The Economics of Prophecy

"Yeah, this is the ancient dragon's eye of prophecy. I've never seen anything this big. Plus, the magic flow path is incredibly delicate..."

Going between crystals, Mayteel sees crystals rarely. I need you to think about your position for a second.

Luiza doesn't change her expression, but I can see Claudia is nervous. Of all the disasters we've had, two and a half times have been imperial. Although curiosity would take precedence over saying that I don't care about the person at the time.

"I wonder if we can get started soon."

"Yes, because the signal is almost always coming"

Alfina answered. And I saw Elise I'd be ready for.

"Ricardo can help you experiment, too."

Looks really happy. The smile is disturbing to me.

"Just test it for a short period of time and it will be over soon. So, I can't..."

I lifted an empty demon crystal.

"Is just one good thing?

"Yes, because it's still an important enough experiment"

I've only brought one deep red demon crystal for filling tests from the beginning. I'm not going to replace Alfina with a charger. Only test the possibility of a deep red demon crystal filling to come.

And it's true that it's an extremely important experiment. I will explain to Alfina what it means to be able to fill ”massive” deep red demon crystals in the battle to come. Alfina listens with a firm nod.

Prepare Ealis. Turning to the crystal, instead of sensory demon paper, install a deep red demon crystal that emits magic with negative demon crystals.

"Please"

When I said it, Alfina headed for the crystal. Mathier shook her body so badly. The next moment, a vortex of magic rose from the crystal. Not stronger than before because of your mind......

I need to think about getting it over with a little bit sooner. I rush to the prism to open the lid of the optical path and hit the purple wavelength on the deep red demon crystal. Invert the hourglass.

Mayteer is also starting her own experiment. It seems to be an experiment to shed purple magic on the sample's magic circuit. Deep red is faster to calculate than red magic. Purple is a further test of expectations.

Every grain of sand falls is crappy. At the end of the time I had decided, I immediately closed the lid of the optical path. Normal demonic crystals have had enough time to understand that they are recovering. Mathier nodded at me, too.

"The experiment is over. Stop it. It's okay."

Alfina honestly leaves the crystal. There is slight sweat seeping through my forehead, but at least there is no change in my expression or footprint. I'm rather inclined to my neck to see if it's better already.

No, well, I'm worried about being called overprotective.

"That's an amazing output. It was more than I could have imagined. It works well enough. It's just a question of whether the circuit has more..."

Mathier is impressed with it.

"More than that. Test this one, please."

I said in a slightly lower voice. Alfina seems fine, but it's bad for my heart.

"I know. So let's see how the deep red heals."

Mathier came before Ehlis. I give the crystal to Mayteel. Maityle closed her eyes when she put it in her hand. One second, two seconds and time elapse.... Normally, you'd know the light would leak to me too...

"That's crazy."

Mathier opened her eyes. Seriously, look at the beads in your palm. Speaking of which, I was a little concerned, I felt like the light of magic was passing through the demonic crystals. I didn't care because it wasn't the magic itself that I saw, it was the light that was indirectly caused.

"You mean purple magic can't fill deep red demon crystals"

I asked. Mathier shook her head vertically. It's a mismatched outfit. Demonic crystal filling is so efficient that the wavelength of magic is pure. The purple magic from the crystal is ideal for that. To say no to that......

"Couldn't I help you?"

"No, that's not true"

I said in a hurry.

"Yeah, it's big to find out it doesn't work out well in advance, although it's not a delightful result"

Mathier said. Exactly, if you're strategizing on the assumption that you can recycle deep red demon crystals, and you can't do it just before, it'll be catastrophic.

"But that's a little strange. I wonder if there are any conditions different from normal demonic crystals."

Mathier rolled a deep red demon crystal at his fingertips.

It's possible, if the focus of magic crystals is "excitement," as I imagine, you have to put just the right energy on it. It could not simply be a question of if it were a high wavelength of energy. As a premise, unlike electrons, I thought the energy level of magic was simpler......

"No, wait. Energy level? Same as the excitation of electrons.................. Ah!

Maybe I was making a fundamental mistake. Magic power is light, and the magic conductor circuit was understood by a metaphor called an electronic circuit, but it's weird to think about it. The magic conductor circuit must be understood as an optical circuit. That's fine.

But then...

"You came up with something, Ricardo."

"Oh. No, there's no certainty. I just came up with one problem. What has been emptied in the Demonic Crystal?"

"Isn't magic..."

"Yeah, there was another possibility. Suppose it wasn't magic that flowed from demonic crystals to negative demonic crystals..."

Alfina and Mathier will look suspicious in my words. That would be, because magic is actually flowing.

"I want to try this first"

Evidence over theory. I put a negative demon crystal in contact with a crumb demon crystal. The light comes out and fits. Here this demonic crystal has been emptied. And if it's my prediction...

I took a deep red demon crystal with proper magic left in my hand.

"Now fill me with empty Crumb Demon Crystals"

When I say that, I install the Crumb Demon Crystal on Ealis.

"... but even though the prospect of replenishment is off, you use deep red for the Enchantment of Crumb Demon Crystals."

With a face that Maityle seems uncomfortable with, she draws her magic from a deep red demonic crystal. A deep red wavelength purified by a dragon crystal hits a crumb demon crystal that has lost its magic power. After a while, I removed the Crumb Demon Crystal and gave it to Maityle.

"... that"

Mathier turned into a surprised face when he pinched the demonic crystal.

"I knew it. Magic is not filled. Right."

".................. yeah"

Mathier turned into a confused face.

"I was completely wrong to interpret the phenomenon caused by negative demonic crystals. It wasn't magic that was flowing. It's trapped in demonic crystals, particles that cause magic."

Magic is a form of power. In previous life, there are four types: gravity, electromagnetic force, strong nuclear power, and weak nuclear power. And in addition to that, it's magic in this world.

And all four forces of previous life have common structures. It is the presence of particles that ”cause” the force and particles of the force that caused it (force carriers).

For example, in the case of an electromagnetic force or an electrical force, a particle of force (force carrier) in which light mediates a force. It is also likely that the magic pulled from the demonic crystals is carried by some kind of particle of force that does not exist in the universe of previous life.

And if magic corresponds to photons, it is in the demonic crystal because of the "universal nature of power" ….

"In short, do you mean that demonic crystals are no different from Edison's bulbs... Then negative demon crystals are more than negative..."

In my head, the concepts of my previous life are coming out and I'm going to sort everything out.

"Ricardo?

"Maybe it's okay. Noel also said," When Ricardo says something funny like this, something amazing must come up. "

"Really? I don't know..."

"I guess so. How much Ricardo and I are together in this field..."

Finally connected to the concepts I learned in my previous life. I've been thinking about magic as the fifth force in physics and before, and this zama while I think it's exhilarating to refill magic. A physics student would have noticed in an instant.

I looked at Alfina and Mathilde, frightened of myself. For some reason, Alfina is confronted by a little fuzzy with the bragging Maitille.

What happened? What happened?

Well, I'll explain when I get back to the lab. Because words can't explain my vague understanding.
