Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Episode 20 Magic

"I made a mistake ..."

I held my head.

Currently, a very serious problem is occurring.

No livestock feed.

Why did this happen? The reason is straightforward.

I did not know that a horse would eat so much.

Obviously, this horse feeds four times as many cattle.

Why is your body size the same! !

Just happen to have a large amount of food?

"No, horses are originally creatures that eat many times more than cows?"

Leah said to refrain.

In short, it is me who did not check properly.

Well, what to do ...

"Slaughter?"

Tetra said while holding the handle of a defense iron sword.

"Slaughter ... I don't know ..."

I don't want to kill because it was expensive.

Something you can't maintain anyway.

"Um ... the kingdom of Ferm should have been a meadow, shouldn't I take it there? I think it's easy to go back and forth on a day trip because horses are faster than cows ... "

Well, that's it. I only have that hand ...

I think that the place where grass is fed by livestock is a national thing.

In other words, letting us feed our horses without permission is like some kind of territorial invasion.

I don't want to make too much contact. What is King Ferm?

I don't hear good rumors.

Are you rebelling and becoming king, and now you're thoroughly pursuing those who rebel against you?

Naturally, as a ruler, of course ... but I'm scared.

But now. I had negotiated directly with King Rossais.

We often negotiate with the surrounding villages, so the existence of this village should already be quite known.

Is it a matter of time to contact ...

Should I not find it?

"Well then? Do you know the rear ...?"

"My brother! I go, I go!

Rosward raised his hand.

It's fine to be motivated, but if you're attacked by a wolf, you should finally escape? Because I can never win.

Somehow it worked. Is that OK?

_______________

At midnight, I got up.

"It's a beautiful full moon as ever."

A big moon is shining in the sky.

The Earth's moon is huge for a satellite, but the moon in this world looks several times larger.

Is it just a short distance or is the star itself usually large?

Thanks to that, the night in this world is quite bright.

Of course not as much as in urban Japan. But it's definitely brighter than the countryside night in Japan.

Yulia comes on a full moon night.

Everyone has to wake up.

Most veteran members are already able to acquire anti-curse skills, but new children do not.

Also, members such as So Young, Tetra, and Lulu are very good and still have a lot of room to grow, so I can't afford to skip them.

"Do you want to wash your face?"

Tetra is the worst child to get up from. It takes a lot of work to cause this.

However, if you put it off later, you have to get up first because you will be relentless.

It will be a very fierce battle, so if you do not wake up here you can not win.

I hold the torch and head to the creek in the village.

It can be used not only for washing the body, but also for agricultural water, boiling and drinking water.

However, it's hard water, so you can't say it's delicious even if your mouth is torn.

"Ah……"

Ogawa had a previous customer.

My pure white back burns into my eyes.

The predecessor looked back here, noticing the sign of the person.

Tetra.

The eyes meet each other.

A few seconds later, Tetra sat down with a bright red face.

Since the brook is shallow, the body of Tetra is not hidden by water.

"……saw?"

"I only look at my back."

"... That's a problem. You really don't see it?"

Do you hate to see your back so much? I don't understand.

"At least I don't see strange things."

"so"

Tetra's expression is reassuring whether she is satisfied.

Then he stood up with the cloth wrapped around his body.

"Take the clothes out there"

"Oh, I see."

I pick up Tetra's clothes and give it to me.

In this way, Tetra is still a beautiful girl.

Agricultural work is inevitably sunburned and the skin is rough, but Tetra's skin is very beautiful.

The breasts are not big enough for compliments, but they are still big enough if you consider that they are only 13 years old.

Have you mentioned expectations for future growth?

"Actually, I made something amazing, so I have time to show it off."

"I don't care ... but what did you make?"

When I heard that, Tetra laughed mischievously.

"pleasure"

______________

"Well, Julia. Do you know what Tetra made?"

"Ah. Well. Probably surprising."

Julia smiled happily.

I look at Tetra. The eyes of other members are also concentrated on Tetra.

"This is what I want to show"

Tetra spread the paper in front of us.

Geometric patterns are drawn on the paper with something like red ink.

What is this?

"This red is my blood"

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Yeah. I just washed it with water and liquored as Almus said."

Tetra said, showing her thumb with a piece of cloth.

Even though you taught me how to disinfect alcohol, I don't know what will happen, so I want you to stop doing dangerous things.

"Be careful now"

While saying so, Tetra spread the paper cleanly on the ground and put her hand on the center of the paper.

"Glow"

When Tetra muttered, the geometric pattern began to glow.

This is ...

"Alms, try it"

"Eh! I am? I don't have such a talent."

Unfortunately I'm a normal talent for spells and can only do mine spells.

Only a few girls can use spells other than anti-curse.

At present, there are ten sorcerers in our village that can be used other than anti-curses. Only three sorcerers can use very advanced magic, Tetra, Soyeon, and Lulu.

"Good."

The back is pushed by Tetra.

it's no use. Will you try it?

I put my hand in the center and muttered like Tetra.

Then the geometric pattern began to shine!

"What does it mean?"

"As you know, there is a difference in talent in magic. There are two reasons. One is the power of the soul. There are individual differences in the power of spells. There is a huge difference among women. Magic can only be done by a handful of women.

"Ah"

When I nodded, Tetra started explaining again.

"The magical problem can be easily solved. Bring in power from the outside. You can make up for it with sacrifice, magician blood, and stones."

A magic stone is a stone with magical power.

Coming out of the ground.

There are theories that people's grudges solidify, fallen gods, parts of the bodies of angels and spirits, and fairy corpses.

The truth is a mystery.

"The second reason is that the construction of art requires a very high level of skill, and the rule of thumb is high."

All good sorcerers can use simple spells at birth without being taught.

Therefore, it is very difficult to teach people.

They are told to teach them how to breathe, and few are taught.

It's similar.

So how do you teach me?

There is a method of speaking to the soul.

A good sorcerer can interfere with the soul.

Use your own soul to exercise and get a sense.

He said he wouldn't have any talent if he didn't learn within about ten times, and he should give up.

"The construction of the art can be supplemented to some extent by actions such as dancing and singing."

If you want to do so, you can just think about it. .

However, a successful magic requires a concentration of steel.

That's why spells and other methods have been devised to reduce the burden.

But after all, dancing and singing also require talent. So it cannot be a solution.

Only a handful of humans, like Yulia, have dozens of times the power of normal humans, have the concentration of steel, have absolute pitch and high motor nerves.

"This is a graphic representation of the art of luminous magic. The magic is supplemented by my blood. It lasts about ten seconds."

"... I mean, that you represented all the art of magic with (...) geometric patterns?"

"Yes. You can write a figure on paper and carry it with it.

Many sorcerers could only make art by singing, dancing, and spelling. That's because the magic could not be theorized.

Spelling is more successful when singing and dancing empirically. After all, it is that much.

After all, it is the magician's ability to determine the success or failure of the art.

It overturned it all.

"How did you break this shape?"

"I tried it little by little. The rest is this. I should write the geometric pattern according to this."

Tetra gave me five sheets of paper.

The formula is written there.

"The root of everything is number"

Which Greek are you?

"I decided to name this procedure"

Because it is a formula that expresses art, it's an art. As it is?

"Well, if this is put into practical use, will the magician be helped?"

If that happens, Yulia's character will be thin. Personality is only a beautiful girl royal family ... Isn't it just enough?

"Isn't it? There are things that can't be expressed in mathematical formulas."

"Yes, because there are things in the world that can't be expressed in numbers, such as pi or square root. The power of nature-creating a fire or creating a wind seems to be reproducible, but the proportion of emotions It seems impossible to represent a great curse or a barrier. ''

Was good.

I was a little worried that I would be drowned because there was no square root.

"In other words, combining this technique with the same magic as before is the strongest !!"

Lulu said while raising the tension.

"By the way, I've been silent a while ago, but did everyone understand?

Tetra turned around and asked the silent Ron earlier.

"It's just amazing"

"Well, that's enough."

I can hardly understand the formulas written.

Because I can't use magic.

"But, it's awkward to spell by drawing all the things that can and cannot be represented in that shape. It's something else."

So that's it. Have a point.
