Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

The next morning, as I waited in the square in the center of the city designated as Toya, Toya arrived some time later.

"Morning. Did I make you wait?

"No, not so much. Toya, are you guys going to start working roughly this time?

"The job itself is. I'm off today because of all the circumstances."

"... what about the job itself?

"Of course, it was long before you woke up, huh? Wake up in the morning for about an hour or two to train, have breakfast and work. Return to the city before evening and train until dinner. Feels like I'm going to bed after dinner."

"Uh, is that all the same to you?

"That's more like it. Nao and Hulka train magic even after dinner, but I can't use magic, so I don't do much after dinner. It'll be annoying to train in the inn yard when it gets dark."

I woke up in the morning for breakfast, and I came right here.

"Toya, it's late to come," I'm sorry I thought about that for a second.

I was more serious than I was.

"Let's go then. Over here."

"Oh, yes."

Toya, you brought me here to an arms store just down the main road from the main street.

It was a muscular middle-aged man who welcomed me.

"Whoa, Toya, is that the guy you want to introduce?

"Good Morning"

"Morning, Mr. Gantz. Yes, he's serious, thank you very much."

"That depends on the outcome. Hey, Tommy, you got it?

"Yes, thank you"

"I'm human, as you can see, but no problem?

"? Yes, if you can be a disciple, not at all"

After all, is there an inter-racial problem or something?

In my case, I've never met Dwarf in the first place, so it was a problem before that.

"Hmm, well. Well, good luck with that. I'll think about it depending on the outcome."

"Thank you!

"I'm telling Toya the details. Well, try it."

"Yes!"

"Then Tommy, let's go. I'll borrow it, Mr. Gantz."

"Whoa, if you do anything bad, I'll charge you with a nuisance fee! For Hulka."

"Trust me, Mr. Gantz. If you do that, you'll be shapeless."

"Ha ha, if you use it properly, it's no problem. You're not bothering a woman!

"It's not my girl!

Hearing such a cheap statement, Toya took me to the back of the store, where there existed a blacksmith like I imagined.

"I may know how to use it somehow, but I'll explain it to you for once, okay? If you break it and Hulka turns the bill around, you'll find it stylish."

"Yes!

I'm already in debt.

Toya, listen seriously so I don't miss listening to you.

"- That's the way it is. It's not that hard, is it?

"Right. You don't make iron here in itself?

"Sounds like you're buying in iron. Well, if you take iron out of iron ore, it would be more efficient to make it massive. Normally, you'd do it near the iron ore region."

"No, what do you think? Even if there was a blast furnace in this world, wouldn't it be necessary to carry coal to the region in the end?

"Coal costs transportation, but if it's magic, how about it? If you have magic props and you need less fuel, wouldn't it be more efficient to iron them in your region?

"Do you have one? Such magic props."

"I don't."

"Uh-huh!?... Well, either way, I definitely feel that it would be better to iron it in either fuel or iron ore regions"

Fuel or iron ore, I don't know which one to use a lot, so I'm not sure about that.

If it's a primitive mass iron furnace, maybe an individual blacksmith can do it, but it's not something you'd do all over the city.

"Well, the first thing you make is a portable shovel"

"Mobile? Isn't that the one you're selling to the home center?

"No, no, let's take the stage, shall we? I would have preferred a folding formula like the one used by the militia..."

"No, no, no, that, on the contrary, is more difficult at warp level!?"

"Oh, you know Tommy, too?

"Yes, well, for once? It's a boy, right?

The militia uses a collapsible shovel, commonly known as a circular spoon (EMPI). Secure with screws after stretching.

It can be fixed at 90 degrees and used in shapes such as "Kuwa", and the folding mechanism and the difficulty of screwing are very high to make it.

"Then what about the old Japanese army shovel?

"Um, was it the tip of the shovel and the stick?

"Ooh, that. Make it."

The old Japanese army is a fairly simple shovel, a combination of patterned scoop tips and wooden patterns, to put it simply. Plug in and use when using. There's nothing special about it.

"Structurally simple, and small in size, it's perfect for practice, isn't it?

"Right."

"All right, let's do it!

That's what I'm gonna say and start setting the furnace on fire, Mr. Toya.

"Toya, are you going to make one too?

"That's right. Even I have [blacksmith] skills, and I struggled to negotiate. If we don't do it, it's a loss, right?

"I see. Right"

I also help to light the fire, heat the iron plate and beat it.

I don't know if I owe it to my skills, but I can mold it into a relatively smooth shape.

Toya, you seem to be having a bit of a hard time, so I guess this is a level difference around here.

"Toya, do you have a stick to use for the pattern?

"Oh, I'm ready for that. Fit this."

That's what they gave me, a sturdy stick about 60 cm and about 3 cm in diameter.

Measure its size and refine it so that it can be plugged in.

"By and large, was it like this?

I finished it first in about an hour, so I'll try to gently grind the tip and insert the stick.

It just shoveled in appearance......

"Mr. Toya, I was able to."

"Oh, have you done it yet? Exactly level three to be talented? It was, wasn't it?

"Yeah."

"I can get out of there door to the backyard. Why don't you give it a try?

"Okay."

When I went out into the backyard with a raised shovel, it was a nice place with crap on it.

Conveniently or whatever, the ground is pretty stiff.

"Yo!"

Stick and step into the ground.

"Hmm? Uh-huh."

Stabbing is stabbing, but I kind of don't rely on the feeling of stepping in.

With a little more effort, I don't know what to...

If you knock down the pattern a lot more, even the unpleasant sound of a piki. If you look at it, you can see that it contains cracks.

"This is a failure..."

When I dropped my shoulder and went back inside, Toya called out.

"How'd it go?

"Failure. Like this. Was the iron a little thin?

When I say that and give you a failing piece, look at it, Toya, you nod Hmm.

"Isn't the problem with the thickness, the shape and the way you work out? See, compared to mine, here in the center part. You're only putting out the part where you plug in the pattern, right? By stretching it in a clean way a little further ahead, it will have a beam-like structure and increase its strength?

"Oh, I see..."

Maybe a little different, but it's like being corrugated like cardboard is stronger.

"And then there's the shape of this coarse part. Got a little more ideas here too...... should I try to be more flexible than hardy to say it's cracked?

"Toya, I can convince you of a lot of things... I have a higher skill level, right?

Understandable, but subtly unconvincing. Levels one and three, and I have the qualities.

"This is different from your skill level. If, for example, iron with 80% rigidity and 20% rigidity is needed, I think Tommy can work it out accurately. By contrast, I could go for it and get 15% of 85%. But if Tommy didn't know that, it wouldn't mean anything, would it?

"... well, even if you can work out exactly to the shape that comes to mind, doesn't it make sense if the shape that comes to mind doesn't"

"In that respect, you're right about my memory. In my case, I have a hard time making it the way I want it to be."

Having said that, you have finished shaping, Toya, politely grinding the tip of the shovel.

I'm grinding it to the point that it's going to cut off normally. Shovel is something that needs to be sharpened so much?

"Maybe if it's just technology, you'll soon outrun Mr. Gantz. But isn't it going to take some time to actually learn what it takes to work with a blacksmith? Don't be weird, Tengu, okay? I'll come and break my nose then. Because I'm clumsy, I might be able to shatter my jaw bones instead of my nose."

Is it physics, not metaphors!?

"Wow, I know. My motto is' modesty '. I'll start this today!

"Yeah, that would be good. If it's our women, they'll come and fold the spirit."

Speaking of which, you not only joined Mr. Haruka, but also Mr. Purple Vine and Mr. Komiya.

Even though Mr. Hulka alone is overkill...... yeah, let's never forget it.

"Yikes! I feel a little distorted, do you want to make it acceptable? Give it a try."

That's what I'm saying. I'm leaving for the backyard. I'm following you, Toya.

Toya sticks to the ground just like I do, steps all the way in, and digs up the dirt with the principle of "Tetsuko". And Toya, you lift the shovel and confirm. Seems like there's nothing wrong with what I saw...

Toya, nodding as you were convinced too, puts the shovel on the ground upside down and starts stomping on it with cancer.

"Ah!? What are you doing?

"No, it wouldn't taste good if it was distorted about this, would it? Hammer... is that just it? May I?"

Toya, when you bring more than a hug of stone from the corner of the garden, you drop it on the shovel without hesitation.

The stone rolls with the sound of cancer. The shovel... does it look okay?

"... yeah, are you okay for now? Tommy, you had [muscle boost], didn't you? Try twisting this."

"If I haven't had a problem with it before, I don't think I can... Hmm"

I'll take the diagonal and twist it as much as I want, but there's no indication, no distortion.

He said, "I think I'm okay."

"I'm a little concerned about the marks on the hammer, but can it be a good first piece?"

"No, I think it would be awesome to be successful in the first piece..."

"You don't. I just copied it. I think it would be great if we got to this shape at first glance, but we have an example, we know why the structure is, and we're just going to imitate it, right?

This is where Skill Level 3 fails to imitate.

Is my memory poor, Toya? Is your memory good?

"About the same thickness of iron? No, is it just a little thick? Can I use this as a reference?

"Whoa, if you make it in the same way, Tommy can make something better."

Toya, I got your permission, so I'll honestly try to imitate the shape and make it.

Didn't it take you half an hour this time? If you put a lot of effort into it, it's completely different from the first thing you made, and it's not dangerous at all.

Even though the thickness of the iron has changed only slightly, the shape and baking method make a difference so far.

When I tried to make the same thing again, I could make almost the same thing in a shorter amount of time.

"I knew there was a skill gap around there."

"I don't have a problem doing the same thing once I make it, but at first, I don't know what shape it should be, so even if I have a high skill level, I have to study there."

"Isn't that right? My guys got magic and alchemy skills too, but they bought books and they study them every day, right?

"I have to study hard too."

"The difficulty is that books are expensive, right? There's no library."

"Oh, is it expensive after all?

"For yen conversion, you have to be prepared for over 100,000 yen. In one book."

"Wow! Tough!

I can't even buy one book after spending all my money on it.

If you think about it, it would have been precious to have an environment where you could study with little money on your mind.

I didn't realize it when I was in that environment.

"That's why you're in a brother-in-law relationship. Next time, let's make the normal size of life."

"Yes!"
