The Economics of Prophecy

I'm about to climb through a winter's ravine outside. Around the time of the change of age in previous life? It hardly snows in Wang Du, but still, the cold is getting harsher. It's supposed to be a season of waiting for spring.

Of course, as far as I'm concerned, I want winter to last forever. And a magical ice age. Six months left until the disaster...... no, if I suck, I might only have four months.

Too much to do with the rest of the time, and it's all loaded with indeterminate elements. The only salvation is that the project you put at the top of your priorities is going on.

I saw an obscure device placed in the center of the curator's office.

A large bowl with improved antenna is below and a small bowl on top. An instrument capable of adjusting the vertical and horizontal positions is fitted between them. Inside the apparatus are distanced deep red demonic crystals and negative demonic crystals processed into flat plates.

"Shall we begin?"

As Fulsey rotates the screws attached to the instrument in the middle, the two demonic crystals gradually approach. When the two came into contact, purple magic occurred. The magic generated reflects up and down the curved surface and rises towards the ceiling.

It's like a previous life insecticidal lamp that attracts bugs with ultraviolet light. I just don't have the means to kill it, even if I can attract it. Somehow they use electric shocks.

We can only hope for future learning as per the strategy. Of course, Noel is still working with Mayteel to streamline the magic circuit, both in hard and soft terms. Spirulitis is going to be even more powerful. I hope that's enough......

No, let's focus on this now. If this is completed, we can prevent the worst from being simultaneously attacked by demonic worms everywhere in both countries. You should learn how to exterminate it there.

"You took shape faster than I thought."

I held up my hurry and said the facts.

"It's because of the antenna application that originally happened. If you can use purple magic steadily, it's a range of adjustments. Well, that's prototype number one."

Fulsey went as she handled her beard. That looks like a favorite who enjoys his old age hobbies. It will be true that I enjoyed it, but I know that the lights in this room were lit as late as every day.

If it was just purple magic, it wasn't magic caused by negative demonic crystals, but it went well since I realized it was magic vegetation. The charge ”demon” particle, the charging particle "Denshi", was decisive as to whether or not the magic vegetable flowed honestly between the two crystals.

Amateur imagination, but when magic was flowing from demonic crystals to negative demonic crystals, the flow would have been disrupted by clashes between demons and so on, resulting in the occurrence of irregular magic. It's like killing a lot of people on the ground toward a narrow entrance.

By widening the surface area and sticking it together perfectly, the magic vegetable moves smoothly. As a result, the wavelength of the emitted magic becomes constant. With the extraordinary cleansing of the magic that occurs, we have also figured out that there is likely to be a difference in purity between negative demonic crystals as well.

However, once the principle has been confirmed, application problems arise.

"Has it disappeared?"

Fulsey came. The light from the generator is quickly disappearing.

"This is a tough one for the purpose they assume."

"It won't be long enough, but it won't have enough output."

In any case, this device must compete with the magic vent in the demonic vein to attract demonic worms. There is an advantage of distance, but competition with natural phenomena, so to speak.

"It's also difficult to control. I can do this for once..."

Fulsey clears a slight gap between the two demonic crystals. And put your own finger on the new deep red demon crystal. When Fulsey is empowered, the magic vegetable flows through a small distance.

"Oh."

I see, can magicians control it by exerting pressure on magic vegetables?

"But once it spills out, it won't stop."

Even as Fulsey let go of her fingers, the light never stopped.

"Can't you consciously move the magic vegetable in the opposite direction and stop the flow?"

"Don't be lame, it's a really subtle adjustment. In the first place, we've finally understood the very principle of magic and magic in demonic crystals, as explained by others in the meantime. When they say that, it fits perfectly like nothing else."

I went so that Fulsey could give up.... the same bean bulbs glow in my last life, at least in high school knowledge. Well, the great discovery of the century at the time of its discovery even in previous life?

"The spread of magic is far from what they want."

Indeed, as far as the earlier one is concerned, the pillars of light stand up too straight.

"Adjusting the shape of the antenna below would change somewhat... because it's difficult"

Originally, magic is more direct than light. On top of that, it transmits the basic substance. It's hard to say that it will inevitably reflect. If the angle is slightly different, it transmits the antenna, or it is absorbed by the magnetic conductor, which is the material of the antenna. It was Fulsey's decades of experience that brought him here in a short period of time.

I hadn't noticed because I had left radar related to it to date.

"Output, efficiency, and on-off and range control…"

"Which do you prioritize?

Fulsey asks me. If technology is top notch, it's up to the seeker to take advantage of it. But what do we do? Mostly this kind of thing is in a trade-off relationship. If you prioritize the output, it's like the cospa drops.

No, that's if you think of it as a pure physical phenomenon. There must be an "opponent” this time. Think of the ecology of the customer………….

"It must be a magic spread."

"Why not?"

"It's the same thing that magic from the magic vent is highly direct, right? But the demon worm senses it from afar and gathers."

"I see, it doesn't mean I sense it even very thinly. If you can radiate even a certain amount of output, it will attract a lot of energy."

"That's the thing. I'll spread it as wide as I can in concentric circles. Speaking of greed, it also increases control and occurs on the pulse. Even if the output is small, it can be disguised as an attractive source of magic for the demon worm."

Fraudulent commercial practice, but I don't need a repeater. Bring them in to kill.

"Hmm. All right, we'll consider a magic catalyst to coat the antenna in that direction. Come with me. I've got a few things in mind."

Fulsey gets up. Damn, as an administrator, it's just a deal not to be the person below, but if you stick it to your specialty, you can really rely on it.

… has a high degree of professionalism of his own and allows his men to wave their arms freely. That, as the director of the lab, could it be the strongest?

◇ ◇

It's next to the new building's biology lab that keeps the magic catalyst. I follow Fulsey down the hall. The sorcery dorm leaves the road in a hurry, hands on the chest and head down. It only looks like civilians, and it's actually the same against me without the fraudulent element of civilians.

It's because Noel freaked me out. Sometimes it would be Fulsey to be next door. The Great Sage seems uncomfortable too......

When I walked into the room, I saw Dalgan and Lilka talking to Alfina. In the back some Mayteers are testing magic catalysts.

"Ricardo.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Alfina said sadly in the outfit she took a step here.

"No, I'm fine now"

Feeling the stare of D'Argan and Lilka, I said in a panic.

"Really? Now, a little about magic catalyst culture......"

Alfina comes here with many notes in her hand. When Fulsey tells me she left it to me, I head back.

"Mr. Dalgan is helping me adjust the culture fluid, and Mr. Pulra is helping me with the idea of keeping the temperature of the culture constant..."

Alfina gives me a report on the magic catalyst relationship. I think it comes together well. The person who listens can understand it in a short time, and he knows the mechanism of purchasing itself and the situation of each chamber of commerce.

"I've been listening to you on the side for a while now, but you're familiar with the princess's money."

It went like Mathier was impressed. Weren't you that princess, too? I know the Empire is under different circumstances.

"Because I am a shareholder of the Vinder Chamber of Commerce"

Alfina bragged a little bit. Even with chest tension, to a normal size mai teal.........................

"Yeah. I'm a little interested in how that stock works. Why don't you tell the ignorant Gentiles?"

Mathier's eyes lit up. Alfina turned into a bit of a troubled face, but explains even that. Mathier is listening with a snort. You don't have my turn.

"Maybe you're familiar with Ricardo and money?

Mathier looked surprised. That's the only word that sounds provocative.

"... a hundred percent pure merchant, though"

"Yes, Ricardo is the best merchant in the kingdom."

No, you're the best magic researcher in the world.

...... I would say they are both different. He's an ordinary man who wore waste in his previous life's knowledge.

"Fair enough. I want to fund it too. Ricardo... sell your rights to the Vinder Chamber of Commerce."

We don't do human trafficking...

"Well, that's... Yes, you don't have a plan to increase capital now, do you?"

Alfina looked at me for help.

"I can't get around to distributing ownership with foreign countries, so I dismiss it."

The stock system today is an illusion that is forced to be established by the authority of the biggest aristocrat, Euphilia. That's still the same now. I'm involved in this conversion of city bonds, and the development of laws around there will go some way, but it's a story of the future.

"Then you can call it a new city bond. If I invest, it will lead to trust in the future of the new city."

Mayteel went. Perhaps the Empire cannot afford to just invest in bonds. Still, the symbolic significance is enormous if the Empress invested even if it was a limited amount. Especially against people who are half-hearted about expanding their dealings with the Empire.

"I have to consider it. But..."

I saw Central Garden, so to speak, the primary dealer in bonds.

"Guess it's not up to us alone."

I also need to talk to Euphilia and talk to the Chancellery. More work needed again......

"With that said, Senior Dulgan. You don't have Senior Plura, do you?"

"............... we're not a set. Vinder took it home and hung it up on Cocowus."

That's right. I threw most of them round by example.

"Regardless of the size, when it comes to growth rates, Prla is the head of Central Gardens. That tells the story of the profits of a new deal with the Empire while serving confectionery you've never eaten. This is gonna work."

That has an impact. I wonder if it would be even more effective if there was a chocolate with a higher percentage of cocoa for men. Cost jumps, but sugar usage decreases for that matter, and even a single sample will work......

"With that said, they're calling me tomorrow, too."

Fulsey, who was selecting a magic catalyst, finished the work. The old building, the official name of which is the main building, calls it with the desire to be peaceful, Maitille stopped when she tried to return to it. Alfina looked at this one worried.

"Oh, of course, me and the curator will be there."

"Wow, I'm in, too"

Alfina said. Craig is finally coming home. From what I've heard, they're all back properly. Except, of course, the Fabius and the others who are still making maps.

I'm really relieved you're home safe. Besides, it seems Craig ran into something that looked like an adult of that demon worm. I'm supposed to hear the most important information tomorrow.
