In early December, I was sitting in the driver’s seat of a carriage bound for Houga Village.
"No, more accurately, I was sitting on Schuyler's lap."
When I discussed the matter of returning home with the chariot crew, they said that they would lend me a carriage after the orc plan's crusade request was completed.
The coachman asked Gad to do it, but when I did it, Shure stepped up and continues to this day.
“The Hua Wu Ming is very warm and has cushions and a windproof layer underneath, so it’s perfect.”
Since I was going to be a driver, I wanted to use my natural magic to make the journey as comfortable as possible, and Shure was in a good mood because he could have me all to himself.
Behind the carriage were Grandma Karisha, Zeol, a souvenir for the family, and her brother.
At first, my brother was reluctant to go to Houxiang, but he convinced his mother that if he let me see how he was doing, he would feel relieved and take him with him.
The brother was kneading the soil behind the carriage.
Watching the craftsmen in the pottery workshop skillfully harden the clay into disks and install them on the plates, I thought that if my brother's modeling skills were improved, the scope of his career would be expanded.
So I asked him to try making a magic circle out of clay, but judging from the results, he was pretty clumsy.
Not to mention the magic circle, even the production of the disc was not smooth. The outer circumference was shaky and the thickness was uneven.
I don't know if it's because I'm clumsy to begin with, or if it's because I haven't used magic in over five years since I left the lair.
When I asked Gad, who is also an earth attribute, to make a CD, I was even more unflattering, so I feel that the familiarity and proficiency of modeling have a great influence.
So, while leveling the front yard of the base, my brother began to practice modeling.
All magic circles are based on circles, so start by making a clean disk, and once you've mastered it, you can carve concentric circles into the disk.
I don’t know how long it will take for the pattern to form, and even if a magic circle is formed out of clay, the carving magic cannot be activated.
The air contains a large amount of magical essence that can activate magic, but the soil does not contain much.
If you grind the magic stone into powder and mix it, you may be able to activate the carving magic, but there is no cost advantage.
As for other methods of use, monster fangs, horns, bones and other materials that allow magic to pass through can be ground into powder, mixed with soil, and hardened into the shape of a magic circle, which can be used as a magic tool. ...
Currently, the most commonly used magic tools are made by carving a magic circle on a lithograph or the like, filling it with powder of a material that allows magic power to pass through, and hardening it.
I feel that adding soil will reduce the effectiveness of the magic weapon, and if it is just a powder material, can it be shaped with earth attribute magic, or if it can be shaped, will it be hardened, etc.
"For now, it looks like I'm going to have to try a variety of things while mainly focusing on plugging the rat holes."
The carriage moved gently along the northern road.
Normally, there would be three tall men standing here, holding large shields, armors and other equipment, as well as orcs on their way to subjugation. But today, because there were only a few people and luggage, the carriage itself was very light.
We passed through Kushiro Village before noon and arrived at Auga Village just as the sun was setting.
He said he didn't want to go home, but as he approached the village, he stood behind the driver's station and stared at the road ahead.
After entering the village, he was supposed to go to the village chief's house to say hello, but he took a detour first.
"Grandma, are you there?"
"Hua Wuming, is it Hua Wuming!"
When I called out from the back door, Grandma Karisha ran out from behind.
"Grandma, I'm back."
"Ah, Hua Wu Ming, Hua Wu Ming"
Grandma Carissa's voice broke off as she hugged me.
"You have become excellent, you have become excellent"
"Grandma, what are you talking about?
"No, it's not like that. I know, it's not like that. You must have built a place well in Ibrox and come back proud."
True, Grandma Carissa said her purpose was to make money so her family could spend the winter comfortably, but she wanted to see me now, too.
The reason why my brother is reluctant to return to the village is probably because he feels the opposite.
"Hua Wuming, who is that person?"
"Hua Wuming's wife, Shuer"
"Hey, have you found your wife!?"
"Grandma, you must be kidding me, Schuler was a colleague at the party."
"What, don't be surprised, your short lifespan will be shortened."
"Even if this is true"
"Yeah, yeah, just kidding, help me take off the souvenirs."
"Muu, what's wrong with Hua Wuming?"
Fluffy futons, thick sweaters, flour, salt, sugar, honey, dried sausages, cheese, tea, Ibro’s popular baked snacks. I sent many souvenirs to prevent grandma from getting into trouble before spring came. .
"I can't get that much"
"No, no, we can't come back until the next time the snow melts."
"Really, don't spend your money on this old woman, use it on yourself."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I can use it however I want, that's all."
I told Grandma Karissa and she was surprised that I was going to stay in the village for a few days and could visit her in the future, so I went to the village chief's house.
I greeted the village chief, gave him roasted sugar and tea, and asked him to leave his carriage and horses for the duration of my stay.
"Oh, you're back"
"Long time no see, Mr. Zeol."
"Are you a member of Chariot?"
"I am Hua Wuming's wife"
"bride!"
Mr. Zeol's eyes widened in surprise at Schuller's joke.
"Schul and I didn't get along by any means, but it was easy for everyone to believe."
"Mr. Zeol, you must be joking. You are so surprised."
"Oh, so it seems like your skills are pretty good."
"try out?"
Perhaps Schuler also noticed Zeol's behavior and became more active.
"I want to do that too, but I'm going to the goblin's lair tomorrow, so I'll see you next time."
"Mr. Zeol, I'll go too."
'I can't afford the per diem'
"I don't need to. And there are things I want to try."
"Haha, let's see how things go."
I gave Mr. Zeol three kinds of tea and two new travel diaries.
"Last but not least, I can take a carriage ride to my parents' house."
"We've been home for two months and what can I say, it's shabby."
"I remembered, does Shure have a place to sleep tonight?"
"I'm at home"
"Hua Wuming, why are you back?"
"Uh dad, don't you need pocket money in the winter?"
"What, you, tell me quickly. Where, where?"
Although he greeted her with a displeased expression, her expression turned fawning when she heard it was a remittance.
"Even if you are my biological father, don't be so pitiful."
Most of all, my body would shiver and freeze when Shull came through the entrance and looked down at me.
"Nia, how about Hua Wuming?"
"Hua Wu Ming's"
"It's Schuler, my colleague at the party. He's the driver."
"I, is that so? Hi, I am Hua Wuming's father."
Basically, my dad was vulnerable to people taller than him, but it got worse when we first met.
Moreover, he must have been impressed by Shu'er's warrior aura.
By the way, since I entered the room, my eldest brother has been watching from the corner of the room without saying a word.
Just one look at Shure and I convinced me that people share a certain level of shyness.
"Is this Hua Wuming, welcome back?"
Her mother came out of the back room where she was working on her side job and was stunned when she saw Shuer.
"Yeah, my family is so useless."
"Shur is now a member of the same party and a B-class adventurer."
"I'm Schuyler.
"Yes, I am Hua Wuming's mother. Nice to meet you."
I didn't know what to do when Schuler said I'd be the driver, but it would get even more confusing if Gad was here.
"In a sense, that's probably the right answer."
"I-I'm home"
"Fox, what have you done since you didn't write to me?"
“Lots of noisy things”
"All kinds of things for you"
"Dad, I have a lot of stuff to send, please help me unload it. I have flour, salt, sugar, and a new futon."
"W-what futon?"
"To be honest, it was so much cash that even my parents didn't like it."
Or rather, sadly, when the futons were unloaded from the carriage and the whole family was immersed in the futons, only Shure and I were left.
Looking at his ecstatic mother and sister lying on the futon, Shure shook his hands, but let’s just pretend we didn’t see them.
