Let's Manage The Tower
(2) Weaknesses of magic equipment
Tobi thought that Luka's magic equipment, which should have fallen to a practical level, had a fatal flaw.
Speaking of which, I needed a lot of magic to move the magic equipment.
Specifically, magicians who can use magic gather around 100 people every day and pour magic on their magic equipment.
The pitfalls here are that if a city has as many people as a city, it is easy to gather that amount of magic.
There is a flaw that Tobi and Luca did not realize until Tova was pushed into Kaiseki and Floria.
In the first place, in a city with that many magicians, we don't need borders to defend ourselves from monster attacks.
Because there are enough fighters to be adventurers to defend the city.
You don't need the magic equipment you're thinking about because you can hold down monsters with the number of fighters.
Towa was delighted and brave enough to ask Kaosuke and Floria about this magical instrument because of the ambitions that the inhabitants of the Central Continent had been challenging since before Lazequa Mamiya was founded.
The ambition is to become a village and a town in the interior of the continent.
However, it has never been successful since people migrated to the Central continent.
Of course, I've sent trailblazers over and over again to try and settle them, but they've all been crushed by monster raids.
Thanks to this, the people of the Central Continent only exist on land along the sea.
For this reason, magic equipment that can protect a certain range from monsters is what the inhabitants of the Central Continent wanted above all else.
It is natural for Towa to come to Kaiseki and Floria with an unusual excitement.
"... did you miss out on the results?"
Twa murmured as she lowered her shoulders.
After all, sending pioneers to the interior to create villages and towns has limited initial numbers.
Even if Toby took the magic equipment he devised, he couldn't maintain it, and it was still visible that it would end up like this.
For the same reason, we cannot create a magic supply facility.
Creating such a facility, which has not yet been successfully miniaturized, in a place with only a small number of settlers, cannot be maintained.
As King of Lazequa Mamiya, Towa, who was expected to expand inland, naturally experienced a significant drop in expectations.
Tobi and Luca have an unspeakable face against the toe.
When I saw it, I thought this was no good, but I talked to Towa.
"Twa, I don't think you need to be so depressed.
"No, but..."
"I know the problem, so I just need to improve it. The development of magic tools is such a thing."
Towa recovered slightly after the auxiliary examination that she dared to say lightly.
Towa was depressed enough to forget such a basic thing.
However, Floria, who was still worried about Towa's depression, turned a strange look.
"Somehow, it's not like Towa. What's the rush... oh, I see."
Floria nodded convincingly, turning her gaze from Towa to Tobi.
Not only is it possible to enter the interior, but we have found another reason for Twa's joy.
You were going to tell me that Toby was the trigger for the magic equipment development.
Floria, who understood Towa's thoughts, now had a sympathetic look.
Tobi has already been proclaimed the prince of Razekamamiah.
As a result, no one is currently out to fight for power in vain using his brother Jun.
In the first place, Razek Amamiya has a strong awareness of the country created by the gods of the real world, and because there are few nobles who can give their opinion to the royal family, there is no one who can do extra things.
That's why Toby's position is not always safe.
Of course, if Tobi's abilities are extremely low the more he is questioned about his qualifications as King, Tois may also take up his powers as Prince of Tobi.
However, Tobi has no such defect at all.
Therefore, it is natural for Towa to take various measures to create Tobi's position as much as possible.
If Tobi were to be involved in the development of magic tools for the successful progress to the interior, it would be too effective for him to be the next king.
It was against this background that Towa's joy and appreciation of the magic equipment clouded his eyes.
Tois is definitely a human child.
After listening to Florian's words, she was satisfied with the exam.
"Oh, I see. I thought it was unusual for Towa to be so detached."
"There's no other way. I might have reacted the same way if I was hanging something like that."
"Hmm, development of the interior is so important."
"Hmm. If it succeeds, it will definitely be a great achievement for the country."
With that said, Floria nodded and replied unexpectedly.
It is not that I am not interested in the achievements of Tobi and Towa as royalty, and the development of the inland area is only of such value to Kaiseki.
There is a reason why the examiner has so little interest.
"Hmm. Then I don't know why you're in such a hurry."
If your achievements as a country are great, you can take your time without haste.
Floria frowned when she thought so.
"No, were you listening? In this case, it is important to make it a feat for Tobi..."
"Oh, no, I'm sorry. The way you put it - or the way you took it with you - was wrong. After all, there are still a few years until Toby graduates from school, so why don't we finish improving by then?
"... what?
Floria asked after being slightly stunned.
Until then, I was surprised by the words of the examiner.
In fact, Towa has solidified with her eyes wide open.
Florian's astonishing gaze continued, pointing to the materials written by the magic team.
"If this is how well the theory is assembled, I think we can make improvements that reduce magic consumption? Well, there's a condition that it takes a certain amount of time."
And finally, I said, "Hey? When Kaiseki turned to Luka, he looked like he was confused.
"I think I have to, but until Toby graduates..."
"No, if you can only imagine this, you can also think about magic consumption.... I'm sure it's not easy, but how about deciding it's impossible?
To Luca, who had said so honestly, Kaiseki answered looking at Tobi.
In the words of Kaiseki, Towa looked as if she had found the light of hope.
"Really? Can you do that?
"Well, yes. There is absolutely no magic tool development. I can't say for sure, but I think it's worth a try.
Rather than being irresponsible, Kaiseki replied with confidence.
And Floria, who was looking at it, laughed and said to Twa.
"On the assumption that Tobi will do whatever he likes, it is also one of the choices to be involved in the improvement of this magic instrument. This is how it works."
Looking at the current attitude of the assistant student, Floria knew that she was confident that the magic equipment improvement would succeed.
I am not convinced that I can do this because I do not think that I can decide the future of my children (grandchildren) by myself.
In that case, Floria decided that she should say words that would gently push her back, and she said so to Towa.
