109-103 The idea of ​​a magic tool suddenly

They were just about to reach the border with the St. Schuler Cooperative State in a day and a bit of time.

'Horses can go pretty fast if you don't have the feeling of pulling a carriage,'

I don't think I've ever seen a carriage with that much gravity reduction in my life.

'Right. But still, it only took me a day to get to the border, and I don't think I've ever felt a year so long before.

'That's how it is when you start to do something unfamiliar. Now, when you cross the border, you'll be heading left along the wall, won't you?

'Yeah. I've got the location right, and I'm pretty sure Dolan and Paula told me so.

'I wish there was a village or something nearby...'

Well, if not... and haha, there are a lot of demons over here too.

In front of us, a monitor lizard and a giant snake were blocking our path and threatening each other, but when they noticed us, they began to warn us.

''Maybe that's what the canyon to the left of this one does.

Next to Lionel, who was analyzing it so calmly, I took out the Holy Dragon's spear from the magic bag and held it up.

''Well then, I guess I'll fight with the spear on the horse as per the lecture. Please, Forenoire.

I'll take the first spear again.

From the side where he was talking, there was a cat-beast man who was running through at quite a speed.

''I'm bored, so I'm entering the race.''

As we looked at each other, me and Lionel followed Ketty into battle.

Grabbing the reins with my left, I changed my spear to a two-handed one the moment we passed the demon, and secured the horse between my knees tightly.

I concentrate on the demon's only point and poke it with my spear so that Forenoir can read the opponent's attack.

Even though the timing is perfect, as expected, it's much harder than fighting with my own feet, and I pass by the demon without being able to take it down.

And by the time I turned back, it was already after Lionel and Keti had slaughtered it.

''Bullel.''

After patting a slightly disappointed Forenoire with an apology, I return to them.

''Ketty's proud of her agility, so I understand, but why is Lionel so...''

''This was still a general, you know. I started jousting when I was ten years old, so I already have over thirty years of experience (career).

Lionel was not embarrassed, he looked a little smug and then laughed.

'Master Lionel has never been caught unawares on horseback, Nya.

Keti's quick movements led to a single concentrated stab through the brains of several monitor lizards, burying the demons.

'Okay so why did you jump out of the carriage?

'I wasn't busy, Nya. I was zit the first day, but today I came to ask permission to go outside.

''........maybe you got tired of listening to the magic discussion?''

'No...no...no. The strange spell is already going on and on and on. I'll get psychologically attacked if I stay there.

Why didn't you bring Keffin in instead of him?

"I'll be watching Kefin. I'm running a car and my eyes are looking in the distance.

That being said, I looked at Kefin, and he was indeed looking at me with a faraway look in his eyes.

'Where's Doran?'

He's happy that his grandson has a friend, and he's being a total bellhop.

I won't change the pace, okay?

No problem. If you're tired, go back and do a little coaching or go back to the demon world.

I allowed Ketty to stay outside as the tension slowly diminished.

We rode for an hour or so, and when the road came into view, the canyon began to slowly pull away and the forest began to open up to our left.

'There are some demons that live in these woods and such, so we'll have to be careful.

Well, this is already the St. Schurmur Cooperative State, so there won't be any demons that powerful.

I have a problem with that because it's not an absolute...

The demons are not only on the ground.

Sometimes there is a surprise attack from the sky, and sometimes the demons appear from underground, so you can't rest your mind.

That's where I came up with the idea.

If I had a monster detector that could tell me what the demons are, I wouldn't have to worry about it so much, would I?

I asked if I could make that during my lunch break and the three of them froze.

'I see that's the way to go!'

"The genius of the spark!

If you can do that, maybe we can get people to live without fear of demons.

The three of them started to say that, and from there, a lot of jargon flew around, and they were completely relegated to the mosquito net.

''........It seems that it wouldn't be surprising if some countries would eventually use it for military purposes.

Lionel muttered to himself.

'Still, I suppose that depends on who uses it, Nya.

Keti gives a faraway look and looks ahead.

'We'll prove to you what Master Luciel is trying to make for peace.

Kefin told me that as he made a fist.

I hadn't thought about military use or anything like that at all, I was left behind by Lionel's idea, but this is where I finally got a reboot.

'But I didn't expect Doran to be able to cook,'

Doran, who was supposed to be discussing magic tools at my mutterings, comes next to me before I know it and tells me why.

''I've made a lot of effort to raise Paula well,''

'I see ... so that's why Paula never learned to cook and became a grimoire engineer.

I'm sorry, but I've only had a few regrets.

They're doing a little bit of that.

''Well it looks like they're going to develop a magical tool that will cook on its own when you add vegetables to it.

"? I knew you were a genius with a spark!

We'll definitely have to build it!

In fact, Lisian couldn't cook either, so their bite was even more awesome than before.

''Do you have a plan?''

Any little detail would be appreciated.

'What?

It's a bit different than that, but if you can rapidly freeze a dish and then release the water under pressure, you might be able to make some kind of emergency food that can be put back in hot water.

Even now, when you make dried meat, you use salt and spices to prevent it from spoiling and then dry it for soups and other dishes, so if the technology can be established, you could make a delicious dish just by putting it back in hot water.

I don't know if I can recreate it in this world by explaining the freeze-dried foods I saw on TV in my previous life, but I suggested to the two of them that it was worth a try.

'Demon detectors and preserved food.......after all, genius......or.......'

Paula, we're going to have to bring our skills together to build it up here.

'All right. Even if you can't cook, just pour hot water over it and you're cooking. It's mankind's dream.

It's going to change the world.

They shook hands with each other, exchanging a firm handshake, and began discussing magic tools again.

When I was released there, Lionel and the others had a surprised look on their faces as well.

''........What?''

Everyone was staring at us too closely, so I decided to ask them anyway.

''To use your miraculous light at such a young age to come up with an idea that would keep people from attacking you with demons, and to conceive of a magical tool that can preserve your food for a long period of time...''

Lionel's voice was different than usual, and his voice was gradually getting quieter as he went to the end of his words.

'I'd like to have one when it's finished at some point, Nya.

Ketty laughed absently, because it was just as I imagined it would be.

'I'd love to hear all sorts of ideas for weapons and armor, too.

Dolan wanted an idea for some interesting concept in the forge.

''..........''

Finally, only Kefin was staring at us with hot eyes.

I'm sorry, but I don't care.

What?

He replied with a straight face, so apparently that's not what he meant.

''Well why are you looking at me so much?''

'Well no, I was just realizing that I've got one goal in mind.

...Target.

I'm glad I was wrong, because a lot of things were sending shivers down my spine.

'Okay then. Good luck.

Yes, sir.

Kefin nodded happily.

We finished our lunch break with these chit-chats and resumed our movement towards Rockward, a city where the techies gathered.
