gossip: souvenirs and technological innovation

"... ohhh! This is fantastic -!

I gave Nerne the "perpetual fountain pen" for a souvenir of sightseeing in Teito, and that would have made me very happy already.

"Gu Gu, I want to disassemble it...... but this, it takes protection and they have a trick where the magic formation disappears when it disassembles......!

"Is there such a thing?

"It was on the smear in the instructions -! That's Brave Workshop."

Is it the spiritual soldier of God, the cheat skill of the brave?

"Hmm, I guess I can't make the same one with that"

"It looks like if you shed magic, the ink will replenish you. Water, and black... dirt, maybe?

By the way, the transverse side of the fountain pen had a transparent plate, where you could see the ink residue.

Finally, the ink colors were not just black, but also colorful things like red, blue and green. I only bought the most basic black this time though.

"Do you make ink out of water?

"Is it not -?

"No, I don't. Why don't you use oil or something?

What about regular ink, by the way? That said, they make this again using a magic prop called "Inkmaker Kun" made by "Brave Workshop". Where is normal...

"... I mean, that 'brave workshop' even has a monopoly on technology."

"Right. Or that no one else could imitate it."

Around hundreds of years of surviving a workshop, you make 'Props to Make Props' or something. Right. Or if he's still alive.

... Let's not think deeply.

By the way, I didn't buy "No Firewood Needed Pot" or "Heating Pot Kun," but I told him I had something like that.

"The 'stove' the master said before is more user-friendly. It can also be used in a regular pan and is easy to replace -. If it's a magic prop, it's a piece of iron, so we don't even take a place.

"... if you ask me, it would be convenient, stove"

"Oh, yeah. Mr. Garr, bring me the prototype fire number 16... yes, thank you."

My assistant Gargoyle brought a sassy box silently and gave it to Nerne.

When Nerne, who received the box from Gargoyle, turned his head, Gargoyle went back to the corner of the room satisfied or not.

What was in the box was a barbecue board engraved with magic formations.

"This is the prototype stove - It's homemade because it's a prototype, but since it has dial magic formations when I made the previous cottage, I can also adjust the strength and weakness."

The prototype stove had a dial and five protrusions at the end of the five virtues on which the pan was placed. How long have you been making such handy goods?

I think I'll have one made for me as a saggy adventurer. I became a b-rank adventurer once, and I just want those useful goods.

"That's Nerne, you were making that"

"... thanks to the master. It's made of dirt, so if you stay in the bag and carry it, it cracks, but a master can easily mass produce it on an iron plate, right?

I can't mass produce it on iron plates, but it's a pain in the ass. Very.

The whole stove is going to get hot while I'm using it for that.

Then let's not think about carrying it for now, but use that barbecue board to make one. It's a prototype or something.

"Right, can you build a base of trees that can frame barbecued boards? I want the projection to be strong, so let's just drill it and stab the iron plate. Um... drilling here doesn't affect the magic team, does it?

I kinda keep the barbecue board, scrape the margins in [Creative Golem], and hole the protruding part. All you have to do is build a wooden plate to fit this, and you'll just have to stab the iron plate to complete it.

Yeah, thin stove, it's going to feel good.

"... then when you carry it, if you lid it with a tree, you won't worry less about cracking it either. Then I can make it without bothering your husband."

"Oh, nice. That's Nerne. Then make it with it."

Whoa, will you even make a lid? After all, our fellow researchers are excellent.

I returned the barbecue board painted by the magic team to Nerne. You showed it to Gozo when it was done.

"Not because I'm good, but because of your husband."

"Don't be modest, Nerne. I'm counting on you!

"... not humble, eh? I have an idea."

Ha-ha, and Nerne sighs.

"You can use the Demon Stone all you want, and you can make a magic formation out of the dirt, because if Master Cantara hears about it, it's a level where you look away and pass out, huh?

"Ah. Speaking of which, I'd like to put a timer on the oven, can you interact with the golem timer? I hope there's a switch that feels like I'm gonna leave it on until it's twisted and back in position."

"See, that's how we innovate again -? Wow. Ahem."

Nerne came pounding.

Ha, yum, yum. It only hurts a little, so leave it at that.

It seems that "make it with it" was passed on to the meaning of "mass production with that policy" at a later date, and ten thin stoves were completed after the hit.

Mass production is now possible... it would have been nice to have one.

I decided to give Nerne a tabletop oven toaster (made from an undead egg shell) for the lab as a bonus. I connected the stove and the shell of the immortal bird with [Creative Golem] and made it, and it looks like it could be done.

Now you can eat all you want toast or something. Would you be happy?

"... Master Cantara, it's suffocation level. No, it's easy to barbecue in the lab, and it's getting progressive."

"Oh, it will be."

"Yes, thank you -.... and a tabletop oven, and it's new again -"

... Well, you seem happy, more importantly.

Let's just raise one of the remaining stoves to Mr. Kinue, and then put it in the dungeon chest. In a big winning frame.
