Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne?

I could think of some other names but since it was Miduchi's horse that one probably makes the most sense for those characters. The abbreviated name would probably just be "Tama".

While Feeling Rejected

Year 7446, Month 7, Day 26

Accompanied by his highness the Prince of Ronbarudo, Richard I returned to the room in the third citadel that was being used as a ground for taking body measurements but the inside of my head was busily working. The information I obtained from the King and Queen this time was considerably valuable. First off, that there's(was) a guardian on each floor on the dungeon has been confirmed it seems. Next is the fact that after defeating the guardians a number of times they eventually stop reappearing. Is it with a feel like running out of stock? And then finally, all of the guardians have some sort of {Magic.Item}.

However, this isn't definite. It would be more correct to say that at least from the 6th to 8th floors the guardians had them. It seems that the 1st to 5th floors were defeated in the era before the founding King so that information is unknown and I can't say anything about it.

After that, it seems that the so-called wazamono equipment from the first guardian you defeat..is even named. In the case that it's not a living thing, in regards to the temples naming of inorganic objects, first off you have to request an estimate on the cost from the priest or minister or whatever. After that if you accept it then you leave it with the temple for one night and the next day they'll tell you the formal cost of naming it. It seems when it's cheap it only costs several tens of thousands of Z but when it comes to expensive things they even end up charging tens of millions or several hundreds of millions as well. It seems that the closer the naming of the item gets to only in self-interest the more expensive it gets.

Incidentally, the thresher I made when I was child had the name {Thresher} from the moment it was completed and when I tested out putting in a request for an estimate on the meat mincer which was coming up as {Brass.Craft} in Identify and Status Open to be named to {Mince.Maker} they requested 700,000 Z. I didn't pay the money so it wasn't named. Even if they don't do anything just to get them to return the mincer cost a 5% handling charge of 35,000 Z. During the first stages of the estimation when I stated that I wanted it to be named to {Mince.Maker}, the priest looked at the status with a difficult face while spinning the handle and gave me an estimate of, "I don't think it will cost more than 1,000,000 Z."

Thinking it was worth testing when I tried having them do an estimate for having my handmade(though it's not mine but Arnold's I guess?) sword named to {Greed's Sword}, without even looking at the status they said, "Almost without a doubt I can say it will easily be in the hundreds of millions and depending on the case it wouldn't be strange for it to go over one or two billion." so I just ended up excusing myself with a cold sweat after just listening to the estimate I got for free.

Incidentally when it comes to living creatures there's no difference from the case when getting married and when it comes to the normal naming ceremony, they're fixed at 150,000 Z. It's a decently large amount of money so that's also a hotbed for nameless people. Occasionally wealthy people name their horses and cattle as well. I did too though. If a time ever comes when I talk about the name of my horse I'll tell you. Ah, Miduchi calls her horse Ball Dragon but she hasn't had it named. Incidentally the horses the King's ride are traditionally named based on their hereditary disposition like, "Segaifa", "Black.Kotezan", and "Ashuri". Putting aside the latter two, isn't the first one mispronounced? Furthermore, if you steal someones horse or livestock as long as it's not within one year it seems you can get it named without a problem. If it's within one year? Then it's the lightning.

The battle axe we obtained from the Mino was displayed as {Double-Edge Battle Axe} on the status. It didn't have any proper nouns in the name like the {Blade.Cusinart} that said to be made by the legendary master blacksmith Cusinart so including myself we all ended up overlooking it. Among the things that the so-called master craftsman produce it seems there's rarely items that take on the name of the artisan.

Also, there's times when the name would be attached it before anyone realizes it. For example, if there's a {Granite} rock used as a landmark in some region that's called the "pointed rock" it seems that one day it would suddenly be named {Pointed.Rock}. Really though thanks for your trouble.

"It seems you cleared the 8th floor right. Congratulations, Greed-kun."

His highness Richard who was lined up beside me made a light smile while congratulating me. Come to think of it they were saying something like I was brought up as a topic between him and the King.

"Thank you very much. However, it's because I was blessed with good luck and had the help of my allies that I was able to do it."

I'll keep my replies admirable.

"Don't be modest. It's something extraordinarily splendid. I think it's an achievement you can be proud of."

Mu, come to think of it I surpassed the achievement of his ancestor. If I say something admirable or show too much modesty then it might be taken as if the achievements of the founding King weren't anything big.

"..Certainly. We struggled a considerable amount and were obstructed by countless powerful monsters. I feel quite proud of it as well. Most likely among the adventurers currently in Baldukk it's impossible for anyone other than us."

"Umu. It's an achievement you should be proud of like that. Wouldn't Lord Greed be delighted as if it was her own as well? I guess if it's that genius witch then this younger brother is also possible."

..I was the one who raised Al, and I can..'t see her boasting like that. My sister wouldn't say something like that. Just in regards to me. In the first place she didn't raise me.

"I would be happy if that's the case. But, I still can't raise my head to my sister."

"Hahhahha..She's quite the hard worker after all..Though it seems it'll still be quite a while before she gets married."
