Chapter 273 Part 2
「What are you doing, Keith」
「Oh, it’s good to see you」
Reinforcements have arrived.
It’s master.
Master’s Metal Skin too.
Me?
I’m doing my best to prevent the ude hishigi juji gatame. [1. TN Note: Judo move, sometimes referred to as the Cross Arm Lock]
How did this happen.
Master’s Yaksha is summoned and peels Juna off.
Juna-san?
She’s quiet.
You’re obviously pretending to sleep, right?
You were clearly going for my arm until just a second ago, right?
A scary person.
「Master, would you cease with the fooling around please」
There’s no reply.
She’s still pretending to be asleep.
「So, what’s with you? Will you be participating in the fighting competition?」
「No, I’m not participating. I just have an appointment to watch the game, and meet with some people」
「An appointment, huh. Then it can’t be helped」
「The meeting is the day after tomorrow. I have time today and tomorrow」
「I see. I’ll want to take a look at your summoned monsters later」
「Okay」
「But I want to prioritize my work. I want you to help me. Can I ask you to make empty bottles again?」
「Sure」
「Play with meee」
Juna-san murmured.
You are awake after all aren’t you.
Master ignores it.
Um.
Even if you dump her on me, I still don’t know what to do about it.
「Well, there are a fair number of empty bottles from the Guild. Don’t push yourself too hard」
「Okay」
「So how are we gonna play?」
「Master, at least until the evening you have to make potions」
「Then let’s play after that!」
It’s hopeless.
You can’t win against a drunk.
It’s my first time in ages making bottles.
It wasn’t urgent, so recently I haven’t done it.
With Quick Recreate I make one after another.
There’s no particular delay.
The quality is also decent.
They’re mostly Quality C, and some Quality C+ are also mixed in.
Feels good.
Both Master and Juna get to work, starting with Mana Potions.
By the way.
Juna is drunk, right?
Certainly, she is drunk but.
While complaining incessantly she’s still helping out.
It might just look that way because Master’s Metal Skin is also helping, but the production rate hasn’t fallen.
Is she really drunk?
No, there’s no doubt that she stinks of alcohol.
《【Glassmaking】Level Up! 》
The time is 5:20 pm.
I levelled up in the middle of work!
It’s nice to have this kind of simple but also fun work.
It’s been a while since I made bottles.
The process of things being created is interesting in itself.
It feels like it should be boring, but I never seem to get tired of it.
Let’s increase the pace and continue working.
From here on I switched from mana potion bottles to regular potion bottles.
It sounds like I should make a pretty significant number.
Well, even if I make extras there shouldn’t be a problem.
All I have to do is put them in an《Item Box》.
But just how much of a shortage is there?
The time is?
6:10 pm.
Master’s Metal Skin is probably making food, and it’s starting to smell good.
《【Alchemy】Level Up! 》
The level up came at a good time.
Did I make it in time for dinner?
「Then let’s eat. I’d like to hear some stories as well」
「Okay」
「Can we play after that?」
「Master has to go with me to Remut tonight」
「I made a boring promise」
Juna’s attitude changes suddenly.
I can hear her clicking her tongue.
「Gerta aside, that Legrand is going to collapse you know?」
「Ehh」
The meal became slow with conversation.
Master and Juna have to go to Remut tonight.
Our reunion’s going to be cut short.
Well, eating while talking isn’t bad either.
「A Dragon, you say?」
「Yes」
「Good job staying safe」
When he heard about the Bronze Dragon I encountered, he seemed to understand.
Apparently they’re not that aggressive.
That’s right.
They.
There are multiple Bronze Dragons.
「Well, just don’t fly too high in the sky」
「How would Master deal with it?」
「I’d run away?」
「Ah」
Juna is just grinning.
You’re out of alcohol, right?
「Well, would you show off your summoned monsters for the first time in a while?」
「Okay」
「I wonder what kinds of cute little guys are showing up?」
I definitely think Juna’s atmosphere has changed.
Similar to someone.
It’s Adele.
I could predict the scene of her hugging the summoned monsters.
The garden of Master’s house is pretty large.
There are several Flashlights illuminating it. [TN Note: Spells, not actual flashlights]
My summoned monsters were also gathered.
Volff, Zangetsu, Obsidian, Oma, Bunraku.
Juna-san immediately locks onto Volff.
In an instant she’s hugging his neck and rubbing her cheek against him.
Just as I predicted.
Forgive me, Volff.
I don’t think I can defy that person either.
I’ll give you Fighting Bull meat later.
Using the remaining 4 slots, I swap between Summon Monsters and show them one after another.
Master just nodded, but several times he seemed to ponder.
What do they have in common?
Summoned monsters born of Fuse Monsters.
Shishiku, Telomere, Kyokuya, Modulus, and Raibun seemed to be examined in detail.
Speaking of which, I guess Oma was the same.
「It seems that the order has been reversed, but it might be a good opportunity to give this」
「What?」
「This. Can you take out one Mana Crystal?」
「I don’t mind」
「Umu」
I take out a mana crystal from the《Item Box》.
Master has a thick cloth in his hand.
It looks like a carpet.
No, I think it is a carpet.
It was pretty big.
「this is?」
「It’s a cloth for Alchemy Repairs. Well, I’m going to make it into one now at least」
「Oh! Aurnier-chan is kind!」
「Master, leave off the chan」
Master reins in Juna’s banter with his gaze.
However, it seems to have no effect.
「Well, it is a hassle to make Magic Circles and Magic Squares every time just for restoration」
「I just thought it was necessary, okay?」
He lays a carpet on the ground and places the mana crystal in the center.
In that position he kept his hand held out.
「Keith, put your hands on both sides of mine and squeeze it」
「Okay. Is this good?」
「Umu」
And then.
Master closes his eyes.
At the same time, there are Magic Circles and Magic Squares around us.
What’s going on.
The Magic Circle and Magic Square gradually grew smaller and burned onto the surface of the cloth.
Yeah.
It’s pretty.
「There we go. It’s easy to use. All you have to do is place the object in the center of this cloth and use alchemical repair」
「I see」
Let’s take a look at the Alchemy skills.
There it is.
There’s a Repair option under Fusion Identification.
Wait, the options Magic Infusion, Magic Absorption, Stamina Recovery, and Magic Recovery have also been added.
「If you use it like that, it’ll consume your magical power」
「Eh?」
「If you hold a magic stone or magic crystal, that’ll be prioritized and have its magic power consumed」
「Roger」
「You can also store magical power in the cloth in advance. For that, use Magic Absorption」
「I see」
「Magic Infusion can create magic items from this spell cloth」
「Magic items?」
「Yes. But you need a catalyst and a substitute item. You should try out various combinations yourself」
「Sorry?」
「Come on Aurnier-chan, aren’t you being too tough?」
The teacher gives Juna an indignant look.
Juna is?
The spitting image of indifference.
「I wanted to hear a little more detail, but it’ll have to wait for the next opportunity.」
「Are you leaving already?」
「Ara ara, see you later!」
「Master Juna, it’s a problem if you don’t accompany me.」
Juna made a face like she was trying to click her tongue so that Master couldn’t tell.
I swear, this person.
She’s supposed to be my Master’s Master, but it’s easy too get a false impression just because she looks young.
According to the story I heard while eating, there’s a visitor different from the one the other day.
Apparently the guild chief is struggling to respond.
In fact, apparently Juna is supposed to be the main person dealing with visitors.
Can’t have that, huh?
She’s avoiding her job.
「Then, leave the travel to me!」
Juna casts a short spell.
What appeared?
Sleipnir.
It’s a huge eight-legged horse.
And that Vampire Duke.
Juna straddles Sleipnir, and behind her Master also seems to be on board.
Master as well has the Demon Fox and Pyro Chimera on his shoulder, who seem to be going with him.
I wonder what the escort is.
I get the feeling that Vampire Duke alone is enough.
What do I currently have summoned?
Volff, Telomere, Abyss, Oma, and Keimei.
Vampire Duke clearly seems to be superior.
Volff, Telomere, and Oma are acting strange.
They’re clearly in fear.
The Vampire Duke?
Just follows Juna-san like a butler.
It gave us, no, me, a light bow and spread bat wings on his back.
No, it just turns all the way into a giant bat.
「Then, let’s meet at Remut?」
「You can use the equipment and supplies here as you like, okay?」
After saying that, he also told me like an afterthought.
「Oh that’s right, if possible, it would help if you made a few more empty bottles.」
That’s…
Is it safe to call it not a request, but an order?
Those who don’t work should not eat.
Well, that’s okay.
I have no plans tonight and tomorrow.
I’ll make them.
I think I can make a number that’ll surprise Master.
