"After all, the best use for Lassen at the moment would be geological surveys, wouldn't it?"

"I think so. Mr. Lassen was more efficient than Mr. Ars Valka in activating magic in the ground. However, digging a hole can be done by human power if there is enough manpower. Instead, using magic power to search for the nature of soil and mineral veins in the ground may be a better way to utilize magic power in the current situation.

 For the time being, we show Lassen to his room and let him rest.

 In the meantime, I talked with Ai about Lassen's power.

 There are several things that Ai has found out through his various experiments.

 Among them, we agreed that the best way to utilize it right now would be to search for a vein of ore.

 Lassen, who was called a builder or a hole digger, was able to do various things with his magical power.

 However, his power has not been recognized so far, probably because of the limited amount of magic power he had.

 You don't have to be Lassen to dig a hole.

 It is said that they were only needed to shorten the construction period of a building, and that they were only needed to be present, but not necessary to be present to do the work.

 As an individual, he may have made a name for himself as a craftsman who worked fast.

 However, Ai's view was that Lassen's real greatness was in geological surveying.

 Ai was able to use his four wings to see the terrain from above.

 However, there was one piece of information that even Ai could not know.

 That is the underground and underwater.

 The four wings can move freely in the sky, but they are not able to investigate that far.

 With Lassen's magic power, it is easy to find out such information in the ground.

 By pouring magic power into the ground, we can grasp the state of the underground.

 It is said to be more efficient than Ars's brother, and can examine quite deep into the ground with Lassen's existing amount of magic power.

 So far, they have been searching for underground water veins and bedrock.

 They were, in other words, for digging wells.

 The fact that they were able to dig wells accurately is said to be one of the reasons why they earned the nickname "hole diggers".

"Maybe I'll have them search for a silver vein. No, I don't mind if he digs for iron veins or something.

"Yes, that's right. But perhaps I can teach you how to use the culture of magic spells, Mr. Lassen. If we call it 'geological survey' magic, even if it leaked outside the Orient, there would be no immediate impact.

"Oh, I see. That's a good idea. I'm sure that the best way to use Lassen is to let him create magic rather than to let him use magic himself. It might be a good idea to let him create magic that is less likely to cause direct damage even if it spreads, and see if he betrays us in the meantime.

 We can't have them suddenly create a magic that creates a passageway in the ground, can we?

 Instead, it would be better if we could create a magic that would be useful and less harmful to us.

 Besides, it is true that we would be grateful if we could successfully find a silver mine.

 As long as the amount of silver we make is determined by the amount of silver we have, we will need silver no matter what.

 For this reason, we were now continuing to examine the possibility of reproducing Elle and her friends.

 However, the very existence of Shirogane who can use alchemy is information that should be hidden from the public.

 If the breeding is successful and the number of them increases, the amount of silver they possess will surely increase at an accelerated rate, but where they are getting it from will be questioned.

 In such a case, it would certainly be helpful to have at least one silver mine at some point.

 In fact, it would be good to be able to say that we are getting silver there, no matter how small the deposits may be.

 If possible, we should find at least one silver vein, and maybe an iron vein as well.

 Iron may be found to a certain extent even if we don't go that far.

"But then what should we do? Should we prioritize the spell culture work for magic for Lassen, or should we prioritize getting him out of the new Barca town to look for silver veins?"

"Yes, that's right. For the time being, let's ask for a spell culture. It is not too late to search for mineral deposits after gathering information from other people. I think it is not too late to have a mountaineer or someone who has many opportunities to go to places where people do not usually go look for mineral deposits, and once the approximate information is gathered, we can actually take Mr. Lassen to the site and conduct a [geological survey].

"Yes, that's right. I think that's a good idea. If we can make the spell work, we can have Lassen give the name to one of the orphans that Ai is teaching. They can go to the site."

 In that case, I will name them for Russen.

 And if Lassen names one of the orphans and manages his [naming], the possibility of uncontrolled spread of [geological survey] will be reduced.

 After concluding this from my conversation with Ai, I decided to teach Lassen how to create a spell culture so that he could create a spell to investigate the underground conditions.
