617 Episode 607: Training Anita and Mirko. Wuster sauce... what do you do?

Takeo and the others were making tea while they were seated in the square of the institute.

"I let Anita and Mirko do a lot of things, but stoned Aqua on Fire... they all seem to have a greater amount of magic when activated than normal.

Arkin tells Takeo.

"I knew that by watching... but you're still not like me.

Stone created by Anita and Mirko and stone sprinkled around it by Takeo... Takeo mutters in comparison.

Takeo had a big fist and Anita and the others were 50cm square sizes.

"By the way, you're going to do it tomorrow, right?

Takeo asks Arkin and Brooke.

"Yes.

Thought I'd make the march and the initial magic my daily routine.

Can I get you anything?

Brooke answers.

"No.

I wish you could leave stones at Anita and Mirko in three rows at the border between the forest and the square.

"Hmm... that's going to be an exercise in recognition when you aim.

Brooke, you want to try?

"Right...

At first it's something that starts at 10m and gradually extends to 30m, 50m, 100m, 150m, but I was wondering if I could try to make sure the basics are the same for both close and long distances?

But I wonder if it's a little hard for these kids right now to arrange exactly three rows of rocks the same size?

Brooke bothers.

"I don't want that much accuracy.

Because you just want to make the boundaries clear and I want to scatter stones between them and lay them down.

"Do you want this size?

"Yeah, I thought I'd sprinkle it during my morning walk.

And I want Mr. Arkin and Mr. Brooke to make a target.

"" Is it targeted?

"Yes.

450m and 1000m from the border with the woods...

Uh... it'll be hard to understand if you explain it with your mouth, so look, I'll write it on paper briefly tomorrow morning.

"Okay.

Arkin nods.

"Now, do you want to go back to the mansion?

What about Mr. Arkin and the others?

Takeo says as he cleans up his tea.

"We'll go a little further.

"Okay.

Shall we go, then, gentlemen?

"" Ha ha.

"Kiku.

Takeo and the others followed the square.

"Anita, Mirko.

As Lord Kitamizato instructed, we will now practice in stone.

"" Yes!

Arkin stands in front of Anita and Mirko and starts explaining.

"This exercise will be a 'use the same amount of magic every time' training and a 'activate it in a conscious place' training.

Pretty plain.

Repeat. Repeat. Same magic. Same amount of activation.

But it's fundamental.

Activating and creating some kind of magic every time is dangerous and unusable in battle when it's different in size.

So you need to activate hundreds, thousands of them repeatedly to remind your body.

"" Yes!

"Then me and Brooke will show you a sample.

I'll try to make it in three columns about the same size as the stones you're creating.

It may be difficult at first, but if you do it every day, you'll get used to it.

So why don't you take it off the trail there today?

Arkin and the others followed the square.

"I don't know..."

Bedford was stuck at his desk.

"Oh, you're tired when you use a head you haven't used.

Bedford's wife laughs bitterly.

"Oh, are you alive?

"Well, you seem to be breathing. Ho ho."

Ralph and Low are laughing off "Ha ha".

"Um... I can't have five copies of Dear Kitamizato's copper coins..."

"I don't know because that's only Kitamizato-sama's ideal.

Conversely, if we're going to change the price, we need to do a decent downcheck.

That's why the winery guy in and out of Mr. Law told me the cost of the barrel.

"Ho ho, your daughter from Mr. Walt's was here.

That was a good time.

"But... well, I didn't expect to get 300ml barrels at about the same cost as a vial.

So... here's the vegetables and other ingredients... put this in every 300ml... 525 in barrels.

Put a profit on the cost and put in the contract fee for Master Kitamizato... divide this by 525 pieces... 12 copper coins is going to be the sale price.

Is this really gonna sell?

Ask Ralph and Low as Bedford writes a lot on the paper and goes.

"" Shira!

The two of you say it with dignity.

"What the... more intimate please..."

"I'm just advising on the contents of the contract.

"Ho ho ho, I'm container advice, right?

Bedford also needs to become a proprietor (...) soon.

"I thought it would be that easy!

Huh... can you sell it at this price?

"I knew you were worried.

Bedford, Ralph and Law turn their faces to those who spoke.

and there came Smith and Frederick and the clerk in charge of the Bureau of Finance.

"To Master Smith, Mr. Frederick!?

Bedford's wife is amazed.

"Ha... I heard the stores involved with Master Takeo are going to be tough...

Frederick, this is the truth, right?

"Yes, that's right.

And what's wrong with you?

"Ha... yes.

Actually, I gave you an estimate.

Bedford shows Smith and Frederick the calculations he made earlier.

"Hmm... 12 copper coins... considering the repayment of the Elvis family loan, you want 14 copper coins.

"Yes... it is.

I don't care how delicious you buy it at this price... "

"That's true.

I also feel a little expensive for the average household.

"... Hey, Frederick.

Smith squeaks, looking at the results of the rough estimate.

"What is it, Master Smith?

"Which way do I have to buy a barrel (...) of this?

"... I see you have that hand.

"Duh... what does that mean?

Bedford asks.

"No, I wouldn't be able to help at first, but I thought if I brought the barrel in until the barrel broke, if I let you in at the store, the cost of the barrel would fall out of the sale price.

What does Smith answer?

"" "Ah! I see!" "

and everyone is surprised and Bedford recalculates.

"... if it's just a takeover, it'll be 8 copper coins... will you buy this..."

"You should keep it here at 9 copper coins.

Then if you want to buy it in barrels, why not estimate it as selling it for 14 copper coins and then 9 copper coins if you want to take it off?

"Dear Smith, Dear Frederick.

What strategy will we take for the rest?

"What do you guys think?

"I was wondering if I could sell it to the tavern first, just like Mr. Law.

"Hmm... that's one thing, too.

What does Master Smith think?

"Mm-hmm.

Sure, selling to a liquor store would be reasonable as a way of selling it, but that's not what Takeo intended, is it?

Smith tilts his neck.

"Indeed, Master Takeo wants to sell it to everyone in the city.

Master Bedford's policy will take you a little while.

"Ahhh... then you just have to eat it at the store.

and Takeo and Alice were coming.
