Chapter 49: In Search of Cleanliness

Both the new flavor of elementary recovery potion and the new magic potion, elementary physical strength recovery potion, were adopted by the knights. When a knight, who had been gloomily saying that he had been feeling tired lately and was feeling …… tired, became crisp and full of vitality after taking the elementary level restorative, I wondered if it was really safe to offer this magic potion to him.

The only drawback of the potion, its “harshness,” seemed to be a deterrent, and I was fortunate that people did not say they would try it. Perhaps it is intentionally tart to deter people from trying it?

I think I’ll make the improved version taste better, but with a slightly weaker effect. As you can imagine, that group of hustlers looks like a group of people on a dubious drug. I’m glad I tried it.

“Brother, it doesn’t smell good in here.”

My sister Rosalia had wrinkles on her eyebrows. I’m already used to it, but it seems to be tough on the little lady Rosalia. But, as Rosaria certainly says, the coolness of her training ground is very bad.

Even now, the water from the well is poured over my head to purify my body. I wouldn’t say that the well water is dirty, but since it wasn’t meant to wash the body, it seemed that the smell and dirt could only be removed in its own way.

“It’s as Rosaria says. Well then, let’s make a magic tool that will make the knights feel refreshed.”

“Brother, can I have a look?”

“That’s fine, but…”

What should I do. It’s really bad to use the “Craft” skill, isn’t it? In that case, there is no choice but to make it steadily by hitting it with a hammer.

After deciding what to do next, I greeted Lionel and the others and returned to the mansion.

Until dinner time, it’s magic tool creation time. The magic tool I’m going to make from now on is a shower, a magic tool that makes water come out of countless small holes.

Let’s start with the blueprint. If you don’t have this, you can’t get someone to make it for you.

My policy is “make as much as you need and leave the rest to someone else”. For that, we need a blueprint. If you say, “Take it apart yourself and check it out,” then you don’t know when that magic tool will be mass-produced. In the meantime, I’m sorry if I keep making it.

The shower magic tool I’m trying to make this time is also a magic tool that didn’t exist in the game, just like the “star magic tool” I made last time. It turns out that even magic tools that don’t exist in the game can be made if you have the inspiration, so I’m thinking of making a magic tool that everyone will be happy with.

As I was writing the blueprints on my desk, Rosalia peered in. She didn’t say a word, probably because she thought it would be bad if she disturbed me. Come to think of it, Rosalia was also interested in magic tools. Should she make a simple lamp magic tool?

“Would you like to make something for yourself too?”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course. Then let’s start with the most basic lamp magic tool.”

“Yes, thank you very much!”

I stroked the head of Rosalia, who had a bright smile on her face, and prepared the necessary tools. Lately I’ve had a habit of unconsciously stroking Rosalia’s head. If I’m not careful, I might be told, “Don’t treat me like a child.”

“This is magic ink and this is the magic stone that will be used as fuel. And this is the iron plate to make the container.”

Rosalia is watching with her eyes sparkling. It sounds like you’ve been interested in this for a long time. Was she taught that it wasn’t a hobby for ladies? I wonder if I don’t have to worry about such things because I’m not originally a resident of this world.

“Listen, Rosalia. Draw the same pattern on this board as it is on this paper.”

“I understand!”

After answering cheerfully, he immediately began to fight with the pattern. Unless you can draw this, you can’t make magic tools. I’ll do my best. In the meantime, I’ll finish drawing the shower blueprints.

When the blueprints were starting to take shape, a servant came calling to say, “Dinner is ready.”

The normally lively dinner will be just the two of us for a while from today. The empty dining room feels wider than usual. Rosalia, who was sitting in front of me, was also silently pecking at her meal.

What am I going to do here, immersed in sorrow? The social season has just started. I told myself so.

“Rosalia, do you think you can draw the magic circle well?”

“It will be completed in a little while. Can you take a look at it then?”

“Of course.

“Yes. How about you brother?”

“The blueprint will be ready soon. But I wonder if it will be made from tomorrow? It’s going to be a little noisy.”

I was actually thinking of making a magic tool by secretly using the ‘Craft’ skill at night, but I thought Rosalia would be disappointed if I did that, so I stopped. I’m sure Rosalia would like to see how I make it.

And once the magic circle Rosalia draws is complete, you can make a lamp magic tool. If you teach her how to use a hammer while you’re at it, it’s killing two birds with one stone.

After that, the two continued eating while talking about magic tools.

The servant was a bit taken aback, but he watched over us without saying anything.

When the meal is over, it is bedtime from bath time. When I was playing with Rosaria at the salon until my stomach was healed, I was told that the bath was ready.

“Onii-sama, let’s take a bath together.”

“Okay”

Yeah, I thought it would. We are nine and six years old. I wonder if we’re barely old enough to take a bath together? But if this becomes known to Chloe and Caro, it might become troublesome.

It’s fine if you look at me with strange eyes, but they might say that I’m going to take a bath with you. As expected, that’s bad
