This kind of thing can only be done slowly; it can't be rushed.
However, increasing strength in this world is truly slow. Although it doesn't have the hidden dangers of the previous world, having gotten used to the speed of level grinding in the previous world, this much slower speed is still a bit unfamiliar.
Now, when she trains her attribute values, she basically keeps her Martial Arts active to constantly adapt. When the use of Martial Arts becomes her normal state in any world, it means her attribute values have reached the upper limit of that Martial Art and she can no longer use it to improve.
This is a method ordinary people can't learn. After all, not everyone can see through their own body and adjust their state at any time. Doing this without such an ability will only result in overconsumption and overdrawing one's life. In the end, let alone seeing results from training, not training oneself to death would be a stroke of pure luck.
"Master, you should rest."
Alice knocked on the door and walked in.
She saw the bloodstains on the floor, went silent for a moment, and didn't say much. After all, Tsukasa had told her about this before performing the experiment.
Alice was naturally against her performing such experiments. Suicide and the like felt abnormal just thinking about it; who would commit suicide just to research magic?
In any case, Alice didn't understand why she had to go to such lengths. She always told Alice not to cause trouble outside and to keep a low profile, but Alice couldn't understand why she pursued power so desperately.
Because Alice often needed to go out to buy groceries, she had seen many humans, but none of those humans could serve as a reference for her. Because no human would be like her master; although there were also humans who used any means necessary to pursue power, she felt that those people were different from her master.
Tsukasa certainly noticed Alice's changes as well; this doll was becoming more and more like a human and enjoyed thinking more. This was a good thing, because the ultimate goal of an Alchemical Doll is to create a flawless human—the kind of person who could even be called a god!
The fact that Alice was becoming more human bit by bit showed that her technology was up to standard; this doll was progressing little by little. Although she might not reach the peak of doll technology and become a so-called Divine Doll, she was already very satisfied with this work. After all, she wasn't originally a doll maker; being able to make a doll like Alice was already the result of performing beyond her normal level. Without the support of the Sword Saint State's ability, she wouldn't have been able to make it no matter what, so Alice could be said to be her proudest work.
"What dish did you make today?"
"Cheese baked shrimp noodles, stir-fried broccoli, and tomato egg soup..."
Alice recited the names of various dishes one by one—dishes that were almost never seen in this world.
Of course, there were plenty of delicious dishes in this world, but Tsukasa still preferred the dishes from her memories. To recreate these remembered dishes, she had even leased several farms and ranches specifically to provide her with ingredients. Then, she upgraded Alice's cooking skills again, letting Alice—
—practice continuously according to her descriptions, finally succeeding in recreating the flavors in her memory and recording these recipes.
If not for the fear of exposing her identity as a Transmigrator, Tsukasa felt that if she let Alice open a restaurant, Alice's current culinary skills would definitely make her a multi-millionaire. But it didn't make much difference; for some reason, the profits from the farms, ranches, and fish ponds seemed to be doing very well.
She hired elderly people from the city to watch over the places and paid a high price to hire the Four Sages to guard these properties. One could only say that the power of the Sword Saint State was incredibly formidable; if any problem occurred there, she only needed to activate the Sword Saint State to take a look, and she could then use magic to find a solution. Magic was truly a very convenient and miraculous power; it was just that not many people used it for production. However, based on the magic she had accidentally developed, magic's productivity was extremely high. If mages were willing to use their talents in this area, crop yields would surely become even more bountiful.
However, thinking about the status of the human race in this world, one could understand that this was unrealistic. Because mages were precious combat assets, if they all went to study production, what would the human race rely on to resist when foreign races invaded?
Rely on the martial arts of warriors? Don't be ridiculous. Even the strongest martial art has an upper limit, or rather, the human body has an upper limit. Once that limit is reached, it's impossible to continue improving.
After all, not everyone has her conditions—the ability to adjust their state at any time and continuously progress. Facing foreign races with naturally superior physical fitness, the human race doesn't have much of an advantage in martial arts. But magic is different; beings among foreign races who can use magic are also very rare. Moreover, the effects of magic differ from martial arts. In martial arts, strength is strength; if you can't win, you can't win. But magic has many unexpected effects; even if one's strength is insufficient, they can win in other aspects. This is the charm of magic.
However...
Her evaluation should be taken with a grain of salt.
After all, as a mage who only worked part-time as a warrior, she would definitely speak well of mages.
