Survival in Another World With My Master

Episode 309: The Cathedral's Investigation

"Beautiful"

Yes, magnificent.

As they entered the cathedral and looked up at the very high ceilings, the elaborate sculptures, and the stained glasses, Isla and Ifrita spoke positively individually.

"Indeed. But what do you think you're going to say?

"Nh, well, it's never happened. But apart from this. Beautiful things are beautiful."

"I see. I have no idea how many brothers shed blood, sweat and tears to build this cathedral, but I respect the craftsmanship that built this building."

I see.

I don't think so, but the beauty of this cathedral is something else. Well, these two are the only ones who don't really think about the existence of the cathedral itself. As a matter of fact, no subhuman appeared in the cathedral. It is likely that they will hardly approach us.

Conversely, the appearance of human Adolescent followers is sparse. They seem to be watching us. Why are you here? Maybe he thinks it is.

"So, what do you say? Do you know what that is?

"Mana is thinner inside the cathedral than outside."

"I see. It's strange that the magic heals faster."

Both of them are putting out something like a ball of light about the size of a fist in their hand and raising it everywhere. I've heard Isla do similar things in her underground ruins exploration before. It must be the magic of magic sensing.

"Thin, hey. I don't know anything about it."

"Koske has no magic."

"Even if you say it's thin, you'll hardly know unless you use sensing magic. It might feel like the air is clear enough."

I see?

Do you feel the air is clear when the mana is thin? Does that mean you feel like you're starving too much mana? I've never heard anything like that coming out of a rear base with a pulse hole.

"Some of the walls and pillars have a magical response."

"It's a metal used for decoration. Mithrill?

I'll peek into the decor that Isla and Ifrita are paying attention to from behind. I don't know for sure, but it appears to be some kind of alloy metal containing mythrill. Mithrill and gold alloy?

It's plated, but it's a mythrill alloy.

Maybe, but this is a kind of magic circuit.

"Nh, maybe. Maybe the effect is mana diffusion. It can be called purification."

"Instead of gathering magic, is it spreading? What does that mean?

The three of them tilted their necks together. High Priest Caterina stared at us with no expression. It may seem difficult, but he may be a very gentle person.

"High Priest Katerina. In this cathedral, the effects of miracles and the resilience of injuries and illnesses were amplified, right?

"Yes, I will. I hear you've benefited from it."

"I hear so. I was stabbed in the liver with a dagger poisoned by basilisk, but I saved my life."

"Wait a minute? I've never heard that before.

I see. That's what happened. "

"No, why are you alive? Basilisk poison is a poison that can turn dragons upside down, right? What's going on with your vitality?

"Maybe a little tougher than normal people."

Just a little bit. Without this little poison dagger, I would probably have ascended to heaven with renal insufficiency before the basilisk dagger, so I don't have to thank that pleasant criminal for giving me this little bit of robustness.

"I think I've learned that Koske is not the most unusual thing I've ever known."

"Normally he's dying instantly. A life force that won't take a dragon."

"Shouldn't we use his blood and magic pills as ingredients? It could be like the blood of a dragon."

"I'd like you to refrain from talking so loudly about things that seem so inhumane in a sacred church."

Very well, High Priest Katerina, tell me more. Sometimes they replace me with a lab animal, like Ira. I want you to stop doing clinical trials of suspicious medicines because they are sturdy without my consent.

Then he was guided by High Priest Katerina, who looked around the cathedral, and finally led him to a place called the Meditation Room. This is a place where miracle users with more than a certain amount of power use it to practice miracles and perform higher miracles, and it doesn't seem like it's meant to be an outsider.

"The mana is very thick."

"But it's not a normal mana. It's pretty close to the light attributes."

I can see that the detection magic balls that are floating in our hands are reacting violently. Behind the cathedral, during this meditation and in the surrounding room, the mana seemed fairly thick, and as we approached the meditation, detection magic intensified our response. The reaction seems to be climaxing when I come here.

"There is a strong magical response from the light of the cutting cross."

"This is made of Mithrill. It's as if the entire magic of the cathedral is concentrated here."

While listening to the two of you, I will also consider how this cathedral works for me.

Perhaps, but I think this cathedral is a kind of magic cluster. However, the structure is by no means simple. The main hall of the cathedral, which has the largest space, operates a magic circuit that spreads the magic of space and purifies it, which is less dense than the general space. And the important compartment - that is, during this meditation and the surrounding room alone - is so thick that it is not normally conceivable. It seems that the room where Ellen and I used to be taking care of is also very close to this meditation.

"It's not magic equipment."

"Well, I can't find anything like a surgical circuit. It's a light cross made of mythrills."

Isla and Ifrita, who had been investigating the glowing cross - an Adolean holy symbol - that emitted a dense mana, began to roar.

"Something's going to flash..."

The large space that is deliberately spreading and thinning the mana gets caught. Basically, energy and things like that try to maintain equilibrium. If you leave the water as it is, the heat will eventually escape and keep it at room temperature. so that the ice melts and becomes water. If the mana is artificially thin, will it flow in from the surroundings in an attempt to maintain equilibrium?

In other words, does mana in the atmosphere - in this case, mana in the cathedral - attract mana from around the cathedral by spreading and diluting it? It may be captured by using a mythrill-based alloy with high magic conductivity, forming a circuit with high and low magic conductivity of pure mythrills and mythrill-based alloys, and gathering mana during this meditation.

In other words, the light cross emitting magic during this meditation is the end of the circuit composed of the entire cathedral, or is it the output destination of the collected mana?

I came up with a hypothesis.

"Nh, let me hear it."

"Let's hear it."

I roar at my hypothesis that the two people who were bothering my head have just come up with.

"I can't say that's impossible. I've never heard of such a massive magic circuit."

"I'd like to talk to the craftsman who built the Adolphus cathedral."

And Ifrita turned to Catherine high priest, but Catherine high priest shook his neck with a harsh expression.

"Even in a small church, there is only one craftsman in the country who can create such a large cathedral. Given the current relationship between this country and the Holy King, it will be difficult to recruit."

Mmm.

"Can't you just get a blueprint for the cathedral?

"I don't know much about it, but it's hard. I'll try my best to get it, but don't expect it."

"Please do something."

Your hands will do everything you can, so keep your head down and show your gratitude. It is important to properly express your gratitude in words and attitude at these times.

"Couldn't Koske have disassembled the cathedral and looked into it?

"It's unlikely to happen, but if there's any negative impact on the cathedral, you won't even be able to see it. If the cathedral as a whole operates as a magic circuit, it would be better not to do anything bad. And above all, it's kind of hard to disassemble any part of the cathedral that is said to be the base of Adolphyria and investigate it."

"Nh, big problem"

That's true, too.

Ifrita nods honestly to me and Ira. I mean, I don't want you to say too many things because I'm afraid of High Priest Caterina. Look, your eyes are up. I don't intend to do such a rudimentary thing, so please calm your anger.

"Either way, I would have grasped the guiding principles. I've learned that we use deviations in mana concentration, and it's a big deal to get samples of magic circuits that spread mana.

"I see. So let's be satisfied. All we have to do is repeat the experiment."

"N.I 'm going to write a sample of the magic circuit."

The development of mana traps is likely to go a little further now. We then proceeded to investigate the magic circuits that had the effect of reacting and spreading the magic of Mislis alloy running inside the walls and pillars of the cathedral, and we thanked High Priest Caterina for taking the time to guide us and left the cathedral behind.
