Fake Saint Of The Year

Gaze at the sites of civilization as you build a barrier through the ocean.

Instead of taking a short walk today, I was roaming the site of the Cynthianalta Empire instead of Saito Marugi.

It's fun to just look at the rusty metal that's been under the ocean for over a thousand years, and the buildings are all worn out.

Why are you doing this? Because the absence of monsters prevented monsters from playing with each other, and I had to find a hobby instead.

That's why I've been hobbying around the ruins lately.

In the future, it was such a developed civilization, and I was hoping that if I looked for it, I would find something interesting.

In such a light mood, he walks around the ruins and enters a museum-like place in front of him. The model of the car was left in the glass case.

Even if it is a glass case, it is all cracked, and the model inside is worn out, but there are some things that hold the original shape, so if you take it back and remove the rust, it may become a decoration of the room.

Then there was a metal box in the back. I tried to open it, but it was closed tightly and there was rust all over it and it was not opened very well.

Well, I can break the box with magic, so I'll take it back and open it on the ground.

The contents may be rubbish, but if it is rubbish, you can enjoy pulling it off at that time.

Thinking about it, I cut up today's ruin exploration and went back to the ground, and slashed the edge of the box with a magical sword of light.

Then shake the box and let the contents spit out. "As a result, it came out..."

"... Camera?"

It was a camera-like object. The state of preservation was surprisingly good, and perhaps some magic had been used in the box itself.

It was said that the Cynthian Empire had also cleared the hole in the space that was connected to the Earth, and it might have been sealed a little by magic that acted on the space.

There was nothing in the photographs at that time, but they were probably such valuable items that they were kept so tightly.

That said, maybe an unknown weapon that looks like a camera or a tool that can harm your body, so why don't you give it a try?

Worst of all, I wouldn't be harmed if I was constantly expanding the barrier.

So, after trying things out... yeah, it's a normal camera.

Bullets don't jump, they don't explode, they don't emit harmful ingredients. It's just a camera.

I tried to shoot the seaside, shoot the birds, and let the golem created by magic take a selfie, but after thinking about it, I realized that I didn't know how to develop it.

I've seen videos of things like setting things up in various instruments, darkening the room, soaking it in liquids, but I don't know how to do it at all because I didn't understand the important "What is the need for that process" at all.

Moreover, I can't shoot anymore because the film is out. I totally did this.

What are you going to do? This... I'm too stupid to develop my precious film when I suddenly run out of it.

By the way, I don't even know what the film is made of.

I've heard of silver halide, but that's about it.

If you have a smartphone at hand, you can investigate it here, but there is nothing convenient about it.

Shallow school? No way. There are few people who can suddenly answer "Please tell me what the film is made of here" in a situation sealed off by a smartphone.

At the very least, you should throw the whole thing at a clever scholar without putting your hands on it.... that's very nice of you!

Even if you ask yourself questions in your mind, the situation will not change anything. It is a festival entirely after the festival.

"...... well, listen up"

I didn't do it.

Fortunately, the camera itself remains in its original form almost a thousand years ago, and this alone will be a valuable document.

― ― I thought, but the salvation was in a surprising place.

When I went back to the forest, I saw my camera and the monkeys (guardians) were very responsive, so I lent it to them, and they developed some kind of photo.

Moreover, the negatives seemed to have the footage of the time, and there was a civilized cityscape that was thought to have been destroyed by the witch, and the people who lived there.

I'm surprised at this. These monkeys (guardians), how can they develop photographs even though they look like they've thrown away their civilization?

However, if you think about it carefully, these guys can move the train for some reason... and if you think about it seriously, you might lose.

Anyway, this is a valuable document from a thousand years ago, and at the same time it means nothing to me.

So when the soldiers came in from the castle on a regular basis, I pressed them to deliver it to Eyes' old man.

... a few days later, a report came in that some of them had been stolen by bandits in transit.

What, Ma?

◇

When I went to the Royal Castle in the Kingdom of Bilberi, I had already gathered almost all the major figures.

Eyes's old man had several knights, the general archbishop of the Church of Our Lady. A few of Japan's leading aristocrats and some perverted asshole glasses. Then, Bernell happened to be temporarily on vacation after finishing his training.

I felt even more anxious than before.

"Every time I see this guy, he gets daunted..."

"I'm sorry, Master Elleese... the precious millennia-old materials provided by Master Elleese at the corner..."

Eyes' old man is pretty dented... but the camera was left intact on the table in front of him.

Huh? There's a camera. So all they took was a picture?

But there are also a few photographs on the side of the camera.

"Fortunately... this camera is safe." But according to the soldiers who were transporting them, several exquisite paintings that had been handed over to them were stolen. ”

“I see. Let me check.”

I said no and got the picture.

What was stolen? I feel a little painful when I have pictures of the town a thousand years ago.

I don't have a replacement for that.

I thought all the pictures from a thousand years ago were safe.

Huh? What? Everything's fine. The soldier you were transporting was very capable.

Ah, it's okay. Everything is safe.

Is that true?

"Yes, a picture of a thousand years ago in the camera itself. Both of them remain.”

"That's good... but what did the bandits steal..."

"Oh, then I must have taken it with me because I copied a lot of things to try."

When I said that, everyone in the room was relieved.

You can only say that you were lucky.

All valuable materials are safe and only landscape photographs have been stolen.

“That's the best part. If you think that the elaborate painting itself is well worth it, it must be a pain in the ass, but it's not enough to make such a noise. By the way, what was in the painting?"

"Um, sure... the sea, the sand... and the birds that were flying nearby..."

When I recall my memories and talk about the contents of the photo, the air flows like a relief.

I'm relieved to know that none of these were really stolen at all.

Did you take anything else? Sure enough... yes, I'll let the golem hold it for the last time...

"Ah, and you copied me, too."

― ― At that moment, the atmosphere of everyone on the scene changed...
