Chapter 213 213 – Capitalism
As evening fell, the village discovered itself immersed in a spectacular sight that appeared to have been woven from the threads of magic itself. Lamps of mana, delicately hung across the village, started to glow in unison, like new child stars showing within the celestial vault. In a matter of seconds, the village was immersed in a profusion of white lights, an expertise that many peasants had by no means imagined they might witness of their humble lives.
“Wow, is {that a} magic torch?” exclaimed one of many youthful ladies, her eyes extensive with amazement.
Maki, with a delighted smile, stroked the little lady’s head. “No, darling, that is a mana lamp,” she defined tenderly, “and you’ll thank Grasp Ryan for this present.”
The little lady ran in the direction of Ryan and humbly bowed her head, whispering in a low tone, “Thanks, Grasp Ryan.”
Ryan, seeing the gratitude within the kid’s eyes, took a step again and, kneeling in entrance of her, stated, “If you wish to thank me, simply be a great little lady and assist your village, okay?” He smiled gently, conveying a way of accountability and generosity.
The lady nodded fortunately and, with a beaming smile, ran again to Maki. As she hid behind the elf, two different kids approached.
“Grasp Ryan is wonderful,” one in every of them commented. “He seems like a prince,” added the opposite.

Instantly, the firmament got here alive with an unimaginable symphony of colours and light-weight. Tiny spheres of sunshine, like capturing stars, appeared and started to bounce among the many clouds.n.-o-.v-/e–l-)b)(1))n
The Wisps, swish and radiant, floated in a serene motion, creating shimmering patterns that caught the gaze of everybody, from exhausted peasants to curious kids. It was a really dazzling sight, as if dozens of luminous fairies had been performing a nocturnal choreography within the sky, spreading pleasure and magic with each motion. They left a superb, ephemeral path, as if the sky itself had been telling a narrative of enchantment and thriller.
The youngsters, unable to include their fascination, approached the spheres of sunshine, cautiously reaching out to the touch these magical Wisps, which gave the impression to be product of pure, good power. Once they touched them, as a substitute of being burned, they felt a delicate, cozy heat, like heat hugs. The sunshine present continued for a couple of extra minutes, filling everybody with a way of surprise and belonging to a magical and welcoming world.
Your entire village gathered to witness this astonishing phenomenon. Because the spheres of sunshine started to disperse, taking with them a number of the magic they’d shared, the villagers shared smiles and animated conversations, realizing that they’d skilled one thing really particular. Ryan, with a modest smile, headed for the portal
Lastly, Ryan stated goodbye with a wave of his hand and began strolling in the direction of the portal.
“Wait!” shouted the identical lady as earlier than. Ryan circled to search out her panting in entrance of him, her arm outstretched as she held a small stone.
“Right here! A gift!” she stated, Ryan took the stone in his hand and widened his eyes.
“Thanks very a lot! Is it a gift?” He requested.
The lady nodded in affirmation. As Ryan appraised the stone, he realized that it was one thing somewhat extra particular than the lady had imagined. Stroking the little lady’s hair, he requested, “The place did you get that?”
The lady circled and pointed again “After the village, close to the start of the forest. There are a number of stones like that, some about this dimension” she stated, as she held out each arms attempting to point out Ryan.
“Thanks very a lot for telling me, and thanks for the present” Ryan stated, after which the 2 of them went their separate methods.
<What’s that stone?> Nyx requested, confused.
As Ryan stepped by means of the portal, his eyes glowed with a pink mild as his Demon Sight was activated. “I’ve little doubt, that is magical iron,” he stated.
The stone was somewhat heavy, product of a shiny materials that seemed like silver. As Ryan handed his mana by means of the fabric, it was simply absorbed and saved inside the composition of the fabric.
‘The youngsters had been most likely drawn to the shine of this merchandise, after they touched it the kids’s unstable mana movement made the metallic shine even brighter,’ he concluded.
A smile appeared on Ryan’s face as he walked.
‘I might by no means heard of magical iron reserves bigger than a human youngster’
<Wait… which means>
Ryan nodded, turning to have a look at the portal once more.
‘That is most likely the most important reserve of magical iron ever discovered. There isn’t any doubt about it, the Silvermoons’ financial sovereignty is now assured.
Magical iron was an especially necessary materials within the First World economic system. A pure magical iron sword was extraordinarily costly and tons of of instances extra environment friendly than a man-made magical iron sword. A lot of the magical iron utilized in buildings or weapons was constructed from alloys of supplies mixed in a chemical and magical course of.
Shortly, Ryan walked in the direction of Kyouko’s workplace, the place Rin was now engaged on the paperwork for the switch of possession of the household illustration. Working down the corridors, Ryan opened the door with pressure, startling the lady.
“Ryan?! Did one thing occur?” Rin requested, confused.
Ryan’s pink eyes stared into Rin’s face, “How a lot cash do we have now within the clan coffers?”
“We’ve got a couple of billion, do you want it for the village?” the lady replied confusedly.
Ryan stated in an especially severe tone of voice, “We’ll purchase the complete inventory of pure magical iron in the marketplace.”
Rin’s first response was to suppose it was a joke. However Ryan’s severe look was screaming at her that it wasn’t a prank. Confused, she checked out him and on the payments on his desk.
The Silvermoons’ monetary state of affairs wasn’t unhealthy, the clan had a great reserve of cash on the Lacaster inventory change. As well as, the variety of vacationers affiliated with the clan meant that the influx of working capital was fixed even in a interval of falling product gross sales. Nevertheless, it was a interval of uncertainty now that the Lightstones had been taking management of the clan’s gross sales.
Rin closed her eyes and breathed deeply for a couple of seconds, opening her eyes she stated to Ryan, “You… You realize that is too excessive a worth. Do not you?”.
Ryan nodded and threw the stone to the lady. She caught the merchandise within the air with ease with out even having to look in its course, in a stunning show of dexterity.
“Good catch!” he stated, however the lady’s eyes had been startled as she seemed on the merchandise.
“Magic iron… Did you go right into a dungeon at the moment?” stated the lady.
Nodding his head, Ryan pointed again along with his thumb “I discovered this on the portal to the village”.
Inside seconds, Rin’s apprehensive face modified to one in every of shock. Her eyes had been extensive and she or he had a giant smile on her face, “Yeah, we have now a magic iron mine?!” she shouted, leaping up from her chair.
“Sure, we do,” Ryan replied in the identical tone of voice. The lady jumped up from the desk and ran to hug her grasp. The 2 grabbed one another and Ryan spun her round within the air as they danced in celebration of their victory.
* Knock Knock
The sound of the door opening caught each their consideration and so they seemed on the lady standing within the doorway. Ayumi was scratching behind her ears, her face somewhat flushed with embarrassment.
“I did not wish to disturb you two,” stated the fox.
There was silence within the room till Ryan launched Rin to the ground. They each cleared their throats on the similar time, and in that awkward state of affairs Ryan stated, “Do you want something?”
Ayumi sat down within the chair subsequent to Rin’s desk and started to clarify what she was pondering.
Within the second world, there was a extra environment friendly technique for extracting iron ores, at the very least this technique was utilized within the icy mountains the place Ayumi was born. Utilizing rivers and tributaries, magicians skilled in elemental water magic used these streams to wash the land and mine the supplies.
The contact between the water and the earth did not put on away the magical iron, which made it simpler to clear the land afterwards and prevented the most important drawback in mining any such materials. Pure magical iron is extraordinarily fragile towards impacts, which makes it troublesome to mine.
Nevertheless, as soon as the fabric receives somewhat extra mana, it will increase its resistance exponentially till it turns into virtually indestructible.
“The one drawback is that the principle islands do not have the water movement to do this sort of mining,” stated Rin, who had already visited the village in the course of the afternoon.
Ryan shook his head in denial, “We are able to use one of many smaller islands to create a waterfall over the realm we wish to mine.”
The 2 ladies checked out Ryan in awe, they hadn’t considered this chance. “The water reserves on the islands are nearly infinite with the power crystals, we simply must put them in place and management the water we use,” he concluded.
