Magi Craft Meister

"Hey, Goose, do you know more about that paint?

"Hmm? Is that the sap from 'Toxoco'? Well, if it's easy, I know."

"Can you let me hear it?

"Fine."

Goose gave a brief explanation to Jin.

Toxoco is a tree. In autumn, it leaves red.

Some people may develop rashes when touching the trees and sap of toxocho.

Damaging the trunk produces sap, but that sap becomes that paint.

The sap collected shall be taken from the garbage and stored in a barrel or the like. At that time, cover with waterproof leather to avoid contact with air.

etc.

"As far as I know, it's called 'Urushi'..."

"Hmm, 'Urushi', huh? Once upon a time, they used to call the sap of toxocho 'Ruoma', and in some regions, 'Urushi'. That's a lot alike."

Goose is just as knowledgeable.

I don't know about Jen, but in fact, there is a theory that "rumor" and "moisture" are the sources of "Urushi", so it is not surprising that this name is similar.

Anyway, as for Jen, I was interested in Fuso's Urushi.

"I know. It's black. So, thinned gold leaf stickers, golden powder... or sowing and painting."

"Well, that's fancy. I also feel like that technique was more in the north. I've never been there before."

"I knew there was one"

"... is that a rash when you touch it?

"Huh? Oh, Saki"

It was Saki who had interrupted Jen and Goose's story.

"Kufu, were you interrupting?

"No, that's not true."

Jen immediately denies it. And look around the room,

"What about Elsa and Hannah?

asked.

"We're both helping clean up in the kitchen."

"Saki didn't help?

"... because if I were you, I'd be in the way rather than helping."

Jen bowed his head to Saki, who replied on the top of the Buddha.

"Something, I'm sorry"

"Fine. It's true."

To such a saki, Goose turned and answered.

"So, I told Jen, I'm going to get a rash. It also comes to my physique, but I hear someone has a rash just passing under the tree."

"Oh, that's scary... do you even have a rash in your bowl?

If so, I am Saki, who is a little frightened.

"Ha, it's okay. I don't get dry toxos."

"I'm relieved to hear that..."

It was a relieving saki.

Elsa and Hannah were helping out in the kitchen.

"I'm so sorry, I need you to help me."

Two women, like the village chief's wife and son's daughter-in-law, thank Elsa and the others.

The village chief's wife is in her mid-fifties when it comes to Ritze. My son's daughter-in-law is Separei, in her twenties. I see him there.

Elsa was washing things with Ritze.

"Instead of rent,"

"If you want to pay the rent, we'll be there."

"But it's a feeling"

"Jin-shi, you have a daughter-in-law."

"Eh." "

It was a word in dialect, but I knew what it meant. Elsa turns her face bright red.

"I'm not your wife yet."

"Oh well. But the" not yet "thing is the" no more "word."

And when Elsa tried to say something back, Hannah, who was wiping the dishes she washed with Separei, raised her voice.

"Dishes, I'm done wiping!

"Oh, Hannah, thank you."

"This plate is light and beautiful!

Hannah and the others mainly used baked goods… ceramic plates or just wooden vessels.

Jen has also made a lot of household items for me, but there were many houses in Kaina village that used traditional dishes.

The ceramics are stain-resistant and easy to wash, but heavy, and also easy to crack.

Wooden vessels are light but stained with dirt.

However, the vessel here was stain-resistant and beautifully finished with toxoco sap… 'Urushi'.

"Ha, thank you. It's not a village product, are you glad you said so?"

Separei laughed happily.

"Even so, Hannah and Elsa are white and beautiful. Hair is so glittery."

Now Separei gently touches Hannah's hair with a little envy.

"Um, but it's okay to have dark hair like you."

"Dark or Hair......"

Separei looked away.

"Jin-chan, you're a legendary sage."

"Huh? Dense, isn't it?

Hannah asked back. Because he knew that one of the reasons Jen came to the land was to find out about The Wise Man.

"Oh, legendary sage. She's got white skin, like Hannah, and she told me she had black hair."

"Hmmm......"

Hannah thought I'd let Jen hear this story when she got back. So I'll ask you more.

"What did you do, Mr. Kinja?

Then Separei opened her mouth to remind her a little.

"I hope he taught a lot of things to people in Husson Country."

"For example?"

"Toxoko sap on a konjuku can be applied, paper can be made, and..."

Many of the different cultural civilizations that we now pass on are those conveyed by the wise, Separei explained to Hannah.

"Yeah, well, that was hard on you."

Separei smiled at Hannah.

He said, "Oh, my God, I'm so sorry."

"Hey, where did that come from?

I'll ask Jen a question about that. Hannah.

"Either way, I don't know."

Hannah was disappointed to hear that.

"That's right..."

Separei, who saw how it was, slapped Hannah on the shoulder to cheer her up,

"If you go to town, not Konmura, you might know someone."

He told me.

"Town...?

"That's right. If you're in the town of Nade-chun, north of the Cyclo Wetlands, there are people who are familiar with it from Taika."

"Nade town..."

"Hannah, are you heading north? Then I'll meet someone I know."

"Yeah, thanks, Mr. Separei!

Hannah rushed to give this information to Jen as soon as possible.

Separei looked smiling at Hannah's back like that.
