Magicraft Meister Part 3

Jin, Erza and the others took their time to look around the free market and decided to eat lunch at a street vendor.

"Do you have any recommendations?"

Erza asks Najas, deciding that it would be best to leave her to her own devices.

"How about those skewers over there?"

"...... what kind of meat?"

"Cocalis. ......

Rejected.

Elsa, who did not like cocaris meat, did not eat the skewers.

"Well, how about that one?"

"Oh, that looks good!"

Jin couldn't help but exclaim.

It was an udon stall.

It was a little early in the day, so it was not crowded yet, and hot udon noodles were served within about five minutes of ordering. Jin thought this was inexpensive at 20 tol (about 200 yen) per bowl.

"Yes, the soup stock is well made," he said.

"Mmm, it's delicious."

"There are five stores in Wangdu, including the main store and branches.

By the way, Najis paid for the udon. On the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

Well, let's go around some more.

"Hmm."

We were about three-fifths of the way around, so we decided to go around the remaining two-fifths and headed for an unexplored area.

"This is ......."

"Specializing in poisonous and deleterious substances.

The store is prominently and prominently labeled as a "store specializing in hazardous materials," and there are also two soldiers-like personnel stationed there.

When making a purchase, you are required to show your ID card and write down your name and purpose of use.

(Like when you buy something dangerous at a pharmacy).

When you buy sulfuric acid or nitric acid at the pharmacy, you are asked to write your name and purpose of use clearly, such as <> or <>.

At least, this was the case when Jin bought nitric acid for etching silver.

"Sulfur, red arsenic nickel ore, cinnabar, asbestos (asbestos), and lead ores ......"

That's about all the minerals that Jin can see, but there are still many more in the line.

"...... I don't particularly want any of them."

Jin and the others quickly left the place because they might be noticed if they stayed there too long.

"Elsa-sama, is asbestos poisonous?"

Najas asked Elsa from a short distance away.

"By itself, it is not toxic. But when you inhale it in fine powder, it can hurt your chest."

Since Najas did not yet have sufficient medical knowledge, Elsa tried to explain in a way that was easy to understand, even if a little inaccurate.

"Oh, this is ......."

This time Jin's attention was caught by a store selling old and broken magic tools.

"...... a refrigerator, a water heater, a lighter ...... and a popcorn machine."

"......, wreckage."

It was.

"Oh, you're a connoisseur!"

The clerk said happily.

"It's probably a magic tool about 200 years old!"

Jin inwardly said, "No, it's about 400 years old!

"I'll buy all of them!"

He declared, "I'll buy all of them.

"Thank you very much!

I paid 50,000 TL for the entire package, which was packed in a container that was brought to me.

"So, what are you going to do with it?"

Najas asked me,

"Well, I'm planning to build a museum of magical engineering in the Shoro Kingdom. I thought it could be displayed there."

Jin saw that 80% of the objects were genuine.

The remaining 20% were replicas, but he had bought them all for the trouble.

"Hope, please put this whole container away in the hurricane," he said.

"Yes, sir."

Hope left with a container the size of a wardrobe, and returned in about three minutes.

"Thank you."

Najas rolled her eyes at how fast she was moving, and Jin and the others headed for an area they hadn't seen yet.

"Oh!"

This time it was an old weapon that caught Jin and the others' attention.

It's a rag market, so it's not surprising that many of them are old. .......

"This is ......."

There, among the rusty swords, was a shortsword from the Kingdom of Klein.

Jin refused and picked it up. Secretly using >, he found .......

(......I knew I made that one!)

Jin barely restrained himself from saying it.

(When I went to the Klein Kingdom a long time ago,...... yes, I delivered 100 strikes, I think that's one of them.)

) Feeling nostalgic, Jin bought the old sword as well.

He bought the old sword, thinking that it might be good to display it in the memorial hall, even though it was a little embarrassing.

After that, there were some more old blades, but nothing that Jin could find that he wanted.

Saki and Goose had also disappeared somehow. Jin thought that they had probably come here on a day trip.

"I guess we better get back."

"Yeah..."

And then...

"Father, I have an old book here."

Reiko called out.

"A book?"

"Oh, this is ......."

Upon closer inspection, it turns out to be a magic book published before the rise of the <>.

It is quite damaged and some pages seem to be missing.

"I should buy this one too."

Jin thought that it would be a good idea to display this book as a symbolic item of the period of decline by the <> in the history of magical engineering.

Incidentally, there were three such old books, which together cost 500 dollars.

All the purchased items were placed in the , and Jin and his friends returned to the Royal Castle with empty bodies.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Jin and the others returned to their room, took a bath, and relaxed.

"Yeah, I'm a little tired.

"Yeah, I'm a little tired..." "Yeah, but it was fun.

"Yeah, I'm a little tired," "But it was fun. I'm looking forward to the auction tomorrow."

Dusk was falling outside the window.
