A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 34: What do you use the ring for? Adjustment and testing of the ring.
The clerk seems happy.
Well, we're out of bad stock, and I can even let you modify it.
Takeo thought it would never be so much fun.
"By the way, yesterday, I got glasses, but there's a ring in the cardboard box with me... what is that?
"Huh? Um... I gave the instructions to Miss Alice..."
Takeo and the clerk turn to Alice.
"... I forgot to give it to you.
Alice lay her face down looking bad.
"Well. You've come to ask because it's about me even if you give me instructions, so it's not about being sick.
and Takeo tells Alice.
"Dear Takeo. Excuse me.
That makes it easier for you to say that.
and Alice thanks.
"So. What is this?
Takeo asks the manager.
"This is the mediation that activates the same magic as yesterday's stick.
"Ho.
"Just finger this and cast the magic.
"I see.
... by the way, magic name - number of consecutive times - general goal - activated if you think it is activated. Can you... or something?
"That's unchanging.... you can.
In the meantime, adjust it so that it can be activated in the process just mentioned.
and receive the ring and make it out of something like a sculpture knife on the spot.
"By the way, can you connect two magic with a ring and activate three at the same time?
"You can.
However, you can't do anything strong with a ring.
Because it affects the amount of magic that person has.
If you want to activate strong magic, you have to put a big gem on something like a rod.
"As the small gun said earlier, does the gem have anything to do with magic?
"Most gems can accumulate certain magic.
So the bigger the gems, the more powerful they can accumulate.
Sometimes you multiply gems with each other to use powerful magic.
But in the end, you can accumulate faster and become more powerful by planting gems from the same pedigree as you are good at, so no one will multiply them by much.
"I see."
"Did you come up with something?
Alice asks questions.
"No. Would it be hot water if we activated fire and water at the same time?
I just thought so.
Takeo answers with a laugh.
"Does that make any sense?
and Alice said, "Why do you do magic to that?" He asks.
"... Miss Alice. Close your eyes and think of it.
There's nobody there but ourselves. We're on a small high hill.
You can see the whole city you live in, and the sight of great harmony with the mountains and plains is just stunning. There's just some laid-back air around us.
And there it is filled with warm water "
Ha and Alice open their eyes and look at Takeo.
"Dear Takeo!
"What is it?
"I'll pay for it, so make rings that can use multiple simultaneous magic!!
Takeo and the clerk laughed bitterly.
After a while, the clerk brought a collar stamp quote and two remaining glasses and rings.
"These are the glasses that were ordered.
And then. It's a quote for your chapter and your class chapter.
"Thank you.
The collar order comes from the Elvis family.
"Okay. I'll have samples ready by tomorrow.
And then. This will be the ring.
It can be any finger.
and Takeo made it his left index finger and middle finger.
"Okay. Shall we make a final adjustment...
Concentrate on your left hand and think of it as Lux · 1 · Palm and think of it as activated.
Takeo thinks like he was told and thinks it's activated.
and the flat palm of your left hand lights up.
"Ooh.
Takeo admires.
The clerk nods and brings an empty bucket.
"Okay. Let's do some concurrent magic next time.
In Aqua · 1 · Fire · 1 · Palm.
Put your left hand over the bucket, think like you said, and I think it's activated.
and hot water comes out of my hands.
"Ooh.
Takeo speaks up.
I gave out 2 mugs and it stopped.
"This one doesn't seem to have a problem either.
The clerk nods as he says so.
"Yeah. I'm not uncomfortable or chill.
says Takeo.
"Is there anything else I can get into?
"Right... if you have a small knife or a sword.
Isn't it user-friendly and easy to carry?
The clerk comes up with three types.
One is a double-edged sword. Blade crossing 20cm.
One is a single-edged survival knife-like knife. Blade crossing 20cm.
One is a foldable single-blade knife. Blade crossing 15cm.
... I don't know... Takeo worries.
"Miss Alice. Which would be better?
"What do you think, Master Takeo?
"No... I have no idea.
"Right... they're all the same.
"... then. Take this.
Takeo gets a single-edged survival knife.
"Do you have a case of this?
"I'll put it on you.
"How much is it?
"It's three silver coins with a modified ring and a set of knives.
Takeo pays the clerk.
"This is it for today... Ah. Can you deliver one of those little guns and 50 bullets to Elvis Mansion?
"Okay.
"Bye. Around here today.
Takeo and Alice took their seats and left the store.
