Episode 319

So I got married to Eyria, so I decided to give my last name Eindorf. Because a werewolf has no surname.

I'm a council member of the Federal Council, so I'm on par with Tamori.

So I will give a middle name. In Miralardia, it is customary to give a middle name when you become a guardian.

"Is it a phone?"

Ayria and the Eindorf family entourage look away. Everyone is confused.

Then Ilia said.

"I think the name of a more famous person is fine."

When a member of the Eindorf family becomes a servant, the middle name to be given is generally fixed.

It is customary to get names from the ancestors of the Eindorf family, celebrities from Lünheit, and Saints of the Territory.

While I was shown the list of candidates, I liked the name "phone".

The stewards who serve the Eindorf family are also accompanied by the list.

"Husband, this is indeed the name of the successive heads of the Eindorf family, but ... Um ..."

Iria takes over instead of the steward who has been muffled.

"It's a very modest achievement. At Lunehite before the unification of Milaldia, I'm deciding the size of the square and improving the waterway."

Isn't that a wonderful person?

The sewer I cut out was also very polite.

"I like it more and I'll make it a phone. I'll be called Weid von Eindorf."

The steward looks at Eyria with a confused face. As she nodded and allowed her to speak, the steward bowed deeply at me.

"Thank you very much for your special attention to the Eindorf family. All our servants will do our best to serve you."

"Thank you"

Apparently they seem to think that I chose the name of a person from the Eindorf family for the sake of Eyria.

That's the decisive reason, of course, but the first reason we saw this name is of course different.

Because it's a phone

Weid von Eindorf.

It looks like a German aristocrat. It ’s really cool. I'm thrilled if it's going to be published in an official document with this name.

The contents are Japanese.

So I was fine and decided to continue working as "Lieutenant of the Devil King Ayria, Lord Weite von Eindorf".

One thing I remembered was the important thing.

When Iria and I are enjoying afternoon tea, I cut it out.

"Is that Fon unifying the size of the square?"

"Yes. There are various types of boxes for measuring grain and oil, but using different boxes to handle the same product can cause trouble."

This is a trading city where goods come from here and there.

Since different cities usually use differently sized squares, troubles such as "less than expected" occur during transactions.

Therefore, Mr. Fong stipulated that "when conducting trading in square units at Lünheight, use the squares approved by the Chamber of Commerce."

This has reduced trouble, and the Chamber of Commerce has gained momentum.

Sir Fon used the Chamber of Commerce to improve Lünheit's economy and security.

I heard that story from Iria and returned to her.

"What Fon did was very important. There was a concept of" standardization "in the world I was in. What Fon did was standardize the measure."

Due to differences in eating habits and prices, the size of the square varies from city to city. In other words, the squares used by each merchant varied.

Naturally, "Hey Aya, is this cell small?"

If the size is too different, you can re-measure or recalculate in the opponent's square, but this is quite troublesome. It takes time and effort.

There is a pen and an abacus, but there is no calculator or spreadsheet software.

"Because of the differences in the specifications of the sho, the width of the large river of trade was narrowed in one place. This was a loss for Lünheight."

So Lord Fon has decided to sell in Lünheit designated squares for trading in the city.

The standard was gradually spread not only to Lünheit but also to other cities.

Iria mutters suddenly.

"Thanks to the Lünheit measure being popular in the south, all traders in the south trade in the Lünhite measure."

"Is it wonderful?"

Establishing and disseminating standards is in everyone's interest, and it will be of great benefit to those who set them.

"Even in the last life, such a standard battle was a standard.

"Huh ..."

As expected, it seems that Iria still doesn't fit well.

"In the Demon King's army, the predecessor ... No, the predecessor, Devil King Friedenrichter, was stuck to that."

The first Demon King Friedenrichter emphasized the importance of standardization.

Standardization was a major prerequisite for building a system, and was an inevitable issue when considering the modernization of the Demon King's army.

However, there are still few areas that need to be standardized, and even if necessary, the technology has not been able to keep up, and the scope is very limited.

"Friedenrichter probably had a war in that world. Two big wars and our country lost the second time."

"What? ..."

Ilia looks at her chest and looks worried.

I waved with a smile.

"After that, you've revived nicely. Did you see that city? I'm a human born decades after the war ended."

I drink a sip of tea and keep talking.

"It seems that we had a lot of trouble because the standardization didn't work anyway."

The octane value of the fuel differs between the Army and the Navy.

A bullet with the same caliber cannot be inserted.

I don't know the details, but I've heard a lot.

After the war, I rubbed with VHS and Beta, and rubbed with Blu-ray and HDDVD.

I explain to Iria thinking about that.

"The army is a huge system, including logistics and training ... um, it's like a single device, for example. I think that the soldiers' equipment used in a group will need to be standardized someday."

"I see. Even if the spear length is one, it is easier for tacticians and blacksmiths if they are all together."

Like standardization, I often think about systems in this world.

After all, technologies that can't be integrated into existing or newly created systems are useless.

So even if you have the knowledge of the past, you can only provide what is needed in this world.

I don't really have that much expertise.

I'm talking to Iria every day to talk about the future direction of Miradia.

In addition, I have heard a bit of the complaints of the previous life.

It's nice to have someone who can share secrets.

After Friedenrichter passed away, there was no one to talk about.

By the way, in this world, there is one important field before standardization.

It's magic.

In the first place, there is no unit system.

In engineering terms, if you order "This part should be 3 cm in diameter and weigh less than 10 grams," there is no "centimeter" or "gram".

Research cannot proceed because of this.

It was a terrible situation, but it was long gone.

The next day, while thinking about that, I suddenly came up with a plan.

Make units. The unit of magic power that is the source of magic.

Creating units of magic makes it easier to write reports and research papers, and also allows you to compare magicians and magic weapons.

This is the first step in bringing magic from craftsmanship to learning.

"So that kite"

"Yes"

"I'm going to use your magical power as a unit of one kite."

"Please wait!"

Kite is in a hurry, but this is a living ruler.

"You are a detective spell, you can make accurate measurements, and your own magical power is stable and average, and perfect as a standard."

"Maybe it is!"

Just like blood pressure and body temperature, the magical power of living organisms fluctuates slightly. In that regard, kites are fairly stable.

I explained it to the kite, including that, and continued.

"In the future, there will be more opportunities to investigate the relics of the Old Dynasty. When dealing with large magical powers, reports can be easier to understand if they can be expressed in units of" kites "."

We need to find out more about the times of the brave rebellion and make sure the disaster isn't repeated.

The ancient civilization of Milaldia was ruined, leaving only archeological sites.

Then the kite's reaction calmed down.

"That's true .... In the Senate era, the superior was ba .... I wasn't familiar with magic, so I didn't need such a precise report."

"I guess. I want to develop it as an academic in the future, and then I absolutely need credits."

And I cut out the main subject.

"That's why you command me to define 'One Kite.' Become an official apprentice under Gomoviloa and study with Rykkos."

`` The Great Demon King !? ''

"Oh, this kind of basic research is important. The Demon King's army will provide full support. I will help as much as possible."

This study is like classical mechanics ... yes, it will go down in history as the cornerstone of "classical magic".

And I ordered the research. That's why I can leave my name in the academic field. Fufufu.

After that, I destroyed two hero manufacturing machines, and now I'm going to make them chara.

However, the kite seems to feel strange and has a steep face.

"But, Mr. Weid, then my work ...?"

"Yes, my deputy is the same as before, but I'll remove him from my assistant."

"No !?"

After all?

But no good.

I persuade him.

"I know your hard work and honesty, and your brains so well. You're not the man who ends up with my aide."

"Eh? Eh?"

I grabbed the kite's shoulders and hit my heart.

"You're a genius in history, kite"

"I'm me !?"

of course.

Kite has black and white eyes.

"But it's more fun to help Mr. Weid ..."

"I'm in trouble if I'm gone. So I've put off procrastination."

Not only research ability but also management ability is terrible. Thanks to me, I am now working comfortably despite being the busiest ever.

I never want to let go.

But don't end this man with my assistant. It is too wasteful. I've always been concerned since he became my subordinate.

He says again, because he doesn't seem to know his excellence.

"If you put your research here, a magician a hundred or two hundred years later ... no, everyone can benefit. Even after we die, many will be happy. I can do it. "

You become Newton in the magical world.

Right now it's a magic circle.

Newton returned to the countryside for the plague pandemic and has done much research in his spare time. ... seems like. I don't know.

Freeing genius from chores and giving time and environment for research is important to us ordinary people.

So I cried and cried and decided to let go of him.

Of course he wouldn't be convinced himself, but he is trying hard to persuade him now.

"I want to define magic. I don't know what to do. I need to figure out what magic is to solve mysteries in this world."

Power, magic power that was not confirmed in the previous life.

In order to develop other disciplines in this world, you will have to find out what magic is. Magic affects the results of experiments and measurements.

"Defining interim units is the first step. I'm second-class as a researcher, so I leave it to you first-class."

`` I'm first class !? ''

"Yes, I need your help. Open the door as a somber lieutenant for those who follow us."

Clear mind, profound knowledge, ethical and sincere personality. And detection magic honed to terrible precision.

A man born to be a researcher.

The kite looked a bit lost, but finally said,

"I see. If Mr. Weid tells me that much, I'll do my best as a sober aide!"

"Oh, please."

I was relieved, but the kite looked at me and smiled shyly.

"But Mr. Weid, don't let another person be a deputy because I'm quitting a deputy job?"

"……all right"

I have to manage my work and do it myself.
