Chapter 109.2. Meetings Make Me Sleepy

“A wooden monster, and level 50, is a dungeon boss. You can’t do that, can you?”

If it’s a wooden monster. They would probably try to defeat it with fire magic. And the materials would be charred black.

“Yes, that’s right. It wouldn’t be realistic. That’s why the Substitution Charm has fallen into disuse, but they can find low-level wood monster Lesser Treant in several controlled dungeons.”

“Hm? And you make paper out of it? Hmmm… I see, that rings a bell. You’re talking about making a low-level Substitution Charm, right? But hasn’t that been tried before? And the symbols are still being used for construction and stuff, right?”

“The level of treants is so low that even if you try to make magic paper, it’s just paper.”

“The marks used for construction work cost at least 500,000 yen, young lady. And the paper as material costs 100,000 yen.”

This time, I was blown away by the grinning grin of Grandpa Odin. It’s the new human Mii-chan. The price that Frigg-oneesan checked on the terminal was at least 100,000 yen. That’s what it would be.

“You use the Magic Flower Cosmo grown at the Gardo farm to make paper! And ink and brushes are so much easier to get than paper.”

I scuff my fingers, and my muffled cheeks turn red as I understand the story. Mii-chan’s fingers are tiny, so I couldn’t make them snap.

If you mix the petals of the Magic Flower Cosmo grown in the Quality Improvement Potion I farm, the quality of the paper is the lowest, but it will be better by 1. So I can create magic paper (lowest quality).

And the Substitution Charm will be able to prevent about 10 damage? Well, 2 or 3 are fine. The key is that it can prevent that much damage at a low level.

If it’s a dungeon, there are many low-level monsters to use as materials for ink and brushes, compared to wooden monsters. There would be no problem creating them.

“Oh, I understand. So you can create the lowest level of the Substitution Charm. In today’s world of magical armor, it wouldn’t be difficult to find a third-rate onmyoji family that is in need.”

“Umm, a venture company Uruhara that deals with magic materials and other bio-related products has noticed the nurturing effect of the Gardo Farm. Then, they would make an exclusive contract with the onmyoji family, which is secretly in need, and ask Gardo Farm to grow the Magic Flower Cosmo, and they would start selling Substitution Charms. I think we can create them at a reasonable price. The key is that even a third-rate onmyoji master can create them.”

TN: any idea to translate ウルハラ?

There are many third-rate onmyoji masters. He said that they would be very happy to sign a contract.

“I’ll be selling scapegoats to adventurers who can’t afford magic armor. For a few thousand yen a piece, adventurers will buy them for fear of being injured if they can shoulder a small portion of the damage. And if we calculate that the magicians in the production system would also buy them just in case they were injured, we can expect a huge demand for them, considering that they’re consumables.”

“So the venture is going to inject its efforts into creating other magical tools from the huge success caused by the Substitution Charm. As a venture, but as a company that makes weapons.”

“In conjunction with that, the value of the Gardo farm will also be eclipsed, right? I’m sure other research institutions will realize the true benefits of Gardo Farm.”

If the company was publicly traded, I bet it would be a daily stop.

“Mmmmmm, my love, and fertility whisper to me. And even more so when the venture security company Ein, which will guard Gardo Farm and Uruhara, appears.”

They’re all venture companies. Maybe it’s the heyday of venture firms.

“If they’re security companies, it wouldn’t be surprising if they have their private armies.”

“I know people who specialize in intelligence gathering, so let’s hire them, shall we? And people who are deficient and retired adventurers would be good too. I’m sure a little girl who happens to be on a social tour will fix them up.”

“And if the Takano family’s transportation business gets involved, everyone will be happy!”

.

I’ll leave it to Frigg-oneesan to decide how to get involved. Well, you could be involved in the transportation of magic flowers and various other transactions in the future.

“If I can make this story work, I wonder if I can get some shares in the Takano family’s transportation business. Yes, you will be able to get some.”

This is a great result. That’s what I’m talking about, Grandpa Odin and Frigg-oneesan. They’re indeed the best of the best, working to generate multiple benefits for a single idea. I am so glad I summoned them.

So, Frigg-oneesan. Don’t take over the Takano family’s transportation business, okay?

“Now, I wonder if the foundation for Mii-chan Corps has been laid?”

“Yes, it does. I think it’s good. I’ll be busy for a while to recruit people.

I will look into how to make a low-cost Substitution Charm. And I’ve almost finished analyzing Anemoi. Feel free to use it.

“Yes. I’ll disassemble the Anemoi and create my magic armor!”

With that, we end today’s weekly meeting.

Good night~.
