"I'm not that familiar with you, though."

About three different desiccants are used in real life?

Silica gel, calcium chloride, and calcareous. Charcoal is also hygroscopic, but this time it was not put into the candidate.

Silica gel seems to be silicon dioxide, or SiO2, but the silicon dioxide normally seen is quartz and crystals, which Jen didn't know how to absorb moisture, so pass.

Since calcium chloride is one of the 'dust' ingredients found in seawater, it can also be separated from the jen. This causes a phenomenon called 'tidal dissolution' where moisture is inhaled and dissolved.

Jen knew that the raw lime was calcium oxide and that he could cook the shells with fire and make them.

If we do this, the first things we seem to be able to make are calcium chloride and raw lime.

Each has its own drawbacks.

Calcium chloride is difficult to handle because it has a high moisture absorption but ends up being an aqueous solution. You can't just leave the chunks there.

And raw lime. Moisture wicking results in calcium hydroxide, or calcium extinguishing, which helps to improve acidic soils to alkalinity. Nevertheless, when water is hung on the raw lime, there is a sudden fever enough to ignite.

Sometimes a bag of raw lime had rain-leaking rain that caused a fire.

Because of this, the self-sake in the can uses this fever.

"... so"

Jen was describing the desiccant proposal toward Elsa, Saki and Toa.

"Hmm, there's a long one, short one."

Toa said it like he was impressed.

"Is that silica gel difficult even for gin? So that means either raw lime or calcium chloride. I'd choose raw lime."

Saki looks like a raw lime pusher.

"Me too, I think raw lime would be nice. If you don't hang the water directly, you'll be fine. If you spill calcium chloride, it looks dangerous."

Elsa's opinion was legitimate. In fact, even on modern Earth, calcium-based desiccants are for business use.

"Don't think I like raw lime too"

Toa also agreed.

"Okay, then let's go with that line"

Penglai is an island but therefore rich in seafood. I can pick a lot of shellfish similar to clams, so much so that I look forward to miso soup when miso is produced in mass.

It also serves as a stew set, so the shells accumulate quite a bit.

Magic engineer Magicraft Jazz doesn't throw away anything that's likely to be material for nothing.

"Experiment first."

When calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is cooked at about 1100 degrees Celsius, such as seashells and limestone, carbon dioxide (CO2) is separated into calcium oxide (CaO).

It is an experiment that is sometimes also carried out in high school chemistry.

When seashells were placed in a crust made of carbon and heated with the engineering magic 'Heating (Heat)', the shells turned into raw lime.

"Hmm, that's not funny"

Alchemist Toa is intrigued.

"Jin's engineering magic is handy. I wish I could use it."

Saki glances over Jen's shoulder. The hair plundered Jen's nose tip.

Saki has even more hair quality than before because it has Aal on it and every day in the hot springs on Penglai.

Jen, who smelled the scent of her hair, became uncommon and stunned.

"... Brother Jin, do you have a fever when you hang water on this?

Sensitive to Jen's slightly reddened face, Elsa glances from the opposite side of Saki and turns Jen's consciousness towards herself half forcefully.

"Ah, oh. Then let's transfer this to this dish and hang the water."

The raw lime that can be produced is changed to calcified lime by setting up a hot air.

"Kufu, that's funny. This is chemistry."

Saki was purely enjoying the change, but Elsa was somehow getting more in her chest.

And Jen said that she had doubts about how fast her heart beats when she was caught by the two of them.

"Hmm, Jin, the work process itself is easy. Then you use cheap ingredients and heat them in a cheap way, and you need these two."

Toa gave me a quick summary. If it is to be produced outside Penglai, it must naturally be considered.

"Sure, you should be fine with limestone instead of seashells, and you heat it up... hmm, 1100 degrees says firewood. Then I guess I can't..."

It's hard to get a high temperature of 1100 degrees Celsius without using a coke and using a method that pumps air (oxygen) into it.

"I wonder if this is the only place I'm going to use a magic guide..."

"I don't use it personally, so if we do it well, it's profitable, isn't it?

Toa agrees. Year after year, Toa has a good account of these versus costs. I wish I hadn't lost my appetite right now...... and Saki was reputating his father inside.

"Right, Mr. Toa is right.... keep the heater in a black box and try to self-destruct it if you try to remove it..."

Looks like Jen already has a vision in his head.

"And then that limestone? where you can pick it, I guess."

Saki put in a supplement.

"Yeah. But well, I think it's okay to use shells and egg shells at first"

Jen, who replied so, realized that this plant could not be launched in the Klein kingdom without the sea.

"Hmmm... seashell... shellfish..."

Jen, who thought about it, once remembered.

"Elsa, I remember hearing that a shellfish fossil was picked on Lake Tosmo,"

I feel that in Toscotia, the border town between the Kingdom of Celluloa and the Empire of Shouro, Mateus, Berche's brother, said such a thing.

"Yeah, I do have a place to pick it.... Oh, there's limestone?

Jen nodded.

"Oh. To say that fossils come out is to say that it was the bottom of the ocean a long time ago. That means limestone is likely to be picked"

Limestone is made from the deposition of sea urchins, corals, seashellfish, etc. in the ancient sea of Tai. Therefore, to say that fossils will emerge is to say that limestone is likely to exist.

"Speaking of which, you haven't been to the Shawlo Empire lately..."

And I've thought of something even more.

"Barlow and Bale need to get him back home, too. Then we have to report the demons."

Now it's settled.

"All right, do you decide to go to the Empire of Shouro?... Oh, if I were to go, it would be after tomorrow."

"... why that day?

"Because it's the day after tomorrow that Brother Jin's treatment ends."

It was Elsa who answered Saki's question.

"Will Saki and Mr. Toa go, too?

It was Toa who answered such Jen's question.

"No, we're just going home a little bit, hey. Don't worry about it this time."

"Really?"

So Jen asks Elsa the same question.

"I'm coming with you"

Elsa, who grabbed Jen's clothes hem tightly, replied without getting her hair in between.

"Okay. Then I'll have to talk to the two of you and get ready. Let's go to Reinhardt first and say hello... well, let Reinhardt do this plant too"

Elsa thought Adberg's struggles were going to increase again as she listened to Jen whine.

The village of Kaina was also raining that day.

Jen, who moved to Nido Castle, calls Barlow and Bere.

"Huh? Homecoming, is it?

The two shouted in a different tone.

"Can I go home?

"Oh, I hope so. I'd rather be late than sorry."

But Barrow and Bale are both excited. Are you listening to Jen or not?

"I wanted to go home once! Oh, you're not saying I don't like it here. Rather, the more I want to work all the time!

"Oh well. That's fine. Uh, on the way, I'll be going via the Kingdom of Egerea. I want you to have fun on the road."

"Thank you!

In fact, the other day, the fifth row (Quinta) that I'm sending to Blueland, Leggles 5, soon found out that Count Kuzma and Beana were going to have a wedding, so I wanted to celebrate that as well.

Jen will also tell the two of us about it.

"Okay. I will serve you as deacon and samurai."

Jen is impressed that it has been solid for a long time.

"Because I'm leaving in three days. If you have any luggage or souvenirs you want to take with you, you should prepare them. I don't care how many."

"Yes!"

Jen's 'how much' literally means I don't care how much there is, but the two of them thought it was a slightly daunting rhetoric coming from Jen's kindness.

That doesn't change the outcome. Only Elsa, still grabbing Jen's clothes hem, was aware of this.
