I Was Reincarnated as a Commoner. I Can’t Stand Living Like This, so I’ll Become an Aristocrat! C194

194, Various magic equipment installation and cooking utensils

After school the next day. 

I thought I'd take it easy for a while because I was tired and fell asleep yesterday, but I came to the store right after school today because I wanted to set up magic tools at the store for Yoan and the others. 

If I try just a little harder, there won't be anything left for me to do for a while, so I'll try a little harder. 

I've been told not to let anyone enter the store from this time on today, so it's just me and Roger inside. Roger knows about all attributes, and there is no problem with him being inside. 

The only inconvenience is that you can't use the item box, but it's okay because the magic stones and magic iron were brought there by horse-drawn carriage. 

Okay, I'll do my best to make it. 

I decided to buy the magic stones and magic iron from Richard and make them myself for the additional magic tools to be installed in the shop this time. It would probably be better to buy it from a magic goods store through the official route, but it's easier to make small adjustments if you make it yourself, so this is how I did it this time. 

Normally, it's impossible to directly obtain magic stones and magic iron, and I have no choice but to buy magic tools from a state-run magic tool store, so Richard always prepares special supplies for me to use. I'm really grateful. thank you. 

　

“Leon-sama, should I bring the magic stones and magic iron here?”

That's what Roger asked me as he carried the luggage from the carriage. 

"Yeah, thank you. Can you leave it all there?"

"I got it"

I use the space in front of the shop's counter as a temporary place to create magic tools, and sit directly on the floor there. It's bad manners, but it's okay since it's just Roger and me. 

What should I make first? What I definitely want to make today is a glass showcase with a refrigeration function, a refrigerator to put in the kitchen, and a cold air fan and hot air fan to control the room temperature in the store. 

That's right, this hot air machine is a derivative of the hair dryer that Lucien made. I suggested it to Lucien, and the two of us created it. Sales of stoves have decreased as a result of this, but they seem to have a reputation for being warmer than stoves. 

However, there are some people who prefer stoves, and surprisingly there seems to be a demand for both. I actually prefer a stove, but this store is so spacious that I think a hot air fan would be better. 

I need three cold air fans and three hot air fans for the shop space, kitchen, and break room. 

　

It would be a good idea to make these for now and then use them and improve them. If there are any inconveniences, I can make magic tools to compensate for them. 

Okay, if you decide to do that, let's make it right away. I gathered my spirits and first picked up a glass plate from the store. This glass plate was newly ordered from a glass workshop. The glass showcase I had made earlier has been moved to my room in the duke's house for now. 

That showcase is big and doesn't have much use for it, but I felt like it would be a bad idea to dismantle it and turn it into a showcase for magic tools, so I decided against it. It seems like the people at the workshop worked hard to eliminate the gaps as much as possible, and dismantling them... 

That's why it's currently placed in my room as a display case for things I don't want covered in dust. 

While thinking about this, I placed the glass plate I had brought on the floor, then held the magic iron in my hand and poured magical power into it. Then, when the magic iron becomes limp, I run it along the glass. 

In practice, we used a rectangular box shape with glass attached to only one area on the customer's side, but this time we decided to change the shape slightly for ease of use and visibility. 

For customers, the glass should be installed at an angle so that it is easy to see without having to bend over. We also installed glass in the sliding door on the clerk's side. 

Then, by reducing the magic iron part as much as possible, I tried to reduce the heavy feeling. A counter that looks like a bulky safe in a stylish cafe will ruin the atmosphere. 

――Yeah, you did it well!　

After some trial and error trying to figure out what shape to make it, I finally came up with something that I was satisfied with. It feels good to me. 

The only thing left to do is to set it up on the counter and make some fine adjustments. 

The counter was redone with brick, and it has a very stylish finish. The part where the customer pays the bill is at a height slightly above the waist of an adult, and the part where the showcase is placed only has a base. 

I moved the showcase I made earlier onto the counter. Even one person can easily win by using body reinforcement. 

Then, adjust the size to fit the counter, insert the shelf you ordered into the showcase, set the light bulb so that you can clearly see the cake, and...it's done! 

Yes, it has become very fashionable. I look at the showcase from near the entrance of the shop and check its completion. 

"What do you think about Roger? Does it match the atmosphere of the store?"

"Yes. I think it fits the atmosphere of the store very well. It's also new, so I think it will become the centerpiece of the store."

"Really? That would be great! Then I'll make a sequel."

I did that, attached a refrigeration function to the showcase, and completed a showcase with a refrigeration function. 

Yes, it's perfect. Now, if you insert the magic stone, you can use it anytime. However, one problem is that there are tubes and boxes behind the counter that serve the cooling function, so it's a bit of a nuisance. 

Hmm, maybe I should put a long desk behind the showcase. If you can store the cooling function under the desk, no one will trip over it, and if you have a desk, it will be easier to do things like packing boxes. Yes, you might need a shelf behind the counter to store supplies. I'll put it on my purchase list for now. 

After that, I made and installed magic tools one after another, including a refrigerator, a cold air fan, and a hot air fan. If the shape is fixed, it can be completed quickly without worrying about it, so I finished making everything in about an hour. 

“I guess that’s about it for now.”

"That's amazing... I know about Leon-sama's magic, but I don't usually see it, so I'm surprised."

"I guess so? But it's true that I usually hide it. Even in front of Roger, I might not have used it much."

I worked hard and used a lot of magic today. I kept using body strengthening all the time, I used wind magic to clean dust, I used water magic to wipe away dirt, and I did a lot of other things. 

After all, it's easier when you can use magic freely. Magic is truly a mysterious power, but it's amazing. 

While thinking about this, I stretched out to relax my tired body and thought about what I was going to make next. 

I was actually planning to stop here, but since I finished making it faster than I expected, I'd like to try making some magic tools that I've been wanting to try. 

What kind of magic tool is it? It's a cooking utensil. There are a few things I want to make, but I thought it would be a good idea to make a hand mixer. That would also save time. It can also be used for mayonnaise and fresh cream. 

In this world, there are many tools that can be used to make sweets. Although they don't have the same shape as the Japanese ones, there are ones that can be used as whisks and ones that can be used as cake molds. But as expected, there are no machines. So that's where magic tools come in. 

“Roger, I have some magic tools that I want to develop, so can I stay here a little longer?”

“Of course, but will it be developed again?”

"Yeah. I guess it's no good...?"

“No, Master-sama has already registered a lot of magic tools, so I don’t think there will be any problems since he said it would be fine as long as he didn’t find out that all the attributes were used. I am amazed at the power of ideas that come to mind..."

Roger said that and looked at me with a little respect. 

However, my knowledge is thanks to the excellent engineers in Japan. That's why I honestly can't be happy about it...well, I can't even say that. 

"Thank you. I just hope it will be a little more convenient."

"That's wonderful. I will create wonderful cleaning tools so that I don't lose to Leon-sama."

Roger said that and nodded with determination in his eyes. Ever since I told him about developing cleaning tools, Roger has been showing great motivation. It seems like he uses the time after work or when he has free time when I'm at school to think about various things. 

I'm glad Roger found something he's passionate about. I thought so and relaxed my face a little. 

"Then I'll do my best not to lose to Roger."

That's when I got fired up and started developing cooking utensils. 

First, it's a hand mixer. A hand mixer has a whisk that rotates automatically at high speed, but I have no idea what it looks like. However, for now, it would be nice if the whisk turned automatically and at high speed. 

Thinking so, I attached a rectangular blade with magic iron to the handle of the sturdy-looking whisk I bought. The handle is then covered with a cylinder that is slightly larger than the length of the feather. Then, I made a small gap at the bottom of the tube and sealed it with magic iron so that the whisk wouldn't fall out. 

Okay... Now if you use strong wind magic to push the feathers inside the tube, the whisk should spin. 

With that in mind, I tried using wind magic. The whisk did indeed spin, but the blades and the bottom of the tube rubbed against each other, making an unpleasant sound. Also, the friction seems to slow it down. 

In order to solve this problem, you have to fix the whisk to the top of the cylinder and make the blades float... 

After dozens of trials and errors, the automatic whisk was finally completed. The handle is slightly thicker than previous whisks, and the whisk rotates automatically. 

Yes, it's perfect for me. All that's left to do is have Yoan and the others use it and adjust the speed. 

After completing the whisk, I also made a food processor with a mechanism similar to the whisk, and the development of the magic tool was completed. 

Let's register these two soon.
