Magi Craft Meister

Well, it's the 13th of May.

After completing their breakfast, which centered on freshly baked bread, Nin went out to their destinations as planned.

Jin and Gou decided to investigate the filter attached to the well first because they were making a magic tool to extract the mineral content from the water.

Let me analyze the filter in the well in front of the village's mayor's house. Of course, with a word of disclaimer.

Filter... I see.

"... Jin-sama, what kind of structure is it?"

"It seems that the mineral content is filtered with very fine fibers, but it is not enough."

When I saw that there was a little bit of scale around the filter, it didn't seem like it was a waste at all, but when I looked up the water after filtration with "analysis (analysis)", I found that it still contained a lot of minerals.

"In the first place, it's not enough just to filter out the ingredients dissolved in water, right?"

Oh, right.

All right, Gow, what do we do?

I thought about it a little last night, but I didn't get a good idea. But how about now that you've had a good night's sleep?

I came up with a big device.

"Oh, that's fine." What kind of structure is it? "

"Yes. Well, there is a method called" distillation "to remove the substances dissolved in water." That's why..... "

It was very similar to the "Water Purifier" that Ren and Reinhard had once commissioned in the Kingdom of Elias to be the lord of the state of Zaus, the Marquis Dominique de Firenziano.

Gowe should not have known about it, so it seemed to him that he had come to it with his own thoughts, and Jen was glad.

But...

“That's a good idea. If we were to make seawater fresh, that would be very helpful. But it's a bit too expensive to use in this village."

I was aware of such a disadvantage.

"That's right, isn't it?... the cost was a problem last night, too.”

I was glad to be praised, but knowing that it was still far from practical, Gow was in a mixed mood.

I was worried yesterday, but I'm worried about what to do with the separated minerals.

“I know, but I've got a little something coming up after a night's sleep.”

"Eh! That's Jin-sama!" How does it work? "

"That's right..."

Jen's idea was to lay a net on the bottom of the container and trap the minerals separated under the net.

"Awesome! Then it's going to work."

Gou praised him for letting go, but Jin denied it with a sinister face.

"No, it's not enough yet."

“Why?”

Gou inadvertently asks a reflexive question in response to the negative words of Jen.

Jen began to explain by asking Gou to think like that.

“First of all, how do we separate?”

Isn't that how you use magic circles?

Yeah. In that case, where will the magic circle be engraved?

It must be at the bottom of the container.

"Yeah, that's what happens." However, perhaps it is because the mineral concentration of the bottom water is thinner, the water in the container will be difficult. "

Isn't it circulating?

"It will be difficult." The mineral water will certainly be a little lighter, but I don't think it will be enough to provide natural convection. "

"Is that so..."

Gou also thought about it.

"You can't have me shaking or scratching you, can you?"

I don't think so.

"Hmmm..."

"If we don't convect naturally, we'll have to convect artificially..."

"Ah, that's it!" After all, Jin-sama is amazing. "

Jen came up with the idea that, along with the magic circle that separates the minerals, the magic circle that stirs the water should also be engraved.

Well, it seems like we can achieve our goal.

Still not satisfied with something?

"Yeah.... look at that." What if the bucket is swirling all the time? "

”... restless or creepy”

Isn't that right?

Well, what about adding features like a timer and stirring sometimes?

"This will be the next best course of action....."

However, it seemed that it would not be the best way, and Jen thought about it again.



Well, it was Saki and Rubina.

The two went first to the east of the village.

You were on the border with the old kingdom of Leonard, in the mountains that separated the country from the rest of the world.

"... limestone. It used to be the bottom of the ocean around here."

Ah, surely, the limestone was made of the carcasses of ancient creatures piled up?

"Yes, it's called biological origin." Others are made of chemical precipitation. These things seem to be of biological origin. "

"How do you know?"

"Because it contains fossils. See?"

"Ah....."

A pale grain pattern floated on the limestone that Saki pointed to.

"Fuzlina limestone." It's a limestone containing the fossil of an organism called "Spindleworm". "

Fusulina is a single-celled protozoa that inhales in the warm sea, also known as spindle bugs.

Limestone is made of coral and spindle worm carcasses, so it can be seen that its source used to be the bottom of the sea.

In Japan, it is produced in the ancient strata of Chichibu, and the Chichibu region of Saitama prefecture is one of Japan's leading limestone producers.

Besides, that mountain is probably made of [chart].

Is that a chart?

"Yeah. Like crystals and quartz, silicon dioxide is a hard, elaborate rock."

How do you know that?

Rubina wondered if she could tell from a distance.

Kufu, that's it.

Saki picked up the stone that was falling under his feet.

This is how the debris comes to the bottom.

"Oh, I see..."

By the way, "Mt. Ryugami" rises to the west of Chichibu region.

It is said that the mountain body, which can be likened to the Iwato of Ameno, is made of a huge chart with a width of about 8 kilometers from east to west and 2 to 3 kilometers from west to east.

Rubina seemed to wake up to the fun of seeing something she hadn't seen before.

Interesting, geology as well.

Kufu, is that right?

That's what Rubina told me, and Saki didn't seem to be bothered either.

And then the two of them checked the rocks and rocks under their feet... "
