The elegant daily routine of sage Grecas - here we go with a lovely 'Sage Hall' life!

"So here's the answer that Lord Sage and the Magic Workshop (Marsenal) Union (Guild) of Washi and Shimomachi have in mind. Would you look at that?

"Yes, let me take a look"

The challenge, requested by the King's Government, is to "develop a new generation of mobility means". The answer to this, he said, is there.

Nikolai, head of the union, leads me to the center of the room. The other union members in the room are watching to see my reaction.

Secure means of transport to the world tree. It is the truth that no one has yet found a clear answer to the King's government's demands aimed at securing this.

Think back on how you've been so far.

For example, it's a magic tool I built called "Barrel."

In terms of flying and being movable in the sky, it seemed like the best answer, but there were problems in spreading it as a general public.

-It takes a huge amount of magic to drive.

-Control is complicated and cannot be manipulated without a high-ranking wizard.

It is a one-off magic tool that does not reveal the manufacturing process.

There is a limit to the weight during loading.

In other words, it is ineligible as a "next generation" magic tool.

Likewise, there appeared to be some prototypes in the Magic Workshop (Marsenal) stores.

Previously, during an intermediate presentation in the castle, the footage of the Slide Projection Magic Fixture (Magina Projector) was presented. From what I saw, it was all hard to say that they were all successful.

"Fast-moving bipedal golem," "air-breathing cylinder (but unable to fly)," "auxiliary magic engine to attach to a regular carriage," etc.

There were other tons of demo inventions exhibited by Naru's magic workshop, "autonomous spinning wheels (...), commonly known as' want to roll '.

None of them were able to meet the requirements in terms of durability, manufacturing costs, or performance.

If you consume a lot of magic even if it performs well, it is not suitable for long distance travel, because manufacturing is too costly to be popularized in general.

There was also an element of the new magic, 'adsorption magic', conceived by Lentomia, but it would be more for local means of transport that could be used in the world tree than for direct means of movement.

For example, it is an application for gondolas that can move up and down ropes draped in central pits (center shafts) of world trees, and vehicles that can move up and down quickly through castles, towers, etc.

I've been thinking about something called "Hovercraft," but it was a failure. Because it was full of the drawbacks of not being able to get the speed out and sprinkling dust all around it with wind pressure.

- So, what's the answer?

I was in trouble too, to be honest.

Come on, I want to settle here.

In the middle of the guided union (guild) there was a large desk and some magic tools. None of them are familiar.

The first is a "cylindrical object" shaped like a metal bucket.

The metal bars are pierced up and down like the axis of the comma and the tip has a gear. The cylindrical body was seen growing several parts that looked like mounting fittings. I mean, it looks like a part to attach to something.

The other is a magic tool like "Abumi" that you put on the horse's back. Four sticks made of wood and leather stretch from the body of about a shoulder bag that holds some kind of karaki.

What's more, it's just a "cloth". At first glance, it looks like a front cloth for a carriage, but there are signs of a magical technique.

At the end of the day, it's a "wheel" like I saw it somewhere. I just keep it on my desk, but it's unsettling and shaky. It's like I can't help but want to spin, like I said.

"Isn't this... 'Rolling Tires' at Naru's?

"Ah! Glad. You remembered very well. I've improved a lot since then, and I've evolved into a" pretty rolling tire. "

"Ho? But... what other tools... are there for the next generation of transports?

I almost noticed.

All the magic tools in here are magic tools of the "mount" type.

"Sage, these are upgrade kits for carriages."

"The magic tools you attach to and use on your carriage...... that means combining multiple magic tools to improve the overall performance of your carriage......!?

Surprised and rejoiced at my words in the room of the Magic Workshop (Marsenal) Union (Guild), my voice flickered like waves. The union leader points the magic tool with his hand and gives a confident look.

"Exactly. Then the boulder is Lord Sage......! There was also the idea of various next-generation vehicles, but they all cost a fortune and were airborne theories on the desk. The cost of prototyping is stupid."

"I guess..."

"So Washi and the others have come to the conclusion that it is currently the most used and popular, in improving the 'overall performance' of ordinary carriages. Even if there are few functional improvements due to the magic tools each prototyped, they serve their purpose by complementing and supporting each other. And each one is relatively easy to make."

"I see, have you changed your mind"

This is an idea that we can do because we have firmly cemented our feet and walked.

It doesn't come out to me all the time thinking about creating something new or awesome by myself.

"Besides, we can divert the carriage we have now, so we can keep the cost low. This magical" assist "can be worn on the horse's back to support limb movement and reduce horse fatigue. Especially when you put heavy baggage on it, you can start moving and other assistance to reduce fatigue by half."

Another young workshop manager adds an explanation. I'm sure he's the developer of Assist. The more they say that, the more the four arm-shaped parts appear to come in a position that "pushes" the horse's limbs by securing them to the back of the horse.

"Actually, this was inspired by Sage's 'Wine Barrel Golem'. We wanted to create something similar, but we settled into these shapes."

"Oh yeah! No...... wow. I see, there was no idea of enhancing the horse itself. What's the magic power for the drive?

"The built-in solid-state Magic Accumulation Mechanism (Capacitor) allows you to drive for several days."

The Magic Accumulation Mechanism (Capacitor) is a magic storage device that combines crystal crystals and luminous stone powder. Research using "World Tree Seeds" to improve this performance is steadily underway at the Royal Magic Society.

"Practically enough time."

"Yes."

Then another workshop manager lifts the first cylindrical metal object he sees to explain. He's a good old man with a black beard.

"This is a posterior propulsion device. If you attach it to the rear wheel of the carriage, it will only support movement on slopes and uneven ground."

"You're in line with the concept of reducing the burden on horses, faster, farther away, right?

"Exactly! The driving magic is also known as the Magic Accumulation Mechanism (Capacitor). But with a wizard on board, another dimension of running is not possible! If you can butch your magic with your temper, you can run without a horse!

Father Blackbeard stretches his chest, looking confident.

"You don't have a way to stop!

and when someone in the union flew wild, doh laughed.

"I see, it makes sense. That means...... and of course this wheel?

"Yes! The 'rolling tires' in our workshop don't help alone, but changing the four wheels will lead to roughly 10% more propulsion. It's 10%! 10%!

This makes me laugh again at Naru's desperate appeal.

"All right, all right!

"If it's just the tires, it won't even fly."

At the end of the day, it's called "Magic Cloth." I can somehow imagine this.

"Ora and this prized front cloth reduces air resistance when used! A slack that leads to roughly 5% more propulsion! Then, magical defenses and improved weather resistance! I can halve the heat and cold. Zullah!

An oddly hairy, fuzzy, middle-aged man described me as Nico.

"Again, air resistance..."

To improve the performance of the wheels, reduce the air resistance of the vehicle body. Horse fatigue reduction that drives it, and power assistance. Indeed, each performance improvement may not be very effective on its own. But when I combine all this, it makes a difference.

"Calculation suggests a total of 60% increase in the performance of regular carriages. On a per-horse basis, it should be no problem to increase the distance traveled and the load by 40%."

"... Oh my God!

"Besides, it's a combination of materials and magic technology, so there's no cost."

Garant Rantz smiles as he wrinkles between his brows.

Wrap your tongue around whether this is the organizational strength of the Magic Workshop (Marsenal) Union (Alliance) ….

"Horse shops don't lose their jobs, and carriage workshops are just like they've always been. We're all happy."

I stood up my elf ears perfectly as Naru gargled.

"Isn't that amazing... Is that it?"

I don't think this is going to work. Is there room for me to harness my wisdom?
