āā¦ā¦ Hmm, I donāt think I can use it in its current state.ā
I said while looking at the magic wave tower.
As the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl has been completed and the magic circle analysis of Leviās spear has come to an end, I am concentrating on building the magic wave tower using multiple items as before, but this one will not be completed yet.
If we were only in a hurry to complete the magic wave tower, we wouldnāt have to go to this much trouble, but we want to complete its function as a weapon first.
At first, I thought the function as a weapon would be a bonus, but circumstances are circumstances.
Thatās not the case anymore.
However, since we had crammed so much unnecessary theory into it, we honestly had no idea what would happen if we failed to operate it.
This has made it difficult to conduct trial runs, which has been a bottleneck in the development process.
There are many theories that have been hypothesized but have not been proven.
This is also the case with the alchemists division and Altamir, but if a mistake is discovered, it could lead to a major rework.
āDonāt you think ā¦ā¦ itās okay not to build this anymore? Kudor-san said she wasnāt going to leave everything to Abel too ā¦ā¦ā
Thatās what Mea, whoās looking at the Ortem beside me, says.
But although Kudor has a theory that it is related to Moebius, the founder of the Doom tribe, she does not know what Count Julem intends to do with Mea.
In the first place, she didnāt even seem to know how much of a threat it would be.
Itās possible that she knew and didnāt tell me.
If the balance between my cooperation and the threat of Mea tipped in Kudorās mind, itās easy to imagine that she would try to abandon Mea without mercy.
In order to deal with this, I need to keep my value high.
āNo ā¦ā¦ you think about it the other way around. Thinking about aiming, accuracy, and damage to the surroundings makes it difficult.ā
āAbel ā¦ā¦?ā
āIf you ignore all that and just make a bomb that will go off and blow up the Dinrat Kingdom when the time comes, it wonāt be too difficult to complete. ā¦ā¦? Iām sure that if I just hold the switch, Kudor will have no choice but to watch my every move.ā
āArenāt you thinking of something outrageous!?ā
I stared at Meaās face.
āWhatās the matter, Abel? Did Mea say something strange? Isnāt Abel the one whoās blurting about erratic things.ā
I havenāt told Mea about what ā¦ā¦ Kudor told me yet.
I donāt know what to tell her.
In the meantime, Iāve told Peter to do some research on the Doom tribe.
Iāve done some quick research, but thereās not much information about the Doom tribe.
Iām sure there were some books written about them in the old books that the chief kept behind wards, but I couldnāt find anything of particular interest in the books circulating in the Fage territory or in Larkās library.
I donāt know if itās a secret or if thereās nothing to tell, but Peterās connections may have something to offer.
āNo ā¦ā¦ I canāt say it well, but I think I need a little insurance. You remember how Kudor was going after Mea from the very beginning?ā
āWhat? Oh ā¦ā¦ But wasnāt that aimed not at Mea, but at Zolomoniaās staff that I carried?ā
ā¦ā¦ Indeed, it would have seemed that way for Mea.
Kudor was speaking in an ancient spirit language at the time, so Mea couldnāt understand a word he was saying.
āā¦ā¦ Even if thatās the case, itās conceivable that he could re-target me or Mea for some other reason. Anyway, aside from the self-destruct mechanism, I need this. Itās the only way to keep Kudor from cutting me off. Besides, we donāt even know what Count Julem has in store for us.ā
I nodded to myself as I looked at the magic wave tower.
To be honest, at the current rate, I have no idea how long it will take to fully fill in the holes in the theory and give it shape.
At worst, it might take five years.
There are many aspects that I have no idea how to fill out.
But this is absolutely necessary.
āHmmm ā¦ā¦ But, Mea donāt thinks that Itās necessary to go this far, thought ā¦ā¦ā
Mea says so, but in reality, Kudor is dangerous.
When she fought me, she kept her magic down and only used tentacle attacks.
Even so, I couldnāt see any way to win.
āWhat kind of weapon is this, by the way?ā
I jumped up and brought my face closer to Mea.
āThank you for asking. To be honest, itās hard to define it in terms of magic formulas and arrays letter, but Iāll give you a quick and simple explanation. Itās a weapon that creates a pseudo-five-dimensional space in the form of a beam, which twists the space within its range and ensures that the target is twisted and crushed.ā
āEh ā¦ā¦ So-Somehow, it sounds amazing.ā
āBy magic formula, seven-tenths of the space that was in a straight line of passage will be transferred to the complex plane, but to be honest, Iām not quite sure how to define where itās supposed to go. I think itās safe to say sheāll probably disappear.ā
āWhatās that, so scary ā¦ā¦ā
āItās more of a beam of space than a beam ā¦ā¦ but the deployment speed is in principle only zero seconds, so there should be no way to avoid it.ā
The speed is perfect.
Itās impossible to avoid it after seeing it, unless you turn back time.
However, no matter how hard you try, the range is only about one round larger than the entire Dinrat kingdom, so I canāt use it if they escape from the country.
If you try to expand the range any further, you will lose control no matter how you try.
āHowever ā¦ā¦ The only thing is that if something goes wrong, thereās a high possibility that the whole planet, not to mention this country, will be wiped out and a huge pit will be born in this universe, so I donāt want to use it.ā
āAs I thought, isnāt it better not to build it!? I donāt think itās necessary to use it!ā
Mea grabbed me by the shoulders and shook me.
Wait a minute, thereās something I havenāt explained yet.
āIn case of emergency, it has the ability to search and target spirits with high magic power from within its range. Iāve already implemented this. But the main body is still incomplete, so it canāt shoot.ā
āAs I thought, Kudor-sanās is the only enemy as its target, right!? Isnāt it? Something happened, right, Abel!? Is there something youāre not telling Mea!?ā
Mea shook my body.
āWait a minute, Iām going to throw up! Ortem! Iām in control of an Ortem right now! Itās going to stop!ā
āOh ā¦ā¦ā
Mea stopped moving her arms and looked up behind me with a tense expression.
I slowly turn around too.
Peter and Myunhi were standing side by side, staring at my back.
āAh ā¦ā¦ Peter-san, what can I do for you?ā
āā¦ā¦ Peter-sama is here to make sure that Abel is not creating something strange.ā
Myunhi replied on Peterās behalf.
He was calm, but his anger toward me was palpable.
āUm ā¦ā¦ This one is necessary, so ā¦ā¦ Um, when did you start listening?ā
āWhat are you thinking! Peter-sama may have said that he wanted to protect the world from Count Julem, but that doesnāt mean that he wants us to destroy the world first so that Count Julem canāt do anything about it! Rather, if youāre going to shoot something like this, itās much better to let that monster do what he wants!ā
He had heard most of what I had said.
āI know that! Thatās why Iām really concerned about safety! I donāt want to accidentally destroy the world either! You should be able to understand it from my magic formula and the array notes!ā
āDo you really think youāre the only one who can understand something like that!? Peter-sama, this is no good! Should we destroy everything and put him in a cell ā¦ā¦ Peter-samaā
I also thought that Peter was quiet, but it seems that there is something wrong with him.
He was not only completely unresponsive, but he was also motionless.
Myunhi waved his hand in front of Peterās mask and muttered with a serious expression.
āHeās passed out standing up ā¦ā¦ā
