Refining Magic Iron.

How do you do that, there are a few that look big.

If it is massive, it would be typical of refining methods using magic props carried out by blacksmith unions and others.

Methods of doing it without witchcraft also exist as ancient, but are now rarely done in relation to cost or time.

It exists if you are doing it on a small scale, for example on the border, but there are few on a large scale.

By the way, the Kingdom of Yaran is a frontier.

So if you go to a village in the back of the mountain or something, you're likely to be seen.

It's a mystery whether or not you have the opportunity.

Well, that's why, basically, refining methods using demonic props are typical, but there are other ways.

That's what alchemy was used for.

Technically, a method that uses magic props can also be described as a method created by alchemy, but there are ways that you can manipulate magic without using a dedicated magic prop.

It is to this that I ask Lorraine.

Alchemy doesn't mean you should only learn magicians apart, and some are alchemists who aren't magicians, but it's still easier to research if you can handle some magic power.

Otherwise, it seems to be a hassle because we'll have to use demonic stones and instruments to manipulate magic.

Lorraine is an extremely good magician in this regard, so she seems to be able to do it all in one effort.

In fact, I got some Ore of Magic Iron, put it together and put it on my desk, and then Lorraine...

"Now, hurry up..."

With that said, he began to gather magic for the refinement of "Magic Iron".

Not that I can see where the magic is concentrated, but the Iron Magic in the Ore reacts to the magic and glows slightly pale purple.

Then, the change happened all the time.

The luminescent part of the ore moves out, showing liquid-like motion.

Magic Iron.

Then he moves like a snake when he snorts, away from the ore.

Kin, Kin, and make noises, and little fragments are bounced off because impurities are being skipped.

And it became pure "Magic Iron," which gathered in one place and gradually shaped a large mass from a fine cohesion.

"... Hmm, is this what this is all about?

I took a rectangular, purple mass of metal floating in the air, and Lorraine said so.

"You got it?"

That's what I ask, Lorraine,

"Oh... well, I think you're doing pretty well. A concurrent alchemist would not be able to refine so purely."

That's what I said, hand me the Ingots of "The Iron of Demons".

I was handed it, and I tried to fix it, but I was just praising myself for joking, and it certainly looked very well done.

It's a subtle thing when people say how much quality I can judge about metal chunks of more than some purity, but I'm pretty sure they have more quality than the Ingots of "Magic Iron" available at blacksmith unions and such.

Well, it's a mass-produced product over there, and this one's not.

The effort involved is different, and since the blacksmith union's products are assumed to be further refined by the blacksmith after being conceded to the blacksmith's hands, I don't think they can be simply compared.

Of course, it's natural that the quality should still be good.

And I'd say it's enough work Lorraine did for me.

"I'll put everything else together, okay?

That's what Lorraine's been asking me, so I nod and take out all the Ore from the Magic Bag.

"Oh... some of them were perverted. Let's split it up. You just have to exclude the guy with the yellow spot, right?

Remember, when I say that, Lorraine,

"Right...... well, some things may only be degenerate internally, but let's split those things when refining. You can do it all together, but I'm tired. It's easier to keep it separate."

Lorraine seems to be able to refine the Magic Iron and the regular Magic Iron, stained with the magic of the earth dragon (Earth Dragon), but she doesn't want to do it to be very concerned with the treatment of magic.

It is also more likely to fail.

If there is only a small amount of mixed, I can divide it without so much care, so I split the ore.

"... you had an unexpected amount"

That is not to say, the total amount of ore, but the amount of ore stained with the magic of the earth dragon (Earth Dragon).

There's about a third of the total, and from the amount I've brought, it seems like I could pick a pretty good ingot.

"How magical was the earth dragon? If the adventurer was there, he might have passed out..."

Lorraine said yes, terrible things.

Maybe I was fine because I'm this body.

Well, still, you wouldn't have died, because if you passed out in a place like that, you'd be attacked by demons instantly.

I knew you'd be dead.

"Come on, let's go crispy"

That's what Lorraine says, and starts refining the regular "Magic Iron" of the divided ore.

The speed is different than earlier, probably because I understand the composition of this ore and am used to it.

Ingots pile up one after the other.

"... All right, here's the place"

That's what Lorraine said, not even half an hour after the refining for the first time.

Fast.

If that's what a co-alchemist is, isn't it a day-long task?

Besides, Lorraine said,

"This way next."

That said, I began working on the Magic Iron Ore stained with the magic of the Earth Dragon (Earth Dragon).

"... are you all right?

I'm worried because it's too fast. I ask so.

"What, no problem..."

With that said, I still pile up my ingots one after the other.

This is a yellowish metal mass, unlike the earlier Magic Iron.

Rather than golden, it is a rather dull shade, with a faint glow, but I feel more like pressure than the usual "Magic Iron".

Is it your fault?

"Okay, this will do"

That's what Lorraine said, a much shorter time than just now, only enough.

Yet the job was perfect.

"You're a boulder. But now I feel really bad about the free" just "thing."

Wouldn't it normally fly gold coins if I asked a general alchemist to do all this?

The day is prime, the quality is high, and you will use a lot of magic......

But Lorraine shakes her head.

"If you're going to say that, I'm going to let you study the world's only and only existence for free. It would have been worth the money. Anyway, if you're an alchemist who can do this much, you can find it, but being like you is impossible to find. So, never mind."

I wonder if he's really anywhere, but at least I've never met him, and I'm pretty sure I've never seen Lorraine.

Because it's a high hurdle to say that the Dragon has to eat me in the first place......

Anyway,

"Well, let's just say we have each other."

When I said that, Lorraine nodded, too, and I said, yeah.
