"Hmm, so you couldn't find the magic item after all."

That's what Elaine says as she talks about what happened today while dining in the garden of the Marina house the night the demolition of Giganto Turtle took place.

Faces like Marina, Vihera and Ara also point their slightly dazed gaze at Ray...... Ray nods without looking particularly concerned.

"Oh. For now, I'm pretty sure there was no such thing as a magic item within what I looked for today. I thought Seto's five senses would find some clue... too bad."

Saying so, Ray looks at Seto running around the garden with a yellow on his back.

I wish I had a magic item in my original act.

So even if I can't find that this time, I don't see how I particularly cared.

"Um, but honestly, I care. What the hell means can I use to manipulate a cobolt like that... if it's not a magic item, then something else... isn't that some sort of ritual or something?

"Is Arla a ritualist? Then I... right. Let's call it skill."

"Dear Elaine, isn't skill a bit impossible...?

"Really? That's what skills are all about. It's a special ability for people who can't use magic to use magic, so maybe it's really a skill."

Ara gives an incredible look to Marina's words.

Ara can't use magic, and she doesn't have enough magic to make her skills.

I guess that's why I'm not sure about the area.

... Ara's rigidity is probably like skill in a way.

Because the power that doesn't match its appearance is enough to wield a greater power axe than a normal axe.

"Hmmm...... then I guess I vote for a rare or superior species"

"No, in the case of Vihela, you just want to fight a strong monster. In the first place, I don't think you can expect a Kobolt to be the base, no matter how superior or rare it is."

Only Vihera, who prefers to fight, was that a strong choice, rather than an expectation, to want it to be.

Most importantly, if you're going to say that, Ray, because you want a magic item, you expect to be collecting cobolts with a magic item, so you can never say anything about people.

"In the end, you don't know what's causing Kobolt's repeated raids unless you actually look into it.... Marina, don't you know anything about spiritual magic?

"Um, Elaine. You can't do anything with spiritual magic, can you?

It was a marina that told me that along with a little shuddering, but if I try Ray, who was listening on the side, I feel a little sorry for him.

If possible, it's because I was wondering if you could find out if the Marina had any leads with Spirit Magic.

But you noticed how Ray was, and now Marina turns a mixed glance at Ray as well.

"What, Ray. Could it be that Ray was also trying to get Spirit Magic to look into the Kobolt thing?

"Uh... no, it's not. I thought you forgot to give the marinas the souvenirs of Anesis."

To the pursuit of the marina, if you say so, I tell you so remembering what happened during the day today, that I had not yet given you a souvenir.

In praise of himself for remembering the souvenirs during today's day, Ray takes the gems out of the mistering.

It's a white gem.

Among the souvenirs of Anesis, it should also be called eyeballs.

... There are a lot of other souvenirs out there, but I guess Ray was still in a hurry to get the last gem out of it that he should have taken out.

"Oh, gems? And white gems are rare.... Ray, what's this gem?

At first it was a marina that looked and seemed rare to me, but when I took one of those jewels in my hand, I guess I understood that was not a normal jewel. Point your slightly harsh gaze at Ray and ask.

"Oh, you see?... Yes, that's not a regular gem. It's a kind of... right, you can say it's a magic item. Its white gemstone contains healing magic and is disposable only once, but instantly healing magic can be used"

Gems, magic.

On that keyword, Bühne's movement, who was silently eating the dish, stops.

If it was just one of them, Beaune wouldn't have cared either.

But if those two came together, the story would be different.

Because it... it involves the last of Bühne's parents.

Parents sacrificed by a certain madman.

The madman's need for sacrifice was due to a substitute that should also be called gem magic.

"... n"

Low...... but a grunt with a strong will.

Hearing that whine, Ray opens his mouth without surprise as to whether he had anticipated Bühne's reaction.

And then, having understood what Bühne wanted to say, he opens his mouth.

"That's right. The restorative magic enclosed in this gem is a substitute for what Büne thinks it is....... BUT!

Substitutes as you think. Towards Ray, who said so, Biune even tries to throw a long needle half-reflexively... a strong word out of Ray's mouth stills the movement.

"Mmm."

Ray was relieved by that grunt he was told to encourage him to get ahead of the story.

If it's a Bühne attack, it's not hard to avoid, even if it's from sitting down.

But the fact that Büne stopped moving in Ray's words before such a rough event meant that Büne hadn't completely put blood on his head yet.

Taking such a cautious attitude in one case involving gem magic would be a testament to the fact that Bühne is also growing more than before.

... Though I usually say it's a beaune with no expression, and now I'm staring at Ray with a harsh glance at where that expression went.

Ray opens his mouth so as to calm down such a beaune.

"Ready? First of all, the technology to seal magic in this gem... is based, as you might think, on the technology developed by Prix."

The word prix makes Bühne's gaze even more severe.

The name of a direct parent's vendetta came up, so I guess that's natural, too.

I guess Bühne is also somewhat calm that he still doesn't attack reflexively, as he did earlier.

"This technology comes from Prix... no, it's what nobles of the aristocracy acquired and developed the technology that the Marchelles had. But, naturally, it's not acceptable to sacrifice people, so you can feel safe around it."

To the term Ray's aristocratic nobility, Büne turns her gaze to Elaine, but soon again looks at Ray to encourage her to get ahead of the story.

Has it changed from a harsh look to a serious look earlier, thanks to the fact that I once sandwiched the act of seeing Elaine in between?

... or because Vihella stroked its back to calm down Bühne?

(In this case, should I not give the name of Lemuria?... Seeing how Bühne is, if you do poorly, you don't necessarily imitate going to see Remlia in person)

Bühne is a bandit, but he's not good at gathering information from that personality.

No, even if you're good at gathering information by trying to eavesdrop on people's stories to be exact, you're not good at acting like you're gathering certain information from yourself.

Though it may be more natural than just saying 'n' originally.

More than that, it was Ray's decision that it would be difficult to get to that name if Lemuria's name were not given here.

But if there is a Vihela who can generally understand what Bühne is trying to say, maybe it's something else.

"So, are you sure that jewel doesn't require sacrifice?

Not instead of Bühne, but Vihella asks Ray.

"I didn't see the scene where I made this jewel in person, but that's what I hear from the person who gave it to me."

"Hey, that's..."

If that person was lying, it wouldn't make sense.

Yes, says Vihera.

In fact, what Vihera says is not wrong, and it would also have to do with the poor impression on the aristocratic nobility.

Anyway, Vihella hasn't forgotten that there are aristocrats like Elaine and Arla who have tried to disrupt the construction of the Gilm's additions.

More than that, it was only natural that Vihella's impression of the nobility would be worse.

"Don't worry. The person who made this gem is not the kind of person who lies. I'll guarantee that."

To Elaine's words, who knows Lemuria, Vihera... and Büne were also slightly disapproved, but convinced.

"For that reason, there is the effect of keeping sacrifices from being used when enclosing magic in this gem. Specifically, this gem is a one-time disposable."

The gemstone magic used by Prix in the battle had released magic from the same gemstone over and over again.

I guess there were actually usable times, but from the feeling Ray was fighting for at least a dozen times, it seemed like he could use magic.

In that sense, the gems that Ray put out on the table are clearly degrading in the sense of performance.

… but it means a lot only in terms of the number of uses and does not require sacrifices.

If it is to be sold out to a large extent, the benefit is particularly great.

If you use sacrifice to make it, you can't imitate it and sell it like that first, but if you can make gem magic without sacrifice, it had no problem selling it.... knowing where the big book of that technology came from and what it was like would also make you feel bad.

".................. n"

After a few seconds of silence, such a small voice finally comes out of Bühne's mouth.

I guess I wasn't entirely convinced by Ray's explanation.

But you understood that you still couldn't complain.

In fact, if this gem were put up for sale, it would be a beneficial substitute for adventurers...... no, that is definitely for soldiers, knights, merchants, and all sorts of others.

It would be expensive to use gems, so it would not be so easy to buy.

"Whatever... I've explained it a lot, but this is a magic item that can sometimes use immediate healing magic. Take it."

Saying so, Ray places white gems in front of the three marinas, Vihera and Bühne, respectively.

I also thought it might seem like harassment in a way to give this gem to Bühne, but the least combative of the Red Lotus wings led by Ray at present is Bühne.

It was also necessary to imitate such things as checking on the enemy just in advance of the profession of banditry, and considering that, it was necessary that Bühne had the means to recover.

Of course I have the potion kind, but given the size of the gem, it doesn't hurt to keep it.

That's obviously easier to use than potions at times of need.

"... n"

Does Beaune know that, too, even with a complicated look on his face of the gem Ray puts before him?

Only the usually faceless Bühne, whose complex expression unnecessarily represented the inner heart of Bühne.

When Bühne thus takes the jewel, both Marina and Vihera take the jewel.

"Nevertheless, you recover. Can I have this?

I turned my gaze to Ray and asked him about the marina, which is in charge of recovery by water spiritual magic in the wings of the Red Lotus.

Ray nods back naturally against such a marina.

"Even the spiritual magic of the marina can recover, but it'll take some time, won't it? This can be recovered immediately. I don't think we can do that if we get fatally injured."

"I guess. The magic felt from this gem is not that great."

In the sense that it can still be activated immediately, gemstone magic is a very useful substitute.

"This, if it's actually put up for sale, it'll sell pretty good, won't it?

"Definitely, it will sell."

To the words of Vihella, Marina answers that immediately.

"Personally, it would help if I could seal my magic in an unsealed gem."

The best neck in using magic is, naturally, the chant of the spell.

But if you can do things like seal up magic, that means you can use magic instantly without using the chant of a spell.

"That sounds interesting... can you?

"Well, I don't know. I wish I could in the future."

That's what Ray said to Vihera.
