What is this ‘Dimensional Chat’ ?

Chapter 55. Calm Before the Strom



"Honoured Blacksmith? Appraisal!" the sword uses skill to peek at the status of a dwarf in front of him.

"Is he a legit stupid sword?" Satria asks the man identity to Fran's sword.

"Yep... He is very good at his job. Don't worry he is not an enemy and we better listen to what he wants from us." The sword told them to loosen up and learn the motive of this legendary blacksmith.

"Are you perhaps talking with this young lady's intelligence sword?" The dwarf sees Satria have a conversation with the sword.

Satria shrugged his shoulder. "How about you told us your reason first for following us?"

"Hahaha... Fine. I heard you looking for equipment right? I already following you guys since this young lady defeated the hoodlum in Adventure Guild and I wanted to show you my shop. I... You know? Only sell my creation to people I deem talented and you all are interesting individuals who are worthy of my creation." The dwarf explains his reason for following them.

"You are very confident in your skills, are you? I need to replenish my weapon and we still haven't found a good place in this town. I think we should check his shop, What do you think guys?" Naruto wants to buy some weapons like Kunai, Shuriken, And others too.

"Sure, I want to check his shop and see if there good item for me." Fran agrees with him and wants to buy something with her money.

"I am fine with it, I hope you do not make us disappointed like many other weapon stores we visit in this town Mr Granzel," Satria doesn't need a weapon because he is a brawler type but there is no loss in visiting this man secret shop and it's all for Fran sake.

"Wonderful! Please follow me, dear customer."

They follow the blacksmith to his shop and his shop is indeed hidden well.

This man certainly doesn't want a random person to visit his shop for real.

"I have a question Mr. Granzel," Satria said to him.

"Yes? What do you want to know from me?" Granzel replied to Satria.

"Why you don't want others to buy your stuff? You understand right? That was not a good move for a merchant to decline the customer and if your weapon truly has great quality as you claim it surely can help others to survive in this harsh world." Satria already predicted his answer on his mind but he wants to hear from the man himself.

"There was a time I felt like that young man but when I trusted my fine creation to an untalented individual they never came back alive because they put their trust in my weapon too much instead of their skill. The weapon? Lost without a way to recover it and that was such a waste material. After experiencing it many times I decided to change my way and here we are." The blacksmith tells him the reason why he came to be like this and the group members respected his decisions.

"Hey... Ask him how he figures out I'm was intelligence weapon?" The sword whispers to Satria and wants to search solution for this. He doesn't want a stranger to peek at his status.

"Strange... Why have I heard the sound of a spineless man here but can't find him anywhere? Do you hear it, Fran? The sound of a crybaby." Satria asks Fran who is carried by him in his arms and acts like not hear him then taunts the sword.

"Fran!!! Did you hear what he said? He is a bully and a bad guy. Please protect your sensei pride and I'm not a crybaby!" The sword whined at his wielder.

Fran pinches Satria's cheeks. "Don't bully my sensei, Shin, I want you both to be friends from now on."

"Me? A friend with him? Not in thousands of years." The sword refuses to reconcile with Satria.

"Who wants to be friends with a pervert who has a dream of being Harem King? The feeling is mutual." Satria pouted and looked away from her

Naruto sighed. "They're so troublesome."

"So, this is your store?" Satria looked around and there were indeed many good items displayed there. "Hoy, Stupid sword! Look this sword is even better than you. Say goodbye to Fran now hahaha." He picked up Red Sword who have better stats than the Fran sword.

"Noooo!!! Fran you not gonna abandon me right?" The sword asks her wielder with a pleading face.

Fran shakes her head. "I not gonna abandon you no matter what Sensei and Shin apologize to Sensei now or I will be angry with you."

"Sorry... Cry baby sword." Satria apologised to him and stuck his tongue out to Fran's sword behind her.

"I am not a crybaby!!! Take back what you said."

"They are so childish, Do you have a weapon like this?" Naruto shows his Kunai and Shuriken to the blacksmith.

"Hmm... This is material I never see here. Where did you get this weapon?" The blacksmith never sees the weapon Naruto shows to him, The metal is like a conductor of unknown energy.

Naruto scratched his hair. 'Impossible huh? To replicate my weapon. Well... It uses a godly alloy called hihiirokane as material after all.'

The blacksmith gets an idea. "I maybe cannot create exactly what you show to me but I can create similar items like your weapon. How about that?"

"Really? Then... I counting on you Mr. Granzel." Naruto accepts his offer to him.

"How about the young lady? Anything interest you here?" The Blacksmith asks Fran who right now scolding Satria and her sword.

"Ah yes... I want to see the armour you have here." Fran doesn't need any weapon and needs armour to protect herself, Shin's gift is just normal clothes and she doesn't want her precious gift to get destroyed when in battle.

"Sure... Wait for a second."

The blacksmith brought four armour suitable for her from his stash. Flame bull dress armour, Paralysis cat gloves, Venom Wyvern Boots, And Mithril armband (Cat Type). Each of them has no bad defence and magic resistance to fire, paralysis, toxicity, and magic.

Fran touches Satria's hand gently. "What armour do you want me to take up Shin?" She asks his preference.

Satria makes a thought gesture. For him, Fran is suited to use a set of black and white it looks good for her. He looked at the armour with a white dress and black socks. It has have chest protector who can protect her well and this sword needs a sheath too.

"You should take the set of white and black. I bet you look beautiful and adorable when use that not saying it's suitable for you who require mobility to fight. What do you think stupid sword?" Satria told his preference and asked Fran's partner's opinion too.

The sword nodded and agreed with him because the armour had good stats and definitely would protect her well. "Are you sure we can have this? The armour looks expensive and rare for a newbie like us." The sword asks to blacksmith.

"Of course! It's rare to see an intelligent weapon like you. I believe your wielder will become fa amous adventure in future and this is my job to support her how about you sir?" The blacksmith asks what Satria need from him.

"I want to have custom-made armour designed by myself, Are you okay with this?" Satria tell what he wants to make other curious, What kind of armour does this man plan to create here? If it's coming from him it's not ordinary armor.

"Custom made huh? Interesting... Do you have the blueprint now?" This is the first time someone has requested this from him, He wants to know what kind of item this lad will illustrate to him.

"I will deliver it to you soon when I'm done with it. This not take long don't worry."

Blacksmith smirked. "I hope you can surprise me, lad, No one ever requests this from me."

They are finally done doing their shopping.

Fran spent 300,000 gold for her armour and sword sheath, while Naruto spent 200,000 gold for the kunai and shuriken he ordered from to blacksmith.

Fran tests the dress armour she buys in the shop.

Satria and Naruto once again take pictures of her like an idiot.

"Wow!!! So cute, You look amazing Fran-chan." Naruto said.

'True, Not only look strong but cute too.' The sword feels the same too.

"That's it!!! Can you make another pose Fran?" Satria is very enthusiastic when taking pictures of her.

'You Lolicon.' Fatalis insulted him again.

'I'm not lolicon you idiot.'

'Yes, Keep telling yourself that.'

"Oh yeah... How do you know I'm was intelligence weapon?" The sword asks the blacksmith.

The blacksmith points at his eyes. "My eyes have an ability called God-Sight. You cannot hide your status from me no matter what I will tell you until I meet you both." He looks at two enigmas in front of him, For some reason, he is incapable of reading their status and their level is only one. What is practically impossible when remembering the blonde doing at Adventure Guild?

"That so?" Naruto suspects because they are from another world the system is unable to read their true potential.

"What can I say? I am the most amazing man all around here." Satria proclaimed with a smug face.

"The most idiot is the right sentence for you." The sword corrects his claim.

Fran chuckled and held Satria's arms again. "You are so cute Shin, I like you."

'... Why do you girls always tell me that? What part of me is cute?' He already has enough to be called cute by his wives and now Fran says the same thing too.

"Yep, What she said is true puppy~ Believe it." Fatalis approving it too.

"Pak you."

After they had bought everything they needed in the blacksmith shop, The group members proceeded to buy casual clothes for Fran in shop clothes.

"Welcome." Blue-haired clerk greets them.

"You sure will spend your money on me?" She doesn't want her saviour to spoil her like this, It should be her to him.

"Like I said before it's my responsibility to make you happy Fran and feel free to buy anything you want." Satria gave her warm smile making all the women in the shop enchanted by him.

"Hello~ Anything we can help you, gentleman? And if you don't mind..." The cleck whispered to Satria. 'Can we know each other after my shift is done, love?' She said with a seduced tone.

Satria groaning. 'This again? I should use a hood like this blonde next time.' He looks at Naruto who already covers his face like a ninja and this stupid sword looks nervous for some reason when enters the shop. I bet this guy doesn't have a girlfriend in his past life.

"You speak like you have a girlfriend in your past life, Do you?" Fatalis ask him.

"It's because no one is my type and I am too busy to have one." It does not lie his life is busy. He needs to travel to many countries because his job makes him not have time to search for a girlfriend. When I'm free because my parent force me to continue college somehow a damned truck crashed into me. Fuck you Truck-kun.

Fran walks in front of Satria while smiling at the clerk who seduces him. "He is with me and please show me the underwear suited to my armour."

The clerk was not happy to be bothered by her and back to her business smile. "Sure~ Please follow me, young lady."

Fran followed the clerk and tried multiple stuff the clerk recommended for her.

Not only underwear, She tried all kinds of cute clothes to draw Satria's attention.

"You are so cute Fran, How about after this you become my adopted daughter?" When Naruto looks at her it reminds him of his wife who is Nekomata only her personality is different.

Fran then comes to Satria. "So... What do you think about me, Shin?" She asks him shyly.

'She's too adorable, Hold... I can't hug her. She is a person, not a cat. It's not wise to hug a lady without her permission.' Satria takes a deep breath and pats her head. "You are cute and beautiful Fran, Never doubt it." He praised her cuteness.

Fran is happy at his comment and decides to buy the clothes.

'Without a doubt you are Lolicon, It's maybe some effect because you spend your time playing with Kazuma.' Fatalis guess the reason why her bearer is weird.

'Shut up you Neet Dragon!'

Kazuma POV

Giant Frog jumped to Kazuma ready to devour him.

"Eat this you stupid FROG!!! My secret weapon!" Kazuma picks up trash from his small bag and wants to turn it into a tree but he unexpectedly sneezing make his power cancel. "Oh... shit."

For the first time in his life, Kazuma experienced how awful the frog was inside.

"Kazuma!!!" The three members of him cried out and tried to help him.

Naruto POV

"They are so much however this not gonna stop me from eliminating some of them." Naruto created Lava-Style Rasenshuriken and threw it at the army of monsters burning a quarter of them, Not long he heard the roar of its black dragon the divine dragon, One of the S-Class monsters released a black cannon buster from his mouth slain Naruto's clone.

Back to the group member.

Satria, Naruto, and Fran bought all the necessities like potions and ingredients for cooking.

The potion is very expensive here so I tell Fran to buy it from Dimension Chat Shop. In there potion or scroll of healing costs 50-500© only. As a good person Satria and Naruto give her 1000© to buy the potion in order to keep her money intact.

Now they rent the room.

One for each member, Satria refuse to be staying with Blonde.

He likes to have his privacy and another reason.

"I want to sleep together with Shin," Fran said to the group member.

"No!!! I not gonna let you sleep together with this beast." The sword did not let her sleep with him.

"... You are a girl Fran and it's forbidden for a man and woman who are not in a relationship to be in one room." Satria refused her and Fran put on a sad expression. "Fine... I will attend you until you are asleep. How about that?"

Fran's face rose when heard it. "Yeah! Take care of me, Shin." She ran to her room leaving Satria and Naruto alone.

"Don't do anything weird to her, Did you hear me?" Naruto warns him.

"Who do you think I'm? Not gonna do something like that dude." Satria replied to him.

"... My clone is destroyed. They are coming soon maybe tomorrow." Naruto brings the news to him and creates a clone. "Report to the guild master." The clone nodded and disappeared into the wind. "This city is finished if we are not here and why do you not allow me to destroy them right now?"

"Be patient Naruto. I want to create a name in this world unlike you who love to move in shadow. Our name will become famous when we defeat this army of monsters in front of these fools with it we can steal the favour of people from this world and allow us to earn the connection of top dogs too. I after all want to make sure the adventure of my kitten proceeding excellently." Satria tells his reason.

"You want fame huh? How about the fate of people in here?"

"With us two working together, there is nothing to be worried about and if there is a casualty, My deepest apologies. Like you know every plan has its flaws and it such unfortunate for whoever is that." Satria said without remorse.

Naruto sends Satria to his domain and tries to punch him but his punch is blocked by him.

"Do you realize your plan put everyone in danger?!" Naruto glared at him.

"Hahaha... The better question is whether I care?" Satria smirked at him.

This is the beginning of the clash of darkness and light.

To be continued.

Side Story: Did I deserve this?

Naruto sits on the balcony of his house under the moon while checking the Dimensional Chat.

"Hey Naruto, How about you test the gacha now?" Kurama suggested to him.

"Sure, Why not?" Naruto agrees with his friend's suggestion.

He rolls the gacha.

[Congrats, You get 10.000©]

"Nice, With this I don't need fear my coins get wasted."

[Congrats, You get 100.000.000 USD]

[Description: Go buy something with this money, PIN: 123456]

Then black card shows up from nowhere beside him. "Is this real? Will this not make inflation to the country?" Naruto wondering.

[Congrats, You Unlocked Nen]

"Is this the same as a 'Ki'? Curious."

[Congrats, You get Angel Breath]

"Not bad."

[Congrats, Domain Expansion]

"Hee... This is a really interesting technique."

"Keh... This technique reminds me of Hashirama." Kurama says remembers getting defeated by it when Madara controlled him.

"Not sleep yet?" The blonde woman with a kimono sits beside him.

Naruto smiled at her. "No... Not yet. So... Are you enjoying your stay here, your majesty?"

Arthuria frowned then elbowed his stomach. "Don't call me your majesty, It makes me feel weird."

"Haha... I am sorry Arthuria-chan. Life is unpredictable, is it? For me to meet a wonderful person like you in my life." Naruto said to her.

Arthuria blushed when listened to his compliment on her. "Are you perhaps seducing me?"

"What? No... I just spoke to the truth Arthuria-chan." Naruto tried to fix the misunderstanding.

Arthuria giggled when she saw his panicked face. "Relax... You know? I feel the same about you too." Naruto blushed too when learned she felt the same as him. "When I saw your family I was envious. In the past, I never cared about something like that always selfishly did as I wanted without caring about other feelings. Remember Morgan?" Naruto nodded, He indeed wanted to know what was happening between them. "She is my blood sister instead of loving or protecting we are always trying to harm each other. Do you think someone as horrible as me deserves to have a family Naruto?"

Naruto without answering her question immediately comforted her with a warm hug.

"If you know once I have someone I consider as brother. Like you, we always fight against each other and the last time I met him he protected me from the creature called Bijuu who almost killed me. I believe everyone has a second chance and perhaps in future you can reconcile with your sister. Regarding your question before you deserve it Arthuria-chan. From the start, you can treat my family as yours. How about it?" Naruto said.

Arthuria was touched by his words, He was so warm never she experienced something like this and slowly she hugged back Naruto. "Thank you for everything you did for me Naruto, Now I know why you called as God of Hope." She suddenly kissed him.

"Arthuria... You..."

"Don't... Even I don't know why I do this to you. Do you... hate me?"

"No! It was impossible for me to..."

"Ehem! Sorry to disturb you both but the children need their daddy and let's talk before you and him become more intimate." Lara Croft smiled at her idol.
