Jen laughs laughingly as he sees a dripping tacket.
"No, if you read at this speed, sooner or later, all the books in the kingdom will be read out.
I wonder if they'll do it. That's not what I'm talking about. "
"Do you remember everything?
"I can say that, and I can say that it's not. It's just a useful index if you just remember it, right? But what's amazing about him is that he systematically organizes the knowledge that was scattered as fragments and brings up new facts."
Heh?
When Jen smiled bitterly at a tacket that raised a lost voice without knowing what to do, he lowered Mandragola to the floor.
"Mandragola. I want you to show me what you know. Tell me about the outbreak and transformation of the beast."
"Hanas, Hanas, Maju, Hanas."
Mandragola slipped off Jen's arm and hid in the shadow of the bookshelf. After a while, Mandragora returns with three books. All of them were books that I thought were quite old. He showed me the book in front of the tackles. And unlike the way Mandragora talked before, he spoke in a fluent tone.
"It was at least 5,000 years ago that something suddenly appeared here as a laboratory."
"Wow. I was surprised when I suddenly started chatting. You can talk like that."
To the surprise that it had nothing to do with the story, Mandragora showed the roots of a book.
The book was written in ancient letters, so I have no idea what's written on the tacket. Perhaps what Mandragola said is written there.
Next, Mandragola pointed to an illustration of another book. It was a lizard-like picture of a beast with feathers on its white body.
The first one made there was the tail of the silver ridge. It's primitive, and it becomes the ancestor of all beasts. "
Mandragora spins words in a fluent manner.
I remember Jen telling me about this beast before. The majestic white dragon mural painted on the ceiling between the kings was also said to depict the "tail of the silver ridge".
I had read about the existence of a dragon in a book, but I hadn't seen a taket. I'd like to take a look at it once, but it's so smart that I can't find it even if I look for it.
Mandragora also refers to another book. It was an old, run-down book that was about to collapse.
All beasts were made of the tail of the silver ridge . Therefore, it will rule all beasts. And his blood was inherited unto man, and his family was good at using it to manipulate the beast with his will.
"There are people who have the power to manipulate the beast... it may appear in ancient regional legends, but it has always been thought of as imaginary. However, if you combine the descriptions that Mandragola has found, you can't discard the possibility of being real."
Everywhere, every time. There are many pieces of literature that describe it in fragments.
The descriptions were so detailed that the historians couldn't get there. It was Mandragora's power to read and memorize all the books in this forbidden library that brought up the facts of the past.
"Hey, Taketo. Even now, the descendants of the" tail of the silver ridge "live somewhere in this world. I wonder what would happen if I tried to use it militarily."
That being said, Taketto remembers the conversation he had with Jen in the royal palace before.
"... sand whales"
"Yes, the red liquid that was in that device. That's why I think it's blood.
That's why. "
Jen thought it might have been the blood of the descendants of the Silver Ridge Tail that was inside the device and using it to manipulate the Beast.
"But" Silver Ridge Tail "is a dragon that lived a long time ago, right? Why is that blood mixed with humans?"
In response to Taketo's question, Jen thinned Moss Green's eyes and said, "That's right."
"Indeed, there are reptile systems like dragons in beasts, bird systems like Phoenix, mammal systems like Fenryl, plant systems like Mandragora, and abiotic systems... there are various ecosystems. It's hard for Niwaka to believe that they were all one beast. That's why I want to ask you. Was there any magic in the world you lived in that made it possible to have something in common with all these different creatures?
When asked that, the tacket shuts up. Taketo himself is not as bright as the technology of the other world. However, as much as I was working on animal smuggling control, I didn't have to read biology magazines or academic books to gather information.
Together, those clumsy knowledge.
"I don't think I can..."
In that world, it is no longer unusual to add genetic improvements to organisms. One organism's genes could also be transplanted into a completely different organism.
For example, they may incorporate vegetable genes into livestock in order to produce livestock that contains nutrients that are not inherently produced in mammals. There are no such cases now in the enumeration.
"But it takes a lot of technology and knowledge."
"Yes, that's right. In our world, it's the power of magical dreams. But you're here. You know the tricks that aren't supposed to exist in this world as real. For example, but... It's just a hypothetical story, but those who allegedly made the" tail of the silver ridge "and other beasts. Sometimes the literature comes out under the name of" lab "or" researcher, "but if it was people who had been transferred from another world just like you."
The story of the creation of the beast, which was thought to be a myth, is all the more realistic.
The phenomenon that Taketo thought was strange, that the name of the beast in that world is the same as in this world, also has a reason.
"This is what Mandragola found out, but it seems that something called the 'lab' existed somewhere on the Girghisus plateau. And the Plateau of Gilgisas is now within the Virginian Empire."
"Empire....."
Speaking of which, I have often heard the name of the Empire after the poaching of beasts lately.
You must have figured out what Taketo was thinking. Jen smiles bitterly.
"It's a bad match, isn't it?
Tacket nods.
Jen previously told me that the incident in which the sand whales ran wild was likely the work of illegal immigrants from the Empire in a subsequent investigation.
Chante said that someone with an imperial accent was involved in the Forest Cat incident.
"The books stolen from this forbidden library were all original books about ancient beasts. Maybe the Empire was involved. Anyway."
Jen sighs deeply.
"It's almost certain that that country is doing something terrible with the beast. Besides, I can't believe you went all the way into someone else's country.... but I don't know why. There are currently no large beasts in Imperial territory. Their habitat is skewed within the realm."
"So, what are you going to do...?
Mandragora tries to climb up the body of the bamboo shoot and the bamboo shoot, so she hugs you. It was warm here in the winter, or there were a few small flowers in the grass trees that came out of everywhere Mandragora's hair.
"I've been thinking a lot about it, but... it could be a war."
Heavy air flowed between the two.
There, Mandragora, who did not read the air, suddenly made a noise with "nom nom" in the arm of the tacket. It looks like I'm getting hungry.
"Mandragola, it's time to eat. I have my next appointment, so do you want to spend some time? Taketo, what are you gonna do? I'll drive you in the wagon that's keeping you waiting."
After some thought, the tacket slowly shaken its neck to the side.
"I'll help you bathe in Mandragola's wine. And... I want to think slowly as I walk."
Huh? And Jen's Moss Green eyes look at the bait.
"Chante... is still misunderstood. I want to convey my feelings properly."
The words of determination seeped into Jen's eyes. Until you know what's misunderstood.
Even so, Jen seemed to know.
"Yeah, that's good.... humans don't know what the future will look like. If you have words to say, you should tell them at that time. Otherwise, I don't know when I won't see you again. It's too late to regret it. Not to mention, the situation is getting worse today. Even more so."
Tacket also nodded. I've put it off a long time ago. If I postponed it any longer, I felt like I was really losing something important.
