After taking out materials for a string Lyly growled and then stared at me.
"Hey, Yuncchi. If I'm not wrong you have Metallic Thread and Bamboo Fibre, don't you."
"Yep, I have some of the ones I made with 【Synthesis】 and materials for synthesis."
Certainly, I did have the Metallic Thread I made using 【Synthesis】 with Emily-san and the Bamboo Fibre I made out of Magical Bamboo.
"Could you pass some of it to me? I want to try to see whether to use the same string or one of those."
"Then I'll give you what I have now."
With that said, I took out the copper, iron and silver Metallic Thread, as well as Bamboo Fibre and gave them up.
Lyly aligned a few dozen of them, raised up to make sure they aren't spreading out and then made a string.
And then, with a serious expression he put the string on the bow for me to try and passed it to me.
"Yuncchi, this."
"Y-yeah."
I pulled the string once. With a string made out of Copper Metallic Thread on, I felt like the previous one was better.
As neither I nor Lyly were satisfied with it, we tried once again after replacing the string.
We have repeated that several times and once we went through the strings made out of expensive Metallic Thread, for the last one I pulled the string made out of Bamboo Fibre.
"?!! This!"
"Yup, this is it. Sound and everything is different."
The Silver Metallic Thread wasn't bad either. But, compared to the powerful sound and tension of the Bamboo Fibre, it was several levels below.
"I'll re-tension it immediately, carefully this time."
After saying that, Lyly re-tensioned the Bamboo Fibre string on the Black Maiden's Longbow.
"So the difference is that big. Bamboo Fibre is a hassle to make, but it isn't an expensive material. I guess it has great compatibility with bows."
"You're right. Metallic Thread is too strong so it'll make the bow's durability decrease faster instead, so it's not suitable for a Longbow or a Strongbow. For those it might be best to use something like a fibre made of a large mob's tendon."
After saying so, Lyly adjusted the string to my level and removed it again.
"I'll adjust the main part of the bow carefully later. Also, I don't know what did you lose against, but don't be too reckless."
"Yeah, I got it. I'll try leveling a bit, forming a party and then challenging it."
I paid Lyly for replacing the string and left the store.
