Good morning from room 0501 in the second building. It's May 3rd, and it's a Creationist class. I'm Herman. The class content is the creation of attribute magic stones. ... It's a bitter memory. I did make them, but I fainted because of that weapon. Well, it was my own carelessness. So, let's start the class.
"Let's start the Creationist class. First, place the attribute materials on the alchemy array or in the alchemy cauldron. Use whichever you are comfortable with."
I used to place them on the alchemy array. If it doesn't matter, I prefer the alchemy array. It was easier to visualize, and if it doesn't matter, I prefer the alchemy array over the cauldron. There might be a preference.
"First, imbue the materials with your magic power evenly. After that, you should be able to draw out more than two types of magic power. If there are three, the material has two attributes. In that case, you can only create one type of magic stone. I recommend creating the one with more magic power. To determine the magic power, it depends on your talent. You should be able to roughly tell which attribute it is. There are people who can't tell, but if you can't, you need to practice or learn through experience. Let's try it out. Even attribute-less magic stones are in high demand."
It's all about the sense in the end. ... That's understandable. The way people feel magic power is different. So, let's place the tornado grass on the alchemy array. Infuse it with magic power and choose which magic power to draw out. You can't choose both. It's a waste, but the wind attribute is this one. Draw it out, rotate it, and converge it. That's it, the attribute magic stone is complete. It's not a big deal.
"Go ahead and make as many as you can. Make at least 50 wind attribute magic stones. You should still have plenty of materials. Get to work. No leaving the classroom. We'll spend three hours making magic stones. Time is precious. Get back to work."
... You can't leave, huh? Well, that's fine. In the Creationist class, we'll be using a lot of magic stones. Let's make them in advance. We'll need a lot of attribute-less magic stones made from ordinary magic mushrooms. Let's make more than we need. Let's get it done quickly. ... There's no need to rush, so take your time.
I spent three hours making magic stones. If my count is correct, I think I made the necessary magic stones before class. ... I didn't memorize them, so I might have made too many, but if that's the case, I'll make something else when the time comes. The characteristics of magic mushrooms and magic stones can differ. Sometimes it's better to mix them, and sometimes it's better to use them as materials. It depends on your talent. ... The Illusionist class? That's supposed to be non-existent, so I won't go there.
After that, let's stop by the Dawn faction's laboratory and make just the showerhead and take it back. ... Just to be safe, let's take some soil back too. It's surprisingly useful. You can make various things with magic power, and the chairs in the room were probably added by the room owner. Men don't have tea parties, but women do. Even if you're not a noble, you might have a tea party with close friends. ... That's just my imagination, but I think there are more men in the Iron faction. In reality, it might be different.
Now that I'm back in my room, let's make the hose to connect the showerhead using oak intestines. I don't know how to make it, but I think I need a water attribute magic stone, an earth attribute magic stone, and a wind attribute magic stone. A water attribute magic stone for water resistance, an earth attribute magic stone for pure reinforcement, and a wind attribute magic stone to smooth the water flow. I think this will work. ... It's just a feeling. I made a lot of attribute magic stones in the class earlier, so let's use them. I think it's easier to do this in the alchemy cauldron. Let's put about 3 meters of oak intestines and a water attribute magic stone in the cauldron. Mix them until they blend. Next, add an earth attribute magic stone and mix it in. Finally, add a wind attribute magic stone and mix it while manipulating the magic power to form the hose. The whole process should take about 10 minutes. I think it's done.
I'll use magic mushrooms to connect the showerhead completely. How should I connect it to the faucet? I can't attach it directly. I'll need to remove it when I leave. Let's use an earth attribute magic stone to make the hose opening a bit narrower and stronger. That way, it won't come off due to pressure. It should be like a hard rubber. I'll use magic power to quickly make it and attach it to the faucet. ... Because of this design, it takes some effort to attach it. But it's necessary to make it hard to come off. ... I managed to install it. Let's try turning the faucet. ... Oh, it's a shower. This is it. It can't be used as a regular faucet, but it works fine as a shower, so it's okay. If it's a problem, I can remove it.
Let's make a few more hoses. Having hoses can be useful, and being able to transport water over long distances is good. What should I do with this? ... I can't think of anything. Let's go to the store and see if there's anything to spark my creativity.
I came to the store without anything specific in mind, but I can skip the first floor since I use it often. I'll check it last. The second floor is for materials, so I can skip that too. There's nothing to spark creativity in materials. The third floor is for metal products, weapons, ingots, and silverware. I don't need my own cutlery, but is there anything here? There are various ingots: magic iron, iron, silver, gold, platinum, magic silver, and magic gold. They are the same as the currency.
... I can make magic silver and magic gold. I just need to mix metal with a magic stone. The quality here is good enough for currency. If you want higher quality, you have to make it yourself. Actually, metal itself isn't that expensive. ... It's because of the earth magic realm. There are apparently golden golems. Platinum can't be enchanted for some reason, and it's impossible even with alchemy. I don't know why. For weapons, I recommend attribute magic silver. Silvio said that. Magic gold can't have attributes. Iron can have attributes, but magic silver makes harder and more flexible weapons. Magic gold is harder and more flexible, but it can't have attributes, which is not good. Strong enemies often have strong attributes, so attribute weapons are better. For human opponents, magic gold is better. In war, the price of magic gold goes up.
Oh, there's a mirror here. ... It's not much different from the mirror from my previous life. I don't know how it's made, but it's quite expensive. ... Isn't it just silver plating on glass? It should be cheaper with alchemy. ... It's just shaping it with magic power. ... It should be possible with an alchemy array, but is it that difficult? Glass is easy to get, and so is silver. Iron is cheap. Why is it as expensive as magic silver? Is it a secret technique? ... I'll make one for myself and keep it at home. It's not a good idea to make cheap things and start a fight. I'll keep it to myself.
Hmm, weapons are weapons. Well, of course. The quality isn't extremely high, but it's good enough for the magic realm. It's sufficient for kelpies with the earth attribute magic silver sword here. ... But I think using the king earth grass fruit would be better. I think it's about the same quality as an earth attribute magic mushroom. ... I'll have to look for a blacksmith eventually. They should be in the free market, so I'll do that after two years.
Hmm, it wasn't particularly interesting, but I'll make the mirror myself. The material cost isn't high. If it's just magic power manipulation, it's almost free. I'll have a proper weapon made when I can make attribute magic silver. I hope I find a good blacksmith. ... Let's try making something with glass. I'll check the fourth floor first.
The fourth floor sells alchemy items. ... There's a big difference between alchemy items that you can understand at a glance and those you can't. This box is the practice box Melanie mentioned. It's in the Alchemy Encyclopedia. ... Most of the things you can understand are listed. On the other hand, there are things left without their purpose written. ... There's not much hope here. I think this is a blue potion. It can't be a blue dye, and I don't know any blue potions. ... Why is it here?
Now I'm on the first floor. This is where the most variety is sold, and it's the one I know best. There are things made of stone and earth, cheap-looking high-end glass items, and wooden items. It's the kind of selection you'd expect when a flea market opens. There are a lot of ingredients. ... I don't know the names of the food, but as long as it's edible, it's fine. I think I've seen all the food here. So, let's look at other miscellaneous items. ... But there's nothing special. Special items are usually made to order. First, you have to explain what you want to make. Hmm, I can't think of anything. The only thing that sparks creativity is the mirror, but I don't need it now. I just want to make something with glass. ... I can only think of a beaker, but a storage bottle would be fine. The shopping ended without finding anything to make. If there's something I want to make, that would be nice.
Whether it was interesting or not, it doesn't matter.
I would appreciate it if you could include your evaluation.
If you could point out things in your review,
I think I can reflect them in my writing.
... Probably.
