Chapter 387: The New Model Lamp Magic Tool
Rosalia immediately began taking action. It seemed she was adding a magic circle that would generate wind. Right before our eyes, she swiftly disassembled the magic tool. Then, without hesitation, she started attaching a pre-prepared magic circle.
“Rosalia-chan, you’re quite skilled at this.”
“Yeah, as expected of my little sister.”
Fabienne and I couldn’t help but exchange wry smiles. It was only natural. Whether it was studying together, practicing dance, or taking etiquette lessons, Rosalia had never moved this quickly. She truly loves magic tools. Her enthusiasm is quite similar to how I act when it comes to magic potions.
After finishing the installation of the magic circle, Rosalia quickly reassembled the magic tool. It seemed she had been repeatedly taking it apart and putting it back together. Lilie was also helping her, and the two of them worked together perfectly. Ah, Nero looks a little exasperated. He probably wants to say, “Isn’t your main job taking care of Rosalia?”
“It’s done! Let’s test it right away!”
Without even waiting for a response, she flipped the switch. The suction power had improved compared to before, but it still seemed incapable of sucking up larger debris. She tried a few times, but it didn’t seem to work. Maybe the intake opening was too wide? The cleaning efficiency might decrease, but if we want to enhance the suction power, we might have to compromise.
“Rosalia, how about making the intake opening a little smaller? Also, narrowing the air passage leading to the bag should help. That way, we can control the airflow more effectively.”
“I’ll give it a try!”
At this point, modifying the main body of the magic tool became necessary. It would take some time. In the meantime, maybe I should work on creating an artificial sun? I had already found a suitable magic circle, so I might as well turn it into a proper magic tool.
I wanted to be particular about the design. Instead of making it look like a lamp, I wanted the artificial sun to appear slightly apart from the tool itself. Whether it would actually work was something I wouldn’t know until I tried.
Even though I always tell Rosalia, “Make a blueprint first!” countless times, here I am, making something without a blueprint. If Rosalia found out, she’d probably be absolutely furious. But I’m prioritizing speed here.
“Hmm, hmm, hmmm~”
“You’re in a good mood.”
“Oh, you can tell? If this works, we might be able to grow plants even on rainy or cloudy days. A lot of plant-based materials are needed for making magic potions. The higher the quality, the better.”
Fabienne seemed to agree, nodding repeatedly. I never imagined it would be this difficult to create the highest quality magic potions. I was even starting to doubt whether I could make them at all.
The design was simple—a square box. Its form, reminiscent of a tofu house, emitted a dull metallic glow. On the side, there were only two switches: one for turning it on and off and another for adjusting the brightness. It was incredibly simple. Definitely not lazily made.
Seeing how quickly I had completed the magic tool, Fabienne and Nero’s eyes widened in shock. Mira, on the other hand, didn’t seem to understand much—she was patting the finished square box repeatedly.
Stop that!
“No, Mira. This isn’t a toy.”
“Kyuu.”
“Then, what is it, Oniisan?”
Before I knew it, Rosalia had come over, smiling brightly. What is this smile? I’ve seen it somewhere before. Ah! It’s the same smile as Mother’s. When did she learn to smile like that?
“N-No, Rosalia, you’ve got it wrong. While you were working hard on improving the vacuum magic tool, I just tried making a new magic tool.”
“What exactly is wrong about it?”
Ah, this is bad. Her face clearly says, “Why did you make a new magic tool without telling me?” I don’t think I need Rosalia’s permission, but as a fellow magic tool craftsman, it must bother her.
Deciding that it wouldn’t be wise to make Rosalia any more displeased, I explained what this magic tool was. After hearing my explanation, Rosalia seemed convinced—for now. Though she still had her hand on her chin.
“A magic tool that replicates sunlight… In short, a new type of lamp magic tool, correct?”
“That’s right.”
“Indeed, it is.”
Rosalia hit the nail on the head. Let’s just call this a new type of lamp magic tool. That seems like the most convenient explanation. Nice thinking, Rosalia.
“Well then, let’s proceed with testing the new model lamp magic tool!”
Clap, clap, clap, clap. Everyone applauded. Thanks for going along with my somewhat forced enthusiasm. Sorry, Rosalia, for interrupting your work on improving the magic tool.
First, I set the light intensity to zero and pressed the switch. As expected, nothing happened. While everyone tilted their heads in confusion, I gradually increased the light intensity.
“Wow, it’s like a tiny sun!”
“Kyuu, kyuu!”
Excited, Mira reached out to touch the small sun, but her hand passed right through it. She stared at her hand in wonder. Rosalia also held out her hand in the same way. Just as planned, the magic tool emitted only light, without generating any heat. This way, there wouldn’t be any burns, fires, or excessive heating in greenhouses.
Of course, I also tried touching it. My hand passed through without issue. Fabienne, Nero, and Lilie, all with curious expressions, mimicked the same motion.
Since the usual lamp magic tools glow from within a lattice frame, there’s never really been an opportunity to touch the light itself.
