Virtuous Old Man, SSS-Rank is Confirmed in Your Next Life

02. Good people, start technological innovation

I was thinking in my study.

"Um, Father of Nations. Something bothering you?

"Yeah?"

When I looked up, from the desk in the corner, Mari the Yupen looked at me worried.

I'm done with the writing I asked for, and it's carefully put in an envelope and sealed.

"It's not a problem, it's a thought."

"Think about it?"

"Is Mari listening? I'm offering you money to do a life stock study."

"Yes! My maids have told me"

I grinned.

Some aristocratic houses forbid rumors, but I have not.

Because I haven't done anything widespread and troublesome.

"That turned out to be a good tip. I have a lot of knowledge and skills. [M] Think we should move on with them."

"Ha..."

Mari responds raw and says she doesn't know very well.

Was the letter a difficult story for a specialist girlfriend?

Thanks to the sword of the wise, I have acquired every knowledge of the world.

That reality is a super huge dictionary, but as long as I have the sword of a wise man, I can tell you that knowledge is in my hands.

The knowledge of the Sage's sword is, in a nutshell, "what exists today, what existed in the past".

What is in the future, is not in the sword of the wise.

state-of-the-art knowledge and technology, but that is, so to speak, "dead" knowledge.

In one case in the cloud, I started thinking about extending that knowledge first.

"... yeah, let's do it anyway"

And I made up my mind.

First the triggered cloud also said, do you want to do it from "magic"?

A house built to hide in the woods.

When I heard the rumors, I came here alone to visit.

Get close to the house and knock on the door.

"I'm sorry"

Scene.

There was no reply.

"I'm sorry"

Knock again, call, but I knew it would quiet down with the scene and no reply.

Explore the signs just in case... I'm here.

There is one man inside.

It's not moving, but breathing is regular.

Sleeping, is it?

When I was worried about whether to wake him up, I felt the signs swayed, so I decided to call him again.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Howe Robinson. Are you there?

"... I don't know what to say"

A frustrated voice returned from inside the house.

A moment later, the door opened and one man showed himself.

I'm in my 30s and I might see a little bit more up there with my bossy head and my mustache.

Do you wake up or do you usually look like this? I look unmotivated.

"What are you. This isn't where kids come in."

"Mr. Howe Robinson, right? My name is Alexander Carlisle."

"I don't care if it's Alexander or Black Thunder, kid go home"

Howe said irritably.

You don't seem to know me at all.

That's fine, it doesn't matter.

Because what I'm asking now has nothing to do with knowing me.

"Mr. Howe asked me for a favor today."

"There's no eating."

"No. I've heard that Mr. Howe is studying the continuous use of magic tools."

"... kid, what the hell are you?

Howe's face changed.

Obviously, I got a look on my face that I was on guard.

"Alexander Carlisle. He's noble."

"Why would that nobleman ask that?"

"I want you to recommend the research."

……

Howe was often silent and stared at me as if I were worthy.

Howe put me through and let me in the house.

Through the front door, the living room that came in was bright.

Something hangs on the ceiling, and it's releasing a light.

"That's what Mr. Howe is working on."

"Oh, yeah, prototype one."

"Instead of a once-in-a-lifetime Magic Instrument, you can use it over and over again when it is constantly present and replenishes your Magic. You're doing research so you can use it in your everyday life."

"You've done a good job, kid. But the information is slow. I've stopped doing that already."

"Are you quitting? Why?"

He kept telling me to build weapons.

Howe laughed coldly.

"Instead of disposing of the Magic Instrument, it was easy to keep it working as long as it was a vessel and magic. Like this. You want me to call you Magic Lantern? If you keep replenishing this guy with magic, he'll shine all the time."

"Yeah."

"I don't make it, but I'm also thinking of a device to loosen up the ice magic and cool down the room. Summer's comfy, huh?

"Looks like you could make an automatic ice machine."

"Heh, the idea is just noble. Yes, if you can do that, you can go in like an idiot with cheap ice."

"Why did you stop doing research?

I told you to build a weapon.

Howe laughed more and more coldly.

"Things are easy to make, the problem is magic. Where do you bring the magic from? A human or a monster."

"... right"

That's what happens with current technology.

"Mages with magic, keep your mouth shut and say, 'Build me more weapons than that'. That would make it easier for the wizards to make the same things they do."

Howe's words were exaggerated.

You can't even sit on your stomach.

"I mean. Because I've stopped doing research and stuff."

"What if"

"Ahem?

"If you can solve the magic supply, will you resume your research?

"You're saying the kid gives you magic?

Howe laughed with his nose.

"Yes, in a way."

"... come on, you're gonna get angry"

"Just follow me."

"Huh? What? - Wow!

I took the hand of a long time shimmering Howe and flew with instant moving magic.

From the house in the back of the woods, he came to the fields spreading in an instant.

"Ko, where are we?

"A Rural in Carlisle Territory"

"What am I going to do with you bringing me here?

"This"

I pointed down.

It's a field in front of me and Howe, only one compartment, growing crops different from the others.

The field is growing flowers, dripping potatoes, potatoes and honey from its flowers.

"Don't you see?

"What... is this, like, magic?

"Yeah."

"Stupid!

Howe crawled on all fours.

Crawl to the ground and observe the honey dripping.

"It's really magic... what is this?"

"Solar flowers. Once an extinct ancient species. Characterized by draining magically concentrated honey while in the sun"

…………

Pokhan, Howe that becomes.

"Now if we build a magic field, it will become stable and supplied with magic, just like the food we have in the world today"

So once I cut the word, I stare at Howe.

"Research, will you resume?

……

A surprising, less eye-opening howe, but his expression gradually changed.

Stand up, cleverly lift the corner of your mouth, and smile invincibly.

"Oh, let's do it."

Leaders in the field motivated me again.
