The Economics of Prophecy

Four story policy shifts

After that, I walked into the ”understatement room" with Luitzer and watched how Alfina was doing until morning. In response to Louisa, I explain that I have more serious questions about the strain the crystal is putting on Alfina.

I know it's cowardly, but I concentrated on the story of what I would do to keep Alfina safe. And he also asked me to look into the data that might be generated by having that room.

Of course, if Alfina can make me do it, I'm not going to deny what I did, or make excuses. My actions at that time were definitely those of a man of inferiority. I'd like to think that's not all, but that was definitely the case at that moment.

Above all, if the next time something like this happens, I'm not sure I'll do the same thing.

Of course, I don't see the feeling of taking care of Alfina as fundamentally contradictory to having desires as a woman. But now I've decided to focus on Alfina's safety and on the crystal disaster anyway.

Then two days later. There's Alfina walking towards me in the hallway of the Grand Duke's mansion in the morning. At the same time as I'm relieved of a firm foothold, my heartbeat is disturbed by the approaching since that night.

"Oh, Ricardo -"

"Dear Alfina, Good morning."

Guilt, worry, and the urge to come to mind without sexual punishment. With feelings, I greeted Alfina. Carefully, take a step further than usual.

"... good morning. Ricardo."

Alfina returns my greetings. A harder smile than usual.

"How are you feeling?"

I remember Alfina looking bitter in front of the crystal that night.

"It's okay. Ricardo... you're worried."

Rather, the look that guides this one inspires guilt and another emotion as well.

When I walk out the front door, I notice that there are two carriages available. I notice that one of them is marked with a cathedral. I was in a hurry.

"Have you heard from me again?"

It's only been three days since the last crystal reaction. Has the interval narrowed?

"No. But last time I seemed to be able to touch the image of prophecy in a little while, so it's no surprise that next time I'm sooner. So."

"But don't push it."

'Cause I'm the only one who can do it.

Alfina made a slightly troubled face.

"The next disaster could involve a lot of people, right? I want to do everything I can."

"But for that reason, Alfina is overburdened..."

"Because if there is a great calamity, it would be dangerous for me myself. It's not human resources."

Alfina pointed to herself. Undeniable. There are two dangers in this case, one of which is, of course, disaster itself. The other is the so-called scapegoat.

"So whatever I do about the prophecy, I'll be ready to measure the mountains of blood as soon as possible."

".................. I get some decent primary information. Isn't that fundamental?"

Alfina told me to hold me back. Undeniable. It will not be inefficient to base ourselves on insufficient information, anything more inefficient than that would be nothing short of asking for perfect information.

"And that sight..."

"Master Alfina?

"No, Ricardo is the one who's not very impotent, is he? I'm more worried about Ricardo than I've ever been."

To Alfina's words, I had to keep my mouth shut. But......

"Senior"

Meer pulls my sleeve. Luiza stands in front of me.

"We also need to respect Alfina's thoughts. I'll pack it in that room just in case."

Luetua said. That's what Euphilia tells me. Correct as a response, somewhat reassuring, but not fundamental.

"Vinder, the material you were talking about is difficult by nature, but I'll look into it."

Luetua whispered in my ear.

"... ok"

I'll get in the carriage to the college. Me and Alfina's carriage, who left the gate in line, break up at the next corner. Alfina gets information about the disaster from the crystal, and I make a way to proceed with the analysis of the demonic pulse fluctuations. I know that is a realistic and reasonable policy.

Just because crystals are dangerous, this world is not made so that we can only deal with crystals themselves.

But......

"... Whatever the calamity of prophecy, we need the power to repel it"

I snapped as I looked through the back window of Alfina's carriage. At the end of the day, there's no doubt that power says things. How do you get that power?

◇ ◇

Senior Leonardo, who had asked us earlier about measuring crystals, is now struggling in another room to put the report together. In any case, quite forcefully, in many ways, it is a measurement of the crystal, which is no longer a national treasure, screwed. The impatience being blamed by the royal palace has also been conveyed here.

"... the results of the crystal measurements are as we have already given them. As far as I'm concerned, I think there's a high risk of crystals. I want to rush the research as much as possible. I want to get my hands on improving my magic wand."

I lost my voice in front of the rest of the lab.

"I'm not worried that the princess will be burdened more than ever. … but I don't think my last policy was wrong"

Fulsey said with a difficult face.

"... oh, but"

I glanced at Mathilde for a moment.

"I'd like to move a little more aggressively if I could"

Making the hypothesis of disaster a little sooner, securing the ultimate means of countering disaster, which I find unpleasant if we do not proceed in parallel. The latter, at this stage the greatest force within reach, is the improvement of the magic wand that produces that spirulitis. At least we have to consider only that possibility.

"Specifically? The management of the magic wand has been transferred to the magic dorm..."

Noel lurked his voice. At the stage where Maitille decided to come here, the study magic wand that was in the lab has also been transferred to the magic guiding dormitory. Originally, the magic wand received from the Empire was a loot of the First Knights.

By the way, there was no progress in the analysis of the incapable magic wand. Our policy was first of all basic research for the measurement of the demonic pulse, so there was no difference.

But when I saw that figure of Alfina, I couldn't say that anymore. As far as Euphoria is concerned, the move towards a new agreement with the Empire has not progressed as slowly as expected. No, you just decided to send a messenger to the Empire for once?

"There must be an improvement you can make without the magic wand itself. Reinforce the nature of the circuit itself, not the surgical formula. There's a magic expert here..."

I saw Maityle shut up. Originally, she was the one rushing for applied research, not basics.

"I'm glad you cared about that, but you mean betray my country?

"Oh, I don't. If the calamity is massive, so is the empire..."

"That's a good chance. But it's still possible at the moment. We haven't even received the results of the spectrum analysis of the demonic vein."

I said, "The ancient dragon's eye is dangerous."

"I did say that. But I don't know why the user of the ancient dragon's eye stopped using it. I mean, guess this too. In fact, His Highness Alfina is standing and walking on his own feet, isn't he? That's not the side effect of this."

Mathier opened his right hand when he said so. There is a tattoo of the Magic Guide, although much smaller than the Horse Dragon Knight. Even I saw the swollen arms of the Empire's captives.

"That's right..."

"I've also seen the measurements. Wavelength further outward than deep red. But isn't the amount of magic itself that big?

"No, that's... not quantity, no, quantity, but I think quality is the problem... That's Alfina... Dear..."

I'm in a hurry.

"First of all, Ricardo is looking a little strange from that measurement.... Is it possible that I am misjudged by being swayed by personal feelings?

"I'm not saying that I don't... I intend to be calm."

"Yeah, you don't deny that your mind is disturbed in itself..."

Mathier looked me in the eye and smiled sarcastically. And shrugged my shoulders.

"Then explain to me why Ricardo is worried. If you're not comfortable with that explanation, you can consider cooperating. It's difficult in my position, but I might be able to do some work for my country through Lisaberto."

Mathier with a flipped attitude. Oh well, is she the only one who can give an opinion just now on this occasion?

…………

"What, it's such a serious secret"

"No, I'm not. I was just glad His Royal Highness Mathilde was here."

"Ha!... I'm just interested in Ricardo's information."

Mathier panicked for some reason. No, because I already know that. Well, I think the information we're about to talk about is a bit, no, too different from the stuff that Maitille expects. The biggest problem is that I don't understand myself.

Anyway, it's a relationship between information, energy and wavelength. It will mean a physical definition of information.

"Simply put, the prophecy's ultra-high-density” information "is an ultra-high-density” wavelength, "and it's called ultra-high” energy. "

I spoke suspiciously of my own understanding. Of course, the three of them will all look kyotonous. Come on, how do I explain this?
