Chapter 2019: Park Date ⑬
Chapter 2019: Park Date ⑬
Also, today is the release date of the manga's Volume 9, so I'd be happy if you'd pick it up if you like.
Come to think of it, it all started as a complete whim. The day before going to the café with Illness-san, I suddenly had an idea.
[……Alice, do you still have that accessory-making kit we used before?]
[Yep, got it here. Actually, with Makina's Heart Tool, I can just reproduce it……]
[Makina-san's Heart Tool? Eh, Makina-san has a Heart Tool too?]
[Yes, well, it's kinda useless for an Omnipotent and Omniscient God like her, and it's not suitable for combat at all, but she has the ability to reproduce anything that's not a living being. It's pretty convenient, actually. It takes a while to reproduce things, but with Space-Time magic, we can shorten that, so it practically takes zero time. It's certainly handy for reproducing handmade items like this that take a lot of effort to make…… Also, the only cost for reproduction is magic power, and with the amount of magic power I have, I can reproduce stuff as much as I want.]
That sounds like a pretty amazing ability…… Ahh, no, but Makina-san could directly create stuff, so there's no need for her to go out of her way to use her Heart Tool huh…… She’s Omnipotent anyway, so she could probably create things endlessly without even using it.
[……I mean, wouldn't that solve the cost issue with the kit……][Yeah, but even if I put it in my shop, it wouldn't sell well. And even if I consign it somewhere else, reproducing and delivering it regularly is a hassle, so I don't really care…… In the first place, I made this kit back when DIY accessories got popular. The boom's over now, so even if it does sell, it’d only be so-so.]
[Well, I guess you're right. If people are going to spend a lot of money on a kit, most would rather just buy professionally-made accessories……]
Even though it's possible to mass-produce, considering the balance of distribution, that kit uses various expensive materials and would likely still be quite costly.
……Well, anyhow, I'm glad I managed to get my hands on a regular kit. Now I can make what I need.
[Kaito-san, do you have any high-quality rose quartz?]
[……I'll buy it.]
[Thank you for the patronage~~]
Even though I didn’t explicitly mention why I needed the accessories, Alice seemed to understand the purpose and swiftly brought out the perfect gemstone. As expected, she's particularly sharp when it comes to business, at least when she's targeting me.
In any case, now I should be able to make the accessory as a gift for Illness-san. Last time, during Archlesia Empire's Founding Festival, I didn’t make one for her since she wasn’t my lover at the time…… but since I've already gifted accessories to all my other lovers, it would feel wrong not to give her one as well.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [……Now that his relationship experience has leveled up, he's now actively taking steps to initiate lovey-dovey moments himself……]
