Chapter 5
Chapter 5. The concubine's financial situation (3) In short, what is needed to make diamonds is carbon and the enormous pressure and heat to process the carbon.
Although you need a facility to apply pressure and heat to secure those two things.
If it were me, I could cry all of that with my mana!
Well, after a rough calculation, it seems like I'll have to pour a lot of the mana I've currently accumulated into manufacturing artificial diamonds, but it's worth it for my mother's smile and a warm winter.
In the first place, it's about playing, eating, and living.
So let's go into manufacturing immediately.
Allelic diamond manufacturing course that is easy to do with only mana.
First, get the firewood you need.
There's firewood here in a corner of the room for this winter.
Invest generously.
It's kind of an investment.
It is difficult if the fire moves into the room, so move everything into the fireplace.
Please put it in.
Once everything is put in, firewood is burned once.
Let's roast it and make it a good charcoal.
Don't forget to hit the wall with mana to block the heat so you don't get noticed.
After burning the firewood, charcoal remains.
Charcoal It's useless normally, but it's an important carbon source for me now.
“cadet! cadet!”
Now, here's the key.
This is something I need to focus on a little bit.
Because I have to write hard.
I slowly moved my hands and wrapped dozens and hundreds of layers of mana around the pile of charcoal again and again, as if directing an orchestra.
Although invisible to others, the sphere of blue mana was completed.
It's like a so-called pressure cooker.
I can guarantee that anyone with even the slightest knowledge of magic will faint in shock when they see this.
You're wasting your mana on weird things.
“iced coffee!”
Well, I put in a moderate amount of spirit.
The work to be done from now on should be done and there should be no mistakes.
After carefully covering it with mana so that not a single heat or harmful ingredient leaks out.
“Ahhh!!”
He clenched his fists with both hands.
I have a strong image in my head that I will completely distort it and leave no shape behind.
I use mana to heat it up, and then pour as much mana as I can to crush the charcoal with a huge mass.
The point here is to invest my mana without sparing it.
Mana, you need to stock up again anyway.
So I continued to steadily increase the pressure.
compression! compression! compression! compression! ZIP! compression!
“Aww!”
Anyway, it's pretty tight.
It would be simple for me after growing up, but for me who is still growing, this is also difficult.

Even now, it's not enough to reach the target, so I have to keep raising the internal pressure.
The key to making artificial diamonds is how hard and how long you can apply enormous pressure.
“Euuuuuu .....”
Because I concentrated on high-density mana and applied pressure, the more I applied the force, the more the charcoal pile started to get smaller as if it were gradually shrinking.
As I carefully increased the pressure, the pile of charcoal in the fireplace became smaller than my knuckles.
Don't underestimate how small it is.
Now this pressure sphere is like a bomb.
“Ooh!”
Joe little! little bit more!
It's hard, but I groaned and worked hard for my mother.
Finally the sphere of pressure was smaller than my fingernails.
Then, for a brief moment, I focused on maintaining that pressure.
Now, would it be?
Now is the time to release the pressure.
Of course, if you explode at once, a catastrophe will happen.
At least one of these rooms is blown away.
This time, more carefully than when applying pressure, he slowly let the energy filled in the sphere flow upward through the chimney.
Just release the pressure slowly like that and voila.
A very small but decent diamond shines.
Diamond making!
How easy is it?
....easy asshole.
I thought I was going to die hard.
I was lying on my back, gasping for strength.
blood tired!
This is the first time in my life that I have used my strength this far.
It's still hot, so after waiting for it to cool down, I took out the artificial diamond specially made by Arell from the fireplace.
Diamonds rolling in the palm of my hand.
Whew? I don't know who made it, but he's so pretty.
“Aww?…”
He nodded his head while pretending to be indifferent.
hmm. So how many carats does he weigh?
Well, I don't know about the quality of gems.
I know jewelry is expensive, but I don't know how to judge its value.
I'm a reincarnation expert, but my specialty is destruction.
First of all, looking at the pure white glitter, I think the result is not bad for a first attempt.
If you can live with this for a few years without starving, it's perfect...
If it's not enough, just make it a few more times.
In fact, this artificial diamond manufacturing is not at all profitable for me.
Compared to the amount of mana required to generate and maintain high heat and pressure, only such a small jewel is born.
Considering what the raw materials are, the quality probably won't be good. After I grow up, I won't do this again.
I don't know if one or two are rolling around, but if there are several more of these on the market, someone will definitely doubt it.
If there is power to make something like this, it is beneficial to use it more valuablely.
At least I just have to hold on until I grow enough to be able to control my body properly.
ruler? That's all that's left now
Now you're trying to figure out how to pass this man-made diamond naturally.
Suddenly I said, “Mom! Diamonds here!” Wouldn't it be embarrassing to try and stick it out?
It is important here how naturally you hand it over.
Do you think it would be okay if I spit it out after messing around?
Or...
I started looking around the room trying to figure out how to hand this diamond over.
ruler? Come up with an idea, my neurons!
Back in the crib before the nanny noticed, I began to figure out how to deliver it naturally, with the man-made diamond in hand.
What's the point of saying this?
If you just stick out, there's a chance you won't use this. If I could speak the language
, I ‘d be fair and fair about how I got this through lies and fabrications.
There is a possibility that he will know and find the owner and not sell it.
“Ah??????
For that reason, it seemed that a nanny would be the most suitable person to deliver this diamond.
If you have the personality of a nanny, if you have a good reason, you will naturally sell it and exchange it for living expenses.
And her character is believable.
It was judged that the possibility of carrying money and jumping out was small.
reason? In the meantime, I've seen countless people and been hit by the head, and the feeling I've built up is probably that this person won't betray me and my mother.
for that reason.
nurse! decided on you!
So now what's important.
How do I pass this diamond on to her casually? I'm doing it.
As I glanced around the room, I paid attention to a corner and smiled.
* * *
“Kyaaah. Curry!”
While Arel was asleep, the nanny, who was handling miscellaneous tasks for the management of the concubine, tilted her head at the sound of laughter heard in the room where Arel was.
“Prince? oh?”
The nanny, who was trying to check on Arel's condition, tilted her head as if wondering.
Isn't Arel, who should have been sleeping in bed, laughing and playing on the floor before she knew it?
“…How did you get down?”
Allel is just rolling or crawling.
It's probably not the right time to get out of the crib...
but babies sometimes do unexpected things.
“I couldn’t take my eyes off you.”
When it comes to parenting, a nanny with experience decided not to think deeply.
I only reflected on myself that I would have to pay more attention next time.
Arel couldn't be left rolling on the floor, so the nanny went over to him and picked him up.
“Prince. Since the floor is cold, go back to the warm bed... Oh my?”
The nanny looked puzzled.
The carpet where Arel was playing was torn.
It even had a slight depression, as if it had been dug into the unsightly exposed ground.
“…was it like this?”
In her recollection, she had never seen a home like this.
There's no way anyone would have dug it up now, was it originally like this?
“Why is this….
The concubine is old, but it is not damage caused by aging.
It was a little odd that it was oddly hollowed out there.
As if they had created a place that was just right to hide something.....
“Ah?????? Taa!”
While the nanny was lost in thought, wondering, Arell suddenly struggled in her arms.
I was distracted by useless thoughts for a while.
After a little reflection, the nanny turned her gaze back to Arel.
And I found something shiny in Arel's mouth, which was mumbling.
“oh? In the mouth of the prince...
It won't be a toy or a treat.
Have you ever put a foreign object that fell on the floor into your mouth?
I don't know what it is, but if Arel swallows it, it's a big deal.
“It doesn’t work. ruler. please come here That's dirty.”
The nanny panicked and put her hand in Arel's mouth and forced it out.
Arel did not resist and allowed the nanny to take it out of her mouth.
“...what the hell did you put in your mouth...
and the nanny was silent.
It seemed that her eyes were refusing to judge because her brain couldn't adapt to the momentary situation.
When the nanny had overcome the brain strike and blinked again, a scream was about to escape from the corner of her mouth.
“?...suck?!”
He suppressed the voice that was about to come out.
It was because I thought at the same time that I shouldn't surprise him because I was holding Arel, and I thought that I shouldn't make a fuss here.
“Wow… Prince? I barely suppressed my trembling voice and looked down at Arel.
“Aww?”
Arel was just smiling as if he didn't know anything.
If she had been a normal nanny, she might have noticed that the baby's smile seemed to be acting, but she didn't have time to realize that.
“...This can't be..... Dia....
didn't say more than that.
There is only Nanny and Arel here now, but for some reason, I couldn't bear to say anything unnecessary because I was afraid that someone would see it.
I'm not good at discerning the quality in detail, but this rolling on her palm must be a diamond.
“Where did the prince get this…
Unfortunately, I don’t have enough finances to play with the baby and give him expensive jewelry.
Wouldn't it be better if he was the first prince, the son of the queen and heir to the royal family?
Arel can't go anywhere, and the door is locked just in case.
If so, the source of this diamond must be somewhere in this room...
However, the nanny carefully manages every property in this concubine.
There can be no property she doesn't know about.
If you knew the existence of this jewel, you wouldn't have to worry about it this winter.
“...that's strange.”
Nanny, who was deeply troubled, recalled the groove dug in the floor earlier.
Surely it was just the right size to hide a jewel of this size...?
Come to think of it, I've never ripped it to the bottom while managing it.
What if this is someone's hidden gem?
