The next day, I went into town and revisited the inn.
“Welcome, Neko-san!”
Nell welcomes me.
Children are better off smiling.
What shall we do today?
Yotsuba and I would like to talk, but Nancy-san is taking care of her right now.
I can’t interrupt her.
I will try to talk with her when I get the chance later.
Together with Nell, I entered Mac-kun’s room.
The room was as messy as ever.
“Neko-san, it finally finished!”
Mac-kun is holding the copper machine with both hands.
Oh, it’s finished!
It took them less than a month. The craftsman is good at what he does.
A keyboard-like machine with buttons written in another language.
Yup, this is a typewriter.
A typewriter is a machine that types letters on paper by pressing the letter button.
It has completely disappeared in today’s age of computers and printers, but it used to be a reassuring ally when making documents.
“I already gave one to the king. This is for Neko-san.”
I received the typewriter from Mac-kun.
“I’ll pour the ink.”
The ink is poured and sticks to the letter part of the pin-shaped hammer that strikes the letter.
Inked ribbon? There’s no way I could make something like that.
I’m soaking the ink into the special sponge I’ve alchemized.
Alright, let’s get started.
I take out the paper, set it up, and type.
Clack, clack, clack, clack, clack.
I typed, [How the skill works, how it is used and its application].
Each time I type a letter, the paper slides neatly.
Line break. Oh, it works so well.
“Wow! That’s great! It is so much faster than writing by hand!”
Mac-kun is easily impressed. This speed is relatively slow since I’m not used to it yet.
Eventually, I will be able to type twice as fast as this.
As a test, I typed a brief note about how skills work, how to use them, and how to apply them in this world.
I thought this while sprinting through the forest on my way to cure Yotsuba.
After 10 minutes, I finished writing.
I removed the paper from the typewriter.
“What is this? It’s amazing! It’s like something written by a researcher~.”
“Nico, what’s so great about that?”
“You know, Nell-chan.
It means that this one paper is worth much more than a cheap book.”
“He’s an amazing cat!”
“That’s right!”
Don’t praise me for every little thing like that.
If you will praise me, praise me when I succeed in a more significant project.
I’ve got a great way to pass the time.
I’ll play with Nell and the others today to the fullest and get back to the forest.
