It soon reached December .

There haven’t been any troublesome visitors since then . It also started snowing . I sometimes go out gathering on days where it doesn’t snow, but most of the time I just stay indoors . At home, I usually just spend time making potions or iron . I had a large supply of iron sand since I had collected it at the river before winter started . If I could turn it into wrought iron then it would make a great weapon material, but it would take quite a bit of time to do . But I didn’t need to rush to finish it during winter so I could take my time . I still haven’t made a longsword yet . But I did make many knives . And a kitchen knife . It’s necessary for cooking!

After accumulating enough wrought iron, I tried to make a katana again but I fainted . I planned to make the blade length around that of a short sword… . . but neither my skill level or MP were high enough . The requirements were likely high since an advance level of blacksmithing was needed .

Since I’ve been staying indoors, as expected, well……the amount of time spent on the daily routine has increased . And, well, that’s why I think I really will reach LV6 soon……

It’s also why I’ve been making more potions too . It’s not like it matters anyways! I’m not bothering anyone!

That aside, I go to sleep once the moon appears . The symptoms from this body were quite severe……even with the painkillers I still didn’t want to move about……

Although it was winter Norn and Bell still lived outside . They sometimes slept inside the house, but most of the time they basically lived outside . Both of them were strong, but I still couldn’t help but worry a bit .

January .

The concept of celebrating the New Year also exists in this world .

In larger towns, it seems there were even places where festivals would be held . It wasn’t like that in the town with the orphanage I was in, but the church would give out food . I’ve also heard that some rural villages even celebrate by themselves .

……I wonder if Coco’s village also celebrates New Years? Not that I would go regardless .

About two weeks into January, it started snowing heavily . The house became completely buried . In order to prevent the house from being crushed, I had to use Storage and place the surrounding snow into it instead of shoveling it .

Normally, if you were trapped in a snowstorm like this you would probably be worried .

But it doesn’t matter to me! Since I can finally make swords now!

After a few days, I finally managed to finish making a sword . My skill level also increased . Creation Magic had become LV4 . It was long… . . but this length would only be considered a dagger . Since the length of the blade was only about 40cm, it would still be considered quite a bit shorter than the average short sword . But since I was still a child, this length made it easier to use . I didn’t have enough arm strength . I had used wrought iron, then changed the carbon compound to adjust the strength and durability, a high quality item . I used Appraisal to check the description .
