The box in front of me was a relic of the Holy Sword Battleship, Silver (Platinum) in the Ethereal Dome (Fatimart) (...).

With the massive growth of 'Sprinkling Magic (Shrub Garden)' planted to stop the power reactor from exploding, it's definitely a load that came out of the hull to be pushed away.

Hexagonal columnar objects emitting a dull metallic glow are roughly one merte on one side. It's buried half way, so I can only guess the depth, but it doesn't seem that big.

"Indeed, the Holy Sword Battleship had a cargo loading area. It must have been loaded there."

When I boarded the Ethereal Dome Silver (Platinum), I also saw the structure chart of the ship. Because there was a cargo bay under the ship's tail, and my 'Barrel' regiment was loaded there too.

I was desperate and unaware then, but I also feel that one side of the wall was covered with a hexagonal pattern. Maybe this container-like object was loaded with biscuits, like columnar manipulation.

"Sage Grecas, what is" Ark "?

Read again the letters that emerged on the crystal where the fairy Methius had strengthened his pale phosphorescence and was rolling down to the ground. I also decided to float a few phosphorous magic (will-o-whisp) to find out more jealously.

"The Ark is a... evacuation ship to escape the flood. An exotic legend."

There must have been a similar word in the myth of the former (...) world. I don't remember much detail, but it must have been Old Testament language.

"Well? Ships for evacuation...... Were the people of the world who built the Holy Sword Battleship trying to escape to a safe place on a flying ship?

I can't answer that question. In the first place, the Holy Sword Battleship is a battleship that had the ability to even navigate space. It must have been a magical air battleship with little space for civilians.

Yet the fact that you were carrying this on combined with what it meant to be a top secret... escape ship?

"If dozens of sailors get on board to move the ship, there's no room or space for civilians to fly. So this would be a substitute."

"Instead? I mean, this..."

The query of Fairy Metius and the question of Sir Rembrandt, the knight who is listening in silence behind him, will be the same.

"The part called 'Freezing, Bioconcentration Samples… A New World to Come, Wishing for a Resurrection in Kristania' would be a hint to solve the mystery. It can also be read like some inscription, but can only be interpreted as meaning as it is'

"Biosamples...... no way magic...... is that what humans have changed!?

"Maybe. In this crystalline crystalline crystal, the architects sealed their souls and memories and cast the magic of the resurrection, as they had called them" eight treasures. "

Isn't this the "secret" that the Holy Sword Battleship was hiding?

"Is this what you are like to escape from the terrible battle of dragons and go to the new world of 'Kristania'? But... now it's like"

Fairy Metius gets stuck in words there.

"Archi......? Memory and soul? Sage Grecas, what the hell are you talking about?

Sir Rembrandt, who was keeping an eye on things behind him, can't seem to follow me and the fairy story, but all this is something I can't help but do.

I guess this artifact will be the property of the Kingdom of Metanostadt - but already, it's a subtlety whether it's worth it to the Kingdom.

Because...

The lid on the front of the hexagonal column-shaped container was twisted and detached, and the 'crystal columns' stuck inside were scattered. Many of them have shattered and lost their radiance, and are cloudy as if they were ashed.

When I gently removed only one crystal column from the inside, it became brittle and collapsed. It crumbles like white ash.

"Well!? It's crushed!

"This... is a ranking card (yes). My soul is no longer here."

"Morphological Maintenance Magic (Sonomarma)" that keeps objects semi-permanently in shape. The magical effect for such quality preservation is not eternal. As you can see from the crushed crystal, it seemed lost for some reason.

But there were only a few signs of magic, like life-activation (...), to preserve the memory of the soul that made it live or when it was alive.

It was heavier than air and was felt pouring out as an invisible fog-like gas.

- The magic that leaked from here was making the mushrooms huge...?

"In other words, is this the tomb mark of those who died in the old world?

Looks like Sir Rembrandt is finally convinced and looks at the box with a strange look on his face. The interpretation of a tomb marker is not far away even if it does not hit. It's not a mistake.

"For convenience (...), there is no mistake in that interpretation. As you can see from the Holy Sword Battleship, in the magical civilized world that once existed, advanced magic was used. This myriad of crystal columns should have originally been those who sealed people's souls and someday put them to sleep wishing for resurrection (...). … but in the course of a thousand years, its effects already seem to have been lost"

I took out another crystal column and showed it to him. That became pashy and powdered, as if the blocks hardened with flour collapsed.

"... ok. It's just something I don't understand at all. I am going to get out of here, use the crystal sphere, convey to my country the views of Lord Grecas, the wise man, and ask for instructions. Do you mind?

honest knight Rembrandt asks quietly.

"Oh, I don't mind. But can I just stay here a little longer and find out? Everyone else will be free, but I want you to tell them I want them to be killing their time. And could you get Lentomia to come?

"Okay. I would like to ask you to look into it. Lord Lentomia will be with you shortly."

When Sir Rembrandt said so and flipped his cape and thanked him, he returned to his original path with a quick foot, sounding the sound of armor.

"Sage Grecas. What are you looking into yet?

Fairy Metius laughs cously and fingers her golden hair. And he looks at me curiously.

When the fairy sat down on the nearby root cob, it became bright as if there was a lamp there.

"I'm pretty sure these crystals have already finished their part. But I need to know what time it was."

"Is it time?

"Ah. It broke when we moved the Holy Sword Battleship... so you're not sleeping well, are you?

"... so is that."

I fell on one knee and put my face carefully close to the crystal column where Metius first read out the letters.

Gently stretch the magic thread (MagiWire) to avoid touching it with your hands.

Find out if there's anything I can read. I once remembered that you had a similar experience in the hangar of The Holy Sword Battleship.

- Yes, with tactical information tables (tactics) and search magic (google).

When I connected the magic thread, the information poured in. The terms of the Magic Communication (Protocol) seem to have lived the magic of tweaking on the other side.

When I inspired translation magic (Yactus), one letter after another appeared in the Tactics table.

Apparently, the letters are objects in which the "fragments of memory" of the soul residing in the crystal have been regenerated.

"Ark Escape Plan, Time Freeze Preservation Bioconcentration Samples

Quantum Copy (Quantum Copy) - Elia Mesari

Arbitrary Message Record [Play]

~ New world to come, one world of sobriety,

Wishing a Resurrection in Kristania ~ '

"Success, I can read, I can read...!

"Well, boulder sage Grecas, something... difficult, but looks like a lady's diary?

"Ah."

Me and Metius nodded and decided to go ahead and read.

"- My name is Elia Mesari, sixteen years old. Sophomore year in high school at Wangdu Milliolune Hyattgard. … I will now go through the mirror (...) of quantum copy of my soul '

The string began to flow slowly. Some parts are missing everywhere, but I think I know the general meaning.

"I left it just before I did some ritual, it seems like a notebook"

'- Scary. Very scary. Months after the interruption of the supply of magic from the "Red Moon". Every day, the world breaks all the news. The city was beautiful, the sea and the mountains, dark and crumbling. Confusion and riots, to the kingdom (deletion by censorship) □ □. A terribly huge and evil dragon made of magic, and though the Holy Kingdom Army is fighting coalitions with the Wizards of Demons from all over the world... the dragon continues to grow. I can't go out there anymore. This underground Sacred Palace (deleted by censorship) No more in the sky, in the sea, in space... said there was no escape'

Apparently, it conveys the sight of the battle against Superdragon Drasilia, a weapon of annihilation for mankind. Before the terrible end of the world, this girl seems to have been compelled to make a decision.

'- To Mother, Father, Grandpa... Tomohi, I want to be with everyone all the time. All the way to death......! Yet I was the only one chosen... If you become a stone-like crystal... you'll get help. Destroy all the dragons in this world... and live in a new world. No... no! Oh, no!'

The girl's crying and moaning continues.

Apparently, in order to prevent the extinction of mankind, the governments of that world sorted (...) only the younger humans possible - and loaded them on the Holy Sword Battleship.

Only quantum copies of souls and memories, equipped with crystal-crystallized humans for 300,000 people per ship -.

It seems the top-secret 'Ark' plan is to split into a residual fleet of hundreds of (...) Holy Sword battleships and carry roughly 30 million people somewhere.

There were five billion people in that world... only a small part of them were informed -.

"Sage Grecas, I... it's hard... only this kid told me to get on the ark away from my family"

"Sounds like... It must have been the only thing I could do."

"- Finally, I became a quantum mirror complex Elia Mesari.

Now another "me" … looking at the original self, from the inside of the crystal…. Very strange mood. Goodbye, another me. It's sad and painful that I get it. So please...... laugh. Because it is my (...) wish to be with my father and mother, and Tomohi to the end.

- Until the last moment - all the time '

"Grecas the Wise, I, the tear gland..."

Fairy Metius weeps with hollows. I took a breath.

"Quantum... mirror copy..."

I felt familiar with the sight portrayed by the notebook of the girl Elia Mesari.

"self" looking at the other "self".

Once, when I fell into a swinging hole that suddenly opened up in the library, I - split into two human beings. It was like I was in the mirror, separated from the other side of the glass, separated as a different person.

The two of us (...) started living a different time.

The original remains Chihiro Shadow Village, and "I (...)" as its duplicated being, as "Grecas" in this world.

That was very similar to the experience of this girl, Elia Mesari.

"Oh well... is that what this is about"

"Sage Grecas? Looks like we're still working on the notes."

"Ah, ah...!

But I still don't know what's at stake.

I decided to decipher the girl's notes just a little bit more.
