Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Kites were invited to the magic city of Sandra and were supposed to take hands-on classes as part of their preparation for the exchange study abroad. Such people surpassed the assault by the mysterious group of black clothes that occurred on the third day, and they were to receive a lecture on the fourth day of the following day.

So, after hearing the investigation report of yesterday from Shirena first thing in the morning. Kate and Luke, who accidentally came to the student conference room to study the "Book of God," were moving to the classroom to receive Artur's lecture with both of them.

"No, it's been a long time." And classes in this auditorium. "

”Speaking of which... I didn't think it was necessary to go out with me.”

That's the former chairman. Why are you here? While listening to the voices of the seventh-grade students, he asked Luke in a flash of joy.

"Yeah, I'm the caretaker." Besides, I rarely hear Mr. Artur's classes. I just wanted to hear it. "

"I see..."

Would that be okay if the customer is enjoying herself? Instantly, Luke looked sideways at Luke and prepared the lesson with a slightly bad look. Meanwhile, Kite was reading a book that Luke had.

"Hmm..."

Fascinating. Luke came to the student room to pick up some of the most famous books that Sandra knows about, and some of the most famous drawings. To put it simply, it was made to boast about how great Sandra was.

The publication seemed to be quite old, and it seemed that the student association officer at that time had been involved in the publication after graduation and had donated it to the student association of the teaching school. That's why Luke didn't have it, so he went to the student council room to collect it. And then Tina peered at him like that.

"Huh... I'm going to read another unusual list." It's in good condition. "

"Huh? Have you seen it?"

Hmmm... I bought the one that was in the auction before.

Ah, my ankle?

”I... well, it's me”

Tina smiles with a slightly troubled look at Kite's question. Apparently, Kite didn't know about it, so she put it on the side of the Maxwells.

"I see... the grimoire listed here." It seems to be related to me, is that so? "

”I see... there's a lot of things that have changed since then, so it won't be much of an attraction”

I see... it's quite ancient, isn't it?

"It's an atlas published over a hundred years ago." It is described in detail as a good price, so call it a good book. "

Wow. Kite is looking again at an atlas that seems to have been published over a hundred years ago. In that case, the condition was quite good, and although some scuffs were found, the contents of roughly all the pages could be confirmed. As she peered into the picture book, Tina told Kite.

"As far as I can tell, it is probably only the atlas that contains more than two digits of the Book of God." Everything else is listed in one or two books. If it's an auction, it's a premium price. "

"... didn't you tell me you bought it?"

"I bought it... I admit it was a little expensive"

Apparently, it was quite expensive to buy a picture book. Tina inadvertently turned away from Kite's half-eyed question. In addition, when I asked Kite about the price, she didn't ask if she thought the manners were bad, but when I asked her at night, the details were blurred, but it seemed that the price was two orders of ten thousand yen in the second half of the Japanese yen. Kite was eating bubbles for too much money. However, I was concerned about it later, but I decided not to ask now.

"... well, that's fine. By the way, I was surprised to see this, but should I let the Temple City make these drawings as well?"

"Hmm... that's right." It was unexpected that I met there... but I'm sure I can do that now... "

In response to Keitaro's question, I wonder what happened to Tina. The Great Library in the Temple City has many books donated, some of which are grimoires of the masterless. There was also a "Book of God" in it, which I could make normally if I wanted to make an atlas.

"Well, that's fine when I get home." In the meantime, I have to make a list before the atlas. "

"Ahh... even if it's just a list, it's going to take a while..."

"Hmm. It might be a good idea to make an atlas, but not before." After all, there's a lot of storage there for now... "

After all, due to the nature of kites, the temple city has been banned for various reasons, and a lot of books have been donated because they are valuable but difficult to manage. It was such an enormous amount that no one could grasp how much it was. And when I was discussing it, the chime rang, and the door opened and Artur came in.

"... now, let's give the second lecture today." Last time, I think I told you about the magic book with the "Book of God" at the head. Now let's start with the story of "God" in the "Book of God". "

Artur didn't have to worry about Luke in particular, but started talking lightly. And he proceeded to speak of the Book of God, which he had not brought, because it was precious unto the stones.

"First of all, this' Book of God ', before we speak of it. Some of you know about the large magic armor...... there"

"Yes... large magic armor." It has been used in ancient civilizations. It is often used to engage giant species and other large monsters, and in other large-scale projects such as civil engineering, work magic armor is sometimes used. "

"That's right. It's a large magic armor, but it's currently used for various purposes." Nowadays, the McDowell family of the Entesian Empire has a new axis that becomes a magic machine, but it also becomes a large magic armor. "

I'd like you to say that in front of Tina. Kite thinks so, looking at her unchaste face. It should be noted that Tina after that, if it is roughly separated, it may be the same system, but there are too many differences in the operating system, etc., so I would like you not to do it together.

However, now that she can't say that she belongs to such a military secret, Kate decided to hide her at the barrier.

"Then this large magic armor... it was used in the old civilization, but before that." What were the people doing when they got even older? Or the Warring States Period, when the old civilization collapsed and the technology of large magic armor was lost. How did you fight against large monsters in those times? The [God] in this [Book of God] is indispensable in telling the story. "

Artur writes two names on the blackboard: < > and < >.

"Once a mighty and giant monster... it was a time when there was no large magic armor in battle with monsters like the Disaster Species." "God" in the "Book of God" was a trump card. By using this to summon [God], humans were fighting such calamities. "

I see. For a moment, I understood that the idea of having large magic armor and magic machines was the premise. That is because it is common nowadays, everyone thinks in the same way, and I have never wondered why I would have been without this.

"It is the" God "in the" Book of God, "but it is roughly divided into these two. It was < > and < >... about this. Luke, let me ask you something."

"Yes... < >. It is a 'god' with a flesh made of metal, as it is called the god of machines. < >. It's a" god "with flesh and blood.”

"That's right... can you tell me the difference between the two?"

So it was < > that Kite fought yesterday. Moments later, listening to Luke and Artur's explanation, I remembered the arm made of metal that had been summoned in the [Book of God]. Looking at him like that, Luke answered Artur's question.

“Yes, < > is autonomous and thinks and acts on his own... so to speak, it's an ultra-high level of usage. Of course, it's only a matter of bearing the name of [God], and it has the power to distinguish itself from normal demons."

"That's right... was it intentional to put < > behind?"

Otherwise, I wouldn't dare reverse it.

Luke laughs again with pleasure at Artur's slightly entertaining question. That's why Luke told me.

"< > is a super advanced golem. Certainly, it has a certain degree of autonomy, but it is not as autonomous as the use of magic, and it is difficult to exercise magic. In terms of combat power alone, it would be overwhelmingly less than the < >."

Hmm. That's right… At first glance, < > and < > seem overwhelmingly superior to < >.

It was a demon that could move without instructions and a golem that could not move satisfactorily without orders from the Lord. I think so for a moment. These two points are raised as the difference between the golem and the demon, and the easy task is the golem. Difficult and complicated work was separated from the use of magic.

"But... this is by no means inferior to < >." Now, let's get back to it. In the process leading to the development of large magic armor, it is almost impossible to pass without talking about this < >. So, what is the biggest characteristic of this < >? < > 's biggest feature is the ability to board. "

I see. It's definitely a large magic armor. Artur's explanation instantly makes sense of it. And it's the same with magic machines,

"In other words, the large magic armor was born in the quest to create the < > with human hands." And as a result of this miniaturization, medium-sized magic armor was created, which is generally the magic armor used by the army and adventurers. "

Is that so? Artur's commentary instantly opened his eyes. That said, it didn't seem to be the case at all, and Artur continued.

"Of course, this is an anecdote. On the contrary, it is the theory that it began with the development of small magic armor and ended with the development of the large magic armor reproduced by < > as the final point of arrival. Since I am not the expert on which argument is correct, I will not mention it here, but at least < > plays an important role in the development of large-scale magic armor."

Now, let's talk about "God" in the "Book of God" we talked about the other day. Artur says that, and describes "God" in the "Book of God" in more detail. Then, for a moment, they were to receive a lecture on the "Book of God" for an hour.
