D Genesis, 3 Years after Dungeon Appeared

The stone was brought in by a JDA staff member in a hurry.

"Oh, what is that? Rosario necklace?

"Ah, Mr. Rokujo. I was asked for an appraisal. It seems to be an item from the dungeon, but removing stones is like NG."

"Yeah, what's that? Then you can't even weigh CT properly.

Rokujo Wheat is a rich mineral mania that hates to be called a mineral girl.

More or less, the people working there tended to do so, but her maniac soul could be pulled by her colleagues.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

I'll never forget that. June 8, 1997.

The Tokyo International Mineral Fair, where fossil fossils from the fetus in the egg shell just before the Terriginosaurus hatched, was drawn by fossil mania fathers.

I feel like my father was just using wheat to get out to see it, but wheat that had just gone to elementary school was tense when he went out with his dad on Sunday.

The fossil in question was kind of a messy bone stuffed in an egg-shaped stone, and it wasn't particularly beautiful or anything, so wheat saw it and felt nothing.

The wheat that was roaming the venue with his daddy's ass, who was obsessed with it, was freaked out by the whole body skeleton of the Moroccan elasmosaurus, and ran out and got lost.

So, anxiously, when I was looking for my father, I ran into him.

"It's beautiful....."

To date, it was a crystal cluster that was not particularly unusual, just in a slightly good shape.

But in the eyes of the wheat at at that time, it seemed like a wonderful treasure in a strange country.

I took out the 500-yen coin in my pocket and looked at it, but it's not very affordable.

At that time, the gentle, drooping uncle who had been watching it talked.

"Miss. You like the crystal?

"Wow?

"Look, the sparkling one there."

The wheat looked at it and nodded well.

"Well, how about this? It's small, but it's in good shape, so I saved it."

That's what my uncle took out was a small cluster that seemed to be riding a 100-yen coin, like the treasure he had seen before.

Wheat liked it at first glance.

"Now, can I buy...?

And when I perhaps showed him the 500-yen coin that I was squeezing, my uncle nodded loudly and said it was enough.

"This crystal is fragile because it's a baby. Don't hit me."

My uncle gently handed it to me when he fixed it to a small case called a micromount with a transparent lid.

When the wheat gladly shone it into the light, I saw something like a rainbow everywhere. It seemed like the entrance to her dream world.

"Do you like it?

As uncle said, wheat smiled and nodded forcefully, "Thank you! And I said,

That's how she jumped herself into the bottomless swamp.

Afterwards, my father, who came in a hurry to find her, got angry at me because it was dangerous, but I thought it was a little unreasonable.

At that time, my uncle was the owner of a mineral shop in the town of Gokai.

Now, I was old enough to call him Grandpa, but I've been dating her like a friend ever since.

"It's just a quick simplified appraisal. I'm not issuing a formal appraisal, so that's an estimate. Anyway, if we don't get back to the lab, there's no Raman, no photoluminescence."

Photoluminescence measurement is a device that measures composition and crystallinity, and Raman spectroscopy is a device that can be optically tested.

Major applications are often used in semiconductor development, but they are also used in stone analysis. It's quite expensive and I can't buy it.

Here, which is dominated by simple checks, at best, we are measuring refraction on micro, dichro, and UV multi.

The microscope is, in short, a microscope, and the dicroscope is a simple tool for examining the polychromatic nature of birefringent color stones.

A UV multiscope is an ultraviolet light that corresponds to both long and short waves to see fluorescence, and a refractometer is a device that measures the refractive index as it is named.

"Besides, I'm not sure how that stone sticks together. I'm not sure I can undo it."

The wheat wore white gloves, took it in hand and looked at the connecting part, but as far as I could see, it was only slightly caught in the front, and I didn't really know how it was stuck with this.

Then, I touched the surface and moved my fingers as if they were still there, and I sighed satisfactorily. A briolette cut that feels like a skilled craftsman's hand.

Cut is good. It's like an antique. "

The pair shape brilliant is also a beautiful teardrop-shaped cut with a calculated refractive index, but the finely faceted briolette in all directions has a different taste of estate jewellery (* 1).

"At first, I thought it was Aquamarine."

"That's not true. The refractive index is completely different."

Wheat said while looking at the stone in the loupe.

"The refractive index was roughly the same as the random -"

"Birefractive (* 2). It's not a sapphire, it's not a cyanide... what about fluorescence (* 3)?

It was bright blue.

"Blue?"

Wheat inadvertently turned away from the loupe.

The only remaining possibility is a light blue zircon, but its fluorescence turns yellow and orange.

"In orange, there was no wave wind...."

"This flashy fire-"

Make the stone clear to light while changing the angle.

"- Besides, Benitoit?

"It's almost the same from the numbers."

Hehe. I didn't hear about the artificial synthesis of Venice Ait.... "

"Because I'm not."

The appraising man shrugged his shoulders.

"There are 10 cts.

Wheat looked at the stone on the case at hand and said.

"It's definitely bigger than the Smithsonian one."

There are few large stones of jewel quality in Venice Ait. Therefore, even 1 ct (0.2 g) is said to be sufficiently large.

Thus, the facet-cut (* 4), perhaps the largest stone in the world, was at the Smithsonian Museum, which was 7.7 ct in size.

"I just want to take it to the lab...."

"That's impossible. It's almost time to return it."

"Extend it."

"Please don't..."

If you decide not to return the stone you took from the customer at the scheduled date and time, it is also a serious credit problem.

The wheat looked at the stone as if it had not been practiced.

"But... why does a dungeon come out with this kind of stone?

"The material we just released says that mineral resources will be generated in 20 to 79 layers, or"

"So, how do we get there?

"Ha-ha? Ha-ha..."

Although it was not usual for wheat to fly, the man could only laugh and deceive the boulder that it was a joke.

However, wheat was extremely serious at this time.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Benitoit?

"That's right. It was said to be an aquamarine, but the refractive index was quite different."

Naruse said that while looking at the tablet displaying the results of the investigation.

"From the refractive index, the dispersion, the specific gravity, the fluorescence under ultraviolet light, it's probably Briolette Cut's Benitoite."

"Why, perhaps?

"Gemstone-quality Venetian atoms used to come from California, but big stones are rare and can be said to be large enough at 1 ct. So, it's the top one... but it seems to have about 10 cts."

Ha.

Even though I was told it was 10ct, it didn't come properly. If you convert it to grams, it will be 2g.

Naruse added an explanation to my reply, which seemed to bother me.

"Okay, Yoshimura-san. The biggest one faceted in Venice is in Smithsonian, but that's 7.7ct.

In short, it is the world's largest impossible size stone, and its value is very high due to its high transparency. It seems that it would be very difficult to judge it by a simplified appraisal.

So, probably, what is it?

"I have a request for a detailed appraisal."

"No, it's okay because it's troublesome. I just thought if I knew the stones, I'd know how to take care of them correctly."

It seems that there are soft stones, faded stones when exposed to sunlight, and so on.

"More than that, what happened to the sign?

"That's it....."

After murmuring, Naruse looked sorry and replied.

"What's wrong?

"I was told to stop joking, but I didn't get it from the beginning."

Yeah, I guess so.

Is there a sign in the inscription from the dungeon of a man who died in an accident three years ago?

HAHAHAHA, what kind of sandwich mystery?

"I also looked into Dr. Tyler...."

It had written about his career, which was open to the public.

Titles are lined up with the titles of many organizations.

"I understand the American Institute of Physics and the American Physical Society, but what is KLI?

"What comes to mind immediately is the Korea Labor Institute?"

"Physicists do labor research?

"Ultimately, he is the director of the Institute of Elementary Particle Physics in Nevada."

"Did the accident happen?

"It was recorded that we were in the middle of a surplus dimension confirmation experiment."

"So the autograph is....."

"Unfortunately, no results were found."

If I could find it, I would have liked to compare it to the characters written in the inscription, but I can't help it.

So, what's the inscription after all?

"I translated it, but I didn't understand the second half at all. Or, obviously, it's written in a different language, and I've seen it in Arabic, but I've never seen it."

Certainly, the characters used in the first half and the second half are clearly different.

I checked the picture on my tablet and said.

What about the first half?

"I put a translation there, but in summary, it's like an inspiration to dungeon explorers."

Motivation?

"Yes, apparently this is like the last page of the book of wanderers, which is close to what's called a postscript or a depression...."

"Well then, this numerical nonsense....."

"Probably that. I think the book of wanderers is a book of 127 pages."

Miyoshi pinched his mouth while replacing it with a new tea.

"By the way, it's the thirteenth prime Ramanujan number, senpai."

Again.....

When I thought so, the front bell rang.

Miyoshi, who confirmed the video, said, "What? Saito-san?"

"Are you with me?

"Unfortunately, Saito-san seems to be alone.

Miyoshi said that with a smile.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Chisu

"What's wrong? It's unusual."

"It's about time who runs out, so I thought I'd take it when I have a little time."

"Oh, I understand. Could you just sit around for a second?

Ohhhh

That said, she bowed to Mr. Naruse and sat in the chair opposite her.

A tablet with inscriptions on it was left on the desk, but nothing in particular was kept secret.

After a while, Saito-san came back with half a dozen bottles prepared by Miyoshi and said while looking at the image on the tablet.

"Tell my fellow earthlings," what is this? New play? "

No, when we heard that already, we all screamed in our hearts.

((Wha, wha?!
