Chapter 338.1: New Strategy
The place turns quiet at Kruz's statement. Countless gazes are directed to Sytry who is all *nikoniko* smiling.
A crime, a crime huuuh S-She is right!
Research alone on Mana Materials manipulation is the most serious crime in Zebrudia and is usually banned in other countries as well. I didn't notice it at all since she said the idea so casually.
However, if you calmly think about it, Sytry is a girl without a degree in anything but she is not the kind of girl who would do research that would incriminate her. She wouldn't do that. I don't think she would do anything that would seriously incriminate her too I think.
She has a wide range of knowledge and is familiar with various institutions including Primus Academy of Magic Sciences. I am sure she got special permission to do the research or something. Even when Sytry first proposed the idea, no one pointed it out
Well, well, well, Kruz, calm down. There is no way Sytry would do illegal research without permission, and in the first place, even for Sytry, it would be difficult to do such research secretly by herself (Cry)
It's a violation of the ten sins, desu. Who in the world would give permission for such research, desu? (Kruz)
You make a good point. I can't imagine it either. Kruz looks at Sytry with an expression as if she is looking at something suspicious. Sytry says confidently while puffing out her chest.
That is of course Cry-san! (Sytry)
!? What kind of authority do you think I have Moreover, I don't remember giving you permission at all.
Kruz looks at me in shock.
I look at Sytry, but it doesn't seem like she is lying at all. It seems that from the bottom of her heart, she thinks that I have given her permission.
When Sytry, who has a quick mind and an excellent memory, gives me that look, I feel like I am the one who remembers wrong.
Maybe I just forgot about it and did give her permission to do it?
As I remain silent, unable to even believe in my past self, Kruz frowns and opens her mouth. But then Serene intervenes.
Please wait. I don't know what happened, but now is not the time to worry about the law. The world is on the verge of destruction, you know!? (Serene)
At the earliest, it could be 100 years later, you know. (Cry)
Yes! We only have 100 years! No matter how dangerous it isWe should do what we can. (Serene)
No, well, I didn't mean it that way, tho'
Serene's eyes are burning with a sense of mission. At first, I was thinking of going home quickly and calling for help, but I feel like I am being drowned more and more. Maybe inspired by what Serene said, the Members of Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai) agree with what Serene said.
Princess Serene is right. Now is not the time to be trapped by rules made by humans. (Starlight Member 1)
We cannot just stand by and watch the collapse of Yggdra The manifestation of a god. There could be great damage to human cities as well. (Starlight Member 2)
Th-That's (Kruz)
Kruz stutters. Then, as if to deliver the finishing blow, Lapis looks at me and says.
Besides Hmph. What are you worried about, Kruz? This man is Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), the one who stuck his nose into every case and got all of them under control, right? You are the one who told us that. This man is worthy of our trust. (Lapis)
Haaah!? I-I didn't say that, desu! (Kruz)
Kruz looks at me while raising a hysterical voice. When and how did I gain her trust? Even though all I can remember is getting her involved in terrible things I don't even trust my past self, but since I have been told that much, I have no choice but to do my best to live up to that trust.
I shrug my shoulders and say to my childhood friend who is waiting quietly with a smile on her face.
It looks like we have an agreement. Sytry, please explain. (Cry)
Yes. Leave it to me! Kruz-san, don't worry. Theoretically, it should work. I have all the necessary equipment and its structure in my head! I don't have the equipment ready though, so I have to start from the manufacturing stage! (Sytry)
Theoretically, huh. Its structure in my head, huh. From the manufacturing stage, huh The road ahead is a tough one.
She has *kirakira* sparkling eyes. Sytry clenches her fist tightly and declares this. And Liz speaks to me secretly.
Cry-chan, a strange switch just got turned on Syt's head, but is this okayyyy? (Liz)
It is hard to judge whether this Sytry is a useless Sytry or an okay Sytry.
Thus began the operation to move the earth's veins using the Mana Material stirring device.
In a room in Serene's mansion. In a simple strategy room centered around a large wooden table, Sytry explains the strategy.
It will take some time, but it should be much easier than dealing with a god. (Sytry)
With that introduction in mind, Sytry's strategy is simple and clear.
The center of the earth's vein that circles this planetThe World Tree. The Level 10 Treasure Shrine Temple of Origin, which has manifested due to the excessive accumulation of Mana Materials, is still being maintained by the enormous power flowing into it. In other words, if something can be done about the power flowing into it, the Treasure Shrine will gradually lose its power and eventually disappear. This is a phenomenon that has actually occurred when the position of the earth's veins changed due to extremely rare large-scale tectonics movements.
Thanks for reading! And thanks Chulbom for the Ko-fi, I'll post an extra chapter next week! What kind of shenanigans is Sytry planning to do? And I'm sure with Sytry saying that she did those research on Cry's order will make people think that he planned everything in order to save the world.
