Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 515: No training wheels necessary

Chapter 515: No training wheels necessary

Laeva and I returned to the workshop and we talked about making bikes for the children, and bikes that are possible to ride while wearing long skirts that Maribelle had requested, the so-called mamachari.

A bike that you could use as is with a long skirt?

Yeah, I already know the shape of the frame for it so that should be fine.

Ive been riding a mamachari since I was in middle school, so Im well acquainted with its frame. Maybe I should change the size of the tires.

Will the frame be made of mithril alloy?

As to be expected, mithril alloy might be a problem.

Yes, that seems possible. Theres no problem if its used in the Sanctuary, but it would be dangerous if in Volton.

Laeva and I used mithril alloy without reserve, but its metal that was originally used in super high quality equipment. Theres always the worry that it would be stolen in Volton.

But I dont wanna purposely increase the grade.

Then, how about coating it with paint so no one can tell it is mithril alloy?

Lets do that. Mithril alloy has a nice tinge, but should we choose different colors?

Just as Laeva had said, lets conceal it using paint. I dont feel the need to downgrade what we use. Mithril can be mined in large quantities at the mining district of the Sanctuary thanks to Gnome.

Will we keep the same shape as the prototype?

Lets try making different types.

I figured wed try creating a few different sizes of mountain bikes instead of cross bikes. Additionally, for the kids who like to wear skirts on a regular basis, we should make a mini mamachari.

The problem are the Cat Sith sisters.

Hmmm, just in case, Ill make bikes that suit Miri and Lalas physiques, but if they cant ride it, Ill think of something else.

I was worried about Miri and Lala riding the bikes because they were comparably smaller than the children of other races, but lets just try making some training wheels that could be included. Itd be so sad if they were left out, after all.

Without delay, I transmuted one example to show Laeva how the mamachari frame looks like.

Something like this, I guess?

I see, even skirts would be alright with this.

Then lets continue transmuting the other parts to make a whole bike.

Yes!

Brakes are difficult, so I just reused the one from the cross bike. I transmuted the handle, saddle, pedals, tires, hubs and smokes, then Laeva and I fine tuned it as we assembled everything together.

Ohh, so this is the bike for the maids.

Yup, should we have Maribelle come by to check?

Yes!

Laeva took the assembled mamachari out of the workshop.

While I was transmuting the parts for the kids bike, Laeva came back with the mamachari.

How was it? What did Maribelle say?

The head maid would like a basket.

A basket, huh. The basket is definitely an essential part of the mamachari. Okay, gotcha.

Just as Maribelle had requested, I transmuted a basket often used for the mamachari.

While we are at it, instead of in the front, how about a loading rack and a detachable basket on the back?

If a heavy load was placed on the front basket, it would be difficult to drive the bike because of poor balance, so we should also prepare a rear basket.

Okay, how about something like this? Laeva, could you please duplicate this?

Understood. How many do you need?

Uhh, for the time being, well need two for the Sanctuary and two for the Volton mansion, so three more.

Ill make it immediately.

Thanks.

I entrusted the remaining mamacharis to Laeva, and I switched to working on the kids bikes.

As I thought about Wappa and the kids heights, I transmuted the frame of the mountain bike. Naturally, I was using mithril alloy.

I carefully adjusted the size of everything, including the thicker tires, handle, and breaks as I crafted and assembled it.

Since there didnt seem to be any defects, so I transmuted an identical mountain bike in one go.

Once I complete something, it wasnt that difficult to transmute it again and skip steps.

Since Melanie and Malorie were Elves, they had longer limbs than Wappa and the others, so I transmuted two bikes of a bigger size.

The problem was the Cat Sith sisters bikes.

I first tried making the Wappas mountain bikes smaller, but its balance wasnt all that great, so I tried adjusting everything until it was perfect.

Okay, this should be good enough.

I should get Miri and Lala to try it out.

With that in mind, I called out to Laeva and then headed to Miri and Lalas house.

I hope theyll be happy about it.

Miri, Lala, could you try the bikes out for me?

Really nya!?

Yaaaay!

I made some training wheels in case they needed it, but

They rode it so smoothly right away.

Haha, the children of this world have amazing motor skills.
