Nihonkoku Shoukan (WN)

Gaiden 1 Contact with Japan (Kawatoine)

Summoned in Japan: Gaiden 1

Set the time slightly back.

Principality of Quatine Foreign Affairs Bureau ―――

This place, which interacts with many nations, is currently preparing for dispatch of missions in preparation for opening diplomatic relations with emerging emerging countries and Japan.

"Yago! You're going to an emerging nation like Japan as one of your missions! It's enviable. I want to go there too."

1 One of your colleagues talks. Dispatch missions are not uncommon. In a world where there are many nations, it is not uncommon for sovereigns to change places and names to change, but this is common in medium-sized nations.

Furthermore, it is not unusual for large nations to split into small and medium sized nations.

However···.

In many cases, security was poor, and it was not unusual for victims to appear on missions, and it was a job everyone disliked to work on dispatching missions.

Furthermore, the continent of Rodinius, where the Principality of Qauteine is, is somewhat affected by the Third Civilization, and is called `` barbarian '' by the civilization. He maintains a high standard of living and eats as good as civilized nations.

In the target areas where missions are dispatched, the standard of living is often much lower than that of the Principality of Qauteine, there are also problems with hygiene, many missions are infected with plague, and security is poor in most cases.

However, the countries to which this mission is dispatched have received a lot of attention.

A quick look at the pre-distribution materials distributed to the dispatched missions reveals that they are incredible.

The incident began on the morning of January 24, 1639, when a kart from the sixth flying dragon squadron, Marpatima, discovered a flying dragon believed to be made of metal during an alert flight over the sea northeast of the Principality. However, he was pulled apart without catching up at all.

In addition, the sixth flying dragon squadron, which set out to intercept the iron dragon, was said to have been separated without being caught in the range of Wyvern's weapon, a conducting flame bullet.

In a report, it was completely incredible that the speed was over 600 km / h.

And despite the fact that the opponent is much larger than here.

In addition, the first contact from the sea came from a giant 230m class ship with no unimaginable metal sails.

"I can't believe ..."

Yago is thinking.

Speaking of Wyvern, it is an expensive weapon. The Dragon Knight is the elite of the elite.

Knights of the cavalry are superior to infantry, and dragon knights are overwhelmingly superior to knights, and a single Wyvern can play with the Knights.

Flying at a high speed of 230 km / h and flying from a high altitude where the bow does not reach, Wyvern's own fired flare released by magic isolated from humans has power comparable to weapons created by humans, In addition, the hard scales bounce off the bow and are so strong that they do not pass through anti-personal knives.

Speaking of more powerful creatures than Wyvern, I can only imagine the Wyvern Road, which is said to be made in a small number in the three major civilizations.

No, there are various types of dragons, old dragons, and dragons that can't be controlled by humans, but humans deal with dreams, dreams, and natural disasters.

It would be impossible for Mu in the second civilized sphere to commercialize an “thing” that surpasses Wyvern and fly an unusually large flying object.

I can't believe it, but it is true that a Japanese flight has landed over the economic city of My Hark, and he has become very interested in Japan.

(Dispatch of this mission ... I might make a name in history ...)

"Start a meeting now"

Unexpectedly, his thoughts were interrupted by command.

In a small meeting room, the leader of the mission starts explaining. The delegation dispatched this time has five members, all of whom have the title of Foreign Affairs Bureau, but General Hanki of the Military Affairs Bureau has also been dispatched to the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

The leader begins to talk.

"Our primary objective this time is to determine if Japan is a threat to our country. As you know, our air defense network was easily broken by a Japanese iron dragon.

At present, there is no means to prevent Iron Dragon in Japan.

Currently, Japan has expressed its intention to establish diplomatic relations with Japan, but it is honest that we do not understand what we are thinking.

It is necessary to investigate the true meaning of whether he is a hegemonic nation or has an extreme sense of discrimination against sub-humans like Louria, and what he is trying to make diplomatic relations with. "

Everyone nods

"I don't know how big Japan is, but it seems to have a high level of military skills. As such, be careful with your actions.

One more point, Japan wants to find out what is strong and what is weak, and look for a part where we can take advantage of them.

I want to see the resume that was distributed to everyone. ''

Look through the newly distributed materials.

One eyebrow of the mission goes up.

Transfer every country? ?

Explanation starts.

"I'm surprised, but they say that the whole nation was suddenly jumped into this world.

That's true. One of Japan's alleged territories is the archipelago, but the sea currents and winds are turbulent, once unmanned.

Even if an emerging nation is suddenly established, it is unlikely that sudden civilization will grow.

Transitions from country to country ... like a myth of Mu.

Mu, the power of the second civilization, has a myth that the continental transition occurred 12,000 years ago.

It remains a formal government record, believed by the Mu people, but was perceived by other civilized people as just a fairy tale.

"According to the Japanese side, as the resume states, this time Japan will provide transportation and ships.

Departure a week later in the afternoon.

And in the evening, two days after departure, we land in Fukuoka, a city located on the western side of Japan, and stay for three nights at an inn. At a lodge in Fukuoka, you will learn the common sense of acting in Japan. According to the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, if you go out without your knowledge of Japan's common sense, you may be killed by being stepped on by something like a carriage called a car.

Five days after landing, departure from Fukuoka City in the afternoon, using a transportation system called the Shinkansen, and in the evening of that day, we will be in Tokyo, the capital of Japan, and the next day, we will have talks with people of the Government of Japan. ''

...?

Funny, time series is strange. According to a handout, in the evening two days after departure, you will reach a regional city on the island south of Japan. However, Japan and the Principality of Quatine are more than 1000 km apart. It is not the distance to arrive in just two days by boat.

What's more, the distance from Fukuoka City to Tokyo is slightly over 1,000 km, but it's going to be in the afternoon and arrive in the evening.

I understand the story of the iron dragon that appeared in the sky over Japan, but the handout says that the Shinkansen is a vehicle that runs on the ground.

It looks like a country where our common sense doesn't work.

The meeting is over.

One week later

The missions were gathered at the port of Maihak, the largest in the Principality of Kwatoine.

Sunny ――――――

The clouds are high, the clear blue sky spreads, and it is a bit cool.

The man in the suit starts talking.

"To all of you, I am very pleased that you can come to Japan today as a mission. I am a Japanese Foreign Affair who was dispatched to make your dispatch a little more comfortable. It is Taue of the ministry.

So-called caretaker.

If you have any inconvenience, please tell us. "

Meanwhile, one delegation member with a depressing face

"Is it a voyage from now ..."

"General Hanki, your complexion is not good, what happened?"

"Yagou, now serving at the Foreign Affairs Bureau, please stop the general!"

"I understand. Then, Hanki-sama, what did you do?"

"No, I think I'm going to be a cruise from now on, I'm too nervous ... The cruise isn't good. I don't know when I'm going to capsize, and there's no light in the boat, so it's dark and humid. In addition, many people get plagued on long journeys, and eat only salty foods because they have only preserved foods so that their eaters do not rot.

Above all, securing water is very hard. Save money even if you are thirsty. Well, this time it is said that Japan will arrive in 2 days. I think there was a mistake.

If you can't go at an impossible speed, you can't do it. "

"I also think that the time series is strange. However, it is Japan that flew the iron dragon, so it may not be possible to plan with our common sense."

It will be time soon.

A white boat like an island appears from the shadow of the island.

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Big! And there is no sail! !

The largest ship stopped offshore.

Tagami starts explaining.

"This time, I'm heading to Japan on a boat that's parked offshore. In fact, I wanted to berth directly at this port, but unfortunately the port's lack of water depths We've stopped, and you'll be on a small boat and move on. "

Eventually, three small boats emerged from the ship, blasting towards the port at an incredible speed.

There was no sail on the ship either.

`` Tanoue, Taueno ''

Hanki calls.

"Yes, what is it?"

"Um ... that boat doesn't seem to have any sails, but how is it moving? Regarding the boat, it doesn't seem to have oars, but how can it run at that speed? Is it like a magic ship in the first civilization? "

"I don't know what the first civilized magic ship is, but the ship is powered by a diesel engine."

"Does it work?"

"Yes, it's the so-called Karakuri. It explodes heavy oil, absorbs its energy, and drives it by turning a screw."

"Well, I don't understand well, but it's amazing."

Eventually, everyone boarded a small boat and headed for a large passenger boat.

Embark on a large passenger ship.

When you enter the cruise ship, everyone is surprised,

Bright. Do they keep the spirit of light?

"This ... this ship is made of iron, how is it floating ... and the inside is bright and spacious."

They were guided to their assigned rooms, and the whole house was relaxed.

From the diary of that day

I can't hide my surprise. Such a large ship has never been seen, heard, or read in the literature.

In addition, the inside is comfortable, bright and, incredibly, the temperature is kept constant.

Despite such a large ship, it travels on the sea at the speed of an arrow.

What kind of country is Japan, a country that produces such things?

Some Foreign Affairs Bureaus say they must be emerging barbarians, but for now I don't want to say or admit, but from them we're not in barbarians Do you?

Maybe Japan has the power equivalent to the great powers of the civilized sphere.

Two days later

"Everyone has come to see Fukuoka City. Fukuoka City is the largest city in the Kyushu and Chugoku-Shikoku regions. You can see Hakata Port there, You will travel to Hotel Nikko to learn basic knowledge about Japan. "

Hakata Port is visible. High-rise buildings are lined up, and the city expressway is running.

Soon, take the limousine bus and move to Hotel Shin Nikko.

On the ship, Taue told me that what was called a car was driven by an internal combustion engine, but I didn't think it was so large.

According to the story, one household per person has almost a car, and even day laborers in their 20s can buy cars, regardless of grade.

Abundantly rich.

At a hotel, learn basic Japanese knowledge. Signal systems, vending machines, automatic ticket gates, railway systems, and if you pick up what you picked up as yourself, you would be charged with embezzlement.

According to their explanation, it seems strange, but it is science, and it is said that anyone can make it if they understand the mechanism.

Indeed, without the traffic light, the cars would not work if they like and win the car.

`` Tanoue, Taueno ''

Hanki speaks.

"What is it? Hanki-sama"

"It looks like it's evolving a lot, but is the capital still evolving?"

"Yes, first of all, the population is incomparable, so the skyscrapers will be taller than here. The metro is also spread like a net, not a few lines.

The city center is spread over a wide area. It's embarrassing, but the cityscape is more beautiful in Fukuoka City. People who come to Tokyo from Fukuoka city always feel mixed and dirty. "

"Umm ... Tagami-dono, I want to see the Japanese army, isn't it possible?"

"Japan does not have an army. There is a SDF that will replace it. Well, wait a minute."

Tagami puts out something like a glowing small board, and begins to speak alone. It's like a communication magic, but it's unusually small.

"Hanki, an air festival will be held just tomorrow at the Air Self Defense Force's Tsukijo base. It's like a meeting of the SDF and citizens for the general public, but we can arrange it if it's okay."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Hanki was in a good mood after taking a tour of the Japanese military.

"Are there any other people who would like to go to the Chikujo Air Festival? We will arrange guest seats."

"I will go too"

Yagou raises his hand, and the next day he will go to the air festival in Hanki and Yago.

next day--

Hanki and Yago were in the guest seats at the Chikujo Air Festival.

(To be honest, on the highway, I almost turned my eyes, but finally I can see a demonstration of the dragons at the iron dragon base)

Soon, an air festival will be held.

It is incredible from the common sense of the Principality of Qauteine that ordinary citizens enter the base and interact with the military, which is incredible. Hanki began to think she was being done.

"The F-15's maneuvering is taking place right now. Look at the sky on the right. The F-15 has entered at 850 km / h."

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

"Tagami-dono: Is it 850km now? Isn't it a mistake?"

Hanki talks with excitement.

"Yes, we announced 850km / h."

Look right.

Silence, the flying object is approaching. When you approach the guest seat, you begin to hear the sound.

"Close to the speed of sound!"

Hanki barks.

Gooooooooooooo

F-15 begins to rise to the point where it seems close to vertical. Partly separated air forms a white cloud at the upper part of the wing, and a white wake is traced at the wing tip by the air flowing from the lower part of the wing to the upper part.

A thunder-like roar wraps around, and two red flames are visible from behind the engine. Afterburner ignition.

The plane disappeared into the blue sky in a short time.

Hanki is utterly speechless.

"Look at the sky on the left. The F-15 is back."

"Huh? Already?"

"The F-15 enters at about 600 km / h and spins in front of you. During this time, the pilot takes a large G while turning."

The F-15 makes a large turn in front of the audience.

"Is this maneuverable?"

Rise as it is

"Is there such a power to rise from that system?"

Various airplanes are dancing and have the aerobatic flight of Blue Impulse, ending the air festival.

"Well, Tagami-dono, that iron dragon is ridiculously fast, but how fast do you get?"

"The F15 is Japan's main fighter, with a speed of about Mach 2.5. It's 2.5 times the speed of sound. If it exceeds the speed of sound, a shock wave will be emitted, so today's flight will be held down at about 850 km / h I think he was there. "

From Hanki's diary of the day

Buildings overflowing the town, huge sky roads, and a large-scale distribution system called a railway.

I'm scared of Japan, the country that makes these terrific buildings.

Moreover, the fact that this is not a capital city of Japan but a local city. I just want words that express a surprise above the startle.

Too rich a country, they have tremendous military skills worthy of their strong national strength.

The fighting iron dragon flies at 2.5 times the speed of sound and has a tremendous climbing power.

The combat radius is a monster that exceeds 1000km.

From their point of view, Wyvern in our country will seem to have stopped.

According to a guide, Tagami, Tetsuryu can be used to support sea and land attacks.

I felt threatened by the iron dragon who entered My Hark, but their ability was not such a thing.

If it is a battle dragon, you can drop it immediately after entering My Hark. In other words, it can be inferred that their intrusion into Myhaak was truly patrol.

We have to build friendly relations with them.

Giving them to enemies is more terrifying than sending them to the civilized powers.

Do not be hostile to them.

At the hotel

"Well, Mr. Yago"

"What is it?"

"What do you think of Japan"

"Yes, in a nutshell, it's rich. It's so amazing ... the temperature inside the hotel is kept constant. How much energy is needed to warm such a building? In addition, since foreign missions are coming, the area is not particularly warm, and almost all existing buildings here are conditioned.

There is a machine that gives hot water just by twisting. It can be immersed in warm water without having to start a fire. The toilets are also very clean.

When you go outside, there is an unmanned vending machine where you can get cold juices and even some alcohol.

You can always get high quality items at the stores that are open at night.

Fresh food is always available at the food counter.

Because it is bright at night, you can walk in the city without lights and the security is incredibly good.

All living levels are different in dimension compared to Japan. Unfortunately, I feel the difference in national power.

And I was honestly surprised when flying.

I was shown the overwhelming difference in power.

I thought Japan should not turn to the enemy. "

"I think it's the same ... I guess Wyvern's aerial tactics wouldn't help before that fighting iron dragon. Tomorrow we're leaving for the capital. Japan is bad for the heart. "

"I'm thrilled. Such a country suddenly appears nearby and has a higher civilization than the civilizations that have looked down on themselves. The first contacting country is Japan. .. If they don't have the ability to claim victory, this is fortunate. "

Yago and Hanki continued speaking until midnight.

The next day ---

On a cool morning, the clouds are high and the air is clear and looks good from afar.

Sunny ―――

The air of Japan is clear every day without the influence of the air pollutant PM2.5 flying from China.

Visible in

One man in a suit appears in front of the mission.

"Good morning, everyone. Did you sleep well yesterday?"

Talk to the delegation where Tagami gathered.

"Today, after breakfast, there will be an explanation of the events in Tokyo from 10:00 am and 11:00 am

Leave the hotel at 30 minutes and take the Shinkansen from Hakata to Tokyo at 12:00.

At 17:04 we will arrive at Tokyo Station and then ... "

Explanation follows

What I think about coming to Japan is that the concept of ticking time is clear.

A precise watch called a wristwatch is distributed to the mission.

It is possible to keep time in seconds and it is easy to carry,

This means that simultaneous attacks with no time difference are possible.

This is tremendous in the sense of effective military operations.

What's even more surprising is that the clock that was distributed now says "Dempasola Witch",

It keeps moving as long as there is light, and the error is only one second in 100,000 years.

I don't know how to describe it.

"I heard that Tagami-dono, Hakata and Tokyo are more than 1000 km apart ..."

"Yes, it is"

"I heard that the vehicle called the Shinkansen that rides today is a vehicle that runs on the ground where speed is high

is"

Yago keeps talking.

"What is 17:04 arrival? Do you arrive so precisely to the minute?"

"Yes, if there are no disasters or accidents, I will arrive on time."

... apparently we shouldn't really try to plan Japan with our knowledge

"I understand. Thank you."

"No"

Tagami laughs with a full smile.

Kee-oh! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The sound of an object hitting the object, what exactly happened?

Yago looks out.

One woman is sitting with blood flowing from her head, and a strange car painted yellow stops beside her.

"Is it a taxi accident again?"

Takami tells you to discard.

It was a moment when an accident caused by a taxi, which is said to be half of the accident in Fukuoka, occurred.

The woman in the accident is drooling without force.

"Is bad! You have to treat it soon !!"

Yago is about to run.

"Wait, Yago, the ambulance will be coming soon, so it's okay."

The yago shakes off the control of Tanoe, jumps out of the hotel, and rushes to the sitting woman.

Takagami could not afford to allow foreign missions to treat the injured.

The woman was drooling and bleeding violently from the wound on her head with each pulse.

"I'm sorry.,. Vmtaiba, eo., B, a; wsoe4igamoiseo"

Yago begins to cast something, and both hands emit pale light.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wound on the woman's head closes off very quickly.

There were crowds around.

"Suh ... amazing! Saw !? Now"

"I saw! If that person chanted something, the wound was closed!"

"I can't believe it. It's like magic!"

Someone shouts.

"? Magic, but what is unusual?"

The surroundings boil to the words you casually answer. A gorgeous goose. The surroundings were shrouded in hustle and bustle.

In the Shinkansen

"No, I was surprised. It was written in the material, but it is actually possible to see magic ... No, it is wonderful."

Takami is praised.

"Is the recovery magic rare in Japan?"

Yagou was praised and did not feel bad. Until now I was just surprised, but for the first time I was surprised at the Japanese, and I felt like I was proud of my inner heart.

"No, there is no recovery system in Japan, no magic itself."

"e!!!!!!!!!"

The casual remarks of the Tagamis are all surprised by the missions.

"But ... what's the communication between the plane and the ground, unless it's communication magic?"

Hanki asks

"That uses radio waves .... As I said once, what you say, all of Japan's development is due to science."

"Are you all scratching?"

"Yes, Japan is physics. It pursues the essence of things thoroughly. With this, Japan is maintaining the country with the things made."

It was a moment for the mission to say something about the state secret class.

If there is no magic in Japan, we can export our magic technology under good conditions.

For example, you can set up a simple type of surgery to heal small injuries and stiff shoulders, and there will be demand for emergency outpatients following this accident.

Magic is quite effective for temporary wound healing.

You can also set up a magic school and pay tuition.

It was an important finding that Japan relied solely on science in developing the Principality of Kwatoine.

Having a large number of personal mages that can be used in battles is a matter of nature, magical techniques and human resources are essential, but if you know the science in Japan, If we can make it, we can imitate it to some extent. In other words, the basic value of "national power" can be raised.

"Is it possible to export technology to Tagami-no-dono, things, physics?"

"In Japan, a law called the New World Technology Spill Prevention Act has recently been enacted. The export of core technologies is banned, so it would be difficult, but if you only have physics, you can sell it at a bookstore located there. But I think it's difficult to translate it into your own language because the translation work has not progressed at all. "

This world is often incomprehensible, and when it comes to words, even though words can be communicated, it becomes a completely different language and grammar when written in letters. Japan has not yet transferred to this world, and at the same time, all countries are at the level of dispatching missions and there is no diplomatic relations, so translation work is progressing rapidly in various fields, but difficulties are extremely difficult. Was.

Yagou decided to bring back as many books on physics, science and chemistry as possible.

The Shinkansen was running smoothly.

"Hanki, anyway, the Shinkansen is fast."

"Well, I'm running at such a speed, but it's hard to shake and it's comfortable. But if I run at this speed, I'm afraid of an accident."

"Since the Shinkansen, there have been no deaths due to accidents since its foundation. It is the safest vehicle in Japan."

"Hmm, I can't believe it.

While talking about that, the Shinkansen advanced.

From the diary of YAGO (excerpt)

After passing through several large cities, we arrived at Tokyo, the capital of Japan, by bullet train.

Even the local cities on the way to Tokyo far surpassed the capitals of the civilized nations, Tokyo is a different dimension. Everything moves accurately, there is a lot of people, and the height of the building runs through the sky.

There is a building that actually exceeds Japan's famous Mount Ejay (539m above sea level).

I will be dispatched as a mission to a country with the power to create such a huge architectural county, and will challenge working-level consultations tomorrow.

We will do our best to meet our national interests.

I am fortunate to be able to witness these historical moments.

next day----------

Japan, Quatine Working Group Meeting

The meeting has begun.

One skinny man wearing glasses talks to the Qauteine mission.

"I'm Himura from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. Let's say it's straightforward, but we want food now.

Required items are ... "

Various necessary food items are listed, but what is surprising is the quantity.

"So ... 55 million tons per gross tonnage !?"

"Yes, I understand that your country is a thriving country of agriculture. Even if your food self-sufficiency rate is over 100%, I do not think that you can export this number in one country, I want to know how much of this is possible. Of course we don't want an immediate answer, but we don't have the time.

Yago who has been reading the material begins to speak.

"The marine resources are difficult, and I do not understand this coffee bean well, but otherwise I think that it is possible to secure only the amount of export. Of course I need the government's permission, but just ..."

"Dad !?"

"We don't have the means to deliver this much to your country. There is a large granary area inland, but there isn't enough infrastructure to transport it from there to the port. There is also a shortage of staff, and above all, there is no ship. "

"So, if you solve that, would you export your food?"

"I need to confirm my home country, but I think it is possible."

Participants on the Japanese side are angry.

Perhaps, suddenly, the possibility of saving Japan's food crisis began to appear.

A man wearing glasses with dandy gray hair starts talking.

"It is Maejima of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If the Principality of Kwatoine is good, we would like to improve the port facilities, infrastructure for the granary area in Kwatoine, and the development of railways, and Japan will provide funding through government development assistance and how will Japan improve it? ? "

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The Kwatoine mission is raging. Water and food in the Principality of Kwatoine, which is said to be free, have been fueled by food exports, and Japan has bought out the development of port and rail infrastructure.

Are there such favorable conditions?

The meeting ended successfully.

10 days later ...

Agreement in Principality of Quatine and Japan.

○ The Principality of Kwatoine will export the necessary amount of food to Japan.

○ Japan will expand the port of My Hark in the Principality of Quatine and develop infrastructure from My Hark to the granary area with Japanese funds.

○ Japan and the Principality of Quatine will continue discussions on establishing diplomatic relations.

○ Improve exchange rates as soon as possible.

○ Japan will develop infrastructure (water, electricity, gas) in the country for the next year in return for the bulk purchase of food from the country.

After that, respond according to the amount of food at the exchange rate.

○ Japan and the Principality of Qauteine will continue discussions on concluding a nonaggression treaty.

For the mission, we were able to build good relations with Japan under incredibly good conditions.

Japan and Quatine will build an inseparable friendship, become a fate community, and challenge the torrent of this world.
