567 Before Ain Leaves The King'S City.
But that\'s the trouble.
Among those who returned to the airship, researchers in particular were puzzled.
The reason for this was that I saw a piece of a magic weapon called the Iron King\'s Hammer.
Lord Leonard.
And it came to pass, in the evening, that they that went down upon the earth returned, and the days were changed.
Under Leonard, who was entrusted with the command of a group, a group of dispatched researchers took their place.
The man comes to Leonard\'s room and hands him the report that he had.
"This is today\'s report."
"Oh, let\'s read it tonight."
"... no, please read it immediately. If you pass the first one, I\'ll report it directly to you."
Leonard frowned.
Obviously in a hurry, he quickly nodded and looked at the report.
As I was told, I started to read the first letter without saying it aloud.
Then Leonard\'s eyes changed quickly.
I\'m sorry, but can you call Lord Mutton?
"I think that\'s what you said, and you\'ve already spoken up." I was wondering if you\'d be here soon. "
"Oh, thank you."
After hearing the voice of the facilitator, Leonard turned again to the report.
... after all, it doesn\'t seem to be a misreading.
There\'s no mistake, is there?
"Of course, as it says--" "Oh! I\'m here because I was called!" "-Mr. Shearton is here too, so I\'ll explain it to you together."
"Huh? I don\'t know if you\'ll tell me a difficult story."
"Don\'t worry. I was wondering if you could understand what happened around the magic tool."
It\'s just that you have to say it first.
Leonard, a man named Mutton, was also surprised, but he had a bright side to his magic tools and magic weapons for blacksmiths.
If you ask me why, I think it\'s because I learned it in a book.
Thinking that that was all he could understand, Leonard read the same book before leaving the capital.
However, it is not a matter of being able to understand.
It is impossible to understand the crystallization of wisdom by many researchers, both professionals and professionals.
So Leonard reconfirmed Roland\'s greatness, and at the same time he was amazed by Mutton\'s genius.
I\'m sorry it\'s so sudden.
"Fine, I\'m here to do my job." So, what are you talking about? "
Leonard sent a message to the researcher.
"Actually--"
The co-facilitator told us that today, he investigated a part of the Hammer of the Iron King.
Everything is written in the report, but as he said earlier, he only explained it from his mouth.
Eventually, after the conversation, Leonard shut up.
Because I was not at the stage of speaking up yet, and I didn\'t feel like putting my expertise into it.
"Hmm... I see."
Along the way, even though it was an explanation with advanced jargon that I couldn\'t understand, Mutton nodded with a translated face.
"After all, I don\'t really know the latest magic tools or magic weapons." I can\'t say that I clearly understand the technical issues, but this time, I can talk about it. "
Lord Mutton? Why is that?
"Because the iron hammer is an old technology." That said, you can\'t be stupid because you\'re old. Isn\'t that right? "
Asked by Leonard, Mutton told the researcher that he was the coordinator.
"Yes, as Lord Mutton put it, dwarf technology, no matter how many months or days go by, will remain the crystal of technology that is nowhere else."
"I know that old technology because there were a lot of books like that in the house where I used to live."
According to Mutton, it was a book left by my father.
He seems to have lost his memory a long time ago, and he doesn\'t remember much about his family or what he was born of.
However, the knowledge you have learned will remain with you.
Old magic tools can be troublesome.
The problem that came up in the story... "
Mutton touches on the main subject of the investigation of a part of the Hammer of the Iron King.
Apparently, the Iron King\'s hammer was a huge magic weapon than we thought.
"That\'s what I\'m talking about, so we can only look into some of them and we\'re missing some information."
"But that\'s enough." I got the information I wanted to know, so I feel like I\'m better as an Ishtarika. "
That said, Mutton took the researchers\' report.
Until now, Leonard was sitting on a sofa. If you open it, there is also a sketch of the inside of the hammer by the researcher.
Especially some magic tools made by our dwarves don\'t let go of their magic power easily.
The conciliator listens to his words.
Mutton tells the story of how the Dwarves created an old magic tool, a magic weapon, that is different from what it is today.
"The magic tool in an era without sea crystals has a slightly different method of controlling magic power." Recently, I\'ve heard that there are more magic tools that use sea crystals on that continent, but the things that dwarves make are not the same as the crude magic tools that were prevalent on that continent. "
He goes on.
"The bigger the specialty, the more complicated the control device becomes. If it is a magic weapon with destructive power, if you inadvertently release your magic power---"
"... what\'s going to happen?"
If the internal magic power moves unexpectedly, it will probably blow up.
It\'s quite possible after all, isn\'t it?
The organizer did not know the kind of story that Mutton said, but when investigating the iron gavel, he decided that it was dangerous to inadvertently pull out the magic tool.
That wasn\'t a mistake, I could tell from Mutton\'s words.
"The Dwarf Magic Stone Furnace has more than twice the output compared to the modern Magic Stone Furnace." The energy taken from the Magic Stone filled the inside of the Hammer half-permanently, but when the flow was badly tampered with, the Magic Stone Furnace rushed out. The excess energy output said it was not strange to let the Iron King hammer run wild. "
Why is Mutton talking like this?
Also, why did you prepare such a report?
Everything was going to be in the second formation, Ein.
Is it not advisable for you to absorb the magic power?
"Huh? I don\'t think it\'s any different as far as I\'m concerned."
"Don\'t be ridiculous!" How can you say that!? "
Well, from what I\'ve read, I don\'t think I can kill or seriously injure you with a hammer.
"... even so." If you want to leave a shallow wound on the continent, it will never be acceptable. "
I\'m done with this.
Anyway, this is going to change my schedule a lot.
Initially, the first team, including Leonard, investigated the Iron King\'s Hammer and the others, and if possible, Ein would suck up the magic power of the Iron King\'s Hammer, which Ein proposed himself.
But I can\'t say that in this situation.
As a general rule, we should avoid Ein if it is certain that he will be injured.
Leonard thinks back to what he said and holds his head back.
However, I immediately raised my face and took the message bird I had prepared in this room.
A pair of message birds are located in a large conference room in the castle.
Please wait!
Once that was done, the buddy stopped.
"The Dwarfs of the Iron Nation have more complex and intelligent technology than we can imagine! If this is true, it is a matter of the technology of the Iron King\'s hammer that the queen spoke of."
"I understand. I will contact the Chancellor accordingly."
◇◇◇◇
The Warrens I contacted weren\'t as good as Leonard, but they came up with an idea.
But soon, Ein leaves the castle on her own.
Based on the report from Leonard, he said that he could confirm with the Queen, and took Marco to the outskirts of the capital.
― ― ― The two of them secretly left the castle, but without a knight standing, there was no special vigilance.
It is only a building prepared in the guise of an ordinary private house, and the iron country dwarfs have disguised it so as not to be corrupted by the information.
But in fact, I can\'t be too vigilant.
Naturally, there were a number of good knights, and there were many knights who dressed as the king\'s people outside.
Enter the building and head underground, where doors with magic tools overlap.
The Queen of the Iron Kingdom is with Lil, the waiter.
They were surprised by Ain and Marco, who had suddenly arrived, but the queen greeted them somewhat with great eagerness and unmistakable standing in the office.
I\'ve been checking the hammer.
"... yes, I thought so."
"So, I knew you had to go back to the iron country." I\'d like to ask you about this, but how much time do you have before the Iron King\'s Hammer runs rampant? "
Ein\'s eyes, unenclosed, heard majestically.
Looking at it, besides the pressure on her heart, the queen felt envy for a strength that she did not have, that if he were a king, the people would definitely feel trustworthy.
Then, the tears naturally faded.
Aware of his pathetic feelings, he answers with a weak, trembling voice.
"Njuu... twenty... twenty... twenty... twenty...?"
The truth is, Ein has more room than I thought.
We\'re not in a hurry yet.
"Queen! Why...?"
Then Lil, the waiter, hurriedly told the queen.
How can you tell the truth? It\'s dangerous.
To put it bluntly... If I knew I could afford it, I\'d just say that the Queen\'s worth would be wiped out all at once.
(Looks like this. Probably not a lie.)
I don\'t think we need to use Shannon\'s powers to get around it.
Either way, I want to avoid using that power over and over again.
Perhaps ethical matters should be divorced, but Ain also wanted to avoid causing abnormalities in the spirit of the person who exercised them.
Especially since the Queen is still an important person.
(If 20 years is true, we\'re probably going to have a good chance of doing something with our technology.)
According to the results of the first day\'s survey, it was argued that it should not move easily, but as one year, five years and months passed, the technology of the iron king\'s hammer became clear.
Eventually, Ishtarika should be able to deal with it.
"Ugh... ah... ah... ahh..."
The queen leaked her sobs, and tears fell from her eyes unstoppably.
Lil\'s support for the Queen made it impossible for him to remember anything cruel.
"--- I\'m sorry I came all of a sudden today."
Ein said that and took his seat, not long after he arrived.
The queen tried to see him off, but Ein gently said, "It\'s okay," and she sat down.
Instead, Lil tried to drop him off, but Ain, who also controlled it, left the basement with Marco.
Eventually, when he went outside, he saw Marco\'s face.
"I\'m sure she\'s not fit for a queen."
"... yes. Apparently, it\'s just a gentle girl, and it\'s not suitable for the ruler, as Ein-sama says."
That\'s why I don\'t want to punish you.
I had no choice but to make the country take responsibility for itself, but there was nothing I could do about the feeling of indivisibility.
...... Ein is returning to the castle with a painful mood. Of course, the two of them were disguised, and they were careful not to expose the place where the queen was just in case.
(The treatment of the queen...)
There is no doubt that we can\'t make a decision yet.
Everything will be investigated tomorrow, and Sylvard, Warren, and the Aristocrats will have their say.
Anyway, Ein may not be here anymore.
If it is concluded that it is better not to force his hand, then there is no curtain to him.
--But there was one question he had.
If the former counselor of the Golden Route was involved, would things be so easy to settle down?
I don\'t think so. Ein spent the night thinking about it.
And the next morning, Ein\'s prediction would be in the center.
A group of people who investigated the Hammer at first thing in the morning will contact us urgently.
I found something suspicious inside the Iron King\'s hammer.
As soon as I received this report, I realized that Ein could not remain irrelevant, and I reconsidered that I might as well go.
