Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)

Since the prospect of obtaining the raw stone (rarely) stood, we moved on to discussing the next issue.

"It's a way to tailor a round ball of vegetables to an accessory, but first you have to fasten the round ball to the pedestal. Otherwise, you'll drill a hole in the round ball and put the string through it. The necklace is over here."

'It's harder to drill a hole in a stone, isn't it?

"Oh, the crystals are pretty stiff. I want the villagers - or Mr. Hobb - to process it, so I want to avoid machining methods that require special tools'

"Then you need to consider it in the direction of fastening it to the pedestal."

'What do you do to fasten the stone?

'It's Ishiza that's commonly used. A pedestal the size of which matches the stone, folding the surrounding nails to hold the stone. This is probably the ring. By the way, Ishiza is mostly made of metal. "

"Made of metal… the stone seat… in this village… difficult to procure…"

'Other than Ishiza... there's a way to wrap and hold wires of metal, but is there a wire in that hand over here?

I asked because I wondered, but the wire itself seems to be there. They pass copper and true brass (chu) materials through holes drilled into round-tails, pull them out, and process them into stretched wires. Seems to pull with the power of a water wheel these days, but that heck is just like the Earth world. However, metal wires made that way are rarely used for accessories. Gold wire and silver wire are also made. Is this the world over here, or the trend in this country? They often make brooches out of carvings.

"Hmmm...... Are the buyers of accessories predominantly upper class, up to middle class at best? You hardly seem to have any accessories for ordinary people. '

"In the first place, people can't afford to buy accessories."

'Oh so the women in this village ate so much... yeah? Elgin's town material store said there was more demand for stones that weren't too expensive?

"By dropping the rank of stone, aren't they selling it at a price for midstream?

I see, is that so...

'Well, wire accessories are easy if I'm going to make them. I can buy tools and ingredients in Japan... is it difficult to get them in this world?

"Is it okay to use the ingredients of the Master's world?

That's what...

"Yes, alchemy, huh?

Ah... Alchemy material deformation?

'... Sounds like you could. Is that it?'

Alchemists would be in this country, and they wouldn't be so suspicious.

Shit, for what I make, I got a pretty good look at it. The problem is Mr Hobb......

"Wouldn't it be okay if your husband offered you wires and stuff?

"That's okay, but in the sense of widening the technology gap, I'd also like to consider other ways of creating it"

There are only a limited number of materials that can be used to make them in the village. A tree, or at best a fang - if it had a material like ivory - would be about it. Should I make it so that it is embedded in the brooch instead of the stone table?

"Your husband... the elves... how... are you here... should I?

Yeah, with that said, you sold round balls to the elves, too.... Ask Horn.

So, I contacted Horn, and he said it was tough over there. The pressure on Horn, my only liaison officer, seems to have been tremendous, and the voices heard from the communications magic props had no such thing as strength. I'm sorry.

'... so is it possible to get extra round balls in awe?

'Oh, I managed to get the original stone, so I can give you some extra. What size is that?

When I heard that, Horn was stunned, and eventually I answered...

'... I decided not to ask you about the size designation. Please have a convenient size for Spirit users'

Well, if I even took a size order, it'd be tough on the horn.

'Okay. A little ahead, but take a few different colors and sizes. So now I want to hear from you...'

When asked how the elf women processed the round balls, the most common was the necklace. They didn't drill holes, they embedded hardware with magic, or put round balls inside a thin gold thread knitted into a cage-like shape. In the case of brooches and hair decorations, glossy wood appears to have been embedded in a machined table, or a thin but sturdy cradle knitted to enclose and secure round balls. I heard the elves were clever and long enough to work with, but it seems to be more than you can imagine. Do you have a hand in commissioning?

Oh, I also got an additional order for a dragon bone knife from Horn. There were still a few bone shards left, so some additions would be possible.
