Chapter 100 - The Continuation of Creation Magic (Weak)

Tauro was pleased with the success of the creation magic, and Aeris was surprised, but it was short lived.

After a few attempts, they quickly realized that it easily drained away all of your magic power, that it couldn’t create from nothing, that it required materials, and that it could not be used on a large scale.

After all, the problem might be that the creation magic had a (weak) mark attached to it.

Eitherway, it wasn’t the creation magic I thought it would be.

Tauro pondered as he drank his second bottle of magic recovery potion.

“Hmmm.... I wonder if it would be safer to use something that is small, easy to get materials for, and not likely to be made with the technology of this world?"

He mumbled to himself.

“…..Then that's it.”

"What's that?"

Aeris joined in Tauro's monologue.

“What….What's that?”

Tauro, who was lost in his own world, was surprised by Aeris.

"Hey! Don't forget I'm here, okay?"

Aeris puffed up her cheeks and sulked.

“I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll make you something small that you want as an apology.”

"Then make me a pendant that combines your creation magic and Tauro's specialty magic circle."

Aeris suggested something that Tauro hadn't thought of.

It's true that even if you have the ability of precision, there is a limit to the number of small things you can make, even if you prepare them with the right tools.

Besides, being able to change materials into various shapes, or change the shape of a hard object, is a skill that I couldn’t have done in my previous life.

“Alright."

Tauro took out a small diamond-shaped piece of the dungeon core from the magic storage, a silver coin and a gold coin, and covered them with his hands.

"Creation magic...!"

Light leaked out from his covered palms for a moment, but quickly disappeared.

When he opened his covered hand, Tauro found an egg-shaped silver plate with a gold rim and a heart-shaped stone in the center. It was a pendant with a design that looked like wings growing out of it.

In addition, there was a gold pattern in the shape of the magic circle that Aeris had suggested, the work was very detailed.

When I tried to appraise it with my "true eye," I couldn't, maybe because the stone had an appraisal inhibiting effect.

That means the stone has an effect, and the magic circle is exerting that effect.

“Okay, it worked!"

Tauro was pleased and handed the pendant to Aeris.

"So this was a team effort design! And the shape of the stone is so cute... I'll treasure it!”*

Phew

Tauro was relieved that she liked it.

Out of magic, Tauro hurriedly drank a magic recovery potion.

It seems that the magic power recovery potion he drank earlier had been drained shortly after he had recovered.

For the time being, I told her that the pendant had an appraisal inhibiting effect, and asked her to check for any other things.

Aeris nodded happily and returned to the inn with a skip in her step.

After seeing her off, Tauro then made one for Shin and Rumeya, changing the stone from a heart to a drop shape.

The stone was made in the shape of a drop, instead of a heart, he thought a heart would be too much for a man.

He also decided to make a sword for Bob.

First, he went to the blacksmith to buy the materials.

I was able to get iron ore, but they didn't have iron sand, so I used magic storage to gather iron sand like a cheat.

Originally, swords were made from tama-hagane, which had to be made from iron sand using tatara iron manufacturing technology.

However, there was no such technology in this world.

It was convenient to be able to jump over that with “creation magic”.

For the handle and scabbard, I prepared wood from the treasure chest I got in the dungeon, and for the stone to be fitted into the head of the handle, I used Bob's goblin sorcerer's magic stone as a memento.

For the stone for the hilt, I'll use the Goblin Sorcerer's Stone that Bob has as a memento.

When I visited Bob's house, I explained the reason and borrowed the magic stone.

In the meantime, I decided to say I would have a good blacksmith I knew make the sword.

Just to be safe, I drank three potions to restore my magic power and used creation magic at the edge of the village.

For a moment, the whole area was enveloped in light, but it soon disappeared.

In Tauro's hand was a sword.

Before he had time to rejoice at his success, Tauro's magic power was fully drained and he collapsed on the spot.

As his consciousness seemed to fade, he forcefully sipped the magic power recovery potion and fainted.

When he woke up, it was already evening.

In Tauro's hand, he held the completed sword.

“I almost died because I ran out of magic power... I think I'll stop making swords now..."

Tauro pulled the sword out of its scabbard as he reflected on what he had done.

The blade was faintly covered with fire.

"Oh! Is this what you call a “magic sword”?"

I had a slight idea, but I couldn’t appraise it with my “true eyes”

Anyway, this completes my gift to Bob!

Tauro was satisfied with the workmanship of his "magic sword".
