Ore no Ongaeshi: High Spec Murazukuri (LN)

"Dana the Yamato. This is the ruin."

The next day of a lively feast.

We are headed to investigate the ruins near the Holy Capital. I arrived at my destination with a guide to the rack.

"Is this it? That's a quiet place."

The ruins were in the depths of a small forest.

Unlike the Woods of Uld, it is a serene place with few dangerous beasts.

"This is more like a villa than a ruin."

Unlike the ruins of the Imperial Tree Sea, which was surrounded by walls, this is a residential atmosphere.

It had artificial ponds and gardens, perhaps a villa. Now it's swallowed by trees and the building is half destroyed.

"This is where the ruins were located."

Guide the rack to the basement.

There were no particular traps or seals, and the structure was easy to put in.

"When we talk about neighbors, it seems like this was a place where there was nothing"

Ask how the ruins were discovered from the rack while traveling.

Anything. They say this place has existed for a long time without anyone discovering it.

It was probably hidden in a super-empire junction. Maybe it's a form of cover-up or invisible technique.

"It looks like it was suddenly discovered after the“ New Moon "in the meantime."

Not long before now, the beasts of the woods suddenly made a scene. So by the hunters of the neighborhood who rushed, this ruin is discovered.

The danger of ancient ruins was known to everyone in the Spiritual Beast War. Rack and Maria, who received the report, came to the first investigation.

"I see. Maybe it had a spiritual beast war impact"

Summarize your thoughts as you listen to Rack.

For a long time, this ruin was hidden. It may have been influenced by the Spiritual Beast War that it suddenly emerged.

What appeared after the crescent moon would be that the position of the moon had something to do with ancient art.

"I see, Master Yamato. Speaking of which, the art of Romanus, the heavenly god, is also influenced by the sequence of the moon and the yang."

Maria nods as she accompanies the investigation team.

Being the Virgin, she can perform miracles with the help of Romanus the heavenly god. That insight, educated in brilliance, is profound.

"Especially this month, the Deep Sea Moon, where the two moons overlap."

Maria explains with a gaze at the blue sky.

Unlike Earth, there are two moons in this world. Now that line is just a rare period of time lined up in a straight line, he said.

"Is it still true? That must have weakened the bond between these ruins."

Consolidate the hypothesis as you listen.

This ancient site would have emerged under the influence of two things: the Spiritual Beast War and the “Deep Sea Moon”. That would convince me that they were suddenly discovered.

"Ah, Dana. This room."

While we're talking about that, we get to the room where we want to be.

It was a small room in the basement of the ruins. A strange device is placed in the center.

"Is this a relic device? And where Maria lost her mind last time?

Yes, Mr. Yamato.

Last time, the racks were thoroughly investigating the ruins.

The Ganesha family has lifted the human trap. The surgical exploration was the formation for which Maria was in charge.

"I was looking into this device, and for some reason, my consciousness got confused."

That's when Maria suddenly passed out.

Rack, who was distracted, contacted me in the village of Uld with a communications magic prop. As a result, Maria regained consciousness a few hours later.

"I see. You're smaller than the rest of the ruins."

I will carefully examine the device.

What I have seen so far are ancient ruins of the sea of trees in the Hizan Empire. “Tower of the Quadrilateral God" in the back of the Wood Forest.

This time the device is quite small compared to those two.

"This is“ César le Cruz "… it will be the name of the Lord of this mansion"

"What, Dana ⁉ can you read ancient letters? ⁉"

"Oh. I can read simple sentences. Previously on Relic Letters."

Open your eyes and answer the surprise rack.

I have recorded all the ancient letters of the ruins I have discovered so far. I was able to analyze it and now I can read it to a certain extent.

"Even the senior scholars in the Holy Capital couldn't analyze the ancient letters...... that's right, Master Yamato!

"Right, Maria. Even the scholars of Imperial Capital, including Brother Loki, can't do it. It's really not a big deal."

Maria and Syldria also come to praise.

The Holy Kingdom of Romanus and the Hizan Empire also have the highest research institutions on the continent. Even scholars in both countries said they could not analyze ancient letters.

"What we need to analyze the letters is a shift in ideas. It's no big deal."

In an archaeological circle where I was in college, “decoding games” were popular for a time.

Combine languages and ancient characters from all over the world to create cryptography for your opponent and make it a problem. It is a concise rule that deciphering it is better to win.

"Although a super imperial, language has its laws. Well, it takes experience to decipher it."

Languages from all over the world are readily available online in modern Japan.

Besides, I didn't remember losing to anyone in the Decryption Game. The experience of decryption I learned while playing lived here.

"I'll tell Loki and the others how to decipher it in time. Now we're going to re-investigate anyway."

If we keep chatting like this, we won't be able to proceed with the re-investigation.

I promise to teach countries how to decipher ancient scripts.

"Well, it looks like this was an ancient imperial villa and laboratory called César Le Cruz."

Check while deciphering the inscribed characters on the device.

According to the information, this is a small, personal laboratory. This is a device that deploys junctions semi-permanently. That's what it said.

"I see. Unlike the Tower of the Quadrilateral God, there seems to be no great danger."

The "Tower of the Quadrilateral God” is an ancient monument that, during the Great War of the Spiritual Beast, plunged the entire continent into fear.

But this ruin doesn't seem to have the power of direct destruction.

By the way, the "Tower of the Quadrilateral God” was completely destroyed by me. It is still regularly confirmed and cannot be reused.

"No, that was good. That's a relief!

Rack puts a relief look on the investigation report.

Anyway, I knew the horrors of ancient ruins in the war. Nobody wants to taste that nightmare again.

Anyway, this device will be destroyed as soon as the investigation is complete.

I declare to the faces I accompany.

Ancient ruins have many uncertainties and we do not know what terrible powers are hidden.

Strong power creates dangerous beings, like the spiritual beast administrator (Leiju Master). In order to eliminate the aftermath, the ruins will have to be destroyed thoroughly.

"Right, Mr. Yamato. I will tell the Pope and the King from me."

Maria agrees.

Being the Virgin, she has a strong voice and equivalence with the King. He was also entrusted by King Romanus, especially with regard to the disposal of ancient sites.

"Then we'll look at the ancient shapes before they break us."

"Mr. Jii of Gaton. Be careful."

"Hmm, kid. Who do you think I am?"

Accompanied by an investigation, Gaton answers with a snort.

They Mountain Hole tribes are a species loved by the gods of rock and iron. I knew better than anyone the dangers of ancient ruins. If I let it work with the rack, it would be fine when there was an anomaly.

We will proceed with our investigation carefully.

"Oh, what is this? Yamato, can you decipher this letter too?

Maria has asked about the letters that were drawn behind the device.

Being the Virgin, she seems to be twice as interested in ancient letters.

"This sounds different from the description of the device. Probably the one the producer left behind."

What was written behind it was a small ancient letter.

Unlike other neat letters, it is running and writing. Probably a memorandum or something from the producer César Le Cruz.

"César le Cruz... and“ Chamran ”'s... forever... It's the only place that's gone."

There was another person's name written there.

He is a person named “Shanlan” and has no last name unlike the producer. The sound of the name also makes me feel a little different from the ancients.

"César le Cruz and Chamran......"

Maria stares at the graffiti intrigued.

Place your hands on the device and observe up close.

"" Eternal "…"

It was the moment Maria uttered the word.

"Eh ⁉ Guys, watch out!

I detected something strange.

Issue a warning to everyone who was around the device.

Those who accompany the investigation lay down their weapons.

"No killing or malice. But what... what's this warm feeling?

There was no abnormality in the device.

But I felt a strange magic (mana).

Unlike the last “Tower of the Quadrilateral God," I don't feel any danger to myself.

But obviously some sort of technique is up and running.

"Cah! Maria ⁉"

It was then. Reesha's sad cry echoes.

Maria, who was next to her, disappeared from her feet.

"Come on! Is this a form of forced metastasis? ⁉"

I react faster than anyone else.

With his fortified feet, he rushes to Maria's all at once.

Because the battle at the Holy Tower a year ago. At that time, the technique of forced metastasis was similar to that of vanishing.

"Yamato... Sama..."

But the speed of this transfer was too early.

Maria had disappeared before she could help out.

He left behind only a voice calling me and was forcibly transferred somewhere.
