"So... the magic stone found inside Carlos's body didn't function as a nucleus?

"I'm sure that's true. If so, it wouldn't be strange to move like an immortal when Carlos dies. But that didn't happen."

"What, so after all, it was wrong to say that there was a nucleus inside the body?"

"I don't know yet. Perhaps there is a core Magic Stone in your body when you become the owner of a larger aristocracy. You don't know that unless you actually look into it, do you?

"No, then it seems to have been told that there are such things in the grand aristocracy for generations. But in that case, the human experiment of embedding magic stones in the body doesn't seem to make much sense."

"... but I can't say that, my comrade. There was a slight change in what was implanted with the Magic Stone."

"Change?"

"Actually, when I took out the magic stone inside my body and checked it, the color changed. It's darker blue than it was when it was embedded."

So the Magic Stone was absorbing magic. I wonder if you've been doing some really nasty experiments. I suppose that's an experiment with the consent of the subject, right?

"Of course I do."

If so, does the subject know about the experiment? The fact that magic stones were embedded in the body. "

"No, the explanation only tells me that I have an incision to examine my abdomen and that I will re-incise it after a certain period of time. You didn't realize the Magic Stone was in your body. It may have felt the most uncomfortable."

I don't suppose you've already given your consent.

It's pretty bad enough to lie down with complete intent.

But I'll tell Meem about it later.

Rather, the facts found in this experiment were more important.

According to Meem, the color of magic stones became darker for people who were to live with magic stones embedded in their bodies without exception.

That means the Magic Stone absorbed the magic.

Well, that's not so weird in itself.

Because I usually use Magic Injection to refill Magic Stones with reduced magic residue in Balka.

Even if the magic stone captured in my body was not used by spells, even if it was said that I naturally absorbed the magic of that person, I thought that there was only such a thing.

But the memes are different.

Because in addition to the color of the Magic Stone, the meme focused on where the subject had seen a change.

This meant that the amount of magic leaking out of the body seemed to have decreased.

Many people always create magic in their bodies and live with it leaking out like hot air.

This is true for both ordinary men and knights.

Unless I take a way to block the magic that leaks out of my body, such as the spell I created called "meditation," it will drift unconsciously.

However, the subjects of this experiment said that the amount of magic leaked decreased.

In other words, the magic created in the body was absorbed by the Magic Stone before it leaked out of the body.

That's how Meem hypothesized it.

"Well, maybe that's what happened. But what's bothering you so much?

"Of course, my comrade. Do you have any idea how much this is? Then let's ask such a comrade. Why don't you define your personal realm?

"Yes? Region? What are you talking about, Meem? What about the Magic Stone?"

"Just answer me. Where do you recognize your body from?

"What do you mean, where does my body come from? From the top of your head to the tip of your feet, from one hair to a drop of blood, it's all part of my body."

"What if a magic stone is embedded in your body? Is that part of your body? Or is the magic stored in that magic stone yours?

"... hey, is that possible that the magic inside the magic stone in your body will be recognized as the total magic amount of that person? In other words, it only has the effect of increasing the total amount of magic stone stored in it...."

"Well, comrades are quick to understand. That's what I thought."

"Seriously. So what happens when you use it on knights instead of ordinary people? Can I use Atmos Wall if I bury the Magic Stone in a magic amount that I can use but can't use Atmos Wall and accumulate magic in that Magic Stone?

"Fufu, I don't know. It's been an interesting study for my comrades, isn't it?

"No, it's definitely a study that interests me. If that's the case, it's hard. You can't sell magic stones. You have to keep this information secret."

"... oh, I see. Sure, Magic Stones were handled in bulk and sold to the Linzats. But I think it's okay."

"What do you mean you're okay? If the Lindsatz family finds out about this, they'll do it. The most powerful aristocracy will stand out. It's a big defense issue."

"Don't worry about that. This experiment was both a success and a failure."

"Failure? What do you mean?

"The Magic Stones didn't settle down. It's strange. After surgery, it was left without re-incision, and at some point it gradually dissolved and became smaller in the body, and eventually disappeared. As a result, the total amount of magic gained will be restored when the magic stone is gone."

"Ah? What is it? That's the big deal. It didn't mean anything after all."

"What are you talking about? Failure is the mother of success. This experiment finally gave me valuable information. That's what makes sense."

"But if it eventually disappears, it will be information that cannot be used very effectively. Damn, I'm a little excited, but I feel like I'm losing it."

"I'm not in such a hurry to conclude. Have you forgotten? In the experiment, the magic stones that were placed in the body did disappear after a certain period of time. But there are magic stones that didn't disappear."

"... I see. There were magic stones left in Carlos's body. No, but it's not like the embedded Magic Stone. Rather, was it really a magic stone in the first place?

"Mm-hmm. That's still something to look at. From what I checked, it was definitely a magic stone that contained magic. However, it cannot be determined whether this is the same Magic Stone created by the Vulcan Knight. That's why I wanted my comrades to see this. The Magic Stone of Carlos."

That's why Meem took out the box.

When I opened the lid of the box, the inside was stuffed with a soft cloth.

And when I carefully removed the cloth, it came out from the inside.

It is a blue stone that has become rounded and slightly Shizukuishi.

Did something like this happen in Carlos' body?

Observe even better with that in mind.

The Shizukuishi blue stone does contain magic.

That's a lot, too.

However, I was a little concerned about the amount of magic contained in it.

I felt that the amount of magic was too large for a stone the size of my thumb.

The other magic stones I saw were only immortal bone dragons.

And I succeeded in creating the Magic Stone by [preserving memory] the Immortal Bone Dragon Magic Stone.

However, the magic stones made there had a maximum amount of magic depending on their size.

If you want to use more magic, you need to increase the size of the Magic Stone.

By the way, if you use the Magic Stone Generation spell that can be used by the Barca Knight, you can create a Crystal the size of which is wrapped in the palm of your hand, but it's all the same size.

The only way to make a Magic Stone is if I use magic manipulation instead of spells.

But with my magic stone, Shizukuishi Magic Stone contains an amount of magic that is too big for my thumb.

If you think so, it is likely that it is slightly different.

I called out to the meme and reached out to the Shizukuishi Magic Stone.

That's how I snap.

[Memory Storage] and.

Thus, I succeeded in accurately remembering the Shizukuishi magic stone that existed in Carlos' body in my brain.

... I don't know what to do.

I was angry with Meem, but I was very concerned.

If you bury this Shizukuishi Magic Stone in your body, will it disappear in the same way, or will it continue to remain?

I was a little worried, but perhaps the conclusion was decided from the beginning.

Let's do it.

If there is a problem, it is then.

Meem did it all by herself, but let's escape.

In this way, I became involved as an accomplice in Meem's human experiments under the name of collaborative work.
