I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

There are two possible routes to the ancient city of Lana, which is located in a basin in the Black Mountains, on the usual journey.

The first one is the northbound route from the capital, heading east along the canal, past Parker and south from the northern end of the Black Mountains. This route is more popular with merchants and tourists carrying large loads because of the relatively small difference in elevation and the well-developed and safe roads. It is a common route with stagecoaches running along it.

The other is the southbound route, which runs north from Vossossossetts up the river into the Black Mountains and then veers off the road to Ende. This route can be steep and winding, and it's not uncommon to encounter monsters along the way. It is said that skilled adventurers and merchants on their way to or from Ende use this route to earn a little extra money.

The man in the store went all the way from Border Sets to Lana via the northbound route, rather than the shortest southbound route.

We took the third route, which was neither. To be frank, it was an air route. From Dalton, we skipped the Dark Forest, the Border Sets River, and the Black Mountains, and descended into the mountains near Lana, passing through a checkpoint with a look of 'I took the highway'.

I decided not to go down directly to Lana because I didn't know the size of the committee, and it was not a good idea to stand out. Well, it's impossible to be inconspicuous with these members. Even if they would eventually notice us, I thought it would be better to do so in the future as much as possible.

The main street is relatively wide. The main street is relatively wide, although it's narrower on one side street.

The city is slightly hilly, too. How did you manage to put down the cobblestones?

"There's a few of them with their weapons down. Adventurers?

There's a group of ruins in the south. There may be ruins that have not yet been excavated, so adventurers who want to get rich are based here.

...... moreover, tonight's accommodation.

Well, I need to find an inn with good food. Mm-hmm.

Yes, we must eat the delicious food of the ancient city!　That's what I'm here for!

No, that's not what I'm here for, sister Jasmine?

Wherever we come to town, we're always the same. We were chatting and wandering down the street with me in the lead.

A group of beautiful girls, beautiful girls and cute dogs. There is no reason not to stand out. It's inevitable that they'll attract the attention of passersby, and it always provokes the evil ones.

"Hehehe, boy, that's a good one!

Hey, hey!　You are the one who did this to me!

"Well, that's an unusual servant. I'll take it, huh?

We pass by, leaving behind dead rioters in our wake. No, they're not dead. They're just unconscious.

"Boy, you're relentless. You've been getting more and more 'killer' lately, haven't you?

It's too much trouble. I don't have time to deal with every single thing.

The "magic flashbang" is a "killing spirit" that uses magic power to kill an opponent, and thanks to a deeper understanding of magic power, it can be used more efficiently and effectively.

The main points of this "magic flashbang" are "concreteness" and "amount of magic".

I used to have a vague idea of what magic power was, but now, after gaining a lot of experience, I've come to understand it as 'magic element under my control'.

Magen exists everywhere in this world and has the ability to retain information, and it can give orders to magi that are taken into the body and controlled by the user. This is called magic power.

If you give it commands such as state change, transformation, and movement, it will appear as magic. When the command is executed and finished, the magic power reverts to magick and dissipates.

I think this understanding is generally correct, but this theory doesn't solve the problem of aptitude. Anyone should be able to use any magic if they can give a precise command. But in reality, you can only use magic that you have an aptitude for. The reason for this is an issue for the future.

As for what the magic element is, it's too mysterious to know, so we can only hypothesize about it.

I'm guessing that it's probably a pico-machine, even smaller than a nanomachine. A very small machine made up of subatomic particles. If it's that small, it's in the realm of quantum physics, so I think it could cause supernatural phenomena like the ones that act on molecules and atoms. Well, I can't and won't prove or verify it, so I'll leave that to future generations of scholars.

The "magic flashbang" is a technique to strike the opponent's fear out of control by throwing the magic power with "killing intent". No, it was.

Recently, the command to feed the magic power is not "killing intent" but "make the target's cerebral blood vessels atrophy for 10 seconds". They are blocking the blood flow to the brain, causing the victim to faint from lack of acidity and nutrition.

By giving specific commands to the magic power in this way, we can more effectively deprive it of consciousness. In other words, the effect is the same, but it's now a different technique. I won't change the name because it's too cumbersome.

However, this technique also has its limitations. It's the amount of magical power your opponent has.

All creatures in this world, no matter how big or small, all have magical power.

And this magical power is not only used to activate magic, but also seems to serve as a barrier to prevent others from interfering with it.

If you think about it, it's only natural that you would go crazy if you were to receive all the miscellaneous information that the magical elements floating around everywhere have at all times. It's a way of protecting yourself by wearing a magical power that only accepts your commands. It's a self-preservation function that life has acquired.

You have to take this magical power into account when you activate the magic flashbang. This means you have to bombard your opponent with more magic than they have. Otherwise, you won't be able to break through the defense.

But normally, in this world where neither appraisals nor status inspections are available, it is impossible to know the magic power held by the target. The only person who can know exactly what it is is is Kristella, who has a balance spell. So if you want to use a magic flashbang, you need to always emit it with near full magical power. It's not a problem if you have a lot of it, but if you don't have enough, it won't be effective. So, once you use it, you won't be able to use magic for a while. This is too inefficient.

It's not a good idea to have a good time with them. In addition, I have a non-standard amount of magical power, so I can break through most opponents' defenses. After all, I've been training since I was an infant. I've done quite a bit of recklessness.

That's why I'm able to use the magic flash bang somewhat efficiently. It's somehow efficient. I'm a cheat, even if I am.

I took a room at a rather fancy inn on the main street, dropped my bags off, and headed for the Adventurer's Guild. As the head of a noble family, I should probably stay at a top-class hotel, but I didn't have a choice since they didn't allow servants. I don't want to stay there unless I'm with Woo-chan.

By the way, I've left Taroziro in charge of the children's group. They understand that they are the lowest in the house, so they obey the children's instructions without hesitation. Don't worry about leaving them with me.

On the way to the Adventurer's Guild, I enjoy the miscellaneous streets of the ancient city.

I'm not sure if that's the lord's house over there. It's a bit of a castle.

I mutter to myself as I look at the building at the top of the winding boulevard, on a gentle climb.

The lord's house that can be seen beyond the wooden and stone houses that look like a German countryside is also a stone building that looks like a German castle. To be frank, it looks like a Cariosto0 castle, with a spire that looks like a princess would be held captive. You could run down from that roof and jump to ......!　Let's try this evening in secret.

Lana was originally the capital of an independent country. You will find out that the former royal family became marquises when it was incorporated into the kingdom. It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

Huh. One of the three princes rules here? What family?

The Marquis de Yumina. The former head of the family is retired for some reason, and the current head of the family is supposed to be the four-year-old Heinz de Yumina, who was the former head's legitimate son in law.

You're young.

I heard that you have an aide from the royal castle, so I'm sure you have no problems running your domain.

Kristella smiles bitterly. As expected, there is no shortage of information related to the nobility. I wonder how they collect it?　Do you have a secret network or something?

The former head of the family's "problems" must be related to the attempted coup d'etat of the second prince. I'm sure there was a marquis family that sided with the second prince, and that was the Yumina family.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea for you to be able to get a good idea of what's going on, but I think it's a good idea for you to be able to get a good idea of what's going on. I'm sure they thought it would be too confusing to change the marquis' family. So they took away only the real power.

I'm sure you'll be able to get a good idea of what's really going on, even if it's only on the surface. That's also the reason for Kristella's bitter smile. I'm not sure I'm going to be the only one.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. It's expensive.

The National Academy and the National Institute of Magical Tools are located under that tower. I heard that the magical tools developed by Jarkin are also transported there. I heard that the research is being carried out in a secretive manner.

Kristella makes another implied statement. It's information that would normally end in 'hmm' if you listen to it, but we know too many things.

What Cristela is trying to say is, 'There are supposed to be guns in the lab, and we can't find out from the outside how they are managed. It could have been used in the last king's shooting.

Well, here we have a nobleman with a grudge against the current king (backhandedly) and a weapon that can be used for assassination. There's a strong smell of suspicion in the air.

In addition, there is even a mysterious criminal organization (committee) in this town.

Apparently, a black conspiracy is spreading behind the clean stone pavement and ancient streets.

I'd like to think it's the cold March wind blowing down from the mountains that sent a chill down my spine.
