Lately Jin has been thinking about something. That is a stove. In Kaina Village⌠no, in this world, firewood is typically used for cooking.
ăA ăMagic Crystală as I thought⌠no, itâs a ăMagic Stoneă I needă
ďźIt canât be helped, whatâs done is done. Hmm, from my hypothesis, the substance of magic power is a particle made up of neutrons and protons that form a nucleus. It should have a similar position to a ăRadioisotopeăďź
ďźThat is to say, it has a similar concentration to uranium, however there is no materials or equipment for itďź
If it was the laboratory, Jin could make a magic element concentration device, but this was Kaina Village so it couldnât be helped.
ăOnii-chan, can we go play?ă
ăAh, yeah, thatâs right. Where should we go?ă
To the south of the village is the Erume River, a big river that supposedly runs to the capital. However, there are several waterfalls along the way so it wasnât used for transportation by water, was what he heard from Roland.
So the two changed into their swimwear and headed to the river. Well the swimwear wasnât much different from underwear though. Incidentally, Hanna didnât have a problem with only wearing the bottom so Jin didnât worry about it either.
ăAh! Itâs Jin-niichan! Hanna too!ă
ăIt isnât good to suddenly enter the river. You should splash a little water on your body and slowly enter.ă
He warned Hanna and Jin slowly entered the river. The place to swim was a deep area with gentle flow. Well itâs not really that deep, the width is 20 metres and the deep areas are only about 3 metre in depth.
ăYeah⌠it really doesă
ăPua!ă
The mischievous Kurt came and squirted some water.
ăYou canât catch me~ă
ăMe too! Me too!ă
ăCaught you Hanna-chan!ă
ăThe only one left is⌠Kurt?ă
ăAlright!ă
Kurt was caught near the bottom by Mario who was skilled at swimming. At that time, Kurt was flailing about, and the sand at the bottom rolled up. Seeing that, an idea flashed in Jinâs head.
The children who finished playing got out of the water. Because it was nearly time for lunch, everyone returned home.
ăOkay~ă
ăFuuâŚă
ďźAn atom with a lot of neutrons must be heavy, so an atom with a surplus of the substance of magic power should be heavy too. If thatâs the case then sifting it should be possible like the gold dust underwaterďź
Hearing Hanna call out, Jin snapped out of his thoughts. Because he pondered too long in the hot water, he returned to Marthaâs house while sweating. Hanna had a refreshed face.
Martha told him.
Jin said in the same usual tone, bitterly smiling.
Now the afternoon, Jin came alone to the Erume River once again. As for Hanna, she was taking a nap.
Muttering that, he entered the water. In his hand was a large bowl.
This technique of picking gold dust is called ăPanningă. Of course Jin didnât have the experience in doing this, but he has seen it being done on the television. â
ăăAnalyseă⌠yep, a fire attribute ăMagic Stoneă. It has a higher grade than I thought it wouldă
ăHmm, maybe thereâs some relation with what comes out of the hot spring. But, well, this was unexpectedly fortunateă
For that day, Jin continued to collect the ăMagic Stoneă until dusk when Hanna came to find him.
The next day, Jin secluded himself in the workshop. This time he was using iron-based materials. Handling fire is dangerous so although he felt bad about it, he had Hanna go out to play alone.
Recalling the form of the general cassette stove, Jin transformed the iron into an iron plate. Once again, he thought magic was convenient. Being able to precisely do it to this point was because he was the ăMagi Craft Meisteră, however he did not realise that.
Although the prototype is in the form of a cassette stove, he hoped the final form would be a gas range.
The first thing he noticed when making it was the adjustment of the heating. The magic power supplied to the ăMagic Stoneă could be adjusted with a knob he implemented.
Bringing the finished stove, Jin went to where Martha was. Just in time, Martha was beginning to prepare for lunch. She had fetched some firewood to boil the pot.
He asked Martha who stopped her hand holding firewood,
ăWell yes⌠this is a ăstoveă, it can boil and stew food without firewoodă
ăThatâs right. Could you try and use it?ă
Placing the stove on top of the kitchen table, he put the pot filled with water on the trivet.
Martha then opened her eyes wide,
she said in great joy, and Jin was glad.
But to Martha, this magic tool, the ăstoveă is revolutionary.
After several days of testing the prototype, there were no problems, so he made stoves to go around the village. Jin taught them the method to collect the magic stones for replacing them, and all the homes in the village were very thankful for it.\n
