A technique using mineral wood, how nice to find one.

Evvia is admiringly looking at a partial transcription of a book she found in the wise men's library in Amelia.

I followed something almost intuitively and took a peek, which turned out to be a bonanza.

The idea is to make the mineral tree a second magical crest, allowing it to absorb twice as much magic through its owner's magical crest and the newly created magical crest.

In addition, the recoil is minimal.

The downside is that there is no established method to create mineral trees that have grown enough to connect to the user, making it an ideal weapon, but difficult to create.

However, the downside is that I don't have that disadvantage, and the way it's used has nothing in common with restoring magic power, so it's not a problem.

I'm sorry for Memoria, who was surprised to see me finish recording and jump up, but I ran out of the room without a second thought.

As I ran to Evvia, she stared at the paper I'd brought her, and silence fell.

".........

How's that?

The appointment was timed so that I could meet with Evvia right away, thanks to the fact that she was able to put in an appointment at any time.

Then I handed her the material I had found, and she was examining the technique closely.

The silence made me nervous and thirsty, and I couldn't help but ask if it was a bad idea.

No, it doesn't matter from any point of view, theoretically or theoretically. This one.

"Then!

Calm down.

If not, I had to go back to Amelia again, and I was impatient to show my joy when Evvia told me that the method was fine.

She chastised me for it.

Before I could ask why, Evia began to explain the reason.

"There is no hole in the technique, the method, the nature, or any of its theories. Certainly this method could help Suela. It could, and there are mineral trees that could do it. But think critically. Jiro, do you have an ordinary mineral tree?

It was a theoretical theory, but in Evvia's opinion it could work just fine.

That was fine in itself, but then I remembered the key to the mineral tree, its condition.

Dragon's Bone.

That's right, that mineral tree is absorbing dragon bones that should never have been there, even ancient dragon bones. You will understand the effects of this better, Jiro.

My mineral tree can certainly connect with its users.

Then, if you carve the magic you find into the mineral tree, you can implement the theory.

But that's the way of the Staff of Adsael.

Not my mineral tree's way.

My mineral tree just evolved on its own and had similar characteristics.

There is no mention of ancient dragon bones embedded in Adsael's staff, and the connection to the mineral tree was made before it absorbed the dragonbone.

......... The problem is the constitutional change caused by the dragonbone.

That's it! The blood in your body isn't human anymore. No, it was originally your blood, but the dragon bone absorbed by the mineral tree made it a mixture of human and dragon. When you were remade, the strain on your body was unimaginable, wasn't it?

My brow wrinkles at the pointed words as they are plugged in.

What kind of strain the difference in the long bones would put on Suela's body here is becoming a bottleneck.

I should have known this when I brought this up.

I realize that I didn't think hard enough when Evvia mentioned the problem.

It's not a burden that a pregnant woman can bear: .........

If Suela won't have it, neither will the fetus.

That is to say.

That's how it works.

That this way makes no sense.

Evvia nodded calmly at that.

"d*mn!

You can't do the same kind of thing, say, if you had the same features.

That's what it proved to be. You're back to square one, and your frustration is evident, perhaps compounded by the fact that you're feeling a little broken.

Your fists tighten.

I told you to calm down.

?

But when I shook my heart to make up for lost time, Evvia said a little dismayed, "Don't panic.

"Not all your efforts were in vain. As far as I'm concerned, I think I found a solution.

What does it mean?

I was starting to get confused, some saying it was okay, some saying it wasn't, and my head was starting to get confused.

Would I normally be able to keep my cool?

Such thoughts began to mix in.

"If we can't use your mineral tree 'directly', we can just make something to put between them.

But that doesn't mean you can't send magic directly to them, does it?

It's a change of pace, says Evvia, as her tired brain desperately tries to decipher her words.

The mineral tree is rooted in the user, connecting a direct line to the user and allowing magic power to pass back and forth.

If something like a filter is inserted there, magic power cannot go back and forth directly and its effect will not occur.

It can't be Evvia who doesn't understand that.

You'll be able to find out if it's the right thing to do.

"So you've forgotten my tribe. They say when it comes to contracts, you're the best demon in the world.

!

It was a blind spot.

Then I saw what Evvia was trying to say.

It's true that the properties of the mineral tree cannot be used if it's physically sandwiched between us. But if you can't physically interrupt it, then I can use my contractual magic to temporarily limit some of your mineral tree's functions until it's interrupted, so that it can function at its full potential.

Really, the women around me are too talented.

I haven't seen a grin and a mischievous smile in a long time, a smile that smells of mischief as it flutters and shakes the formula I gave it.

Everyone lives in an atmosphere of depression, and when they do smile, it's only with a wry, fleeting smile.

Only now, a ray of hope in the air allowed Evvia to return to her usual state of mind.

"Good thing we have that tedious formula structure in place. If we'd built it from scratch, we probably wouldn't be in time. That doesn't mean we have much time to spare, though.

With thumping arms and the index finger of his right hand, Evvia is trying to set up a rhythm in his head.

......... just in time, but it's not too late.

And the moment she finally tapped her arm with a ton, the schedule in her assembles.

Evvia acted quickly, with a look of determination on her face.

Jiro! You go get the mineral tree, take it and then run to the research area. You there, contact the Giant King! Tell him he's the best, let him owe me a favor in my name, no problem! Hurry up, no time to lose!

And when it's decided, the law of the Demon King's army is to act immediately.

I'll leave Evvia's side and run off to get the mineral tree.

I've already used one hundred hours of the time limit of 120 hours.

There's less than a day's worth of time left.

In that time, I must give the tree its magic and make a deal with it so that Suela can use it.

How long that will take, I don't know.

But this is our last chance.

If I can't, a feeble thought rises up from the bottom of my heart, but I shake it off, letting more magic flow into my legs as I run and accelerate.

The voice warns you not to run in the company, and you still accelerate.

You've spent a long time, yes, an infinitely long time forcing yourself to use up what little time you had off.

You're going to be able to get the most out of your time spent accelerated by the spirit of space-time, Mr. Valus, and you're going to have to use potions to recover your magical power, and you're going to have some abnormalities all over your body.

The body is dull, of course, and the flow of magic power is poor.

The body is not perfect, so I pour the magic power into the magic crest, hoping that it will be a little more, a little more, and move the body to its full potential.

For Suela who is still suffering and trying to live.

I'm going to turn that suffering into joy as my feet give their last stand.

I walk into the office and run into the party room, sounding like a car skidding and drifting on the ground.

Everyone looks at me, wondering what's going on, but I don't have the mental or physical luxury to explain.

"Memoria.

!

Just one thing, grab the mineral tree, call the memoria that was still doing research, give it a thumbs-up, and I'll be a gust of wind again.

I've never felt so far from the research compartment.

It won't take more than a few minutes to get here, but still, maybe it's because I'm in a time-accelerated state, or maybe it's because I'm in a mental hurry, but every second feels like an awful long time.

I've been waiting for you.

In front of the research compartment, Evvia was standing next to a giant man, for whom even the word "big" would not suffice.

She sees me and rushes in, and her gaze shifts from me to the next giant.

"Show me.

I know that giant.

Once clearly at the induction ceremony, and often afterwards, it was a distant but potent presence.

Hands, the king of the giants.

The King of the Giants, Warlock.

It was immediately apparent what it meant to hold out that huge arm and ask me to show it to you.

Without looking at Evvia, I hold out my buddy in my hand.

The hilt is small in the giant king's hand, and his eyes run over the blade as if he were holding a dagger.

.........

I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but it's like a huge rocky mountain, emitting an overwhelming presence, but it's still looking at my mineral tree, not moving even slightly.

You're going to be able to find out what you're looking for, and you're going to be able to find out what you're looking for.

......... is a nice piece of jewelry. Good, Evia, I'll take you up on your offer.

Then Oyama, who hadn't moved an inch, begins to move.

He blinked once, then, without looking at me, looked at Evia and opened his mouth.

A heavy, bass-heavy voice, the embodiment of the stubbornness of a craftsman at the top of his game.

The voice seemed to compliment Mineki, but then it quickly moved on.

"Man, my name is...

And then, without waiting for Evvia's answer, the voice is directed at me.

A grave voice that emits an intimidating authority to match its massive body is directed with deep eyes that seem to see everything.

Tanaka Jiro.

Tanakajiro, I've learned. I respect you for having trained this tree so well.

"Yes, yes

Is it because of the craftsmanship that he is somewhat slow-paced.

In a tense situation, the praise was so great that all I could do was say yes.

Hearing that reply, the giant king nodded with satisfaction and walked into the research compartment.

I looked at Evvia as if to confirm what the hell was going on, and she was smiling and laughing.

You're a stubborn, stubborn giant king, you really never get tired of it.

"I got a compliment, didn't I?

I was distracted by the earlier exchange, and I couldn't resist asking Evvia in a questioning way, and she nodded her head 'oh' and affirmed it.

"He sees his presence through the weapons and armor. He sees them through weapons and armor. They're just a few stones in the rough. But I suppose he changed his mind after seeing the mineral tree you grew.

After a satisfied smile, which turned into a serious face, Evvia continued to speak.

"Honestly, it was a gamble. I could summon him, but only the demon king can make him wave his arms for sure. But even a demon king can't get him to wave his arms with motivation.

Honestly, it was a bad bet for the minute, says Evvia.

The guy, the warlock, is a genuine craftsman. He's a general, but he's essentially a blacksmith, an eccentric who has mastered the martial arts in the process of forging weapons. His skill in forging weapons is unrivaled in the army of the demon king. If you want to make sure that Jiro's mineral tree is properly and swiftly integrated with that technique, there is no one better than him.

The gaze that had been watching me is now directed toward the research compartment, as if to follow the back of the giant king who had just stood there.

If I follow his gaze, I'll be able to follow his gaze as well.

"So skilled is he that he doesn't care about position, honor, money or women. Only his loyalty to the devil king for his skill and his quest to perfect his ultimate armor. He reigns as giant king only because of his loyalty. If it weren't for that, I'd still be in some workshop somewhere, swinging a hammer.

I understood from Evvia's explanation that she was an eccentric, or rather one of the most prominent in a group with a sharp personality.

But the betting part didn't quite make sense to me.

Can I ask you one thing: ".........?

"What? I'll be free too until he finishes. I'll answer if I can.

"Why bet on it? I'm sure he's a craftsman by the sounds of it, but he even called in a guy of the same rank, Evvia, who said he owed him a favor. I don't think the reward is so low that you have the option to say no.

I told you, he has no compassion for his loyalties and inquisitiveness. If your mineral tree is considered inadequate, your request would have been rejected without a doubt. And he's the only one who has the skill to meet the time limit.

!

"To tell the truth, I owe no one but him. What could be fatal to anyone else, he's the only one I feel comfortable with in a way. That's a lot of credit, but on the other hand, he's the one who has trouble even making the credit.

I heard that they only lend you the materials for the weapons that the Giant King wants to make.

The price is said to be so expensive that it's almost scary to ask, but compared to other generals' loans, it's much cheaper.

We usually say something about cooperation, but that's just because we are the same rank.

You can't live in this world if you're seen as lowly, that's the meritocracy of the demon king's army.

Even if it's to help Suera, sometimes they abandon compassion.

That is the demon king's army.

You will be able to find out the best way to make your life easier.

Jiro, I'm not going to say anything about the relationships around you. Jiro, I'm not going to say anything about your relationship. But if you want to keep this relationship going, you have to keep raising your own value. And then you will protect your surroundings, like this one.

I laugh and reply to her as she continues, "Or else.

"I'm quite aware of that.

This is not a gang of brave men who can be summed up in a pretty story.

The demon king's army told atrociously.

Where there is no fire, there is no smoke.

Then that aspect will exist too.

But.

And yet I still sit here at the company.

I'll give you more value if it means I can help you out a little bit more.

I laughed at her and told her to bring an arrow or a gun, and she shrugged her shoulders, "Oh dear.

"Hey Jiro.

"What?

Then I grinned, and Evvia called me over to look at her face.

"If I was like Suela...

I'll help you.

Then, with a slight unease, she replied with a bite of her words, "I'll make it worth your while to help Evvia.

"Make it worth it, so you can help Evvia.

I jokingly told him I was serious.

"Right, then,

Hearing that, Evvia was suddenly relieved and a smile appeared on her face.

I'll be able to put all my energy into the work that follows.

Later on, you have assured me that the journey will be done.

Word of the Day

You become inexplicably happy when your efforts are rewarded.
