Wow, did you build the imitation blast furnace at first?

"That's not true. This imitation flame blast furnace built here in Bootica territory [attribute added] flame ore to the balkan steel."

"It's not synthetic, is it? Does that mean that the output is not as high as the original flame blast furnace?

"That's right, Ars. It was possible to create an imitation flame blast furnace simply by using a small amount of precious flame ore. In addition, it has been confirmed that using the Performance Enhancement magic of the Bootica family will produce the same amount of firepower as the normal flame blast furnace."

"I see. But why did you make a imitation of a blast furnace? What happened to [synthesizing] with other materials?"

"The Bootica family has useful magic, but it does not deny the non-magic technology itself. On the contrary, the ability to create high-quality objects without using magic is not a big deal. From that point of view, the flame blast furnace is highly rated. After all, we can build up the existing iron like never before."

"In other words, you acknowledged the high quality of Vulcan steel. So I asked for the equipment to make that steel."

"That's right. It seems that the Bootica family surrendered without fighting because of the presence of the blast furnace. And now I'm studying whether there's anything that can be [synthesized] using that steel."

"... hey, Gran. I don't really get it. If you use flame ore on the steel and [add attributes] it will produce flaming steel, right? [Synthesis] Does it mean anything?

"Hmm, that's not a natural question. I checked that first. Master Luke taught me all the details."

"Lord Luke. You must be the husband of the Bootica family. What did he say?

"It was Luke's assertion that the purpose was basically different. [Attribute addition] makes it possible to add an attribute that emits a flame to steel. But that's not all. However, if Synthesis succeeds in a true sense, it is possible to grow the materials."

"Growing materials?

"I'm sure Ars will understand. A hard tooth sword made with big pig's teeth. Through magic, the magic effect of Curing is exerted. However, even if you poured a lot of magic, it didn't become harder than a certain amount. But the fangs of the larvae of the big pig are different. Young beast fangs are a growing material, and nobles could grow as weapons rather than hard tooth swords by pouring magic on them from generation to generation. The result is an iron sword, not a later holy sword."

"I see. So you want to create [Synthetic] materials for a growing weapon that will become the sword of a noble family treasure. It's not just adding attributes."

"That's right. The wind sword of the magical sword of the Rubić family was made here in the [synthesis] of the Boutika family."

"Oh, is that so? By the way, what did you use for that material?

"It's confidential. Although the Bootica family is working with Barca, they are not disclosing all the information. However, they [synthesized] metal and monster materials."

You're not telling me? Well, that's fine. "

Travel to Gran, who is working with the Bootica family.

Apparently, I can tell you some common things, but some of the top secret information seems to be confidential.

Perhaps even if we could say some things in the joint study, we arranged not to be able to say anything about the content of the research originally carried out by the Boutika family.

I'm curious, but I don't think it's a good idea to go too far.

I'm doing some interesting research, and if I can get some good research results for Balka, I won't go any further.

As I spoke, I traveled to the place where the newly built imitation flame furnace was located.

It seems that this is the compartment that Barca is studying with among the many secrets of the Bootica family.

"Welcome. We've been expecting you, Ars."

"Long time no see, Lord Luke. You've been the leader of this joint study with Balka."

"Yes, it is an honor to work with Lord Grant like this. It gives you unprecedented awareness."

"Really? You can't use Synthetic magic like a Bootica.

"Yeah, that's right, but [synthesis] is all we do. More than that, technology other than magic is an element that cannot be ignored in manufacturing. No matter how much good material you get, whether you can handle it properly or not, it will become treasure and garbage."

"You're absolutely right. But it's still important to know if you can make a growth material. I heard that even metal and monster materials can be synthesized . Perhaps you have already [synthesized] the teeth of the larvae of the big pig?

"Yes, and I'm trying out other demonic materials. Well, I haven't done what I said yet."

Really? If so, can I join? There's something I want you to [synthesize] a little. "

"Oh, is it [synthetic] that Ars wants? That's fine. However, please be careful that the materials used for Synthesis will not return to the original regardless of success or failure."

"I know. This is what I want you to [synthesize]. Thank you very much."

A room in the equipment of an imitation flame blast furnace.

There was Luke.

[Performance Enhancement] is used to train iron by exerting high temperature heat into the furnace like a flame blast furnace.

They're trying a slightly different method than Grant's steel.

The figure is a skilled blacksmith, never distracted only by the magical effects, but also by the artisanal style.

I gave Luke the materials he wanted me to [synthesize].

But Luke looked a little confused.

Because there wasn't any metal in the material I gave you.

The idea of producing God's iron material, which is the aspiration of the Boutika family.

That's an interesting thing to say, but it doesn't have anything to do with me.

That's why I didn't stick to metal.

All the ingredients I prepared for [synthesis] were non-metallic.

Bewildered by the lines on the desk, Luke activated Synthesis and crush magic for his hands.
