“So you’re the Satou fellow Hiya mentioned? Sure, you can check things out.”

The next morning, after I’d finished two more void suits in the sewing workshop, I came to a magic-tool studio that Hishirotoya had introduced me to.

Of course, my goal was to help make the controller devices for the suits.

Once the studio owner, Mr. Kiya, agreed to have me, Hishirotoya left with a smile.

I’d already explained the circumstances and gotten permission to take the day off from training.

If only my manager at my old job had agreed to give paid time off so easily…

I shook off that desolate thought and focused on observing as Kiya and his apprentices made magic tools.

Unlike when humans made magic tools, most of the elves seemed to use alchemy and magic at the same time.

“You fool! How many times have I told you to mind the temperature when handling breathgrass?!”

“I’m sorry.”

“This endothermic liquid is terrible quality! Make it again! We can’t afford much more of this.”

“Yes, sir.”

I heard quite a few of these exchanges.

I could do this so much better…, I thought, like a classic anime protagonist.

Maybe I was just frustrated because the work here was getting bottlenecked so easily.

Kiya and his apprentices had just finished the first magic circuit, the core of the magic tool.

“Mr. Kiya, would it be all right if I help out, too?”

“Huh? It’s not as easy as it looks, you know.”

“Yes, I am well aware.”

In fact, Kiya’s demands of his apprentices were so intense, they would probably fail if their “Transmutation” skill wasn’t at least level 7.

“Fine, then. Just don’t get in the way.”

With his permission, I began to help.

“Satou! Contest!”

Mia’s childhood friend Goya appeared at the door, but…

“You moron! Making magic tools isn’t a game! Come back when you can make a basic magic circuit!”

…Kiya sent him running home with tears in his eyes. I felt a little bad.

For now, though, it was time to help out.

Any time one of the apprentices looked about to fail, I sneakily helped fine-tune the large transmutation equipment, used the Air Control spell to manipulate the temperature, and so on.

“Hmm. This just barely gets passing marks.”

Once we’d finished making components that met Kiya’s high standards, we started putting it all together.

The rest of the process was all in the hands of Kiya and his highest-level apprentices, all of whom had a “Transmutation” skill level of 9 or above, so my help wasn’t needed.

Relieved, I set about stealing their techniques instead.

I was able to figure out the process from the raw materials to the completed product, so all I needed now was the equipment and I’d be able to mass-produce void suits all on my own.

However, the team was able to finish the required amount of magic equipment for the void suits with about three hours left before sunset, so I didn’t end up needing to butt in.

Miss Doa, one of the main staff of the studio, brought the completed void suit magic tools to the sewing workshop along with two of the apprentices.
