"Hey, kid. You're gonna leave that big rock there?

"You mean Atmosphere, old man? That's right... for now, I'll leave it behind Balka Castle. It's unexpectedly stable, but I think we should just reinforce it so it doesn't fall down."

"No, that's not what I heard. Well, we need reinforcements. But isn't that a spiritual symbol for a warrior like Tanatos or Atmos? All right, just leave it in Balka."

"Hmm, I might complain, but Tanatos gave me permission. He said that if you leave it in Atmos, you can relocate it because it's going to destroy Brilliant Magic Land."

"Well, you might say that now, but maybe later you'll change your mind or the other giants will say something else?

"Indeed. Well, let's think about it then. Instead, I'm thinking about using Atmosphere now."

"Utilize? Can that big stone be used for something?

"Hey, don't you notice, old man? Don't you think the air here has changed since we relocated that Atmosphere to Vulcania?

"Air? If you say so, it certainly feels like something has changed. I thought it was my fault...."

"There's no mistake. It's probably the same as the nucleus of the labyrinth. And the presence of the labyrinth nucleus also affects the surroundings. And it's the same after the transfer. In other words, the magic concentration in Vulcania is gradually rising."

"... is that the same as the core of the labyrinth? Does that mean that just being near that rock in Vulcania will create the same environment as living in the Labyrinth?

The negotiations with Charlotte were successfully concluded and Charlotte's men were given magic by name.

Afterwards, the Eastern Expeditionaries retreated from Atmos' village to the variant.

Charlotte will report to the King of the Brillian Magic Land, who will be in his country, but he is supposed to have formally negotiated with me by exercising his right to be the local governor.

Incidentally, according to Charlotte's report, there was no battle between the Oriental Expeditionary Army and the Atmos Rear Guard.

It appears that an army of the nation appeared and fought together beyond the spiritual peak during the battle against the invading Atmos warrior.

Afterwards, he and I had a meeting, and we made a treaty to provide each other with this and the other technology.

This means that the Kingdom of Fontana and the Brillian Magic Nation have not been hostile from the outset, nor have they engaged in combat activities, and they have benefited from each other only through peaceful discussions.

If this wasn't the east across the snowy mountains, I might not have admitted such a report to the other nobles in the west.

But I don't really care what kind of treatment this is going to be if it's over there.

After all, we just have to fight over here, win brilliantly, and rumor that we got the loot.

That's why the Eastern Expeditionaries rest in variants, while I return to Vulcania.

Then the old man told me that he was doing a little chores at Barca Castle.

Apparently, the old man thought that Atmosphere, which suddenly appeared just near Barca Castle, could be relocated again just temporarily.

He just told me to get out of the way because he was in the way.

Or maybe it was a statement thinking about Atmos's warriors.

But I didn't mean to.

I intend to leave it in Vulcania as it is.

Currently, Tanatos and Lyla remain in their eastern variants.

For the time being, I've decided to use the variants as a base to find out if Atmos warriors survive.

If I find one, I'll call it a variant, and if I want, I'll bring it to Vulcania with a transfer stone.

In other words, Vulcania could become a new home for Atmos warriors in the future.

We may be able to expand the city and set up a new Atmos district for them.

Then let Barca perform Tanatos' ritual in front of the protected Atmosphere.

Perhaps that will leave the Titan Genealogy behind.

But I wasn't just going to accept Atmos warriors, I was going to use Atmosphere as well.

My aim is to strengthen the residents of Vulcania.

Immediately after I relocated Atmosphere, I was also thinking of the possibility that I might lose my powers as a Spirit Stone in another new land.

However, after a while, it appears that Atmosphere has become accustomed to a land called Vulcania.

Around Atmosphere, the labyrinth nucleus, magic concentrations are increasing throughout Vulcania.

And I'm going to use that magic.

This idea was inspired by the thought of Lyla, the warrior of Atmos.

Lila has the same power as Tanatos as Atmos as a warrior and can be made into a giant.

And the power was comparable to what we call the current class.

But it doesn't seem like anything special.

I've heard that Lyla is quite strong among Atmos warriors.

In other words, almost all of Atmos's warriors are the most powerful of their class, i.e., the most magically powerful.

This has been a question for some time.

Because neither Tanatos nor Lyla use the church's naming ritual to receive magic from others and raise their magic amount.

In other words, as an individual, the amount of magic has reached the main level.

This may be related to the culture of the East.

Because Charlotte, the princess of the Brilliant Magic Land, also said that the royal family had married a man and a woman with a lot of magic and had given birth to a child with a lot of magic in the next generation.

It is a culture that the Doren royal family did not have on this side of the country.

Due to the transfer of magic by the church and inheritance rituals, there were basically few women with a lot of magic here.

It was decided by the Doren royal family and the church so that there would be more men in the current class.

In Atmos, however, there was a slight difference between the Brillian Magic Land and the Kingdom of Doren.

Thanks to the labyrinth nucleus called Atmosphere in the village, the concentration of magic was much higher than in other lands.

And the Atmos warriors have lived on such lands for so long.

The labyrinth is said to increase the magic of those who are present when the magic concentration is deep.

In other words, the same phenomenon occurred in the deep labyrinth of Atmos.

Atmos warriors, who are always born and raised in Atmos with a high concentration of magic, both men and women become more magical, and children born in the area marry each other and have more children.

I wonder if that flow has been going on for generations, and even without a naming ceremony like Tanatos or Lyla, we have gained the strength of the current class.

If the hypothesis is correct, the same could be done in Vulcania.

With Atmosphere, which increases the magic concentration of the whole city of Vulcania, the people who live here will be stronger.

That's not all.

We can use that medicine we got when we invaded Labyrinth City before.

There is a medicine called a magic penetrant based on the magic grass that Kyle reproduced.

In Labyrinth City, Explorers lurking in the Labyrinth were given magic penetrants by the Explorers' Association.

By drinking this, I was able to increase his magic even more when he entered the Labyrinth, and it also had the effect of [unlocking abilities] of House Tiers.

In other words, if you live in Vulcania, take magic penetrants, and train your soldiers, more people will have more magic than ever before.

Now, there are many people in the Fontana kingdom who are in the current class, but most of them are just me embedding Shizukuishi magic stones in my body to increase my magic amount simultaneously.

Otherwise, we may be able to increase the number of competent people in the original sense.

I was telling the old man that story as I watched Atmosphere outside the window of Barca Castle.
