Easier than expected, I successfully recruited Luce Critechun as a companion, feeling elated as if I could fly in the sky.
“Heehee, heeheeheehee.”
After finishing the video call with him, I entered a secluded area behind the mansion, checking for any abnormalities in the patrol and magic barriers, and chuckled to myself.
The Zero sitting on my shoulder shook its head with a rustle.
「Are you that happy?」
“Of course.”
I’ve already gathered half of my party members.
I had thought this quest was an extremely hard mode, but it was proceeding smoothly, so I was about to relax.
I didn’t have a clue why the zombie situation happened, or how to solve it, but.

Still, I felt proud of the sense of accomplishment.
「You whined, but you solved it well? Well, here’s the reward.」
“Oh!”
Zero took out the subquest reward with an exclamation that was not admiration.
This time too, they offered quite a useful skill as a reward.
[Help Me, MacGyver! (Intermediate)] [3 times a day, you can receive the manufacturing method of the desired item through a magic scroll.] [You can naturally create the desired item by tearing the scroll.] [You might be able to create something more amazing with advanced skills.]“Oh, oh, oh……! Nice!”

‘I did well dividing the areas and inspecting the barriers.’
It was a bit uncomfortable to converse with Zero through thought alone.
So this little moment of joy, rolling around and screaming, was thrilling.
“Let’s see. What would be good to make with this?”
I hummed a tune, happily perusing the skill window.
3 times a day. A skill to make useful things. It felt like getting a master key, and I was content.
‘Even if Zero speaks rudely, it subtly moves in a helpful direction.’
After all, this creature wants to leave work as soon as possible, just like any office worker.
With that thought, Zero looked somewhat lovable for the first time.
“Zero, thank you. You know my heart, right?”

As I gently stroked the fluffy hamster body with my finger, Zero was startled.
「……What’s with you? Did you eat something wrong? You’re scary.」
“…….”
Yeah. This hamster was always like this.
‘Complaining even when I do something nice.’
Grumbling, I was staring intently at the skill window, and Zero tapped my cheek.
「Haven’t you already decided?」
“That’s true.”
‘A water gun and sprayer to contain the holy water!’
It would be good to make something like a portable spray.

In the original world, water guns might have been children’s toys, and sprayers or portable sprays might have been household items, but….
‘Not in this place where zombies have appeared.’
Especially since I knew the holy power of the holy water could paralyze zombies, there was no reason not to use it.
I had already told my butler that I needed to make a water gun and sprayer when I returned from the temple, but I was frustrated because I didn’t know how to make them.
With this skill, I felt relieved.
“Is there anyone around?”
I briefly looked around and confirmed that there was no sign of anyone, then activated the skill.
“Help me, MacGyver!”
Ugh, it was embarrassing even though no one was there.
I visualized the water gun and sprayer I knew in my mind, and the status window popped up, transitioning to a loading screen.

A few seconds later, two neatly tied magic scrolls fell in front of my eyes.
When I opened the scrolls, there was a longbarreled water gun, suitable for shooting at a distance, in the sniper style, and a sprayshaped sprayer that was convenient to carry.
I was about to tear the magic scroll without hesitation, but suddenly I had a thought and asked Zero.
“Hey, Zero.”
Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch. Gulp.
「What.」
Zero was munching on a big macadamia nut, not even a real hamster.

Where on earth did that come from?
“This magic scroll, it’s not just applicable to me, right?”
「Huh? Yeah.」
Oh, well, then that’s even better.
Even if I get this custommade recipe, it would be difficult to massproduce.
Wouldn’t it be more efficient to have someone skilled in making these items take care of it?

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
