The day after I modified the shadow puppet, I began training Tamegoro. At first, Tamegoro seemed to have difficulty walking properly, but after a while of training, he was able to walk.

　Then he started teaching karate moves. When he was in the bear kata, he could not teach karate because his skeletal structure was different. But now that I am in the warbear form, I can teach karate.

　However, it is only basic footwork and body manipulation. Tamegoro's weapon of choice is a blade that shoots out from between the fingers of his hand, which is different from karate. He calls the blade "Metal Crow.

　The metal claw generator embedded in the back of Tamegoro's hand contains high metal liquid, white magic stone, and a magic base. The white magic stone was endowed with the properties of "Robustness," "Penetration," and "Stiffness," and when the D-particles taken in were released, they could be endowed with these three properties.

　The magical base of the metal claw generator forms the metal claw, mixing the D particles released from the white magic stone with the high metal liquid.

　Then, when the spent metalclaw is stored, the white magic stone absorbs only the D-particles from the metalclaw and returns it to the original high metal liquid.

　The metal claw generator is made by utilizing the property of high metal liquid to harden when mixed with D-particles and the ability of white devil stones to absorb and release D-particles and impart characteristics.

　The development of this device required about three months of time and a large development cost. However, this technology has a wide range of applications and may contribute to people's development.

　Tamegoro clenches his fist and pours magic power into the metal claw generator on the back of his hand, and the metal claw pops out with a jerk.

　Its sharpness was such that it could easily cut through steel. Tamegoro honed his fighting skills with the metal claw while engaging in a kind of mock battle with me.

Even if we develop a new shadow puppet, it will take a long time before it's actually ready to fight."

I don't have a choice," he said. But it's easier than training top adventurers."

　It takes years to train a first-rate adventurer, but it only takes a few months to bring a combat shadow puppet up to strength.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

It's time to give them some real-world experience."

I guess so." I'll take you to the Narukami dungeon."

　I headed to the Narukami dungeon to train Tamegoro. I entered the dungeon and moved from the transfer room on the first level to the tenth level, and from there went to the tenth level.

　The ten-story meadow was full of running slugs and alligator flies, but there was a forest in the corner of the area, and we knew that an ogre had taken up residence there.

　This is what they found when I was taking a break from exploring the dungeon. This ogre is a black ogre with black horns, but adventurers call it an ogre.

　He decided to train Tamegoro against that ogre. We loaded Elmore and Tamegoro in a hover vehicle and headed for the ogre forest.

　Arriving at that forest, they put away their hover-beakles and headed into the forest. As soon as we entered the forest with Tamegoro in the lead, we encountered an ogre.

　It was a three-meter tall ogre with black horns on its head. His weapon of choice was an iron club. Tamegoro was equipped with a vermilion steel circular shield and a vermilion steel chainmaille, both of which had been given the property of "shock absorption.

　Since Tamegoro is not yet proficient with the magnihammer, his main weapon is the metal claw. However, he is now able to throw the magnihammer by pouring magic power into it, so it can be used as a flying tool.

　The ogre and Tamegoro started running at the same time. The ogre raises his iron club and swings it down at Tamegoro. The attack was caught by the circular shield of his left hand, which was infused with magic power. ＜The "Shock Absorption" property seems to have taken effect.

　Tamegoro instantly produces a metal claw in his right hand, and the blade glints in the light. With the metal claw, he sliced the ogre's leg. The ogre, cut down to the bone, collapses, and Tamegoro thrusts the metal claw out from behind its back, aiming at its heart.

　The attack killed the auger.

Heh, almost a blink of an eye, huh? That's great, even though I'm in the middle of training. Next time I'm going to use the Magnihammer."

Gawd."

　Tamegoro replied in bearish. Hearing this, I wondered if I should teach him Japanese, but decided to put it off.

　The next time Tamegoro encountered the ogre, he tightened his grip on the Magnihammer. As the ogre began to run, Tamegoro poured magic power into the magnihammer and threw it.

　The spinning magnihammer, emitting an orange light, slammed into the auger's face with a dull thud. The impact caused the auger's face to cave in.

　The magnihammer spins back and Tamegoro catches it with his right hand. Meanwhile, the auger with its face caved in takes a step or two before collapsing and disappearing.

"So, an ogre can be killed in a blink of an eye. Let's try the Minotaur next time."

That might be a good idea."

　We headed for the Minotaur Fortress on the ninth level. The Minotaur Fortress is where we defeated the Minotaur General and Minotaur Lord in a raid battle.

　Once inside the fortress, we will be surrounded by many minotaurs, so we will target the minotaurs guarding the perimeter of the fortress.

　Encountering the minotaur, Tamegoro approaches with his circular shield at the ready. The minotaur approached Tamegoro, clutching its halberd, and reared to the side.

　Tamegoro catches it with his round shield, then produces a metal claw and thrusts it into the minotaur's belly. The metal claw that hits the armor penetrates easily and makes a hole in the minotaur's belly.

　The minotaur howled and leapt back. The minotaur, screaming in rage, swung its halberd. Tamegoro carefully caught the attack with his circular shield, saw an opening, jumped into the pocket, and stabbed the metal claw in the chest.

　The minotaur spits out blood and falls to its knees. At that moment, with a high-speed step using the power of his shadow puppet, he approached the minotaur and cut off its head.

The Minotaur is supposed to be stronger than the Blue Ogre, so Tamegoro must be more than a C-class."

If he can master the magnihammer, he will surely be able to compete with the B class and above. Besides, it will be great when the magic circuit core for Tamegoro is completed.
