I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~
Episode 12 - I'm 7 years old
"Mr. Vincent, what is this?
"That barrel is salt. It is heavy, so leave it to adults.
"It's okay, I can carry it. Can I carry all five?"
Seven years old, I'm helping Mr. Vincent with the peddler's grandmother. I'm just transferring the carriage's luggage to the village chief's warehouse. Mr. Vincent is a peddler who has been welcoming me since the beginning of this pioneering village, and is a normal adult who has no overall characteristic characteristics such as being over 40 years old with medium back meat, black hair, green eyes, and a moustache. They say it's based in Dolton, a seaside adventurer town that went northwest from here.
Adventurer Town! This has to go once. It's about a six-day journey by carriage, so it's about 350-400 km away. The horses in this world are not so large and fast, so considering the rough road surface and the luggage carriage, they can only move at speeds of about 8 km/h. It's fast enough for adults to run side-by-side. Considering that you can only run for about eight hours a day at the most, you'll be roughly 400 km away from it in reverse. However, it is likely to take a detour route slightly north, as it will move along the large forest and increase the risk of monsters. The feeling of the previous life is between Tokyo and Nagoya. The nearest town will know the distance and how the village borders.
Grab a wooden barrel about the size of a single can on both shoulders and carry it to the warehouse. About 20 kg each? About 40 kg for two. Sure it's heavy, but I have body strengthening magic, and I don't have it.
"No, really, are you seven? It looks more powerful than me.
To Mr Vincent's stunning and impressive lines, I return with a vague smile and carry on the shipment. In fact, if you do your best to strengthen your body, you can do more than just normal adults. I rarely do it because the recoil is strong afterwards. Instead, I was able to strengthen my body all day long.
This is not to say that the proficiency of physical enhancement magic has increased, but rather that the amount of magic and the overall proficiency of magic have increased. Whatever the evidence, the number of polygons that can be used in planar magic has increased considerably in the past two years. It's already hard to count, but it's probably slightly over 10 million polygons. I was surprised at the slightly too sharp rate of increase. And finally, you can use lights, nulls, joints and bindings.
I think it's just a name that isn't familiar in the world, so let me explain it a little bit. The light can now produce a light source in the same sense. As you may be surprised, the operation of the light source is a basic part of the 3DCG tool. It's so strange that I haven't been able to do it before. You can create two kinds of spotlights: a "dot light source" like a light bulb and a "spotlight" like a searchlight. There are many more kinds of 3DCG tools, but other light sources are a little special, so you don't have to use them. As it stands, these two are sufficient. Especially the spotlight, which is quite user-friendly. It is used to escape in the middle of the night and go hunting, but there is no light leaking around. What enters the conical space reflects light and brightens it, but the light source and its conical space do not shine at all. Besides being difficult to find around the village or in the forest monsters, it is not dazzling even if it is fixed to the forehead as a headlamp, and both hands become free and do not interfere with movement. Super convenient!
Null is an object with coordinates and no substance. There is little use of this alone, and it exerts real value when used in combination with other functions. There are many ways to do this, but it's too much to explain, so let's take another chance.
And it's a joint. It's all about the rattling joints and the bones. However, there is no entity in this joint itself. It's the same as the null I saw earlier. It is used to associate an object with this joint, and if the joint moves, the object also follows. This association is called a binding. If it's Japanese, you can tie it or tie it... it's a word that DM seems happy about. There are two types of this binding, 3DCG: soft and rigid, but now you can only use rigid. A rigid binding is an association that only rotates and moves like a machine, without deformation of the object. Soft binding involves deformation. It's around the joints of creatures. There are a lot of things that can be made if you can use soft bindings, but you have to keep practicing believing that you will be able to use them someday. However, it is now possible to create objects that are not simple but can be moved in a complicated manner. Dreams just swell.
What I bought in the village this time was as usual salt, cloth, dry goods, etc. I feel that there has been a slight increase in the purchase of dried meat in the past 2-3 years. Probably because I had to buy it from the outside, because the monster raid dropped because of me. Maybe we should drive them to the village sometimes? I finished shipping my luggage while I was thinking about it.
"Thank you, Beat-kun. This is a waste of money. Take care of yourself.
That said, Mr Vincent gave me a large bronze coin.
Yes, I also know about the currency. There are six kinds of coins in total: bronze, big bronze, silver, big silver, gold, and big gold. Three different materials and two different sizes. The smaller coins are slightly smaller than a yen coin, the thicker coins are slightly larger than a 500 yen coin, and the thicker coins are slightly thicker than a 500 yen coin. In other words, 10 bronze coins is 1 large bronze coin, 10 large bronze coins is 1 silver coin. One large gold coin is 100,000 copper coins. They don't have any units of money like yen or dollar, and they use this number of coins as is. It is the value of money, but it seems that one piece of copper is about 10 yen in the previous life. It's a reasonable place to think about 2,000 to 3,000 yen, because a normal inn in the city has two to three silver coins for a private room overnight stay. I've heard from Mr. Vincent's escort adventurers around here. Five large gold coins at my purchase price are about 5 million yen. What about the price of a child who can't yet work satisfactorily... Considering the amount of maintenance and profits until then, it could be a subtle and realistic amount. Ah, is it actually (real) bought and sold for this amount?
"Thank you, Mr. Vincent. I'll give it to the village chief!
After thanking him, he ran to the village chief who was checking at the warehouse. My husband collects all the slave earnings once. Ten percent of them will be paid to slaves. The reward given is that the slave is free to use it. You can use it for entertainment, or you can save and buy yourself. Of course I save up to buy myself. The reward this time is just one bronze coin, it's only about 10 yen, but I hope this will be a step towards 5 million yen...
"Village Chief, Mr. Vincent has wasted his money! Yes, this!
"Fu, you should keep all that beat. My reward for the shipment.
The village chief told me while stroking my head. Mmm, as cool as ever. It's a different type of coolness than your father. Taking your father as Kim, the village chief is Ken Ogura. []/(adj-i) sinister/sinister/
"Thank you, village chief! Take care of yourself!
I thank you for the big bronze coins in my pants pocket. Vincent and Anna, one of the guards, arrived there.
"Boy, I don't care about spending money. Why don't you buy one of those sweets from Vincent's husband?
"Yikes! It's round and beautiful, so make it a treasure!
I answered reflectively, but it might have been a good answer to keep the village chief from taking notice of my intentions. It's actually beautiful. This coin is very elaborate because of its pre-medieval level of culture. Scales and laurels on the surface and owls on the back are patterned and engraved, but their accuracy is comparable to that of previous generations' currencies. It's obviously over-tech. We may need to look into this area someday.
"No, it's true that money is a treasure, but we and Beat-kun seem to be looking at its essence differently, so it makes us think about something.
"Haha, this kid is smart enough to understand things, so I'm a little relieved to see things like this.
Oh, it's soothing. It's a little embarrassing. Sometimes you have unintentional childish behavior. Maybe she's being pulled by her body. But I can start a new life in the corner, so I can make it more childish among children. When I thought about it, Anna began to grab me and stroke her head. It seems that he touched the harp line. Mm, my chest! I didn't promise anything, but it hurts even when I'm pressed against a hard leather breast plate. Be childish while saying, "Don't" (?) Be caressed.
"So, what do you think? Is there anything missing?
"No, as ordered. If possible, I'd like you to split the salt a little bit. Do you have any?
Somewhat. Are you paying for extra potatoes?
"No, this is it. Assess it.
"Is this a magic stone? At this size... two large silver coins. Salt is 2 barrels.
"Okay, that's fine. Thanks again.
Oops, I got a deal while you're petting me. The magic stone was about 1.5cm in size. Is that about 20,000 yen for two large silver coins? That means if you collect 250 of those sizes, you'll get 5 big gold coins. No, 90% of what I earned while I was a slave, 10% of what I earned as a village mayor, 2,500 pieces in total. I just want a total of about 8,000 pieces for my father and mother. I saw a specific goal. All we have to do is hunt monsters. I have accumulated about 2000 Magic Stones so far. If you earn 6,000 more, you're free. All right, let's do it!
That's right, Anna-san, you look kind of bald, so it's time to stop.
