90 After Days: Annisphere'S Birthday 03
90 After Days: Annisphere'S Birthday 03
"First, shall we sort out the problem"
Yufi and Lang on my cut out, and Lang's secretary nodding like he was late and panicked.
"The first thing that will be the controversy over this issue is the stock of spiritual stones and their future fate. The popularity of magic has been recognized, and in the future the magic props will be widely crossed among the people. Spirit Stone will be needed to develop this magic prop. This is what is causing the price of spiritual stones to soar. Right? Yufi."
"Yes, the mining of spiritual stones itself is expected to be more active than in previous years. But still, it seems that it is not enough to spread the propaganda of magic props."
Uffi nods at my confirmation. The magic props created for me that couldn't be used can also be used by civilians who can't use magic. And with demonic props, the standard of living will definitely go up.
It is because everyone understands that that that is why I hope that the development of demonic props will proceed. If it makes our lives easier, it's the natural flow that makes us want it.
"But Lang wants to put the wait on this. There is no disagreement if Uffi, the queen, wants the propagation of the magic props to proceed. But if they take spiritual stones with them for all the development of magic props, this time the preservation and inheritance of culture, which is one of the responsibilities of the spiritual ministry, could become obsolete"
"Yes."
"If I take this opportunity away, the spiritual ministry will be in disarray with Uffi, the queen, or my relationship with Uffi, who is being cordial. The wind direction towards the spiritual ministry becomes unnecessarily poor because of it. When this happens, in the future, the organization called the Ministry of the Spirit will become thinner, and then the work of the Ministry of the Spirit will have to be reduced as well. This is Lang's sense of crisis, isn't it?
You're absolutely right.
The problem with Dayuan is the problem surrounding the stock of spiritual stones. Uffi wants to advance the propagation of magic tools in order to improve the lives of his people, but if he dumps all of that, he could be questioned about the survival of the Langs, the Spirit Ministry.
For example, if demonic props continue to take precedence, questions arise about the use of out-of-use spiritual stones at festivals and the like, which were traditional ways of utilizing spiritual stones. As a result, that could lead to a rebellion against the spiritual ministry.
Even though they have a connection to the time of the Ministry of Magic. It would be their real intention not to rub it any further with me. But if I didn't do anything, I'd just keep waiting for the decline. That's why Lang had to raise his voice, he said.
"But that is why the use of conventional spiritual stones is not allowed. You use it pretty flashy, are you?"
"Yes, especially this planned birthday of His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere. I think about the years that I have never been able to celebrate, and I want to do a lot of it."
"If so, it's important to look good, but can mass consumption of spiritual stones buy objection? But that's why if you get out of your hands, they might end up wanting to improve the relationship just in shape and hey..."
I sighed as I poked my cheek wand at my knees. This is harder than I thought, isn't it?
But if you hadn't told me, the Spirit Ministry might have weakened us so much that we didn't want to, and I have to thank Lang for all this advice. I brought this story after I said that Lang doesn't have an alternative either, so I guess I'm ready.
Stimulating me must be terrible for the spiritual ministry, even if there is a visible and discerning decline. Queen's reign of Uffi, and division and independence between the Ministry of Spirituality and the Ministry of Magic, HR renewal in doing so. Yeah, this isn't about being hard to move! I can't move badly!
"So, what are we gonna do?"
"That's a difficult problem..."
Uffi is also grumbling troubledly with his hands on his chin. This is not something that can be solved in half, is it?
"I knew you wanted to make it to my birthday this year?
"If possible. The more time we put aside, the more atrophic we may remain, and even if we make an opinion like this, we may not be able to move."
"You mean quite Setouchi..."
"If you are idle, if you do not have to inspire His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere, many compromised."
"You're terrified of me for a long time, me"
"That's how horrible you are. To be precise, what I've done to you. So if it's retaliation, there are nights when you can't sleep."
"That's a tough question to say that you deserve it..."
At least at a time when I was neglected, because that's the right idea. It's common sense that I've been pulling back and forth now. People and things are never certain in value. Because the balance is biased against me now.
Then it would be better for me and the Spirit Ministry to make up just now, but there is also a risk that if we reconcile poorly, the position of the Spirit Ministry will become more subtle. Then I would ask the Ministry of Spirituality to work hard, but the problem is that there is no good idea in which direction to work hard.
"I want to take the lead in the festival called My Birthday to improve my relationship with me and yet impress upon the glorious work of the Spirit Ministry. But a spiritual stone is required in the conventional way. I can buy strange objections now. But I don't even have the option of not doing it. Is it okay that you're crying to us because you're in trouble?
"... it would be inevitable if they took it that way"
Lang nodded with a grin to mock himself. He's in a difficult position, too, I realized again. I've had a little conversation before, but I feel that Lang and I changed again.
Now, what we need to discuss is how to solve this problem. I want to celebrate my birthday if I can, and I want it to be a step in the glorious activity of the Spirit Ministry. But the spiritual ministry is troubled by festive methods that have gone out of the traditional way. I want to proceed more carefully than there is national sentiment involved here.
That's why I mounted this place through Miguel. To share this concern. And think about what I can do.
"The Birthday Flow is a parade and a presentation to the people. In large part, these two things."
"These are the two, if you include a festival of congratulations at the show."
"You think the parade for the people is good because it reduces the flow a little when Yuffi's queen reigns, or adds an arrangement just like the basics do. So if you're going to make a difference, you're going to be at the show."
It's the show that's the problem. If the parade is for civilians, the presentation is for nobility. It's one of the main opportunities to let the nobles know what the royal family wants at the same time.
That's why I can't do bad things. But if you make it smaller, it doesn't make sense that it hasn't improved with me in the end. I need some kind of eye-catching impact.
But I don't know what to say, but there are a lot of people in the Spirit Ministry with old ideas. And those who can't change from there. I guess that's why the former upper management was lined up and pushed backwards: the advisor.
Anyway, the corner lang came to negotiate. I want this to be a big step and I want it to be a success, too. It's my birthday! That makes me feel odd, but it's a national festival that I have to do.
"What's the problem, the traditional way, is that spiritual stones are consumed in large quantities."
"Yep. But it is also an indication of royal authority. Even though the current policy direction is geared towards demonic props, it can be a gap to reduce the number of spiritual stones below the prescribed number than we lead."
"Ugh, it's a symbol of authority to mass spiritual stones in the first place, or as a sign of spiritual blessings, right?
Turning his gaze to Lang to make sure, a secretary-like youth sitting next to him looking at me as if he were surprised. Making his eyes look right at that gaze, the young man missed his gaze as he panicked.
"And excuse me!
"No, it's nothing good... did I say something weird?
"... that, Her Royal Highness Sister Wang had heard of no interest in spiritual faith or royal duties, and it was rudely unexpected that opinions would be uttered as such..."
"... uh. That's right, Lang. I'd like to make sure of one thing."
"Before that. I beg your pardon. Sorry, sir."
"Also, I'm sorry!
Let Lang grab the head of the young man next to him, who frowned slightly, and lower it. The youth also bowed their heads so that they could be lowered to Lang as they panicked.
"Fine, because I don't think it's disrespectful. That's what I want to hear. Hey, maybe I hate spiritual faith, or they think I'm indifferent?
"... With all due respect, I don't know what else to do if they take it that way"
"Yeah. No, it wouldn't make sense to say misunderstanding... I'm not neglecting the Spirit Faith. Though not enthusiastic, I intend to share my respect for the Spirit."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't be proposing the establishment of a ministry of spirits. I don't doubt that."
"Haha, thanks. Then I knew I wanted my birthday to be at the initiative of the Spirit Ministry. It's better if you prove that I'm a believer in the Spirit Faith as well as improving my relationship with me. It's not irrelevant my disbelief that people in the Spirit Ministry are more frightened than they need to be, is it?
Neither Lang nor Lang's secretary's youth had an answer, but that was the answer.
I didn't see any spirits. I don't know. I admit that I never thought deeply about believing it, even though I knew it.
But Yufi became a spiritual contractor, and I also met Lhumi. The spirits that materialized could also be seen. Its existence is closer than before. That's why I think we can offer more prayers than before. Experiences are important!
"Let's get back to it, but the use of spiritual stones can be a problem anyway, so as to make the festival a big deal. There's no reason not to use it at all, but I'm bad at using it the traditional way. It's also a problem to reduce it. That's a troubling story."
"... we were both the most troubled species there. So His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere."
"Hmm?"
"What would you do?
What would you do if I were you? I close my eyes to Lang's inquiry, and then close my eyes to my thoughts.
Diving just a little into my own thoughts, the answer came right out. But I don't know if it's a good thing to put that in your mouth. But I have to put it in my mouth. I have to move on. I look straight back at Lang.
"If I were you - I'd use magic props"
The field air dropped to cool down. Uffi glanced at me and Lang's secretary glanced at Lang as she peered.
Yes, if I were you, I'd make demon props for the festival. But that's the future Lang wanted to avoid. Because I wanted to inherit and preserve the traditional culture. It's a guy named Main Fall.
"... you know what I mean. Still, is that the answer?
"Yeah."
"Why?
"The future, because we can inherit the past. So if I were you, I'd sharpen what I don't need based on traditional methods, leaving only the good ones"
In this case, the culture of festivals, which consume large quantities of spiritual stones, is cut off as unnecessary. And a good thing is a form of blessing, or its thoughts and wishes.
If I were you, I would be able to thank the Spirit by using it as a magic prop. Because I've come this far because I'm a demonic prop created in the process with the results of learning and discussing magic.
"There is no future in the past. But I can think of the past as this moment, and I think I can take this thought to the future. But I can't do all of that. Because the world is changing. There's definitely something I can't stay that way. Still, take what you shouldn't lose in it. I think that's why we can change."
"... when the old faith breathes in its new faith"
"... yeah. So now, Lang says we should preserve what he calls culture. But if one day it's going to change, I also think that's people's answer. I don't know if that's going to change while we're alive, or if anyone else will."
I don't think it's a good idea if I don't change. So if it's for nothing, I want to change it, and I hope so. But I can't even say that my correctness is the only correctness in the world.
So Lang and the others, who say there's something they don't want to change, acknowledged the existence of the Spirit Ministry. I want to take their wishes and thoughts. On top of that, I want to decide how it will change. Will it change because it doesn't change, or because it doesn't want it to change?
"My dreams are no longer mine alone. So I will"
Correct your posture, stretch your spine and I go on.... and Uffi's hand was layered on my lap. If he turned his gaze toward Lang toward Uffi, Uffi looked at me as if he were seeing the loving.
To the heat of that gaze, the heat on his face seemed to rise at once. I unwittingly waved and turned away. Then I heard Yufi giggling from behind. This one, this one...!
"... hon."
Lang coughed deliberately to get the air back on the field. I posture back like a spring trick. The fever on my cheeks stays the same!
"... the words of His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere, echoed in this breast"
"Huh?"
"Her Royal Highness the King of Anisphere. Would you mind giving us a course in magic?
"... eh!? That goes to the Spirit Ministry!?"
"Nothing says all personnel in the Spirit Ministry. I'll be responsible for choosing who I teach."
I was surprised at Lang's offer. Even Uffi stares at Lang in surprise.
"To clarify, His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere's previous inventions of magic props can be seen as all that is valued for practicality"
"... yeah. Right. It's a prerequisite to use it."
"And as I see it, I use it for rituals... and in other words, there is no magic object for rituals."
I can't deny that. Because my magic props were kept in mind to recreate and use magic. Still, I don't get it when people say it's a magic item that can be used for rituals.
"... So Lang wants to devise and create a magic prop for it?
"We don't have much time, but we can't keep missing the opportunity like this. I listened to your words and hardened my heart. For once, I'd like you to teach me magic."
Seeing Lang bow his head deeply, I had to stare at the heavenly edge of his head.
What are you going to do, this situation?
