The Magus of Genesis

Lesson 2 Opportunity/One Opportunity

"Cheers!"

Kin, and make a high metal noise, and we each pound the cup.

"Lynn is old enough to drink alcohol deliciously."

"Seisei, how many years ago are we talking about? I'm not a kid anymore."

"What are you talking about? I'm not even a hundred years old."

To Lynn, who mouths her liquor like a little lick while holding a cup with both hands, Nina.

Is she, uh, seven hundred and forty-three this year?

Because by the standards of elves, he still seems like a young man, so I guess Lynn just looks like a kid.

"How was your trip?

"It was fun! I knew there were a lot of people on land."

Saying, Seeker and Lynn explore the bag. This is the leather bag I gave you as a sorter when you were traveling.

It was built extra sturdy to keep her out of the way when she used it and not break easily, but you still used it.

"This is the stone I got from a really big guy - this is the flower I got from a little guy, the bone I got from a guy like a fat Luca -... this is the stone... who did you get this from? Well. I didn't get it for anything, but it was also for black people and people with wings."

Lynn tells an amazingly big mess of memories as she arranges the memorabilia on her desk.

"What, you've even met giants and shadow people?

She sharpens her eyes a little and Nina stares at Lynn.

Both are belligerent and tend to look down on the weak.

It's not hostile, but it's a very friendly species.

"Hmm......? I don't know. He said Nantka, but I forgot. Oh, and I went to visit Sig and Luca a a few times. And in the purple place."

Lynn tilting her neck doesn't look drunk yet. Maybe he's just forgetting it with vegetables.

This girl has forgotten something for a long time.

I hope it's not too dangerous.

"But I wonder if anywhere felt as solid as this village"

"I guess."

To Lynn's words, Nina snorts proudly for some reason. Well, I don't know why.

Nothing has lived in this village longer than she has, and nothing has worked as hard as she has. It is only natural to be praised and proud.

I somehow get behind me as if I was cheating on my previous life's knowledge.

"Well, that might get harder in the future."

"Because the array I was making today failed?

I nod to Nina, who turns a blind eye.

The water wheel is probably the oldest prime mover in the world.

And modern Japan's...... No, it is no exaggeration to say that industry on Earth was largely supported by prime movers.

Generating electricity uses all the prime movers, starting with thermal hydronuclear power, and even steam engines before that are in short only a type of prime mover.

A machine that automatically turns some energy into another.

It was because of that that humanity was able to save enormous effort, automate, mechanize and support countless populations.

There is magic in this world, but in the end it saves a lot of time that people have to use it one by one.

"I don't know, are you in that much trouble if I don't move?

"It's not like that, it's the very fact that one way or the other it doesn't work."

To my words, Nina and Lynn all put a question mark on their expressions.

Well, it will be difficult to understand. In one way or another, it is more likely that my idea of something that goes around if you hit the water wheel is heretical and wrong in itself.

But when that happens, it is difficult to develop the village any further with my knowledge and ideas.

Nevertheless, I had anticipated that it would be about to happen anyway.

Because I'm not an engineer, I'm not a historian.

Famous and simple technology is limited.

Metal vessels were also made, and is the civilization level of this village about ancient through the Stone Age now? There are still many underdeveloped parts when it comes to the Middle Ages.

Although I have managed to make up for it by magic so far, I had a faint feeling that the times I could manage with my own ideas were about to come to an end.

If it's about water wheels and gears, we'll see. Looks like we can handle it, but I have no idea what a more complicated machine is. Even engines have seen rough conceptual diagrams when they were kids, but they don't know anything about specific mechanisms.

To the computer, I had no idea how it even worked, even though it was the most routine thing I touched. I know that something called semiconductor is used, but what is a semiconductor in the first place? I don't even know if it's metal or an artifact like plastic.

So maybe this is one opportunity, I thought.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time."

"Now you've thought about not being any place?

When I leaked pompous, Nina said so to tease me.

"Yeah. I was thinking about building a new school"

"I see."

I guess I had some anticipation. Nina nodded deeply.

"When you look like that, it's more or less my job."

"You're going to have a hard time."

Nina looks on her face as much as she wants.

That's how she hangs out with me while I say it, so she's a really good partner.

"Previously, what about our school?

"Of course I'll leave you there."

I give Lynn a slightly anxious look, and I snort.

"The school so far... right, shall we call it elementary school for the sake of distinction? It's where the kids learn the basics and acquire the minimum knowledge. In other words, it would be a school to teach us what we already know. I add to that something more advanced… a school that no one knows yet. I want to build a university."

"Nobody, what they don't know..."

With a slightly red-stained cheek with liquor in it, Lynn rebuts my words.

With stable farming and livestock, the food reserves in the village of Hiiro increased considerably. Anyway, we have to build a water wheel. It's time for grain removal and powder production.

If so, what makes it a job to just research without being involved in the production of food and essentials… means that the knowledge class can live.

I was hunting myself hundreds of years ago. The basement of accepting the existence that said so would be able to do so among the people of the village of Hiiro.

"In short, you're going to do what these kids did when they were here."

Pong, tapping Lynn's head, Nina puts her lips on the cup as she says.

"If you ask me, I might."

I took international students to develop people who could become teachers, but I think they were trying new things, not just that at the time. Because there was a goal to build farming and livestock.

It's completely different for me to recreate the technology I know and try the unknown, but it's no different for the Ninas to know neither.

"Seisei, I want to do that! Sounds fun!"

Is that why Lynn glowed her eyes and immediately said so.

To me, of course, that's a wish or a fulfillment.

Because her ingenuity with flexible and unique thinking is more suited to researchers than ever, except that she's bored.

"Thank you. I want you to cooperate.... there's just something we need to build first before we can build a school"

"Oh. If we're going to split it completely, we need another school building. Besides, teachers have to look at it."

Drinking down the coke and booze, Nina lists what she needs to fingerfold. It seems like a big mess and she's surprisingly dizzy about the clerical things she said that way.

"That's what they are too -"

But what I'm saying now is something else.

"I have to make paper."
