The Novice Alchemist’s Store

The next morning I finished supplying the culture container with magic, and I worked on building a tent.

Along the line I drew, Mr. Iris and the others cut the leather.

Once you have applied plenty of kawak to the leather to be pasted, both paste bills, beat each other with a wooden hammer and snug them tight.

And if you wait a few minutes, the two leathers will be completely integrated, and their strength will be more than one piece of leather.

Easier than stitching, more intense, no worries about flooding.

If you only meditate on the cost, Kawak is very good.

... Well, meditating on your eyes is hard to use because it's still dazzling.

That's why if the product price is not as high as the smelter (artifact), it will be very unusable.

But there is no doubt that convenience, the tent itself will be completed within that day, and floating tenting will be finished the day after that.

Continuing to provide magic to the culture vessel while also producing resonant stones, smelters (potions), etc. that Iris and the others were allowed to hold for safety, the day before the departure, the alchemy organism (Homunculus) was finally completed.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Did you?

"Yes, I grew a little slower than I expected, and I did, but I made it"

Four whole days until it's fully grown.

More than a day longer than originally expected.

Is it because I'm not used to it, the prediction was sweet, or is it a matter of the material I used?

I'm not sure what caused it, just the first time I made it.

But, Ma, we're done, right?

"This is the alchemy that I made this time."

To wipe away the culture, if the alchemy (homunculus) wrapped in the towel was placed on the table as it was, it moved with the mozo and pushed the towel away to make a good face.

"Oh, that's cute!"

"Ko, this is... cuter than I expected!?"

At last, out of a good towel, sitting a little bit on the table, the little bear.

Hair is light brown and looks golden with the addition or subtraction of light.

Small enough to be on one hand, very mockingbird.

Seeing that, Lorea cheered and moved her hand wacky, and Mr. Iris also stepped out on the table and stared.

"I don't expect this either. Is this what alchemy is all about?

"No, I'll be quite free depending on how I do it, but this time it was relatively easy to make, I made it look like this"

The reason for this figure is that about half of it is a matter of ease of making, and the other half is my hobby.

Alchemy creatures (homunculus) can be guided by the image of the surgeon when instilling magic.

But the difficulty depends on the material used, and it can't be done in any way.

In this case, it is easy if you are using salamander and Hell Flame Grizzly material, so close to a bear or lizard, for example, it is quite difficult to make it into a fish shape.

Conversely, a variety of alchemy organisms (homunculus) can be made by adjusting the materials used.

However, not for the person type.

At least in this country, the production of human-type alchemy (homunculus) is prohibited.

Whether it's technically impossible... at a time when it's banned, you know what I mean?

"I mean, if you're going to make it, was it a lizard or a bear"

"Yes. If so, it's a bear, isn't it?

Some people might say lizards are cute, but as far as I'm concerned, I still think mockingbirds are cuter.

And my taste for that seems to have been accepted by everyone, and they all snort deeply.

"Um, naturally. What size is this? Even for a bear, it's a lot smaller."

"It's not a combat alchemy (homunculus), and if it's too big, it can get in the way. We can't dispose of this because it's over."

"No, you can't, no!

"Of course you won't, will you? Besides, if you look like this, even if you put it next to Lorea, who does the store number, it's not uncomfortable, is it?

I smiled and held up the alchemy creature (homunculus) to calm Lorea, who raised her voice in haste, and offered it to Lorea.

"Sa, can I touch it?!?"

"Yeah, I don't mind."

Pong over the hand of Lorea offered, the alchemy creature (Homunculus) moves with Mozomozo and becomes belly hungry.

"Wow, it's warm, it's Moffmoff ~"

"Me! Me next! Lorea, take my place!

"Hey, wait a minute! I want to be more indulgent too!

As Lorea strokes her dreaded back and makes her face wander, Mr. Iris also stretches her fingers to tickle around her neck and loosens her mouth.

By contrast, if you are an alchemy creature (homunculus), you don't really care about the movement of those two hands, but only narrow your eyes while saying "gush" to make you feel good.

"Mr. Store Manager, is that okay? For once, you're a bear, aren't you? The manager's not moving it, he's independent, right?

"It's okay if we touch it. Even bears are alchemy creatures (homunculus), and they're like our children."

I'm the only one with a magical connection, but it also has three factors in it, so at least there shouldn't be anything like being attacked.

Most of all, it feels like a pet I'm very used to, so it doesn't mean they won't fight back at all.

"Then I'm a little relieved... what about the others?

"Is that sometimes? My personality is under our influence, so I don't think I'm going to bite all of a sudden. - Unless some of us are also secretly aggressive."

"Aggressive…"

Mr. Kate shifts her gaze with me, Lorea - frowning a little worried.

"Just for a second, I'm worried"

I can't dare ask whose personality I'm worried about.

For once, even though I'm a noble lady, I'm probably worried that my gaze stopped at someone who might be a gatherer.

"As it were, well, it's okay. I'm not walking around on my own."

Even if you look like an animal, the power source is my magic, and I'm not eating, and I'm not going out of the house unless you order me to.

"Mr. Sarasa! What's your name? What does your name say?

"Huh? Name? I didn't put anything on it."

"Let's put it on! How pathetic of you to have no name!

"Right! You have to give me a pretty name!

Lorea, who insists strongly below, and Iris, who nods over and over again and agrees with it.

... What shall I do? Better than I imagined, you two are good eaters.

I know I'm cute too, but it feels more like a stuffed animal.

Alchemy (homunculus) is a practical product, so too much attachment makes it difficult.

If your original role is to scout dangerous places, or even stand up and protect Lorea and the others, but your attachment makes you hesitant to act on them, then you fall down.

It comes down to what I made it for.

Or so, I don't have the nerve to take it away from you two who are happy and adorable.

If she turned her gaze to Kate as I asked for help, Kate nodded deeply all the time, "Hey, both of you," she said.

Good.

If you're Kate, I'm sure you two can calm down in peace...

"It's my turn next, isn't it?

That -!?

"Become!? Kate, that's sloppy! I haven't even held him yet, either!

"I can't believe I haven't even touched you yet. - Wow, soft hairy. It's nothing like Hell Flame Grizzly."

Kate caresses her body with both hands after listening to Iris protest and taking the alchemy creature (Homncrus) out of Lorea's hands.

"Kate, take my place!

"It's a little better, isn't it? This touch is a habit. Come here."

"Ha, ha!

If Kate flips the alchemy creature (homunculus) upside down and tickles her stomach, she moves her hands and feet flat and narrows her eyes to make her feel good.

Kate, who saw it, also moves the corner of her mouth pimply, as if she could manage to get a loose look.

Yeah, no. It's unlikely I can count on Mr. Kate.

Or I wish I could honestly break my expression.

It's not like you care about decency, is it? Us.
