Survival in Another World With My Master

Episode 304: Magically Spread the Wings of Imagination

"Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm..."

Ira and Ifrita helped me make a list of all kinds of magic. In addition to the four major attributes of fire, water, wind, and earth, this book describes the magic of light heat and dissolved heat, ice snow and cold air, lightning strikes and poisonous smoke, rock gravel and metal magic, magic of the magic bullet system that handles magic that does not have attributes attached to it, magic of the mental system that handles floating, fall control, etc., and many other magic lists and effects that do not belong to the four attributes magic.

Should I say it's my own magic book?

"This is light thermal magic, right?

"No, magic bullet system. As a result, it also generates heat, but it's not converted into photothermal magic and released."

"But..."

Ifrita and Isla are having a heated debate about the classification and systematization of magic, but instead of joining you, I'm even looking at the magic list and expanding my imagination about what I can do and what I can possibly do.

For example, magic, called a thermal system or a photothermal system, is very interesting. It exists in the atmosphere of magic, but it is invisible, converting the energy that is inexhaustible into thermal energy with high efficiency. Oh, no, there seems to be a lot of debate about whether it is highly efficient, but it is very interesting that it can extract powerful thermal energy without using fuels such as firewood, coal, gas, and liquefied fuels.

If this means that the magic in the atmosphere is truly exhausted and never depleted, it is likely that we will be able to realize our dream of a permanent institution. If the magic that exists in the atmosphere does not have enough power, there are pulse holes where magic springs out from the ground to the point of exhaustion. If we can secure the pulse hole and use the magic that springs out of the inexhaustible more efficiently, we must be able to make a lot of progress.

Even the rear base uses the magic that springs out of the pulse hole, but the use scale is such that a small part of the vast geothermal and geyser springs that spring up are used for bathing and cooking. The development and availability of magical engines equivalent to advanced geothermal power plants must be a major force in the development of the Kingdom of Merinard.

Hmm, but there's no military trick.

I'd also like to think about convenience for work and life. For example, it would be nice to have a technique that lowers the operating cost of magic equipment. I feel that mana drain belonging to the mental magic system that takes magic from this object and makes it my own can be used as a solar panel magic collector - mana trap if it works well.

It seems to be quite advanced magic, but I think it seems to incorporate a control technique that eats magic fools like the recoil control technique that was built into wind magic. I heard the story of Mana Drain from both of them, and it seems that adjusting and capturing the magic wavelength in order to break through the magic resistance of others and take away the magic, and then use it as my own, is a neck that greatly increases the difficulty of magic.

If you only collect magic that drifts in the atmosphere, you won't need a technique to break through the magic resistance of others, and if you only collect magic that drifts in the atmosphere, you won't need to adjust the wavelength.

No, do we need to homogenize the quality of magic? No matter what kind of monster magic stone or magic crystal stone is made from it, most magic tools seem to function normally, so don't you need to worry about that?

But, if you can, you might want to do a lot more. It is problematic that the quality of magic iron and magic steel made at the rear base is not stable, and perhaps the quality of magic leaking out of the pulse hole is not homogeneous.

But there's no need to incorporate homogenization circuits into each collector at the magic gathering stage. Collect magic on a large scale with a large number of magic collectors and gather it in one place. It should be more efficient to install a large-scale adjustment device that homogenizes the quality of magic at the concentration point and distribute it to the place where it should be used. It would be better if some were of a capacitive nature to store homogenized magic. Anyway, first of all, it seems good to make small things on a scale and try and make various mistakes.

"That's the face that's thinking about something interesting."

"Are you okay? It only looks like you're smiling thinly."

"It's gonna be fun."

"That's right. This is gonna be fun."

First of all, it may be good to aim to turn the castle into an all-electric magical instrument. Of course, there is no guarantee that you will be able to create something safe and secure from the beginning, so the trouble that will occur will be a good case study.

In the meantime, should we develop mana traps that collect magic from the atmosphere, mana traps that homogenize magic, and mana batteries that can save a lot of magic? I hope you have all kinds of magic equipment that correspond to it. Lighting, heating and cooling, cookers, workbenches, defensive weapons and traps. If you can use your magic in abundance, you don't have to fire a metal bullet to cast the magic itself.

"Fufufufufu... my arms are ringing"

Light magic equipment already exists, but we need to refill it with magic, that's it. If the magic is automatically supplied, the maids who maintain the castle will have less trouble. If you can use magic equipment like a cooler for heating and cooling, your life will be comfortable, and cooking will be easier if you have a magic stove where you can adjust the firepower in an incremental way. If you can use machine tools and automatic rotating grindstones to maintain metal tools and weapons, you'll be able to make progress.

The Golem workbench I'm using is too dangerous for the general public. It's good to have magic engines using Magic Stones on board, but Isla and the others say that magic engines using Magic Stones are dangerous materials that blow up the surrounding area if handled badly.

In that regard, there is no need to worry about explosions in various machine tools using mana traps. Probably not. It's actually safe. In other words, depending on the output of the mana trap, a massive magic accumulation may be possible without securing a pulse hole. However, if the magic in the atmosphere diminishes, there is a possibility that there will be some kind of impact on the human body, or that there will be some significant impact on the surrounding natural environment. It will be necessary to look carefully at the course and its impact. In fact, I don't know if the magic in the atmosphere is really exhausted.

"By the way, what about spiritual magic and miracles?

"Spirit magic has no shape like this. Of course, it is limited by the attributes of the Spirit who borrows power, but in the end, it is a magic that conveys the image of the magician to the Spirit, and the Spirit causes phenomena based on that image."

"There are everything from classic magic like flying an arrow to natural disaster level magic. It also changes greatly depending on the image of the magician, the character of the spirit to be used, and the amount of magic given to the spirit by the magician. Spirit wizards have a lot of sensuals, so it's difficult to organize the system of spiritual magic."

"I see... what a miracle?

"Miracles are somewhat systematic, but they're also close to spiritual magic."

"Nh. I think that's the same as spiritual magic. However, the quality of the spirits used is different. Closer to roots."

"Root cause?"

When I hear words I'm not used to hearing, or I don't know, I accidentally tilt my neck.

"The root of magic, the root of magic, well, that's what it looks like. Something bigger than the Spirit, which is a mass of magic, the source of magic, the ruler, the mother of the Spirits, or..."

"God can also be said. No one has seen it. But I feel it every day. Especially, we magicians feel its existence strongly by touching the magic ceremony."

"... yeah! I don't know!

Of course.

"Koske can't use magic and can't feel magic. I can't help it."

For some reason, they looked very gently at me. Stop staring at that stupid kid. It's going to damage my mind.

"Either way, miracle magic is impossible. Just like spiritual magic."

I see. Then ordinary magic is the best. Versatile, it's convenient that you can do whatever you want, regardless of when and where you use it. "

"Nh, that's Koske. I know."

"I don't hate spiritual magic either."

"I'd like to reach out to the Spirit Magic one day. Let's start with mana traps. Give us both a hand."

"Mana trap?

The two magicians leaned their heads. Speaking of which, you haven't explained anything yet. Let's talk about my idea first.
