The test continues in the Commercial Guild.

"Ah, there's talc. This might be good for the base too."

That's what Anna says, so I went there with interest. There were some talcums and the powder. It is a mineral called "chalk" that writes letters on a tablet.

[talc]

Classification: Pigments

Quality: Quality

Rare: B

Details: Clay Minerals. The finer it is, the white powder becomes. I am familiar with the skin.

Feelings: Your skin looks white!

[talc]

Classification: Pigments

Quality: Low quality

Rare: B

Details: Clay Minerals. The finer it is, the white powder becomes. I am familiar with the skin.

Feelings: Your skin looks white! But I'm sorry, if you inhale my powder, it's mixed with ingredients that can cause malignancies...

What's this all about?

I called Oliver and asked him.

"This talcum seems to contain only one of several substances harmful to the body...."

"I've put away a few things with different origins... but depending on the place, something containing dangerous substances will be produced, so I can't use it. As expected, we don't have a rare [appraisal] for our staff, so we can't create a checking system."

That's how Mr. Oliver drops his shoulders.

"Oh, really? If the talc doesn't work... isn't there a silk mica or a white mica?

Anna-san said next time... and looked around. To complement that, Katua guides you to a place with a silk mica.

"Silk mica is here. We also offer powdered products."

[Silk Mica (Mica)]

Classification: Pigments

Quality: high quality

Rare: B

Details: Clay Minerals. The finer it is, the white powder becomes. Rich in fat and easy to get used to.

Feelings: Your skin looks white!

"Wow, it's so pure white, it suits my skin!

I try to stretch the powdery stuff to the back of my hand for the belly of my fingers.

"Yes, the silk mica harvested in the mountainous areas of northern Japan are highly pure and extremely white. We boast a reserve that can withstand export, even on a base basis."

Anna nods satisfactorily.

"This might be a good base. Mica silk powder is mixed with a small amount of" zinc flower ". Then, you can create a" new white powder "that has a whitening effect by deodorizing and preventing sunburn, rather than the previous" white powder "!

Anna is satisfied that she has developed a general idea.

"If you exchange it for a new white powder that has a better beauty effect for free, you will also be able to collect the sold white powder!

Oliver looks relieved by the prospect of another challenge, "collection."

"But Zinc Hua is a small amount of powder that can only be used on the surface where zinc comes into contact with the air. How do we mass produce this?

However, Katua's expression was "I don't understand", and she looked in trouble with her eyebrows raised.

"... that's where the Alchemist comes in. And it's the merchants' job to see how to do that and think about how to mass produce."

That said, Anna pulled me on her shoulders and pointed at Katyua and Oliver in turn with her other hand.

The four of us came to my atelier with zinc in a commercial guild carriage.

"Welcome back."

Mina and Marcus welcomed me between work.

"I'm going to use the lab by myself now, so I'd like to continue to welcome you to the store."

After they refused, they took them into the lab and came to the front of the alcohol pot.

"Daisy, it's getting pretty hot. I'm gonna need gloves and aprons."

Anna was careful, so I wore gloves and apron and held the stir bar in my hand. And then Anna continued and began explaining what she was going to do.

"Everyone knows about water. Lower temperatures cause ice to solidify, warmer temperatures cause water to melt and evaporate when heated by fire. This is the same thing with metal. I think it's just an image of a lump, but if it's hot, it melts, if it's hotter, it becomes steam. However, unlike water, the temperature is very high, so use the magic."

"" Eh!

The three described shout in surprise.

... I know it melts because I've made alloys before, but I'm surprised it's going to steam!

"Daisy, don't stand still. You do it."

Here, you're slapped on the back.

Yes!

My spine grew slightly as a result of being hit on the back.

Place a lump of zinc into the smelter and insert the stir bar into the smelter.

"Daisy, let the smelter heat up hot through the stir bar. Don't be surprised when it boils."

Yes!

From beneath the oheso in the middle of the body, more and more magic is poured through the body and arms into the stir bar, and the alcoholic pot is heated hot and hot. I feel a lot of magic being carried away. Then the zinc melts slowly and eventually starts to boil. As it heated up further, the amount of zinc liquid decreased and eventually disappeared. Then, clams and white powder accumulate in the alcoholic pot. A series of changes are taking place in the Alchemy.

"What is this...?

Me, K'Chua and Oliver check the sequence of changes and mutter unintentionally.

After all, the zinc has disappeared somewhere, and for some reason the white powder remains.

... why does it disappear when it evaporates? And what is this white powder that showed up?

"When zinc evaporates and becomes gaseous, it's linked to the air and becomes' zinc bloom '."

[Zinc Hua]

Classification: Pigments

Quality: Quality

Rare: B

Details: Compounds made of zinc in contact with air. White pigment. Prevents sunburn and eliminates smell due to bactericidal action.

Feelings: I'll make you a white beauty. It also prevents sunburn!

Ana-san was right, the zinc was turning into "zinc bloom."

And when I was finished, the alcohol kettle was very hot, and I and everyone were sweating at the heat of the room.
