I sighed alone in the room I was assigned.

The estate of Her Highness Princess Lily of Sototo. I was in a room in the mansion.

I guess they had been notified well in advance. The reception I received was simple, but still adequate due to the ongoing earthquakes and emergencies.

A variety of delicious Sototo dishes, the names of which are not clear. Many of them were whitish in appearance and light in flavor, but they were edible enough. Judging from Taura's reaction, it seemed to be a very expensive meal.

It was the food of a mansion owned by royalty. No wonder.

I sigh again and decide to finish the task at hand.

There was a sword.

Needless to say it's Her Highness' sword. It was forced upon me at the end of the meal.

Apparently, there is a spare sword in the museum, and he had said that he could have it specially made for me anytime. But tomorrow would be another busy day for him.

Besides, I don't like the idea of keeping a royal sword forever.

I wanted to finish it tonight if possible.

I don't feel like it, but I don't cut corners, that's what I believe in, so I'm going to think about how to refine it.

"Come to think of it, I usually have some problem to solve, don't I? This might be the first time I've ever been asked to do something like this."

I asked him what he wanted to do with the sword when I entrusted it to him, but he made a very annoying request that I should make it special and cool.

I recall this and sigh three times.

"In style, huh? At any rate, granting a spell comes with a price, doesn't it? Hmmm. Maybe we can make it less effective, and put in a system to cover the cost. However, if I modify the sword itself, I can't adjust the balance of the sword as a weapon. ......"

I continue to ponder, arranging the tools and alchemy materials I have on hand, as well as the parts of monsters I have newly acquired.

"I see. If you put a replaceable magic stone on the belt and make it go through the magic crest, you can use ....... The belt can be made from the parts of the monster that were used to make the saddle of Sailuke.

I write down on paper what I have come up with.

"The difference between this and the potion is... I see, in the case of the spell, there is a crest on this side of the belt with my blood and the curse of the spell! So... then... this would be..."

The sound of my pen, which I am vigorously moving, rattles in the quiet night.

"The safest effect is the blue-white light produced by the side effect of Taura's sword. The safest effect would be to make him wear it. Or rather, what is it exactly? Taura said she could feel the presence of Master Sailor. Verify that first: ....... Okay, let's try to recreate it with a twin-horn-tailed knife!"

I take out my favorite knife and try to see if I can reproduce it with the leftover blood potion and a spell.

"It looks like it, but there's obviously not much light. And I don't feel anything in particular. It doesn't seem logical, but I guess it's probably a matter of thoughts and feelings that are put into it. It's like the art of sorcery interacting with people's emotions."

I mutter to myself as I hold up a knife with twin horntails, which now have a faint bluish-white glow.

I touch the glowing blade of the sword and try to remember my work at the Alchemy Association.

"The light seems to have become slightly stronger, doesn't it?

And the next thing you know, the light is back on.

And a feeling rises up in you that it doesn't matter how long ago it was.

"Negative feelings eat away. I guess I'll have to pay for it with a magic crystal, huh?

I put my hand on my face.

"But it doesn't feel like a curse somehow. It's more like a purification. It looks holy. Okay, let's call this light for the sake of convenience. I'm sure His Highness Lily will be pleased with the name.

After I had completed all the preparations, I applied the alchemy and conjuration at once, and made sure that her Highness's sword was covered with the purifying light.

Scrolls fly by.

A belt being processed.

With my right hand dipped in the blood potion, I apply the magic crest and the magic circuit to the sword and the belt.

Using all the materials at hand, the whole set was completed in no time at all.

"This went faster than I expected. I think I'll be able to get some sleep today.

Stretching out, I feel satisfied with my work.

I did not realize it at the time.

I did not realize that what I had produced based solely on the selfishness of His Highness Lily and my belief that I would not cut any corners in the alchemy-related matters had become an existence outside the scope of the system of the god (server) that governs this world.

And what it brings about.
