Accord cannon trials will be successful, and researchers and technicians who were there will begin analyzing the data.

On the other hand, Solomon and the others and Slayman, nobility and eight magicians. The chief development officer was expanding the Accord Cannon materials in separate rooms of the research facility and in the development room to discuss future operations and mass production.

Early departing from a small difficult discussion about statehood, Mira had identified various objects arranged on the shelves of the room. Because it was nothing but unfamiliar objects.

"Well, it's Thoma. The first stage seems to have been successfully activated. Doesn't that seem like a problem?

"Yes. The recoil is also completely controlled. I was wondering if I could do the least I could."

Thoma, the chief, replies confidently, Solomon nods satisfactorily.

"By the way, what is happening to the mass-producers? In the future, my Wellesley family will spare no investment."

When one of the nobles embarked on himself, all in all the other nobles also expressed their willingness to affirm.

"That's..."

With that said, Thoma clouds her expression to dismay, presenting a single piece of material on her desk. That material describes the bullet in the accord cannon, and the procurement of the substance that is the driving force.

"As you can see here, Accord Cannon will need one refined stone and two demon sealed stones in a single launch"

And the principle of accord cannon was explained by Thoma.

To summarise its contents, we first need refining stones as bullets. And the force that could be put into that bullet was that it was extracted from the demon seal stone.

First of all, a refining stone is an artifact made by multiplying several materials with properties that can retain a special force, which is very easy to retain and adjust.

Demon-sealed stones become a generic term for objects that seal some kind of power on substances that can retain such power.

The accord cannon was a device that extracted and amplified the force entrapped in the magic seal stone and fired it. The bullet refining stone is used to impart directivity to the runoff of orbitless forces amplified to the extreme. Otherwise, it acts like a firing lightning rod.

The raging force is drawn to the refining stone, which is easier to retain its strength, and flies as it destroys it. The larger the refining stone, the longer it will take to be destroyed, so its range will also increase.

And one more thing. In order to activate the Accord Cannon, a Magic Stone of Thunder Attributes will be required. That means electric.

"That's why I don't have a problem with mass production if you can help me, but this refining stone and demon sealing stone are the problem."

That said, Thoma exhales loudly. Refined and demonic sealed stones. This is something that requires special production skills. Magic seal stones are sometimes found in nature, but refined stones are complete artifacts. Technicians need to create it.

Thomas said the problem was how to procure thunderous demon sealing stones and refining stones that he would always need.

There are several people in the kingdom of Alkite who possess the skill to create refining stones. However, it can only be made to the lower level, and the demon seal stone can be operated to a minimum. But even with all that limitation, the accord cannon performs well.

Mass production is possible. Low grade, but I can handle the bullets. But that means that only the minimum performance of the accord cannon can be achieved. Thomas, who has spent a long time developing it, stares at the material with regret if he cannot let my child do all he can.

"That would solve it."

Solomon, with a delightful look on his face, lines up some gems on the table as the clouds pass on Thomas' expression. Some of them emitted a pale light.

"This is..., turquoise and moonstone, isn't it? And this..., is it a demon seal stone? But, Master Solomon, it doesn't seem any different than ordinary things, but how can we solve them?"

Turquoise and moonstone. Many of these natural gemstones are used in a variety of other applications besides decoration because of their power retention properties. And it's a jewel, or demonic seal, in which some pale and glowing objects have resided their power.

Those arranged by Solomon were not so common gems as rare. Everyone therefore questions the words of Solomon, but those who are on the spot who have heard so many thoughtful words and deeds before have a magical continuation.

Yes, this way.

"What. What the hell!?

A bareback girl's voice echoes from the corner of the room. Everyone's gaze pours on the girl.

Solomon, with a pleasant expression, blows out small with his eyes like that. Because Mira is hugged by Luminaria and rammed in its chest as if she were a child.

Mira, who was lowered in front of the table, stares at the luminaria as if she were roaring "Guru..." but falls behind in realizing that her gaze is gathering on herself more than that.

"So, what can I do for you?

"I'm sorry. I need to ask you something."

I'm sorry at all. With a smile on his face, Solomon said so. When he takes some of the gems on the table, everyone's gaze moves into that hand.

"Mira, could you turn this into a refinery stone"

The hand offered to Mira has two turquoises and three moonstones.

"Mm, what. Is that what this is about?"

In Mira's hand, which she tried to stretch to receive, was a model of an inappropriate robot that had been placed on the shelf. It's a red robot on your right and a blue robot on your left. It was tagged with the merging robot, so it was hugged by the luminaria on the way around trying to merge.

…………

"Uh... Shall I keep it"

"... um, please"

In an indescribable silence, when Slayman modestly reached out from the side, Mira, who answered small, handed him an inappropriate robot that made a rattling noise.

When Mira receives the gem with her free hand, Luminaria comes next with a large plate. When several magicians in robes hold the edge to help, they place it on the table.

"Is this a refinery station"

When Thomas sees a board with countless shapes and symbols placed on the table, he puts the name of that board in his mouth.

A refinery is a technique used to refine items. Graphics that reveal decomposition, bonding, degeneration, conversion, and compression form a complex combination formation.

"Are you going to start refining? Wouldn't it take a little while?

Yes, Edward asks. This technology makes accustom, experience and comprehension important, and can reduce time by increasing them. But even the owner of the best refining technology currently in the Kingdom of Alkite, it takes thirty minutes to create one refining stone.

Other aristocrats and magicians who have an understanding of refining also nod at Edward's words.

"Well, if you look at it, you'll see. Come on, Mira. I asked for it."

"Damn, I could already tell."

Mira standing in front of the refinery table complaining about bumps. In the corner of his gaze are two robots placed at the corner of the table. I almost knew how to merge. So in an effort to finish early, Mira lined up the gem on the refinery table and put her hands in a fixed position.

After a little while, the formation starts to glow pale. Finely manipulate the subtle force insertion and the type of shapes to be activated to disassemble the gem, extract and compress and bond only the properties that retain the force. In a shivering, glowing light, the gem turns into another substance.

For a short time from the start, Mira takes her hand off the refinery table.

"Ah! Don't let go of my hand on the way to refining......!

Thomas said as he panicked, but when he saw a particle of light swirling from the refinery table and stopped moving, he stared breathlessly at the top of the table.

"Ko... this is...!

There was only one large grain of clear stone on top of a refinery that lined up a number of gems when the light subsided.

Thomas gazes so close at his face that he is likely to stick to its transparent stone with a look he sees even in incredible objects.

"This is a refined stone...... Oh no... I can't believe this much stuff can be made in such a short time..."

Thomas couldn't help but be surprised. Mira made the refining stone without taking a minute.

"I told you I was a disciple of Dumblrf. Mira inherits everything."

Solomon who can deflect his chest with dignity as if it were his own handles. It's obvious because he's more of an inheritor than an inheritor, but Mira also doesn't argue and affirms that it would be just fine on an excuse because it's not to be told.

And this technology is the production skill [refining] that Dumbleffe has knitted. Special forces, that is, techniques for extracting, fusing and fixing various attribute and correction forces. It can be technically strengthened by anchoring the special force that resides in the gem in the equipment, or vice versa by extracting the force that resides in the equipment and trapping it in the gem.

The allowable amount is determined for each gem, but by refining (...) multiple gems, you can create refined stones like this one. This refined stone is valuable and treasured because it has more tolerance than gems.

Mira is the leader if she changes her appearance. The habits, experience and comprehension that affect efficiency are above all else. Therefore, the working time is also reduced proportionately.

"I heard that refining technology was created by Master Dumbleffe, but even your disciples aren't as good as they are going to be"

Thomas turns his gaze from the refining stone to Mira. The girl in its eyes may be the one who lets you maximize the performance of the accord cannon. Thoma thought so, exciting her whole body about emotions that were also similar to the excitement boiling from the bottom of her heart.

"Then Mira. Will you then put this together in its refining stone?"

When Solomon puts the three demon sealing stones on the refinery table, Mira answers with a word, "Hmm," and repositions the demon sealing stones and starts refining again.

Next time the light subsided without waiting for a minute, there remained on the refinery table a radiant refinery stone, infused with the force extracted from the demonic seal stone.

"This will do."

"Oh, enough"

Solomon nods contentedly with the newly created magic seal stone in his hand. It can be seen that the refined magic seal stone possesses a strong light and considerable power, unlike the previous one.

"This will give you a glimpse into refined and demon-sealed stones."

Saying so, Solomon gives Thomas the demon seal stone.

"Yes, of course it's enough!

Thoma replied with a smile as she put the received demon seal stone on her palm with care.

When everyone started discussing the operation of the Accord Cannon in greater depth, Mira took the robot on the table and sat down in the corner of the room, and started chattering again. Then comes a man in a robe to Mira like that.

"Mira. Can you just talk to him for a second?

"Because I'm busy right now, later."

Mira, who is passionate, replies without distracting herself from the robot's moving parts. Robe's man gave in with a slightly troubled face and begged him to "manage there".

Mira exhales one and then turns to the man. The man there was a beautiful young man wearing a blue and black robe and a shiny blonde, neat face about his shoulder. And Mira looks familiar to that face.

"No, Cleos?

"Oh, you know me?

Of course it's my first meeting in Mira.

Cleos is a half of the Light Spirit and Elf, one of the subordinates of the Tower of Summoning who used to bring him around all the time in the Dumbluff era because he did not need light even in dark dungeons with the special abilities of the Light Spirit.

"Ah, my master told me."

Mira, who put it in her mouth without any thought, makes a hard excuse to know as soon as she looks at her face. "Was it," Cleos smiled a little happily.

"Once again, then, Summoning Tower Elder proxy. It's Cleos."

"Mira."

The two greet each other so succinctly. Immediately after that, Mira recalls the words that were in Cleos' words.

"Speaking of which, after Elder disappeared from Glaia, I heard he was acting on his behalf, but was your lord so"

"I'm half forced, it's a pressed form. I was recommended to spend the longest time adventuring with Mr. Dumbleffe. Well, everyone else is similar."

"Well, did you?"

Mira also remembers taking Cleos around the most out of that convenience. But that would also be a good selection criterion. Speaking of strength alone, Cleos, who had taken him all the way out to the place of death, would be the best of the subpoena tower squire.

Other Elder deputies are the same thing, and if they take the finest field around, they can gain strength even if they don't like it.

"By the way, does your Lord not have to join the story? It's an important weapon, isn't it?

Mira says so and turns her gaze to the Solomons we are discussing at the table.

"I don't mind that. We on behalf of Elder are just here to see how good Accord Cannon is."

"Not us. So did they all take their place?"

Redirect your gaze to the magicians in robes lined up against the wall. Everyone seemed less interested than Cleos and more interested in thoughts.

"I'm done talking about the important stuff, and now it seems like it's about mass production. Because the neighborhood belongs to Lord Solomon and the nobles."

"So you came to me."

When Mira says so, she puts her gaze back on the robot at hand and starts exploring the merging point by turning and folding the parts again.

Later, they continued their conversation without any other love, but Mira continued to hammer with a bitter smile as in the end the content of Cleos' talk had become foolish about how unscrupulous he had been taken to Dumblrf.
