It Looks Like I Got Reincarnated in Another World

Chapter 85 - Plain Yet Relatively Important Training - First Part

Good morning everyone, this is Ren. Yeah, it’s been a while since I introduced myself like this.

Yesterday, I went to peep at the smithing workshop across the road, but… they chased me away at the front door. 𝐅𝐮𝐜𝐤 you!

They told me that since I rented a room at Arnold’s workshop, I somehow became a spy? Not to mention, they wouldn’t listen to me and immediately kick me out from their place.

Moreover, they threw salt at me at the end. In the midst of my rage, I was weirdly impressed that there was such a culture in this world.

However, I checked the sword that was displayed in the show window using [Appraisal] and [Analysis]. It was [Non-attribute magic LV 1]. The sword itself was ‘good quality”. It was a lot shabbier than I expected? But maybe they didn’t use the best sword to decorate the shop front? It would be bad if it was stolen. Then I guess they could make one or two levels higher than that? Hmm.

I won’t go to the commercial guild yet. I’m scared. I have to prepare myself to go inside. Yeah.

That’s why today I would finally make a mana sword. But before that, I had to recover my stamina. Since I was hungry, I would make breakfast today! When I explained that I wanted to be energized in my blacksmith training today, they easily lent me the kitchen.

With that, let’s get cooking! Today I will make a pork bowl. Not a beef bowl.

Raised cows were basically for nobles, so ordinary people couldn’t buy them. Beef monster meat was usually a high-class item. Therefore, I’m using a pig as a substitute. So I’m making an orc bowl.

First, I cooked a large amount of rice. Rice was stocked in the kitchen. It seemed like rice wasn’t very popular with the workers because they didn’t know how to cook it deliciously. I’m using my clay pot. I made a lot of them, so using one wouldn’t be a problem.

While watching the temperature and the clay pot, I cooked the meat on the top at the same time. I asked the landlady to chop a large amount of onion. She was watching how I made it from my side, but it would be impossible to reproduce the taste since I was using dashi and mirin. But she could make something similar, maybe.

Plus, pork bowl was very popular.

Now that I had filled my stomach, I should start experimenting with making a mana sword. Experiment! Experiment! It’s a fun experiment time! Yahoo!

That being said, let’s review the typical magic sword making as a start.

Only some blacksmiths or alchemists could make a magic sword and mana sword. As a blacksmith, I wouldn’t be able to make it since I didn’t inherit a secret technique. Thinking that way, did the alchemist seem to have lower skill acquisition thresholds?

I used my brain a little to think about how to make mana sword as a blacksmith master. Probably, they threw in magic stone or a part of a demon when they smelt the ore? Or maybe they toss ingot when they forge the sword? I guess it’s something like that.

Perhaps the secret was the mix ratio, what kind of material to use, and so on…?

For an alchemist, maybe it was the derivative of [Magic Tool Making] skill? I did it myself when I made a stove before, but I had to fill in a lot of things like the outline of the magic power circuits… I think. These things should be written in alchemy’s grimoire.

I tried to make it, but I couldn’t do either of them. So I forcefully made a magic sword with [Creation Magic]. The material was the sword that I forge on my own and my own magic power. But it would be bad if I failed, so I tried with a throwing dagger first. I had more than 100, and even if I failed, it would be alright. I guess.
