Chapter 026

After we finished purchasing our equipment, we headed towards an inn . It was a low rank inn for adventurer, however a basic meal was included so it was considerable .

My money and Ninas is now 87 gold, 345 silver, 58 half silver and 86 copper . For a family of four living in Resser village, a gold coin is enough for one month .

(TL note: it’s funny how a couple chapters before they said it was hard to come up with 100gold . It looks pretty easy lol and it doesn’t seemed like Lena ia going to magician school . PR Note: Yeah now think about how much they spend on equipment…)

We hunt bandits and monster materials . Selling magic balls and potions made by [alchemy], our money is not something an ordinary rank F or E adventurers could have .

” Yu . . We should move to a better inn . ” (Nina)

” I also want one with a bath… ” (Lena)

” I know, an inn with a private bath and food sent to the room . ” (Nina)

Finally we get a recommendation from Collet . The name is Kazamidori . A night with meal is 8000 moon coins but it has a private bath installed . A low rank inn costs about 500 moon coins and a regular one is from 3000 to 5000 .

We arrived and the information from Collet is really useful .

“Welcome cute adventurer-san! ”

A cheerful sister greets us from the counter .

” 10 days stay with a meal for three please . ”

” Really? A room is 8000 moon coins per night with meal . Times ten and for three people… It will be… ” (innkeeper)

” It’s 240,000 moon coins or 2 gold and 4 silver . ” (Yu)

” Aah . . that’s correct . . Are you a merchant rather than adventurer? ”

In this world, simple arithmetic isn’t widely known . There are classes but only available to merchants or nobles because of the price .

” So I don’t look like an adventurer? ” (Yu)

” Nevermind about that, just give us one room . ” (Nina)

” But, the room should… . . ” (Yu)

” just give us one . ” (Nina)

We paid extra charges to be in one room but it was far cheaper than renting three .

Nina is always saying we need to save save and save money . Although the inn we choose is certainly is a good one so the idea of saving doesn’t really count . However Lena doesn’t seemed to be dissatisfied staying in one room with me .

“Yes . . ” Ninas face has a nasty smile floating instead of an older sister one . I didn’t want to argue so I just take off the equipment and sit on the ground . Since it was also far from the city center, I could do some experiments .

” Nina, take out the magic stones . ”

” Magic stone? ”

Usually when we defeated a monster, it left behind a magic stone . These stones have various uses and can be used to power various tools . They can be sold at a fairly high price, at one gold per piece, but I didn’t sell all of them today .

I take one magic stone and cast healing magic on it . It was more like casting [alchemy] by using healing magic .

The result is as expected

——

Magic ball (grade 1): has a healing effect enchanted .

—–

(TL note: remember the equipment a few chapter back with alchemy creation? He is applying the principles)

The most important thing is the application .

“Nina, can you lend me your earring? ”

” my earring? ”

I received it from her and casted [alchemy] on the earring and the magic ball .

—–

Normal earrings (grade 6): increased HP recovery rate .

——-

” It’s a success . Nina, lend me the other one . ”

On the other one I tried to put an antidote effect . After the [alchemy] process it has poison resistance increased . As I explained the process, Nina is listening with sparkling eyes .

” Granting skills to equipment is a secret of [alchemy ] it is better to keep it a secret . ”

Lena is also surprised . She came to me and passed me her hat .

” I also want it… ”

” because you have low HP, HP recovery speed is suitable right? ”

She was smiling and looking at Nina . I granted a skill to her hat as if it was an easy thing to do .

” Thanks . . ”

Lena is satisfied . Now it’s time to experiment .

I wanted to grant the flame lance skill and the magic stone shattered .

” Eh why? ” (Nina)

” What happened? ” (Lena)

It was because flame lance is a magic of rank 2 and the magic stone is only rank 1 . The rank is higher than that it could hold so it crumbled because it wasn’t balanced . I tried to put a rank 1 skill into a rank 2 magic stone and it was possible .

Maybe by the time my [alchemy] reaches a higher level I can do more and put higher skills .

Into Ninas steel dagger, I granted fire attribute with a fireball magic ball . I only did it to one dagger to be cautious if the monster we face have fire attribute, having two fire attributes daggers would be stupid .
