"What do you think, Gran? Do you think you can recreate the Nine-Tailed Sword?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Kuk. I have to say that it is very difficult at the moment, Mr. Ars.

"You can't?　There's no mistaking this flame ore for the material used to make the Nine-Tailed Sword, right?　There's no other unusual ore that can react to magic and burst into flames, and there's no other ore that can do that. ......"

"This flame ore is not the problem, that it is not, Mister Ars. The problem is in the characteristics of this flame ore, that it is.

"Characteristics?　What's the problem with the unusual characteristic of producing flames?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That is not the case. It is not the flame itself that is the problem, that it is not. But it is definitely not hard enough, that it is not. This flame ore is too soft, that it is, Mr. Ars.

"Soft"?　It didn't seem so when I held it in my hand, but isn't it hard? ......Oh, I see. If it's soft, that means it's not suitable for a sword.

"That's right, that it is. Even if you process the flame ore into a sword, it is useless as a weapon, that it is not.

"But there is a nine-tailed sword that can actually be used as a sword, Gran. It's not like it's impossible to make.

"......You are right, that you are, Mister Ars. I'm on fire, that I am. I will reproduce this nine-tailed sword no matter what it takes, that I will. So, I would like you to wait a little while for its completion, that I would.

"...... Hey, Gran. I'm sorry to interrupt your enthusiasm, but can I ask you a question?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What is it, Mister Ars? Do you have any idea about the manufacturing process, that you do? I am wondering if it is mixed with other metals, that I am wondering if the furnace temperature should be higher when processing the flame ore, or if it is ......."

"Uh, stop, Gran. You're getting too excited."

"Oops, I'm sorry about this, that I am. So what is it? Did Mr. Ars have something he wanted to ask me?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh. It's not a question, but a simple question. I mean, what is the point of reproducing the Nine-Tailed Sword?

"......What do you mean by that, that you can't find it?　Did not Lord Ars travel to Uruk in search of flame ore? I don't understand why he suddenly doesn't want the nine-tailed sword after he actually obtained the flame ore, that I don't."

"No, well, if you could mass-produce the magic sword called the Nine-Tailed Sword, I'd be very grateful. But we don't have to stick to that. The Nine-Tailed Sword produces an indefensible flaming sword. It may sound very strong but the knight who uses it can attack from a long distance. I don't think the attack power itself would be that different with or without the nine-tailed sword.

"But, however, Mister Ars. But, Master Ars... I have obtained the flame ore, even if you say so now, that I have done. Then, if you don't produce the Nine-Tailed Sword, won't all your hard work be in vain?

"That's not necessarily true. I'm trying to say that the use of the flame ore is not limited to weapons only. Researching the process of making the Nine-Tailed Sword is good, but let's make something else, Gran. I'm sure we can find many uses for it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Other uses, that is. ....... But how to use the ore that produces flames, that I am told. ....... Well, how about using this flaming ore to make a furnace, that it should, Mr. Ars? It might be interesting to build a furnace with a high temperature that has never been seen before, that it might be interesting to build a furnace with a high temperature that has never been seen before.

"Yeah, that's a good idea. That's what I'm talking about, Gran. That's what I meant. I'd like to make something with flame ore too, Gran. I'd like you to make something for me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is that what Mr. Ars wants me to make, that it is? This seems to be a difficult task. What is it like, that it is, Mr. Ars?

"The sky. Let's take to the sky, Gran. Let's make a flying machine out of flame ore."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What about ......?　Flying ...... in the sky?　What are you talking about, that you are, Mr. Ars? How can we fly with flaming ore, that we can? You are forgetting that it is a metal that produces flames, that you are not?"

"No, no, that's the idea, Gran. It doesn't need fuel to make a flame. I can make a balloon in no time."

　Me talking to Gran in Vulcania.

　I had brought back some flame ore from a place called Fox Valley in the old Uruk territory, which was even called the "phantom metal".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was talking with Gran about the flame ore.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Gran heard what I was talking about and looked at me as if to say, "What are you talking about?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, maybe Gran has never seen a vehicle with a flight function.

　But not me.

　When I saw the flame ore that produces flames in response to magic power, my first thought was not to use it for the Nine-Tailed Sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From my point of view, the flame ore looked like an energy generator.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A mass of thermal energy.

　Thermal energy.

　It is the greatest boon to human history in the world I know.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And it was the driving force that changed the world.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For example, the industrial revolution with the steam engine.

　But it was not the steam engine that I proposed to Gran this time.

　If we are looking for other uses for the flame ore than the nine-tailed sword, it would be better to have a greater impact at first glance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I thought so, and decided to create the impact of a person who can only move on the ground flying in the sky.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, the flame ore is mine, so I have no right to complain about what I use it for.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To be honest, it was completely my hobby.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, I taught Gran as much of the balloon's structure as I could remember, and we started making a balloon using the flame ore.
