1285 Episode 1285



"...I didn't think this would be the first one I could do."

 When Ray sees what's in front of him, he tells Azimov that he's the one who made it.
 "When I was in the inn, Azimov came and was told that he had made the magic item he had been asked for, and I was forced to bring it in, which was unexpected to Ray."
 I thought Slapnil's shoes were finished, for it was in a kiln.
 ...yes, it was a magic item Ray had asked Azimov to cook when he was camping.
 I asked for it long after Slapnil's shoes, but I didn't expect this to be the first to do it...

"Srapnil's shoes are much more complete than they were. It's not going to end so easily. ...Of course I'm confident in my skill. I'll do something about it by spring, so don't worry."
"Oh, I believe you,"

 As far as Ray knows, Azimov is an alchemist of the highest caliber.
 I had a strong personality habit, but I had no complaints about my alchemy skills.
 In fact, he created a very high-performance magic item called the twilight spear, using a number of rare materials.
 Not many people would look at it and say Azimov has a bad arm.

"Really, it's pretty good at making your Slapnil shoes, though they're not very expandable, they're designed to be very precise. It's nothing like Slapnil's shoes, even if they have the same name."
"Is that so?"
"Oh, to be honest, it's almost impossible for me to make Slapnil shoes from scratch."

 Words that exuded a bit of frustration, but even admired the skill of the alchemist -- Esta Noor -- who made Slapnil shoes.

(I don't know that Esta made it... well, even though the name is known, it doesn't mean that many of the items are in circulation.)

 As a member of the Zepail family, he was an alchemist of the greatest skill in the golden age when many of the so-called geniuses, demons, exceptional talents, and brilliant talents were gathered.
 For that reason, Esta Knowle was a well-known name, but it was very rare for Esta to actually create magic items.
 ...what will Azimov react to when he finds out that many of Ray's magic items are handmade by Esta?
 Ray was a little concerned about it, but he decided that if he said it, there would be a lot of trouble, and now he keeps his mouth shut.
 Instead, Ray turns to the kiln in front of him.
 It is about one meter tall and has a semicircular shape like a kamakura.
 The width is over two meters, but not three meters.
 It wasn't something you could carry around, though it wasn't.
 It occupies a large part of the room and, of course, can't get out of the door.
 It's entirely Ray's thing with the mystery ring.

(Well, I'm the only one asking for this, so it's only natural for me to do it exclusively.)

 If you're in a group like a merchant force, you can have a simple cooking utensil... no, if you're an adventurer or a cook.
 Few people actually carry around cooking utensils that interfere with their requests, but I know Ray is still such a peculiar...or an adventurer who is particular about cooking.
 No one would carry a kiln of this size with them.

(In the first place, a kiln of this size is not something to be carried around, but something to be used in a shop.)

 While Ray was deeply impressed looking at the kiln, Azimov continued to explain Ray's Slapnil shoes.

"Well, you know, Slapnil's shoes have magical circulation and working speed... hey, Ray. Are you listening?"
"No, I haven't. It doesn't make sense to tell me the structure of magic items, let alone how to use them, but it's not necessary, is it?"
"Well... that's a boring fellow." You should learn more about the magic items you use. Your magic items are worth it."

 Azimov seemed a little dissatisfied, but he probably judged Ray to have a point. After a small sigh, look at the kiln in front of you, not at Slapnil's shoes.

"This kiln ... is not named in particular, and it is made of silver lion material, but it is not known as much as possible." But it's designed for Ray to use."
"It's supposed to be used by me? I asked for it, so it's only natural, right?
"Well, that's the case," This is a kiln run purely by magic. You can use magic stones if you want, but they're not fuel efficient. It is only by starting with magic that we can demonstrate the capabilities of this kiln."
"...Why are you doing such a trouble again?"

 Of course Ray intended to use magic instead of magic to start the kiln himself.
 There is no problem in that regard, but just because Ray has one doesn't mean he's the only one who uses this kiln.
 In the first place, one of the reasons Ray wanted to build the kiln was because he'd put on a party in the spring.
 That's because I thought I could use pizza and other dishes when camping at a party.
 But why is it supposed to be activated by magic?
 Ray is going to be used from the start.
 Dark elf marina has enough magic.
 Vichela's magical powers were raised by the affair of the Silver Lion...

(Huh? Oh? Then, isn't there any problem? You have to use magic stones for Bune, but you can't leave the kiln to Bune alone.)

 Of course, Ray could not tell if Azimov had built this kiln on the premise that he would use magic to that extent, but it was true that there was no problem at all when he looked at the results alone.
 Moreover, if it is assumed to be operated with magical powers, if someone sees Ray's kiln and wants it... many people will eventually give up.
 However, if you don't have an item box like Mistilling, you can't carry around a kiln like this, so there's a problem with how many people would like to have it.

(If you had a carriage, it would be possible to load the kiln on the loading platform and use it as a mobile kiln... but considering the temperature of the kiln, the carriage itself would be in danger if you didn't do so.) There is a possibility if it's a cheap item box.)

 Ray couldn't tell if Azimov had thought it all out and made it this way.
 However, it is true that they are no longer targeted by people who want a kiln, and it is safe to say that they are saved.

"Also, the ability of this kiln is one of the reasons why it has come to be operated only by magic."
"... the ability of a kiln? Is there anything else besides cooking?"
"Oh, this kiln can automatically analyze the ingredients of the food inside and bake it at the appropriate temperature."
"...a very bright kiln,"

 I thought it was just an ordinary kiln, but I guess it was Azimov or something that gave me a solid over-specification.

"Well, I got the help of the full house. However, all I could do was to deal with general dishes."

 Ordinary food?, Ray quizzes.

"Oh, to put it simply, it's just the food that the chef at the Manjotei knows. So, if you're cooking something from another country, you have to see how much you cook yourself. Besides, all I can do with my current technology is to cook the heat as usual."
"It's not a normal dish, but a normal cooking?"

 When Ray says something suspicious again, Azimov nods slightly frustratedly.

"Unlike ordinary dishes, the heat used by professional chefs when cooking really delicious food is very special. Well, this is the first time I've ever heard of this kiln, and I'm not so familiar with it."

 Tell him so, Azimov explains what he had shown him from the chef... Dischott.
 This kiln can do nothing wrong with the general way of cooking.
 But... the chef needs to see the fire for each dish to get it to its best.
 The temperature of the kiln varies slightly depending on the ingredients, even if they are the same ingredients and the same size.In addition, it is impossible to cook only the surface well and leave the inside a little more cooked than... without proper skill.
 In other words, the dishes made in this kiln can be as good as average, but that's it.
 To cook above average was to cook by yourself.
 Azimov must have been frustrated to have been shown that his skill could not.
 However, there may be a problem with Slapnil's shoes, and he could not concentrate only on the kiln.

"Ah... well, I want to eat delicious food, but it's not that easy to cook the kind of food that a professional chef makes."

 Contrary to Azimov's frustration, Ray's permission to do so easily is probably due to Ray's perception that a kiln is convenient.
 That's because if you want to eat a dish made by a professional cook like Dischott, you just have to buy a freshly made dish and put it in a mistling.
 Putting the food directly into the mistling costs extra money, such as the cost of tableware and pots.
 But it was also true that Ray had nothing particularly to do with the price.
 That's why Ray doesn't feel frustrated enough for Azimov to be frustrated.
 Of course, I would be happy if I could eat delicious food.

"Look, Ray," Eventually, even professional chefs will make magic items kilns with surprising performance."
"Well, that's enough for me. It's helpful just to adjust the temperature in the kiln automatically depending on the food. Besides... it doesn't look like there's a place for firewood, and you don't need it, do you?"
"Oh, they use magic and magic to generate heat directly."

 The words make Ray look a little happy.
 Of course there is a lot of firewood in the mystery ring.
 However, the amount of firewood used when camping differs greatly from that used in kilns.
 That's a few times more... if you're not good at it, that's more.
 It's no problem to collect or buy firewood, but if you don't have to do anything troublesome, it's human nature that you don't want to do as much as possible.

"That alone will save you enough." and I shall be glad if you will put on Slapnil's shoes as soon as possible."
"Of course. That's more important, because it's the same here. This kiln was quite enthusiastic, but it has a strong meaning of a change."
"...it's just a request, so I'd be glad if you didn't say you had a change."

 Ray seemed a little dissatisfied, but I understood that there was no point in saying anything more given Azimov's character.
 I think it would be better for Ray to place importance on Slapnil shoes...
 As Azimov, who was originally free, thought it would be useless for Ray to say something.

"Are Slapnil's shoes really okay?"
"Oh, I'll finish it by spring for now. That's absolutely true."

 If you're going to go that far, Ray doesn't ask any more.
 I knew Azimov was confident in his skills as an alchemist, and I knew he was a reliable alchemist.
 It means, however, that it cannot be trusted except by alchemy.
 In fact, Azimov would not have been able to make a decent living without Pamidor's help.
 ...though it was not surprising how Azimov had lived before, considering that Pamidor had settled in Gillum to a degree comparable to Ray.
 Anyway, Ray succeeded in getting a kiln of high-performance magic items.
