The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

The Amiwool squadron sailed around the eastern colony on a course.

The dark forces are conducting intermittent attacks on the eastern colony and the local garrison is responding to them. We were dispatched from the main island of Floating Apollo to work with reinforcements to stop the dark forces from invading.

But this time, I hear the pressure of the dark forces is strong. Our Amiwool squadron turned to the so-called fire extinguishers, destroying the enemies who broke through the line.

Engage with a group of flying whales twice. Each of the Amiwool squadron's magical planes was capable of handling aerial warfare, so they destroyed each group of whales without being pushed.

Not only the Magic Machine, but also the Dark Elf Soldier's Ridara unit, equipped with a bureaucrat, used cavalry spear type arming and Fergus Sol Spinner Reforms to help defeat whales. Even mass-produced Magus aircraft have proven to be effective in powerful anti-ship equipment. I'm really glad.

I'm accumulating experience in aerial warfare using humanoid weapons.

Even so, the forces of darkness...

There are these guys in this time of year. By the time the magical civilization is destroyed, will they also be destroyed?

In the early days of Arlie and the others, I never heard the words of the dark forces. There are no flying whales, and the legend of vampires has never been heard, but it is similar to that of this era.

When I looked at Deacy and my memory, I saw no change in the original era with my intervention so far. The Verilard kingdom, the Alliance, the Great Empire, the memories of the many adventures, the people we met there were right on the spot and there was no discomfort.

There is no deviation from the rails of history. However, since it is a civilization where magical civilization will perish, I could not judge whether it has little influence on modern times or whether it is true history, including because I interfered.

If it is the latter, is it correct how far it is entangled?... well, in that case, you'll have to be able to do it, and if what you've done is genuine history, you can do it as far as you can.

Now, an Amiwool squadron that defeats dark forces with local troops invading all over the world, but I finally see the earthly world of our time.

First of all, the city where the heavens are stationed. It was a fantasy island like Apollo Floating Island, but with a smooth metallic feel, depending on how it was viewed, there was a city that looked like the near future.

Surrounded by huge exterior walls, it is equipped with a turret for defeating external enemies. Although it is not a Magus machine, it also uses humanoid working machines, and it was only said to be a super ancient civilization.

If this civilization hadn't been destroyed, how long would the original era have developed...?

A city in an environment that is not so different from the floating island of Apolito. But on the other hand, the settlements of the people on the ground...

"It's a different time, isn't it?

"No, it's definitely a colony of grounders."

Next to me, stunned, Captain Megis said.

From the bridge of the flagship, the grounders' settlement is a simple and primitive form of medieval kakuya trees and straw roofs. The clothes like thick clothes were just piled up with fur, and it was shameful.

Compared to the people in heaven, it was just as different as the ancients and the future.

"If Apollo doesn't help us, they're just barbarians who don't have enough productivity to take each other. For the first time, I can lead a decent life under the control of the heavens."

You think this is a decent life? I kept the feeling in my chest.

Its management would be a colonial domination that would exploit anyway. Will this grounder be the ancestor of the humans of the original era?

No, not even the heavens. Given that magic remains modern, and that Arlie and Sachs, for example, have shown the suitability of magical machines, it is highly likely that their ancestors had heavenly men.

Commander?

Captain Megis looked suspicious, so I shook my head if nothing happened.

"What did Apollo bring to the grounders when he said he controlled them?

"Order and the protection of the outsiders, the monsters and the forces of darkness."

The captain answered immediately.

"Instead, they support our civilization as a workforce, in addition to mining magic stones and excavating the heritage of ancient civilization."

From my point of view, Apollo is also an ancient civilization. From that point on, even more ancient times would mean the era of Diamante et al. terra fidelitaria and mechanical civilization.

"The so-called 'machine'?"

"Yes, our Apollo technology and weapons are based on an analysis of the legacy of the ancient civilizations they excavated."

An array of flying warships and manned drones. Speaking of magical power, television and other automated machines are probably the same. On the other hand, weapons such as plasma cannons could not be reproduced...

"Speaking of which, do people on the ground farm?

"Is it agriculture?

For a moment, Captain Megis looked strange, but he soon understood.

"Yes, we make food ourselves. It is also served in Apolito, but the crops made on the ground will not be eaten by the great ones, regardless of the average person."

The captain replied that such senior citizens are consuming crops made on the floating island of Apollo.

"Why do great people not eat food produced on the ground?

"Ah, don't you doubt the quality of what the people who look down on the barbarians made?

"... hmm, that sounds like the best."

In short, the ingredients you've made are going to break your bellies, so can you eat them? That would mean that.

It's a bad way to say it, but even in the original era, some ingredients are not as easy to eat as they are today, so you can tell by saying that you know.

Willidis's magic-generated ingredients were safe in that respect, but other ingredients were relentlessly embroiled in the dishes, so proper cooking was necessary.

There is also a reason why raw food is not popular. Nobody wants to die of food poisoning.

... I see, I was treated that great gentleman, too.

The ingredients I used to eat in my life on Apollo Floating Island were almost magical ingredients. This is definitely because I checked with Deacy, the dungeon core. If she could take the magic, she would have eaten it.

... but when that happens, a lot of questions come to mind.

"Captain, have you heard about the power of magic dropping among Apollo's heavenly people yesterday?

"This is a problem even in the military. Compared to ten years ago, the average magic threshold for enlisted recruits is lower."

Oh, young man with insufficient health! I see. This civilization lacks magic.

"When I was young, there were a few more heavenly soldiers.... now we have more Dark Elves."

"I wonder if that magic decline has anything to do with food?

"Food?

Captain Megis rounded his eyes.

"What if the ability to consume crops on the ground is compromised? Sure, grounders are scarce of magic, but it's also affected by food...?

"I'm pretty lame right now."

Besides, I didn't say anything about food on the ground.

Not knowing that, Captain Megis went on.

"But isn't it inconceivable? The crops made by people on the ground are eaten by ordinary people, and it is also possible that they are gradually affecting them over a long period of time."

"I'm not sure."

Yes, I'll stick the nail. Rather, I am too accustomed to magic-generated foods, so I can capture magic quickly, so what theory is that if I use magic, I will go out extra? If you eat too much nutrients, it will drain out without absorption.

In addition, Heavenly Man has lost the ability to control magic because he is surrounded by convenient tools and has less chance to use magic.

But the average person said they were eating crops on the ground. Apparently, there's not just one cause.
