Year 7446, Month 10, Day 6

We returned from the dungeon.

Miduchi is wearing the {Elven.Chainmail} and Giberuti is carrying the rubber armor she was wearing up until now in one of his open bags. There's several reasons she's wearing it. The first is because it stands out too much.

The {Elven.Chainmail} is a strange {Magic.Item} and if an elf or anyone else is fine but if they equip it then changes into what appears to be slightly worn-out normal chainmail. Of course, if they take it off again it changes back to having a radiance as if it was brand new chainmail.

However, if the user isn't an elf, when they enter the sight of other elves and they can instantly recognize that it's a very powerful and familiar {Magic.Item}. At the same time they'll feel a strong sense that something is about the one equipping or holding the {Elven.Chainmail}. However, in the case the one equipping it is an elf(or dark elf) then there's nothing like that.

It's the same in the case that no one is equipping it but in Miduchi's words, the moment she recognizes that the one in possession of it is Toris and those sort of off feelings weakened(it seems they don't completely disappear). Also, as long as it doesn't enter their sight..for example, if it's put into a bag or something so it can't be seen..then there's no problem.

Then we should just put it into a bag, and some might think it would be fine if we throw it into one of Giberuti's bags, but with that a different problem came to light. It's no problem at first but if you try to carry or hold it like that and it feels like weight gradually increases. In the case you aren't wearing it, it normally has a weight of just about 15 kg but after carrying it for about 1 hour the weight will feel double that to the one carrying it.

In that case it would be better for Toris or Miduchi to wear it. If Toris wears it then we'd have to take apart his bandedmail and carry that so in that case Miduchi's rubber protectors were overwhelmingly lighter so they're easy to carry. For those sorts of reasons we have Miduchi wearing it to carry it for the time being.

Also, in regards to the size but since it's a size so even a person with a large build can wear it, whether Toris or Miduchi put it on it's still baggy, so it's necessary to fix the size. As a matter of fact fixing the size of chainmail isn't all that difficult. If they just have some guts then it's possible even for an amateur. This is just a matter of it not taking any special technique to fix the size.

If you just have a dedicated tool like radio pliers and patiently do the labor then it's possible for anyone to do it. When I was still little I saw while maintenance was being done on chainmail belonging to the squires of Bakuddo a number of times and when the head of household is handed over I saw them change the size for the new head a number of times as well. Slaves were made to do the work but putting aside the maintenance it took 2~3 weeks to change the size. When the rubber armor was first introduced they were released from that sort of labor and more useful in a different more productive labor.

By the way, in regards to this size changing as well, when Miduchi and Toris wear it themselves, it seems they understand where the line of chains needs to be taken off to fit them as well. Everyone else including myself had no clue. That's why rather than just leaving it to slaves, it's probably more efficient to have Toris the user join in on the work as well. Of course the majority of the work will still be done by slaves though.

I'll try showing my face in Ronslail's store later on. The delivery of the 20 slaves for the sausage factory is already finished but it should be fine even if it increases by another couple of people right. Zulu and Angela have training as well and resting their bodies is a part of their job. Giberuti has jobs like developing new menu items with Basutoral and recently I've been sending him on errands to my company in the capital when he goes to inspect the cleaning job of the factory so he doesn't have that sort of time.

We ended up returning just a bit early so the {Butchers} and {Exterminators} don't seem to have returned yet. We decided to go ahead in cashing in the magic stones and return to our inn, then come back to the entrance plaza after that.
