Chapter 460 - The Fage Territory after a long time (1)
I was reading a book to my son, Medio, on my lap.
“Okay, Medio, when you make minor adjustments to your magic, you must ultimately think on a scale smaller than that of a spirit. That’s the smallest unit of the spirit body, the spirit child. Many sorcerers do not understand the spirit child and can only handle magic by placing a stylized magic circle. But you’re going to learn it. Listen, a spirit child, this thing can never be perceived by humans through normal means. However, various theories support the fact that it exists. In the past, sorcerers could not understand the changes in magical phenomena caused by this thing, and they developed magic circles by brute force. This is the main reason why sorcerers have been regarded as the language of the gods or the will of the gods.”
“Ah!”
Medio raised his voice.
I gently stroked Medio’s blue hair and turned to the next page.
“The most simple theory that describes the world of the spirit child is Priest Yohanan’s Theory of All Points, although Gillemeim’s Eleventh Dimensional Transformation is considered the closest to the truth of the world. This is strictly wrong, but we can get a pseudo-simple understanding of it. In short, it is a theory of what is convenient to regard as such. It is a theory that is created by dismissing what cannot be seen as invisible, by being rough and true, and sometimes by daring to play dumb. It is wrong when viewed from a small world perspective, but it is able to accurately represent the effects of magical phenomena on the macroscopic world. However, in magical formulas that govern time, space, and gravity, this difference comes out as a clear contradiction. In short, infinity and imaginary numbers frequently appear and get messed up. I believe that the reason why these three things are considered forbidden in the Maharbo religion only for the gods is that after exploring the theories of Priest Yohanan, he found that these discrepancies caused fatal contradictions, and that they should not be reproduced by humans in magic. One of the reasons for this is that the spread of this idea in the Maharbo religion coincides with the time when Priest Yohanan’s theory came to that country. But the proponent, Priest Yohanan, knew of this error. It is said that Priest Yohanan’s theory of the point of all things was used as an easy-to-understand law when teaching magic to his subordinates. In fact, Priest Yohanan had developed a theory called the Non-Existent Seven-Dimensional S-Shaped Spirit Child to replace the local field theory, filling in the shortcomings of this theory. This is an imaginary spermatozoon brought up to bridge the discrepancy between the small world and the macroscopic world. So what is it? Strictly speaking, it is more suitable to call it a conversion formula. This spirit child, with its horribly convenient properties, can be found at ……”
“Abel, please don’t do this to him!”
“Whoa!”
I was surprised to hear Mea’s voice, and I shook my shoulders.
“N, no, Mea, I just wanted to read Medio a book!”
“You can’t call a magic book a picture book if it only has illustrations in it sometimes!”
Mea took Medio from me and held him in her arms.
“Don’t worry, Medio, you’ll turn into Abel if you read that stuff.”
“…… Hey, Mea, haven’t you been cold to me lately?”
When I said that, Mea puffed up her cheeks.
“Abel, you never listen to me. Mea learned that I need to be a little more strict with you.”
“Ugh ……”
“Medio and Alma are not even a year old again. Please don’t fill their heads with sorcerer before they can remember.”
Mea’s intentions are strong, it’s no use, let’s give up.
My parents had been telling me not to do this.
If I do not, I may be separated from my child.
“Ah!”
Medio was reaching for me, or rather, for his book.
“Me-, Mea, Medio wants to learn!”
“It’s just a coincidence!”
That’s what Mea said to me strongly.
Ugh ……
“Abel-sama, Abel-sama!”
I heard a strange voice from outside.
Oh, that voice is Penrath’s.
“Come in, old Pen.”
The door swung open.
“I’m afraid I have something to say to you …… Abel-sama, why did you treat Ms. Alta in such a manner?”
“in such a manner ……?”
I don’t have any idea.
I’ve not had any particular conversations with Altamir lately ……
“Please don’t play dumb, Abel-sama! Why did you block Ms. Alta from the magic cell phone Magiphone from your contacts!”
…… Now that I think about it, that’s true.
Since Mea’s birth, I’ve been getting about fifty calls a day on my magic cell phone Magiphone, so last week I tweaked the function so that it doesn’t show any calls from Altamir.
“Or to be more precise, block calls. No, she’s been harassing me ……”
Fage territory seems to be in trouble, and it’s time to head over there.
No, but you can’t complain if I want to play with Medio and Alma a little longer.
“…… Abel-sama, Ms. Alta has quite a bit of this stuff. She made agreements with several city lords and merchants regarding the magic cell phone Magiphone.”
Penrath puts his hand in front of his mouth to keep his voice down and makes a circle with his thumb and forefinger with his other hand.
“Wha, What! She did that without telling me!”
“She completely refused. In addition, Abel-sama has had his hands full with his children for the past six months, and has left the handling of such rights to Baron Lark.”
“I see ……”
“The current Ms. Alta has become one of the wealthiest women in the Dinrat Kingdom based on her investments alone. Ms. Alta says she’s ready to pay a fair price to Abel-sama. But only on condition that he comes to the Fage territory in person.”
Damn you Altamir, you’re planning to call me out no matter what.
I’ve already told you that I’ll come to you when I’ve calmed down, looks like it’s time for me to head to Fage territory for once.
The only problem is that it’s not an easy distance to get to.
I’ll have to leave Mea, Medio, and Alma behind for a while.
It would be nice if we had an easy way to get around, but Peter warned us not to fly the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl.
Having a vehicle that can be flown by an individual seems to be quite dangerous if it becomes a big deal.
There will be more people who will be scared, and it will provoke other countries, he said.
Peter told me that he would not mind if we did it privately, but that we should not bring out anything that would have too much influence.
While I was fully obeying Peter, in my heart I was mocking him saying, “You idiot, once the magic cell phone Magiphone is out there, you can’t stop the world from changing,” but anyway, because of that, I had no choice but to take a carriage to the Fage territory.
“What can I do for you, Abel-sama?”
“…… Altamir, she has a lot of money to sweep up now, doesn’t she?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
…… I was once again wondering what the orange witch, who is supposed to be sealed in the tower, was doing to stand out.
“Okay, I’ll talk to Mea, but I’ll probably be there soon. But first, we have to make some preparations. Old Pen, will you follow me!”
“Of course, Abel-sama! This fool is honored to be here!”
Penrath bowed deeply, then glanced up at me.
“…… Abel-sama, why don’t you unblock Ms. Alta for now?”
“That would be too annoying, so no. Old Pen, please keep the message from Altami …… Alta-san short and to the point.”
“I have no choice but to do so.”
