Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 113: Security System of Bohd Village

Because I planned to stay at Bohd Village for 10 days, I decided to use this chance to strengthen the security system of the village.

The protective walls had already been extended and strengthened as part of that.

「I plan to make security golems with Laeva today.」

「Indeed, a village living abundantly in a remote region is rare, therefore it might perhaps be an easy target for thieves and bandits.」

「Master, Kaede will rest in Subspace today.」

「Un, you must be tired. Rest well.」

「Then maybe I should ask Titan to make a stone oven so I can bake some pizza.」

「Pizza! You eat pizza?」

Hearing Maria say the word pizza, Akane-san’s eyes sparkled. I wonder if she didn’t get to eat anything decent in Sydnia. She has extreme reactions when it comes to food.

「Then how about Marnie-san, Akane-san, and I make pizza?」

「Lulu will help too.」

If I make a stone oven, the villagers can probably use it too.

「Now then, how many do we need?」

「Wouldn’t two at the gate be alright?」

「…… right, the village is small so two would be enough, huh.」

Laeva and I packed the golems that will be used for security with all sorts of specifications. The golems’ size, materials, equipment, and AI’s capabilities.

「Let’s make it 2m 50cm tall, with an adamantite alloy skeleton and magic steel exterior.」

「Their equipment will be a spear and a large shield, correct?」

These security golems will prioritize protection so the large shields are a must. The weapon with long reach could be a spear.

「Let’s not go with a spear but an axe-like spear, the halberd. Another choice would be to carry a long mace.」

「Quite fiendish, isn’t it?」

「Right? 2m 50cm bodies brandishing a halberd and long mace. Just by imagining it makes me not wanna fight it.」

「It will need a large magic stone, wouldn’t it?」

「No, we need them to absorb magic power from the surroundings automatically, so we have to process magic crystals.」

「One magic crystal for the magic power tank battery and one to be used by the golem, so two?」

「No, I want two for the magic power tank.」

As we continued without idle hands, we worked on the finer specifications.

「If these two are here, wouldn’t they be alright even against the likes of ogres?」

「Pretty much. The objective is around that.」

「………… thieves and bandits will become pitiful.」

It would certainly be overkill.

「Will a Rocket Punch like Titan’s be added?」

「No, let’s leave out any complicated mechanisms. We can’t do maintenance, after all.」

The truth is that I want to fit in a projectile weapon, but I’ll have to pass because I can’t come to do maintenance either. I actually also wanted to equip them with controllable magic jet thruster that Titan is equipped with, but I can’t maintain these either so I gave up.

「It’s a genuine stone oven.」

「There’s one in the garden of the mansion as well.」

Titan built the stone oven with Earth magic.

At that time, Laeva was called in to transmute it so that the stone oven can withstand high temperatures.

「Laeva-san’s alchemy is amazing.」

「It’s still not enough when compared to Takumi-sama’s alchemy. But I am Takumi-sama’s assistant, so Takumi-sama would be disappointed in me if I can’t do something of this extent.」

Once Laeva nimbly finished transmuting the stone oven to withstand high temperatures like fire bricks do, she returned to golem making.

「Now then, let’s make pizza dough.」

「「Yes.」」

Maria and Marnie were given their individual magic bags. Inside it were lots of food, equipment, and materials stored away.

Maria took out wheat flour from the Magic Bag and they began making the dough. Akane-san and Lulu-chan were also happily kneading the dough together, seemingly having fun. The fermentation time of dry yeast would quickly be reduced with alchemy, so they discussed what toppings to put as they worked.

.

Because they started working on a table outside the cabin, the stone oven that suddenly crafted was discovered by the village wives and it was decided that we would be having lunch together with Martha-san and the other wives. The village men left for work, so today’s lunch would be an all-girls + me gathering.

Having received thread from Kaede yesterday, each of the wives had brought produce, like vegetables or wheat, with them when they came.

The wives clamored as the food came on plates. Laeva and I stopped working on the golems momentarily and made tables and chairs with the remaining wood. The village wives that came were not a lot but the furniture was not enough. Even so, not all the wives are here, but they might increase. The ones gathered here today are the wives and children I was acquainted with during my time here.

「Takumi-chan, sorry about this~ For you to feed us something rare.」

「Right right, this is my first time eating this.」

「It’s alright. Even when we return to Volton, please feel free to use this stone oven.」

We explained how the stone oven is used with a demonstration. Since I’m trying to make other things at the same time as the pizza to show everyone how to cook in a stone oven, they’ll probably be able to use it properly even after we’ve returned home.

After the lively lunch, Laeva and I went back to making the security golems. That being said, we work in the widened cabin so we simply went back inside.

We completed the skeleton and exterior that day, and the remaining work was pushed to tomorrow. Engraving the core takes considerable time even for me.

As we passed the time in Bohd village, not knowing if we’re on vacation or if we’re working, Sydnia was looking for the runaway hero. And the Kamui unit and the intelligence unit were receiving false eye witness reports in towns and villages in various countries. This was set up by Margrave Volton and his Majesty, which had caused chaos in Sydnia where they couldn’t receive accurate information. As a result, Sydnia would have had to dispatch many personnel all over the continent, and that led to them effectively abandoning the hero pursuit.
