Impersonation - To distract the surrounding eye, say to make it look confusing, state.

It's commonly called, camouflage.

While the weapons were being stockpiled, I was thinking again about these disguises.

In other words, hide its presence from its surroundings. For example, we want to ensure that travel to the battlefield is not seen as much as possible.

Even here recently, he has made camouflage coats of water magic metal armor from TPS-4 Undine, transparent cloaks that he also gave to Sakilis, and more.

I want to expand this. It makes it difficult to see ships like Anbar, an air cruiser, and the aircraft carrier Aurora from the ground.

However, if it is completely invisible, it is NG because it can also lead to shooting at each other when collisions and enemy allies are involved.

Ideally, you can hide while you travel to the battlefield, waiting.

I just can't put water magic metal like a camouflage coat on all the surface armor of a ship such as Anbar, so magical or smokescreen shielding means like transparency would be nice.... Yes, like a cloud drifting through the sky, for example.

So I'll try to prototype that while I talk to Liana, a military expert. A device that sprays magic into a mist to form a cloud or something.

I also tried to create a device to cover the hull with the magic of transparency, but could not improve the drawback of not being able to deploy simultaneously with the magic barrier.

That was us repeating the production and prototyping, but there was a huge incident shaking the kingdom.

The first thing I noticed was a TR-2 dragon-eye reconnaissance aircraft.

Mixed with materials to create a map of the eastern part of the kingdom, photographs were reported of burned settlements and relatively new battlefield trails.

And with multiple leg anomalies?

In the conference room at Willidis Basement Mansion, I showed them to Mr. Bell, Mr. Daska, Yuna, and Liana.

"... tank, this?

"You don't look like a creature."

The photograph of the reconnaissance aircraft shows an eight-legged anomaly. It also looks like a spider, but also like an octopus walking on the ground. If that had a metallic look, it would have been like an alien weapon from a SF thing a long time ago.

"Multi-legged combat vehicles…"

If Liana shrugged, Mr. Bell had frigid eyes.

"You mean this dude who may not be good at this is making a scene in this country?"

"What is it..."

Yuna saw Mr. Daska, and me.... I don't know either. Mr. Bell opened his mouth.

"So, where are we?

"The End of Old Casling Territory"

Originally the home of Sakilis. With the meteorite disturbance of the example, the real Casling territory has vanished and is now the territory of neighboring aristocracy. The so-called fire place thief.

Well, it's not like I found out about noble Sama who uses human misfortune to expand her territory.

"Is it really a problem to leave it alone?"

There is no guarantee that this machines will not move.

"Including this area, we're going to need more research."

You should also report it to King Eman. It is a case to be kept in the ear of His Majesty the King.

... and I thought things were already moving.

The news of the fire was flying under King Eman.

I was rarely summoned to the royal castle.

It was King Eman who called. I didn't know we were calling the castle to talk on Willidis...

Just diving through the portal, so soon, Minister Spear picked me up and let me go straight to the adjacent armory in the throne room.

"It's Jin. I got into trouble."

I guess. I thought as I saw the serious look on King Eman's face, but that keeps me quiet.

"What happened?

"In the Eastern region, an unidentified bucket and army have emerged, launching an attack on our country"

I understood instantly. That's the one the dragon eye shot......

"Reports from the Marquis of Creniere and their reinforcements."

... That's the name I heard somewhere. Krenière... well, who was it? I heard it at the Actis School of Magic Knights - Oh, Mr. Eckleen!

As I recall, King Eman kept talking.

"They say there is an influx of refugees from the adjacent Trame territory, the Flesser territory, into the Creniere territory. In fact, he's in a state of engagement with the bucket."

Minister Speir also opened his mouth, if the king spoke heavily.

"That the enemy possesses a weapon to fear. It's like a magic wand, but it seems powerful. that the warriors will be almost overthrown by the time they approach to use it continuously"

You mean you have advanced flying tools? Increasingly troublesome.

I took the reconnaissance photo I was supposed to show King Eman later and spread it to a nearby table. The king and minister lose sight of it too.

"Jin, what's this?

"It was taken by a reconnaissance aircraft that flew to the east to create a map of the kingdom."

This one - and I showed you an example eight-legged bucket. Both King Eman and Minister Speer consolidated.

"What, is this...?

"It's probably one of the enemies that is rampant in the Eastern region. Details are unknown."

"Ugh...... Spear, call the messenger. Let me check."

"Ha, sire"

Minister Spear left the room behind on a small run. I look at other pictures in the meantime and say what I wondered about some abandoned settlements and the residents there.

Slightly, the minister brought a messenger from Creniere territory.

Before the king and the messenger - the magician-style young man fell to his knees.

"Face up. I want your opinion, come here."

"Ha, sire!

The sorcerer stretches his spine and comes, but sees a picture on his desk and changes his complexion.

"Ko, is this......!?

You'd have seen the picture for the first time. His expression was stunningly distorted. But King Eman asked without a problem.

"Is the alien here the enemy that's attacking you?

"Ha, probably"

The sorcerer brings his face closer to the photograph with a shiver.

"I don't see this spider-like enemy in person, but I do see a very similar bucket of four-legged and six-legged stuff!... but what the hell is this painting... It's like it's real."

"The art of the man you hoped for."

That's what King Eman said, pointing to me.

"O messenger of Creniere. It's Jin Tokitumo who's here."

"You...!

The magician put his own hand on his chest as he turned to me.

"It was a pleasure to meet you here. My name is Charul, the first magician to serve the Marquis of Creniere. I have a message from Lady Eckleen."

Message from Mr. Eckleen. You came to see me - so I was called to the royal castle. Understood.

"I'm Jin Tokitumo. What's the message from Mr. Eckleen...?
