I Favor the Villainess
179. Natural
Only one day about a week after receiving a request for a contraindication box.
Upon returning from the school, a letter had been received from Dr. Torrid of Bauer.
'I'm so sorry, but please give up on that box. That's not for the world to let out. That's probably something that touches the contraindications of this world. If you don't want to be supervised (...) for the rest of your life like I do, you mustn't get your hands on it'
The letter was written in authentic letters.
"Please, Dr. Todd, there's nothing you can do about this."
Lady Claire, who has read the text, becomes sinister.
Claire with a wrinkle on her forehead is cute, too.
"What do you do? Can you manage that box with your knowledge?
"You can open it yourself. But I'm worried about what Dr. Torrid is saying."
Contraindications in the world, surveillance - are all noisy words.
"Does Ray know what's in that box?
"Yes, it must have been some sort of magic tool that Dr. Torrid was studying during the Empire and a notebook summarizing his research."
"What are the effects of the demonic props and the contents of the notebook?
"Demonic props are magic amplifiers in the form of rings. It is unstable because it cannot be called a finished product, but if it can be used, it can greatly increase the magic of the wearer."
"Hmm."
I know some of you already have an idea, but it is the protagonist, Filine, who can use it.
"I don't know more about the notebook, but there should have been data spelled out about the human experiments that were taking place in the empire and the remorse associated with it. There was no name for Dr. Torrid in Revolili, and he was only introduced to it with the records of one researcher. But if it's the original, Dr. Torrid must have lost his daughter to that research."
"Oh, my God..."
There must have been some pretty vivid descriptions in the research records.
Few inhumane experiments.
I never dreamed that that warm, gentle Dr. Trid was the author of that record.
"But you don't know a bit about the word" taboo surveillance in the world. Or maybe you should open the box first and then ask Dr. Trid again "
"You have to be prepared to get mad at me."
Sure, Dr. Trid might get angry, but it's still about that teacher.
If I open it, I don't know what else to do. I think you're going to give up.
Above all, I don't think the teacher will leave matters as they are that use the word contraindications, surveillance, etc.
I'm sure he'll explain.
"So, how do you open that box after all?
Master Claire cut the numbness.
He still cared.
"That box, there was a magic stone on the surface, right?
"Yeah, it was black, blue, and red, so it's a magic stone of soil, water, and fire attributes, respectively."
"Yes, each magic stone is flushed with corresponding magic at the same time."
"... was it that simple?
Master Claire seems to have clapped out.
"It's not easy. You can't just let the magic of three attributes flow. If it was that simple, it would be open to the technicians of the Empire. The magic that flows has to come from the same people."
"What... does that mean...?
"Yes, it means you can't open it unless it's at least more than a tricaster that can use three attributes: soil, water and fire"
Tricasters and quadcasters are even less common in this world, where even dual casters are rare.
There may be others, but as far as I can tell, there are only three of them: Master Manaria, Dr. Tridd, and May.
In Revolili, Manaria, who visited the Empire, is asked to open it for cooperation, but in this situation it is not realistic for Manaria to come to the Empire.
"That's what you mean?
"Yes, Mae will do her best."
"Okay -?
"Do you look like Mae?
Listening to her ears, May and Allea came from the children's room.
"Yeah, I'd like to ask Mae a few questions before I do,"
"Yeah."
"May can now use magic, can't she?
"Yes, I am."
"Which attributes can be used?
"Hmm? You can almost grab it now, can't you?
"... my child is too talented to be in trouble"
The degree of aptitude will still grow from now on, but if you do, what is a complete quadcaster at the age of six?
"Oh well. You worked hard. So you think you can run all three magic powers at the same time?
"Hmm...... I don't know because I've never done it."
"Right."
Simultaneous activation of multiple magic powers is a less common technique.
For example, I am accustomed to synthetic magic such as water metheo that I used when I fought Master Manaria, but the general public doesn't even have that idea in the first place.
"Shall we practice a little? Let's start with two. dirt on your right hand, water on your left hand...... can you?
I let magic flow through my hands, as I set an example.
Circulate only magic without knitting any particular configuration.
May looked at it with interest, then concentrated her consciousness as she glanced at her own hand.
"... this kind of thing?
"Wow, it's done. Genius."
Fine, it's supposed to be a tricky technique, but May succeeded in launching it concurrently with ease.
"Then one more thing from that state. Now fire between your hands."
"Yeah, I'll try"
From here on out, it's an area I can only understand in theory.
Even if Mae couldn't do it right away, I was going to wait a few days in temper until I could...
"Oh, maybe I could"
"... seriously?
Exploring magic, besides the magic of both hands properly, there is also the magic of fire in between.
May is no quicker to remember something than Allea.
It's not too late, but it's normal.
But maybe it swallows wonderfully fast when it comes to magic.
"Yeah, perfect. You can disarm it, May. Thanks."
"Ha... It's annoying."
May said so and hugged Master Claire.
"It's just so sloppy May! Me too!"
"Yes, yes, there you are"
"Nothing. You can come over here, okay?
"Ray, you're not fluffy."
... I'm not sad. Don't.
"If you ask Mae for this, you'll be fine."
"Right. Well, I'll let you know that Hilda has a box opening address."
"Please."
"Just a little worried."
"What is it?
"Actually..."
I explained to Lady Claire what could happen next.
"You can't take May to a place where that might happen!
"No, but Mae's power is essential to open the box."
"No! If you're in danger, I'll think of another way!
"Dear Claire, I know how you feel. Neither am I."
"Then!"
"Please calm down, Master Claire"
I laid my hands on the shoulders of Lady Claire, who was furious, and I continued to mock her.
"I certainly can't say it's 100 percent safe. But I'll take care of it. Claire, please be careful with May's protection."
"But I don't want Ray to be in danger."
"It's okay. I have original knowledge. Because I know exactly how to calm things down."
I'm actually a little anxious, but I didn't tell you that to convince Master Claire.
"Please, Master Claire."
"... I see."
It appeared reluctantly, but Claire's approval could also be mounted.
Come on, it's finally the opening of the contraindication box.
