The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 350



351 – Magic Stone Bomb

Three days have already passed since I received the Imperial Guardian Golem from Bella. The suggestion to improve the golem was probably sincere, and he was able to examine the golem in more detail thanks to the fact that he even made a copy of the golem’s blueprint.

While comparing the actual product and the blueprint, I randomly wrote down ways to improve the golem as they came to mind.

Perhaps because of the setting that the golem was created by the best magicians on the continent, it was already so close to completion that even I, who had acquired the essence of magicology, was satisfied with finding ways to improve the golem.

If the original form of the golem is close to completion, it is more efficient to strengthen other parts. It didn’t seem like a bad idea to add a separate shell or equip it with a new weapon.

As I was organizing the improvements I had carelessly jotted down in a notebook, the closet door suddenly opened and snow poured into the club room.

He quickly created a dimensional passage and sent the eyes that were about to pour onto the table to another place.

Fortunately, the blueprint was able to be safely kept. I looked around the messed up club room and headed to the snowy mountain beyond the closet to see what had happened.

As always, the snowy mountain was a pure white world. After looking around for a moment, I was able to spot something orange in the pure white snow field. It was the sole of a shoe.

Thinking that it couldn’t be possible, I ran quickly and cleared the surrounding snow, and I saw my ankle with my shoe on. She managed to use her intangible breath to pull out the cane that was buried upside down in her eye.

Still, perhaps because he had been buried in snow for a long time, he did not lose consciousness.

I asked with a dumbfounded look at Kane’s awkward smile.

“What the hell is going on?”

“The experiment was successful… “I didn’t expect an avalanche.”

I was curious about what kind of experiment it was, but seeing Kane shaking all over due to loss of body heat due to being buried in snow, I took him to the club room.

When I offered hot cocoa to Kane, who was covered in a blanket in front of the fireplace, he sniffed it gratefully.

Kane, who must have been tired from the sudden change in temperature, opened his eyes and shook his head vigorously and looked at me.

“Do you know what part of the pension knowledge I gained?”

I asked back a question without context.

“Part?”

“You got a ‘piece’ of the Emerald Tablet. Of course, I gained part of the knowledge stored in the tablet.”

After hearing it, it seemed plausible. If there are no details because it is a discarded setting, probability creates the content. As a result, there were many cases where things were set based on what I thought was the explanation.

That was the characteristic of the setting created by probability. Since it was definitely called a sculpture, I thought it would be okay to set it up that way.

“So which part did you get?”

The existing setting was that even through sculpture, the truth of alchemy could be reached.

As Kane said, even if you have obtained a certain part of alchemy… In that respect, it means that the world’s greatest alchemist is none other than Kane.

Kane nodded and said, somewhat impressed by how easily I accepted his explanation.

“… “It’s closer to synthesis.”

In response, I inadvertently thought of Ellie’s specialty, synthesis magic. I speculated that, similarly, new synthetic substances could be created using alchemical reagents.

Kane had previously used mixed reagents to help in battle, so it was close to luck to get something that fell into a similar category.

“It’s okay. “Mixing reagents was originally your specialty.”

Kane shook his head with a smile at my light answer.

“It’s not okay. “The existing reagent combination methods are basic compared to my knowledge, and my head is full of combination methods that are not in the book.”

I also felt a similar sense of genius, to the point where I was able to find improvements just by looking at the Imperial Palace Guardian Golem, so I could sympathize with Kane’s fuss.

But that wasn’t all, as Kane boasted about his accomplishments to his parents and put something on the table with the look of a child looking for praise.

I shifted my gaze and looked at what Kane had placed on the table. It looks like a stone with a mixture of blue and purple colors.

It looked like an ornament with its brightly wavy shapes drawn on it. Just looking at its appearance, it seemed like it would be sold at a high price at a tourist attraction.

I picked it up, looked around, and asked.

“What is this?”

“It is the most destructive thing I can create with my alchemy knowledge.”

After looking at the stone more closely, I was able to find something similar.

“Could it be a magic stone…?” ?”

“That’s right, a synthetic explosive reagent was absorbed into the magic stone.”

So does that mean what I’m holding in my hand is a bomb? She put down what she was holding as carefully as possible, and Kane smiled at her.

“are you okay. “It will never explode unless you insert magical energy into it to activate the magic stone.”

As he said that and saw him hitting the magic stone with his fist as hard as he could, I involuntarily swore and quickly grabbed Kane’s arm.

It hit so hard that the blanket covering Kane’s shoulders fell to the floor.

“This is crazy. “Don’t you know that if it explodes, we will all die together?”

“Hey, it won’t explode? “Don’t you know what I made?”

“Did a guy like that cause an avalanche and almost die? “If it weren’t for me, you would have frozen to death.”

“… “Thank you for that.”

I sighed as I saw him sipping his cocoa as if he had nothing to say. I felt like I now understood a little bit what was going through Ellie’s mind as she had warned me several times about my safety.

I know he did it because he was confident that Kane wouldn’t explode, but it was scary. Like an avalanche, people don’t know what to do.

“So how much power is it?”

“Is this alone enough to cause an avalanche on a snowy mountain?”

Kane, who responded playfully, stroked his chin and thought seriously.

“Is this too vague an expression? Hmm, just think of this as blowing up the club room.”

“… “Did you hit something like that?”

“That’s because they said it wouldn’t explode.”

I sighed as he calmly shrugged his shoulders, but I was able to realize how amazing Kane’s invention was. The knowledge of magic gained through quantum jump also includes alchemy and magic.

Thanks to this, I was able to see the value of Kane’s invention. The magic stone bomb itself was a new invention that could not be found similar to it.

“How long does it take to make one?”

While drinking the remaining cocoa, Kane was lost in thought for a moment. Kane, who was tapping the mug she was holding as if making calculations in her head, opened her mouth.

“It was made for experimental purposes, so if you make it properly into a finished product, it will take about 5 minutes per piece. “If we create something like an alchemy workshop that can produce in large quantities, up to 5 items per 5 minutes will be possible.”

I was impressed by Kane’s explanation without even realizing it. If you can produce this consistently, it means that it is possible to take on an army alone.

If they get to know Bella and Raelan, they will definitely plan to make a large number of magic stone bombs, even if it means kidnapping Kane.

The most important thing is that the magic stone bomb is simple to use. Just inject magic power into the magic stone and throw it like a grenade and that’s it.

Amazing power with simple usage. Kane can become the new Nobel of this world.

I couldn’t shake the feeling that this magic stone bomb would be of great help in future fights. I suppressed my excitement as much as possible and proposed making magic stone bombs in large quantities.

However, Kane seemed reluctant to make large quantities of highly dangerous magic stone bombs.

It was a natural reaction from the student’s point of view, as the continent had been unified in the past and no war had occurred for a long time, and on the outside it seemed as though peace would continue.

It’s natural that you don’t want your invention to get in trouble.

But what if we used it to save people, rather than hurting them? I persuaded Kane on that point.

The northern wall and eastern border were still subject to frequent monster invasions.

He convinced them that people could live safely if they used magic stone bombs, and that if the purchase and use of magic stone bombs were strictly controlled, there would be no harm to the general public.

After much thought, Kane finally nodded. It was crucial to be able to reduce the damage to soldiers dealing with monsters.

There were many Transcendence Academy seniors working at the northern wall and eastern border.

As if that wasn’t the only reason, Kane muttered while looking at the fireplace.

“I have received great help from you that I cannot repay, so I must repay at least a little.”

“There is no need to feel that burden.”

Kane just smiled and shrugged his shoulders at my blunt answer. Kane, who had finished drinking all of her cocoa, asked as she put down her glass.

“So how do you plan on making magic stone bombs in large quantities? It costs a lot of money to create an alchemy workshop, and purchasing the magic stones used in large quantities is difficult for those of us who have no connection to the Magic Tower.”

Now that he has made up his mind, he seems to be seriously thinking about starting a business. At the very least, to run a business, you needed basic funds that could withstand even a half-year deficit. Because it takes time for a business to establish itself.

Fortunately, thanks to the special nature of the magic stone bomb, there was no need to worry about this problem.

“You just need to invest the magic stone bomb where it is most needed.”

Because I already had a good business plan in my head.

“That would be nice, but… “Will anyone invest in us when we have nothing right now?”

I nodded confidently at Kane’s puzzled face.

“If you are the best family in the North, you would be sufficient as a business partner.”

We can use the Praks family, who will be our biggest customers.
