Episode 7 Request Accomplishment, Spellbooks, and Magic Tools
After I finished exterminating the goblins, I returned to the capital and lined up at the adventurer’s guild counter.
“Yes, the next person. Tch.”
The receptionist who registered us as adventurers.
But there will be no tongue-lashing.
“I’ve come to subjugate goblins as requested.”
“There are 23 ears in total. Including the request money, 1 silver coin and 23 copper coins.”
“thank you”
“By the way, what happened to the goblin magic stone?”
“I got it as a souvenir.”
“I don’t think a group of pickpockets started buying and selling magic stones.”
“No.”
“Oh, that’s strange. I’ve never seen a magic stone stolen by a pickpocket come out.”
“We have nothing to do with pickpocket groups. Here’s the proof.”
I opened the bag and showed it inside.
Needless to say, there is a magic stone inside.
“But there’s a possibility that I might end up selling it to a group of pickpockets from now on.”
“It’s okay if you don’t believe me.”
I told him to let me go.
“I believe you. It’s more profitable to sell to a guild than to a black marketer.”
The receptionist who turns around and says the opposite.
This receptionist has a bad personality.
“There are black merchants out there.”
“You’re the type of person who buys anything, even stolen goods. Myra knows the name of the black marketer, right? If you confess, I can remove you from the blacklist.”
“I’ll refrain”
“Yes.
If I talk now, the pickpocket group will probably send a hitman.
I don’t know what will happen next, but I won’t let information about the pickpocket group leak out at this stage.
Myra must think so too.
“Okay, we’ll go.”
“I’m waiting for you to tell me the information.”
The next destination was a stationery shop.
When I entered the stationery store, the smell of ink filled the air.
Look at the paper first.
Brown paper that looks like straw paper sells for 10 copper coins per sheet.
That’s expensive.
“The monks will be cold to me. I’m home, I’m home. If you touch the paper with dirty hands, it’ll get dirty.”
“I’m not kidding. Tait is a great magician.”
“Huh, you said you came to buy a spell book?”
“Hmm? Spell book?”
“Boy, you don’t even know the spellbook for the archmage’s habits?
“Okay, talk quickly.”
I glared at the clerk.
“What is it? You’re such a creepy kid. A spellbook is something you use when chanting without chanting.”
“I can do it without using such things.”
“Hahaha, you’re an amateur after all. When you visualize a spell in your head, you’re reciting it. It’s not that different from chanting. However, if you write it down on paper, you can visualize it just by looking at it.”
“Oh”
I clapped my hand.
That’s right, if you write it down on paper, the image will be instantaneous just by looking at it.
“Please give me a spellbook.”
“He’s the best-selling guy, and if it comes with a key, it’s worth a gold coin.”
“Can I buy it?”
“Come on, the ridicule has returned home.”
I have no choice but to make a spell book using straw paper.
“Two pieces of straw paper, please.”
“Tch, after all, it’s cheap straw paper. Well, even this is a customer. Maido.”
I also bought pen and ink and my earnings are gone today.
That’s right, I need to learn how to make magic tools.
I wonder if I could go to a magic tool shop and ask them to teach me.
It’s free to just listen.
When I went to the magic tool shop, the clerk glared at me with a sharp look.
“I’m sorry I’m busy. Please teach me how to make magic tools.”
“I thought a slum dweller came, and I thought he was applying to be my apprentice.”
“No, I didn’t come here to become a disciple. I just want to know how to make it.”
“Oh, you’re a fearless child. Okay, I’ll teach you. Just prepare a magic stone and tell him to carve that spell into the magic stone. After that, chant the spell to be carved.”
“It’s easy.”
“Don’t be silly. If the engraving spell isn’t efficient, you’ll only be able to do stupid magic tools.”
“Is there a limit to the number of characters in a spell?”
“There’s no such thing, so it’s troublesome. There’s always room for ingenuity. Even if the spell is long, magic tools don’t have to be chanted.”
“Thank you, it was helpful”
“It’s over”
“Please wait”
Yay, I win this.
You can make magic tools with the program and earn as much as you want.
I’ll try it as soon as I get home.
“I’ll make Myra feel good too.”
“Tight is a great magician after all.”
According to my prediction, if a normal magic tool is a bicycle, my magic tool should be able to do something comparable to F1.
