Chapter 324: CH.320 Capital Things

“So… where are we going to stay?” Lua asked. “Do we just… go to HomeBase every day?”

“Basically yes.” I answered. “Well, officially we will be staying in the Sawyer manor located in the city, but in actuality, I will park HomeBase above the city so that we can beam ourselves there and back. Well, we can also stay in the Sawyer manor, if you prefer that, but I can’t just ignore HomeBase for too long, so I will probably spend at least every other night there.”

“I think I’ll be staying at both.” Alice said. “I want to sleep in my own bed, but I also want to spend time with Mariina and Cressida.”

“... Lady Cressida… she was the civil official sister, if I remember correctly.” Ria muttered.

“Yes. And she is the one in charge of keeping the capital house in good condition when Grandfather isn’t here.” Alice said. “So when I told Grandfather that we would be going to the capital, he quickly said that we should stay in this house, as it is usually quite vacant.”

“And what about Violet or Paulina coming here? Weren’t they supposed to help me meet with the King, or has that plan been altered?” I asked about something Christina said a long time ago. Like before I ever left Alewatch long ago.

“If we need them, we can go pick one of them up.” Alice said. “But Big Sis Cressida should be able to help us, as long as she isn’t too busy.”

“We also shouldn’t pull Paulina away from the mana flowers. They are still experimental and need to be looked after.” I added. “So if we need one of them, it will have to be Violet.”

“Actually she already taught the gardeners to do that, so we could take her as well.” Alice corrected. “You would know if you read the report she sent.”

“... I skimmed over it. As long as everything is fine, I don’t need to interfere.” I defended myself. “Besides, I’ve been waiting for her to be ready to report on the staff, so I’ve kind of been putting off a meeting with her.”

“What staff? Did you give her one?” 

“Yeah. An experimental one. It is kind of out there, so it needs to be tested.”

“I could have tested it.”

“I don’t want you breaking it.” Well, that wasn’t the real reason, but let’s go with that.

“I’ve only broken one staff in my life.”

“And that is one more than most have.”

“Actually it isn’t that uncommon.” Lua cut in. “Some magicians end up breaking their first staves as they grow more powerful.”

“... well, I stand corrected then.” I admitted. “But still. I wanted someone other than you to test it out.” I told Alice. “So that is why I enlisted your aunt’s help.”

“I’ll forgive you. … as long as you make that mana staff that can pull mana from HomeBase.” Alice said.

“... I kind of already did, but it has a massive material problem.” I told her. “I have to use stuff like void uranium and orichalcum to make it or the staff will break, so the cost to make one is sky high. I need ways to get the materials cheaper before I make one. And there aren’t exactly books available on how to obtain legendary metals.”

“Can’t you ask Laura?” 

“Do you think I didn’t? Limited to Perfect level System Support.”

“Maybe we could do something based on the names?” Alice suggested. “Like star titanium is some mix of titanium and star material?”

“And how would we obtain star material? Stars are kind of warm.”

“Can’t one of your monsters survive it?” 

“I don’t have Star Eater yet. Well, I might have something, but I’d have to check. And even then, I don’t really want to mess with the sun, so I’d have to go to another solar system. And even with Gradius or Victory Viper, going to another solar system might take too long.”

“Then maybe… maybe analyze your monsters’ weapons? Does that help?” Alice asked.

“Already done. I do get access to the metals and their blueprints, but not things like metal composition, so I can’t make that metal without the True core. Which is, as I already said, expensive.”

“And none of your monsters know how to make it?” 

“At least not any I have at this moment. The Creator and Exxod both know a bit about some metals, mainly how to artificially make mithril and hihi'irokane, but even they are unaware of ways to make the highest ranked metals.”
