Sword of the Philosopher

Research Facilities

First, I went where the king told me to go. It's connected in the hallway with the castle building, but it seemed like a stand-up building, like an annex, in a different place despite the castle grounds.

Straight down the hallway, there are two open doors and a staircase leading upstairs to the right. First I put my hand on the door. Beyond that was the... hall.

In a deep hall, perhaps because it was used as a research facility, the long desks line up reasonably well. Plus there was a separate room on that corner, and a peek there seemed like an office. Spread the word again, I have a little idea.

"... the fact that we're going to be working with angels and stuff naturally means we're going to need some clerical work."

When that happens, can't we simply bring here people who do research or who become warriors?

Do we just need to rely on the castle people for clerks...? I don't know because the circumstances are the same.

"Should I consult with the King again at a later date"

So whine, think and see the talent you need. Clerks, researchers, fighters… how many will be needed.

Even though I know this is what organizing is all about, I think it sounds kind of hard. In the first place, I led a lot of people, but I rarely belong to an organization like this to do anything. I don't know what to do.

"You don't have to worry so deeply."

and the voice of the garc echoing inside my head. By the way, the main body has already returned to the woods and is preparing for a battle in the demonic world.

'You can count on me, Feus, etc. Let us work together in a slight way'

"Not a slight force at all... and relying on Garc and Devals."

If we were to fight 'God' in full in the future, naturally the power of spirits and angels would be great. It will definitely be there to be the main force, and there is not much room for action on the human side...... maybe.

"Me and Sophia are certainly getting stronger, but can the rest of us reach that level... and getting that much help -"

"I don't know about the will to fight unless I ask the person. But if I ask you, Lord Leon, I think you'll snort. '

"In a reliable sense?

"I don't know how far Lord Luon is aware of this, but the title of hero is quite significant among those who have been associated with you on this continent."

... Certainly conscious, no. But based on what Sophia and I have done, there seems to be plenty of potential to say, "Let's cooperate."

'And one more thing... this is just a hunch'

"A hunch?"

'Um, the battle against those who are called gods... I'm thinking this probably cannot be countered unless you are human'

"... on what grounds?

'It's just a hunch. Spirits and angels… there are clear weaknesses in such beings. For example, if you are a spirit, you are basically weak in temper. That's why I couldn't even get out strong when the Demon King invaded. I, the Spirit of God, would not have such an impact, but I cannot escape this weakness'

"I mean, when 'God' comes after those weaknesses,"

"Uhm. It's weaknesses that can be countered...... in this case in a magical way, but I think that humans with no weaknesses will be the trump card"

"If that hypothesis is correct, we may have to devise ways to train."

I walk in the hall whining. There was a staircase leading to the basement, where there was almost the same size of space.

However, this one has different material on the wall. It has the effect of playing magic. Probably used it in laboratory applications from not divulging magic externally.

"It sounds like it could be a training ground... but considering who you're fighting, you want to do everything you can. If you're in a castle, it's hard to fight with all your might."

"I have a plan for that."

"Proposal?"

"Um, you'll need a place to train, so I talked to Lord Devals once."

When... When I went up the stairs and back to the original hall, there were multiple figures. Sophia and escort Eina. And the other...

"That, Devals"

"Hey, Mr. Luon."

Rumor has it. Hands up. Devals approaching this way.

"I came to say my last greeting, too, trying to pull it up once to get ready"

"Right. The next time we meet, when we assemble locally in a place with a demonic door?

"No, I'll show my face here once before then...... so I thought I'd do one last thing"

'That's what we talked about before, isn't it?

When Gark appeared on my right shoulder and asked, Devals responded, "Exactly."

"So, it's kind of a place... yeah, can I get around here"

Devals stopping by the wall. As he wondered what he was willing to do, he put his hand against the wall.

Immediately after that, the light covers the wall. When me and Sophia were watching... the light went out and the door appeared.

"Uh, what's that?

"I can't have a door in this castle that leads to heaven or anything. So they let us create different spaces in a way that suits this castle."

Approaching the door listening to his words. And when I opened it, there was a vast hall inside.

Much bigger than the facility we're in. Besides, the walls in the hall apparently play magic... or maybe have the properties to block them.

"By the way, if this space breaks into some kind of clap, I'm going to be forced back into that room. with what's in the room."

That's what Devals said, laughing nicely.

"Well, I wouldn't be in such a state of emergency. The heavenly realm has used the generated technology as it is, and I hope you use it fully."

... You can't make the heavenly doors here, so you're saying we should create different spaces and do combat training there, etc. Much appreciated as for this one.

But I thought again that Devals, who can make such a space light, still has tremendous power...

Then I'll go back to heaven once I've done what I did.

"... what's the favor you said?

"Not until this battle is over. It's about 'God' for once, but as Mr. Luon, you're not gonna do something that's not gonna end this fight, are you?

Right...... Devals raised his hand when this one nodded and left early enough.

"As for the facility, you're fine"

Sophia says. I nod small and decide to look around elsewhere.

After the second floor, there is a study such as that used for the materials room, or a private room to sleep in. You mean so that I can immerse myself in the work while I'm staying? There are other spaces like the dining room, and you're going to be able to live here.

"Do you have a candidate about personnel?

Sophia asks the lid. I thought about it a little bit.

"The first person in my mind is telling King Claudius. But I don't know if they'll agree, and I don't know if the castle will admit it."

After shrugging my shoulders, I looked around the hall,

"This is the new hub... I never thought I'd be operating in the castle, but this might be the right place to think about the future"

"Master Luon may feel cramped..."

"I can't help it there. Besides, it's never a bad story... rather, it might be necessary"

Getting ready to challenge 'God'... we were going to prepare for the battle and move on to the next phase.
