Chapter 118 Magic Equipment Making
Nil also drank the brewed tea and exhaled softly. I knew you were tired.
Incidentally, Rato doesn't like black tea because the smell is too unique and drinks magically made water.
"I've come here all at once... Rest tight, recover completely, and we'll move on tomorrow.
"That's right.
"It's too early for dinner, so let's relax for a while before we eat.
"I see.
Now that I've had a long break, I'm going to start making the magic tools I was expecting.
"Still... there are really a lot of magic stones..."
I looked at the inventory and checked the magic stones, but I was honestly surprised at the amount.
The magic stones stored in the inventory are divided into size and color.
Magic stones obtained from A-ranked monsters are basically classified as small or medium. The higher the monster's rank, the bigger the Magic Stone.
It seems that it is divided into colors because the corresponding attributes are determined. For example, red is fire magic. As I said in light blue, water magic… using magic stones of the same color as the light emitted when the magic team was finished would convert magic more efficiently.
What I'm trying to use this time is a small red magic stone.
The red stone on the pinkie finger is lighter red than ruby. Is it a shade close to the diluted red spinel?
"If you look at it again, the Magic Stone is very beautiful.
I saw Nil take out the magic stone, sit next to him, and peek.
I see. It's basically bloody when I take it out of monsters, so I don't have a very beautiful image.
"Would you like to process it?
I see. Let's give it a try.
There are four procedures for processing Magic Stones.
The first thing to do is decide what kind of magic to use, and carve a magic team into a mold to express that magic. Whatever the mold is, it is preferable to have a stone material that is strong in heat.
At this time, it is necessary to create the shape of the magical formation in which the magic is activated regardless of its form.
For example, a magical team of life water magic that just drains water. This is a simple matter of writing a circle and writing three vertical wavy lines in it, but what happens if I reduce the wave line of this magical formation by one? In conclusion, the magic team disappears without magic.
So, what if we make one wave a little shorter? Then the water will come out, but the amount will decrease slightly. That's why magicians need to be able to write accurately, but even if they collapse slightly, their power is slightly inferior, but magic is activated.
Magic Stone is a container that always uses magic, so if you can change the shape of the magic team, you can create the same state as you always draw the magic team, and you can create magic that is always activated. It seems that magic equipment was made because it was more convenient from time to time and sometimes.
If you make it exactly in the form of a magical formation, can you create magical instruments that are no less powerful than ordinary magic? You might think, but that's impossible. Magic Stones always bring in and out magic, and even if the shape is made accurately with Magic Stones, there is a slight magic sway. This leads to the completion of the magic formation in a slightly different way, resulting in a slightly inferior magic expression. This is a problem that unfortunately cannot be cleared even with Dwarf's technical skills.
The magic team has not been clarified enough to say anything, but it seems that some things are fine even if the shape collapses greatly, and such things can also be used for magic tools with strange shapes. It's an application for magic equipment production.
The second process, the melting of magic stones, is just a matter of heating with fire magic, so it's not that difficult, but magic stones hardly flow as hot as they are. In other words, even if you pour it into a carved mold, it doesn't pour into the mold. When that happens, you need to slowly pour yourself into the mold. Imaginably, candy making is the closest.
But then... it leads to the magic circle, the entrance and exit, and the transformation point that I was talking about earlier... when I build a magic formation with magic stones, I will always find the starting point and the end point, and so on. At this time, the magic stone that has been poured in first will always be cold, so slight defects will occur at the junction point. If this is an important transformation point to convert magic into magic, a point to inhibit magic circulation, or a magic entrance, no matter how beautiful a magic formation is, magic will not be activated.
The important thing for the magic team is that it differs from magic team to magic team, so it even repeats the triand error... Unfortunately, the information was a Dwarf secret, so he didn't tell me that much. I told you to find it yourself.
From what I've just described, I think you can see the third and fourth steps of the process, but the third one forms. And the fourth is cooling.
The fourth cooling is also difficult because if it is not cooled slowly, it will crack.
In addition, once the melted Magic Stone is melted again, it cannot be used as a Magic Stone because the Magic Stone tissue changes and cannot be brought in and out of magic. Therefore, it is necessary to succeed at once. If we don't succeed, it's just garbage.
And, well, like this, The Craftsman's World! It's very difficult.
Incidentally, the power and size of magic does not depend on the size of the magic team, so no matter how small a magic team is made with magic stones, it will succeed if it can be made well.
The wind mask magic tool that Nil and I used on our ears also seems to have a rice grain-sized magic formation embedded in it... I can't see its contents because it is completely enclosed inside.
To add from the story of the wind mask, this is the magic tool that is made to see magic stones. It seems to be because of pressure to understand. The pressure-sensitive mechanism is meant to be usable when it hits the tongue, and there is a magic team that can exhale magic with two shocks... I think it's an application of trap-shaped magic... but he didn't tell me either.
You may feel like you didn't tell me a lot, but it was decided by the dwarf as a whole that you shouldn't have told me that. I mean, I decided it was dangerous.
I couldn't stop looking into it, and even if I did, it wouldn't be a problem if I didn't.
Even ordinary magic can't be used as magic tools, but you can't use such advanced techniques. First of all, whatever it is, let's try to make something that works as a magic instrument.
When you become a magical team that can be made from the tip of your pinky finger, it becomes quite small. Considering the magic flow and the thickness of the magic team line, the size of the magic team is limited to about 5cm. It will be quite a fine task, but it is still easier because the magic team itself is not that complicated. Besides, I don't hate these things in the first place, and it's fun to do them.
"What kind of magic do you use?
"I'm trying to build on the magic of life fire and heat.
"Heat is magic, isn't it?
"To be precise, it's magic that creates warm air.
It is difficult to activate magic equipment under certain conditions, so I try to make it from objects that keep activating magic. Its first item is Hocairo. It's not cold, but it might help someday, and I want to make it from something that's not dangerous at first.
"Can Nil heat this magic stone with fire magic?
"Ok!
The magic stones that remain removed from the monster melt easily. It melts when it is sufficiently hot with some firepower magic. Once it solidifies afterwards, it becomes stronger against heat and shock.
I said it melts, but it does not melt with ordinary fire, it only melts with fire magic, and the furnace used by the dwarf is basically magic equipment. Every time I melt it, I'm tired of using my magic to melt it, and people with less magic can't do it.
Recently, Nil's magic has also risen, and even after this, as long as it melts the Magic Stone, it will be fine.
"This is it... okay.
"We're ready, too.
"Oh, thank you. Thank you."
It's not that hard to carve a magical formation. By the time the magic stone melted, the mold was complete.
When Nil saw the magic stone melted in the small metal container with the handle, the crystal collapsed and it became a melted candy.
"Was that okay?
It looks worrying, but it's perfect.
"Perfect. Thank you."
Yes!
Nil showed me a smile full of faces. I'm glad to be of service. If I could see the tail, I'd be shaking it.
"Well... here's the problem..."
Heat the mold to a certain extent to avoid rapid cooling.
Afterwards, wear leather gloves, then grasp the handle of the container containing the molten magic stone and slowly pour it into the shape of a mold.
I've been doing it a few times, so I've got the trick.
"The important thing is not to rush... slowly... slowly.
As she spoke to herself, a red, sticky melted magic stone was poured into the depression of the mold.
The magic team is small and simple. The pouring is done in a few minutes.
I've already failed so many times, and it's time to succeed...
"... hmm... no.
I carefully removed the chilled magic stone from the mold, but I didn't say yes.
"I don't know what to do..."
"There's something your husband doesn't understand..."
What does Nil think of me...?
"Let's try it again... next time we'll start here..."
Then I failed twice, and it was the third time.
Just a little change in the pouring order to the mold, and the pouring is over...
"Alright. If this solidifies... hmm?
If you look closely, it looks like the melted magic stone is shining slightly.
"Isn't it glowing?!
"Ah! It's glowing!
Can you do it?!
"I'm glad to hear that!
Wait excitedly and the Magic Stone will cool and harden. It still shines a little.
"Oh... oh?... oh!!
It's warm when you clasp your hands on a cold, hardened magic stone.
It seems to have succeeded.
"It's warm!
Just to check it out with appraisal magic...
[Magic Stone Formation]... Magic Formation made of Magic Stones. Heat Magic is active.
You call a magical formation made of magic stones the Magic Stone Faction... and it also contains a description of the magic that is active, and there is no doubt about it. Success!
"Wow, am I okay too?!
Nil also makes her eyes sparkle and asks. When Nil nodded with his hands back, Nil also clasped his hands.
"Wow! It's warm! Excellent, Master!
It wasn't me who was amazing, it was Magic Stone... but I had a hard time, and I'm honestly happy.
Really!
It seems that Rat could feel the warmth when he stroked his nose too.
"There's finally one... and the heat..."
Would it be more efficient to sell magic stones for money and buy magic tools...? No, magic equipment is expensive, and when I sell some magic stones, it's not a price I can buy. Besides, things that are more effective and useful are higher. It would be much cheaper to make it while trying it yourself.
And with Japanese knowledge, you might be able to make magic tools that Dwarves don't make.
"The effects are shocky, but I'm really happy with what I started.
Chew success while looking at the magic stone processed into a magical formation that was removed from the mold.
The dwarfs will repeat the TriandError from here on out to find the biggest points to trigger their magic tools more efficiently. It takes so much effort to consume so many magic stones in a magical team like life... that's why magic equipment is so expensive.
"Okay, I don't know what to do with this..."
When the Magic Stone cools and solidifies, it becomes hot and hard, but a collection of lines like candy. If you attach it to something that bends strangely, it will be bumpy.
"It's usually embedded in something, right?
Most magical formations made of magic stones are put in molten metal and hardened. Don't break it, and don't steal the technology.
I see. That would be the best.
Mimic to the right. The dwarf thought this was the best shape, and if no mistakes were made, it would be best to put it in the metal and consolidate it.
"There's a lot of metal..."
In this world, there are metal armor and accessories, so I think it is immediately understood that metal processing is being carried out, but even if only the metal is being processed, there are more metals than in the original world.
Iron, gold, silver, copper, not processed, but nickel and aluminum in the original world.
Others are the only metals in the world, such as mythrills and Orihalcons.
It is one of the two most famous metals in the world, but unfortunately in this world both metals are super rare and super expensive. Things made of it are not easily available.
Rumor has it that an SS ranked adventurer had a mythrilling sword, but only a handful of super lucky people could get it.
Incidentally, mythrills are less valuable compared to Orihalcon. The performance is light, hard, and durable compared to other metals. However, like other weapons, it is damaged and irreparable. In other words, the area of consumables is not de-aggregated.
In contrast, Orihalcon is not lightweight, but hard and extremely durable. It has a durability value that cannot be broken even if I keep using it for a lifetime.
This is a eyebrow saliva, but if it becomes a metal with a higher rarity than that, maybe there is something that doesn't have a durability...
Anyone in this world, which was called super-real RPG, would want such a dream weapon or armor. Because... it's a one-size-fits-all course. Therefore, the Watanabe (players) lurked in the dungeon.
But I don't think we've found any weapons or defensive equipment of that kind yet... At least I don't know.
The highest difficulty dungeon clearance should not have been experienced by most players, so maybe you'll get it in some of the highest difficulty dungeons… Now, getting into the highest difficulty dungeons is a very courageous action.
The story has been diverted, but there are such a wide variety of metals, which metals to use will vary depending on the application.
When the inventory is opened, metals and ores stored as materials are intruded.
Why are you doing this? You might think, but this is simply my habit.
Ore and metal are available in many places.
It's monster material, it's in the right cave, it's a dungeon reward... oh, my God.
I may have been different from others, but I have a habit of collecting these ore and metal resources for a long time... even though I don't use them.
As a result, it even accumulated and became a huge amount.
I'm sure it's the MINK OFF. Definitely. No, thanks now, it's because of you, not because of you.
Rabbits, horns, metal. There are many types and quantities.
Mythrills and Orihalcones are also small in quantity, but they are always in the inventory with ingots. It must have been a reward for the High Difficulty Dungeon...
"It would be a waste to use mythrills and oliharcons..."
"Does it contain Mithrill or Orihalcon?!
If you look at Nil's eyeballs in surprise, you'll see how rare they are.
"Just in case... than that.
"Is that what you're saying?! Is that how you treat Oliharkon?!
Master... really Master... "
Are you stunned or disappointed... you look complicated.
It is the same as it is not inside because it is inside but it is not used. If you say so, I'll stop breathing.
"Yes, leave it. It's better to decide what to use first, then the metal.
If you miss the story, you missed the story, right? Nil tells me with her eyes that she laughs bitterly...
"... okay. Let's do that.
You... convinced me...? That's what I'll do. Mm-hmm.
Looking gently at the rat, you're not interested in talking about metal, or you're stretching your chin over your arm and meditating your eyes.
"What if I use... gloves or socks?
"I see... I think gloves are good.
Due to the size and calorific value, it was decided immediately to use gloves.
"In that case, light metals would be better.
"I see... I think it would be better to resist shock later.
"Because it's my hand... I think it's better to be strong against fire and water when it comes to fights... if I put it on, the back part of my hand would be good.
Think while looking at the metals in the inventory.
First of all, most things can be understood by expert magic if the metal is commonly available. Some rare metals. Sometimes it only says, but let's check the area little by little.
This time, let's use it from something with solid information with expert magic.
"This is it.
I took out metal ingots that are unique to the world and commonly used.
[Lytium... common metals. It is characterized by its light weight and its durability. It is also resistant to rust. The melting point is 800 degrees.
Looking at the description, is it close to the alloy of aluminum and copper, Duralumin?
Because these metals are single units, the technology of alloying may not be well developed.
It looks silver metallic. Anyway, it only looks like metal.
"Shall I melt some of this, put some magic stone formations in a thin plate and attach it to the back of the glove?
"Ok!
Nil and I will first make a form so that when we attach it to the back of our hands, it becomes slightly plate-like so that there is no discomfort.
