Chapter 338. Water is life (5) Just as spirits are summoned after being hooked by the affinity of spirits, there is a habit of gathering among spirits even in strong spirits.
….It’s like a group of insects that are seduced by pheromones.
So naturally, the place where the spirits gather has a sacred feeling, so you can actually taste the divine effect.
Well, finding that place isn’t easy.
However, I intend to create it artificially through this water purification device.
“If non-materialized spirits gather through this device, the dirty water will naturally be purified with only energy.”
The first step is to purify the water using spirits.
Then, it goes through secondary and tertiary filtration using medicines and magic.
The water that comes out will be cleaner than any other water in the world.
“The water won’t taste bad because it passes through the energy of the spirit.”
I tried to reproduce the taste of water from the spring water.
The catchphrase for those who care about their health is also perfect!
“Hey… that’s it. Then, you just have to put Undine’s marking on the device or something?”
“that’s right. So, have Undine do some marking on this device for a while.”
“Um, but what can I do?”
Penawa is at a loss as to how to give an order.
Undine, who was sympathetic to her thoughts, tilted her head at the same time.
“Nothing. Just dictate with the feeling, ‘Go into this vat and melt into it for a moment.’”
“huh!”
Give Pena orders as I instructed.
[huh! Stay!]
Undine answered briefly and flew into the device.
First of all, it’s an intermediate level spirit, so it’s easy to handle because it can think and talk like a simple child.
I was lucky to be in the middle class.
The lower level is a bit weak, and the upper level is too strong, so it is easy for other spirits to gather.
So, a half-intermediate level is appropriate.
When Undine stood in the magic circle inside the device, the small body disappeared as if it melted into water.
It didn’t actually disappear, it just assimilated into the water purification device I made as ordered.
How did you steep it for a few minutes with Undine’s presence?
The color of the magic circle installed in the device has changed.
It is proof that Undine’s presence was properly recorded.
“okay?.”
When I signaled that this was all over, Undine jumped out of the device again.
“great job.”
[huh! Yes!]
When Pena stroked her hair and praised her, Undine laughed and disappeared.
“Is that what it was?”
“For now, in theory. If you leave it like this for a while, it will reproduce the recorded Undine’s marking pattern and attract the disembodied spirit.”
Theoretically, the effect of not damaging the recorded summoning circle is semi-permanent.
Let’s check the result for a while, and finish assembling the device and wait.
Pena made a small noise as if she felt something.
“oh? Can you really feel the spirit-like presence?”
“Then it works. So now…
I carefully poured the water I had put in the kettle into the mouth of the device.
“What is that?” water?”
“It’s water that has been drawn from anywhere in moderation. Normally, it is not used for beverages, but for industrial purposes.”
It is the water that melted the snow at the bottom of the snow mountain of Pahilia.
It’s not that I can’t drink it, but it’s a bit stinky.
“If you pour it like this.”
When water was poured in, the water flowed straight down the bottom of the device and was put into a pre-placed cup.
“look. Is it clear?”
The water, where even the float was visible at first glance, is now completely purified and contained in a transparent cup.
My device is perfect.
So if you eat it like this, you won’t get sick at all.
“…will you drink that?”
“Shouldn’t we check the taste of the water first?”
“Are you really not going to get rid of it?”
As Pena looked at me worriedly, I sneered and pretended to shrug.
“don’t worry. The water is clean and I have checked it beforehand.”
The effectiveness of the early model of the water purifier has already been proven using our pet griffons.
Even if people eat it, there will be no harm.
And if it were me, no matter how much poison I ate, I wouldn’t get sick.
There is no talent more suitable than me to try drinking purified water.
Above all, since it’s a device I made, I have to make sure it’s safe on my own.
So I reassured Pena and drank the purified water using the spirit.
The taste of water given by Undine.
I’ll check it out sometime.
“hmm?!”
When I opened my eyes, Pena panicked.
“Uh.. how is it?”
“It’s just water.”
It’s delicious, it’s tasteless, and there’s nothing to do.
it’s just water Literally water.
which is not bad
Confirming that there is nothing wrong, I smiled with satisfaction.
“If this is enough, I think I can sell it once I finish it with a little more testing.”
All that remains is to complete the device. ? ?
Completion of the device was not too difficult.
Anyway, the first prototype was perfect enough.
All that remains is to artificially copy and reproduce Undine’s marking pattern.
However, this much is simple for us mages, who have been conducting research based on my theory for several years.
“I will try it.”
A water purification device completed by wizards, led by Dia, was tested as a ‘spiritual water purifier’. We are busy trying to apply it.
Wizards check the spell.
Alchemists additionally check medicines.
I was watching it wearing a gas mask.
We are currently in a polluted lake in the forest at the southern end of the kingdom.
Originally, this place was a spot boasting the clear taste of water that local residents often visit.
It is said that many years ago, when a wyvern spewing acid breath crashed into the lake, it became contaminated and was thrown away.
At first, they tried to purify it by mobilizing wizards, but it was said that the miasma emitted by the wyvern that fell into the lake was not normal, so it could not be solved in the end.
As a result, it is now a lake of death that emits a stench and emits an ominous green light.
I decided to use this place as a place to test the water purifying device I had developed.
“It’s the perfect place to test out the elemental water purifier.”
Theoretically, it was calculated that this lake could be purified by applying the limit performance of the spirit water purifier.
If we can truly restore this place to its original state, any polluted water will be able to be purified and used.
“By the way, wasn’t the lord of this place happy when he said he was going to do this experiment?”
Damon of the alchemist team, who was checking the chemicals to put in the purifier, suddenly brought up the word.
“Hmm, that was the case.”
In fact, the lord of this place was delighted when I told him that I would use this lake as a laboratory for a purification device.
I even fell down and thanked him sincerely.
“Well, originally, there was no answer to purify, so I guess they just planned to burn the whole thing and fill it up with soil.”
“Well, it must have been quite a headache.”
The plan was to completely seal it off and sprinkle a large amount of artificial holy water on it.
In such a car, how could I not be happy that I would do this kind of experiment.
If I fail, I will do as planned.
If successful, that’s great.
“But what if it fails?”
“It’s nothing. When the spirits gather excessively or run out of control, ‘Bung!’ Are you going to explode?”
“It’s not a big deal at all, is it?”
“it’s okay. You won’t get hurt if I’m with you?”
“Miss Dia? It probably doesn’t mean that.”
Perhaps because of their mood, I also felt that the movements of the alchemists and magicians who heard our conversation became cautious.
no. It doesn’t explode!
Exploding is always the worst case scenario.
It doesn’t break that easily.
So, I finished all the preparations.
First of all, the goal is to purify the water pollution of the lake.
A separate waterway was dug and contaminated water flowed there, and a spirit water purifier was installed at the corner of the road.
You can put it directly into the lake, but the purification will be slow and painstaking for certainty and data collection.
This is so that purification is carried out through a small amount of flowing water.
“Then where should I go see you?”
When I gestured for the experiment to begin, Dia nodded silently and inserted the magic crystal.
Finally, as the purifier worked, a large number of signs of unmaterialized spirits began to gather in it.
“oh! It is purified. It is purified!”
At first, only green water flowed, but let’s start the purifier in earnest.
The water flowing through the purifier gradually becomes clearer, and then only transparent water flows.
It started to affect the entire lake, and after about a couple of hours, the lake, which had been green, was finally regaining its blue water color to some extent.
When I took off the gas mask as a test, the stench was noticeably lessened.
“Jeonghwa seems to be going well.”
“I don’t feel dangerous mana either. The purifier is operating normally.”
Damon and Dia also reported positively after confirming that they had been successfully purified.
In a day or so, the lake will be completely clear.
In fact, wizards and alchemists cheered for the device’s completion.
“Congratulations, Arell. You will accomplish another feat with this.”
“What a feat.”
I snorted at Damon’s words as if they were exaggerating.
“I didn’t think of a feat or anything. It was just made to sell.”
“Even so, if this applies, wouldn’t many people thank Lord Arel?”
“…do whatever you want.”
Because it’s me who makes money.
In any case, the experiment was successful.
With this amount, any place will be able to provide clean water without problems.
All that’s left now is to appeal to them to sell this.
“I need to make a seat soon.”
Now it was time to figure out how to sell this purifier in earnest.
That’s just a good idea.
No matter how great a device is made, if it is not widely known, no one in the world will know about it.
If there is something good, it should be widely publicized.
That’s why among those who do business, one of the things they consider most important is word of mouth.
Rumors speak louder than words.
Good rumors spread far and wide by mouth, and bad rumors spread three times faster than that.
That is why each trade association is often frantic about spreading rumors by widely publicizing the products they are confident in or the number of important business cases.
And our side is no exception.
If there is a new product, you should make an effort to be the first to announce it.
‘And in this case, they’re the ones who need to publicize the effectiveness of this product.’
I entered the place prepared in advance, looked around, and fell into thought.
A large round table was placed in the room, ready to welcome the soon-to-be arriving guests.
To sell the purifier completed this time.
I decided to invite prospective customers to my castle.
It is the envoys of each country.
This business needs to be global rather than confined to the Kingdom of Ernesia.
So, as soon as the purifier was completed, I deliberately spread the information to other countries.
A magical tool that purifies any contaminated water to the extent that it is drinkable was completed.
And will be selling it soon.
Of course, the feeling of biting the information was caught.
I immediately sent the next proposal to each country.
“This time we will give a detailed explanation of the new large-scale purification device. Interested persons are welcome to come and see the usefulness of this device.
It’s called ‘water purifier demonstration’.
You want clean water? Then I’ll give you any amount – but it will cost you some money.
