Chapter 198
Guided by Miho, we started wandering in search of Laplace.
“You know him well, right? Why is it so crazy going here and there?”
I’m not looking for it, I’m literally ‘wandering’ looking for it.
“It’s because the mana density inside Mt. Baekdu is so high that it has become a maze-like structure. If you look at it roughly, it looks like it went here and there. They are all going the right way.”
But it just seems to be wandering.
Miho is properly chasing after Laplace.
“Of course I know that mana detection inside Mt. Baekdu means nothing. I know that I have no choice but to run around to find something.”
This is not the first time Director Charles has been to Mt. Baekdu.
As such, you must know about the incomprehensible structure of Mt. Baekdu.
“I mean, wandering is good, but why are you still not able to leave the entrance of Mt. Baekdu? It also comes back the way it came. I’m going back the way I went… … .”
“I guess it’s because it’s the shortest route to Laplace. Maybe.”
“Perhaps. f*ck this… … .”
Captain Charles let out a sigh as the ground disappeared.
“It has already been 4 hours. Can you find this before 18:00 tomorrow?”
It was quite understandable that Captain Charles sighed like that.
The horse is looking for Laplace, because it is just running round and round in the beginning section.
Even I, who completely trusted Miho, felt a bit frustrated, but what about Captain Charles?
“Wouldn’t it be better to just go to heaven and earth, whatever it is? If you go there, he might detect something else. … … Of course, since Mana is like this, I don’t know if I can go there.”
It seems that distrust of Miho is growing in real time.
“It’s not that I don’t believe in his abilities. Considering the characteristics of Mt. Baekdu, it is good to change the location.”
No, I don’t think so.
There may have been a history of detecting shadows before. Trust still seems strong.
“hmm. no. It just seems right to leave it as it is.”
Miho’s expression is still confident. Not even a hint of doubt can be found.
Miho is clearly chasing Laplace.
Doing anything more here is just a hindrance.
‘Miho must be here because she has an idea.’
No matter what, only Miho can find Laplace.
It’s okay to let Miho do whatever he wants, whether he’s doing something stupid or something.
“… … okay. You must have your own thoughts.”
Captain Charles sighed deeply. He respected my words, but his expression was frustrating.
“Because it’s the beginning, you can’t even see monster-like monsters. I’m bored. haaam.”
Drowsiness seemed to come after hours of meaningless walking.
He yawns loudly while holding his pod behind his neck.
Looking at the slight tears in her eyes, she seems genuinely sleepy.
“Oh right.”
Then, as if realizing something, he turned his gaze to me, his eyes shining.
“I’m bored, that’s what I promised earlier. I can keep it now.”
“Did you promise earlier?”
What promise are you talking about?
So I tilted my head slightly.
At my reaction, Charles’ expression cooled.
“… … The secret to blocking Thunderbird’s thunderbolt. Do you want me to pass it on?”
“ah. right.”
And then I saw it.
Induction of electrons by telekinesis.
I asked you to tell me the secret.
I completely forgot.
“You forgot it? it’s okay. don’t teach me ah. hurt self-esteem. Are you ignoring my magic like this?”
Captain Charles pursed his lips slightly and muttered.
He seems to think that his magic has been ignored.
“sorry. It’s just that I’m not in a good mood, and I had no intention of ignoring it.”
“it’s okay. I’m already pissed off.”
I tried my best to ease Captain Charles’ mood.
No, isn’t it hard?
“How can I ignore that great magic? It’s the greatest magic I’ve ever seen.”
greatest magic.
With those words, Charles’ body trembled.
“… … really? Do you think my magic is the greatest?”
“yes. Sure. I think it’s the best magic that exists in this era.”
It was sincere.
Magic that exists in this era.
That’s why, it’s probably the best among magic other than bi-tenor.
At least by my standards.
“Hmm. that, right? I mean.”
As if feeling my sincerity through my gaze, Captain Charles cleared his throat with an expression of embarrassment.
“… … Then do you want to know about my magic?”

“yes. How on earth can they show off a skill close to the miraculous of hitting and inducing electrons with telekinesis? I am very curious.”
“A skill close to divine… … . big hmm Well, it’s not that level of magic.”
At the praise that followed, Captain Charles’ expression instantly melted.
He was a surprisingly easy-going person.
It seems that he is weak even in praise.
“good. Then you have to tell me again.”
Captain Charles crossed his arms with a proud expression.
“You know how to use telekinesis, right? No, have you tried it?”
“yes. It is magic belonging to basic magic.”
Telekinesis is something I’ve used several times.
Compared to Captain Charles’ telekinesis, it was a clumsy telekinesis that was not even the blood of a bird.
“Then I guess you know. The basic telekinesis listed in the open-source library feels like a whimper, doesn’t it?”
“… … yes?”
Whoops?
“But the original telekinesis I use is saaaaaagh! What does it feel like? This is where the difference comes in.”
“… … .”
Charles was excited and continued to explain.
“Such a shock! If you use telekinesis with the feeling of putting it in… … .”
But I couldn’t quite figure out what he meant.
What is Shuuuuung and Saaaak?
There are just more question marks in my head.
Even after that, Charles’ explanation continued without a break.
Maybe about 20 minutes?
“look. Like this. Electrons are also induced in this way. got it?”
Soon all explanations will be finished.
Charles said, ‘How are you? Is it easy?’ He smiled triumphantly with that expression.
“… … yes. I get it.”
i get it.
I get it very well.
“I know very well that Captain Charles is a typical genius wizard.”
“no way. Well, already such a compliment… … embarrassing.”
“It is not a compliment.”
The type that relies solely on their own intuition.
As such, it is a type that is close to impossible to convey one’s knowledge to others.
“Captain Charles. Do you often hear people say that you can’t explain?”
genius among geniuses.
Captain Charles belonged to that department.
“… … Oh no? Do you hear every day that I have a talent for explanation?”
He averts his gaze and answers with a whistle.
It was an attitude and words that were clearly lying to anyone.
* * *
Time passed again after that.
Some seven hours had passed since I started exploring Mt. Baekdu.
Nevertheless, we are still wandering around the entrance to Mt. Baekdu.
“what. Aside from not being able to understand, I got it right. After all, was my explanation perfect?”
In the meantime, I was concentrating all my attention on learning Charles’ magic.
Thanks to that, I managed to get my own tips.
“… … It’s absolutely not, so don’t go and explain that again. It’s a matter of Commander Charles’s dignity, so I’m giving this advice seriously.”
I’m saying you don’t know
Charles’s map was never good.
The fact that I was able to imitate Charles’s magic, even at a superficial level, was purely thanks to the power of God’s Eye.
The magic that Charles showed as a demonstration was detected with the divine eye, analyzed, and realized as it is.
Of course, it was only a magic that was barely enough to cover the surface of a watermelon.
“… … this. when inducing electrons. It’s difficult to control the power. How do you do it?”
“Ah, you can do it with the feeling of sueueu. If you try to apply too much force, it will resist. … .”
Charles’s method of explaining genius began again.
The person himself would think he was explaining kindly to the world, but a whole parade of words that I, who listened to the explanation, had no idea what they were talking about.
“Did you understand?”
“… … yes. I hear you.”
I heard those explanations with one ear and let them out with the other.
No, I heard it, but I couldn’t understand it, so I just threw it away.
“A real genius is a genius.”
Charle’s magic is very sensuous.
Electron strike through telekinesis.
I felt keenly why this was a magic that only existed in theory.
It is ridiculously difficult to control the power once.
You have to apply force only enough to move very small particles called electrons very minutely.
This doesn’t really make sense.
This control is something unknown that goes far beyond the level of finely adjusting power.
It’s so difficult that even I can’t bear to follow it.
How the hell are you doing this so freely?
‘It doesn’t make sense to target invisible electrons precisely and move only a small number of electrons independently.’
It’s worth doing, though.
Now, the preparation time becomes an infinite practice time.
This is not something that can be used in actual combat, where lives come and go in seconds.
“This magic… … For now, I can’t use it.”
“why? I see you have talent. It’s the first time I’ve seen anyone else feel this way. I couldn’t even cry.”
Captain Charles’ eyes burned.
An expression like a deceased person who discovered a newbie.
Or, it was like the expression on the face of discovering a kin that had never been found before.
“no. I got a feel for it, but I can’t write it.”
“why? Hone your senses a little more there. If you match the AI’s pace and sum, you can use it in real life… … .”
Stop talking, Captain Charles shut his mouth.
I opened my eyes wide and said, ‘Right… … ‘, she mumbles.
You seem to have noticed.
“yes. I can’t deal with AI.”
I am a non-conformist who cannot use AI.
“… … It did. I forgot.”
By-tenorism is magic that manifests itself through thought.
And no matter how brilliant a person is, they cannot calculate and control the movement of each electron.
This is not the realm of thinking.
Calculating these things is entirely in the realm of AI.
That’s why I can’t use Charles’ magic.
“sorry.”
“no. No need to apologize. You mean I’m good enough to forget that I’m a nonconformist?”
“… … right. Honestly, anyone would look at you and think you’re a non-conformist.”
Captain Charles replied with a bitter smile.
“Sorry… … . It must have been a great help if I just learned it.”
“yes. I’m sorry too.”
As Charles said, if you raise your senses a little more, it will be possible to hit electrons with a pinpoint.
But that’s it.
Without AI, it is absolutely impossible to use it in real combat.
“Sorry, but I have to give up.”
It is said that nothing is impossible for the By-tenor style, but this is physically impossible.
After all, it should be said that it is a synthesis of future magic. There are definitely things that are better than the bi-tenor style.
I thought so.
‘Still, I learned something good. You can use magic this way too… … .’
The benefits of controlling something invisible but definitely present.
It feels like something has expanded further.
Should I say that I have gained a new realization?
I feel like my head is clear.
“… … uh?”
At that moment, something flashed.
“why? What?”
“Control the invisible… … ?”
“… … ? Why?”
“What you don’t see… … .”
My head spins like a top.
Charles’ words were erased in an instant.
The only thing that fills my head right now is the twinkle of the flashing moment.
‘The peculiarity of the Ring of Awakening. Couldn’t the incomprehensible structure be because I tried to understand mana as mana?’
Air is made up of numerous components.
Its components are also composed of numerous atoms and electrons.
Doesn’t that mean that mana is also made up of numerous ingredients?
‘The special ingredients that make up mana.’
It has never been discovered or observed so far, but isn’t there something more important than mana contained in mana?
‘The source that allows mana to exist only as mana. Origin.’
Isn’t that what the mana of the source is needed to weave the ring of awakening?
‘that’s right. This is it.’
my heart beat fast
With just that realization, everything that had been incomprehensible until now began to be understood sequentially.
By analogy, should I say that it feels like the concept of ‘four arithmetic operations’, which was forcibly extracted from the brain of a mathematician who has already mastered everything in mathematics, was put back into it.
The basics that were lacking were met, and it felt like everything was resolved.
‘Then, what is needed to weave the ring of awakening… … .’
It was when I was organizing my thoughts so quickly.
Kang!
Miho cried a little.
“Is it Miho? found something… … .”
There was no time to ask Miho why.
Flash-!
The bright light that burst out at once covered the entire entrance of Mt. Baekdu.
Chapter 198
Guided by Miho, we started wandering in search of Laplace.
“You know him well, right? Why is it so crazy going here and there?”
I’m not looking for it, I’m literally ‘wandering’ looking for it.
“It’s because the mana density inside Mt. Baekdu is so high that it has become a maze-like structure. If you look at it roughly, it looks like it went here and there. They are all going the right way.”

It seems that distrust of Miho is growing in real time.
“It’s not that I don’t believe in his abilities. Considering the characteristics of Mt. Baekdu, it is good to change the location.”
No, I don’t think so.
There may have been a history of detecting shadows before. Trust still seems strong.
“hmm. no. It just seems right to leave it as it is.”
Miho’s expression is still confident. Not even a hint of doubt can be found.
Miho is clearly chasing Laplace.
Doing anything more here is just a hindrance.
‘Miho must be here because she has an idea.’
No matter what, only Miho can find Laplace.
It’s okay to let Miho do whatever he wants, whether he’s doing something stupid or something.
“… … okay. You must have your own thoughts.”
Captain Charles sighed deeply. He respected my words, but his expression was frustrating.
“Because it’s the beginning, you can’t even see monster-like monsters. I’m bored. haaam.”
Drowsiness seemed to come after hours of meaningless walking.
He yawns loudly while holding his pod behind his neck.

“Did you promise earlier?”

“… … The secret to blocking Thunderbird’s thunderbolt. Do you want me to pass it on?”
“ah. right.”
And then I saw it.
Induction of electrons by telekinesis.
I asked you to tell me the secret.
I completely forgot.
“You forgot it? it’s okay. don’t teach me ah. hurt self-esteem. Are you ignoring my magic like this?”
Captain Charles pursed his lips slightly and muttered.
He seems to think that his magic has been ignored.
“sorry. It’s just that I’m not in a good mood, and I had no intention of ignoring it.”
“it’s okay. I’m already pissed off.”
I tried my best to ease Captain Charles’ mood.
No, isn’t it hard?
“How can I ignore that great magic? It’s the greatest magic I’ve ever seen.”
greatest magic.
With those words, Charles’ body trembled.
“… … really? Do you think my magic is the greatest?”
“yes. Sure. I think it’s the best magic that exists in this era.”
It was sincere.
Magic that exists in this era.
That’s why, it’s probably the best among magic other than bi-tenor.
