บท 17: Mastering the runes
Another day came, Well it's always day here in Neo-Atlantis. Having breakfast with us five, I already included Mattinea as a member of the group, we discuss the activities we are going to do. The three Idun, Asuna, and Anita will train with the naga warriors in the training grounds while Mattinea and I will collect plants and creatures to be put in my mini-world also to find her two mermaids friends.
[Meshac let me introduce my friends to you, this is Ariel and Jesabel. They are my childhood friends. We share the same hobbies.] introduce Mattinea.
{ it's a pleasure to meet you} I said in mermish. Well, I did learn quite a few important mermish sentences like greetings.
The two are shocked to hear mermish coming from me. {that is a very good pronunciation, young master.} Said Ariel.
{Mattinea told us that you will allow us to join her in her journey, May I ask how are you going to accomplish that?} Jesabel said and was translated by Mattinea to me.
Looking around if there is no one else in the area. I bring them to my mini-world after confirming that we are alone. There I teleported the to the newly made salt lake. Amazed by what they are seeing. They look happy and excited. I told them to manage the area any renovations they want they can tell me and I will help them adjust it. They said they want to gather all the things they need back outside and prepare them to be transported back here. I brought them back and said to Mattinea that I will go back to the shaman's place to study runes while they prepare their things.
In the residence of the shaman. I arrived here after eating my lunch on the way. The foods stall is always breaking with delicious fresh foods. Calulla, the shaman, welcomed me and was excited to teach me. I did talk to her about a theory that can make those communication pearls.
I remember a video in my previous life that talked about farming pearls. My theory I said to her is that what if we put a ready-made normal crystal ball the size of an Apple to a mature pearl and let it be for some months, years, or decade to find out how Long can the clam make the pearl useable for communication. She almost fainted on the spot, after composing herself she began to shoo us away. She said she is very busy and we will have to come back tomorrow. And here I am.
[oh Meshac why didn't you come early it's already afternoon.]
[ madam Calulla you did say you are going to be busy yesterday so I allotted more time for your things.]
[ me busy? Nonsense! As long as it's you my timetable is always open. Now what do you want to talk about.]
[madam why are you getting closer and closer to me? Hey, wait! Not too close! That's ENOUGHHHHH!!!!!!] she hugged me. I tried to push her with my hands or her head. Unfortunately, her grip is strong. Her eyes look they want to open my skull and dissect my brain.
After some tug of war. We parted. She is too excited about one idea. What if I told her all my ideas? I think she will kidnap me and locked me away from where only she knows the place and make me her personal slave. This is dangerous. I will not come here alone again.
[madam Calulla do you have what I inquired yesterday. All the notes and books about runes?]
[ yes I have prepared. all the books including my ancient runes with notes on how to use them. I also include my personal rune diary, a compilation of four decades of my work. Do you have something for me?]
[ yes of course I have. Can I see those first then I will give you my gift? Equal exchange of course.]
[here it's all on top of that table. All are there you can check. Now where are the notes you promised me.]
I produced a letter envelop as I am walking towards the table. Then I throw it opposite of the main entrance. Then I collected all the things in the table including the table to my mini-world out of panic and run towards the exit. I stopped in the open door half of my body is outside I looked back.
[madam Calulla if you have any update regarding my ideas that I gave to you please do contact me I will give a personal communication crystal to the grand elder. You can relay your message to him. Goodbye, and I hope you have fun making my concept a reality. It was an honor meeting you.] I said with a loud voice because I saw her not paying attention to me and ripping the envelope with so much enthusiasm that it looks like it passed through a paper shredder, but my letters are fine. It's like a scene in a cartoon.
Then I run away before she brings back her attention to me. What a very crazy person. Well, she was nice on the first meeting with her but after I suggest the pearl farm I think she became a zombie. Tsk such a pity I would like her personal tutelage regarding runes to save time learning the art. Well, at least I'm not going in some dark secret place to be a slave or something.
Now my next destination. The fish market. I will make a huge order to stack in my newly made freezer. Freshly caught fish is delicious but a perfectly aged fish is the best. I remember it on a video platform channel where a Japanese master sushi Chef explained that a fish needs to be rested first or dry-aged depending on what kind. It can be rested for hours or days after cleaning the fish. Just like the tune for example. Tuna in the sushi restaurants are not freshly caught they are 'freshly prepared' for consumption so I made plans to store them in a freezer. Especially a new type of fish delicacy I discover here yesterday.
A magical poisonous porcupine fish, it can shoot hundreds of needles containing a magical poison that can kill anything even a whale. In my previous life a well-known old biologist with a British origin who is an icon in making environmental documentaries. The most poisonous animal on earth can be found not on land but in the sea. The top two on the list are a cuttlefish and a sea snail. A pufferfish is in the top ten. Well, this porcupine fish is on top of the top here in the magical world according to the nagas even the menfolks. A special process was made to capture and prepare the meat. The first time I tried it the feeling is very unique the moment it touch the mouth every single taste bud is being tickled continually like the flavor is poking all over. I swear if I was a girl I already had an orgasm that time.
That experience made me think of an idea to make an aphrodisiac out of its meat. Well, I am not a sex maniac but I am a man I will be a hypocrite if I say I will be a saint. Every true man has desires. I have that but I have control and I do fantasize sometimes. Like the time I saw how beautiful titties of my mo..... what the fuck am I thinking.
Unto the next destination the blacksmiths. Last time I inquire on what things they can and cannot offer officially. Surprisingly I discovered they have a special metal. Mythril but they only have a very small lump. It was displayed there, for the reason it's too lacking in volume. It was too small to create anything. But I did think of something. To make it a wand.
[the volume of the Mythril is still insufficient to make a proper wand] the blacksmith said.
[how about making the inside hollow so it can take a wand form perfectly.] I added
[that may be a great idea, it is possible, but if I may ask what are you going to do with a Mythril wand? There are many wandmakers that make great wands even customized wands. What are you gonna do with a plain metal wand, even if it's Mythril.]
[i will engrave runes to is to make it useful, Mythril itself is the best magical conductor than any known elements and that hollow center I intend to put a core there with the help of a great wandmaker in the future. So I need the bottom part to be resealable by putting a screw cap.]
[ that is very ingenious of you young master Ophias. I will do my best. I can form it overnight. Come back here tomorrow it will be finished.] this was our conversation yesterday and here I am now to collect what I order. I did exchange 1 of the elder isis leather for this job. But I do think it will be worth it.
