Chapter 1-8

“Well, well It’s been awhile since you’ve co master”

“Hey, Maron-jii”

“Hoho Lately you’ve been taking a lot of actions, huh Your appearance is also beco man It’s as if you’re a different person from the time you were a child”

As expected of soe, he observes others well

“I can’t deny it Has this place regained a bit of its liveliness fro?”

“I didn’t reside here when I was young, but I don’t believe it was ever this lively

I believe that Helan is exactly in theperiod”

“Hht now, huh”

Good, good While letting your guard down is bad, this is certainly a good flow If I don’t e mistakes from here on, there shouldn’t be a problem, should there?

If I can just e that wife I haven’t met yet…

Let’s think about this again next spring

“For the first tiic tome in the library As expected, I concentrate best in here after all”

“Is that so While I am present, I shall maintain the best study environment for you”

“Thanks”

“The second et to be difficult, but what did you think, young master?”

“It’s certainly difficult However, after reading it through four or five ti to understand it”

“That’s good It see”

“Where did you study at, Moran-jii?”

“I only engaged in self-education by ruh, I ae,” Moran-jii laughed

“Froht Moran-jii to be quite knowledgeable, but for you to be self-instructed

Well, I don’t actually believe everything you said, though”

“Hohoho, please don’t tease this old man so much”

After enjoying a brief conversation, Moran-jii and I returned back to our oork

Moran-jii spends the whole day ru all the books in the library, he has a grasp of where everything is He stocks new texts for the library froh the books is both a source of enjoyment for him and his job

I’ve heard that a country where the elderly are happy is a good country

If you’d say that, then that would ood territory

The contents of the second ic tome place the preservation of mana after separation from the body as it’s main point

Both flaht about fro periods of ti separated from a source of mana

However, this is only at my current level

Cutting off the supply offoric tome

I’ve understood the contents and succeeded at e

The reason I came to the library today was to concentrate on the application section’s creation of ic tools

In regards to the core used to e, it’s possible to h property alteration, it’s possible to make a piece of iron that is always cold

Well, that’s only in theory as I haven’t succeeded in it yet myself

The iteht today to become the tool’s core was an apple

I’ to add water’s property alteration

Even though I say water, I’ll alter the mana to become infinitely close to honey and put that inside of the apple

Due to having created the honey by mana, the apple was able to absorb it naturally

It looks just like a normal apple

After splitting apart the apple, mana flows out

It seems that it still won’t turn out well

I’oes well, I’ll be able to make an extremely delicious apple

In accordance to Moran-jii’s teachings, I should just keep atte

Moran-jii is i himself in the library

And I continued pouring mana into apples

“Youngto do?”

“Ah, Moran-jii” It seems he’s returned to reality

“I’ic tool creation”

“With an apple?”

“Yeah, I wanted to try eating an extremely sweet apple”

“Hoho, You do sos

Usually, the creation of a , sword, protective equip similar

It is generally used by equipping the ring that was turned into aa sword that has property change used on it

This is the first tiic item”

“Is that true!? What a waste”

“Hoho, everyone has a different way of thinking

In regards to this ular”

“Moran-jii hasn’t ever tested it?”

“I haven’t Absorbing the mana that one has produced While it see many people would try

First of all, the aic users that canic user”

“Huh In ter I am in combat”

“H unable to sustain mana outside of the body, there are those who pursue only powerful property alteration and e

In tero Hohoho”

I can’t ask about these kinds of things from anyone else I suppose I should say, as expected of Moran-jii

“Hmm”

“I made an apple, but would you like to try it, Moran-jii?”

Around evening, below Moran-jii, orking hard on the second floor, I had completed my creation on the first floor

I had become able to almost perfectly store mana in the apple

“I refuse As an old man, I need to treat my body with care”

“That’s a bit rude, Moran-jii”

“Hoho, well here’s the third volume”

That damned Moran-jii swiftly ran away to the recesses of the library after throwing the book to me

Though I say that, when it ca it I also became scared

“Alright, let’s eat it”

I proclaimed such many times, however

It can’t be helped Since it’s come to this, I’ll have to use that hand

There’s a perfect person for poison tasting

“Father”

“What is is, Kururi?”

I found father relaxing in front of the fireplace

“I picked an apple It’s very sweet

Tou-san is carrying a lot on his back with the position of the feudal lord, so I picked it with the desire for you to take in the proper nutrition so that you don’t collapse”

“Ah, Kururi You’re really a great child

Now that I think of it, after clied a bit after falling

After that, whenever I saw an apple-” “That’s fine, eat it”

“A-ah, I’ve got it”

After passing over the apple, father seee bite out of it

He glanced over at ave up and bit into it

“Nn!!! Delicious!!

What a deep coh the apple is still i a sweetness that can only be described as perfect In addition, it strangely also possesses a refreshi+ng taste! It’s as if the sweetness isa rich flavor, the nectarinside of your mouth creates what can only be called a supre earlier and I was full, without any concern to that, this apple directly penetrates my stomach! My mouth makes a fuss of, ‘Just oneof this taste by mouth reaches its limit—!!!”

“…”

What’s up with this guy Resisting the urge to punch him in the stomach, I left the room

Is it that good?

In the end, father pestered me for more, so I made some more for him until he calmed down

After nightfall, I exited the bath and entered my room

In front of le apple filled with mana

I already at dinner so I honestly didn’t feel good about it, but father said that much after all

Only one bite

“Delicious!! The deep sweetness spreading out in the inside of my mouth… ”

Whoops, I almost repeated what father did

Well then, let’s sleep I also have a lot of things I want to do tomorrow

Father said that he felt his fatigue go away after eating it, but I don’t currently have such a feeling Perhaps there was a difference in production?

Well, let’s not think too deeply about that I’ll end up not being able to sleep

…Strange

My body is hot It feels heated up like after going on a run, and my mind is in a state of arousal

Why!?

There’s only one possibility It’s the apple!!

I jue to shout, observed my body

Mana is overflowing

It’s as if a flood ofwithin my body

If I ate the ic tool that I put ically, this is the only result

It’s not just ht now I have a feeling like that!!

“Yo-to,” I really lifted it up

I restrain the feeling to shout again and put the bed down gently

Right now I a
