The Economics of Prophecy

"Ricardo!.................. Princess of the crystal. Long time no see, Your Highness Alfina."

Mathier, who was already in Fulsey's room, said. Mathier hasn't seen Alfina in a long time either, but it feels softer than before to see the look on her face.

"Long time no see, Your Highness. Looks like Ricardo took a lot of care of you across the Great River. Thank you."

Alfina responds as politely as before.

"Oh, there's no reason for you to say that. And I was better helped by Ricardo."

Mathier started talking about fighting that demon bug. I can't figure out if I popped up in front of a demon bug to help Mathilde or something. Alfina's face clouded thanks to it. I told you some things, but you said you were blurry around there...

"Yes, we revealed the night in the same room."

Mathier also added that it was outrageous.

"No, that just made the investigation all night. It wasn't just the two of us."

I waved my hand a boom and denied it. At that time, I want to tell you not to use the morning, which became frozen, including Crane, so much for joke stories.

"Well, if that's what you're saying, it's me too... In my case, we were alone at first."

But Alfina said something against it. I looked around and asked him to do something about it, but no one would send me a rescue ship. I mean, Claudia shouldn't stop talking about bombs......

"That's not a crystal investigation either."

As a result of the collision between the two claims, it settled me to the conclusion that they were both a disaster entanglement task. While you're letting me sweat cold...

"... well, don't worry, Ricardo's overprotective, so I won't be too burdensome on you"

Mathier said. Regardless of the provocative way of putting it, I have to thank you. Mathier is no longer a hostage, but an imperial representative of joint R&D in both countries. If she demanded Alfina's burden on account of the human crisis, it would be rather unsavory.

"No, I would like His Royal Highness Maitir to tell me a lot about what I can do. Thank you very much."

But relieved me in the ass, Alfina bowed her head to Mathier.

Mathier's gaze turns to me. I shook my head wide. At least Alfina's in danger, that's my basic policy. I am not going to compromise.

Mathilde stares at Alfina and my face.

"I'm finally done explaining............ What is this air!?

Noel opened the door coming up from below. And when I saw the two princesses facing each other in front of me, it solidified.

"I'll think about it."

"Thank you"

In front of Noel about what to do, they cut out the conversation.

"Well then, you're all set. Look, why don't you start?"

Fulsey said.

"Yeah, well, it won't start until you hear Ricardo's policy. The Empire is offering tons of demonic crystals, so we need you to live up to that expectation. I wonder what that one will be used for..."

Mathier said sarcastically. On this return, the Empire has also provided valuable deep red Demon Crystals. Originally used in national defense. It's all a serious responsibility over there and here.

"Right. Negative demon crystals."

"Um, I'm already full of stuff next door..."

Fulsey's eyes lit up. Noel is on the run. I just want them both to feel responsible for their status. I forgot the title of director earlier. What am I supposed to say?

"The next catastrophe, it's ridiculous to say that already, but I want to discuss that plan to deal with it. I think we already know who's here, but it's a pretty serious situation."

Ultimately, I have the power to make decisions about crystals. But above all, we have to work out a solid plan to avoid that happening.

By the way, that treatment that Fulsey and Mayteel expect still has a lot of uncertainty. I saw a tightly sealed envelope in the corner of the room. Contains a black crystal [Negative Demon Crystal] brought back from Maldoras.

Let's start with a strategic-level explanation. I stood in front of the tablet.

"There are a number of projects that need to be done in the lab to combat this catastrophe."

"Hmm. I can only leave it to His Royal Highness Prince Wang and others about the nature of the devil worm and the dogs, but it's tough to work out a plan without understanding it."

Fulsey roared.

"Well, it's inefficient not to understand the requirements required. It's tough in time."

Mayteel sees Alfina.

"From the sight I saw on the crystal, the disaster is spring, late but early summer"

"I don't know how long it will take to develop a new magic guide, and I'm not sure it will work. Then, a further improvement in spirulitis is realistic...... I wonder what's going on with Noel. Well, as far as you showed me earlier, it went a long way, didn't it?

Mathier pointed the water at Noel. Noel should have been advancing me with magic semiconductor technology, or hard side, using demon-guided silver. Bottom up all the magic guidance. Its power was shown with an improved magic wand, but the potential of the magic semiconductor is still great.

"... so far so far"

Noel put out a single silver plate. Red and blue paint is flowing into the ditch. Maityle can take it and put magic into it. The entire plate instantly lit up.

"... that's pretty much better. You didn't tell me it was this precision before I left here."

"Vinder's idea of flushing a magic catalyst with a mosaikangen show into a demon-guided silver groove has raised yields considerably. It's just that there are dozens and dozens of them that can be activated completely."

Noel said. A champion product without champion data? Still, that's a lot of progress.

"Noh's specialty is to improve that radar and generate purple magic. We've come a long way in understanding the nature of the magic catalyst for each wavelength."

Fulsey said. I know the boulder well. The device that generates purple magic is based on the radar used in that carriage race, especially the active mode.

Again, the members here are really good. In a situation far from optimistic, it is the only salvation. Alfina sees everyone as impressed as well. I hope she convinces me she doesn't have to do it either......

The problem is that I'm just an ordinary person who's been bottomed up with previous life knowledge to bring this member together...

Anyway, we need to figure out how to combine these excellent technologies.

"Understanding the nature of demonic worms, generating purple magic wavelengths, improving demonic silver circuits and developing demonic wands that can counteract demonic worms. This is what it looks like, roughly."

Organize again. The whole magic squad that I was so proud of just now turned into a troubled face. Blah, blah, blah. It's a very big project. That is why it becomes important to determine strategies and set priorities.

"I think what's the top priority in this"

I asked the question first.

"I feel all indispensable... Ultimately, we don't need the strength to fight."

"Well, if you can't defeat the demon worm, it doesn't make sense."

Fulsey and Mayteel said. Ultimately, we need strength. That's right. Extreme stories, if you can exterminate a demon bug with one spell, you don't need a strategy.

"But as you two were saying earlier, there's not much information on that demon bug. Then..."

Noel said with a dark face. In this sense, it can also be said that the bottom up of the Magic Conducting Circuit, which can handle whatever happens, is the easiest. But...

"The biggest point is to attract demon worms to an unmanned realm. In other words, the purple magic generator will be our top priority."

I concluded.

"I know what you're going to say. There is no way to deal with it if it strikes all parts of the kingdom in one piece, as prophesied. But if you can do it, if you can't win, it'll be the same."

"In that sense, it's even dangerous to let the Devil Bug make the most of it."

The two of us have the best doubts. But there is a fundamental difference in thinking.

"Got it. Vinder knows how to win."

Noel said. Alfina breathed.

"That's not true."

I shook my head. For some reason, Alfina makes a relieved face. Do you think all my actions are reckless?

"So what are we going to do? It will be tight in time to wait for information from His Royal Highness the King, who remains in the Empire, on the adult worm of the Devil."

"Yeah, that would mean the worst is at the same time as disaster."

Just before we returned to the kingdom, there were reports of purple magic near the eastern edge of the empire. I expect it, but I can't say for sure. Of course, there's no way to be sure under the circumstances.

"What do you do without information? You won't be able to make a good hypothesis."

Mathier looks at me intrigued.

"Oh, it's hard to prepare the best tactics from the start, including the Magic Guide"

What I'm trying to say is the opposite. Create a "system” where you can eventually win without complete information.

"So I don't assume that. This time we create a situation in which we compete with the greatest power of man, with learning efficiency"

I proclaimed. If the opponent Matsushi is a number, we will compete at the rate of rotation.
