nThe progress of my investigation was surprisingly smooth, I could understand the magic circles, to the point that I could apply it effectively in different aspects. Until now, I, who couldn’t manufacture even simple items like a light lamp magic device or an ignition lighter magic device, am now able to manufacture artifacts at the level of those from ancient ruins and dungeons.

nOn bestowing magic on armor and weapons, aside from the dwarven country Gnomstoll Kingdom, I might be able to make magic weapons… No, since I’ve already been successful at simple Enchants, with the research I did on magic circles and magic letters and symbols in the library yesterday, and my analysis on the magic formulas of ancient magic finished, I might surpass the dwarves before long if I practice.

nAs for my current status, because I haven’t been fighting, my level hasn’t risen even once.

nAside from Magic Perception and Magic Power Manipulation which I constantly practice, the Skill level of Time-Space Attribute Magic and the Job level of Magic Bestower have gone up.

nMagic, whether it be alchemy or attribute magic, fails to invoke advanced magic if your skill level is not enough, so training everyday is essential.

nAfter changing to the Magic Bestower and practicing enchanting, it was clear to see that constructing magic formulas became much easier. Given how that sense grows with each increase in job level, I could tell in an instant that it is quite a lot even though the numbers of the job correction doesn’t show.

nBe it Bestowal magic or Attribute magic, I think the cruxes lie in the skills Magic Perception and Magic Power Manipulation. If you can control magic power precisely, then constructing a magic formula would become easy. And because adding an image has a large effect, there is an endlessly large divide in images between me, a man from Japan, and the people of Mildgard, whose science and civilization is equal to that of the 15th century.

nBetween these two, the people of this world fail and can’t smoothly invoke alchemy’s fundamentals, 【Decomposition】【Reconstruction】【Extraction】. It wont work unless decomposition is used to put magic power into the magic formula.

nThat really will make Alchemy obsolete.

n「Bestowal magic is ready and all, but my current problem is more basic than that. I don’t have a place to work at.」

nIn Bohd Village, I could work from alchemy to smithing to woodworking in my house so it slipped my mind, but as one would expect, I can’t do that in the room of the inn.

n「What to do.…………… should I consult with Papeck-san?」

nI had Kaede enter the other dimension, and proceeded to the Papeck Company. He might not meet me without an appointment but I don’t know anyone else in this town.

n「Yep, it’s hard to enter, isn’t it?」

nI arrived at the entrance of the Papeck Company building but the lower-middle class me is hesitating.

n「Oh my, if it isn’t Takumi-sama. You’ve come. Please come into the shop.」

n「Ah, Thomas-san, good morning.」

nThe one who greeted me is the Papeck Company’s head clerk, Thomas-san. I felt relief as Thomas-san guided me into the building.

nLed into the same room as the other day, I drank tea while waiting for Thomas-san.

n「Apologies for the wait.」

nKnocking on the door, Thomas-san entered.

n「Papeck-san will be here shortly, so please enjoy your tea while waiting.」

nI thanked Thomas-san for the referral to the Golden Wheat Pavilion, and we chatted about my impression of my visit to the library.

n「Thank you for waiting.」

nPapeck-san entered the parlor.

n「What business do you have with me today?」

nStanding up to greet one another, Papeck-san then asked about the matter. As expected of a president that handles a company, he manages time efficiently.

n「The truth is, I was planning on renting a place like a workshop or something similar where I can work on various things, but because I don’t know anyone in this town, even though I think it might be an annoyance, I would inquire and consult with Papeck-san.」

n「Oh my, I have been careless. This Papeck is ashamed, too ecstatic about the handpump, he was. A workshop is a matter of course for Takumi-sama’s production, and yet…, I am very much ashamed.」

nPapeck-san, aware that a workshop is necessary for my activities in this town, seemed to have forgotten. I myself had thoughtlessly forgotten, so I have no words.

n「No, I had also forgotten.」

n「The workshop is for Takumi-sama’s solitary use, correct?」

n「Yes, since I think my smithing and alchemy are unique, I can’t hire someone who could do the same so I’d like to work alone for now.」

nI said so and Papeck-san pondered over it.

n「……Hiring someone unskilled would be risky, wouldn’t it. That having been said, it would be troubling if Takumi-sama can’t concentrate solely on production. Someone from our place…… is not possible.」

n「President, in my humble opinion, wouldn’t purchasing a slave be acceptable?」

nTowards Papeck-san who was muttering to himself, Thomas-san dropped a bombshell.

nWell~ it seems I’m the only one who thought that about “slave”.

n「That’s true. That might be the best option for Takumi-sama who has many secrets. No, it’s the only option at present.」

nTo hide my use of Alchemy and Smithing Magic, Papeck-san and Thomas-san are saying that it is best to buy a slave to protect that secret. But I have one thing I must say before that.

n「Papeck-san, and Thomas-san too, I came here today for a referral on a workshop where I could do my production in though…………」

n「M-my apologies. Again, I have become excited and digressed.」

n「Then, I will list down properties suitable for Takumi-sama’s workshop from the ones that the company manage, and guide you to them.」

n「Please do.」

nAs expected of the Papeck Company, they even have real estates.

nThomas-san left to pick up the property files; Papeck-san had work; I was waiting for Thomas-san at the entrance of the company.

nGaragaragara

nThomas-san turned the carriage to the front of the company.

n「Now then, please get on, Takumi-sama.」

n「Yes, please.」

nThomas-san drove the carriage to the first property.
