Disciple of Immortal

Eighth episode: unpleasant visitors

"I see... the pencil already exists."

"Yes, it's quite precious that you don't get much graphite, which is just a core material, so you don't have the impression that it's in circulation as Kanata-san said."It's expensive, and I don't even bother to have it. "

Mel twists his head at my words.

"Look, you'll need a lot of stuck ore to make it."I can't use it at the time of cracking. "

"I see... if you can alchemize the material from another alloy or combine the shards into a stuck alloy, there is a possibility that you can produce it cheaply."By the way, is there anything out there that can erase the pencil? "

"Hmm... I've hardly ever used a pencil."Oh, I've heard of bread extinguishing, haven't I? "

I see, even if you put out the eraser, you don't seem to be very grateful.

I crossed out one of the candidates on the paper.

Some of the candidates had motors and phonographs, but both had already been eliminated because they were not confident that they could be built from scratch.

While Mel and I were talking, Philia, who couldn't follow her, was prone to a good night's sleep.

”Uuu... I'm sorry, Pomera has so many things I can't hear...”

Pomera is desperately trying to understand, but a question mark appears on her face.

Hmm, I see.

Rosmond occasionally strikes an unpleasant summoner on the top of the Buddha, but he probably doesn't understand the story.

You probably don't think you can throw it irresponsibly from the standpoint of involving me.

What I can't honestly say is her high pride.

However, Pomera and the others weren't unhappy about this.

I need a wide range of knowledge and flexibility to listen to the cultures of other worlds that I speak of and to connect with those that are close to this world's culture.

Rosemond said that Mel was a genius as a magician, but it could be true.

If I were in the opposite position, I'd have little idea what I'm talking about.

Of the four, Mel was the only one who knew the pencil in the world of Low Chloe in the first place.

It's the same with development, but if Mel learns a little more alchemy, there's likely to be more that she can do all at once.

When I was talking to Mel, I noticed that, from my point of view, there are often not enough brush-ups in Low Chlore to make effective use of existing technology than the first idea.

What I had in Japan has been replaced with a more convenient shape over many decades and centuries, so it's a natural story.

For example, even with pencils, perhaps Japan would never have mimicked them from existing graphite.

As long as I know the direction of the brush-up answer, the technology itself is a black box for me, and to some extent, alchemy seems to be a good substitute.

"No... but I don't think I'll be able to learn alchemy and increase my skills in time."it's not something you can wear all morning and all evening.... "

“Shall I teach you a little? I also experimented a little, and if I find something that can significantly lower the cost of one alchemy, I can teach it somehow."

Besides, even in the worst case scenario, I don't want to imitate the use of talented people who can do both alchemy and magic work in dangerous jobs.

"Thank you, Kanata-san...!"

"Kanata-san, please stop..."

"If I manage to survive, I'll build Kanata-san's big pure magic silver (Mithril) statue in the center of the Polo Rock...!"

“Please don't do this.”

What are you going to do in this expensive city?

At that moment, Pomera grabbed Mel's shoulder with a serious expression.

"... Mel, when you teach Kanata magic, be prepared to give up half your life."It will be a medicine pickle. "

"What happened, Mr. Pomera?"Well, of course, I'll take your time and be kind enough to teach you!I'm going to risk my life! "

Mel clenched his fist and asserted.

Mel, if Mel says that, Pomera won't stop anymore.

"Besides, if we stay like this, I won't have half of my life, but all of my life!"It's a rumor in the Dark Zone that there is an underground laboratory where people are locked up in debt and forced to work until they die!What a filthy place to be, and a thin, fading corpse tossed around!I definitely don't want that...!I want to work normally, get married normally, and die normally! "

Mel holds Pomera in tears.

"Hey, hey, Mel, calm down, come on."

"But inappropriately, I set up a fashionable store in the city and wanted to be held by a charismatic genius magician!"Was that such a bad thing? "

Pomera was desperately rubbing Mel's back.

"But even now, I'm still dreaming that I can't give up even though I've been fooled and pushed here and there...!"

My feelings are fierce... I'm a busy person.

In Mel's case, it seems that the panic caused by the anxiety she was being pushed into.

"... anyway, let's focus on felt pens, cans and can openers.In this area, I may be able to combine my memories with Mel's skills. ”

Because of the complexity of the mechanism and my lack of knowledge, I came to the idea that the sign and ballpoint pens were not realistic.

It seems that there are already similar types of play such as playing cards and chess.

I also suggested a hand spinner, but Rosmond rejected it.

Mel told me it might be an ant, but I honestly think it might be tough.

Perhaps to make the hand spinner fashionable, you need the luck of the hour and the power of Daiyuan.

It is definitely not something that should be made now.

There's nothing to put in the cans, but if we can get the technology established in this world, other shops might be interested.

If you want, you can pack what you bought outside and make preserved food.

... but it's going to take some time to make a practical appeal.

“No, let's go with a ballpoint pen and a bicycle!I'll give it a try! "

"... I don't know, isn't it difficult?"

"Please... let me do it!"We need impact to beat that Gelocus con man's Garbage Wonz!Not if it's actually convenient to use, but first of all, a hook that can attract attention! "

I know that, but it sounds like a tough story.

"But thanks to Kanata-san and the others, I can see hope somehow!"You can definitely win this!I'm full of inspiration!Your brain is so stupid right now!We're invincible now!Let's become millionaires together and take control of Polo Rock! ”

"I don't have that kind of ambition..."

At that time, I heard a bell from the doorway.

The door is equipped with a bell, which makes a sound when opening and closing.

"Oh, it's a customer!" Wait a minute, I'll see how it goes! "

Mel stood up happily and ran towards the store in a hurry.

After that, I heard the sound of closing the door vigorously.

Obviously, it's too powerful.

"Isn't there something disturbing?I'll see what happens to me. "

With Rosemond, I decided to take a seat and see how things went.

"It's been a long time, Mel."How's the store doing? "

He was a thin man with poor eyesight.

They are well dressed and dressed in beautiful gowns.

Behind him stood a thick man with a thick mustache.

A sword was pointed at his waist.

Apparently, it was a bodyguard.

"Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, wo, w

Mel had a twisted expression on her face, and she was bowing her head again and again.

Looks like he's some kind of gerrocus scammer's garbage wontons.

But Mel's tone didn't leave him with the courage he used to have.
