Chapter 259 (1/2)

12-12 Royal Capital's Mansion (2)

Satou's here It's said that necessity is the mother of invention I think there was a tis easier

“Igniter tool that doesn't use ic power?”

“Yes, a self-alleged inventor clainition Rod, and the trial-product that he brought was indeed comparatively easier to use e tried it One needs to learn a little bit of the knack, but it should be easier than using a flint”

Porina toldthe workshop's office

Soing various inventions, it seems they were inspired by the kickboard

Although most of the tools are useless, I've told Porina to buy anything that's even a little bit usable

We're buying ideas with the prototype blueprint in exchange of one silver coin If Echigoya is going to sell the tool, the inventor will get 10 of the profit from the sales

Porina brings a box written with “17” from the shelf

Looks like she's divided the them will be hard otherwise

The inside of the box is a lighter the size of a hair spray

Leaving the prototype before establishi+ng a contract like this, I think the inventor is quite careless

It's the sah this one is a bit rustic

It's perfectly the sahter structure written in the notebook that I've gotten in the dark auction back then

There isn't anyone with cheat-like skills that reincarnated or teleported people would have so this someone must be a teleported person related to Princess Menea It's probably a teleported person that should've been dead but is actually, [alive all along]

“It may seem very convenient, but it has a fatal flaw”

Porina speaks about the problehter full of interest

–It's the production cost

Although it's an item that should be profitable in other cities, there's noabundant supply of ic cores from the Labyrinth City

The production cost for Ignition Rod is cheaper than the calculated cost of this Lighter even in Royal Capital, which isn't as cheap as in the Labyrinth City

Of course, on top of being a business, the price we get froin is such that it won't be able to conition Rod

Moreover, co chopstick, the prototype lighter is heavier and bigger

The Ignition Rod is superior even in the convenience aspect in kitchens

It'll only end up as a collector item of eccentric people in its current state

“Porina, do you have the contact information of the inventor?”

“Yes, I have inquired it The other party said that, 『I can come anytime』, so I could contact him with date and time that Kuro-saht for theplace?”

“Yeah, please do”

She's really well prepared

Porina was originally wise enough you wouldn't have thought that she was a fore carrier, but I think she's become refined ever since she became the workshop head

She probably has accumulated various experiences too, her level has increased by three compared to the last time I met her

After telling the date and tier from the next room

I didn't hear the na to meet

Now that I've coo back after seeing Nell after this

It's lunchti room

“Hyu, Hyuro-hama”

Who the heck is [Hyuro]

Nell as slurping a ely

“You can speak after you finish sing the thing in your mouth”

“Fes”

Nell slurps the re noodles down

Guessing from this aroma and the color of the noodles–

“Is that Soba?”

“U, ugu Y, yes, it's Soba ssu”

Soba with soy-sauce soup huh

I've heard that there's a custo Soba in the Royal Capital, but I heard it was in Sobagaki (buckwheat dough) form

When I told that to Nell–

“I got to eat various strange dishes once a wandering cook cao ssuyo Half of the dishes were extreh, so you'll have to brace yourself when you challenge a new one”

I asked what kind of dishes were they, but apparently the recipes were similar to the dishes in e since the cook tried to forcefully reproduce the ingredients and the flavoring using local products

I was thinking of visiting the diner since it was lunch tih that the cook is the sahter, I've decided not to

I'irls would break their stoet back soon

I asked Nell about the recent situation and affairs at the workshop a bit

I've already handed her the souvenir of course Looks like she rarely receives an accessory, her unusual tension when she was receiving it was impressive

It's an earring that has philosopher's stone that's sic recovery effect

Please take care of it

–The workshop's efficiencyto be increased with this

After telling Arisa that I would go back noith [Telephone], I teleported back to the mansion

I could sot back to the mansion

“Satou”

Mia who's co room

Tah

When we arrive at the dining roo the plates

I feel sorry for the e everyone to sit down and leave the job to the maids

“Welco too fast after the 『Kaeru Call』 earlier You should've contacted me earlier”

…A, Arisa [Kaeru (come home) Call], what era are you from

Well, no use retorting that after all this time

The Teht now

Everyone starts eating with the signal of [Itadakimasu] Pochi and Tama have become able to use chopsticks recently, but it seeed them with forks

I quickly dip the noodle on the soup and gulp it one go

When I chew it, the aroma of Soba and the salty-sweet taste of the soup spread in my mouth

A japanese person should be eating this with slurping sounds, but since it seedom, I refrain myself

In fact, Lulu is scolding Arisa who's eating the Soba messily
