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

The day after I interrupted the Partridge Mansion, I visited the Bolton Parent Workshop at the address I was given, and I handed over the original painting I had drawn.

"There is. This will get me to work soon. Let me get this printed fast."

The parent who received the original painting also pulled the greeting (greeting) into the back there.

"I'm sorry. Parents are like kids when they're about to get a good job... Master Crowe, right?

"Yeah, it's Crowe. I let you imitate the illustration painter."

"I can't believe it's a imitation... the original painting looked amazing, so I let this one be printed in the mood. I tore down all the prints that I couldn't do at all..."

Whoa! I'm not listening!

"Hey! Did you do that?

"Yes. Both Mr. Holbeck and Mr. Partridge seemed natural, right?

Wow......

"Then there was a disciple who took home what he tore away... and he was stuck asking me to give him that fragment. I was scared and brought back here, eating eyeballs from my parents."

"Wow..."

"Since then, garbage management has become more stringent."

Your apprentice is laughing, but as far as I'm concerned, he's not nearly laughing. I can't believe this happened...

"Oh, I'm late for my offer. I'm called Michelle. I do artisans under my parents."

Michelangelo, is that you?

"Nice to meet you."

"I see the corner, so why don't you take a tour of the workshop? There's something I'd like to see."

Oh, that's an invitation I didn't even wish for. All I can say is unwanted luck to be able to see medieval printing workshops live.

"Happy if I'm not disturbing you"

Michelle, according to your explanation, we're mainly working on printing here by copper. When ink is applied to the copper plate and gently wiped off, the ink remains on the lined recess, and the trace is transferred onto the paper when pressed against the paper. It's called concave printing. There are three copper formwork techniques employed in this workshop. Engraving to sculpt straight into the copper plate. Etching where you scratch a copper plate coated with an anti-corrosion agent to peel off the anti-corrosion agent and corrode that part with acid to create a concave plate. And it's a transcriptional etching that transcribes the original painting into an anti-corrosion film by alchemy, causing that part to lose its corrosion resistance and corrosion. Instead of hiring an alchemist here, they use special magic tools.

Engraving and etching are familiar methods in the Earth world, but transcriptional etching is a unique technique in the world of swords and magic. If it's only about draft, a workshop craftsman makes copper plates in engraving and etching, but with proper original paintings. They say it's early because copper plates can be made with transcriptional etching.

"Mr. Crowe's original painting was stunning enough to give me a sigh of relief. I was able to use it under the prints as it was, so it was quick."

"There are a lot of things in sigh, too. I hope you're not whining and sighing."

"Ha, joke. Praise. Oh, this is what I want to show you."

If you look at it, it's a fine frame decorated with copper plates...... isn't that my painting!?

"This... what the hell?

"I keep the original printed paintings, no matter what they are, and I keep the copper plates as well, but this is how some of them are made to decorate. Parents said it was good for young craftsmen's goals. I was hoping to get that forgiveness and hope you did enough...... can you forgive me again?

To tell the truth, it's a bad decision, because the copyright has already been given to Lupa and Sir Partridge... As far as I'm concerned, I'm not in a position to disagree.

"Lupa...... if Sir Holbeck and Sir Partridge have no differences, then nothing for themselves.... To be honest, it's a bad decision."

With that said, Michelle, you made yourself look clearly relieved.

"I have an understanding between you two. Thank you for your forgiveness. Thanks to you, the name of our workshop has been raised."

I left the workshop behind on this day feeling scattered and restless.
