The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)
First Snow Morning
When I woke up in the morning with chills and went out, it was the silver world.
"Well, it's not like you're saying something about writing a masterpiece."
This is my home, a dilapidated mine a few hours north of the city of Gimr.
Naturally, there is no one but me.
So no one can get rid of the snow that has piled up outside.
The snow today seems to have been seen, 5 to 6 cm.
It's not a snowy area like Hokkaido, which I used to visit on business trips, but it's good enough to get in the way of walking.
"If you don't get it ready soon, you'll be late for your appointment... so why don't you try using it?"
Though it is not due to this situation, I think that I may be able to use what I have prepared and prepare to go out in a hurry.
And 30 minutes later...
"And for now, success....."
I fell in the woods near the north gate of the city of Gimle.
"It's limited to places I've been, but it's easy to use" long-range transfer. ”We need to be careful immediately after the metastasis, but even if it snows, there's no problem with the metastasis itself. "
What I did this time was one of the ways to use stone slime and weed slime, which I have been thinking about for a long time.And in a sense, the combination of slime and magic, like the sandslip and sand magic of the other day.
... but all I did was put a stone slime and a proper bait stone in the woods...
First of all, there is the beginner “Teleport" and the intermediate “Warp" for the transfer of space magic. I can't use them yet, but there is the advanced “Gate” magic.
But Sebastian, a master of space magic, said before.These are essentially the same magic.However, there is only a difference between the distance transferred and the amount of magic consumed, and it can be used in the same way.
And under Sebastian's guidance, I could only use a teleport. I learned intermediate warp.
Of course, if that happens, can't you even master the advanced gate?That means...
However, it was more difficult than imagined to transfer to places that were invisible to the naked eye.
The range I was able to transfer was roughly just a few meters to dozens of meters over the teleport.Even at warp, the limit of vision is critical.I may have unconsciously relied too much on my vision, but I couldn't move to an invisible location.
I felt I could do as much magic as I wanted in the telereport, but I decided it was dangerous and stopped.If it's like an old game, you'll be in trouble and you'll die in the worst way.
So I devised a method to transfer to the pre-positioned slide.
Subordination can communicate even if it is a certain distance due to the effect of the contract, and even if communication is impossible, the direction and distance can be felt, so I thought that I should rely on that feeling to transfer.
Imaginably, is the ability to move instantaneously from the game map to a specific location closer?
Anyway, I was able to move close to the city at once, and my commute time was greatly reduced.
Further applications can be considered in the future, and it has been meaningful since the morning.
I went to the north gate with joy.
I had time because of the transfer, so I changed my schedule a little and stopped by the laundry.
Then, as I saw people everywhere starting to snow on the road, all the employees were in front of the shop, even though our shop was still open a long time ago.
"Good morning!
As you approach, you will receive a reply.
Further, shortly thereafter,
"Store manager, why are you so early this morning?"
Calm asks me to surprise me, so I'll answer why I'm here.
"It snowed for the first time, so I came to see how it was.I had discussed the response in advance when it snowed, so I thought it would be okay to leave it to you, but there was time until the original plan, so I thought I'd take a look around the relevant places. "
"No, that's not it.I'd like to know when I left the North Mine in this snow and if I'm here right now. "
Oh, I see. You think I left home very early in the morning if I didn't tell you about the long distance shift?
Understand Calm's questions and explain them again.
"Oh, good.I thought you couldn't do it again. "
"No, I think advanced magic at the store manager's age is quite a rude category....."
I feel nostalgic about coming to our house and only Yudam, who is still in the shallow of day, looks confused.Employees seem to be used to my behavior and don't worry about trivial things anymore.
"Ohayo!
"Hey, Lyoma!
Oops, it's the neighbor's family.
"Good morning! Are you snowflakes too?"
"If you don't do it often, it's dangerous, and the customers will get in worse!
"My children seem to be very happy, but it's hard every year...."
Sieg, a butcher, and Pollen, a florist, stopped and looked behind as they spoke.Rick and Leni, their sons and daughters, were there touching the fresh snow.
"Ugh! Hah, it's cold...."
"Ah, Mr. Sieg.Then the magic is just right... 'Sunlight'!
When the image is consolidated and the magic name is spoken, a ball of light appears above the head for a few meters.
And the body that is illuminated by light feels instantly tingling and warming.
I haven't used it in a long time, but it worked.
"Oh, it's a little warm."
"It's magic that combines light and fire attributes to imagine sunlight."
There are some “lights” that can only be used with light if you just produce a light source, but they don't have heat like LEDs.A magic born before questioning it and trying to recreate the warmth of the sun.
Even with this alone, it gets warmer to the extent of sunshine on good weather days, but when combined with windproof and insulated boundary magic, the heat of light can warm up the wide space there, so in the winter forest it was a valuable replacement for heating.
"I'll set up a few places for a break, so please keep it warm.It's not good to cool your body. "
There is the magic of a “halogen heater” that is actually more suitable for heating, but if this is bad, it can cause burns and fires, so stop it.
Unless it was a cold day in the woods, sunlight or fire would have been enough, and it would have been fine.
And then, yes.There was a handmade cairo made to protect against the cold, so let's distribute it.
"It's a prototype, so please don't hesitate.It would be helpful if you could tell me how it feels to use it later. "
"Thank you ~"
"My hands and feet are cold, right?It seems convenient for warming up. "
As far as the reaction is concerned, handmade Cairo seems to be well received by the female team.
Fiona, Jane, Maria's three daughters and cook Sherma.
Leelin is also gathered to talk about where it is best to keep it.
On the other hand, the male team seemed less committed, and immediately took it and put it in their pockets.
"We've prototyped a lot of other things that could be used, and there are still lots of slime research results and applications to consider.So please call me whenever you are in trouble.It would be helpful if you could do experiments and trials with me. "
If some snow is sprinkled with salt, it will prevent it from accumulating to some extent.But for the future, should we make antifreeze and snow melting agents such as calcium chloride by smelting?We need to be careful about salt damage, but is everything all right in the city?But I don't know how much drainage affects the surrounding environment.
Is alcohol safer then?It was used as a main ingredient such as antifreeze such as car windshield, and it should melt well with frost and thin ice.The ingredients can be drunkslime vomiting alcohol or failed alcohol.
Simply dissolve it in hot water or water if you don't need to worry about re-freezing.If you combine fire and water magic, you can make hot water or blow hot steam with the wind.
No, if you use magic, would it be more efficient to use ice attributes to reduce the freezing point of snow and melt it?Conversely, is there a hand to make snow into ice chunks, peel it off the ground, and remove it as a chunk?
In some places, snow melting equipment using well water and river water was installed in Hokkaido.We can't use them as a reference to build tools or modify the city's drains to be able to use them like that... but maybe we can use them temporarily with the help of the slime.There are also slimes that evolved the other day.
Recently, we have understood the conditions for the evolution of the slime, or the tricks for evolving the slime.
Work became more leisurely, and I was able to start keeping goblins and work in parallel on experiments.
Thanks to that, we can do as much as we want, and the research keeps going.
"Store manager... looks fun, but is time okay?Weren't you going to look around somewhere else?
Ha!
Yes, if you're going to look elsewhere, Dolce is right.
I apologize for not being able to help, but if you'll excuse me.
And he said unto them, and said unto them, Let them go.
"Lord."
Mr. Ox, who is in charge of the store, called out.Next door is Mr. Fay.
"I can only wave a sword.But if there's anything you can do, just call me.I am, after all, a slave to the Lord.I know the Lord didn't treat me like that, but I appreciate you waving your sword again. "
"Don't push it, because I think everybody already told me to... make sure the store goes around without the owner.But I really don't want you to be gone.The store owner is not a person who doesn't need it at the store, sir.Call us if anything happens, okay, sir?
The employees nodding behind the two of them....
I originally intended to, but I can leave the laundry to you with peace of mind.
Otherwise,
"Thank you very much. Now, please try the training partner and prototype again."
Having been escorted by all our trusted employees, we are now on our way to our next destination.
By the time I looked around the city, it was a long day.
I'm heading to the Adventurer Alliance.
"Phew...."
I have stopped by with various security companies, garbage disposal plants, construction sites, etc., but I received support and voices from people I knew earlier.
After all, somehow... it must have been unusual for a store run by a child since before.
It seems that I was quite famous among laundry customers, especially housewives.
But since I got back from Fatma territory, I've done a lot of flashy things.
Along with this, Gimle's visibility in the city seems to have jumped.
Recently, people I don't know at all have been able to speak up.
Especially when you say, "I saw you cleaning the drains," don't you get involved with bad adventurers who were thanking you or working with you while you were watching?Are you being bullied?Or you're worried.I always do, but thank you.
But when it comes to bad adventurers, it's good to talk about worries.
And for some reason...
Good morning, sir.
"Let's align!!!
Good morning! Aniki!
"Ah, ahh... I'm not oniisan..."
The relationship with them was strange when I realized it.
This looks like a yakuza to me....
