The Novice Alchemist's Store

"It seems impossible to reuse the door..."

The kitchen still leaves traces of destruction.

The first thing I investigated was the back entrance area with a full view of the backyard and the wind blowing in.

It's a warm time, so I can fool myself into eating while feeling nature, but if this is winter, it's just a pain in the ass.

"Yes, it was completely broken, over there"

Corner of the backyard.

A pile of debris just where Lorea pointed.

The end of the door in it was rolling.

Bakibaki.

Exactly in that condition.

You can use it if you block the hole, or not even in that condition.

"... yeah, let's give that up. Next up is the wall... how dare you break it..."

This building has the effect of engraving and is considerably stronger than normal.

Still, doors, windows, etc. are not likely to break themselves because the original material is material.

But the walls are stone built.

The original rather strong stone walls are further reinforced by engraving.

In a normal human being, bringing a hammer won't break it.

"Even bears can't break it, but I guess that means frenzy."

"Pretty forceful, isn't it?"

Door size is for human use.

They were too small for Hell Flame Grizzlies, and the walls around the door are huge and crooked because they were the ones that destroyed the walls around them and tried to get in.

"... ha, the only way to fix this place is to work with Mr. Geberg"

It includes engraving, so you can't just leave it to the carpenter.

And the cost of the materials needed to repair that engraving...... I don't want to think about it!

"Well, Lorea, what do you want in the kitchen? You can say whatever you want now! The alchemist's bottom line, because I'll show you!

Half abandoned herself, she replies reluctantly, as Lorea was a little carried away, to me when Don and I slapped her in the chest.

"Oh, no, normally if I had a stove...... I'd like to try the Magic Instruction Stove"

"Magic guide stove. Copy, copy, I'll put it on, of course, to that extent. You want some water? You don't want some kind of magic equipment that automatically pumps you out of the well?

"... it's convenient to have one, is that good? Even though it's luxurious enough just to have a well right next door."

"You're an alchemist! In the first place, I was going to make it sometime."

If this happens again, I'll make it thoroughly convenient for you!

"Well, please"

"What about the other... oven or something? You know, bread, it's easy to bake, right?

"Yes, is that good!? Such expensive stuff!

"Daiji-bu! Leave it to your sister! Magic guide oven, because I'm going to make it! Hahaha!"

I laugh upside down at Lorea, who opened her eyes to surprise.

As a matter of fact, there are few houses with decent ovens out there.

No, a normal house, should I say I barely have it?

Apart from the Magic Instruction oven, which has a similar mechanism to the Magic Instruction Stove, ordinary ovens - so-called bread cauldrons, etc. - consume a lot of firewood anyway, first to warm the kiln itself.

You can't use that much firewood to bake bread for your family, so there are usually only kilns in places where you bake a lot of bread, such as bakeries and lodgings.

Or there's a shared kiln in the village, and I cook it all at once.... Not in this village though.

With that happening, a personal, easy-to-use kiln - the oven is invaluable.

Most importantly, I don't have many opportunities to use the oven for the same reason, so it's a different matter of whether I can use it or not.

"And then... should I install a fridge and a freezer too? That would be convenient, wouldn't it?

"Ha, it's certainly convenient... Sarasa, how much is anything too extravagant...?

There is no place in this village where freezers can be found.

Because it's pretty expensive.

It would be useful, but I don't have that much trouble without it.

"But, Lorea, you said we'd build a good kitchen, right?

I tilted my neck and said such a thing, and I move my hands like Lorea panicked.

"Yes, I told you! Whatever you want......!

"It's a joke, a joke"

"So, right? Exactly, you don't install that much stuff."

I chased after Lorea, who exhaled like a ho.

"No, I'll install it."

"Do you!?"

"I will. You don't have to worry about it, because it's a combination of practice. I'm still in training."

"Yes, what is it? Then it's good...... isn't it?

"Yeah. I don't care, I don't care"

In fact, you have to make the tools around it once.

It's just what's on all four volumes of Alchemy, so I can't move on to five volumes without making this.

I don't need to install anything that sells, but this village won't be able to do it first.

"First of all, order materials and repair walls, right? Lorea, can I have your store number, please? 'Cause I'm gonna come out a little bit."

"I understand. You're not going."

◇ ◇ ◇

Teppanyaki is required to make the Magic Stove and the Magic Oven.

Alchemy processes the iron plates on which they are based and turns them into guided stoves and ovens.

All you need is one or four iron plates.

Plus, some iron chunks to make other parts or something.

After ordering them from the blacksmith, Mr. Zizd, I went to the carpenter, Mr. Geberg's house.

At first glance, it opens the door to a house that only looks like a normal private home and speaks up.

"Hello ~. I'm Sarasa"

Mr. Geberg, a seemingly difficult grandfather.

But he's actually a very good guy.

Much used to it, so now I, too, have grown up enough to talk easily.

"Whoa, lady. Are you finally here? Let's go."

"- Huh? Huh?

I just greeted Mr. Geberg, trying to leave the house immediately, and as I was black-and-white his eyes, Mr. Geberg slapped me in the back with a pastime to hurry.

"I guess I'll fix your house. The house of the most meritorious remains broken because I couldn't allow myself to be a carpenter in this village, but I couldn't just push myself into a sleeping house."

"Um, any plans to repair other houses, etc...?

As of today, I was going to come to that meeting to see when you could fix it.

"Silly Yarrow! Although the lady's house will be decided first! Look, you have sudden cancer!

"Yes!

Pasin again, and I was slapped in the back, and I went after Mr. Geberg, who walked with "Kakushaku", to my house, chasing him for a small run.

Lead them to the back where they are broken, as they are rushed.

"Aah! This guy's broken brilliantly! Should the walls be fixed as usual?

"Yes, that's it."

Though not urgent, the backyard fence I made because of it.

We need to fix this to protect the herbal fields and, most importantly, to dry the laundry without worrying about the eyes.

But more importantly, I knew you were at home.

"I'm not in a hurry with the walls, but the house is better..."

It's good to feel natural, but if it rains, I'll have trouble.

"Hmm, did they hit the wall as well as the door? I don't know about the walls here, but they're sturdy compared to normal, right?

"Do you know that?

"The architecture of this house involves me."

"Oh, really?"

- Naturally if you think about it.

Given that Mr. Geberg is a carpenter in this village and his age.

On the contrary, isn't it harder to find something in this village building that Mr. Geberg isn't involved in?

"I'll remember the engraving being a pain in the ass."

"Uh..."

Well, when you put in the engraving, it's because you can't build it the way the carpenter thinks.

I think people who are short tempered are frustrated because there are restrictions on form, and many times alchemy work gets pinched in the middle of work.

"This time, too, I think it will cause inconvenience at the time of repair..."

"Understand. It is the carpenter's job to meet the customer's demands. It's not my job to make whatever I want. Hobbies."

"Ooh..."

Excellent. Respect.

Even if you're a pro, you still can't ignore a customer's request from the edge and say, 'This way is good' or something.

If you need to change, you should explain why properly and convince them.

Because it's a business.

Receiving such my gaze, Mr. Geberg snorts out of his gaze as he tickles.

"Hmm. So, can we start restoring it right away? Miss, what are your plans?"

"Of course I'm fine. The store leaves it to Lorea, and it's important to fix this place."

"Well, let's just get started. Keep it up, ladies."

"Yes."

The repair of the house means professional work, and there is no participation from the villagers who called for it when making the walls.

Me and Mr. Geberg alone will proceed with the work.

Mr. Geberg loads blocks and lacquers, and I apply the alchemy mechanism...

"You're quite used to it, aren't you?

"I've been working as a craftsman for many times as long as my daughter's life."

"Right"

You said you were involved in the architecture of this house, too.

However, repairing the engraving is difficult to guide.

If you want to make a new one, you can make it so that it is easy for you to make one, but in the case of repairs, you have to work quite carefully so that there are no existing engravings and discrepancies, so use nerves.

And gory and worn out, expensive materials.

Ugh, it hurts. Very painful. Purse wise. Spiritually.

I honestly don't even want to think about how much the total will be.

To continue such a painful struggle, for a few hours. The repair of the wall was finally completed.

... Yeah, it hasn't taken you long enough at last.

As a matter of course, Mr. Geberg has a good hand, and I helped him with both magic.

"That's a shame. If you weren't an alchemist, I'd have made you an apprentice."

"If I hadn't been an alchemist, I wouldn't have been able to imitate a carpenter, because that's what I learned in school."

"Dexterity is school, let's not relate? You just have to plant it."

"With that said, Mr. Geberg, you don't have a disciple, do you?

"That's it. He's got a lot of guts."

Disgruntled, Mr. Geberg exhales from his nose, but this parent seems pretty tough, so hey.

Even if you look at the work you've done so far.

I'd like to be the one to ask for it, but it seems hard to be a disciple.

"Well, that's good. - Doors are normal and good, right?

"Yes. Oh, but it's sturdy, so please. Previously on" Oh, my God. "

Mr. Geberg also smiles bitterly when he sees the remains of the door I pointed to.

"I'd be in trouble if that happened again and again... ok. I'll fix the garden walls soon."

"Regards"

'Soon', but there's Mr. Geberg.

The next day, the door was attached to the back door of the house and the fence was beautifully completed.
