Spending my retirement in a game

chapter 37

Eisen looked at the cup he just made and slowly poured his mana into the crystal, then watched as the enchantment at the bottom slowly began producing clear water. Due to the small size of the cup, it quickly filled out and Eisen even spilled some over the side.

"This is going to take some getting used to." He muttered out and placed the cup against his lips and poured the water into his mouth. It tasted somewhat pure, and pristine, as if it just came out of a fresh spring. Overall, it was incredibly refreshing! Eisen gave the cup to Bree and smiled.

"That was a great idea, Bree! Something like this will be quite useful to have on travels." He exclaimed and Bree nodded with a smile.

"Mhm~! It really is! Enchanting is really useful in general~!"

"Yeah, it seems like it! So, what should I make next? The self-burning wood takes too long to make to just watch it burn away instantly... At least until my skill rank is higher, that's going to be a 'No'. How about the cooling air thing?"

"Sure~! Summer is approaching, and it can get suuper hot around here!"

Eisen nodded and smiled, and then grabbed another Mana Crystal. He was surprised, however. Eisen had no idea that the game world also had different seasons. If that was the case, even though it's probably still a while off, it might be a good idea to think ahead for winter. But first, Eisen would make something that expelled air.

Eisen grabbed another piece of paper and sketched out the enchantment he would need to carve. It was fairly simple, really. Once more there would be no specification needed, so the outer ring was a simple circle. The elemental symbols were those of Air, a triangle pointed outward that was cut in half horizontally.

For the center, Eisen thought that maybe a fan would be a good symbol, as the effect he wanted was supposed to simulate a fan's air output.

Seeing that even the circles in the sketch weren't perfectly rounded, Eisen sighed out loudly. How was he ever supposed to carve perfect circles if he couldn't even draw them with the support of the game?

However, Eisen knew failure well. You can't learning anything properly without failing at least once, after all. Back in the day, when he was just starting out learning different craftsmanships, he failed at it every time. The first shirt he sewed had one sleeve that was far longer than the other. And Eisen doesn't even want to think of the first time he messed up while cooking.

Eisen grabbed the needle and poured his Mana into it, before activating his A Dwarf's Hands Skill and placing the needle's tip against the Mana Crystal. Slowly, he started in the center and carved the four blades of the fan, surrounding them with a cirlcle. After that, he placed the alchemical symbol for air around the center six times and carefully carved circles around them as slowly as he could to make sure it becomes a perfect a circle as it could.

And to finish the enchantment off, Eisen carved another circle around the whole thing.

[Simple Air Enchantment]

[Quality - Above Average][Rank - 0]

[Description] A Simple air enchantment that has been carved into a mana crystal. It will only expel a weak stream of air no matter how much mana is put into the crystal.

[Effect] Expells a weak but focused stream of air when in contact with pure mana

Eisen nodded and grabbed the mana crystal, puring some of his mana into it. At first, he didn't even feel a difference to before, but when moving the crystal closer to his face noticed a soft flow of air. Right now it didn't seem very useful at all, but maybe once his skill ranked up he could make something with a stronger airflow.
