"Old man, here we go!!
"Hurry up, kid. I did, but I didn't expect you so soon."
"What are you talking about? About the case, right? Did it work?
"... ahh. Happily, the boy's experiment was successful. This way, you can actually see it."
I was working in the city of Fontana and an old man in Vulcania contacted me.
I received reports of the results of a clandestine experiment.
I came to Vulcania as soon as I heard that.
Because I had to check on the results no matter what I did now.
Walk after the old man.
Proceed to the off-limits location at Barca Castle.
I have risen to the position of prime minister and general in Fontana, but basically, I strictly manage important things in Vulcania.
Among them, we went to a particularly important classified compartment.
"Coon"
"... it's true. I'm turning iron into silver. You did it, old man. This dog is using silver smelting."
"Oh, this silver smelting is no coincidence. I checked many times before I contacted the boy. He can definitely convert iron into silver. You did it, kid. I didn't think I could do this."
I see. In fact, I didn't think it would work either. But this experiment was a big success. It's a huge success. "
What I saw in the top secret compartment was a white dog using magic to turn steel made from a flame blast furnace in Vulcania into silver.
Dog Man.
The monster that once appeared in the Baltic Knights mine ruled by my part-time brother, I brought back a dog with a slightly different kind of white body hair.
The dog was able to use special magic.
A normal dog monster uses magic to change the shape of iron, but an individual named Taro, a white dog, turned iron into silver.
Because unprocessed iron ore like falling into the mine has low purity and can only be used to make it difficult to use as a weapon for silver magic, white dogs like Tallow appeared to be in a lower position than regular black dogs, and were bullied and lived in a group of dogs.
But for me, being able to make silver was a very rare magic, so I brought it back to Vulcania.
And now, the dog I'm seeing is just like Taro, but he was younger than Taro.
Tallow is a different white dog.
I have a dog in front of me who can use the magic of turning the same iron into silver as Tallow.
It meant that Barca would get more silver.
"Well done, Tallow. We've got more friends."
Coon?
"Well, even if I say this, Taro doesn't understand. But I'm glad. He's just like you. It's the exact same gene, the Tallow clone."
Having acquired the existence of Tallow, I began raising it in secret.
Soon, however, the Tallow's silver smelting technique was used.
That and all of this is bad money.
I used the unprecedented purity of Tallow's silver as a showcase and issued a Vulcan bank voucher to borrow money from people with money.
Balkan banknotes are, to say the least, similar to government bonds.
The Balkan bank will borrow the money and repay it after a certain period of time with the interest we determine.
And the showing money that was used to secure that repayment capacity was Tallow's sterling silver.
But this is also a very dangerous act.
If, for some reason, Tallow is lost, sterling silver is not available, or the territory is inclined, it may become insolvent immediately.
For that reason, I was wondering how I could secure the same magical presence as Tallow.
At first, I wondered if Tallow could change iron into silver as much as humans liked if he named it after humans and Valkyries.
But the experiment was a failure.
So we took a different approach.
It was an experiment to clone Tallow.
Ask your part-time brother to secure a new living dog.
If the white dog man had it, he wouldn't have had to experiment, but he was usually found by a black lineage of dogs.
That's why I got the black dog.
I remembered the memory of the previous life and used it as a reference for how to make clones.
That said, I don't know the details.
I remembered the vague knowledge I heard somewhere and used it.
First, we have raw eggs from a black dog female.
Remove the unfertilized eggs from the mother and place them on a glass shark that the glassmaker had made.
And we pulled out the nucleus in the center of the unfertilized egg with another glass eyedropper.
It was a very delicate task, but I concentrated all my magic on my eyes.
Unfertilized eggs that have been removed from their nuclei are packed with tissue cultured from Tallow's cells.
The resulting processed unfertilized eggs are returned to the female mother and delivered.
We thought we might be able to clone it based on Tallow's genetic information.
But I couldn't clone it that easily.
Probably because amateurs do it properly without proper knowledge.
But I tried again and again without giving up.
That's how we succeeded this time.
The secret to success lies in the magic of recovery.
I tried a lot, but this time the successful clone was using healing magic along the way.
Healing magic is a terrible magic that can regenerate even lost limbs.
After applying such a powerful healing magic to the processed unfertilized eggs, she returned to her mother and conceived her.
Perhaps the strangely processed unfertilized eggs returned to normal growth by recovery magic.
But it was undoubtedly born as a white dog who inherited Tallow's genes.
It is also an individual who can use smelting silver magic.
"Come on, old man. This technique can further increase the number of white dogs. That means we can mass produce silver."
"Oh, I see. That's right, kid. That means...."
"... let's make silver coins. Outside the Fontana kingdom, it's getting noisy. Perhaps there is a problem with the circulation of currency. Before that happens, you should have a currency that you can trust."
The old man and I nodded as we stared at each other.
If Tallow's clones can continue to grow steadily in the future, this classified section of Barca Castle will literally become a hidden silver mine.
I have no hand in not using the silver.
In addition to being used as collateral for Vulcan banknotes in the future, we will also create new currencies.
This led to the creation of a mint in Balka to create a new currency.
