Industrial revolution starting with the undead

thought error

"I see, you dare take specificity off the Devil's Square"

"Yes. Until now, I've been drawing demonic squares by blood, and I thought I could substitute this. Blood can only produce skeletons with my magic, but I was wondering if 10,000 people could use another material."

"... Sure, it sounds worth experimenting with. If that hypothesis is correct, it means I can make skeletons, ladies or even maids at the end of the day."

"Exactly, I don't think it's magic enough if it's Ianna"

"I'm kidding. Guess."

The words Eleonora answers to my hypothesis with a nod.

The content was generally favourable. The idea of painting the demon squares with another material in the first place exists in itself, but we haven't quite found a substitute for it. That's where I got my eye on mercury. I have never heard of this idea before because the material itself is so expensive that it cannot be easily experimented with.

But as it stands, it's only an empty theory on the desk. If this were to become a reality.

That is what allows mass production of skeletons in an instant.

Basically, as things stand, I'm the only one who can make skeletons.

That's because I do a good job of researching necromancy, mimicking the Art's magic ceremony on top of it, and activate it by the demonic squares I drew with my blood. The Devil's Square can only be activated by me, beyond the fact that blood is mine.

So when I needed it in large quantities, I was desperately building it with Chris' magic and saying hi to my magic sickness.

If this hypothesis is correct, I won't need the task of transferring Chris' magic to me.

In other words, I don't have to suffer from magic anymore. That's just great.

"Hmm, what's the candidate for that material?

"First...... I'm thinking with mercury. Since it is a fluid at room temperature, I thought it would be easy to draw as a demon cube."

"... I don't really recommend mercury. I read an old paper, but the effect is surface. Instead, you'll suffer from toxicity until you die."

"... Really?

"Oh. The boiling point of mercury itself is pretty high, but because it's liquid. It evaporates naturally. If you inhale naturally evaporated mercury, your lungs will suffer."

"Yes, Suka..."

To Eleonora's words, I honestly nod so.

Again, it's good to talk to you. Mercury is indeed a liquid, even though it is metal. It is logical that liquids evaporate naturally, and it is also common sense that mercury vapors are highly toxic to them.

It's certainly not strange to be addicted to mercury when you treat it in a poorly sealed room or something.

"Well, what material can I use..."

"Right. If I had enough money, I would have advised Mithril."

"... how do you draw the demon squares with it? I can't imagine how to melt the misrills and stick them together."

"You should mix the misthrilled powder with the molten tin (soot). The tin melting point isn't that high."

"Mm... I see"

Mithrill flour.

That's Eleonora's mansion - or the material I saw at the next magic store.

The nature as a catalyst was' cured ', but it is a good material to think of in terms of passing magic through. If you don't think about that amount being too expensive.

"Sure, Mithril powder might do it"

"Oh, I didn't know you had that much money."

"No...... before, I have increased it with Chris' replication magic. It was in your master's shop."

"Wouldn't it be a peculiar devil's cube for a lady if she increased it with her replication? I don't think that would be a substitute for 10,000 people."

"That's no problem. Actually, I tried magic as a catalyst, but it worked fine."

……

That's how I answer Eleonora's question.

When I had Mithril powder replicated before, it was a substitute for my magic. It won't mean it'll only be something Chris can handle.

Listening to me and Eleonora talk like that, Chris was leaning his neck.

"Melt the tin, mix a certain amount of misrilled powder and draw the demon cube on top of it... looks like you can"

"So far, you don't seem to have a problem. Although it is assumed that the tip of drawing the demon cube is the material that can receive the molten tin."

"A piece of marble or something... is that it? If it's not flat, it won't work for the Demon Square."

"It's not expensive."

Uhihi, and laughing eleonora.

If you were to draw demon squares with molten tin, you can't just do it to a carpet. It will be quicker for our house to be on fire before we draw the demon squares.

In that case, we must obtain what forms the basis for drawing the demonic cube. If that condition were to be "even tin temperature unchanged" and "planar," all I could think of was processed marble.

Let's talk about anything else.

"For one thing, I'll show my face to the Gnome Chamber of Commerce first thing tomorrow morning. In the meantime, I think you can buy the tin pretty cheaply...... the problem is the foundation"

"If the experiment goes well, let me make it too. I wanted to make a skeleton once."

"Okay."

……

With me like that, listening to Eleonora's conversation.

Damn, Chris pulled my sleeve silently.

"Hmm? Chris, what's up?

"Oh, my goodness. See, make it?

"Oh. But not me this time. I found a way for Chris to make skeletons. If this experiment works, Chris will be able to make skeletons in the realm."

"Chris, you know, make it?

"Yes."

That's what Chris said, and then he walked out of the room.

Was there anything to think about?
