“Now then, shall we begin skill synthesis?”
I took out the equipment I bought at the armor shop from storage and turned them into potions.
I created herculean strength potion, defense up potion, and speed up potion.
I also created rings using the leftover materials.
I made them into a ring of herculean strength, a ring of defense up, and a ring of speed up, and stored each of them in the Storage.
As usual, I adjust the Skill level to 1 and synthesize them into my body.
“Tettere─! Lotorl has acquired Herculean Strength, Defense UP, and Speed UP Skills!”
Perhaps because of the Herculean Strength, my body feels light.
My speed of walking has also become faster because of the Speed UP.
As for Defense UP... I can’t tell.
I tried pulling out a strand of my hair, but the pain level hasn't changed, so I can’t really tell.
Next, I tried pinching my cheek, but this was also the same as before. What is Defense?
“Hmm? Well, that's fine for now. Now, what should I do next?”
Compounding a new medicine? Synthesizing food or alchemizing an unknown substance?
The things I want to do are endless.
“...Is it possible to synthesize Skills?”
I suddenly came up with that idea, so it’s time for an experiment.
*
“Fuh, here I go! ...Giiiiiiiiiii!!”
My turn! Draw!
I sacrifice the little finger of my left hand to summon a Lotorl Potion!
In addition, I activate a quick attack magic! Mega potion!
Due to the effect of the mega potion, the little finger of my left hand that I sacrificed is regenerated!
Turn end!
“I need a pain blocking Skill! Desperately!”
I put the Lotorl Potion I created as insurance in case I make a mistake with the synthesis away into Storage, and start synthesizing the Skills in my body.
“First, I’ll synthesize Defense UP and Speed UP and... Defense Speed UP Skill.”
I can do this, I thought. Just like an alchemist. I didn’t use Alchemy though.
“Fufufu. I have advanced one more step in my evolution.”
I wonder how far the little girl god is imagining how much of a cheat I am.
“I'm going to become the god of the new world! Just kidding”
I have no intention of becoming a god whatsoever though.
“Now, let's keep going!”
The result of synthesizing everything that can be synthesized is:
Compounding Skill level 35, Synthesis Skill level 37, Alchemy Skill level 40, Appraisal Skill level 20, Potion Creation Skill, Flight Skill level 5, Wind Light Flame Resurrection Cure-all Healing Teleportation Magic Skill level 1, Magic Recovery skill level 10, Swordsmanship Skill level 1. Storage Skill level 2, Body Modification Skill level 1, Herculean Strength Defense Speed UP Skill level 1.
And it became like that.
Is it by design that the Skill level becomes 1 when synthesized?
“I guess there was no need to force myself to synthesize them? Well, whatever.”
The Magic Skills are jumbled up, but it feels like it's easier to imagine magic than before, so it's okay, isn't it?
As a result of synthesizing Teleportation Skill with Magic Skills, I was able to learn magic that opens a teleportation gate to any arbitrary location.
This will reduce teleportation accidents. Wall butt incident avoided.
Thanks to Resurrection Skill and Cure-all Healing Skill being synthesized into the Magic Skill, it is now possible to heal injuries. Of course, resurrection and curing illness is still possible, but it seems like it will take quite a bit of magic power. That's a good thing because the only restriction was the amount of magic power consumed. I also have Magic Power Recovery Skill, so I can resurrect as much as I want. And I can recover as much as I want.
“With skill synthesis, my dream is expanding. I want more Skills.”
It might be a good idea to collect skills by visiting weapon shops around the world. Going home is easy with teleportation anyway.
If I have Skills like eagle eyes and maps, going around will probably be easier.
Now that I've finished with the first stage of my skill synthesis, I wonder if I should do food synthesis or maybe use alchemy to make fashionable goods to decorate my room?
“Mumu, I feel a presence that says I’ll come up with something...?”
Maybe because of the skill synthesis, I feel like my inspiration power has increased.
Hmm, for example, if I synthesize an ability-up skill into a seed and let it grow, maybe it will produce a fruit with a different ability-up skill?
“I guess I’ll try it.”
Since I want a plant that can produce a lot of fruit, I used grape seeds and synthesized Defense UP and Speed UP from duplicated rings into them.
To duplicate the ring, I simply split it vertically. And then, I reshape the one I want to preserve using Alchemy Skill and store it in Storage.
Let’s grow the grape vines outside.
I don't want them to grow big inside the house after all.
“I guess around here is fine.”
The area around my house is full of vacant land so I can plant wherever I want.
If I feel like it, I might even be able to cultivate a field.
I plant the grape seeds synthesized with Skills on the ground and spray them with a high fertilizer potion. Then, grape vines began to grow one after another, and in no time, grapes grew on them. I know it's a little late for this, but this is cheating, I’m a cheater! But, however, I have the mindset that I’ll use anything I can as long as it's convenient.
“Let’s see, appraisal appraisal... mumumu!?”
There it was! there was!
Attack UP and this one is Evasion UP!
“Nice, nice! Nic-!?”
Level UP!?
Even with mastered Appraisal Skill, it didn’t display RPG-like levels, so I thought anything other than Skill level didn’t exist, but this grape does indeed display Level UP.
“My ring, my ring!”
I wanted to know the details about the Level UP Skill, so I hurriedly took out the appraisal ring from Storage and equipped it.
“Level UP Skill, allows you to gain experience points and increase your level by defeating monsters and other actions, each time you increase your level, your ability values will increase...”
This is really a skill that can make you level up!?
“Dangerous, let’s synthesize it quickly!”
I liquefy the grape and synthesize it into myself!
“Tettere─! Lotorl has reached level 1!”
When I examined myself using Appraisal, it displayed level 1.
“Kukuku, I may be the first person in this world to be able to level up... fufu, fufufu, fuHAAHHAHAHA!!”
Pardon me. I let out a loud laughter that sounds like a demon lord’s.
But well, I don't really want to exterminate monsters after all this time though.
I already have food, clothing, and shelter, the city is peaceful, and there's no demon lord, so I don't think there's any need to go out of my way to put myself in danger.
I'm sure there are many people who are suffering tragedy somewhere in this world, but I can't save them all. At best, I wish I can protect the people who are important to me within my reach, that’s what I think.
I don’t have that many people who are important to me anyway, and I don't think I'll find that many people like that. I have communication disorder after all.
“Well, I'm not saying I won't get stronger though.”
Wouldn't it be fun to try out different ways to become stronger while having fun?
“For now, let’s synthesize the ability-up Skills.”
I go on to appraise the grapes that are ripe, finding ones with Skills that increase a person’s ability, like life force, mental strength, willpower, concentration, stamina, endurance, physical strength, magic power, muscle strength, charm, eyesight, hearing, dexterity, comprehension, destiny, and more, ones that have resistance-up Skills such as poison resistance, paralysis resistance, sleep resistance, faint resistance, fatigue resistance, pain resistance, and more, and unusual ones that increase things like item drop rate, experience points, economic fortune, morbidity rate, mortality rate, birth rate, goods’ quality, water quality, lipids, and more.
Of course, since they are originally plants, they also have ones for size, weight, pattern, nutrition, sugar content, texture, shape, flavor, scent, and tone.
“There are so many varieties that I get confused!”
The things to look forward to are increasing.
I was grinning from beginning to end as I compounded and synthesized the Skills, acquiring All-Ability UP Skill and All-Resistance UP Skill.
“Phew, let's stop here for today.”
As you’d expect, I was really tired.
No, actually, I'm not tired thanks to my Skills, but I have other things I want to do, so I'll stop here today.
I stored all the grapes that I selectively bred (?) into Storage and finished today's work.
Before I knew it, the sky was darkening into dusk. Just how focused was I?
“Let's go home and eat.”
I returned to the tree house and prepared for dinner.
Dinner is shogayaki made by synthesizing cabbage, pork, and ginger.
Eh? Where I got the pork, ginger, soy sauce, mirin, and alcohol? I just bought them normally at the market, you know?
There is no great difference in diet between this world and that world.
As expected, Japanese food such as sashimi, sushi, and miso soup is hardly available though.
Mu, now that I think about it, I didn't ask them where they got soy sauce and mirin from.
Let's ask them about it sometime soon.
“Then, itadakimasu! Munch, munch... hmm, it's mediocre...”
I suppose not everything can be synthesized.

Come to think of it, even though I was reincarnated in a fantasy world, I never went to the weapon shop.
Let's go right away!
“‘elcome.”
Ooh, truly a fantasy weapon shop!
At first glance, they look like just cosplay props, but they’re all real!
“Uwaaa, a sword that looks like the evil eye user would like it.”
I'm neither an evil eye user nor a chuunibyou person, but my heart is bouncing in excitement.
Let's wander around the shop and look for things that have skills or magic attached to them.
“Sharpness up, this one is poison, sleep, paralysis, confusion, defense up, herculean strength, speed up, there sure are a lot of variety.”
The price is also reasonable.
I can buy them, but I'll be in trouble if the bad guys notice it, so let’s just be satisfied to know that such skills and magic exist.
“Ojou-chan, what a strange coincidence, meeting you in a place like this.”
“Ah, the onii-san who I know but don’t know your name!”
“O-ooh, I guess I didn't say my name. My name is Daigen, best regards!”
“Once again, I’m Lotorl. Please take care of me.”
He held out his right hand in a gesture to ask me to shake his hand, so I shook it with both of my hands and answered with a smile.
It ended up feeling like an idol handshake event, but it just happened naturally because his hand was just so big. There's no ulterior motive.
* (T/N: I don’t know who he is, I assume he’s one of the adventurers Lotorl talked to in the guild. Also, Lotorl shaking his hand with both hands is similar to what Idols do in the handshake event.)
“If you're having trouble choosing equipment, let me introduce you to my recommendations.”
“I’m not having trouble though, ah, could you please buy me this, this, and this?”
“Nn, well, I don't mind, but I think it's too hard for Ojou-chan to use it, you know?”
“Don’t worry about it, quickly, quickly!”
“Y-yeah.”
I asked Daigen-san to buy me a defense up helmet, strength up gauntlets, and speed up boots. The total price was 600,000 El.
“I bought it?”
“Thank you very much! I'm afraid people will look at me strangely if I buy them, so that's helpful.”
“Is that so? Well, I'm glad I could help.”
I paid for the purchase with my card and put each box of equipment in the Storage disguised as an item box in my stomach pocket.
“That’s... I see. I guess being cautious is the basics of being an adventurer.”
He looked at my stomach pocket and then looked at my face and it hit me.
“Daigen-san, do you have Appraisal?”
“Nn? Well, what do you think?”
My current Appraisal level is 10, but I should be able to appraise Daigen-san's skills.
I tried to do it, but the result was so blurry that I couldn't understand it.
Then, let’s equip the appraisal ring from my Storage.
The blur disappeared and Daigen-san's skill list was displayed.
Appraisal, Iron Wall, Mood Maker, Dauntless, Sewing Skill level 30, Shield Technique Skill level 20, Cooking Skill level 10.
“You─saw─it─?”
“Is that something you can tell?”
“I can tell to some extent through experience. It's something other than skills or magic, what you might call “intuition”. Well, in Ojou-chan’s case, it might also be because you suddenly started rummaging around and stared intently at me.”
“I see.”
“Anyway, Ojou-chan’s Skills and Magic are all over the place.”
The list of my current skills:
Compounding, Synthesis, Alchemy, Appraisal, Potion Creation, Flight, Wind Magic, Light Magic, Magic Recovery, Teleportation, Swordsmanship, Flame, Storage, Resurrection, Cure-all Healing, Body Modification, and in addition, I plan to add Herculean Strength, Defense UP, and Speed UP soon.
“Collecting skills is like a hobby for me after all.”
“I wish you could share a little with me too.”
“I’ll share it with you depending on the money, you know?”
“Seriously!?”
“I've never done it on anything other than my own body, so I can't guarantee its safety though.”
“Alright, alright. Well, let’s see, first I want Flight Skill, then Swordsmanship and Storage. How much is it?”
“Ummmm, about 5 million El, I guess?”
“Aah, how about just Flight?”
“About 2 million?”
“...Hmm. Should I cut down on food expenses...?”
Daigen-san touched his chin with his right hand and rubbed his stomach with his left hand as he seemed to be thinking about how much he could cut down on food expenses.
I don't think you should cut down your food expenses with that huge body.
“Can’t you just wait until you have saved up enough money?”
“No, flying in the sky is a man's romance! I'll pay you 2 million El!”
After saying that, Daigen-san took out a card from his pocket towards me, and I, enticed, also took out my card and received the 2 million El.
“Alright, come at me!”
“I can't do it here. Please come to my house.”
“Oh, I see. Let's go quickly!”
The second guest to our house was Daigen-san.
Why am I bringing a man into my house? That's what I thought, but he’s not the type of person who would do anything weird, so I guess it's okay.
*
“Ooh, amazing house you have there!”
“Fufun!”
My nose becomes longer when people are surprised when they see our proud house! This seems like it will become a habit.
“But, how do you get in?”
“With Flight Skill of course.”
“I see!”
Hugging Daigen-san is kinda meh, so we just held hands and flew.
“Ooh! The inside is nice too! I want to live in a house like this too!”
“Fufuu─n!”
If you compliment me that much, my nose might just pierces through the sky. In the end it might even turn into a drill nose as it breaks through the heavens.
“Then, I will synthesize a Flight Skill, so please make your hands into a bowl.”
“Oh, already? I'm getting pumped up!”
I take out a Flight Potion from my Storage and pour it into Daigen-san's hand.
“Synthesis!”
“Mumu!?”
The Flight Potion seeped into Daigen-san's hand.
When I appraised Daigen-san's skill, it displayed Flight Skill level 1.
“Success.”
“Ooh! Really!? Let’s flugeah!?”
“Oh...”
Bonk! With that terrible sound, Daigen-san hit his head on the ceiling. That’s because he suddenly flew...
This house is made of aero adamantite, but no matter how well it absorbs shock, if you hit your head at that speed, it would be quite painful.
Or maybe, he’s okay because he has Iron Wall Skill?
“It hurts, but I’m okay! Hahaha! With this, I can fly in the sky too!”
“Good for you. But, from now on, it would be better to ban Flight Skill inside the house.”
“Right!”
He’s itching to fly in the sky as soon as possible, so I decided to call it a day with this for today.
I wanted to see his surprised faces when I served him food, but I guess it's okay for today.
“Then I’ll save up some money and then visit you again!”
“You can just visit me normally, you know.”
“I see! See you then!”
“See you later. Please fly low and take care on your way back.”
“Yeah!”
As soon as he walked out the door, he used his Flight Skill to literally fly home.
I guess it's because he’s at his most excited, he started yelling, that’s quite a nuisance to the neighborhood.

Come to think of it, didn’t I promise the Real Estate Guild onee-san to show her my house when it was completed?
Let's invite her right away!
Teleporting within the city is dangerous in many ways, so I’ll use Flight Skill and Wind Magic Skill to move at high speed.
I use my Flight Skill to float a bit, and then use my Wind Magic Skill to shoot out a strong wind from my back.
“Agya-!?”
I fell forward and collided with the ground. Failure failure.
This time, let’s carefully, little by little, shoot it out.
“O-ooh, fast, fast.”
With my current Flight Skill level, I can only reach the speed of running, but if I boost it with Wind Magic Skill like this, it is possible to reach the speed of a bicycle.
Now, to the Real Estate Guild, depart!
*
“Good afternoon.”
“Ara, welcome. Is everything going well with building your secret base?”
“It's going well, or rather, it's completed, so I came to invite you.”
“Eh? You already completed your secret base? If the construction is shoddy, Onee-san will be disappointed, you know...”
“It's okay. I think you'll be surprised for sure when you see it.”
“Really? In that case, let's go see it right away.”
“Yes, ah, but, you are still at work, right? You should come around evening──”
“It's okay, it's okay. There are other people around, and it's part of my job to make sure there's no problem with the place I introduced you to.”
“That’s, so you just want to slack off...?”
“It’s just some people who say that.”
“So you are slacking off.”
“I’m not.”
“Slacker.”
“...Now then, I'm off to do a little outside work!”
Onee-san grabbed my hand and forcibly took me outside.
“I won’t care if they get angry at you later, okay?”
“It's okay. Checking if a vacant lot opened up and if a bargain property is real are part of my job after all.”
“I guess it’s fine then.”
“Haa─, to think I can take a walk while working, what a refreshing feeling.”
Freed from work and completely relaxed, Onee-san raised her arms and stretched them out.
“Aren’t you just slacking off after all...?”
“No, this is work. A hard and painful heavy labor!”
“Aa─h, that's true─”
If Onee-san thinks so, then it must be so, inside Onee-san’s heart that is.
“Come to think of it, I haven't given you my name yet, haven’t I? My name is Lotorl.”
“Lotorl-chan, right? I'm Terla. Nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you.”
Accompanying Terla-san slacking off in the name of working, we went window shopping around the city while heading to our destination, my house.
“Eh? This is your secret base!? That's a lie... a house like this, a house? This is the first time I've seen this...”
“Fufun!”
It seemed like she was more surprised than I expected, I'm very satisfied.
“Eh, but wait, how do we get inside?”
“You get in like this.”
“Hiyaa!?”
When I hugged Terla-san and jumped up using my Flight Skill, Terla-san strongly hugged me back. My face is right around Terla's chest, so the sensation is amazing! Guhehe.
“We've arrived.”
“We’re falling! We’re falling!”
“No, like I said, we’ve arrived in my house.”
“Save me!!”
“Migyaaaa!? It's going to break, it's going to break!!”
I decided to be moderate with the mischief.
“I thought I was going to die...”
“I'm sorry. I'm a little bad with heights...”
“I'm also sorry for surprising you.”
“It's okay. Anyway, this is a nice house, isn't it?”
Terla-san looked impressed as she looked around the room.
I'm glad that my taste doesn't seem to be bad.
“Thank you very much. Since you came all the way here, please have something to eat.”
“Yes, then I'll take advantage of your word and treat myself.”
Should I go with weed meat and tomato mushrooms for steak, and just plain melon for dessert?
As I am skillfully cooking, I hear Terla whispering to herself, “Will you be my child?” But I'm cooking right now, so I'm going to concentrate on this.
“Thank you for waiting. Please enjoy your meal.”
“It looks delicious! I’ll be having it!”
The finished dishes were arranged on plates and each served at the dining table.
The drink is a health potion. It tastes like vegetable juice, so it's completely more delicious than the cure-all healing potion. It might be a good idea to try synthesizing fruit juice later.
“This is delicious! Lotorl-chan, you’re really good at cooking!”
“Thank you very much. I'm happy you liked it.”
I have completely taken over Terla-san's stomach.
Now it’s only a matter of time before she falls to me.
If there was a title system, I might have gotten the title of Onee-san Killer.
After that, we had a casual chat and called it a day.
When we got out of the house, my face was crushed into Terla-san's chest as we got down, it was the best.
“I want a ladder.”
“For security reasons, it’s rejected.”
“Uuu...”
Now that I've safely dropped Terla-san off in the city, I think I'll do some shopping and head home.

After a while, the evil brat’s father came alone.
“Would you mind talking to me for a minute?”
“What is it?”
“It’s about this tree, but do you have any plant-related Skills? If you do, it would be helpful if you could help us with our fields. Of course, we will pay you properly. What do you think?”
“A job request, is it...?”
Hmm, I don’t have anything special to do, so I guess it's okay.
“I understand. Is it okay to receive the harvested crops as payment?”
“Aah, if you’re okay with that, then it’s helpful for us too. We're poor farmers after all.”
Well, I guess there's no way people living on the outskirts of the city are rich.
(It was Lotorl who thought of such a very rude thing, by the previous life.)
When I jumped out of the window and landed using my Flight Skill, the father was shocked.
Come to think of it, I haven’t heard his name.
“My name is Lotorl.”
“Y-yeah, I'm Tan Hee. Nice to meet you.”
We shook hands and headed to the field.
“It’s about this field, only this area is not growing well. Can you do something about it?”
“I'll take a look for a bit.”
When I appraised the soil, it appeared to be heavily infested with mold fungi.
At first glance, it doesn't seem like there is any mold growing anywhere, but this is isekai, and the isekai mold that only feeds on plant nutrients is doing something bad while making sure that humans don't notice them.
To think I’d come across molds that are cunning enough to not propagate on growing vegetables, and do their harm only in the soil, isekai sure is scary. Could it be that mold monsters exist?
I got scared when I imagined it.
“Fumu fumu, it looks like it’s infested with mold, so please give up on this whole area.”
“...I see. Then I'm counting on you to help me with the safe fields.”
“That’s what I'd like to say, but it's okay. I'll make sure you can use this field as well.”
And so, I liquefied the field contaminated with mold along with the crops, then hit it with Fireballs and brought it to a boil, exterminating the mold. Then, I used my Compounding Skill to remove a moderate amount of water and sprinkled it with a fertilizing potion to return it to healthy soil.
“It’s done. All that's left is to mix the fertilizer, plow the land, and sow the seeds. Then, I’ll leave that to Tan Hee-san.”
I haven’t learned Farming Skill or Earth Magic, so there’s no way I can plow the land, right?
If I was asked to make a vinyl greenhouse, I could probably do it with my Alchemy Skill though.
Piling up soil and planting seeds are works that need to be done by hand, so they’re a bit bothersome.
“...Y-yeah, I guess I should. I'll go get a hoe, in the meantime, could you please check the other fields to see if there are any problems?”
“I understand. If there are any crops that are ready to be harvested, I can have them, right?”
“Yeah, I don’t care. Take as much as you want.”
“Thank you very much.”
I took a quick look around and the other fields seemed fine, so which field should I harvest from?
“Melon! I chose you!”
I said that, but they are still small melons that have just ripened.
Just in case, I examined the soil once more and confirmed that there was no problem, then I sprayed high fertilizer potion with a sprayer and harvested the melon that had turned into a large ball.
“Let's eat some.”
I took out the adamantite all-purpose knife and cutting board from Storage, cut the large-ball melon in half, and put the other half away in storage.
Next, I take out a spoon from Storage, and then, itadakimasu.
“Slurp slurp, yum yum, so sweeeet!”
It was so delicious that it would cost more than 10,000 El if I bought it at a store.
I eat until I’m satisfied and put the rest in Storage.
Let's move on to the next crop.
“Carrots, green peppers, cabbage, green onions, turnips, daikon, grapes, watermelon, oranges, strawberries... this is way too broad.”
I don't know much about fields, but I feel like this will deplete the soil of its nutrients.
Well, if it were me, I can probably do something about it with potions though.
I harvested every crop that was ripening and put them into Storage.
Let's carefully compound, synthesize, and alchemize them later.
“How are the other fields doing?”
Tan Hee-san came back with a hoe.
“I'm worried about the nutrients in the soil, but other than that, they seem fine. I have some high fertilizer potion with me, so I'll sell it for 100,000 El each.”
“I can kind of tell by looking at you that this high fertilizer potion is a good thing, but I’m poor, you know. I can’t really buy it, I’m sorry.”
“I see. Then, at least please let me test it out even if it’s just to see its effect.”
After saying that, so that it would look easy to understand, I sprayed a small watermelon with it and it grew into a giant watermelon. When I did that, Tan Hee-san opened his mouth wide and was really surprised.
“...Amazing. If we had that, there would be a revolution in agriculture.”
“I'm just mixing fertilizer with Hi-Potion though.”
This won’t happen just by mixing them together, though.
At the very least you can’t do it without Synthesis Skill.
“You're such a lavish spender I see... I don't think anyone other than you would think of mixing fertilizer with Hi-Potion and would actually do it.”
“Do you want to buy it now?”
“Yeah, but I don't have any money after all. Sorry.”
“Is that so? That's a shame.”
It's true that 100,000 El is expensive if you're poor, but no matter how you look at it, it's a cheat item. If it were me, I'd buy it even if I had to borrow money.
I could see a vision of him using the money from selling crops grown with high fertilizer potion to purchase more, and once his income was stable, he would offer discounts on regular purchases, and eventually rise to become the king of agriculture.
...But wait, that means I have the power to take life and death, so if I were a villainous daughter, wouldn't the slave route be confirmed?
I'm not a particularly evil villainous daughter, so I wouldn't do such a terrible thing, but from the others’ perspective, I suppose there’s no way they’ll do business with an incomprehensible and inexperienced beautiful girl. How rude.
Well, from my perspective, he still missed an opportunity, so I didn't need to get any more involved with him, so I said my greeting and headed home just like that.

I’ve sorted out my food, clothing and shelter, and although this is an undeveloped area, it is inside the city walls, so there is no danger.
Furthermore, since this is a tree house, it is extremely safe unless a wyvern or dragon comes and attacks.
Thunk!
“Haii-!?”
A dragon!? Is it a dragon?? That’s too quick of collecting the flag!
“...Stone?”
Apparently a stone was thrown in. The window was left open. I don't remember going outside, but it might have been the me that left the note that went outside.
When I checked outside, I saw a child in the middle of his next throwing motion, so I grabbed my right wrist with my left hand, made a finger gun with my right hand, took aim, and used the wind magic, Air Gun, to shoot him in the head.
“Gyaa!?”
The evil brat is holding his head in agony. Ha ha ha! Punishment!
By the way, I can do the same thing with the light magic Ray Gun, but I felt bad about leaving burn marks, so I didn’t use it.
“What the hell are you doing?”
“That's my line! You're the one throwing stones, that’s dangerous!”
“S-shut up! Why are these trees growing here when there was nothing here yesterday? And why is there a house on top of those trees? It's crazy!?”
That might be true, but don't throw stones, just don’t.
“It's none of your business, right? Just go home. Or do you want another shot?”
“Do it if you ca-”
“Bang.”
“Gya-!?”
The evil brat is holding his head and writhing around. Hahaha. Punishment!
“Damn you! Remember this.”
“Bang.”
“Gya-!?”
“Isn’t forgetting it better?”
“Damn you...! I’ll definit-!”
“Bang.”
“Hii-!? I-I'm sorrrryyyyyyy!”
Fuh, evil is gone.

After a while, that evil brat came bringing an adult with him. Really, geez.
“Aah, is anyone here?”
“Yes, yes, what is it?”
I thought about pretending to be out, but it might turn troublesome later, so I replied honestly.
“Is it just you? Are your parents there?”
“I don’t have any parents to begin with. It's just me.”
“...I see. Ah, my kid said that you bullied him, is that true?”
“The kid threw a rock at me, so I just counterattacked.”
“No! I only threw it once, but she shot magic many times!”
“That kid, he confessed.”
“That's not what I heard, is it? Did you throw the rock first?”
“No! That girl did it first!”
“Bang.”
“Owch!”
Since we are in front of his parent, I kept the power to about the same level as a finger flick.
How kind of me.
“Every time you lie, I’ll shoot you.”
“I'm sorry. Could you please refrain from using magic too much so he can explain properly?”
“It depends on that kid’s attitude.”
“...Come on, apologize properly.”
“Shit... I'm so sorry!”
“From now on, please use your voice instead of stones.”
The evil brat went home while his father pulled his ears.
I'm glad his parent was decent.

Returning to the city, I go to the Real Estate Guild to check for vacant lands.
“A vacant land? Is it for building a secret base?”
“Something like that.”
When I asked the onee-san at the Real Estate Guild if there was any vacant plot of land that didn't cost anything, she seemed to think it was a child's play, so I went on with it.
“Hmm, would this be a good place?”
She spread out a map of the entire city on the table and used her finger to point while asking whether the area is good.
“A place a little more remote would be better. It's a secret base after all.”
“Fufu. Then, how about this one?”
“Fumu, it's nice and far from other private houses. I'll go with that. Thank you very much. For going along with me.”
“No, I'm glad I was able to kill time too. Hey, can I go see the secret base once it's completed?”
“That’s fine, but it's a secret to everyone, okay?”
“Yes, of course.”
Onee-san may be imagining something as small as a dog house, but I’m planning to build a regular house. I can already imagine Onee-san’s surprised face.
I head to my destination while checking the map of the city that Onee-san gave me.
As I moved away from the city center and approached my destination, the number of private houses gradually decreased, and I finally arrived at an undeveloped area overgrown with weeds.
“Certainly, if it’s here, it won’t cost anything.”
My neighbor is a farmer who can be seen far away. It seems like I don't have to get along with my neighbor.
Not having a water source is inconvenient, but I can liquefy the ground with Alchemy Skill, and turn it into fresh water with my Compounding Skill. In the first place, I can make potions, so I don't think it will be a problem.
If it’s like that, I might as well try digging a well.
For now, let’s build a house.
“Pan! Don! Zumomomo!”
* (T/N: I think that’s a sound of: ‘clap’ ‘hit the ground’ ‘house growing’, yeah, FMA reference.)
I only said the sound effects.
There's no way I can rip that off every time.
The rats have become a trauma and I’m scared of them, so I'm thinking of building my house on top of a tree this time.
I buried four chestnuts evenly spaced in the ground and sprinkled them with a high fertilizer potion.
The four chestnuts visibly grew into trees one after another and continued to grow thicker and bigger, and although I wouldn't say it was as big as a Jomon cedar, it grew into a large chestnut tree.
I jumped up using my Flight Skill, pruned branches that were getting in the way of building a house using various magic skills to raise their level, and used my Alchemy Skill to build a treehouse with a conical roof using wood powder synthesized with aero adamantite.
Finally, I use Synthesis Skill to fuse the house and tree together, and it’s complete.
“Phew, isn’t this a pretty good job?”
Since it's a treehouse, it's not very spacious inside, but I built a kitchen, living room, bathroom, and toilet inside.
A bed in the living room. A sink, a stove, and a dining table with four chairs in the kitchen. Bathtub in the bathroom. A seated toilet bowl in the toilet. I made each of those.
Since the Storage Skill level has increased to 2, the storeroom is no longer necessary.
Of course I don't go to the toilet. Because I'm an idol.
Come to think of it, I'm running out of fertilizer potion, so I'll go make some for a bit.
I lay down on the bed and rested for a while.
I was hungry but too lazy to get up, so, while still lying down, I took out some mushrooms and a long thin branch from storage, stabbed the mushrooms with the branch, made a marble-sized fireball with the tip of my index finger, roasted the mushrooms, and ate them. So yummy─.
When I woke up, it was pitch black, so I went back to sleep and slept soundly until morning.
When I was in the forest, I could hear the sounds of various creatures, but perhaps partly because I was up in the trees, it was very quiet here, it’s a bit lonely.
Breakfast is boiled potatoes and steak, as well as tomatoes, edible weeds, and mushroom salad.
“Munch munch, gobble gobble, gulp.”
This deliciousness without any seasoning. Hooray for Compounding Skill!
I suddenly had an idea.
I wonder what would happen if I synthesized potatoes and meat...
“It's a meat potato. So grotesque.”
It turned into a potato that looked like raw meat. It's gross and more importantly, it looks grotesque. My sanity drops drastically.
For now, should I try and see if I can cultivate it?
Since it would be a pain to go outside each and every time, I decided to make a planter, fill it with soil, and cultivate it inside the house.
When I planted the meat potato in a planter and sprinkled a high fertilizer potion, meat flowers bloomed and meat tomatoes ripened. So gross! It's too disgusting!
When I harvested it and fried it in a frying pan, it smelled good like meat, and when I ate it, it tasted like meat and potatoes.
It's good that I can get protein and carbohydrates at the same time, right?
For now, I think I’ll try synthesizing all the food I have.
“It turned into an object that is difficult to describe...”
A plant that resembles a creature that should never exist in this world, pulsating with black and purple color, is groaning as it is planted in a planter.
Even if I appraise it, it’s still a mystery because it only shows ??? marks.
I think it's edible because it was synthesized from only food but, well, I don't think I'd want to eat it.
“SO GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDD!?”
I ate it since it was a rare chance, and it was really delicious, but it also tasted really bad.
At first, it tasted like I had stuffed my mouth with all the delicious things in this world, and while I was chewing it, a juice that was a condensation of all kinds of filth, including feces, urine, and vomit spread into my mouth and I vomited it up.
“Peh! Peh! What a horrible taste.”
It might be delicious if I lick it without biting into it, but my mouth smells like gutter so I won't eat it anymore. I gargled with a potion.
It would be a waste to just throw it away, so I used my Alchemy Skill to turn it into fine powder, and when I gave it a lick, it had a heavenly taste and flavor, so I decided to make a transparent seasoning container from resin, put it in, and use it as rice seasoning.
When I tried sprinkling it on a meat potato leaf steak and grilling it, it gave off such a delicious aroma that I inadvertently made an ahegao face, just this aroma alone made me want to eat 100 bowls of rice.
It was baked so well that I forgot how hot it was when I bit into it.
“Hyaaaaaaaaaaa!?”
Ah, I died.
*
“...Ha!?”
The next thing I knew, I was lying on the floor.
“So terrifying... terrifyingly delicious...”
It was so delicious that my brain short-circuited and I passed out.
I feel like if I continue to use this seasoning, I will end up no different than a drug addict, so I decided to store it away.
I will only lift the ban once every few years, such as on special days.
“But, just a little more... ahaaaaaaaaaa!”
I fell down and passed out.
*
“...Ha!?”
This is no good!
I burned all the seasonings and leftover steak to charcoal and discarded them.
I hurriedly created a forgetting potion and wrote a note to myself before erasing my memory of the past hour or so.
“Huh? What was that?”
There was a note I didn’t recognize on the desk.
“Synthesizing food is dangerous, you have to be careful in synthesizing two types at a time, and if you synthesize everything at once, you will lose your memory... I see.”
It appears that I have failed.
Let’s be careful when synthesizing food
“So good!”
I made tomato mushrooms and weed meat.
Tomato mushroom is a red glossy mushroom that’s dripping with juice that I synthesized from tomato and mushroom.
Weed meat is a healthy, fiber-rich meat that has no meaty smell.
Both turned out delicious.
I haven't eaten much, but for some reason I'm full, so let’s leave the food synthesis for another day.

After finishing my meal, I was thinking about what to do next when I heard the screams of the animals, so I hurriedly ran out of the house to find a swarm of rats attacking the animal shed.
“!!? Laser rain!!”
I wiped out a group of rats with a rain of light arrows and entered the animal shed and I found that the animals were being melted and eaten by rats.
“Fireball! Fireball!! Fireball!!”
I shot flame bullets at the monster rats and tried to burn them all down, but I missed a few, and the monster rats started to spew fluids from their mouths, and I quickly dodged them, but one of the fluids got to my thigh and it started to let out smoke, and I can see it visibly starting to melt, but my priority now was to kill the monster rats. Or rather, that's all I can think of. I feel like I'm going crazy with anger over the animals being killed.
“Uuugggh!? Aaaaaaah!! Fireball!!”
I defeated the monster rats that I had missed in my frantic shooting, poured a mega potion on the thighs that had melted into mush until I could see the bones, and healed them. I tried to bring the animals back to life with my Resurrection Skill, but even the bones were melted, so there was nothing I could do...
“...Acid Rat”
When I examined the bones of a monster rat using my Appraisal Skill, I found that it was a monster called Acid Rat.
A rat-type monster that preys on its prey by dissolving it in an instant with its highly acidic saliva.
“...Damn it.”
It looks like they dug a hole and came out from the ground.
Is this the result of leaving it as soil in order to make it as natural as possible?
If I made a floor and made even the entrance sturdy, things like this won't happen...
“Haa... painful...”
They’re domestic animals that I bought for food, and I only interact with them for a short time, so I wasn’t really attached to them, but painful things are painful.
“...Let's move out.”
I know very well now that no matter how safe it may seem, you never know when danger may approach.
The forest is dangerous.
Although there are restrictions, human habitation is the safest.
I think I’ll go back to the city, build a house on a vacant land somewhere, and live there.
I packed up the things I needed in storage, dismantled the house, and used my Alchemy Skill to turn it into powder.
I also destroyed the field, buried some acorns in the vacant lot, and used a high fertilizer potion that was synthesized from a Hi-Potion and a fertilizer potion to grow them into trees, returning it to its original state and erasing all traces that I had lived there.
“That’s done.”
I did this because I thought it was my fault that I had changed the forest's ecosystem and was attacked by the rats.
At the end, I put my hands together and pray for the animals' afterlife.
“Next time please enter my stomach deliciously.”
I teleported to the iron hut on the plains, checked the surroundings, then went outside and returned to the city.

The next thing I knew, it was the next morning.
I think I fell asleep naked yesterday, so that’s why my body was cold.
“I’ll go take a bath...”
After quickly taking a bath, I’ll have breakfast in a refreshing mood.
I put the Flame Skill’s fireball in the stove (just the fireball without adding any wood as it will cause smoke), adjust the heat, and when the water in the pot comes to a boil, add potatoes and boil them.
Everyday life is a great way to level up my Skills.
I sprinkle salt on the potatoes that have been boiled. Chomp chomp, munch munch.
Un, I know now that wild potatoes don't taste good.
After I finish eating, I think I’ll use my Synthesis Skill to create the ultimate delicious potato.
I tore the mushrooms to pieces by hand and sautéed them in a frying pan.
It's delicious without any seasoning. Yum, yum, yum.
Mushrooms are small, so I’ll need to synthesize them to make them bigger.
After I finished breakfast, I went out to the garden and started my work.
Potatoes are poisonous, so I used Compounding skill to remove the poison and synthesized them with Synthesis skill. And now, whether it was their buds or leaves, or even their seed, I can eat them like tomatoes.
Rather than just like tomatoes, they were basically tomatoes. They were too sour to eat as they are, but I can eat them one way or the other with my Compounding Skill.
When I analyzed the names of their breed, they were displayed as three varieties: Potato Tomato, Potatoma, and Tomatato. Well, once harvested, tomatoes are still tomatoes, and potatoes are still potatoes though.
I can harvest them immediately by spraying Hi-Potion, so it's nice to see the results of selective breeding right away.
I used Synthesis Skill to make mushrooms bigger, and then used Alchemy Skill to liquify them, and sprayed them on logs, and then sprayed Hi-Potion on top of them, and gigantic ghost mushrooms grew one after another.
Ghost shiitake, ghost mushroom, ghost shimeji.
I synthesized those three and created a new species called Shimashitake, so I grilled it with a mini fireball lit on my fingertips and tried eating it.
“So goooooood!!”
This mushroom has the most delicious taste and flavor!
I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen if all edible mushrooms are synthesized.
Next is meat!
“Female calves, piglets, chickens, also goats and sheep.”
“If you put them in an item box, they'll die quickly, so be careful, okay?”
“I understand.”
Currently, I'm at the animal market in the city.
Hunting? No way. Too bothersome.
Besides, it has many problems such as butchery, dissection, and parasites.
Compounding Skill can remove poison, but not living things.
I can liquefy them with Alchemy Skill, but doing it one by one is just too hard.
I teleported back to my home garden and released the animals from Storage.
They seemed to be a little low on energy, but the Hi-Potion made them energetic quickly.
As expected, was it because there was no air in the item box or storage that they became weak?
I don't want my fields to be destroyed, so I build an animal shed next to my house using aero adamantite, an alloy of aeronium and adamantite, and I take my animals there and close it off with a fence.
Even if a meteorite hits this shed, it will probably be safe.
I will also synthesize adamantite into the walls of my home later.
Next, I synthesized the grass seeds I bought at the market, made them into nutritious grass seeds, sowed them in the field, sprayed them with Hi-Potion mist to make them grow, and harvested them with a sickle made from aero adamantite.
A sickle made only from adamantite is heavy, but a sickle made from aero adamantite is super light, making it easier to work with.
I spread a large amount of cut grass in the shed and in the feed tray, and it’s complete.
I make a brush and brush the animals while I’m at it.
After all, since I’m going to do this anyway, I want the animals to become attached to me.
I use Alchemy Skill to turn their excrement into powder, solidify it, and process it into a fertilizer potion.
I use the fertilizer potions to grow even better crops by pouring them into my fields.
It's a perfect cycle.
By the way, I don't defecate. Because I'm an idol.
There are some fertilizer potions in my Storage, but it must be just my imagination.
The toilet in my home is for guests. I don't use it, you know. Because I'm an idol.
When I need to take animals’ meat, I’ll put them to sleep with an anesthetic potion before I tear them off.
After I take them, I’ll heal them with a mega potion, so I can eat all the meat I want almost indefinitely.
Whether or not I can tear them off depends on my mental strength though.
After I finished all my work, it was time for lunch.
“The stunning steak! Munch munch much.”
This is meat I bought at the market.
Until the animals grow up, I’ll buy them at the market.
Even children can take the meat, but they need to be mentally prepared to tear them off.

“I didn't really understand that effect. Should I store it away for now?”
I take the ring off and place it in the storage room, because placing it in my Storage space will take up space.
I thought the exact opposite skill would neutralize it, but nothing happened. Too bad.
Next, let's make a stone lighter.
Using Synthesis Skill, I created fairly light stones, somewhat light stones, light stones, too light stones, faint stones, feather-light stones, almost air stones, and when I created air stone after that, I appraised it.
“Aeronium. A metal that seems like solidified air.”
It looks almost transparent, and when I touch it, it takes away the moisture from my hands.
When I squeeze it, it feels fluffy and elastic, but it feels different from jelly or cotton, which is interesting.
As for what it's used for, maybe to remove moisture or something?
It looks like it can also be used as a heat insulator, so let's synthesize it into the wall. It seems like it can prevent mold.
Since I was concentrating on my work, I must have gotten hungry before I knew it.
The bug in my stomach made a loud noise.
“...I don’t have any food.”
For now, I'll go out to the garden and use my Appraisal Skill to look for something edible.
“Edible grass, edible flower, edible bush, raspberry, red berry, acorn, chestnut, edible mushroom, potato, larva, grasshopper, frog, fish, shellfish, crab, mouse, squirrel, bird.”
Thanks to the increase in my Appraisal Skill level, it's now easier to understand than before.
For now, I think I'll eat the potatoes, fish, and mushrooms.
Digging the soil might damage the potatoes, so I used Alchemy Skill’s liquefy to turn the area around the potatoes into mud before collecting them. Potato, get!
The edible mushrooms that I could tell by their appearance are shiitake mushrooms, brown mushrooms, and shimeji mushrooms, but the other mushrooms are poisonous no matter how you look at them. Purple, red, and pink are scary.
When I tried examining them with the appraisal ring, I found a mushroom that has an effect that might be able to grow a man’s mushroom!
Immediately, I collect only the umbrella part, apply a Hi-Potion to recover and mass-produce it, use Synthesis Skill to increase their potency, and then use Compounding Skill to remove their poison.
“It's done! Metamo mushroom!”
A mushroom that changes your body when you eat it.
I don't know what kind of change it’ll be, but it's not a problem because I will synthesize it into myself and obtain it as a skill.
As usual, I use Alchemy Skill to liquefy it and then synthesize it into my body.
“Body Modification Skill, get!”
It's level 1, but it looks like I can grow it!
“Grow! Grow! Grow!”
When I prayed strongly in my mind, my crotch became hot, and it’s there, gradually growing in size, giving me a nostalgic feeling.
“Awesome! I have both! Eddddddo!”
Edo is the former name of Tokyo, and is the city where the Edo shogunate was located from 1??? to 18??.
I don't really remember the year because I didn't study seriously.
For now, I tried to think of something else to calm myself down, but it was impossible.
Let's go home and start right away, let's do that.
“Our adventure has only just begun!!”
Thank you for reading.
Please look forward to Lotorl-sensei's next work.
Reincarnated Idol ~Lotorl ☆ Alchemist~ will start serialization from the next issue!! (Lie)

I went back to my home with Teleport, put my daily necessities from Storage into the kitchen and bathroom, and threw myself down on my bed.
Now that I've met all my needs, including food, clothing, and shelter, I'm thinking about what to do next.
“Should I try going on a little adventure? I do want to make out with a girl. I also want to eat lots of delicious food. Traveling around the world... is too troublesome. Maybe I can just keep being a hikikomori like this...”
It wouldn't be so bad to spend the rest of my life lazing around in bed, huh?
But I really don't want to be fat.
Even if I'm skinny now, if I do nothing but eat and sleep, I'll definitely become fat. I have to exercise.
The protagonists of the isekai stories I saw in my previous life each had their own adventures as they aim for big goals, but in this world where I was reincarnated, there are no demon lords or evil gods.
There are no evil masterminds or my parents' enemies, in the first place, I have no parents at all.
There are people I want to take revenge on (the bullies at the orphanage), but I won't go there to meet them.
I only wanted to beat them up if I happened to see them on the street. I don't hate them so much that I want to kill them.
It seems like dragons exist, but I only want to see them if they were kept in a zoo, so I wouldn't risk going to see one.
Looking for goals, looking for dreams for the future, looking for what I really want to do, how do I do that?
Wealth. Fame. Power. Do I want to obtain everything in this world?
No. I don't want that much.
* (T/N: One Piece reference.)
Do I want to be happy?
I want to.
What is happiness?
A warm meal, a warm bath, a warm bed.
...I've come to feel that being a hikikomori is the happiest thing ever.
I think I'll try being one for a while.
*
“Synthesizing weed with weed... I got a nice weed, huh?”
What do I do when I’m being a hikikomori? Of course it’s researching my Skills.
I feel like I can play for 100 years with just my Synthesis Skill after all.
“Synthesizing nice weed with nice weed... it becomes a really nice weed. Fumu fumu.”
Since it came to this, I decided to train my Appraisal Skill thoroughly from level 1.
I have as much time as I like. I think I will work hard to raise its level patiently.
“Synthesizing a really nice weed with a really nice weed... a very nice weed. Hohou.”
When I took a look at it with my appraisal sunglasses, it turned out that the weed was actually a medicinal herb that could improve my health.
“Synthesizing very nice weed with very nice weed... A greatly nice weed. Synthesizing greatly nice weed with greatly nice weed... An extremely nice weed. Synthesizing extremely nice weed with extremely nice weed... An exceedingly good weed. Synthesizing exceedingly good weed with exceedingly good weed... the supreme weed. Synthesizing supreme weed with supreme weed... the supreme weed. Hm?”
When I looked at the supreme weed with appraisal sunglasses, it was displayed as the leaf of the world tree.
“Leaf of World Tree... it revives the dead and cures all diseases, is it? That's dangerous...”
I liquify the leaf of World Tree with Alchemy Skill and synthesize it into myself.
I got Resurrection Skill and Cure-All Healing Skill. Dangerous!
The Resurrection Skill can be used on anyone other than myself as long as they have not turned into a skeleton, and the Cure-All Healing Skill can be used even on myself, it seems to be able to cure any illness.
Of course from level 1.
The cost of using a perfected Skill is terrifying after all.
At level 1, there seems to be a restriction that it can only be used immediately after death or until the third day after the onset of illness, but it can be used at no risk, so there is no problem.
“Synthesis Skill is dangerous! Let’s do more!”
If I raise my Synthesis Skill level even further, I might be able to create something even greater than the leaf of World Tree.
Even if I create something like that, I won’t be able to use it, but it can satisfy my intellectual curiosity.
“Next, synthesizing stone with stone... hard stone. Synthesizing hard stones, too hard stone. Synthesizing too hard stones. Iron stones. Synthesizing iron stones. Steel stones. Synthesizing steel stones. Unbreakable stone. Synthesizing unbreakable stones. Indestructible stone. Synthesizing indestructible stones. Stone of ultimate hardness. Synthesizing stones of ultimate hardness. Stone of ultimate hardness. Fumu.”
When I examined it with appraisal sunglasses, it was displayed as adamantite.
I could have used this to make a sword or armor, but since I have no plan on fighting monsters, I used Alchemy Skill and made it into an all-purpose knife. This will make my cooking progress.
“I ended up obtaining legendary items while staying at home... I'm terrified, no I’m terrifying...!”
That said, I’m bored, so I'll keep making them though.
“This time, should I synthesize in a bad direction?”
I use Compounding Skill on weeds to leave only the ingredients that are harmful to the body, and synthesize them in the same way as before, weed that is seems bad for the body, weed that is bad for the body, weed that is poisonous to the body, poisonous weed, extremely poisonous weed, and weed that results in death, instant death weed, death god weed, and already I have created something dangerous that you should refrain from touching with your bare hands.
When I examined it with my appraisal sunglasses, it was displayed as “Death.” Truly the god of death.
It seems that any living thing that eats it instantly dies. Scary.
It'd be dangerous if I accidentally ate it, so I used my Alchemy Skill and synthesized it into a ring.
Ring of death. If you equip it, you will die. Hmm, this is no good.
“If you equip it, you will die... die? I see! Resurrection of the dead!”
I made a leaf of the world tree and synthesized its effect of resurrecting the dead into the ring.
“Ring of life and death. The effect cannot be appraised...”
Since I couldn't appraise it with my Appraisal level 20 sunglasses, I thought it would be a waste to just throw away the mastered appraisal skill that I had, so I synthesized it into a ring and kept it, so I equipped that and appraised it again.
“The effect is... the superposition of life and death. The person who equipped it will no longer be observed by the world.”
I don't know what it means, but I think it's probably going to turn me into the state of a certain cat somewhere.
Let's try equipping it a bit.

“Shishido potion, the skill acquisition, part of memory, and the follower thing are all the same, huh?”
I used Compounding Skill to remove unnecessary things such as other people's memories, lowered the Swordsmanship Skill and Flame Skill to level 1, and synthesized them into me.
When I tried swinging a wood as a test, I heard a whistling sound of air being cut. Looks like the Swordsmanship Skill is working as expected. As for the time when I use it, I guess when I’m cooking?
As for the Flame Skill, it seems to allow me to envelop a weapon in flames or release flame bullets. With this, it should be easier to start a fire.
Next, I use Alchemy Skill to liquefy my magic bag and synthesize it into myself.
I was able to obtain Storage Skill level 1.
Let's see how much I can fit in.
“For wood, is 50 pieces the limit? And for potions, this one is also 50 pieces, huh?”
As a result of testing various things, I can put up to 50 types of items into it. And up to 50 individual items of the same type.
This is perfectly nice for level 1.
Once it becomes level 10, it seems I won't have any trouble carrying my luggage.
Considering that a magic bag with Storage was sold for 2 million El, using the Storage Skill inside the city would be strange and attract attention, so I think I’ll pretend to put things into a pocket on the stomach part of my jacket. Since it's just a normal pocket, it won't hurt or itch even if it gets stolen.
Yes, it's an homage to the cat girl android from the future.
In the end, Mijika-kun didn't choose Sawagi-chan and ended up together with Yenekon, and then during the middle school, Sawagi-chan came from the future and their love triangle intensified, after which, the author went on a long hiatus, it's been 10 years since then. Resuming the series is hopeless.
* (T/N: I don’t know what parody it is. I guess it could be Doraemon, ‘sawagi’ means ‘noisy’ while ‘shizuka’ means ‘quiet’. I don’t know about ‘mijika’ though, it means ‘short’, but ‘nobita’ doesn’t mean ‘long’, right? Wait, ‘nobiru’ means ‘to stretch’, so it could be. Btw, ‘yenekon’ means ‘house cat’ written as ‘ie neko n’.)
“For now, let's make some furniture.”
Using wood powder, I made tables and chairs, spread it thinly to make curtains, built a water tank outside, connected a water pipe to the kitchen, and installed a faucet.
I stuck a wood powder filter on top of the water tank so that it will only store rainwater. Bird droppings getting in there is not good for me mentally.
It'll be unnecessary once I get water-type Skill, but leaving it there is not a problem, so I'll leave it as is.
The sun was starting to set, so I teleported to the hut on the plains, checked through the air vents to make sure there were no people around, and then went outside.
All that's left to do is return to the city.
*
“Ah, you came back properly today! Welcome back!”
“I’m back!”
I'll be secretly moving out tomorrow, so I'm going to pamper Onee-san to my heart's content today.
I’ll be the one to make dinner today, and I made fried chicken and mashed potatoes for her.
“...So good. So delicious...! So food can be this delicious...”
“Onee-san’s cooking is neither delicious nor bad after all.”
“Uuu, sorry...”
At night, I invited her to sleep with me.
“I'm so excited I can't seem to sleep!”
“You're breathing too hard. There, there, good girl, good girl. Slee─p, slee─p, wi─th my─ lullaby─.”
“Geez, don't I look like the child here! But, somehow, I'm starting, to feel, slee... zzZ”
I feel like I've awakened my maternal instincts. Isn’t this a mama look instead of a baby look?
Onee-san was sleeping soundly and happily, so I also enjoyed her breasts to the fullest and went to sleep. If I suck on it a little bit, would I be found out?
The instant I thought that, Onee-san let out a long breath, so I stopped.
Let’s stop with the sexual harassment.
* (T/N: バブみ - babumi - feelings of motherhood, google translated it to ‘baby look’, basically meant as ‘look at a baby’, I think. Change the ‘babu’ part to ‘mama’ to get ‘mama look’.)
*
It's morning. Good morning. Onee-san is still asleep.
I gently get up so that I don’t wake her up and start tidying up my room.
I move my clothes, potions, and the like to the subspace inside the Storage, and get the room temperature storage as well while I’m at it. The payment will be my panties.
I put all my personal belongings in the room into Storage, changed my panties, placed the one I took off in front of Onee-san’s face, and said goodbye.
────
(T/N: ‘room temperature storage’? How do you get it? Can you even put it inside your ‘Storage’? I figure it’s either my mistake or the author’s mistake, please don’t think too much of this and move on.)

As I pack my things into my backpack, I feel like Onee-san will find out that I'm moving, so I’ll temporarily head to the market.
I’ll purchase a magic bag to obtain an item box, storage, or inventory Skill before secretly moving.
It seems like it’ll cost a lot of money, so first, let's take 50 bottles of Hi-Potion to the Pharmacist Guild.
*
“Aah! Lotorl-chan! I haven't seen you lately, so I was worried!”
“I’d like to sell 50 bottles of Hi-Potion, please.”
“50!?
I line up the Hi-Potions on the counter.
The potion bottle is shaped like a long, thin test tube, so I have to support them with my hand so that I don't drop them.
“To think you have this much... And they're all real... Lotorl-chan, who are...?”
“How much is it today?”
“Eh, uummm, it’s 5 million El, but.”
“To the card.”
“...Yes.”
If you say it in a no-nonsense attitude, they won't ask too many questions.
Now that I have the funds, let’s go to the market to buy a magic bag!
“Level 3, this one is 5, this is Storage... so expensive. Inventory is, none huh...”
I examine the bags' abilities closely with appraisal sunglasses.
The magic bag with Storage ability costs 2 million El, so if I were to buy it here it would be too noticeable, so let’s go to the Adventurer's Guild for now.
“Oh, Lotorl-chan. How was Hanging Garden?”
“It was fun. Is Shishido-san here today?”
“I think he'll be back soon. Come here and tell me how it was.”
The usual onii-sans and onee-sans were having fun eating at the Adventurer's Guild's bar.
Let's enjoy the conversation until Shishido-san returns.
“Here, sit here.”
An onee-san wearing light equipment that was slightly revealing patted an empty seat, so I sat there.
“Want to eat something? Like this, this is delicious, you know?”
“That's mine! Well, I guess it’s fine.”
“Then, I won’t hold back, Itadakimasu.”
This salty-sweet boiled meat on the bones is yum-yum. Munch munch munch.
“So, how was it?”
“Gulp, I flew in the sky.”
“You flew, huh? Ha ha ha, that's a good one.”
“Did you meet any good men or anything?”
“I'm not interested in men, so.”
“Eh, umm, I guess so. You won’t be, at that age. You have a mature atmosphere, so I thought you could talk about that kind of thing.”
“I just like women. I can talk about things like that.”
“I-I see...?”
“People like Onee-san, they feel mature, so they’re to my liking.”
“M-me?”
I've always liked the healer onee-san who wears whitish clothes and looks neat and clean since my previous life.
“Hohou. Hey, how about me?”
“Nice. But I prefer lighter makeup.”
“Bufu-! Ah!? What the hell are you doing!?”
An effeminate onii-san who looks like he is a scout with black hair who is usually seen as a bullied character, was hit on the head by an onee-san who tends to dress lightly.
“Because you’re about to laugh!”
“You move too fast!”
“What!?”
“What!?”
“If you're going to have a lovers' quarrel, Do it somewhere else.”
““Ha-!?””
“You guys are always in sync.”
While we were having a fun conversation, Shishido-san came back.
“You guys sure are having fun. Let me join in.”
“Ou, Shishido. Just now, Ojou-chan was... wait, you, that arm...”
“Shishido... you screwed up, huh.”
When I turned around and looked at Shishido-san, I noticed that the sleeve on his right arm was fluttering.
“It got eaten by a dragon for a bit. Why, I had the wound closed by someone with good Recovery Skill, so there's no problem.”
“Shishido-san...”
What a serious atmosphere. This kind of atmosphere can only become comedy to me.
“Tettere─, mega potion.”
I take out the mega potion from my backpack and hand it to Shishido-san.
“Mega? What?”
“Don’t mind it, try drinking it.”
“S-sure.”
After swallowing it in one gulp, oh my, how strange, his missing arm suddenly started to grow back.
“This is!? How did you-!?”
“Ojou-chan, who the heck are you?”
“It's a secret. And this is not free either.”
I examine Shishido-san with the Appraisal Skill.
Swordsmanship Skill level 37, Flame Skill level 33, Float Skill level 5, Hero Skill. What’s Hero Skill? Well, it’s not necessary for me though.
Let's take Swordsmanship and Flame.
“Shishido-san, please come with me to the bathroom for a moment.”
“Eh? W-well, fine?”
While everyone was stunned, I went into the bathroom with Shishido-san.
“Um, what are you going to do?”
“I’m just going to take your little finger for a bit.”
“Little finger?”
I use Potion Creation Skill to turn Shishido's right little finger into Shishido potion.
“Higuuuuuh!?”
When Shishido-san's little finger that I had grabbed turned into Shishido Potion, I poured Mega Potion on it and immediately cured it.
“W-what’s the meaning of this!?”
“It's the compensation. Please think of it like that.”
“Compensation... I don't really get it, anyway, you saved me. Thank you.”
“Also, there is a magic bag that I want, so let’s go buy it together after this.”
“If it's not too expensive... the penalty for the dragon subjugation is, you know.”
“It's okay. Please take out your card.”
“Card? Here.”
I transfer money from my card to Shishido-san's card.
Gold coins that look like 3D images are flowing out like a waterfall from card to card.
“I’ve transferred 2 million El, so please use it to buy me the bag I want.”
“I won't ask you who you are.”
“Shishido-san was exactly what I expected from a lolicon comrade.”
“...I'm not a lolicon. Wait, comrade!? Are you one too!?”
“You have blown your secrets. Take a look at your pants.”
“Oh... wait, that's not true! I'm not a lolicoooooonnnnn!!"
When we came out of the bathroom, Shishido-san had turned into a bed of nails.
* (T/N: bed of nails is usually a metaphor for ‘can not stand’. I got it from a quick googling, don’t know if it’s correct.)
“...I'm not, a lolicon...”
“Everyone. Unless you want to look like Shishido-san, please keep what happened here a secret.”
So, shall we go buy a magic bag?
“Thank you very much!”
The clerk was so cheerful.
“Here, this is fine, right?”
“Thank you very much. You’ve saved me.”
“No, me too, really, thank you. Retiring just like that would be like hell on earth.”
With this, I can get the Storage Skill now.
Also, with the Shishido potion, I can get Swordsmanship and Flame. Lucky.
I parted ways with Shishido-san on the spot, went into a back alley, and teleported back to my house.

“I woke up. Good morning!”
Yesterday I forgot to build a wall around my house to prevent monsters from entering, so I'm going to start building it right away.
First, I’ll go outside and build walls with blind fence structure surrounding my house.
I clap my hands together and hit the ground with a bang, and a wall slowly rises up from the ground.
It's cool no matter how many times I do it.
...I forgot to create an exit.
I have Teleportation, so it's not a problem, but let's create an exit in case of an emergency.
I made the exit into a sliding door, so almost no one in this world would be able to open it. I don't think there are many people who would come this far though.
Now that the walls are complete, I'm going to stock up on necessities like shampoo.
I use wood and flowers to make soap with Alchemy Skill. It smells good.
And make shampoo using soap and flowers. I mix in fragrant components of flowers using Compounding Skill.
I'd like to try making lotion someday.
A part of me sees my own self as my avatar, so I will spare no effort to love myself to the fullest.
Is this the feeling of the mind of a 30-year-old Hiki-NEET looking at me from a bird's-eye view?
In online games too, people basically played as women and admired their underwear.
Thinking about admiring underwear made me come up with an idea. Let's make a full-length mirror.
If I combine resin and silver with Synthesis and Alchemy Skills, I can create a mirror in no time. The amber framed full-length mirror is complete.
...I should have made it at home. This is plain heavy.
*
“Aah... how cute I am. Nchuu. I got my first kiss, okay?... Uhehe.”
I won’t show this to others. Anyone who sees this will be killed.
I realize that I'm doing the most disgusting thing, but I can't help it because I'm too cute.
No matter what I myself do to myself, I will forgive myself, so there’s no problem.
“I’m still skinny, I see. I need to gain more weight.”
Physical examination while completely naked. Also sensitivity examination while I’m at it. ...As expected, it’s still no good.
If it’s still no good after I turn 13, I'll make a potion to lower my sensitivity.
It would be nice if I could get a skill that can change the human body by then.
I was about to get dressed when I remembered something.
Let’s make clothes with honeycomb wood powder.
I don't have any design sense so I will be making a jersey.
“Smooth, fluffy, light and durable. It's the best.”
Since I can easily make clothes with Alchemy Skill, let's make several panties as well.
*
“Now then, it’s about time I go back to the city.”
I put my ring, pills, etc. in the storage room, organize the contents of my backpack, and return to the city via short-distance teleportation.
After passing through the forest, I’ll build a thick iron hut with Alchemy Skill on the plain near the city. It won’t have any doors.
I use my Alchemy Skill to build a hut and set up a signboard in front of it, saying, ‘under construction’.
Once I teleport inside and open air holes on all four sides and on the ceiling, it’s complete.
From now on, if I teleport into this, returning to the city will be easy-peasy.
I made the surface look like wood grain for camouflage, installed a fake door, and drew children's doodles on the walls, giving the impression that this is a building built by some parent and child for fun.
Perfect job done. Satisfied.
Now let's go back to the city.
“Lotorl-chaaaaaaaaaaan!!”
“Gefu-!?”
When I returned to the Item Creation Guild, Onee-san hugged me. It's soft.
“Where have you been?! I was so worried!”
“Is that so? I’m sorry about that. Well then, I’m going back to my room.”
“So cold!?”
I peel Onee-san off me and head to my room to get my things.
“The potions, are here. The clothes too, are here. The panties... were they moved a little...?”
I noticed the presence of Onee-san outside the room, so I questioned her and she immediately confessed.
“You know, you have to wash your underwear regularly!”
“Is that so? I guess it can't be helped then. I'll give these panties to Onee-san as a present.”
“Really!?”
I thought she would get noisy if I told her I was moving, so I gave her a present as a secret moving commemoration.
Even though it's my fault, to think she turned into this much of a pervert... what a shame.

While changing places, I might as well level up my Teleportation Skill.
Currently, my Teleportation Skill is Level 5. Since it was an old fragment, the teleportation effect must have deteriorated.
The gate's teleportation effect was level 90, so it seems like it will no longer be usable at some point. Is there anyone who can do maintenance on it?
While I was doing short distance teleportation for practice, I arrived at a riverside that looked nice, so I decided to make this my campsite!
I feel like this is quite deep inside, but if I use Alchemy Skill to wall off the area, monsters and wolves won't be scary.
At my current alchemy level, I can build as many huts as I want.
Before, I couldn't imagine it at all, but now I think I can build even a slightly complicated house. Now I don't have to save money to buy my own house.
Let’s immediately get to cutting down trees.
“Wind Cutter!”
A sharp wind in the shape of a fan ripped the bark off a tree. I guess this is how it is since its level 1.
“Laser Cutter!”
A red ray of light burned the surface of a tree. My Light Magic is also level 1, so it's something like this.
After repeating this several times and raising their level, I was able to generate enough power on the level of cutting down a tree with an ax, so with this, I can make good progress.
Well, I have a brutal skill that turns anything I touch into a potion, so I was able to cut down the trees in no time. ...It's not like I got tired of the monotonous leveling process, okay?
Or rather, this Potion Creation Skill, it’d be pretty dangerous if used on the human body.
When I imagined it being used against a person, it was too gory. Oeeh.
*
I deliberately prepared a mega potion, touched the little finger of my left hand with my right hand, and then, I tried using my Potion Creation Skill.
“Ei! IZ HUUUUUUUUUUUUWZ!?”
Owowowowowithurtsithurtsithurtsithurtsithurtsithurtsithurts!
I immediately poured the mega potion and my missing little finger started to grow back. Gross.
“Haa... haa... never again!”
I forgot how sensitive a child's sense of pain is.
Next time I do it, let’s make a numbing potion first.
I learned the hard way even if I say so myself.... Is it appropriate to use ‘before the root of the tongue dries’ at a time like this?
* (T/N: it means ‘Not long after one finished speaking’. It is often used to immediately say or do something that is contrary to the previous statement.)
I examine the finished potion in detail using my appraisal skill.
“Lotorl's Blood Potion. It has my name on it... By using this potion, you can acquire the skills that Lotorl had. You will become immortal. You can obtain a part of Lotorl’s memories. You will become Lotorl’s follower. Hmm, I'm not a vampire, you know.”
Using Compounding Skill to remove effects other than the one to obtain my skill would be a waste, so I synthesized each into a ring.
A ring that allows you to use the Skills of Compounding, Synthesis, Alchemy, Appraisal, Potion Creation, Flight, Wind Magic, Light Magic, Magic Power Recovery, and Teleportation. Since the amount of potion is small, everything deteriorates and they are all level 1.
Ring of Immortality, you can become immortal only while you are equipped with it.
Ring of My Memory, when equipped, allows you to remember a part of my memories.
Ring of Become My Follower. When equipped, you can become my follower. When you are my follower, it seems that you will do anything and everything I say. Is it a hypnotic brainwashing thing?
Now then, let's use my Alchemy Skill and build a two-story house made of reinforced concrete in the area I had reclaimed.
I clap my hands, slap the ground with both of my hands, and activate my Alchemy Skill.
‘Zumomomo’ my house slowly rose up from the ground.
This is a homage! I wanted to try it at least once! And it was really easy to imagine! Forgive me!
When I entered the house, perhaps because there was no furniture or anything, it felt empty.
On the first floor there is a kitchen, living room, bathroom, toilet, and storage room.
I built a bedroom and a laboratory on the second floor.
Or rather, the soles of my feet are cold without slippers.
Should I put down a mat, or maybe something else...
I wish I had a woodworking skill or something at times like this.
Hm, no, wait?
Alchemy Skill can be used to turn wood into fine powder and then harden it, so let's use that to make wooden flooring.
No, no, wooden flooring is cold, so if I use planks with a fine honeycomb structure, it should be warm like with cardboard.
Should I try making one?
“Tettere tettete─ tete─. Honeycomb wood powder plank”
It's more fluffy than I expected. Maybe it feels similar to a bundle of tissues?
It’d be a pain to spread this over the whole floor, so I turned the felled wood into wood powder, put it in a bucket made with the Alchemy Skill, scattered it on the floor, and used the Alchemy Skill to spread it all at once.
Finished! It feels great and fluffy under my foot.
Let’s do the same for the second floor’s floor.
I also made the bed from wood powder, and the bed cover and pillows were also made in the same way.
It seems more comfortable than the futon in my previous life.
It might be good to also make clothes from wood powder.
Next, I went to the bathroom and made a rectangular bathtub by just solidifying wood powder.
If it has a honeycomb structure, it feels like the hot water will leak out.
With my current Alchemy level, it would be impossible to create a honeycomb structure that doesn’t allow water to leak out.
Since there is a large amount of wood, I fill the bathtub with hot water that is wood potions. The ingredients are the tree that I made into potions as is. This feels like a forest-scented hot spring made with only natural resources.
...The scent seems to be a little too strong, so let’s dilute it with river water.
Since I have Compounding Skill, I didn't make a drain at the bottom of the bathtub.
If I remove impurities with Compounding Skill, I can reuse the hot water as many times as I like. It won’t be dirty, okay?
The wood potion hot water has filled the bathtub, so I use Light Magic Skill to activate Light Heat and sink a ball of light into the bathtub to warm up the water.
The level of my Light Magic Skill is low, so it may take a while, but let’s think of it as raising its level and do my best.
“Un, it's just the right temperature.”
Now that I’ve gotten a good temperature, I get in the bathtub.
“Aaah... I'm coming back to life!”
I also want to shampoo, so I'll make it later.
Now that my Alchemy Skill level has increased, it seems like I can easily make soap without a potion kit, so let’s make some while I’m at it.
In any case, the bath felt good, so I soaked in the tub until I’m satisfied.
I've done too many things today and I'm really sleepy, so I'll go back to the city tomorrow.
The bed was so comfortable that it felt like I was lying on a cloud. I can't sleep on a regular bed anymore... zzZ.

I've gotten quite off track, so let's go back to my original purpose and look for an item that will allow me to learn magic.
At Appraisal level 20, it seems that the details are omitted from the display, so I still ended up mass producing potions.
“Floating potion, wind attribute raising potion, magic recovery potion, weathering potion, corrosion potion, hmm, light potion? uhhh, it makes your body glow when you drink it, right? ...Just from the looks of it, it looks like it could turn you into a clubber.”
I ended up imagining a hellish scene where a cheery person being who they are forces a gloomy person to drink this and says, “Otaku-kun, you're really shining right now!” Stop it!
That’s enough of my delusional paranoia, I gathered the potions that seem good, and used Compounding, Synthesis, and Alchemy to increase their potency.
*
“Ooh, I’m floating.”
I increased its potency with Synthesis Skill, removed its impurities with Compounding Skill, and changed its potency with Alchemy Skill. Finally, I synthesized it into my body.
Currently, I have acquired Flight Skill, Wind Magic Skills, Light Magic Skill, and Magic Power Recovery Skill.
Weathering and Corrosion Skills are scary, so I synthesized it into an amber ring made of resin.
Of course, if I acquire the perfected Skills easily, I will go through a bitter experience, so each one is level 1. I synthesized the mastered skills into a ring. I plan to use them in times of crisis.
For Appraisal Skill, I’ll use it when I discover something unknown, like a UFO, so I decided to keep it as is. It's a fantasy world after all, you never know what's going to happen.
By the way, my current levels of Compounding, Synthesis, and Alchemy Skills are 30, 30, and 35.
I have achieved my objective, so it's about time I go home.
But, paying the gate tolls everytime I go back and forth over and over again is a waste, so I think I’ll take everything I can get from the Hanging Garden and turn it into a potion, powder, or pill, and take it home with me.
My backpack became insanely heavy, but I synthesized a pill with a floating effect with my backpack and created a floating backpack. With this, I can carry it without any difficulty.
In order to get down to the ground, I didn't use my own Flying Skill, but instead used the floating skill of the uncle who brought me there in the first place. Because I don't want to waste the round trip cost.
...My frugal nature remains the same in both my previous life and this one.
All that’s left after that was just to go home, so I returned to the Gate, when I suddenly thought of something.
Isn't the gate also a magic tool...? Was what I thought.
As you’d expect, I wouldn't do something outrageous like turning a part of the Gate into a potion.
It seems to be an old building, so I looked for any fallen debris, and sure enough, there it was.
A fragment of the Gate that has a teleportation effect.
I immediately picked it up, liquefied it, and synthesized it into my body. The reason I liquefy it every time is because if it’s solid, my image of it is that it will stick to the body as is. The image you have when you use a Skill is important.
Anyway, Teleportation Skill, get!
Since I have already paid for the round trip, I show my permit to the person in charge and return normally.
By the way, the used permit will be stamped with a ‘used’ stamp and you can take it home as a souvenir.
I return to the city and head to the suburbs. Let’s move away from human habitation.
I came to a deserted plain to test my Teleportation Skill.
I make a mark on the ground and move about 10 meters away.
“Teleport.”
I felt a floating feeling for a moment, and when I looked at my feet, I saw that I had moved to the marked place. Stark naked.
“...No one's watching, right?”
I looked around, no one was here.
I immediately put my clothes back on and investigated the cause.
“I'm still wearing my ring and sunglasses... hmm. Is it whether it’s equipped or not?”
I don't know if my previous life's game knowledge is accurate, but I'll hypothesize so.
Rings and sunglasses have the image of being equipment, but for clothes or backpacks, I was just wearing or carrying them, or rather, I only recognized them as absolutely normal things, so to start again, I’ll think of them as equipment, and once again, try teleporting.
“Teleport! ...Ooh, I did it!”
As I thought, image is important.
Now I know why the uncle with the floating skill put his hand on my shoulder.
In other words, at that time, I was the property of that uncle, huh...
Stop imagining weird things and let’s try teleporting myself to a place beside the bath that I built in the forest, although it may be a bit scary.
I'm immortal, I won't die so quickly! I can do it, I can do it.
The bath in the forest, the bath in the forest, the ceramic bath that I made in the forest, a place that has a hut that I built near it!
“Teleport! ...Kuh, uuu?”
After a moment of floating feeling, I slowly opened my eyes and saw the hut I had built right in front of me. Dangerous...
I just barely avoided becoming a wall butt. Yay!
I definitely cannot use it in crowded areas. At worst, I'll end up killing someone.
...Could it be, can I synthesize humans as well...?
I did think of such a dangerous idea, but I'm a perceptive brat, so I definitely won’t do it! Maybe between multiple monsters? That, in its own way, has a bit of a mad scientist feel to it. I'm not saying I won't do it.
Let's put all this nonsense aside and take a bath since I’m here.
I forgot to put the lid on it, so it's almost empty.
I see multiple animal footprints here, so it seems like animals drank it.
Since it was a potion bath, the animals must have become healthier as well.
I suppose I can't come here anymore... Let's change places.

I woke up! Good morning! Let's go to the Hanging Garden!
10-year-old kids sure fall asleep quickly. Still a kid, I see. I’ll get an adult body in an instant if I take a growth pill, but since I’m immortal, is there an option for me to not grow like this?
Hmm, I wish I could get a Skill that can modify my body. I want to grow it.
*
“Permit confirmed, have a nice trip”
I bought a travel permit for the Hanging Garden at a kiosk and passed through the huge Gate. This is a different world! That’s what it feels like! I’m so excited!
When I entered a mysterious space that looked like a swirling whirlpool, I felt a floating sensation for a moment, and then the scenery around me changed.
“Oeeeee!”
There were some people vomiting around the gate, it seemed like they were suffering from something called gate sickness. They look pitiful, so let’s try not to look at them too much.
Hanging Gardens of Ars.
I was imagining it to be on top of a mountain, but it's actually a floating island.
I can see people who can use floating-type skills or magic carrying people instead of elevators.
I also want to obtain those skills and fly around freely.
“It's 1,000 El for the round trip. Here I go then.”
I paid the uncle and he put his hand on my shoulder after which, my body started to float up.
Freedom from gravity. The floating feeling. Did the astronauts experience this kind of feeling?
Once I safely arrived at the Hanging Garden, the first thing I noticed was the amazing view from this high up in the sky. There are a few people vomiting here and there, but I don’t mind them.
“It feels like I can see until the end of the world...”
This is not a flat world, it's a proper planet, so I can't see the end though.
We still don't know the name of this star. I will tentatively call it Earth.
Is there anyone in this world who has noticed the existence of planets?
There was also a moon, but it was called “the light of the night” or “night light.”
It can even be seen during the day sometimes, but not as bright as it is at night, so few people seem to notice it.
The sun is called “Tenkou” (Heavenly Light) and is an object of worship.
I also thought that it was God until I remembered the memories of my previous life.
I also had faith in the sun in my previous life, so that part is the same.
Now then, I’ve enjoyed the scenery enough, so let's start leisurely collecting items.
I wanted to use my Appraisal Skill to examine things like stones and weeds growing on the ground, but I couldn't control it well, and the names, effects, and potency of everything in my field of vision burst into my head all at once until I almost threw up. From now on, let’s carefully and meticulously examine each item one by one.
“Floating stone, floating grass, floating flower...”
It is difficult to adjust the Appraisal Skill.
I suppose there's no point in getting a cheat skill if you can't use it properly.
“Guguh, sky grass... the effect is, slightly reduce weight.”
Just making one appraisal took a lot of my mind.
I won’t make any good progress on the work like this, so I took out the appraisal goggles with only one eye left from my backpack, removed the glass part, pick up some branches that had fallen around the area and used Potion Creation Skill to make a resin, but it turned into a sap potion instead.
How careless of me.
The Anything Potion Kit creates things based on the user's Compounding and Alchemy Skills, but it seems that Potion Creation Skill will only create potions. The Item Creation Guild's mysterious technology is truly mysterious.
Advanced techniques such as simultaneous skills activation are currently impossible for me.
However, since I can extract resin from tree sap using Compounding Skill, it’s not a problem for now. It's a bit time consuming though.
I molded the resin extracted using Compounding Skill into a frame of round sunglasses using the Alchemy Skill, split the glass of the appraisal goggles into two, and attached them to the frame of the round sunglasses using Synthesis Skill.
“The appraisal sunglasses are complete.”
I called it sunglasses, but the glass were transparent, so I used Compounding Skill to extract only the black component from the blackish stone that had fallen around the area, and used Synthesis Skill to color the glass, and this time it’s really complete.
A small round black glass in an amber resin frame.
“It’s outstandingly suspicious.”
In a 10-year-old girl wearing cute clothes, these sunglasses must be quite suspicious.
This seems like a good way to avoid troublesome people who try to talk to me casually.
Its comfort level is the same as the Appraisal Goggles, but it’s nice that they are lighter than the goggles.
For everyday use, I processed the resin into a chain so that I can hang the sunglasses around my neck. With this, it’s perfect.

Ignoring the people who were worried about me, I quickly returned to the inn and checked the contents of my backpack to find that my appraisal goggles and Anything Potion Kit were utterly broken. It's the worst. Those damn yankees are unforgivable!
For the time being, I spread them out on the table and thought about trying to fix them, but I totally have no idea how to fix them.
There's nothing I can do about the Anything Potion Kit, but there’s still one eye left on the Appraisal Goggles, so it looks like it'll still be usable.
I suddenly thought of something, but what does it look like when you appraise the appraisal goggles with appraisal goggles? Let's test it.
“I see─.”
When I appraised the fragment of the appraisal goggles, it displayed Appraisal level 20.
For the broken potion kit, it displayed Potion Creation.
Since there was no level indicator, I guess you can really make anything into a potion.
“...Eureka!”
It feels like a light bulb lit up above my head.
Who cares about that, right now I want to implement the idea that flashed into my mind.
I synthesized every fragment of the appraisal goggles into one, and when the Appraisal level exceeded 99, it displayed only Appraisal. I did it.
Synthesizing this fragment into myself is a little scary, so I liquefied it with my Alchemy Skill and took a lick.
When I checked the skill list on my guild card, the Appraisal skill was displayed for a moment and then quickly disappeared.
It doesn't seem like I will be in a situation where texts are densely packed in my field of vision. Kukuku.
“I’m doing it! I'm going to do it! I'll do it! ...As I thought, it's scary! But I'll do it!”
I encourage myself and synthesize the liquefied pieces of goggles into my own body!
“Hi-!?”
I closed my eyes in fear.
What should I do if I open my eyes and find my view covered in text?
...Now that I think about it, I can remove it with my Compounding Skill, can't I? Hahaha.
When I fearfully opened my eyes, I was relieved to see the same sight as usual.
I look at the card's skill list, and see the Appraisal Skill is displayed.
I kept an eye on it for a while, but this time it seems to have taken hold without disappearing.
It looks like I have obtained the skill, so I'll experiment with how to activate the Appraisal Skill.
As a test, I looked at the object I wanted to appraise and silently prayed, and all the information about it flooded into my brain, and I felt nauseous for a moment, so I immediately stopped. My nose started bleeding. This is dangerous.
Maybe my body won't be able to withstand it unless I steadily raise my skill level?
I think I won’t be able to handle my perfected Appraisal Skill as I am now.
But, I didn't want to give up the Skill I had acquired, so I tried appraising the item while focusing only on its effect and was able to use it without getting nausea or nosebleeds.
It seems to be ok if I figure out how to use it. Thank goodness.
Next is the Potion Creation Skill but, I imagined that as a result of synthesizing it into myself, everything I eat would turn into a potion.
Well, if that happens, I can just remove it with my Compounding Skill though.
Let's just do what I can.
I liquify the fragments of the potion making kit and synthesize them into my own body.
I check the card’s skills list. Skill get!
I take the rice cracker on the table and activate the Potion Creation Skill on top of the cup.
The rice cracker in my hand turned into a potion. In a bottle.
Where did the bottle come from??
“...I feel like I got a glimpse of what the little girl god said to look forward to."
This is undoubtedly a cheat skill! Being able to increase your skills infinitely is not just a cheat, it’ll cause an uproar! Hyahoo!
I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Leaving the Adventurer's Guild, I boarded a horse-drawn carriage and headed to the neighboring city.
Samari-onee-san will probably get worried, but I don't care. There is a thing called neglect play.
As for the one in the Pharmacist Guild, let’s just say I took a day off this time.
“Ojou-chan, are you running an errand?”
“No, I have business in the neighboring city.”
I handed money to the old man driving the carriage and got into the carriage. There were no passengers on board other than me, so it was like I reserved it.
While I was waiting for the carriage to depart, another passenger came on board. He is a boy around 15 years old. He has a cute face, so he might be my taste a little.
“...Please take care of me.”
“Please take care of me.”
His face is red. It seems like he has no resistance to girls.
I won't tease you, you know? Don’t you look pitiful?
I have memories of being a man, so I think I know about those kinds of things.
While being rocked by the carriage, I picked up a stone to kill time and turned it into an ore using my Alchemy Skill.
If you use it without deciding what kind of ore you want to make, it will change randomly and may turn into gold ore, so it's a good way to kill time.
As for the result of changing it about 10 times, it was 8 times for copper and 2 times for silver.
It seems like it’s still a long time away until we reach the neighboring city.
After that too, it changed to bronze and silver repeatedly, and it never shone golden until we reached the neighboring city.
The boy seemed to be curious about the change in the ore and was looking at me restlessly, but he didn't talk to me. I wonder if he's shy?
When I got off the carriage, the setting sun shone into my eyes and it was dazzling.
Let's find an inn before the sun goes down.
I want somewhere with good security this time.
“Enjoy your stay.”
I found an expensive-looking inn, so I stayed there.
The cost of lodging was cheaper than I expected. They don't seem to serve meals, though...
It would have been nice if they had a hot spring or something, but they don’t even have a bath or shower after all.
It seems that the culture of washing one's body has not taken root yet. At best, it’s just wiping it with a towel.
It's still too early to go to bed, so I think I’ll go see the market.
*
I arrived at the market.
It's nice and busy here too, I see. There are many stalls lined up in a row, so let’s take a look around while buying and eating some food.
“One skewer, please.”
“Okay, here you go!”
“Thank you very much.”
I bought a pork horn skewer. It's sweet and salty and very delicious. Munch munch.
“One mixed juice.”
“Here you go.”
The Juice was a mixture of various fruit juices. Sweet and sour and delicious. It’s the system where you return the cup after drinking it.
I’ve thought of a knowledge cheat of processing resin to develop and sell disposable cups.
It’ll be made of natural resin, so it’s also environmentally friendly.
I want a merchant acquaintance who will sell it for me.
I more or less took a peek at the magic tool shop, but all of the items were expensive and not very user-friendly. Disappointing.
“What the fuck did you say!?”
“Aah!? You wanna go!?”
When I left the magic tool shop, it seemed like a fight had started nearby.
Let’s not get close to the danger and leave quickly.
“Bomb! Im! Pact!”
“Exploding! Knuckle!”
With an ear-splitting crash, a large object was blown toward me.
Without having time to avoid it, I was crushed.
There's no way a feeble 10-year-old beautiful girl with only production skills can avoid it. Because I’m a feeble, yet sublime and fair 10-year-old beautiful girl! This is important.
“Gofkh!?”
“Gueeeeeeh!!”
A sound like a crushed frog escaped from my mouth. It hurts so much!
“Oi! A kid got dragged in!”
“Are you okay!?”
“Guards! Guards!”
“Ugh... so heavy...”
It seems that the yankee-san who had been fighting earlier has fallen on top of my body and has lost consciousness. Save me.
The people around me helped move yankee-san off me, and I was saved.
What a nuisance those people are. Seriously!

(T/N: she’s referring to those two, right? Not the ones who helped her, right?)

“Huh, you're early today.”
“I just went back to get my things. I'll head out again soon.”
Without looking at Onee-san’s face, I went back to my room, packed my things, and headed out.
I don't think I'll be able to see Onee-san’s face yet. I need to regain my presence of mind.
I went to the market and entered the magic tool shop.
“Welcome. Come and look around all you want.”
The clerk is an old woman. She’s outside my strike zone.
The shop is clean and neat with ominous magic tools neatly displayed.
“Fairy wings, rat tail, roasted lizard, ether crystal staff, skull quartz, griffon claw.”
They have a good lineup with a variety of items.
Prominently displayed on the wall is a mithril sword with a price tag that says 10 million El, but it doesn't seem like they have any intention of selling it. Are they boasting?
“I’ve got it!”
I suddenly had a flash of inspiration when I saw the Mithril sword!
Even if I can’t use any magic, can’t I synthesize magic tools to create something like a ring that makes me able to use any kind of magic?
Let's quickly go and buy up items that will allow me to use magic just by equipping them.
I'm worried if there's only a product description, so I put on the appraisal goggles and take a look.
When I wear this, my field of vision becomes full of text, which is irritating.
All of the items that can activate magical effects are expensive.
There is also a limit on the number of times you can use it, so no matter how much money you have, it won’t be enough.
I obediently gave up purchasing them.
*
“A place where magic powers are accumulating? Maybe the Valley of Miasma. Oh, you shouldn't go there.”
“Isn’t that place good? The Ether Lake, or something.”
“I think the Fairy Forest would be good too, you know?”
“I see.”
Currently, I’m in the Adventurer's Guild gathering information on places that seem to have a lot of magic power.
“Oya, I'm pretty sure you're... umm, Lotorl-chan, right?”
“Ah, Lolicon-san, I mean, Shishido-san.”
I magnificently made a fool of myself. I might have a good comedy skill.
“Who is it? Who instilled strange things into this child?”
No one instilled any strange things into me. It's just the Otaku-kun from my previous life.
“It's not us. Just now, this kid asked us about a place with a lot of magic power, so we just told her some good places. Lolicon-san.”
“How many times have I told you, I'm not a lolicon...”
“It's okay! Age doesn’t matter when it comes to love!”
“That's not what I’m talking about though...”
Putting aside the lolicon suspicions, I asked Shishido-san if there were any good places.
“Let’s see... I guess it’d be the Great Forest of Mana, and the Hanging Gardens of Ars.”
“Are they close to here?”
“If you go through the Gate. The toll will cost 100,000 El for a round trip though.”
“I see. Would it be fine even if I went alone?”
“I think it's okay if it's the Hanging Garden because it's a popular tourist destination.”
“I understand. I believe I’ll try going to the Hanging Garden. Everyone, thank you very much for telling me a lot of things.”
When in doubt, move with haste. Let's go now.
“Wait a minute! Are you planning to go now?”
“That’s right, so?”
“Even if you take a horse-drawn carriage to the neighboring city where the gate is located, you won't get there until late afternoon, so I think you should go tomorrow morning.”
“I see. Then I will stay overnight at an inn in the neighboring city, so I think I’ll go now.”
“From the way you speak, it sounds like you have money.”
Oops, that’s not good.
If they found out that a 10-year-old has money, the magic bag thing might happen all over again.
These people may be fine, but you never know where the bad guys might be listening.
That being said, if you look at my clothes, it’d be obvious. I have to be moderate in being stylish as well...
“Because the kind onee-sans are taking good care of me.”
It's not a lie, and it is true that they are treating me well.
“I see. It’s reassuring that you met a good person.”
Shishido-san, were you concerned about me? ...Kyun.
I’m more or less a 10-year-old girl, so it's easy for me to fall in love.
It might have been dangerous if I didn’t have memories of my previous life.

I went out empty-handed, so today I'm going to check out the Alchemy Guild's library to see if there's any medicine that can help me learn magic.
“Magic, magic, ma, ma, ma, there it is.”
It's nice that any guild member can read it.
“Sorcerer's tonic, magical beast’s bodily fluids, ether, magical herbs, hmmm.”
I got the general idea.
For now, I can just throw anything that has magical power into the potion kit, right?
I don’t get it at all.
Anyway, it’ll take some time to go back to get the potion kit, so should I go to the Magician's Guild for a frontal attack?
*
I finally arrived at the Magician’s Guild. Let's register immediately.
“I’d like to register, please.”
“Yes, yes, okay, registration is complete. Good luck!”
Fumu, the Magician’s Guild onee-san is also quite...
Just like creating a woman from port to port, it might be possible to create a favorite onee-san from guild to guild. The more people I can tease, the more fun it is. Truly a scum’s idea!
* (T/N: I don’t know the origin of that metaphor, but I’m pretty sure it’s about sailors who spend a long time in the sea, and they go see a woman in a port, but they go from place to place, so they have a woman in every port.)
“I want to learn magic, but what should I do?”
“In that case, you can either participate in the free training sessions, or you can pay money to put up a request on the board, or you can study on your own in the library, and last, you can learn using items.”
“Is Onee-san good at teaching?”
“Me!? I, look, I have a job to do as a receptionist! Please find someone else!”
“...Are you, bad at magic?”
“I’m not!”
“So you became a receptionist because you’re bad at it...”
“No! I'm not bad at it! I can use magic properly!”
“Then, can you show me something?”
“Umm, if, if it’s here, I think it might be, a little, dangerous.”
“I see, that’s a shame...”
“That's how it is, so please ask someone else──”
“Can Onee-san please show me when you are free?”
“Kuuuh! I-I'm busy working at the reception desk! I'm sorry! Next person please!”
Aahn, even though I’m just getting started!
I don't want to get in the way of people who are lining up, so it can't be helped but, should I go to the library?
There are a lot of people.
The library of the Magician’s Guild was overflowing with people.
I don't like crowds, but I want to read magic books, so I went to a deserted bookshelf.
“Consideration of Light Magic against Dark Magic. How To Reduce Magic Consumption in Life Magic. How To Use Muffling Magic That Even a Cat Can Understand. How To Use Magic That Makes Fried Chicken Come out of Your Right Hand. 10 Magics That Stop Attack Magic That Comes out of the Enemy’s Butt.”
I was curious about the fried chicken one, so I read it and found out it was a delusion. I feel let down.
I also read a lot of other things, and the one that was easiest to understand was the Basic Magic Lexicon.
‘Fire’, fire will come out. ‘Water’, water will come out. ‘Wind’, wind will blow.
Like that, it’s written in such a way that anyone who can read can understand it.
I chanted the Wind spell as a test, but nothing happened, so it seems that just chanting isn't enough.
I have a general idea of what kind of magic there is in this world, so let’s consider this a good thing.
And I’ve passed the time pretty nicely, so let's go back once to get the potion kit.

I woke up early as usual. I haven't decided anything in particular to do today.
I already have enough Hi-Potions in stock.
I also took a bath and washed my hair.
I also got my hand on some cute clothes, all that’s left is... my panties that are still being dyed.
Since I have Synthesis Skill, it’s easy to synthesize light blue items with panties, creating the light blue striped panties.
The potion is light blue, so I use Alchemy Skill to make it into fine powder and apply it to my white panties in stripes.
“Striped panties with a recovery effect are now complete!”
I have a memory from my previous life that panties are edible, but I can't eat them.
I can suck them, but I don't want to do it to my own panties.
If it’s Onee-san’s panties, I can probably do it. ...No, let's stop it after all.
* (T/N: I was confused for a moment, but then I remembered that her previous life was a pervert, no she’s still a pervert even now.)
I tried it on right away. Let's take a look in the mirror I found among the junk.
“Glance... Aah, it’s the best. I'm just too cute.”
I tried lifting up my skirt. It's criminally cute.
If there was another one of me, I'm sure they would have attacked me.
“Afuu... I’m too sensitive after all.”
It might be a good idea to try making a potion that lowers my sensitivity.
After that, I made polka dot panties and strawberry panties, tried them on, and pulled up my skirt, while I did that, Onee-san came to check on me, so I dyed her panties as well.
“Do I really have to show it to you?”
“Yes. Or it’d be unfair because you already saw mine.”
“Uuu... please forgive me with this...”
Onee-san (38) writhing in shame as she lifts up her skirt and shows off her striped panties to a 10-year-old girl is the best of the best! I wish I could have captured it on video!
If I think about it calmly, I’ve done something outrageous, haven’t I?
I can't seem to see Onee-san’s face properly, so let's go outside.

Before returning to the Item Creation Guild, I stop by the Pharmacist Guild.
“Ah, Lotorl-chan. Hm? Somehow, your smell is good? And isn't your hair smooth? Onee-san is surprised at how beautiful you suddenly became.”
“That’s because I took a bath.”
“A bath... you say!?”
The color of Onee-san’s eyes blatantly changed.
“I have three Hi-Potions today.”
“Wait a minute! Tell me more about the bath!”
“That talk of becoming my pet, have you given it any proper thought?”
“If you're serious about that, then Onee-san has an idea as well.”
She said that with a mysterious expression, while making a gesture as if to say that she was about to give a lecture, but victory goes to the one who makes the first move.
“There's no use lecturing me. No matter what you do to me, you won't get your hand on a Hi-Potion, and I won't even talk about the bath... Ha! It can't be, are you planning to use hypnosis or brainwashing drugs──”
“I won't do that! What are you thinking!”
“I see. I'm a little disappointed.”
“I totally have no idea what you are thinking...”
Lilirul-onee-san holding her head with her hand in worry is also quite good.
“Then I’d like to sell three bottles of Hi-Potion.”
“Mu, that’ll be 300,000 El...”
“Well then, Onee-san. Please think carefully about the pet thing. Otherwise, I might end up picking someone else.”
“W-what the heck is that?”
I gave her a fearless smile and left. This has become a regular event.
Fainting in agony on the way home is already expected. If I’m going to tease Onee-san, throwing away shame is a cinch.
Kappa seems like it’ll exist in this world.
* (T/N: 屁の河童 - ‘a cinch’, but it literally means ‘fart kappa’)
“Geez! If you're going to be late, at least leave a note or something!”
“...I think this sense of distance is still too early...”
“Sense of distance?”
“I’m grateful for your concern, but I don't think we have that kind of relationship yet.”
“Umm?”
“In other words, Onee-san and I are more than acquaintances, but less than friends. So if we get our sense of distance wrong here, my likability for Onee-san will drop. If it drops all the way down, it means that my relationship with Onee-san will become non-existent.”
“That’s...”
“But it's okay. You can also increase my likability rating, so please try your best. If you propose at the maximum favorability rating, we can even get married.”
“Married...!”
Fufufu, Onee-san is being poisoned in a good way.
If anyone else was listening, I think they would say that ‘these guys are crazy’. I am aware of that.
I didn't have time to make dinner, so continuing with yesterday's hamburger steak, we ate a tasteless stew that Onee-san made today.
There is no salvation in a meal that doesn't provide any emotion.

I always get up early in the morning. The education at the orphanage is truly wonderful. ...I'll pass on having to do it again.
“Today I'm going to buy things at the market again, and build a bath.”
Once I decided on it, I began action immediately.
I moved the large amount of potions to a room-temperature storage room instead of the refrigerator in the junk storehouse.
The difference from a shelf is whether it is sealed or not.
Besides, if you lower the room temperature, it should work as a refrigerator. I wouldn't want to be in a room like that, though.
It might be a good idea to observe how many days it takes for the potion to deteriorate.
For now, I put a label with the date on the bottle.
Carrying an empty and lighter backpack, I kissed the face of Onee-san who was still sleeping, it was just her cheek, so it was safe. I went out to the market, bought the same things as yesterday (except for the magic bag), and a set of work tools, ran back to the guild, sorted out my things, changed into work clothes, and rubbed my face against the chest of Onee-san who was still sleeping before heading out into the forest. Let's stop with the sexual harassment!
*
I thought about making a bathtub out of wood, but it was only after cutting down a tree that looked just right that I realized it would be faster to make a ceramic bathtub using my Alchemy Skill.
“I wonder if a Hi-Potion will heal it?”
When I gave it a try and sprinkled some on it, new sprouts sprung up one after another, and once again, it was like a fairy tale.
By the looks of it, it will take a little more time before the tree returns to its original size. But this growth rate is still too fast though.
It would be a waste to leave the tree that has been cut down, so let's build a hut.
I cut it into just the right size using a saw I bought at the market.
This is impossible. Please do not underestimate a child's stamina.
Let's make a stamina potion. Yes, let's do it.
* (T/N: So, how did she cut down that tree? Or is it only her stamina that is lacking, she doesn’t lack strength, is that it? Well, the tree shouldn’t be thick I guess, otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to cut it down.)
I spread the Hi-Potion with the sprayer. I wait for the flowers to grow thickly before collecting them.
I randomly put the flowers I collected into the potion kit and turn the handle, and a mysterious potion is complete.
I repeat this process until I have a potion with a stamina recovery effect.
Once a potion with a stamina recovery effect is created, I use appraisal goggles to find out which flowers were used and start mass-producing it.
Once I mass-produced it, I use my Synthesis Skill to increase the effects and potency, and use my Compounding Skill to remove unnecessary effects and potency.
I repeat this process and the infinite stamina potion is complete.
“Fuh, I've made something boring again... Gulp gulp gulp.”
It tastes like an energy drink without the carbonation! A real and golden one! I want to synthesize it with carbonated water!
I said that, but I haven’t gotten my hand on carbonated water. It doesn't seem to be on the market, so maybe there is no carbonated water in this world?
By the way, the effect of this infinite stamina potion lasts until I go to the bathroom. I didn't want to have a body that wouldn't have to sleep forever.
Sleeping potion? It puts you completely asleep, so it’s dangerous in this world.
Well then, shall I go build a hut?
Giko giko dottan battan ton ton ton.
* (T/N: *saw saw* *clamor* *ruckus* *smack smack smack*)
“Nicely done!”
Even without any woodworking skills, this much is easy! All you have to do is make it square and hammer in the nails. I cut out the window frame, and done, it was perfect!
“Next is the bath!”
I put my hands on the dirt and used my Alchemy Skill to create a large ceramic bowl.
Skills are really convenient.
All that's left to do is collect firewood and... the bath, I can’t lift it.
It's okay! I made a stove under the bath using Alchemy Skill!
It's getting hard to get up into the bath...
It's okay! I made a ladder with Alchemy Skill!
No water? There's a potion kit! I’ll turn the handle until the potion fills the bath! In the meantime, light the wood and... what about fire...?
It's okay! I remember both the Yumigiri and the Maigiri methods from watching survival online videos from my previous life! If I make a fire starting kit, it’ll be done, easy peasy! I’ll do my best!
I really wanted to learn magic.
It would be nice if the alchemy book contained a medicine that could help me learn magic...
After much effort, the potion bath is completed!
It took a while to cool down since I brought it to a boil, but it's okay now! I made a thermometer with Alchemy Skill! It's perfect!
“Then let's go in right away! Afuu, the best...”
I have unlimited stamina, but mental fatigue is there. My fatigue is fading away.
“Nice temperature, ahahan!”
My heart is calming down. I want to fall asleep like this.
“Oh, right, let's use the shampoo.”
I temporarily get out of the bath, take out the shampoo from my backpack and wash my hair.
In this world, I didn't have a chance to wash my hair, so I don't know how to wash long hair. Let's just scrub it randomly. Washa washa.
There is no shower, so I rinse it off in the bath.
Harmful substances can be removed with Compounding Skill, so there is no need to replace this potion bath forever.
Well, since it's warmed up, it will decrease by that amount.
“Aah, my head is so light, this is the best...”
So this is what supreme bliss is like.
“The starry sky is beautiful...”
The sun completely set and I heard dogs howling.
There aren't many people who take their dogs for walks in this forest though.
...Are they wolves?
“First of all, I need to stay calm and act calmly.”
I quickly get out of the bath, dry myself with a towel, and put on the clothes I bought at the market. The panties is white.
I packed my work tools into my backpack, put out the fire, and headed back to the city.
It's probably okay to leave the hut and bath as is. It's not a place where people come after all.
Conversely, the probability of monsters appearing was higher though.

“Fertilizer... alcohol... liquid sugar... lotion... oil... honey...!”
I used the Anything Potion Kit for alchemy and threw flowers into it at random, and as a result, I was able to create ingredients for shampoo.
Why do I know they’re ingredients of shampoo? It's because my Alchemy Skill whispered it to me. It feels like something just comes to mind in my head though.
“Compound, Synthesis, Alchemy! Yes, the shampoo is complete!”
I put my right foot up on the stump that I always work on, put my left hand on my hip, and held a shampoo bottle in my right hand, raising it high into the sky with a smug look on my face.
[Lotorl has completed the shampoo!]
I feel like I see a system message saying that. I can't actually see it though.
By the way, the bees in this world are about the size of a cow, so if you get close to a beehive, you will die. Because of that, honey hardly appears on the market.
“Let’s taste it, let’s taste it, so sweeeet! So it tastes like this.”
I yummily gobbled up honey in the potion bottle. It’s the best!
If there are lemons on sale at the market, let’s make it into lemonade and drink it.
Next, I’ll make a spray!
“Is the sprayer my limit...?”
* (T/N: [スプレー - Spray], [霧吹き - sprayer.] I don’t know the difference.)
I couldn't think of a way to make a spray, but a sprayer would work just fine.
When I attached it to a bottle containing Hi-Potion and sprayed it as a test, a beautiful rainbow appeared. Fairy tale!
I feel like I'm using it in a really wasteful way, but I can make as much as I want, so whatever.
“Oya? Oyaoyaoya? The flowers are growing rapidly... huh...!?"
Hi-Potion has such an effect!? This is a new discovery!
As I got carried away and scattered the mist of Hi-Potion, weeds began to grow and huge flowers began to bloom, making it truly become a fairy tale.
I wonder if my name will go down in history as a fairy tale called Flower Blooming Girl later?
Rather than that, if I have this Hi-Potion Sprayer, I won't have to move around to collect materials every time, and I can just stay here. Convenient, convenient.
After that, I used the potion kit for compounding and mass-produced Hi-Potions.
I also created some body part loss recovery potions, but the name is too long, so I renamed them Mega Potions.
Next, while making health potions, I managed to make a potion that could cure all illnesses, so I tried drinking it right away, but it tasted super yucky and gross. Like muddy vegetable juice concentrated 100 times. Even if I say that, no one will probably understand. If I say stink bug juice, would anyone know what it is?
I checked my body after drinking it, and it seems that me being skinny is not because of illness. Let's eat a lot and gain weight. Both the Otaku-kun in my past life and myself in this life love being squishy.
When I returned to the Item Creation Guild, Samari-onee-san welcomed me with a kind smile, saying, “Welcome home”.
I replied, “I'm home,” and said, “I have a present for Onee-san,” and forced the super yucky and gross potion into her mouth, making her drink it. No mercy, no, in this case I have is mercy, right? I’m trying to make her healthy, so I have mercy, right?
“Uu... tastes awful...”
The feeling of the light disappearing from Onee-san’s eyes and her leaning helplessly on the chair was the best, it made me shiver. While suppressing my desire to mess her up, I explained that it was a potion that would make her healthy.
“Now that I think about it... my shoulder stiffness and lower back pain have healed!?”
Good, good.
All’s well that ends well!
Dinner was a hamburger steak prepared by Onee-san that was neither delicious nor bad.
Maybe it’s a good idea to make Onee-san dependent on me to the point where the world will end without me?
It's devilish even if I say so myself. Tehehe.

I took 10 bottles of Hi-Potion to the Pharmacist Guild and here too, played and teased the receptionist onee-san, Lilirul (23).
“Hi-Potion! Not it! Lotorl-chan. Welcome!”
“...I'm hurt. I'm thinking of going to the Alchemy Guild.”
“Waaaah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! That wasn’t it! That wasn’t it just now!”
“Onee-san, so you see people as objects... I'm shocked...”
“I'm really sorry! I don't mean any harm in the slightest! Please believe me!”
“Just words alone is...”
“Anything! I'll do anything you say!”
“Hm, just now, you said anything, didn’t you?”
“Eh? Yes! If it’s anything I can do, I’ll do it!”
“Then, hand, please. Yes, your hand.”
I held out my right hand in front of Onee-san and asked her in a pose of asking a dog for its hand.
“I’m not a dog, but... I did say anything, so if it’s just that... here, hand.”
Onee-san came out from the counter, stood there and gave me her hand. That’s not good..
“Please squat down and give me your hand properly.”
“Eeh, it can't be helped. Here, hand.”
“The other one.”
“Muu, the other one.”
“Beg.”
“Be-!? That's no good!”
“Alchemy.”
“Daaaaammmmmnnnnn iiiiittttt! Here!”
“Good, good, good!”
I caressed Onee-san like I would a dog. I'm very satisfied!
“Aah, so embarrassing! I'm glad no one came.”
She flapped her hands to try to cool down her bright red face. Onee-san is so cute.
“Then, here are today's ten Hi-Potions.”
I lined up the bottles containing Hi-Potion from my backpack on the counter one by one.
“Ten!? They are all real, right!? Appraisal appraisal... Wow, they're real...”
“How much will it be today?”
“S-same as yesterday? Maybe we should negotiate the price?”
“No, it's fine if it's the same though, ah, same as yesterday, put it in the card.”
“Yes, yes. One million El, here you go.”
I confirmed that the amount of 1,000,000 El was recorded on the card. Hehehe, what a profitable business.
“Also, this is only if Onee-san is okay with it but, would you like to be my pet?”
“Wha!? What are you talking about!? What I did earlier was just an apology!”
“I'll make a Hi-Potion just for you, you know?”
“Eeh...”
“If you become my pet, I'll make a Hi-Potion just for you and give it to you as a present. What do you think?”
“No, that's... Are you seriously saying that...?”
“I'll come tomorrow too. Please think about it, okay?”
“Ah, wait a-!”
The mysterious sadistic little girl left with a fearless smile on her face.
On the way to the forest, I started collecting items, fainting in agony as I remembered the acts I had just perpetrated.
It seems like the Otaku-kun in my previous life was docile, but in this life I seem to be super sadistic.
Bullying Onee-san is really fun. I think she'll get back at me later though... but I’ll cross that bridge when I get there!

“That’s what happened. So, is it okay if I stay at Onee-san’s house for a while?”
Currently, I am trying to get a room at the house of the Onee-san of the Item Creation Guild.
“O-okay! Lotorl-chan is always welcome! Even though I call it a home, this guild also serves as my home.”
“So that's why there are no people here.”
“Eh, what do you mean?”
“It's nothing”
Onee-san always drinks alcohol every night while complaining every night after all. I can see her suddenly crying or flying into a rage. ※This delusion is fiction and has nothing to do with the real Onee-san.
“More importantly, isn’t there a backpack that can hold an infinite amount of things?”
“You blatantly diverted the conversation, didn’t you? If there was something like that, this guild would be thriving by now.”
“Then, please lend me your normal backpack. I have to carry my things from the inn.”
“Is that so? Wait a minute. Backpack backpack...”
And she rummaged through the junkyard and pulled out a dusty backpack. It's okay though.
Onee-san wiped the dust off with her hands and handed me the backpack with a smile, saying, “Here you go.” That's what I’m talking about!
“I see you've thrown away your girl power.”
“Girl power? What could it be?”
Onee-san tilts her head in puzzlement. So you’ve grown up while remaining a child. I understand. Being an adult is hard, isn’t it?
I'm much more mature than I was in my previous life, so I can properly say “Thank you very much.” How admirable!
I returned to the inn with the backpack I had borrowed on my back, stuffed the Hi-Potion, the Anything Potion Kit, and the appraisal goggles that I put in the shelf into my backpack, and then, with some sarcasm, I thanked the innkeeper for his help.
As an apology, he gave me 10,000 El, but deep down he seemed to look down on me as a child. Formality alone cannot save the heart I see. Jeez.
*
It seems the Item Creation Guild will lend me a room on their second floor, so let’s gratefully live there.
This place is also dusty and full of junk. I wonder if I can make a cleaning potion or something. One that will keep the room clean just by hanging it. It might be a good idea to make a spray with my Alchemy Skill.
“Now then, would you like me to give you a Hi-Potion in exchange for lodging?”
When I went down to the first floor and gave 10 bottles of Hi-Potion to Onee-san, Samari-san (38), she froze.
“Ooi, Onee-saan? If you don't come back, I'm going to fondle your boobs, okaay?”
“Ha! Hi-Potion!? Are you really giving it to me for free!?”
“Yes. I'd like to stay here for a while until I buy a house. This also doubles as a greeting for moving in.”
“Oh, dear! Oh, dear! What a capable girl you are!? Would you like to be my daughter?”
“If I become Onee-san’s daughter, I won’t be able to marry you, right?”
“Jeez, you’re teasing me again.”
“We are going to live together from now on, you know? I think that depending on your efforts, there's a good chance we'll have a future together.”
“...But we're both women, and by the time Lotorl-chan grows up, I'll be an old lady, you know?”
“Does age or gender matter in love?”
“Uu-au... Y-you’re teasing me, aren't you?”
“If Onee-san is serious about it, I’ll be serious about it too, okay?”
“Uh, ah, ugu...”
Uwaa, her face is bright red.
I teased her until she cried again? I'm not that much of a demon. Kihihi...!
“Onee-san. If you want to take me, you should do it now when no one's calling dibs on me, you know? No one knows what will happen in the future after all. Ah, do you know Shishido-san from the Adventurer's Guild? I think that guy is pretty good. He promised to give me advice if I have any trouble.”
He completely called dibs on me, didn’t he? Well, I never thought about doing this and that with Shishido-san though, so it doesn't really matter.
Onee-san’s bright red face turned pale all at once. So funny, so funny. I can't stop doing those little devil moves.
“I-if you need advice, I’ll do it! I'll listen to you! Tell me anything! Please!”
“I see. Well then, I'll do that... for now that is.”
“Always! Always consult only with me! Please! Please!”
“Eeh, you're being selfish I see. Then, I'll consult with Onee-san until I buy a house. Ufufu.”
“Thank you very much! Thank you very much!”
Onee-san is completely being played with. How pitiful...
But that's cute, isn't it? Kuhihi.
I was able to play with Onee-san for a while, which relieved me of my frustration at having my magic bag stolen.
I'm giving away the Hi-Potions for free after all, so it's a win-win, right?

I dressed myself and departed for the market.
The market was buzzing with activity, already starting to get busy this early in the morning.
“Welcome! Welcome! We got some good stuff today too!”
“If you fill this ball with water... look, this happens!”
“That's a bit of a tall order, sir.”
“Lower! Lower! Please!”
“Hehehe, mister is bad too...”
“I won’t care if anyone is listening, okay? Fuhahaha”
Umu. The weather is nice today too.
I immediately entered a clothing store with a fashionable exterior and started rummaging for cute clothes. I have the money, so I get a lot of choices.
“A white T-shirt, navy blue shorts, and a light blue one piece, aren’t they nice, aren’t they nice, aren’t they cute?”
They’re choke-full of Otaku-kun's taste.
I also picked out a few other outfits and some white panties. I wonder if it’s still too early for a bra?
Once I return to the inn, I’ll dye the panties to make light blue striped panties. Polka dot ones too.
My bag is bulging with all the clothes I bought, so let's go check out some backpacks.
“Expensive... but I can buy it!”
The magic bag was on sale for 200,000, so I bought it right away!
It doesn't have that much capacity, but it's definitely better than a backpack.
When I put the bag I was carrying into the magic bag without taking anything out of it, I was able to store it easily! It's amazingly amazing!
Next, I want to go for accessories, but I can make them with my own Alchemy Skill, they’ll be not just cheaper, but free. It will also help me level up my Skills.
Let’s just look around and see what designs accessories have.
After looking around the decoration shops, I bought everything I thought I would need, like daily necessities, and went back to the inn while eating some delicious food I bought at the food stalls. It was truly an extravagant spree...!
I'm sure I'll be hurt later, but I'm in the spirit of ‘it’s fine as long as I’m having fun now’.
*
“I want my own house. I need to save up some money...”
I guess I could say ‘as expected’, somehow...
My magic bag was stolen. It has everything I bought today. Ah, my bag was taken too, damn...
I put the valuables such as Hi-Potion on a shelf, so they were safe.
It seems that the thief was after my magic bag, so fortunately he did not search the room.
“I was just going to the bathroom for a bit, seriously!”
Since there is no one I can direct my anger to, I vent my anger by stamping the ground on the spot.
I'm not in the mental state to think that I’m causing a nuisance to other customers.
When I told the innkeeper that my bag had been stolen, he apologized sincerely, and I wanted to say something like, “What is the safety management of this inn doing?” but I couldn't get angry.
Afterwards, the innkeeper called the guards, but I was told that even if the thief was caught, I should not expect the stolen items to be returned. You want me to buy them again? I see... Gunununu.

I return to the city and go to the Pharmacist Guild.
“Hm? If you want to work, do it tomorrow, okay? Children should go to bed early and wake up early.”
“No, I wanted to sell something.”
“Ara, what is it?”
“Three bottles of Hi-Potion.”
“Hi-Potion, is it? Um, the purchase price is... Hi-Potion? Huh? It's not potion, but Hi-Potion? Wait a minute, Appraisal, Appraisal. No way, it's real!?”
“It’s real, you know?”
“Did you steal it? I guess not. There are only so many people who have them in the first place... Hey, how did you make this?”
“...I think I’ll go to the Alchemy Guild.”
“Waaaaaah! Wait, wait! I'll buy it! I'll buy it, okay? So wait!”
“How much will it be?”
“Umm, one bottle is 100,000 El. Are you okay with 300,000 El for three?”
“Yes. I leave it to you.”
I handed my card to the onee-san and had her put it in.
Fufufu, what a profitable business.
“I'll come back tomorrow.”
“Are you going to sell some tomorrow too?”
I smiled without answering and left the place. Mysterious little girl feeling. eighth-grader syndrome?
Wait? Since I’m 10 years old, is it a fourth-grader syndrome? Well, it doesn't matter.
You can pay for an Inn by card at any member of the Inn Guild, so I had them introduce me to a nice inn.
“A fluffy bed! No bath! No shower! That's the same everywhere though?! Hahaha!”
I ended up in a strange mood. Let's just sleep. I’ll get a meal... tomorrow... zzZ.
“I woke up! Good morning! Waking up at 6 a.m. was unthinkable when I was a Hiki-NEET!”
I'm going shopping today.
The clothes I received at the orphanage were donated, worn-out, baggy clothes, and I didn't have many changes of underwear.
I want to switch my bag from a shoulder bag to a backpack, and most of all, I want to look stylish!
Now that I’ve been reborn as a beautiful girl, I wanted to dress up cutely! I’m ugly by this world's standards though! If I didn’t remember the memories of my previous life, I’d have lived a subservient life as an ugly person for sure.
“I'm a beautiful girl! I'm a beautiful girl! I'm a beautiful girl! Alright!”
I make a suggestion at myself while looking in the full-length mirror in the room.
Aren’t I cuter than most idols from my previous life? Self-praise.
Long gritty hair that should have been light brown and smooth. Let's make shampoo.
Long eyelashes, big light blue eyes. My eyes were dirty with eye discharge.
Breasts that are large for my age. I remember other girls being bigger.
Good short legs if they grow to be slender. I'm 10 years old after all.
I was a little curious, so I went completely naked.
“Yeah, I'm skinny.”
The elixir should have made me healthy... wasn't there any effect other than immortality?
For the time being, let's eat a lot and gain weight. Let's make a health potion as well.
Just because I am immortal doesn't mean I won't get sick.
What's more, I’ll just no longer die due to my lifespan, but if my head gets crushed, I can die normally.
My wounds just heal faster than normal people, so let’s make sure to mass-produce body part recovery potions.
While thinking about those, I touched my own body and tried to enjoy the sensation, but since it was my own body, it was no different from my previous life. Disappointing.
“This damn pervert savage lolicon Hiki-NEET!”
I did say it myself but, it felt like I was being abused by a naked little girl.
Yes, it's the grossest thing ever. Hahaha. Haa...

I finished my business at the Item Creation Guild, so I headed straight to the forest. I'll do my best to make potions!
“Even things like stones and tree branches can also be turned into potions? ...That guild, isn’t it actually pretty amazing?”
While muttering something like that, I worked hard on potion making.
So stones produce mercury, and tree branches produce resin. What is a potion?
It's probably due to my Alchemy Skill. I don't really understand though.
I can think of many ways to use resin, but the only knowledge I have about mercury is that it's harmful to the human body, so I think I'll ask the Alchemy Guild to buy it.
Soil produces liquid fertilizer and sometimes detoxification potions, and leaves produce liquid intestinal and laxative solutions. Why?
I put everything I could find in the forest into the potion kit one by one, kept turning the handle, and synthesized all the finished items. The completed product is a pseudo-elixir. I’ve gone and made a crude wonder drug...
It's frustrating that my Compounding level was so low that the active ingredients disappeared along with the harmful ingredients.
Drinking this won't make me immortal, but it does seem to extend my lifespan. By about one week.
After 50 times of mass-producing and synthesizing this pseudo-elixir, the elixir is finally complete! I did it!
“Is this what the little girl god was talking about when she said to look forward to it?”
I feel like it’s ‘this too’. I think I can make more amazing things. That's crazy.
If I sell this elixir without thinking about anything, it’ll probably bounce from one place to another and start a world war.
I might become a brainwashed slave and will be made to work forever.
It's all a delusion though.
And so, I have to dispose of this hazardous material quickly.
“Drinking now. Gulp gulp.”
It tastes like water. It tastes better than the tap water in my previous life.
No change in my body. No change...?
“Ah.”
I’ve gone and done it... I'm really stupid.
“I'm immortal! I'm a kid! I'm forever 10 years old!? That’s the best!? No, that’s the worst!!”
Ugaaaaa! I’ve gone and done iiiiiit!!
What should I do?! What should I really do?? What should I, wait?
“It’ll be solved if I just make a growth medicine. Of course I knew that."
Otaku-kun's knowledge is useful in situations like this.
I should just drink a potion that makes me grow 1 year older on my birthday. There is a possibility that I will suddenly become bon, kyuu, bon, but that's about it.* (T/N: become busty and curvy?)
By the way, I don't know my real birthday because I'm an orphan.
The day I’m placed in the orphanage will be my birthday.
Now that the problem of not being able to grow has been resolved, all that’s left is to make some Hi-Potions and have the Pharmacist Guild buy them.
After all, if I sell a lot of things, I’ll get into a lot of trouble.
The Item Creation Guild is rejected because they have no money.
I continued making Hi-Potions until the sun went down and completed about 120 Hi-Potions.
Selling them all at once might cause problems, so let’s sell three a day.

Since I can't find a job I like, why not create one myself?
And so, I came to the forest near the city.
It's a forest where even children come to play, so it's safe and secure as long as I don't go deep into the forest. Because of that, there are no rare items here though.
For the time being, I’ll raise my skill level and bring the items I make to various guilds and make money that way, I can probably make a living doing that for a while.
First, let's gather some weeds and make a pseudo-potion.
“Essa, Hoisa?”
I put some weed into the simple potion creation kit I received when I registered with the depopulated Item Creation Guild.
It seems that by turning the handle it can create a potion that matches the user's Skill level.
It seems that if used by someone who does not have the Skill to make potions, a vegetable juice potion will be created.
By the way, potions made using the methods of the Pharmacist Guild and Alchemy Guild can also be used to create potions that are higher than the user’s Skill level, so this item seems to have immeasurable use.* (T/N: I don’t get it.)
Also, potions above level 10 cannot be made with this creation kit.
I didn't really listen though.
Like a juicer, a green liquid was poured into the potion bottle and a mysterious potion was created.
I check the potency with a simple appraisal magnifying glass (also received from the Item Creation Guild).
With that, the recovery potion was ready.
Let's keep up this pace and make more.
By the way, potion bottles can be produced infinitely using Alchemy Skill as long as I have soil. Convenient.
If only they’d buy potion bottles.
* (T/N: it seems ‘Alchemy’ here is like the one from FMA.)
After that, I continued diligently creating potions, and once I’ve saved up a certain amount of potions, I combine potions of the same potency with my Synthesis Skill to create a potion with even higher potency.
Sometimes, I’d end up with a potion that had both a healing effect and a poisonous effect, so I used my Compounding Skill on them, leaving the potion with the higher potency.
* (T/N: it seems ‘Compounding’ can remove bad effects of an item. While ‘Synthesis’ is a skill to combine things.)
“Ooh, a potion that might even bring back the dead! This one is a poisonous potion that might even kill a god!”
I’ve only used simple appraisal, so the only good parts are recovery potion that restores missing body parts and a poisonous potion that will kill you if you drink it. I only said it randomly myself though.* (T/N: I don’t get it. So basically, she’s joking?)
So let's go sell it right away.
The potion making only took about 30 minutes, so the sun is still high.
While I’m at it, I decided to sell those to the depopulated Item Creation Guild.
Since it’s depopulated, I probably won’t get a high price, but these are commemoration, you know, commemoration.
“I made an amazing potion, so please buy it!”
“Ara! Are you interested in working here?!”
“No, this is just a thank you.”
“I-I see... but alright! I'll check what kind of potion you made!”
The reception onee-san who was too old to get married (38) pulled out a magnifying glass that was more luxurious and shiny than my simple appraisal magnifying glass, and opened her eyes wide. Her face is scary.
“These are amazing...! A level 10 Hi-Potion and this one is a Level 50 poison potion... how in the world did you make these!?”
I won't tell you because it would be a pain in the ass if I did.
More importantly, money! Money!
“How much is the price?”
“Let’s see, I'd like to say 1 million, but the most we can give is 500,000, so it would be helpful if you could make it 300,000!”
I got bowed out...
This is the first time that I was haggled out of a purchase, including in my previous life... It makes me wonder how bad their financial situation is.
“Okay, but please give me something better than this simple kit and magnifying glass.”
“Yes! With pleasureeeee!? Is it okay!? Truly!?”
“Onee-san is a beauty anyway, so just seeing your happy face is already a profit.”
“...Marry me.”
“Is it okay?”
“Eh...?”
“Fufu, that's a lie.”
Her face looked like a pigeon’s who’s been shot by a peashooter.
“A lie? The purchase too...?”
“That one's true, by the way, the marriage too in the future, maybe?”
“Ha, eh, ah, so it’s a joke! You shouldn't make fun of Onee-san!”
“Eh, I’m serious, you know? To think you’d think it's a joke... I’m so sad... sob, sob.”
“Eh, ah, I’m, I’m sorry! I'll apologize, so don't cry!”
Even though I faked crying in a fake way, Onee-san took me seriously. Fuhihi.
“Fufu, Onee-san is so cute.”
“Ah, geez! Onee-san is really going to get angry!”
“Kya─, so scary.”
After about 10 more exchanges, Onee-san almost started crying, so I stopped.
Teasing Onee-san is so fuuuuuuun!!
I never thought that toying with people could give me so much pleasure. Smirk....
“Here are the 300,000 El, a potion kit, and appraisal goggles.”
“Thank you very much. Ah, can I leave my money with you?”
“Yes, it’s fine. I'll record it on your card.”
It's super convenient to have a bank card that allows you to withdraw money from any guild. The person who developed this magic system is a genius.
