Tensei Kenja – 75
They Knew About Slime Storage
“Wh-why are you able to cut trees like that…? And so quickly…”
“I don’t know. Ask this guy.”
I said as I pointed to the axe.
The axe that was made through ‘Axe Summon’ could be used very roughly, and yet the blade did not have a single chip in it.
If it were a normal axe, it would have probably broken if you used the kind of force that was required to chop down a tree with a single hit.
“No, I don’t think you can blame the axe for this one…”
“Look, I don’t understand how it works. But I can cut down trees. Is that not enough?”
“…True. If you can cut down trees, the method is not important. Besides, I’ve never seen someone cut down trees so quickly. It would take at least 5 minutes to cut down a tree of this width.”
Apparently, he was willing to accept my way of doing things.
So, now I just had to turn this into firewood.
“Alright, I’m going to the next part now. Let me know if I’m doing anything wrong.”
I said as I chopped off the branches and turned the tree into a log.
Mister Udoka watched this with a look of shock.
“Your methods are incomprehensible…and too quick. Is it really possible to make a log at this speed?”
“I don’t know. It just happens when I swing the axe randomly. …So… Now I just need to split the log into a random length and then cut them vertically?”
“…Yes. But try to keep them close to 40 cm. The prices will go down at the guild if they are too long or too short.”
“Got it.”
I said as I swung the axe down and cut the log into perfect pieces.
It felt easier doing this compared to cutting the tree down. Perhaps it was because of gravity.
Well, either way. It was just one swing.
“I-I really can’t believe this. How are you doing this…?”
Udoka was just repeating himself now.
“So now we have smaller logs of the same length. What now? How thick do I need to cut them?”
“Uh…yes. At this size, you should split them into 4 pieces. Thicker logs would be split into 8.”
“Got it.”
I said as I thoughtlessly swung the axe.
Who would have expected a skill like ‘Ultra Combat Art’ to be used for this? I wasn’t even fighting.
I thought about this as I swung the axe. It did not take long for the entire tree to turn into firewood.
I had the slimes dry it and I was finished.
“…Alright. I’m done. Can I take this to the guild now?”
“Yeah. It’s perfect. I’m still confused as to how…but as long as you can make perfect firewood at an incredible speed, I won’t complain. I guarantee that no one at the guild will complain about this.”
