CHAPTER 150: EXPERIMENTS ARE THE ORIGIN OF SUCCESS

I drank with Ash till evening . Then,

「Hyahaa~! Boss, thanks for today~」

Ash got drunk .

「………are you ok?」
「I-I’m fine~…… . ! It’s just that I was drinkin’ around this strong magic, so my body got drunk… . . If I go to the plains those bastards that were at the rabbits’ shop should be waiting………I’m fine…」

It doesn’t sound like you’re fine . If he happens to meet a monster along the way back, he’d probably be in trouble…that’s right… .

「Just in case, I can have my golem send you back . 」


「Hya hyahha~, is that ok!?」
「You told me quite a bit after all . 」

I’d received information about Manaril’s public popularity and her fan base amongst men and women . I should return the favor .

「Golem . See him into town . 」

I had made a golem around the same size as Ash .
If it guided him back, he should be safe . It was set to come back automatically, so recovery of it was easy as pie .

「U, ussu, thanks see ya」
「It’s fine, be careful on the way back~」

Ash headed off into the forest unsteadily . Along the way he got his feet caught on roots and plants, tripping along, while every now and then slamming into a tree .

I was a bit worried if he’d make it back to town by himself…but the golem could carry him, so it should be fine . His friends should be at the plain . 」

「Ok then, I should do my own things . 」

After seeing him off, I went and sat down on a bench in the garden . I had to continue what I was doing before, improving the composite golem .

………thanks to the large group of people that would be expected to show up, I had to be careful of how large I made it .

If I made it too big and heavy, then it would be both intimidating and dangerous . I kept that thought in my head as I continued working .

「Well, let’s try some different things . 」

Since it was a prototype, I didn’t have to worry about how it would turn out . Today alone I had made around 6 different prototypes and they were lined up in the garden .

……I was in the process of confirming what shape and style had the best performance and ability . It was a bit fun molding the different ones .

From time to time a very strangely shaped one would pop out, but that was fun in itself .
So I kept going .

… . . I wanted to complete as much as I could before dinner tonight .

And so I continued to work with the wood and water until…

「…… . umm, why, is all this craziness, out here?」

Hesty came out of her cabin and stared at the fifth prototype with wide eyes .

「Yo Hesty . Did you finish with that wand?」
「n, I did, but…what’s this? I can feel a lot of magic, but it is also, whirling and winding, inside of it . 」

Ohh? So she could understand even before I explained .
Hesty is as sharp as ever and as quick to understand .

「This one has half water and half apple juice in it . As it walks around, it mixes it pretty well . 」

I thought it was pretty good . The insides of the wood kept it reasonably cool and having it mixed as well made it quite delicious .

Well, while it walked around it got strangely flexible and bendy…so it might be kind of scary looking too .

「So, that’s how it became like this…… . the water and juice are, strengthening the magic, in the wood, and it becomes amazing . Both the hardness, and flexibility are, strange . 」
「I made it harder so that it wouldn’t leak . Oh wait…maybe I can strengthen the liquid I put inside?」

But…being harder is good . Makes it easier to carry things .

「n… . . even if you hit it with that big rock over there, I don’t think there would be, a single crack . It has high, battle power . 」

As she said, I had the golem hit the rock . Then, just as she said, it didn’t have a single crack, while the stone was crushed . I’m glad that it was properly toughened up…however,

「It’s just a juice server…so I don’t think it really needs battle power?」
「n~……well, yeah . You’re right…… . . I’ve decided to stop caring, that your things for everyday, necessities have high, battle power . 」

Hesty said as I saw her looking at me with an dreadful look in her eyes . Is this golem really that strange?

…… . in that case I should remodel it some more .

I was already satisfied with the fingers and the like…but let’s work things out step-by-step .
