Chapter 37: Completion

Alex-sama takes my hand.

“Fufu, we must check if it’s a proper magic stone.”

“R-Right!”

Alex-sama releases my hand and walks briskly to the device. He carefully opens the lid, places the piece he took out on the black cloth spread out.

And he brings the inspection device close to it and measures the weight on the scale.

“Magic reaction detected… The color is transparent, a neutral magic stone… The weight is 0.3 grams…”

Alex-sama nodded.

“It’s a magic stone. It’s completely a magic stone.”

“That’s wonderful. May I take a look?”

“Of course.”

I switch places with Alex-sama, borrow the gloves for the experiment, and pick up the magic stone, holding it up to my eye level.

It shines with rainbow colors, bathing in sunlight between my thumb and index finger.

“0.3 grams means 1.5 carats. After cutting, it should be around 1 carat. The color is nearly colorless, with a slight hint of blue. Although it’s a neutral stone, it may be water-oriented due to my personal magic characteristics….This is fantastic.”

“Is it?”

“It may be natural since it’s not made inside the demon beast or underground, but as far as I can see, there are no inclusions in the inner material. I may be inexperienced, but it’s at least a little better quality than VVS and might even be perfectly flawless. “

Senni makes a voice that sounds like he doesn’t quite understand.

“In other words, this can pay your salary for a whole year.”

“Wow! … Ouch!”

Senni was startled and leaned back, banging her head against the wall. I laughed along with Alex-sama.

“Well, you won’t know until you actually try it. But Vilhelmina is more knowledgeable than me. I don’t know what VVS means.”

“As a noble lady, I am knowledgeable about stones. I was raised in a place that produces magic stones, after all. VVS stands for very very slightly included. It means that there are very few impurities or scratches in the stone, and it is a term that represents high-quality stones below flawless. If used in magic tools, it can provide stable power, but with this quality, it can also be used for magical rings and necklaces that serve as both jewelry and magic.”

I put the magic stone back on the cloth.

This will become a better weapon than I thought, and much sooner.

Alex-sama offered his hand. I hold it back. It’s a strength different from that of an escort.It’s as if I can feel his excitement.

I tried to stand up after being held, and my body swayed.

Alex-sama quickly embraced me.

“What’s wrong? Are you okay?”

“Ah, I’m sorry. Because I suddenly used a lot of magic after a long time.”

Alex-sama hugged me and gently returned me to the chair.

“…Is that okay?”

“Yes, that’s right. I just moved the magic too quickly for a moment. Next time I will do it a little slower.”

“Next?”

Alex-sama asked, and I nodded.

“Considering the natural recovery amount of magic, I think it will be one a day.”

“One a day?!”

Senni shouted.

“Spending my annual salary every day?!… Oh, my God!”

Surprised, Senni hit her head on the wall again.

“Please stop every day. I’m worried about your health.”

I’ll start with every other day first. I’ll try to put in the magic slowly while Alex-sama is at work.

“Senni, make sure you keep an eye on Vilhelmina when she is touching the device and afterwards.”

“Okay!”

Senni replied with a smile and whispered “Got it.” She then bent down and reached into the storage area under the floor.

“Will you be celebrating the completion of the device or something?”

“It’s a magic element crystallization device.”

She took out a wine bottle. It was a good thing I bought it just in case something like this happened.

There are no fancy wine glasses, but Senni pours the scarlet liquid into a sake cup goblet.

I also gave her a sake cup.

“I can have one too?”

“Of course.”

“Um, let’s celebrate the completion of the magic element crystallization device.”

“The magic element crystallization device sound’s boring name.”

Senni said with a smile. Fufu, indeed.

I nod and Alex-sama is puzzled.

“What?!”

“Do you have anything… A pretty name.”

Alex-sama thinks with a cup in hand, in response to Senni’s words.

“Cute? Hmm… Mina #1?”

“Oh my God, Master, you’re the best!”

Saying so, they burst out laughing. Eh, Mina… really?

“Not Alex-sama’s name, but mine?”

“… because it wouldn’t be complete without you. Do you dislike it?”

“The Master can’t call the Madam by nickname, but it’s the best to put it on a tool!”

Senni pats Alex-sama’s shoulders firmly. Alex-sama’s face turns red.

Fufufu.

“Alex-sama, if that’s what you want to call me, that’s fine.”

Alex-sama covers his face with his hand, stiffens for a while, then slowly raises his head to say.

“Mina.”
