It's all one flower.

1937.The Importance of the Emblem

On the third day of his vacation, Rourke made his way to the shopping district of the capital, Lacrimaris.

I don't have anything that I particularly want. It was a social tour of the former star Shirube Sheets.

Slowly walk the streets of magical tool shops that are not on the mainland of the Artel Republic, tailors who produce to order according to the magic of the wearer, and stores selling various materials.

Sheets' tablet device was still connected to the internet.

I didn't sleep until late last night, and I seemed to be sleepy at breakfast, but after entering the shopping district, I looked around with my eyes shining.

This is where bird pendants come in.

"Huh?... Ah! Please come here a moment."

Rourke pulled the sheets into a narrow alley.

"I forgot to tell you, it's an ID."

"ID card? Bird pendant?"

Rourke whispered, and Sheetes retorted.

"The lineage of magic is divided into schools, and those who have mastered a certain school of magic more than a certain period of time will have to wear the school's emblem."

A badge? Is that a pendant?

"It used to be pinned to the collar, but now there are many people who lift it from their necks."

Ahh, the pin is dangerous, huh

Convinced in a strange direction, Rourke seemed to be relieved from his knees, but he refreshed his mind and explained.

For example, the bishop Kruchi I met yesterday in the library is a Crossing Swan school.

"Oh, if you ask me, it was a swan pendant." I can't imagine what kind of magic it is.

"It's a technique that forces you to keep your contracts and promises. Applying Forbidden Belt Out magic to books and things like that."

“What happens if I take out a non-loanable book?”

Curse triggers.

Sheetes twisted his face.

Even though you're a priest, you use strange magic

You can use other techniques besides that school, though.

Aren't you an expert on the curse?

"For example, the hauler washed you with [Pigeon of Spirituality] school's [Manipulation Water] technique." Since the technique used for housework is central, if you're a wizard, you can use it as common sense, so you won't wear the [Spiritual Pigeon] school badge. "

Isn't it just one school of thought?

No one has the badge to use all kinds of magic at once.

There's a way to learn that, isn't there?

Sheetes looked at the crowds of people passing by from the intersection of the store.

There are not many shitty experts who lift the badge from their necks. Some places are shopping districts, but there is one in ten people or none.

"And many countries use the death penalty for falsification of emblems and school fraud."

Huh?

"That's all, it's important in the magic civilization sphere." In the area of scientific civilization, it seems that many cousins are treated the same as common fraud and receive light penalties. "

So after the number of demon beasts increased, the fake exterminators increased the number of scammers selling their stingy amulets.

Sheets distorted her face with regret and clenched her fists.

Rourke raised a slightly brighter voice consciously.

The system of magic techniques that add magic effects to clothes is called the [crocheting (Yoshikiri)] school.

"Yoshikiri...?"

The sacred scriptures only mention people who make magic and people who use magic to activate magic.

Rourke listed the schools corresponding to the field of the Dao of the Stars.

The [Nest Suspension (Suka) Nest] School of Architecture, the [Flying Eagle (Taka)] School of Weapons and Armor, the [Knitting Eagle (Yoshikiri)] School of Tools and Clothing, the [Singing Eagle (Misozai)] School of Curse Song, and the [Dancing Sparrow] School of Dance.

"This school is classified by the" "Spiritual Wings" ", an international organization of magicians founded in the era of fighting the monsters of the third world, and the emblem (" "Shishi" ") is delivered there to test knowledge and technology."

Sheetes nodded sharply at Rourke's gluttonous explanation.

... I guess I've said too many things at once?

"The school of [crocheting (Yoshikiri)] is divided into specialties depending on what you make"

Even though it's the same magic?

It's a completely different technique to make clothes and pots, isn't it?

"Oh, that's what I'm talking about."

Yeah. It's the same incorporation technique, but if it's processed differently, it's like a different job.

Well, that's right.

"There are many shops in this shopping district that combine workshop and retail."

“Okay, I'll take care of the industry.”

The two left the alley and went back to the main street of the shopping district.

Spell shops, tailors, hardware stores, grocery stores... even the same [knitted crochet (Yoshikiri)] school has a variety of items to deal with, and there are many different types of stores.

There are also a wide range of materials stores that deal in a comprehensive manner, specialty stores for specific industries, and stores that specialize in only one type of material.

"There are places such as the magic medicine material store that some people who do not have the [Thinking Owl] school or the [Flying Owl] school medallion of a curse doctor can't sell."

"Heee..."

Sheets' eyes were drawn to shops displaying signs specializing in dye materials.

From the open door to the back of the shop, there's a shelf lined with bottles of colorful powder and liquid. On the opposite shelf, I saw raw roots, nuts, shells, monster and animal horns, and something like a dried fish.

There are some materials that you can't buy without the [Yoshikiri] school insignia.

"Isn't it possible for ordinary people to buy it?"

"Yes, if you're not an expert, you have to be a toxic object, or something that is dangerous to process without protective equipment because it's derived from a magical beast."

Sheng Cheng (I see). It's like a person in charge of handling hazardous materials.

Sheets is satisfied and leaves the front of the store.

Dye shops, yarn shops, fabric shops, yarn spinning workshops, dyeing workshops, weaving workshops, weaving workshops… When I went around the shopping district with a lot of artisans along with sheets, I found that workshops related to textiles and clothing seemed to be divided finely from process to process.

He is a textile designer in his original profession.

Hardware stores that also serve as metalworking workshops, and shops that serve as workshops for spells pass through, but tailoring shops, clothing sundry stores, and sundry stores that handle fabric products always stopped.

What's the price standard?

“If the deal is just barter, the price tag will show you one or two typical exchanges, and the other exchanges will show you the list at the cashier's desk.”

No, it's not, it's expensive or cheap.

It's at the store owner's discretion, but in terms of cloth products, spells and spell marks are the cheapest ones to dye, and the second, embroidered and woven ones are the most expensive.

Is it because it's all manual... can't it be mechanized?

If you could, you'd be wearing festive clothes like that a long time ago.

Ah...

The clothes of Kirkuk priests and festivals are all still handcrafted, and traditional handicrafts continue to be inherited in seminary and monastery.

According to Padre Reflexio, the Light Sword of Weapon has been manufactured for a long time, and only rusted artifacts exist in the Republic of Banksia and the Federation of Barbatum.

“Let's have a cup of tea and talk in that shop.”

Rourke took Seatets and entered a cafe with a private room.
