17. Shaiza Invention Shop (4)

17, Shaiza Invention Shop (4)

“Hello! Good morning today!”

Smile. Today’s Professor Marina May was more tense than usual. Is that all she is? Her skin looked firmer than usual, and the dark circles around her eyes were gone, which looked good. At this level, she would be able to place herself in the category of success without even asking.

Yesterday, right before I left, I stopped by the main building of the Shaiza Class Education Building, handed over the “Scented Candle of Life” To Marina, and went back to her greenhouse. She said it was a work of great care and encouraged me to try it.

After her morning assembly, she asked her to meet her privately.

“Scented candles? hehehe, incense? I was just lying down smelling the scent, and I could feel my fatigue being lifted! I used it believing that it was the work of a Woros student, and it is a really nice item.”

“If you sell this, do you think it will sell well?”

“Uh, you want to do business? I’ll bet you. No matter how many you give out, they will all sell out. By the way, student Woros, what effect does scented candle have, right?”

I nodded. The better you explain scented candles to Marina, the better. There is a high possibility that they will find out the parts to be improved, so I decided to tell them all. Of course, while keeping quiet about magic gardening.

“Su, with strawberries that have lost moisture… Jumping bees?”

“Yes, I used a magical oil that I got by chance. With flip-flop bees, you can harvest a lot of waxy berries while using less oil.”

“Chuck, you are genius! It’s a work that captured the part where the bees share mana and copy the nature of magical power!”

“The magic that dwells in it is physical recovery and mental stability. Due to the nature of the material, it also has an air purifying effect. The problem is… Professor, your skin seems to have improved, but that part was unintentional.”

Marina smiles as she puts her palm on her own cheek, as if hearing her say that her skin is good makes her feel better.

“Since I fall asleep while smelling the scent of strawberries, I can sleep well. Fatigue also recovers. My skin seems to have improved naturally. hehehe, I’m glad you’ve been tired lately.”

“Is that so? I’m glad you like it.”

“Student Woros, can you sell me a few more? I can’t live without scented candles any longer!”

“We will guide you when the store opens. Thank you Professor Marina. It helped me a lot.”

I bowed politely to Marina and left her classroom. The supply and demand of beeswax strawberries, the raw material, is in a good situation. The problem is the glass bottle. Right now I’m making things using laboratory glass bottles, but I want to use pretty looking glass bottles.

Anyway, when I earn money, I think I need to invest a little bit. Like this work, if you properly combine commercially available materials and magical gardening, you can create a lot of pretty practical items, so the business prospects are good.

The problem is, when you become famous for your business, there is a high possibility that someone will target your skills. If they were followed, the possibility that Would be revealed could not be ignored. Actually part 2 of the original. In Act 4, Romantic Inventor, a graduate student from Shaiza follows a freshman on the path of magic engineering in order to steal her technology.

“For that reason, I plan not to go out whenever possible. Please take care of me, Nishia.”

“Yes? If you tell me what secret you want to keep, I will obey.”

“I’ll tell you when the time is right, this is a promise. Nishia please.”

“Grunt… If it comes out like that, you can’t refuse it. All right. Got it.”

“It has been decided.”

I lit one of the finished scented candles and placed it on her workbench. This will get rid of the musty smell. At the end of such a busy work, Nishia and I, who were ready, headed to the shop. A shop located in an alley in the market hall of Shaiza. Not only is it dark, but even the people passing by are small.

“I don’t know if business will go well.”

“It will be fine. Maybe it’s rather fortunate that it’s a corner. I can avoid hearing hateful comments about ruining business because of us.”

“Senior, aren’t you too optimistic? What… My senior said so, so I’ll say yes.”

Nishia takes out her parchment and sticks it to her wall. On the paper, “Shaiza Invention Shop” Was written.

“I wonder if the name is too plain.”

“No. Where is this place, if you give it a rough name and put Shaiza in front of it, it’s a place that will work.”

I entered the shop, but today is not an official business day. I currently have 30 scented candles, including the amount I made. Isn’t it an insufficient quantity to open a store? That’s why today I plan to do business mainly with my acquaintances.

It was time to clean and ventilate the store with Nishia.

“Woros students! The store is nice, yes.”

“Deputy Principal Duralph, thank you for coming.”

“No. You’ve created an invention that will change the lives of Melgard students forever. How can you not come? So what is that invention?”

“A scented candle imbued with magic. The price is 6000 dun each without bubbles, but today we are offering it at a special price of 3000 dun. Try it out and come back if you like it.”

Duralph, who had been treated with respect until they met in the administrative office, began to put his words at ease in earnest. I am also more comfortable with this, so I welcome it.

“Yes… I’ve never actually used something like this before. I don’t know if I can give you a good rating.”

“If you try it once, you will feel the effect right away. Melgard class students always have physical training, so they are very weak. If you smoke this scented candle and go to sleep, it will be of great help in recovering from fatigue.”

“Mmm. Okay, then I’ll come tomorrow and tell you the review.”

I additionally told Duralp to keep the fact that this shop is mine a secret. There are dangerous people in Melgard who are targeting me, so the reason is that I wanted to keep it a secret. The secrecy won’t last long, but it just buys you time until you craft the next potion for self-defense.

After Duralp, Marina came. Marina has, as I expected, brought her good professor, Ragust. Since the two were close in the original work, it was decided that she would bring her unconditionally.

“Woros students! I’m here. Professor Ragust didn’t believe in the amazing power of scented candles, so he brought them! What? Miss Nishia was also there?”

“Welcome, Professor.”

“Hmm, Nisia-san works here too. Seeing two geniuses together makes the professor’s heart race.”

At the words of two geniuses, Nishia stretched out her chest and liked it. In comparison, Ragust just tilted his head. Marina gives away her scented candles to her fellow professors, and she bought 10 of them. Of course, it is passed on at a special price. She asked Marina to keep the fact that I had made the scented candles secret.

While doing business, if customers ask me, I’m thinking of evading that I got it cheaply through an unspeakable route.

“Since I sold everything to my acquaintances, should I go back soon?”

“Is this all you know? Aren’t you the only two who came to see me in person?”

“Yes. Word of mouth will circulate inside the academy now, so that’s enough.”

“Grunt.”

I was about to close my business and go back. She turned her head at the feeling that the air was getting brighter all at once. Standing there was a person I knew. A truly unexpected person visited my store.

This woman had her light blue hair. She was wearing Arisha Academy’s school uniform, but her arms were too long and wide, so instead of her hands, only the fluttering hem of her clothes could be seen.

Instead of her tie, she had a light blue ribbon wrapped around her, and she was wearing her high-heeled shoes. Eva Eliseria, the second-year head of Shiza’s class and the signed cheat character of the veil, with the title of Fairy Dance, stopped by my store.

I looked at her and couldn’t keep her mouth shut. The first reason was that I was overwhelmed by her beauty, and the second reason was that she, before I possessed her, might have been acquainted with Woros.

This is a reasonable doubt in its own way, but the reason for thinking that way is. This is because, based on the original work, Is found in Eva’s room. Eva, who was not directly involved in the story, was also the only part that affected the story.

Anyway, if you weren’t acquainted with the ex-possessed Waros, isn’t there any reason why the diary was found in her room?

As I stared blankly at Eva’s face at that thought, Nishia suddenly took off her lab coat next to me and dusted herself away, blocking my view.

“Woros, long time no see.”

“…… “

“I came after hearing from Professor Marina. That… Shall we go back if it’s inconvenient?”

“6,000 Dun for a scented candle, I’ll give you 3,000 dun today.”

“Oh, yes.”

Eva puts her arms together, and she starts tossing and turning. She then puts her arm on one side of her. Accordingly, the hem of her dress that was covering her arm comes down, revealing her hand. She was holding money.

“Okay, I’ll take one.”

“Thank you.”

I looked at Nishia. After understanding my intentions, she gave me a scented candle in exchange for money from Eva. Nishia can’t take her eyes off Eva, who must be her guest. She seems to be staring rather than unable to take her eyes off. She probably needs to do a bit of customer service training.

“Woros, can I talk to you for a minute? It just takes a little bit.”

“Oh! I’m sorry, senior. Actually, we decided to close the store. Yes. Senior Woros?”

“Okay. Then let’s go somewhere quiet.”

A conversation with Eva is a necessary task. Wouldn’t it hurt to find out what happened to Eva and I? Above all, it was necessary to question whether Eva had taken care of According to the original story.

I asked Nishia to clean up. Nishia sends her resentful eyes. Come to think of it, she didn’t teach her how to close her shop. So, she just said that she would be back soon and entered a nearby teahouse with Eva.

“Woros, don’t run away anymore… “

“…… “

“It has changed a lot from last year… I see That’s how it happened.”

Eva nods her head, and she gives herself a look of understanding. She starts to cry for some reason.

“Woros, do you remember what happened last year?”

“… Eva, what does she want to say?”

“Let me change the question, are you a Woros Blood?”

Unknowingly, Eva’s words stabbed her to the core, and I opened her eyes. The question of whether you are Woros Blood. Could Eva know that I am the possessor? No. If so, she wouldn’t have asked if I remembered last year. I decided to cleverly evade this question.

“Last year I was Woros Blood, and now I am Woros Blood.”

“I see. That’s it. There is Woros. You’re not going to run away like last year, are you? Can I say hello?”

“… Okay”

At this timing, the herbal tea Eva bought me arrived. Eva takes a sip of her tea without saying a word and looks at me.

“Ah… How nice it would be if it was like this last year. Secretly spying on my dancing, I just run away when I say hello for nearly a year. Have you ever fallen down while chasing after you and scarred your knee?”

“…… “

“But, I want you—”

“Eva.”

She cut her off and touched her teacup, staring straight at her.

“I will ask you directly. Do you have my diary?”

“Uh, that, that… Sorry… I had no intention of stealing.”

“Ha, that’s it. Take that.”

“What?”

As in the original story, Woros’s diary was handed over to Eva. I felt like I could let go for an hour now. Hearing Eva’s words, I got a rough idea of what the relationship between last year’s Woros and Eva was.

Woros accidentally finds Eva dancing. I don’t know if it was because she was shy or because she blamed herself for the fact that Karma 150’s wise Worth had been stealing her dance, but she ran away from Eva.

Since that incident, Eva has been following Waros with interest. I don’t know what happened in the process, but you can think of it as entering the room I used before being possessed and stealing . Eva has her diary as it is, and she just needs to be stolen like the original story.

There is also a way to get a diary from here and read it. But why are you so reluctant? The diary is an important item that will change the difficulty of the story. If the diary does not have an impact on the story, it will be a sacrifice that cannot be recovered.

That’s why I’m reluctant. While Eva keeps her diary, as in her original story, if I choose the option of giving her her diary, it seems that her affairs will get out of hand.

Even if I read it all and return it, it seems that I can’t turn it back. Faced with the terrible scene where the diary stopped affecting the story, what would I think?

The terrible incident I’m worried about is happening on the side of the Blood family. Like it or not, it has nothing to do with me. So, by not touching the diary, he may have wanted to reduce the scale of the incident and free himself from responsibility.

I think so.

I decided to take the easy route.

“Then, Eva, your tea was good. If you like scented candles, come back to the store.”

“Oh, are you leaving already?”

“Yes. I think I have to go because the store has to close.”

It was time to say goodbye to Eva and get up. Eva suddenly runs up and grabs my hand.

“Whoa, Woros, can we officially become friends?”

“…… “

“Ah, the same class. I heard that they are in the same class… No?”

“Okay.”

I don’t know what Eva was thinking when she said that, but she thoughtlessly nodded her head in affirmation, and a smile bloomed across Eva’s face.
