Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

"Well, I've decided to make a magic bag... can you do that? Hulka."

Toya and Natsuki went out to train together, and it was me and Hulka in this room, and Yuki. Yuki has already copied [alchemy] and [space-time magic] from me and Hulka, but it's not ready for use yet.

"I've found time to read it since I got the book, and I was experimenting with it somewhat, so maybe I can figure it out? As for the magic bags, either way, they seem harder on Nao. Are you okay?"

"No, no, I've been practicing ever since I got here, too, huh? Of course I'm fine......"

No, seriously. It takes a lot of time.

Fire magic was also practiced, but it is space-time magic that has a greater specific gravity.

Both have something in common in terms of controlling magic, but space-time magic is extraordinarily difficult.

Because of that, there is a slightly sad reality that fire magic improves without much practice. It's easy and good, but compared to less responsive space-time magic......

But that's also improved considerably since I got the Book of Magic. I also feel comfortable with the "Extended Space", which can be used at level 3, so I'm probably going to figure it out a little bit more.

"Let's get you ready under me first. Yuki will do it with you."

"Yes, Doctor!

To Hulka, who says so, Bisili and Yuki raise their hands. I am in the mood.

"First of all, the magic team on this page, transcribe this into what you want to make a magic bag. Generally I would use this dedicated ink, but this time I would use this yarn to embroider it"

"Embroidery? Can't it be ink? It's common, isn't it?

"Er, yeah. First of all, I don't know why you write magic formations with dedicated ink, but this is to pass magic over that line. So, lines written in ink and lines connected by a single thread. Which one of you thinks magic is easier to get through?

"That's yarn, isn't it? Think normally."

"Yes. This was definitely because it was in the book as a result of research. And it works better if the magic is easy to get through. Then there's no reason not to do it."

"Well, right. But it's not common, is it?

"Something with different productivity even when it's more effective. Yuki, how different is the speed of drawing a line with a pen from the speed of embroidering?

"More than ten times different, right? - Well, even if it's slightly more effective, it won't sell for 10 times."

"Especially in the case of magic bags, they sell as soon as you make them, because there's no point in taking the hassle out of them"

I have always heard that magic bags are lacking.

If there's competition, there's a reason to make something a little better than the others, but if it sells, there's no point in losing production efficiency. If you dare to make it, it would be if you needed performance due to cost exterior view, but saying so would not be something you would make 'generally' in order production.

"It's immature in our case, so we want to make it work."

"Hmm, got it. You should just copy this and embroider it. But does it make sense that I do it? Alchemy hasn't been enabled yet."

"I've talked to the Naos about that before, and I think it's not" I can do it because I have skills, "it's" they label me as skills as a result of being able to do it. "Natsuki, for example, you don't have cooking skills, but you can cook, right?

"So is that. I haven't reached level one either, but it's not like I can't do alchemy."

Except for some special skills like [Help] and [Skill Copy], I wonder what most skills are.

Or the skill notation feels pretty appropriate. It's more or less like this - to about extent.

In fact, I don't know how it works, but there is the fact that it is generally unknown to people in this world. Assuming it only affects the classmates, that evil god is going to do it in a way that feels like 'you should be a guide' or something.

"For now, I will write the magic formation with ink for Yuki's sake, so can Yuki have it embroidered?

"Huh... Then why don't you ask Natsuki to help you too? Natsuki doesn't have [sewing] skills, but you can usually embroider them, right?

"... that too, huh?

Yeah, and nod, and turn your gaze on me, Halka.

Yes, yes, I copy.

That's why I brought Natsuki back.

Non Combat Toya continues to train one person. Of course, I'm not a fighter when it comes to embroidery.

"I'm saying there's something I can do to help..."

Natsuki, who cleaned her sweat with 'purification', said so with her hips down on the bed.

"Yeah. Natsuki, you could have embroidered it, right?

"Yeah, to the crowd."

I humble myself that way, but maybe, it's a lie. I don't think Natsuki with a high Yamato level will be satisfied with the crowd (my bias).

Or what level of 'crowded' embroidery is that? Can a normal person embroider?

At least I can't. Wave stitching is exquisite.

"I write the magic team, so I want Natsuki to embroider it. Can you please?"

"I don't mind that, but is it okay if I do it? It's alchemy, right?

"Yeah, maybe.... If I can't, I'll let Natsuki do the work for nothing."

"You don't have to worry about that. Because if it's possible, it makes sense to do it"

That's what I say. Natsuki smiles nicely.

I would have been forced to embroider this troublesome magic formation and said, "I knew it wouldn't work. If they say" heh "or something like that, it would be beautiful.... No, won't Hulka say" hehe "? But Yuki might say.

"We have to decide what to embroider first."

"Hmm? Why don't we just embroider it in each backpack?

"It's not that simple. It's like this when you put your relationship into a ceremony."

Magic Formation Size = Energy

Energy = Difficulty (Magic Control) x Magic

Energy = Range x Effectiveness Level

"Hmm. I mean, you can't make a big bag without big energy, and it's ineffective. It's hard to make when you increase your energy," he said.

"That's the thing. If you don't think about the size of the magic formation first, there's a chance that you won't be able to use it even though you tried so hard to embroider it."

"Bye. How about Hulka embroiders it in the backpack, and I'm a medium hemp bag, and a small nut bag? And if you fail, you just have to leave it until you get to the next level."

"So is that. Wouldn't that be a complete waste?"

Sure. If you fail to add to your backpack, you can use the hemp bag you put inside as a magic bag and use it for now.

"Ah. By the way, what happens if you put a magic bag with the addition of" Time Delayed "Slow Time" and a magic bag with the addition of "Lighter Weight"?

"You can't do that. You interfere, and neither of them will work."

"Oh. It's not that easy."

"Yes, especially since putting it in a magic bag with the addition of" Extended Space "would be disastrous."

"Why? - Oh, yeah, right. No more capacity expansion, so will the bag rupture or mess up what's inside?"

"Expensive magic bags break, too, and it's dangerous"

"We could rebuild it, but normally people who buy it don't get stylish, it"

"It would be tragic if you had raw meat or something in it. Just the flesh scattering."

That's what I'm saying, Yuki laughing.

Was it miserable and scattered? It's a little subtle, isn't it?

"- Well, let's start by writing a magic formation on a bag of nuts."

"Right. Please."

Hulka just takes out bags and pens and ink.

"Hey, react a little? Please."

"I made it through for you because of it. 5 points. Not worthy of evaluation."

"Tough!? Natsuki ~"

"For a hanging word, there's not enough wind flow. The scene is too dirty."

"Terrible!? Nao ~"

"Uh, yeah.... Slightly Uke?

The pitiful look Yuki was pathetic, so I tried to follow him that way, but it seemed like a bad idea.

"Thanks for your concern. But did you want me to do it a little harder to figure it out? I wasn't a jerk."

I don't have a choice. Because I didn't want to.

Natsuki is right, the picture surface that comes to mind is too dirty. We're supposed to be carrying raw meat.

"Yuki, look no further than that. Because I write."

"Yes! - You bought that ink, didn't you? You know what the ingredients are?

"Yeah. It's in the book. Basically, it's like a demon stone crushed object and glue."

"Well, really? Sounds like a Japanese painting."

"Speaking of which, Japanese paint also uses mineral powder and glue. However, there are other machines for this. As you can see, it's in the ink."

Speaking of what that means, if it's simply a liquid mixed with glue and pigment, they have conservation problems.

It was this ink that Hulka bought that solved the problems around it and made it easier to use.

"Looks like it's pretty easy to make if you're going to use it right away. If I had the tools, I wouldn't have had to buy them..."

With that said, Hulka writes down the magic formations.

Even though it's a pretty complicated pattern, I'm going to write it down beautifully with my free hand.

"You can write well, Hulka. It's so complicated."

"Hmm, feels like your hands are moving? Just like weapon skills or something, I guess I'm in some practice writing this kind of magic formation, because it's level one."

When I use a spear, does it feel like nature and body move?

"Okay. Natsuki embroiders this magic formation with this yarn. You'd better connect it in one piece, so that you don't have to inherit it it along the way, use the yarn luxuriously."

"I understand. Did you buy this yarn too?

"Yeah. That said, I just bought some regular yarn and stained the ink."

It was a simple manufacturing method. They don't sell this yarn itself because it's easy to make on top of not common to do embroidery.

Hulka further draws Yuki and his own magic formation and begins embroidering.

There's nothing I can do, so I'll go back and review the magic book. I'd like to practice, but I'll consume magic.

"You just want an embroidered frame"

"Right. But do you have one? I use a small screw or something, so isn't it hard to make it?

"In my case, the cloth is thick, so I don't know if I can pinch it."

Oh, that's the embroidered frame, the round one.

Sure, they're all trying to keep it from embroidering. Hold the cloth with your feet or pull with your hands.

"Do you want me to help?

"Uh, yeah..."

When I say that, Hulka sees Yuki and Natsuki and clouds his words.

"Can you help Hulka? It seems the thickest and hardest to do."

"Right. Mine's still easy to hold."

Copy that.

Hulka, who is embroidering the backpack upside down, certainly seems the hardest to do.

"So will you take this and this and pull it off? Yeah, yeah. Thanks."

When I pulled and held it with both hands, it seemed a lot easier to do with both of Hulka's hands now available. The speed of embroidery is also increasing.

The cloth used for the backpack itself is quite thick, but it doesn't seem to have the precision of a mechanical weave, so it doesn't seem that it needs the strength to stab the needle.

That's how I help Hulka proceed with the embroidery. For the time being.

"Done."

The first one to complete it was Natsuki.

[Sewing] Natsuki without skills, but the magic team itself was the smallest, so I guess it ended early.

"Good day. Let's interrupt this one for a moment and add it to the bag of nuts. It consumes magic."

"Right. That'll give you more time to recover."

It would be better for me to get a break, even if I just don't know how much magic it consumes.

"Rehearsal first. Let's check the steps. First, me and Nao put our hands on the magic formation"

"Ooh."

As Hulka puts her hand on the edge of the magic formation, so do I.

"I put magic through my magic formations and put them on standby. Nao next."

"I keep Time Delay Slow Time just before activation and slowly pour in its magic"

"Let me fix the magic that has been poured in, and when I'm done, let the magic formations transition to an end state"

"Is that it? All right, that's perfect. Only image training!

The Book of Magic is well loaded.

I also practiced keeping magic and manipulating magic.

After that, there is only practice.

- Can you do that?... No, I can.

I have talent. Because I spent points!

"I'll do it then. Take a good look at Yuki."

"Ooh."

"Yeah."

"Bye...... whoa!

Make sure I put my hand down, and Hulka sheds magic on the magic team. Together, I activate magic.

The magic I can get into is the maximum I can control right now, and I'll flush it as carefully as I can into the magic formation.

The book said, 'If control is disturbed here or magic leaks outside, performance is degraded', so focus anyway. Just whether or not it's right for magic to flow smoother than I thought.

When I turn my gaze to Chilari and Hulka, I stare at the magic formation with a serious look, my lips tied together with a gnaw.

- Almost there.

Think of the advice 'Don't let the alchemist get distracted until he completes his work' and politely finish the magic run.

And a few seconds later, I couldn't feel the magic flow that was going through the magic formation, and Hulka exhaled heavily.

"Ha. I'm tired. This is an out-of-the-box. What about Nao?"

"Mine is... not magically a problem. At this size, you hardly need a break. Just don't be mentally tired. Because I use nerves."

Work like threading a needle.

So that you don't have to use your strength to get tired of your eyes, this task is fine with magic, but your spirit is tired.

"Hulka, how is it difficult?

"It's hard to explain because it's a sensory thing, but Nao's magic? Magic? It's pretty hard to control that, isn't it? Is it because [Alchemy] is still Level 1? Yuki could be tough if he had the qualities."

"Maybe I'm too magical? For once, I tried my best to control it as far as I could."

"I don't think that's wrong... but less time will make it easier for you to control it. The difficulty of controlling itself remains unchanged."

If you want to compare the magic formation to a tank that puts water in, the size of the magic formation is the capacity of the tank.

The amount of magic I pour is the amount of water I put in the tank.

However, regardless of the size of the tank, the pour port size is the same.

If I were a faucet, Hulka would have to hold a tank underneath it to keep water from spilling, only more water would be poured, only bigger if the tank was big, and Hulka would have to hold the tank for a long time.

"Hmm? Does that explain that if I flush more water than the tank capacity, it will be wasted?

"Well, technically, you will. I don't know, I can't even close the lid on the tank while it's running water, so I guess the ideal would be to pour just a little more than the tank's capacity"

"Huh... you want me to look at the magic formation and judge the capacity? Me?"

"I guess that's an experience. If it's a magic team right now, maybe a quarter? Isn't that good enough for you?

"Gu Ha! I wasted my mess!?"

"It's your first time, so you can't help it. It's better than not enough."

That's true... Yeah, well, you practice everything.

No matter how talented you are, there's no way you can perfect it the first time. The fact that he didn't fail would be a survivor in itself.

"So this bag has become a magic bag yet?

That's what I say. Natsuki takes the bag, peeks inside, sticks his hand in it, and then puts his neck up.

I don't know because nothing's changed in appearance.

"It might have been easier to understand" Lighter Weight "at first. Let's just put this in."

That's what Hulka generates ice. Two ping-pong sphere-sized ice.

One in the magic bag I just made, the other in a similar bag. Put it on the floor side by side.

"You can compare the passage of time. But how different?

"A high-performance magic bag seems to keep the condition pretty much the same on a year-by-year basis..."

"Amateur...... but it's a beginner made thing, and what do you think?

"But you didn't fail, so for once, as stipulated? Isn't that going to perform?

"Then it should be about one in 10,000..."

"Hmm..."

How much is one in 10,000?

Left alone for a year, the bag is......

"Well, there seems to be no problem with food preservation."

"Right. That's right, hot stuff, you can't have cold stuff."

"But it's less than five minutes to keep you in for a month, right? Isn't that practically all right?

Is it 5 minutes in a month? Then even a year is less than an hour.

Yeah, you're safe with raw stuff. Maybe I can eat sashimi.

"If it's going well, right? If I could even make a watch, I could measure it accurately..."

"It's not in the alchemy dictionary?

"It's on, but it still doesn't seem to work for me. Level 1 dashi"

"I can make magic bags."

"Magic bags are rare because there are no space-time magic users. It seems like an easy category for alchemy."

I see. Is that why you could have made it in Hulka?

"Let's move on with the embroidery more than that. Can I ask Natsuki again? I want to make a lot of practice if I can."

"Yeah, I don't mind."

By the time the sun went down, one backpack embroidered by Hulka, two bags embroidered by Yuki and a total of five magic bags made additionally by Natsuki were completed.

One of them was made by Yuki and I, whose [Alchemy] was activated. I was able to adjust the approximate amount of magic to match the magic team, so Yuki finished it without fail.

"Well," Time Delayed "Slow Time" in three, "Lighten Light Weight" in two... the first thing I made, it hasn't melted ice yet, has it?

"Yes. From what I've seen, it's pretty much the same."

"Lighter Light Weight is easier to understand. Maybe less than a hundredth, this."

Yuki gently lifts the bag with one hand, trying to fill it with something that looks heavy in her hand anyway.

I don't know because I don't have a measuring instrument either, but the feeling I've tried is not so different from Yuki's.

"If it works so far, it would be more useful to have two lighter lighter weights and a slower time."

"Sure, but... two is hard, isn't it?

I snort at Hulka for saying that.

For once, I've tried practicing, but it takes the difficult task of deploying and maintaining two magics at the same time and pouring them evenly into the magic formation. I don't think I'll be able to do it overnight.

"But I made all of this a success... Nao, don't you think you can handle it?

"No, no, he said it's pretty hard. By analogy, I think there's a difference between playing the piano with one hand and playing it with both hands."

"Hmm. I mean, adding" Spatial Extension "Extended Space," an electronic organ that also plays with your feet? I can! Practice and we'll figure out how to get out of here!

It's easy for you to say, dude. I'm practicing, too, right?

"It's that easy..."

Speaking of which, you could have played Yuki, right, electronic organ?

"... eh, seriously?

"Yeah, well, what about some?

Hulka shakes her head, though Yuki says it gently like that, with her little neck hanging.

"Somewhat... you were pretty good"

Come on, I missed the metaphor. If someone who can do it tells you, 'If you practice, you can do it,' you'll have to practice.

Besides, because I have 'talent', 'because I don't have talent' doesn't even make a run for it.

Ha... in a way, you're cynical, aren't you?

"But you can play well, it's that complicated. You know, switching tones on the way, it's going to be a mess."

"Right. I can play the piano too, but the electronic organ..."

"Mm-hmm, well, the tone can be switched automatically, just because you don't play complicated melodies on your feet. It's just confusing at first."

"Really, practice... hmm? Speaking of which, Yuki, you had the qualities of space-time magic, didn't you?

"Ah."

Shit, I laugh at Yuki for putting her hand on my mouth with the look on her face.

"All right, all right, all right. I'll tell you what. Let's practice together."

"Uh, no, no, I'm the alchemist..."

"You have to remember anyway, so stick with me. Because embroiderers work hard with me and nuts."

"Abandoned!?"

"Damn, the difficulty of space-time magic, Yuki knows, but it's good!

"Damn, cowardly!

"I'm on the road."

No, 'cause magic practice is an authentic task that softens your spirit anyway, and when you're practicing one, you feel darker too.

Moreover, space-time magic is only invisible, and its tendency is particularly strong compared to the practice of fire magic. Because if you look at it from the edge, you can only see it roaring.

Still on the road - no, no, if we had someone to incise together, we'd feel a little less like that, wouldn't we?

But in the end, it would take a while for me to be able to make two magic bags.
