The Economics of Prophecy

"This is the bean treat Lisaberto said. It's not bad for the kingdom."

said Mathier, who put the lamb in his mouth.

"Thank you"

Natalie, who came to deliver the yellow sugar for the medium, bowed her head as low as she could get on her knees. We're having tea with the lamb Natalie brought us as a souvenir.

But you have a sight to see how lamb tastes. When I hear beans, there are a lot of people downstairs.

"Wheat is a luxury product in the Empire. Baked bread mixed with beans and soba is normal."

The humans around me are uniformly surprised by what Mathier said. It's hard to imagine an empress eating grain in the kingdom.

Speaking of which, you left Garrett when you questioned the Imperial Palace about Lisaberto. Liza Belt also seemed to prefer lamb. I guess food culture is different from a wheat-centered kingdom. I'm dying to eat some soba noodles. Import it straight from the Empire...... Rejected, it doesn't make sense without soy sauce.

"Ricardo and the others struggled very hard to make this."

Describes when Alfina made lamb for Maitille.

"I heard a little from Lisaberto, but Ricardo has this knowledge, too"

"His Royal Highness Maitir. When it comes to fillings, it was Natalie who struggled. I'm more like in the wrong policy. Thanks to Master Alfina, we were able to salvage it with ice cream."

"I... Isn't it Ricardo who taught me how to do that sky umbrella?"

That's what I said in a hurry. The developer of the filling is Natalie, and I made a clear mistake as a merchant then. Alfina gave me the hang-up to notice it.

"Speaking of which, you heard I put this anchor on a cold treat at Leezaberto's welcome party. Very interesting. Hey, Ricardo, aren't you gonna feed me?

"... His Royal Highness Maitir. That treat is better when it gets a little hotter. And it's very laborious."

"Alas, the kingdom is warm for me. Besides, it must have been winter when Lisaberto was there. First, you must be the one who made Ricardo build that laborious thing. I wonder if I have your permission."

Mathilde alternates between me and Alfina as she explores.

"Well, that's different, though."

Alfina mumbled and looked at me like Natalie was in trouble. The topic of ice cream makes the place cold.

"This tea is good too. It goes well with the rustic flavors. The kingdom's meal is too considerate."

Mayteel does not hesitate to carry green tea into his mouth. It's elegant, but it looks really delicious. Hmm, future as an export to the Empire...... That's not the case.

I look to the other members for help. Noel has secured the most remote seat. Fulsey left me alone. Meer sighs small.

"So I'd definitely like to taste the ice cream that smells like this tea."

I'm exposed to some kind of gaze that's poured out of my surroundings, and Maytelle's demands are pushed even further.

"... what if I could have a prototype to start making today?

"Yeah. Well, that's good."

In a remote seat, Noel nodded at Meer. I know what you two are trying to say in general with your expressions.

It's not chocolate, it's not chocolate. If this motivates you, it's cheap. Rather, it is good enough to say that it is a negotiated victory to make the Imperial Empress work in about ice cream.

"We have to work hard."

Mathier said he would eat the last slice. I got up. I left the room as I was. Noel rushed after me to Maitille. Fulsey also lifted her hips.

"Was Master Alfina the Cathedral from now on"

I spoke to the rest of Alfina. Perhaps he bothered to drop by where he should go straight to the cathedral.

………… Ah!... Yes, it is "

A week after the last one, I'm fine. The signal interval hasn't shrunk.

"Though..."

"I know. Isn't Ricardo the one who's in trouble? I have to get in between. I'm sorry I can't help you."

"Because I'm just comfortable that Master Alfina cares. I don't know what I'm going to do without realizing it. By the way, have you noticed anything?

My self-assessment of interpersonal relationships has always been dismal.

"... no. I'm a little worried, because Ricardo is always the same. It's just that His Royal Highness Maitir..."

"His Royal Highness Mathilde?

I'm a little nervous about my usual routine, but is there something wrong with Mathier? It's obvious in my eyes too, but what I see in Alfina and I should be completely different. Communion is so advanced and professional. Let me tell you something.

"Ricardo. A little of the princess's feelings -"

"Klau, because I was entrusted with it. See how things go a little bit more, Ricardo."

Alfina smiled when she told me that. And he left the room with Claudia staring at me. That's a problem to be too burdensome for Alfina. Because it's supposed to be hard to just talk about prophecy.

"I want to make a prototype to verify whether it is possible to apply magic to wavelengths and colors as planned"

Fulsey, Noel, Meer. And Mayteel, a helper foreigner. I checked my purpose again. Everyone nodded. Everyone is honest and cooperative when it comes to magic.... well better than the other way around.

"There are three kinds of things you need: a source of magic, a prism that refracts magic, and a magic sensing sensor. It's like a rainbow of light."

I keep explaining as I write the picture of Prism on the tablet.

"First of all, the source of magic is good because it uses magic crystals, but the problem is it hits the prism."

I saw Mathilde.

I wonder what's going on with the dragon crystal.

"Ready"

Mathier asked Fulsey. Fulsey removed a transparent round object wrapped in cloth from the crate. It's about the size of a softball ball. Dragon crystals, literally like crystals of dragon eyeballs. I see, the eye of the Warcraft who can see the colour of the Demon Vessel? Convinced.

"I don't specialize in machining, so I need your help. I'm sure Noel's an alchemist."

"Yes, sir"

Noel said.

"Yes. If you have the best alchemist in the kingdom, you'll be fine. I depend on you."

"... not Kingdom One. Yes, I'll do my best."

Noel became upright immovable. He's like a man. I want majesty as a senior in the lab.

"At the end of the day, it's a sensor for measuring magic."

"I think it would be nice to have some demon paper."

Fulsey took out the black paper.

"It's a piece of paper that senses the magic of the past. Which..."

"This, touch inadvertently"

"What is this, wow, it's stained even though I'm not particularly aware of it"

Maitille looked at the sensational demon paper with the finger marks and rounded her eyes. How much do you think it costs?

"You can ask Noel to install it later."

"Well, there are limits to alchemy."

Noel says clearly that he is also alert. Why are you more alert than Maythir was earlier? Don't worry, it's easier than a micropipette.

I wrote a shitty schematic on the tablet. Simply put, it's a platform with a hole in it on a regular basis. Round bars that fit the size of that hole. It is a part that can be screwed to adjust the angle and position attached to the rod.

The precise adjustment of subtle distances and angles is the life of this hand experiment. I thought back to the memory of an experimental instrument when I did a quantum eraser experiment in a college class in my previous life.

"That's funny."

"There's no such thing as a trick."

"I am, though. You're thorough enough to make it easier to make a trial and error somehow."

"Well, it's normal people who make mistakes over and over."

"Forget the joke. The only thing that weighs is demonic crystals?

Mathier kicked my word. No, these notions actually got me into repeated failures. I'm done before I'm born with failures over your age.

Well, it's a case where we need to draw on Maytelle's knowledge. The first object of measurement is something not found in the kingdom.

"No, I want to compare two things: a normal demonic crystal and an imperial deep red demonic crystal. So I want to know about the Deep Red Demon Crystal."

"In exchange for how to make that magic catalyst, as promised. By the way, I am a prisoner, because no matter how many secrets I may know, I may not be able to return to my country alive. You first."

"The kingdom has no advantage in another war with the Empire.... I know. They must be ready downstairs."

Actually, I got lost, but the secret to high energy magic resources should definitely be heavy. Besides, given the crystal of prophecy, I definitely want knowledge of high-energy magic.
