Magical Device Craftsman Dahlia Won’t Hang Her Head Down Anymore
68 67. Apple Brandy And Shoe Dryer

I also feel like the two of us are getting completely settled on drinking after dinner.

Sitting on the couch, on the low table, lined up with cheese, crackers and dried fruit, he asked Wolfe to open an Apple Brandy.

Pour into a smaller glass and toast for the second time today. Darya thought diligently of the toast words.

"Uh, here's to the health of Artea, who got the brandy, and good luck tomorrow."

"Wish me luck tomorrow, cheers"

It's called brandy, so I was prepared for the strength of the liquor and mouthed it, but it's unexpectedly sweet.

I've never smelled apple flowers, but the aroma was sweet and heavy enough to remind me of roses, and the late, fruity, alcoholic flavour spread to my mouth.

I have the feeling of burning my throat like a brandy, but that doesn't feel strong either.

Even the water you drink for a mouthful is enough to keep you away for a while.

"It tastes and smells so good..."

"This is what I'm making in the Duke of Gastoni's territory. She said she likes queens."

While I'm plenty impressed with Apple Brandy, I think I've heard stories on the clouds.

"My queen, is it?

"Oh. He said he gave it every year from the Duke's house. Master Althea's late husband, because his sister is the queen. Blood's not connected, though."

"Um, me, are you listening to a tremendous story?

"No, a well-known fact in nobility. Being adopted daughter of the Duke of Gastoni's family because it does not fit with the royal family when it is the Queen's home, the form of the dowry. A lot of adoptions are made at home because they're noble."

These aristocratic stories are 'The World You Don't Know' whenever you hear them.

But I'm sayin ', aren't you getting some amazing alcohol?

It is a liquor that you do not know how many times in your lifetime you can drink. I can't help but drink this.

I tasted less of a bite and grabbed the crust of dried fruit, and I felt a sight of sight.

With his face up, Wolfe, looking at this one, was enduring a laugh as he shook his shoulders.

"What's wrong?

"Well, it's crazy because Darya drinks and eats like a squirrel..."

"A squirrel... I was just savoring it!

"If you like this, I'll buy it next time."

"No, just how you feel. You can't have fun drinking alcohol without it being your height."

Sometimes it's good to drink expensive alcohol, but I still don't feel like something I can't easily buy. You can't just get booze as a person.

"... you smell really good"

Wolfe stared at the amber in the glass with those golden eyes. What a painting that contrast is.

I don't think I was fighting the clam shell with all my might until just now.

"... should I still buy brandy glasses too?

"I'm thinking about whether I should increase the shelves for booze and glasses..."

When drinking starts to get stiff, there is a tendency for spending to be scurvy in addition to alcohol.

So Dalya secretly thinks she needs to work harder during the day.

"You're gonna be busy."

"Sorry, when I gave Wolf my five-finger sock, it was enough to help, I wasn't thinking deeply..."

"You don't have to apologize to me. I'm also comfortable and happy to use it, divide it into friends, divide it into captains... so I didn't think I'd be able to spread the word so far"

Empty a glass one by one as we talk about the beginning of the commotion.

The smell of sweet liquor between discussions made my mouth feel smooth.

"Darya can put her chest up as a magic conductor. It's amazing how many people want to be able to offer something."

"I'd appreciate it if you could say that, but what a nuisance it is to be around... are there so many people who are troubled by the steaming of their shoes in the troops?

"Perhaps that's more true in the Knights than in the troops. Whether it's training or vigilance, I sweat absolutely on my feet, because leather steams. I can't wear sandals or cloth shoes while on duty. I guess it's a lot different if you just lay it on the inside."

Sure, if the Knights were wearing sandals, they'd likely have problems fighting and looking.

Also, given the outdoor combat, like the Demon Crusade Squad, a sturdy boot with waterproof features would be a must.

"Do you think boots, leather shoes, washing, or purifying magic?

"No, I don't wash much because the leather damages me. I've never heard you're purifying it. After I go on an expedition to the swamps, I wash them in boulders, but I still can't dry them out. Sometimes if it keeps raining, the Wizard who can use wind magic will dry it out, but it won't even dry to the toe. I'm worried about the smell."

Not breathable on top of not washing may steam or mold, and there will be more water bugs. Besides, the leather itself should be damaged quickly if it dries slowly.

"Aren't you going to put a hairdryer on your boots?

"The hair dryer's fever hurts the leather. I've tried it before, but the surface burned. I wish I could lower the temperature more."

"If you just want to lower the temperature, you can do it right away with a regular dryer modification. You're coming to work a little bit."

"Oh, then I'll come with you. It's fun watching the work."

Empty each glass and then go down to the workplace on the ground floor.

Darya took the spare hairdryer out of the box on the shelf.

"How much temperature do you hope it is to dry your shoes?

"I don't think the leather will burn when it's warm enough to touch it with my hands"

"So you're windier at lower temperatures than a hairdryer?

"I guess I'd be happy to have some cold wind. Sometimes I just want to fly the smell."

In order to change the set temperature of the dryer while incorporating Wolfe's proposal, the temperature limit of the Demon Stone circuit of fire was lowered. Raise the air volume setting more than once.

The temperature was set in three stages so that cold and warm temperate winds, slightly higher temperate winds, could emerge. Keep it at a temperature that is okay to use continuously to avoid a fire.

In the meantime, I gave the reason that slightly higher temperate winds can also be used for slippers and cloth shoes.

Actually, the dryer temperature setting is three stages, so I just wanted to use the parts as they are.

I just switched the temperature and air volume setting of the dryer, so even if I put in all Wolfe's suggestions, it was finished in about fifteen minutes.

"I think it's just the right temperature. Can you do this so that the wind reaches the toe of your boot?

"Uh... same as a water heater, I was wondering if it would be okay if I put on a snakebelly cylinder. You can make it easier with more holes."

I answered Wolfe's suggestion with a little thought.

The snakebelly parts belong to the water heater, but if you add more holes along the way and tip, there will be wind out of it. This machining will take a few minutes.

"This will bend properly, and it will arrive. It's going to dry to my toes."

"In the meantime, let's try it with the right boots"

Darya opens the shoebox by the front door and takes out the man's black boots that were in the box.

It belonged to my father, but he left the best boots as artifacts. Even after his death, he's been oiled twice on the outside, so it's pretty glossy.

Trying to get the shoe dryer snake belly to her toes, Darya wrinkled between her brows.

"If you're a father......!

Father, don't keep the socks off your boots tightly round your toes.

I left it for over a year. Isn't this already excavated? Besides, what does it mean to keep both legs in?

As he took his socks and sifted and shook his shoulders, the young man sounded worried.

"Uh, Darya...... keep those socks, as artifacts?

"I'll burn it down."

Darya made it clear.

When she dumps the two socks in the trash without hesitation, Darya plugs the shoe dryer snake belly into her boot.

After letting the warm wind out for a while, I touched my toes and it was quite warm.

"Wolf, what do you think?

"I think it's just fine. You can use these shoes in different sizes."

I also confirm Wolfe on the side, but it looks pretty good. He touches the snake belly of the shoe dryer for fun.

"Why don't you use this in the barracks to try it? So I just need you to let me know what you think later."

"Thanks, I just feel so visionary right now having this conversation..."

"Huh? Something wrong?

Unexpectedly ask back to the young man, who smiled and turned, with a deep wrinkle between his eyebrows.

"I've said the features I want, and Darya made me rusty... but this, if I use it in the barracks, isn't it possible to be a two-finger sock and a medium-layered dance?

"Uh, there won't be. You just changed the hairdryer a little bit, didn't you? Why don't you ask the magic conductor at the Imperial Castle to just change the dryer a little bit?"

"No, it's tough that the Hillah Knight is easy on the Royal Castle's magic conductor. Besides, neither Darya nor I thought it was going to be that important when you were laying your five-finger socks on the inside, right?

"That's right..."

"If there is, I think we should write this, blueprints and specifications, and talk to Ivano in the guild"

"Okay. I don't think it's a big deal... I'll talk to you."

The next day, Ivano's job more than doubled, but now neither of us expected that.

"If we had one of these, we'd be able to take turns with a few of them."

"Uh, shoes after a clean wash are fine, but when you just dry them, you should avoid sharing them with people with water bugs. Be careful Wolfe may also fall in love..."

"Huh? A water bug, do you like it?

Apparently, he didn't realize it was going to happen. He seems to think the only cause of the water bug is the swelling of his shoes.

"Sometimes they say things. How are you treating water bugs with your troops?

"When I'm light, I'm cured in the temple by a healing magical wizard in the castle who says it's terrible. But I heard there's a lot of recurrence. Sometimes water bugs..."

He was kind of shocked.

Use your memories from your previous life to replace advice for the Wolfe you're thinking about.

"Uh, when you take a bath, it's important to carefully wash your toes and toes with soap. When you are a water bug, wipe well and then apply medicine, dry well. And then, don't share shoes. Use five-finger socks as much as possible when wearing leather shoes or boots, and when in your room, sandals may also be good for better ventilation. Oh, you should stop socking when you sleep"

"Hey, sorry, let me make a note! I want to tell you because my friends are on it."

Wolfe started listing on paper, so he turned every one around and added some.

For your friend's full water bug healing, and for Wolfe not to be depressed, I would love you to remember and execute it.

"Darya, you know a lot about water bugs."

"... that my father was in a waterworm"

Reply to Wolfe's impressed voice.

The answer is not a lie, but it was the father of the previous life who was troubled by the waterworm.

I'm so sorry about Carlo's father in this world.

Speaking of which, my father once told himself on the way home from Tobias' father's funeral.

"Darya, after I die, if there's anything you can ride in my name, use as much as you want."

Words my father, severely drunk after losing his best friend in the rain, told me to squeeze out.

Though I had forgotten as it were that it was not even related to my father's death at that time.

What I was wearing on that rainy day was these black boots.

Now that you let me use your name, is it really good once again?

Regardless of the work relationship, my father would not have thought about it at all, such as it would be used in the water bug story.

In the meantime, the next time I give you a step of booze grade to take to the grave, I want you to give me a break this time.

Dahlia joined hands within as she lost her father's boot.
