth, are you ready?"

"I am! You can shoot me anytime, Finn!" Gareth shouted and stood tall, waiting for the bullet.

Finn also didn't hesitate to shoot Gareth's body.

The sound of the blast sounded, and a small part of Gareth's clothes melted.

Gareth didn't wear armor, so it was normal for his clothes to be penetrated. However, as a Level 6 adventurer who specialized in strength and endurance, his body wasn't easily penetrated. Still, when the bullet from the magic gun hit his body, he frowned and saw part of his stomach was sizzling, which made him uncomfortable. Then, slowly, he felt his body was weakened, but he still stood tall. However, inwardly, he was dumbfounded by the power of the magic gun and could tell how strong it was.

Gareth even believed a Level 5 adventurer might have a hard time standing up if they were shot.

Still, for him, this magic gun was nothing.

"How is it, Gareth?" Finn asked.

"Hahaha." Gareth laughed and said, "It's awesome! That thing is powerful!" He then looked at Tsukasa and asked, "Boy, can you give me the antidote?" While this magic gun was nothing, it made his stomach, and it made him strange.

"Here."

Gareth received the antidote thrown by Tsukasa and drank it without hesitation. Then, his body became comfortable, and he let out a sigh of relief. Still, he looked at Tsukasa and praised him. "Haha, this thing is awesome! I feel better just by drinking it."

Finn frowned while looking at the magic gun since he could see how powerful it was. He could tell this thing could kill someone easily. After all, even a Level 6 adventurer like Gareth would be affected.

Finn believed someone in Level 3, 4, or even five might even be killed by this magic gun as long as they were shot.

However, it wouldn't be easy to shoot the Level 5 adventurer since their sense was heightened.

Even if the magic bullet was fast, it hadn't reached the speed of sound.

Tsukasa knew the speed of the bullet was relatively slow, but it couldn't be helped since the part of the bullet was liquid, and if it was too fast, the poison might burn out before it reached the target.

"Tsukasa, isn't this thing too dangerous? What if it's stolen?" If it was held by him or the other executive members, he didn't think too much since no one would be able to steal them. However, it was given by Line. He was afraid it might be stolen by someone, especially when this magic weapon could be used forever.

"You don't need to worry. I have made it so it can only be used by the members of the Loki Familia," Tsukasa said since he had anticipated this matter.

"Is that so? Did you add Loki's blood or hair on it?" Finn asked curiously.

"Well, something similar." Tsukasa coughed awkwardly while looking at Loki apologetically.

"....." Loki.

"That's good." Finn sighed in relief since, this way, there was no need to worry about this matter anymore. He then returned the magic gun to Line, which made her sigh in relief. However, he looked at Tsukasa and asked, "By the way, Tsukasa, can you make a similar magic weapon again?"

Everyone looked at Tsukasa anticipatedly since they also wanted something similar.

However, Tsukasa raised his hands, showing a helpless sigh, and said, "Impossible. Sorry, I can't do it. I am not sure why, but I can't make something similar no matter how many times I tried it before. Also, it takes too much time to make it, and it's troublesome to get the materials since they're pretty rare. I am lucky that I can get some of the materials during my hunt before, but I am not sure about the future." He lied again since he didn't really want to meet a troublesome situation where he was forced to make everyone a magic weapon.

Everyone let out a helpless sigh, and they felt disappointed, but it couldn't be helped since Tsukasa couldn't do it.

"So as long as there's material, you can make them?" Finn asked.

"I can, but I don't really want to make something similar." Tsukasa shook his head and said, "Rather, we'll have the expedition soon, right? If possible, can you let me have some of the materials for those monsters? I want to create something with that." He just wanted to train his craft, especially when there were a variety of monsters in the dungeon, so he wanted to see his limit.

"Yes, you can have them." Finn nodded without hesitation. As for Tsukasa's rejection to make something similar, he didn't care much since he knew a crafter was usually an artist, so they didn't want to make something similar unless they were an apprentice or had a business-oriented mind.

Finn knew if Tsukasa didn't think about Line, Tsukasa might not make such a magic weapon at all and just focus on getting stronger.

However, Finn was alright with it, but suddenly he thought it might be good to expand the Twilight Manor, so Tsukasa could have a free space where Tsukasa could create various things.

The Loki Familia was an expedition type of Familia. The only thing that they didn't lack was the materials of the monsters since they could hunt them anytime.

Now, with someone that was able to create an unbreakable magic weapon, without a doubt, the Loki Familia would become even stronger.

Finn's palms became hot, but then he reminded everyone in this place to keep everything in this place as a secret. Also, while the magic weapon was powerful, it had a limitation, such as it could only be used when one had magic. As for the ones who didn't have magic, they could only use it a few times, even if the magic weapon was unbreakable. Lastly, it was rather fragile, so it could easily be destroyed.

Everyone nodded and vowed to keep everything they had seen today a secret. Also, they calmed down from the excitement of the magic weapon and thought of relying on their power to become stronger.

Tsukasa looked at Finn and thought this guy was really a good leader since this way, he wouldn't be pressured to make a magic weapon, and no one would ask him. Still, he knew he needed to explain everything to Loki since this woman had been staring at him for a while for lying many times without batting his eyes.
