"Old man, here we are!!

"That's fast, kid. I did call you, but I never thought you'd be here so soon."

"What are you talking about? About the example, right? You succeeded?

"... oh. Delighted, the boy's experiment was a success. This way, you should actually take a look."

My old man in Vulcania contacted me when I was working in the city of Fontana.

I received a report that the results of an experiment I had been conducting in secret.

When I heard that, I immediately came to Vulcania.

Because now I had to check on the results, no matter what.

Follow the old man on foot.

Proceed to a no-access location other than that of the officials at Barca Castle.

Although I have risen to the rank of Chancellor, Grand General, etc. in Fontana, this is basically how I manage Barca's important things strictly in the Balkans.

Among other things, it proceeded to a particularly important top-secret compartment.

"Coon."

"... true. I'm turning iron into silver. You did it, old man. This dog man uses silver smelting."

"Oh. This silver smelting technique is no coincidence. I checked many times before I contacted the boy, too. This guy can definitely convert iron to silver. You did it, kid. I didn't think you could do this."

"Right. In fact, I didn't think it would work either. But the success of this experiment is enormous. It's a huge success."

What I saw in the top secret compartment was a white dog man using the magic of turning steel made from a flaming blast furnace in Vulcania into silver.

Dog man.

A demon that once appeared in a mine in the Baltic Knight Territory ruled by my brother Byte, and I brought him back was a dog man with a slightly different kind of white body hair.

The dog man could have used special magic.

The magic of changing the shape of iron is used if it is a regular dog man, but an individual named Tallow, a white dog man, turned iron into silver.

White dogs like Tallow seemed to have a lower position than regular black dogs because they were less pure in unrefined iron ore like they were falling into mines and could only use magic to make silver difficult to use as a weapon, and were abused and living within a bunch of dogs.

But for me, it was a very difficult magic to make silver, so I was bringing him back to Vulcania.

And now the old man called me to do it. The dog man I'm looking at looks just like Tallow, but he was a younger dog than Tallow.

A white dog man separate from Tallow.

This is how a dog man who can use the magic of turning the same iron into silver as Tallow is right in front of me.

That meant Barca could get more silver.

"You did it, Tallow. We've got more company."

"Coon?"

"Well, wouldn't Tallow understand if I said this? But good for you. This guy is just like you. It's exactly the same gene, it's a clone of tallow."

I got a presence called Tallow, and I started raising it confidentially.

but soon I was to use that tallow smelting silver technique.

That and this are all bad for the money.

I paid off an unprecedented amount of high-purity silver made by Tallow and issued a Barca bank voucher to borrow money from people with money.

Barca bank vouchers are similar to government bonds if you ask me.

Barca Bank borrows money and repays it with the interest determined by this one once a certain period has elapsed.

And the show used to guarantee its repayment capacity was sterling silver made by Tallow.

but I would say that this is also a very dangerous act.

If some circumstances prevent you from losing your Tallow or acquiring sterling silver, or if your territorial operations are inclined to do so, you could become instantly non-repayable.

To that end, I was wondering if I could somehow secure the same magic as Tallow.

At first I also wondered if Tallow could turn iron into silver as much as he liked on the human side, if he would name it against humans and Valkyries.

But the experiment was a failure.

That's why we took a different approach.

That was the experiment of making a clone of tallow.

Ask my part-time brother to secure a new living dog man.

I didn't even have to experiment with it if the white dogs got it, but what I found was usually a black pedigree dog man.

So I've been sourcing that black dog man.

The way the clones were made recalled and referenced memories of previous life.

That said, I just don't know the details.

I remembered the ambiguous knowledge I heard somewhere and used it.

First of all, we have unfertilized eggs taken from black dog-man females.

Remove the unfertilized eggs from the mother and place them on a glass chalet that the glassmaker was making.

And the nucleus in the center of the unfertilized egg was removed again with a glass spot.

It was a very detailed task, but I concentrated all my magic on my eyes.

Fill the unfertilized eggs that have been stripped of its nucleus with tissue cultured from Tallow's cells.

The processed unfertilized eggs thus made are returned to the female's mother for delivery.

That way, we thought we might be able to clone based on Tallow's genetic information.

But it wasn't that easy to clone.

Maybe it's because the de amateur does it right without proper knowledge.

but I challenged him many times without giving up.

That's how we succeeded successfully this time.

The secret to success lies in restorative magic.

I tried everything, but this successful clone was using healing magic in the middle of that experiment.

Recovery magic is an outrageous magic capable of regenerating even the hands and feet that have been fearfully lost.

They put such a tremendously effective healing magic on a processed, unfertilized egg, and then returned it to the mother to get pregnant.

Maybe the freakishly processed unfertilized eggs returned to normal growth by healing magic.

but it was born as a white dog who undoubtedly took over Tallow's genes.

It is also as an individual who can use alchemy and silver magic.

"We can go, old man. This method can increase the number of white dogs. That means we can mass produce silver."

"Oh, right. You're right, kid. That means…"

"... Let's make silver coins. The outside of the kingdom of Fontana is getting noisy. Maybe there will be problems with the circulation of currency. Before that happens, we should have a credible currency."

The old man and I stare at each other, nodding.

If Tallow's clones can continue to increase steadily, this top secret section of Barca Castle will literally become a hidden Silver Mountain.

I don't have a hand in not using that silver.

Let's not only use it as collateral for Barca banking vouchers in the future, but also create a new currency.

Thus, in Barca, we were to create a mint that would create a new currency.
