After being transferred to another world I became a magical - 92 Episode 91 Resurrection and Orihalcon

“What is the use?

I asked, hoping that he wouldn’t say something like “destroying neighboring countries”.

But Mr. Intiaze’s answer was completely unexpected.

“Have you ever heard of the metal orichalcone?

Orihalcon. It’s probably one of the most famous metals in fantasy.

In general, it ranks higher than mithril, and is considered a rare and expensive metal. But in this world, I’ve never even heard of it, let alone seen it.

I wonder why that name comes up here.

“I know the name, but I’ve never seen …….

“I’m sure there are few people who have seen it. The only existing orichalcon in Japan is used in a dagger that is a national treasure. There are not many people who even know its name. I’m not sure what to make of it, but I think it’s a good idea.

“Like mithril, it’s refined.

I can’t think of any other reason why a flame like that would be required for metal.

I don’t know how it works, but it seems that magical metals are difficult to refine.

That’s true. Refining orichalcone requires a tremendous amount of firepower. It might be possible to do so with that magic tool.

Using that violent firepower for refining?　It seems endlessly dangerous. ……

Isn’t that pushing it too far?

That’s where the engineers come in. We can’t make this kind of magic tools, but making devices to utilize them is our specialty. I’ll take care of it.

The Kaede Chamber of Commerce does not specialize in making machines.

We don’t have any know-how or experience, but we just had the materials and ideas, so we forced ourselves to make them.

It’s not surprising that they have the power to control dangerous things, since they are a merchant association that deals with magic tools for battle.

It’s a great idea, but it’s not the only way.

I’ve never seen a magic tool that can produce firepower comparable to this.

If you throw it into lava, it might reach a certain temperature, but it would be difficult to extract the metal with it.

The most common method is to apply the ore to a sublime dragon’s bracelet. You can only make a few grams in a short amount of time, but it’s the most efficient way.

…… This was an unexpectedly violent method.

If you can make a pet sub-dragon, you can make a target, but I’ve never heard of such a thing.

In other words, he must have thrown the ore into the air during the battle, where the dragons’ breaths could reach.

I felt I understood why the orichalcon was not used.

Is there a more gentle way?

There is a way to put the ore on top of a pile of magic stones and cover the surrounding area with hundreds of flame mages, heating them all at once. This method is not very powerful, and only about 0.5 grams of ore can be produced with 300 magic tools, but it is a safe way to produce orichalcon. …… These are the only two methods that have been put to practical use.

It was even crazier than I expected. I don’t know how you made the dagger.

The reason why they pile up magic stones to make a foundation is because they can’t make a foundation that can withstand that much firepower for a long time by any other method.

Even when the demons were obliterated by the fire, only the magic stones remained unchanged.

So this firepower may not be in vain.

Yes, that’s right. Of course it can be used for cultivation, but I think Orihalcon is more important.

It can also be used for cultivation.

You can use it for cultivation, but I think it’s more important.

Well, they are probably left untouched for a reason.

By the way, what kind of metal is this orichalcon?

It’s the strongest metal there is. The dagger, a national treasure, has a blade only about 0.5 mm thick, but it is said to have sliced through a dragon without spilling a single blade. …… The dagger itself is too small to do any effective damage, though.

It will be interesting to see if it can be mass produced.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find something that works for you.　If you can refine it, we can make a weapon for you.

“Of course I’ll sell it to you. I’m sure you can. ……

I’m sure you’ll be able to deal with the Kononsa Trading Company. The government doesn’t seem to want to interfere too much with Kaede Merchant Association.

Is that so?

“There was a time long ago when adventurers who achieved great things were involved in politics, but nothing good ever happened to them. Since then, it is said that the nobility and the state have avoided any direct contact with adventurers. Does this ring any bells?

…… Now that you mention it, I’ve never met anyone who could really be called a national figure, even when I’ve been involved in national disturbances.

I think there was always something between me and the country, whether it was a guild or another business association.

I hadn’t really wondered if it was because they wanted to prevent me from getting involved in politics.

Some people think that your case is fine, but conventions are hard to change. But conventions are hard to change, and I can’t say that there won’t be unavoidable circumstances.

If possible, I hope such a thing will never happen.

The country, the nobility, and so on seem to be a pain in the ass.

The nobles in particular give me the worst impression, since I can only remember Radomkos.

As for me, I don’t want to get involved. Politics and all that.

I’m sure the people of the country will be relieved to hear that.

“Well, if you get a chance, I’d appreciate it if you’d let them know.

It’s not good for an amateur to get involved in politics. It’s best for the country and for me to stay out of it.

Yes, ma’am. I’ll let them know. By the way, can we start discussing the details of the purchase?

Of course not. I’m not going to participate in that because it’s Mercia’s job. Is there anything else?

There are many places where you can’t make a field. There are a lot of places where you can’t grow crops, but many of them are due to lack of water.

Water Magic: ……

I think I’ll give it a try.

After seeing the ship off back to the harbor, I headed back to the island alone.

Of course, it’s to see if I can’t get some attribute other than fire onto the magic stone.

The way to determine whether or not an attribute has been added is by appraising it.

I didn’t notice it because I don’t usually appraise magic stones, but it seems that magic stones with attributes can be identified by appraisal.

First, prepare a powerful water magic.

The power of the water, which has a diameter of about 30 centimeters, about the same as the magic stone, is gradually increased.

“……, that’s about right.

Try hitting a nearby tree with water that has been increased in power.

With a thud or a crack, the part of the tree that the water hit disappears.

After that, the remaining part of the tree fell down like a falling doll, and was blown away by the continuing spray of water.

The power was probably sufficient.

I fixed the magic stone with a warding spell to prevent it from blowing away, and hit it with the completed water magic.

After about 30 seconds of spraying, the water overflowing from the warding reached my feet.

As I looked, I saw that the poor island that had been burned, blown up, and blown away was now going to be washed off the surface by the water.

I felt sorry for it, so I stopped spraying water and flew over the muddy ground with my magic to collect the magic stone.

It might have been better to do it on the sea.

However, despite all the efforts of ……, there was no attribute on the magic stone.

I kind of expected that.

With the current magic, the amount of water would increase along with the magic power.

In other words, the concentration of magic power (or magic elements, but I can’t tell the difference) in the water does not change.

Water is a liquid, and its volume is almost unchanged.

This is the crucial difference between fire magic and water magic.

Because the volume of water increases with magic power, the density does not increase.

How about wasting your magic power on ……?

If you imagine the amount of water in a tap while releasing enough magic power to make such a release of water, you can create water with a high density of …… magic power.

Let’s give it a try.

It would be a pity to do it on an island, so I’ll move above the sea and activate the magic.

It’s really just a faucet, so there’s no need to use warding magic.

While wasting magic power, I poured water on the magic stone.

And after about ten seconds have passed.

“…… is ready.

The magic stone now has the water attribute.

Now you know that you can add attributes other than fire.

I looked at the list of my skills to see what I should try next.

I can’t help but be curious about the words …… “Recovery Magic”.

I wondered what would happen if I enhanced this spell.

It sounds interesting, but there is one problem.

Restoration magic doesn’t have any magic tools.

However, when I went through the item box, I found something that seemed to have potential.

It was a potion made from the extract of Zunana plant.

A potion made from a grass that grows in places with a lot of magical elements, it has an immediate and uncommon effect.

It is extremely likely that it has some kind of magical element to it.

It should be worth a try.

Hold the container of the potion with the lid open in your hand and cast a recovery spell at the potion with almost all your might.

Then the potion begins to glow.

I don’t remember using any light magic. Something strange is happening.

You stop the spell and appraise the potion that is still glowing faintly after you stop the spell.

The result says something like “restores 350,000 HP” or some such nonsense.

That’s strange.

I think something is wrong.

Like, mainly the digits.

For example, the order of magnitude is wrong. The HP of a Sublime Dragon can heal an entire body, and a Gargon can heal a thousand.

I can only say that you are crazy.

Anyway, it’s important to try it out to see how well it works.

I left the Green Wolf I used for the experiment at the Chamber of Commerce, so I flew to the demon realm.

Just as I landed, I spotted Galden.

“Is this the right one?

I approached him from above without being noticed, and swung my magic sword down while appraising him.

With a crisp sound, Galden’s head falls off.

His HP is instantly blown off, and he is reduced to zero.

I quickly sprinkle the potion I just gave him on it.

I wait for a few seconds.

…… A new head sprouts out of Galden’s supposedly zero HP.
