My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

67 – Summer Vacation (4)

All final exams are over.

At the same time, the first semester of this year has come to an end.

Many students cried and laughed at exams and substitute assignments, but it had nothing to do with me.

The gate exploration that I participated in the other day at the suggestion of the president.

In return, I received convenience in the grades of all subjects this semester.

Well, to say it’s convenience, it’s to the extent that you can barely get past the F and pass the course…

For me, who blew entire exams in several subjects, even that was a no-brainer.

“Still, isn’t it a very meaningful semester for seniors?”

“That’s right.”

As Delia said.

The first semester of the second year was much more eventful than last year, which was calm.

At the end of this semester…

My reputation and recognition as an alchemist, and even improving my skills.

I took everything I could get my hands on.

Especially in terms of improving my skills, I was also surprised.

Although my status is an academy undergraduate, I thought that there was not much to learn because I had studied so much in advance.

Still, there was a lot to learn.

I learned about new theories in academia from Professor Melin,

Digging deeper into potion manufacturing.

Experienced ＜Academy Coliseum＞ firsthand,

I was able to devise a more efficient combat magic tool.

After being smashed once by a lycanthrope,

I realized that golems aren’t perfect in one-on-one combat.

I was still an alchemist with a lot to learn, and I still had a lot of room to grow.

“And like this, I opened an alchemy shop in my name.”

I looked at the signboard of the store with a little excitement.

＜Moonlight Night＞

Is it because they paid more than the basic price?

The new alchemy shop, which was expected to be completed during or after the vacation…

Now, less than a week has passed since vacation began.

Construction was already nearing completion.

In the name of inspection, I also do sightseeing.

I came to see the unfinished Alchemy Shop with Delia.

“hehehe, I will.”

Delia responded with a grin at my words.

Then I went to the entrance of the Alchemy Shop and touched the walls here and there.

… That alone is already the fifth.

I’ve been touching all over the Alchemy Shop today, and I still can’t believe it.

Although I was invested by Ariel,

Anyway, due to the share structure, this alchemy shop belongs to me.

An undergraduate at the academy has already privately owned an alchemy shop of this size… .

That seemed to be quite strange to Delia as well.

“Senior, then what time of day will I be working?”

Delia suddenly looked back and asked.

I didn’t bring her here for no reason.

Delia is also an employee who will work here from now on, and furthermore, she will become a contract alchemist to store magic tools.

“hmm… Morphine has decided to take over the morning slot, and in the evening I’ll mostly be watching… Maybe on a weekday afternoon? You can change it if you don’t like it. It’s still vacation anyway, so we can set the timetable for the next semester according to the time zone.”

“What about the weekend?”

“I have to see it first. Anna said she would do it on the weekend, but I can’t make her do it all weekend.”

The number of employees for ＜Moonlight Night＞ is 4 people.

Me, Morphine, Anna and Delia.

It was an insufficient number to operate on both weekdays and weekends, but it could not be helped.

To use more manpower, the pool of my network was narrow.

Schunika and Ruen were left out of the plan from the beginning.

I wasn’t the person in charge of the operation like Anna, and I wasn’t a student at the Faculty of Alchemy like Morphine or Delia.

I wanted to ask Lenia or Urcellu, who were at least related, but…

Still, the princess and the escort, but there’s no way she’d work as an employee.

I just finished the contract with Lenia as an alchemist with magic tools.

“Delia. Could you tell me, at least roughly, how many magic tools you can make right now?”

He asked her in a slightly cautious tone.

Alchemists are originally warriors with many secrets in their individualism.

It is an implicit rule not to tell the manufacturing ratio, even between teachers and students, and the specific manufacturing method is not easily disclosed.

Of course, asking about the achievement level of alchemy could be an example depending on the point of view.

But Delia is an alchemist with morphine that I decided to make a contract with.

It was necessary to know, at least roughly, the level of the magic tools being entered.

Delia answered my question with a shy face, perhaps a bit embarrassed.

“I… You can make all kinds of completely basic stones. And the Vine Stone that you created… I was able to make it recently.”

“uh… ? really? You know how to make a Vine Stone?”

“yes… . It’s still too much for the Explosion Stone, but it is possible to make all types of stones below that level.”

Unknowingly, I was amazed.

I was genuinely surprised.

[Vine Stone] is a magic tool with a fairly high level of difficulty.

I’m not uploading it because I created it.

Really objectively, it belongs to a fairly difficult magic tool.

If you compare it with simple difficulty, it easily surpasses [Low Stamina Potion].

In other words, if Delia focused a little more on potions rather than stones.

It was said that by now, he already had the skills to make stamina potions.

When I first sold health potions at the academy alchemy shop, I remember that Dean of Opert was startled and asked me if it was authentic.

It was because the potions, which were first practiced only in the third year, were made by sophomore undergraduates.

But Delia is even a freshman.

It is said that the production skill is at the level of a first grader making a physical potion… ?

If Dean of Opert found out, he would make a fuss and propose a student assistant position.

“Are you okay? Almost all stone-type stores can be contracted with you. I didn’t know you were so confident in the stone style.”

Ordinary alchemy students are more interested in potions than stones.

This is because there are clear limits to what Stones can make at the undergraduate level.

Most of the stone-type magical tools are often produced for help in life or for convenience, and the difficulty of making them rises rapidly as they are used in combat.

[Explosion Stone], a representative battle magic tool, is known as the ‘alchemist’s wall’.

Besides, potions are much more helpful when selling magic tools…

Many students preferred to try potions.

Perhaps that’s why Delia’s achievements in stone production came to me in a fresh way.

“lol… The truth is, I want to make a magic tool created by my senpai… I ended up digging stones.”

“What did I create?”

“yes. Things like magic bullet shooting and safe cages are too difficult… I tried to challenge the Vine Stone, which seemed possible, so I think I was a little more accomplished with the Stone type.”

Only then did the doubts that lingered in my mind were cleared.

Delia now.

I was greatly influenced by my alchemy and magic tools.

Unexpectedly, this is a common motivation for making alchemists.

For example, morphine.

Morphine focused on making an antidote among potions, probably because of the painful memories of her mother suffering from addiction.

I’ve been researching the antidote on my own throughout this semester, and as a result, I’ve reached the point where I can easily make [lower antidote].

Thanks to that, I signed a contract with Morphine to enter the Antidote section of ＜The Moonlight Night＞.

It was still at the stage of [Low Antidote], but in the future it might reach the level of [Intermediate Antidote] or [Anti-Venom].

But Delia was influenced by me and produced [Vine Stone].

[Vine Stone] is said to be one of the easiest of my magic tools, but it was surprising that she, still in her first year, succeeded in making it.

‘He’s a real genius… .’

Suddenly, I remembered the story of Morphine and Delia taking the top and bottom seats alternately in the first year.

When I think about the above facts, I nod my head.

If she continued to grow like this, Delia didn’t know if she would even create a [Dispel Stone].

“Anyway, if you know how to make a vine stone, there will be no problem at all. Delia, let’s sign a store contract with stones. The contract will be prepared tomorrow through Anna.”

“Yes, I like it.”

“But don’t lean too far to one side. If you’re an alchemist, you should be able to stand out in a variety of fields. Did you know that Molise, who is famous for Stones, first got a professorship with a potion-type thesis?”

“Really… ? I did not know.”

Delia’s innocent expression made her feel remorse for a moment.

… must not know

I also heard this directly from my senior at the ‘Alchemist’s Day’ event… .

“Hmm, hmm. Anyway, that means don’t get too obsessed with stones. I have to do other things to make a magic bullet shooter and a safe cage. You’re smart, you know what I mean?”

“Yes, senior.”

Delia answered with a bright smile.

I nagged a bit, but…

It was definitely a good feeling to have juniors following behind me.

Besides, Delia is a bright junior.

I need to make a [Vine Stone]…

For that reason, if you have shown that level of achievement in the stone class.

Perhaps even concentrating on magic tools in other fields would produce sufficient results.

Morphine, the antidote, and Delia, who surprised me with stones.

The two alchemists who first conceived of the alchemy shop and planned to recruit them are already standing out.

The Alchemy Shop ＜The Night When the Moon Goes Down＞ is about a week away from completion.

One of the most important plans for this summer vacation, fortunately, was sewing the first button well.
