Chapter 20: Now Ashamed

The progress of my investigation was surprisingly smooth, I could understand the magic circles, to the point that I could apply it effectively in different aspects. Until now, I, who couldn’t manufacture even simple items like a light lamp magic device or an ignition lighter magic device, am now able to manufacture artifacts at the level of those from ancient ruins and dungeons.

On bestowing magic on armor and weapons, aside from the dwarven country Gnomstoll Kingdom, I might be able to make magic weapons... No, since I’ve already been successful at simple Enchants, with the research I did on magic circles and magic letters and symbols in the library yesterday, and my analysis on the magic formulas of ancient magic finished, I might surpass the dwarves before long if I practice.

As for my current status, because I haven’t been fighting, my level hasn’t risen even once.

Aside from Magic Perception and Magic Power Manipulation which I constantly practice, the Skill level of Time-Space Attribute Magic and the Job level of Magic Bestower have gone up.

Magic, whether it be alchemy or attribute magic, fails to invoke advanced magic if your skill level is not enough, so training everyday is essential.

After changing to the Magic Bestower and practicing enchanting, it was clear to see that constructing magic formulas became much easier. Given how that sense grows with each increase in job level, I could tell in an instant that it is quite a lot even though the numbers of the job correction doesn’t show.

「Ah, Thomas-san, good morning.」

The one who greeted me is the Papeck Company’s head clerk, Thomas-san. I felt relief as Thomas-san guided me into the building.

Led into the same room as the other day, I drank tea while waiting for Thomas-san.

「Apologies for the wait.」

Knocking on the door, Thomas-san entered.

「Papeck-san will be here shortly, so please enjoy your tea while waiting.」

I thanked Thomas-san for the referral to the Golden Wheat Pavilion, and we chatted about my impression of my visit to the library.

「Thank you for waiting.」

Papeck-san entered the parlor.

「What business do you have with me today?」

Standing up to greet one another, Papeck-san then asked about the matter. As expected of a president that handles a company, he manages time efficiently.

「The truth is, I was planning on renting a place like a workshop or something similar where I can work on various things, but because I don’t know anyone in this town, even though I think it might be an annoyance, I would inquire and consult with Papeck-san.」

「Oh my, I have been careless. This Papeck is ashamed, too ecstatic about the handpump, he was. A workshop is a matter of course for Takumi-sama’s production, and yet..., I am very much ashamed.」

Papeck-san, aware that a workshop is necessary for my activities in this town, seemed to have forgotten. I myself had thoughtlessly forgotten, so I have no words.

「No, I had also forgotten.」

「The workshop is for Takumi-sama’s solitary use, correct?」

「Yes, since I think my smithing and alchemy are unique, I can’t hire someone who could do the same so I’d like to work alone for now.」

I said so and Papeck-san pondered over it.

「......Hiring someone unskilled would be risky, wouldn’t it. That having been said, it would be troubling if Takumi-sama can’t concentrate solely on production. Someone from our place...... is not possible.」

「President, in my humble opinion, wouldn’t purchasing a slave be acceptable?」

Towards Papeck-san who was muttering to himself, Thomas-san dropped a bombshell.

Well~ it seems I’m the only one who thought that about “slave”.

「That’s true. That might be the best option for Takumi-sama who has many secrets. No, it’s the only option at present.」

To hide my use of Alchemy and Smithing Magic, Papeck-san and Thomas-san are saying that it is best to buy a slave to protect that secret. But I have one thing I must say before that.

「Papeck-san, and Thomas-san too, I came here today for a referral on a workshop where I could do my production in though............」

「M-my apologies. Again, I have become excited and digressed.」

「Then, I will list down properties suitable for Takumi-sama’s workshop from the ones that the company manage, and guide you to them.」

「Please do.」

As expected of the Papeck Company, they even have real estates.

Thomas-san left to pick up the property files; Papeck-san had work; I was waiting for Thomas-san at the entrance of the company.

Garagaragara

Thomas-san turned the carriage to the front of the company.

「Now then, please get on, Takumi-sama.」

「Yes, please.」

Thomas-san drove the carriage to the first property.
