An ordinary profession creates the world's strongest

However, since we have to fight with weapons, wouldn’t it be enough to use the artifact weapons made by Oscar?

This idea had actually come to him a long time ago. However, in terms of speed, compared to taking the weapons that matched his idea from the treasure house and bringing them to the designated space, the combat methods he had been accustomed to for many years were much faster, so Bandu had never used Oscar's weapons.

However, now that the decisive battle was imminent, he planned to familiarize himself with Oscar's weapons. But...

"That's right, Ban is also very particular about weapons."

"Even weapons made from improvised ice are meticulously crafted and decorated."

"He criticized the weapons you made harshly, and in the end, he dismissed you with just one sentence: 'They're not beautiful enough.'"

"And he even asked for something like 'a strange feeling beyond the opponent's expectations'. That's simply asking too much..."

"Oh, even so, what you did is really out of line..."

Simply put, for the sake of his pride as a craftsman, Oscar had to do whatever it took to gain Bandu's approval.

"Okay, let's show him this!"

Everything was ready for the announcement. "Get ready, you stinky scarf man!" Oscar yelled, running towards Bandu, who was strengthening his demon in the distance.

Miredi and the others looked at each other, sighed, and followed.

"Ban, a new weapon has arrived! I'm sure to convince you. Prepare to praise me!"

"Hmph, you're here, you tasteless, stinky glasses guy. Okay, let me see!"

(These two really are close friends...) Miredy and the others thought so in their hearts, waiting to see Oscar's announcement.

"First of all, this!"

What he took out was a fat, round fish.

"...Is the problem with my eyes? Or your head?"

"How about it, isn't it bizarre? Look at this beautiful silhouette, so unique to nature. This weapon is called the 'Super Vibrating Fish-Shaped Stick with Automatic Swimming Function,' and it will unleash its true power when combined with Mei!"

"Don't involve me, your elder sister!?"

Meir protested. Meanwhile, the giant fish-shaped club continued to vibrate with life. So Bandu flash-frozen it and shipped it deep into the forest.

"Hmm, no, isn't it... Then, let's take a look at this!"

Oscar then majestically took out a warhammer-shaped magic wand. The shape was very pretty, with wings, ribbons, colorful stars and hearts on the top and bottom.

"Every time you strike it, it sprays out star and heart-shaped special effects, dazzling the enemy. Honestly, I was planning to put it on Rouse's war hammer..."

Hearing this, Ross immediately muttered "Stop it!" and began to check his war hammer in panic.

"It's strange that a serious man like you would fight with a warhammer that looks like a little girl's toy—"

"It's not just strange, it's bizarre! You idiot! Do you want me to be thought of as someone with a mental problem?!"

Thus, this pretty war hammer was completely smashed to pieces by the hammer made of ice.

Oscar then continued to showcase various new weapons, including a scrubbing brush with a sword hidden in the handle, a spinning staff with added magical multi-motor capabilities, and a chained metal book with a lock that was designed as a connecting staff for unknown reasons. Each new weapon showed just how far Oscar had come off the rails.

Miredi and others also showed a disapproving attitude.

"You're such a useless, useless guy with glasses."

Bandu insulted Oscar mercilessly, looking at him as if he were a bug. This reaction made the symbol "!?" appear above Oscar's head.

"Why do you, a stupid guy with glasses, have absolutely no sense of taste? You're not just pitiful, you're even pathetic."

Bandu crossed his arms, frowning, and nagging Oscar about his lack of sensitivity, being a third-rate craftsman, having poor naming taste, and being useless except for its functionality...

"Ben, come on! You're taking it too far!"

Oscar lowered his head and trembled violently, forcing Meredith to step in to smooth things over.

At this moment, Oscar's treasure house suddenly glowed, and a big sword emerged from the air where there was nothing, and stuck heavily into the ground.

Upon seeing the sword, Bandu's expression changed, and he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. And no wonder; the greatsword was truly exquisitely crafted. The hilt and hilt were beautifully decorated. Despite being a greatsword, it had a blade crest, and the magic circle carved into the blade formed the shape of a rising dragon.

"What? If you're willing to work hard, you can do it. Why not just take this out from the beginning—"

"Actually, I originally intended to use this magic sword myself, but if you like, you can take it. This greatsword is called—'The Dragon-Slaying Sword'."

After hearing what Oscar said, Bandu, who was about to pull the sword out of the ground, stopped and his eyebrows twitched.

Miredi and the others began to leave the scene with a look of fear on their faces.

"Oh, by the way, what does this sword do?"

Bandu asked, his lips twitching stiffly. Oscar smiled brightly and replied:

"Specially designed to counter ice attributes! This is a magic sword designed to slay those pesky ice dragons!"

A cold wind blew past. Oscar and Bandu were both smiling. After a pause—

"Go to hell, you stinky glasses guy!"

"You're the one who's going to die, you stinky scarf man!"

As usual, the two of them started fighting again. Interestingly, this fight between the two of them proved the power of this "dragon-killing sword"...

Later, when the decisive battle began, Bandu carried this greatsword filled with murderous intent from his companions on his back.

Prequel Zero 5 Special Edition The women in the Liberator camp are not serious people after all.

Only a few days remain until the decisive battle.

Almost all the fighting forces had gathered at the Liberators' headquarters, Lec Airein. Currently, Oscar, Rouse, Lutilis, and Mei were in a forging workshop located in a corner of the ship.

"Okay, that should work."

Oscar carefully examined the orb on the workbench and pushed up his glasses.

"Okay, Mei'er, please go out first."

"Why?! Just rely on me a little more! I'm so bored!"

"It's because your last sincere words were so worrying! No one asked you to come, so why did you insist on coming here!?"

"You... useless glasses. You'd better be hated by Xiao Mi and have your glasses broken by her!"

Hearing this, a vein appeared on Oscar's forehead.

"Alright, alright, Onee-sama. Wherever you go, people's reactions are always, 'I'm busy! Get out of my way!' or 'Stop meddling! Stop causing trouble!' I know you must be feeling lonely, being so ostracized. Even Tine-chan kicked you out, saying she wanted to focus on mastering the new Sacred Gear. It must be hard on you—Ahaha! Thank you, Onee-sama!"

Lutilis received a hard slap on the cheek, spinning three times in the air. The elder sister, struck in a sore spot, started to sulk.

"Mei'er, just stay in the corner of the room and don't move—"Soul Calming"."

Then, Lutilis, who had been holding her cheek and panting in a trance, suddenly lost her expression.

"What? Everyone's ostracizing me like this... I hope you all end up in trouble!" Mei uttered this curse, which was a bit too much for a joke, and walked to the corner of the room. She looked really unhappy.

So Oscar continued to make the artifact.

"Hmm... Is it really impossible to make everyone's virtual soul exactly the same?"

"No, if I practice it repeatedly and improve my proficiency, I should be able to do it..."

"However, there's not much time left until the final battle. I think we should just call it quits for now."

The two magical powers, the color of night and the color of sunlight, mixed with each other, but in the end they were unable to attach to the orb and gradually dissipated.

It seems that the experiment was not successful at once.

This was a natural outcome—Oscar and the others thought, shrugging their shoulders helplessly. At this point, should we say it was predictable? Seeing this, the useless sister Mei excitedly raised her hand and said, "Looks like it's my turn to take action!"

"No problem! Just keep trying until it sticks, right? — 'Keyong'!"

"Don't be silly. How can a simple-minded, strong-limbed theory like that be used to create a divine weapon?!"

"Hmm? Hey, Oscar! Things don't look good."

The orb changed. First it flickered violently, then it emitted a powerful flash of light.

Oscar and the others quickly covered their faces and lay prone on the ground. Suddenly, they felt a shock as if their spirits were shaken, and for a moment they were dazed...

"Everyone, are you okay?!" The first voice I heard was Mei'er's anxious voice.

“Uh, yeah, it’s okay. But, what on earth was that just now…” Lutilis said this and got up from the ground.

"Haaaaaaa, it feels like a slap deep in my heart. So new! It feels pretty good!" Ross also stood up, his face dazed and his breathing rapid. "Let me be clear, this is not my fault," Oscar quickly stood up, eager to defend himself. However, his tone was very feminine.

"Huh?" Of course, everyone was stunned. Because they all saw their own figures in their own vision. The four of them hurriedly checked their current state and quickly understood what had happened.

"I, I actually swapped bodies and minds..."

Mei muttered in astonishment. While the exact mechanism behind this was still unknown, it looked like Mei's bad habit of "doing unnecessary things" had undoubtedly caused this unnecessary situation.

After confirmation, it seems that Oscar and Mel, and Lucy Lis and Ross have switched bodies.

Oscar and the others' cold gazes stung Mei'er.

"What, what's the matter? I, your elder sister, have good intentions too! I do have good intentions──!"

Since she now looks like Oscar, her pigeon-toed stance and feminine way of speaking make people feel a little out of place.

"Stop it now! Do not use my body to do anything that blasphemous! Otherwise, I will not forgive you!"

“Wow! Onee-sama has become an androgynous girl! For me, this is ‘fine’ too!”

Ross put his hands on his cheeks, his face flushed, and his whole body twisted with excitement, which made Lutilis almost vomit.

"Ryu, stop it! Don't use my body to behave in such a horrible way. I can't stand it!"

Thus, the male members who transformed into tomboys and the female members who were very masculine made their debut.

In order to try to recover, everyone decided to first check the status of each other and the pearl.

In the end, they decided to observe for an hour. They had discovered that the Age of Gods magic itself was based on the "person inside," but it couldn't fully exert its power without the interference of the flesh, so they needed to get used to it. Also, since the "Eternal" spell lasted only an hour, the orb would lose its effectiveness after an hour, and it would likely be restored by then.

"Really... Mei'er, you really need to reflect on yourself this time."

After saying that, Oscar raised his hand to push up his glasses, but found that there were no glasses to push up because he was now using Mei'er's body.

At the same time, he looked down and noticed the presence of the magnificent pair of peaks.

"No way, I can't even... see my own feet?"

"Brother Oscar, I'm warning you, don't do anything obscene to my body."

Oscar was speechless at the mystery of the female body and its unimaginable visual violence. He only came to his senses when Mei, who resembled Oscar, reminded him. He looked up and saw his own body, eyes half-closed, glaring coldly at him.

However, Sister Mei, who had Oscar-like looks, suddenly became a little uneasy and became coy. Then she said:

"...For Mi-chan's sake, I should check it out, right?"

"Wait a minute, what do you want to do!?"

Oscar, who looked like Mel, saw that she was loosening her belt, making a clanging sound, and rushed over to stop it. It seemed that Mel was very interested in Oscar's crotch.

“Actually… I’ve never seen a man’s private parts before, haa, haa…”

"Don't even think about it, you pervert!"

Ross, who had the appearance of Lutilis, slapped his own face hard. Of course, seeing his own body slumped to the ground in a daze made him even more impatient, and he couldn't help but rush over and stomp on it a few more times. This would only create a vicious cycle.

"Ao? Are you here?" At this time, Meredith came in...

“…Huh? W-What are you doing…?”

The eldest sister was kneeling before Oscar's crotch, desperately pulling at his belt. Her Majesty the Queen was trampling on the ground with an indifferent expression. Ross, on the other hand, looked dazed for some reason.

Meredith's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but take three steps back. Her reaction was as if she had accidentally entered another world.

"M-Miledi! No, don't get me wrong!"

Oscar, who looked like Mel, quickly stood up to explain.

"Uh, eh? ...Is that Ao?" Meredith was confused, but she recognized him immediately. Perhaps it was true to her name, Meredith.

However, the older sister who loves to stir up trouble certainly couldn't miss this good opportunity.

"Hey, Meredith. It's nothing, it's just that Mel took her joke a little too far. Let's not talk about that for now—"

"Uh, huh? W-what?"

Seeing Oscar (Mel inside) approaching unscrupulously, Meredith was very panicked and at a loss. Moreover, Oscar in front of her actually hugged her waist.

"Ah, Ahhh, Ahoh!?!?" Meredy was completely panicked.

"You're just as adorable today, my dear Meredith."
