The Man Picked up by the Gods

"Oh, I thought you felt good out there."

The exorcism of the Warcraft, who lived in the first pit, ended unsurpassed, and Mr. Hughes, who went outside, laughed comfortably.

"We don't have time to enjoy the air, we have to go back and do the debriefing."

"I know. After that, it's just around noon. Take another breath."

There's a voice coming out of us, and we're all headed near the entrance to the abandoned mine.

It is a square where loading and unloading of luggage was once carried out, such as ore and mining tools, which, unlike other places full of slopes and rocks, is nicely evened. You're just parking the carriage today and using it as our rendezvous point, but when it was flourishing, you said that a worker's lounge was also set up?

"Whoa."

Walking down hills and rocks scratching all the stretching weeds you can reach to your hips occasionally winds strong. It would also be caused by one side of the road being a cliff. There is no shield and the wind blowing through in the warm sun is open and comfortable.

Seeing the windswept direction, he was able to see the path he had used to come from the town of Gimru to this mine. In a blue sky with no clouds, the main road, cut open and stretched straight through the lush trees, is long idle and truly at peace.

"Boy, be careful. If you go that way, there's a cliff."

"Thank you"

Mr. Zeph gave me some advice. Sure, if we get too close, we might step off the road. It's hard to see underfoot with grass...

If you drop your gaze down, now you can see massive amounts of dirt and sand piling up messily under the cliff. Is that the soil and sand mountain that went out on the way to mining, the so-called Mount Bota? If it's real, I've never seen it.

Hard to say it's beautiful, but when I see weeds covering the mountains of red earth by the way, I somehow feel the vitality of nature. But.

"I don't have any body..."

This mine, he already said iron output is almost zero, but just because there's no iron ore out there, isn't there iron in the soil? That color of red soil is iron oxide, rust color, right? Maybe if I use alchemy, I can do it to iron... it seems that alchemy is a deep-rooted image of frigidity, and alchemists are scammers, and won't it be used?

With that in mind, the square at the meeting point is a lot closer. Further, I also saw Mr. Reinhardt and his wife waiting for some reason at the entrance to the square.

"Welcome back."

"How'd it go?

"Mother, Father, I have defeated many Cave Mantis!

"Hmm, sounds like you're doing pretty well."

"Mr. Lyoma prevented me from approaching along the way, and thanks to that, I was able to use my magic with confidence. And Mr. Lyoma has defeated more than I have!

"Lyoma, thank you for protecting me."

"And yet... Cavemantis was there that much?

"Apparently, the pit we entered was the nest of Cave Mantis. I haven't seen one other warcraft."

"Well, why don't you go to another pit this afternoon and come with us this time? I'd like to see you fight in the area and Lyoma."

"Is that true? I'll do my best!

"Oh, but let's have lunch before then. It's time for the others to come back. Until then, tell us more about the first one."

Thus we reported the details for lunch, and went to the second abandoned pit after meals.

"With that said, Mr. Lyoma, what were you thinking earlier?

"Earlier?"

Lunch with four of the Duke's family. She normally talked about her morning thoughts and how to fight the area, but as soon as that topic was over, the lady asked. But I don't know what you're talking about.

I thought you said you didn't have a body when you saw the view earlier.

Oh, that time. Understood, but the question is a little hard to answer.

"Yes, no, nothing in particular"

Oh, you're lying.

I even found out for myself that the words that came out were clearly about to be deluded.

"It's suspicious, very"

"You're a lousy liar."

"Is it hard to say?

"If you want to say something, don't hesitate to say it, okay?

Except for these people...

"Do you remember what I told you in the carriage before I got to the city of Gimru? I'm talking about salt."

"Oh...... I see. It's okay, we're the only ones here with Sebastian, Arone and Lillian. Arone and Lillian have a hard mouth, too."

"Really? I'll tell you what, you know I can use alchemy, right?

"You heard."

Mr Reinhardt replies so, but my consciousness was geared towards Mr Arone and Mr Lillian. Two people are somewhat surprised by the word alchemy, but they don't look disgusted. Continue the conversation in a ho.

"So, right? This mine is going to be abandoned, right?

"Bye. The process is already over. No."

"What's wrong with that?

"Iron, I think we can still pick it. Using alchemy."

The word now solidifies a movement other than mine.

"Is that true?

"Yes. We talked about pulling the poison out of the rock salt in the Ghanaian forest, right?

"Heard."

"In the same way, you just have to take the iron out of the dirt that was being thrown away. I think that red soil color is iron rust color so... uh, if you leave the sword on the water unattended for example, it will rust, right?

"Of course you do."

"The iron that was in the soil in the same way rusts, and it's that color. So if you put that soil on the separation of the alchemy once or twice, I think you can extract only iron. It's just that if there's a lot of iron coming out of a mine that's already abandoned, it'll catch people's attention, right? Besides, I thought there was a problem with alchemy, so I thought there was no body."

"Sure, but... Lyoma, if you think you can, why don't you give it a try? I'm interested, and there's a way to sell it legally without making a scene."

"It's good."

I admitted it quickly.

If the ability to use alchemy is not a problem, I am not particularly willing to keep it a secret. Whatever it is, it's easy to smell alchemy in this world just because Gain used to say it was properly made with the hope of the reincarnators. With a level of elemental and scientific knowledge to learn in Earth's schools, it can be used normally. I think the reason alchemy is not widespread in this world is because of its inadequate knowledge and prejudicial eye.

Honestly, if it's only iron extraction......

What does iron oxide look like? It is oxidized iron.

What is oxidation? that a substance binds to oxygen. In the case of iron oxide, the bond between iron and oxygen.

What is oxygen? Part of the air I'm breathing right now.

What do you do with alchemy? Use magic to remove bound oxygen and return it to iron (reduction).

I think Mr. Reinhardt and the lady can do this right now.

If it's not enough, you can explain the nature of oxygen in more detail. If that's all, it won't take an hour to explain it a few times.

I don't want to teach you details before you even ask me.

If you want to use it yourself, or if you want to be interested in your business, you can do whatever you want. Because even though it was made with the hope of the reincarnated, it's a clean piece of technology in this world.

And after meals.

"Mr. Lyoma, is this all right?

"Yes, thank you"

Draw on the ground the magic formations required for alchemy (shapes that have just written a square in a circle) and place the red soil on top of the magic formations in a stone vessel with some handful that you have prepared.

"I'll start. Don't ever get on top of the line because it's dangerous."

With so much caution, passing magic through the formation, the magic formation shines, creating a membrane of light. The audience did not speak out about this phenomenon and noted it with interest. That's what I was like at first too... I feel like I'm already turning on my computer... maybe I'll make a fuss about turning it on now. I miss you too much.

Oops, I have to work on it without thinking too much...

Alchemy has multiple magic formations by purpose, which are formations for 'separation'. Now when you think about separating only iron oxide from the soil first, the soil rises alone, and the soil is pushed outside the formation. Only the soil passed through the membrane of light here, and when the light went out, only the red-brown grain remained in the vessel in the formation. Using unattributed magic 'appraisal' is certainly iron oxide.

Again this, this time separating oxygen from iron oxide. Then all that remained was a sparkling, silver, sandy object.

Looks like you're going to fly in the wind in this state...... next to the formation of "Separation" draw a formation of "bonds" composed of circles and pentagrams.

There is a limitation that the user can imagine and must know about the substance after binding with the original substance, but this can be used to bind the material above the formation. So if we put this together... Okay.

After examining the chunks made in the appraisal for final confirmation, it turns out that the chunks of iron are 100% pure. Undisputed iron.

... Yeah, I think that's the only proof I'm used to alchemy. I was busy getting excited or thinking about unrealistic phenomena at first. As long as the comparison is in front of you, you know exactly how used you are.

"Mr. Reinhardt, you have succeeded. Make sure."

Handing a chunk to Mr. Reinhardt gazing at me at hand, he did all sorts of stroking and tapping chunks, flipping and putting them in the light before performing the magic of appraisal.

"Iron, yeah, that's iron indeed.... really, I have iron..................... sorry, Mr. Lyoma"

"Huh!? Why are you suddenly apologizing? Keep your head up!

I'm confused by the sudden apology. What happened in this short time?

Although Mr. Reinhardt raised his head, he opens his mouth with a seemingly sorry face.

"Well... the story of generating gold is typical of alchemy fraud. Though I didn't expect you to work fraud, I didn't even think you could do iron. I was wondering about you and your story."

Oh, is that what you're saying?

"Ask me to show it to you, I suspected..."

"If it's similar to the fraudulent method, I don't think you can help but doubt it. I didn't do anything wrong."

"That would help if you said so. Still... the real (...) alchemy is amazing. I can't believe you made iron out of that dirt sand."

"And this iron, it's so beautiful. It's like silver."

"Surely this is what happens when it's made of alchemy?

"Unfortunately, you can't sell this. It does look like real iron, and Lyoma-like alchemy is great..."

It would be because of alchemy, rather than purity. This is a pure mass of iron that has only been collected and consolidated by magic. Ultra-high purity iron is shiny, soft and easy to extend, and has the property of being less rust resistant than regular iron.

And I remember hearing about it on TV news back in the day. I didn't even think of fine dust I would make...... or the news didn't mention 100% ultra high purity iron, but I guess it's because it's magic there. It's strange from the point of separation using magic when considered in the common sense of previous life.

Well, as a matter of putting that aside...... I can think of a solution if I know the problem. If you're too pure, why don't you just drop your purity?

Draw a magic formation of six stars on a circle and put the soil out of the earlier manufacturing process on top of the formation to pass the magic.

The formation of the six stars is a formation for 'mixing', where multiple types of matter are mixed unbiased. Relatively little opportunity to use it, but now I see how it goes thinking if I drop purity...... the color of the lump gradually fades into a blackish shade. Eventually the shade came close to a normal iron product, but this is still not a normal method of making it. Even if it is in bulk with iron, the impurities in it and their amount are different, and if iron contains more carbon, the stickiness is lost and brittle instead of hardness, etc., the difference is made.

I mean, I don't know if it's iron (...) that can be used properly. When I said that, Mr. Reinhardt laughed and told me this.

"Then you can have a merchant you can trust look into it. Lyoma, I'd like to introduce you."

"Is that okay? If you can."

"Of course I did. Then who should...... no or should I be a blacksmith here......?

I'm curious about the quality more than I made it. That's why I did you a favor...

Mr. Reinhardt then begins to concentrate on the consideration of the other person to whom he will bring the story, and becomes non-participating in the afternoon exorcism of the Warcraft.

I have a lady who swelled her cheeks slightly because of that... what should I do?
