66 Episode 62: Leaps And Pitfalls
"Tomasoo! Let's ask!
"... can you come any quieter, Master Anis"
I call Tomas well as I open the Gana Workshop door vigorously. Tomas, who was working in the workshop, stopped his hand and looked at me. Relieved on the same Buddha top surface.
"Tomas! I need a job!
"Work?"
"Yes!"
"What am I supposed to make next?
"Tomas! I want you to come under me as a technical advisor!
"............ what?
After plenty of room, he leaked his voice like Tomas had been taken aback.
I breathe and tell him again with a full grin.
"Technical advisor!
"Wait, what are you talking about?
"Permission came out of the country to mass-produce magic inventions. So I want Tomas to officially hold the position of mentoring and expressing his opinions under me as a technical advisor."
"............ what?
A voice like the second time I was taken aback. Did he start having headaches, put his fist down to slap him on the forehead several times, and then Tomas closed his lid tightly.
"... does that mean state business? You want me to be your technical advisor?
"Tomas is the best contributor to the development of magic. That's why Tomas is good. It's Tomas who understands my philosophy, no matter what major workshop I signed up for. So I can't think of anything but Tomas."
"Are you nuts!? I'm a civilian, this little workshop blacksmith!? You can't possibly act as a technical advisor to me like that!!"
"I'll wear as many as I can for an assistant! If you still say you don't like Tomas, this will be your last solicitation! Tomas, give me your talent!!"
Whether you want to mass produce inventions of magic or develop them, you can't take Tomas off anymore. I don't want to take it off rather.
His strength could be amply demonstrated in the Celestial. In the future, I want Tomas on the stage of the accelerated invention of magic.
I gaze into his eyes to convey such thoughts. Tomas was opening his eyes and looking me in the eye, but soon he would stray from face to face.
"... why am I doing this for the nobles?"
"I don't know what kind of pan Tomas has in his nobility. I don't want to hear from myself anymore. But I really want Tomas' talent. I want you to see the world I see, and I want you to expand it. And it's not just for nobility. The knights who defended this country wanted power from me to protect their country and their people. He said that with inventions of magic, we could make this country better. I want to live up to that thought. That's why I need your help, Tomas."
I don't know what I could do alone. I still remember the feeling of powerlessness that I didn't have the power I wanted. Still, I kept looking forward. I think even the force has followed me. Still, there are many things you can't do alone.
So I hope you can help me. I want you to hold hands and get up on the stage with me. That will one day revolve around and help everyone. I'm sure even Tomas gets something if he's involved in developing demonic props. Because I want it to be, and I want it to be.
For a little while, Tomas, who remained silent, groans as he scratches his head indiscriminately.
"... Seriously, what is it?
"I mean it."
"... chip. I wish I had kicked you out without telling you anything the first time I saw you. Same thing you did back then."
"Bye!
"Give me time! ……… think"
"Okay!... you know, Tomas. Knights also have civilian knights. If I succeed in that, my invention may spread among the people as well. I definitely want to take this chance. Because he wants Tomas to follow the same path."
I lay my own hands on Tomas' hands. Thomas turned his gaze toward me for just a moment, but he immediately turns his back by paying his hand. This is a manifestation of Tomas' will to reject. I don't think any more conversations with him will yield a fruitful response.
Keep looking at Tomas' back and then I turn my back trying to get the workshop behind me. I heard Tomas inquiring on my back like that.
"... Dear Anis, what are you? Are you nuts? Is that just reckless? Are you the Princess of Desolation...?
"What am I? That's what I'm talking about."
We don't look back on each other. I try to whine with my gaze straight.
"The Wizard."
I knew there was no response from Tomas. I kept the door shut in my back and left the Gana workshop behind.
"Raini! I'm home! Sorry for the sudden, but I have business with Baron Cyan, so I'd like to interrupt Baron Cyan's house!
"Welcome back, Master Anisphere. In the meantime, let's stop once because Raini is surprised."
"Ugh!"
With his leg back from the Gana workshop, he went straight to the outhouse, where he tried to jump out with Raini, who picked him up, and Ilia pulled his collar. Yes, my breath......! I thought my throat would crush......!
Raini, who was held by me, is moving into Ilia's hands. Raini looks at me with her eyes properly, and Ilia exhales a frightened sigh, as usual, before asking me.
"So, what happened all of a sudden?
"You said you wanted to invite Baron Cyan to verify the performance of the inventions of magic before, right? I'm going to do you that favor!
"Like I said for sure...... eh now!? let me at least put a newsletter in the house once!? Your father will graduate even if Master Anis suddenly comes!!"
"So is that, okay. Then hurry up as fast as you can! Me, I'm going back to the Knights again! I'll see you later!
That's all I say, I slip through the sides of the two of them and head inside the outhouse. Go inside your workshop and take what you need from one end back to the entrance. And jump out as it is.
He waves to Ilia, who is holding his head with Raini, who remains flat, and runs vigorously towards the royal castle with all his might.
"... what is it? That."
"It's been a long time since you've returned that destructiveness..."
I never heard Raini and Ilia talking like that.
Run, run. Just run as hard as you can. My heart beats and my breath goes up. But even that was comfortable and kicked the ground with momentum.
What arrived was a knight's practice area. I try to jump in towards the knights who were doing the archery there and land.
"Duh!?, Princess Anisphere!? What are you doing!?"
"Oh man! I'm sorry, this! Can you give it to the Knights Commander? Tell him you can let him go. Because this is all we have now!
"This is... what, this is Mana Blade that Master Anisphere used...?
"Yes! That's all I have now, so use it alternately, whether someone wins or not, until I give it to the Knights Commander! Of which, we'll have all the numbers! Oh, I'd be so glad to hear your thoughts on using them in the report if you like!
"Oh, hey!? Princess Anisphere!?"
"'Cause I'm going next! Sorry!"
I asked Tomas to become a technical adviser. I asked Baron Cyan to tell Raini that he wanted to invite me as a demon prop performance tester. Mana Blade came to the Knights for what she could put out in the current inventory.
I will sort out the cases I did with my fingerprints. The next thing you need to do is secure the Spirit Stone. I have some build-up, too, but that's not enough. You can't even buy up the spiritual stones of the market because there are people's lives.
Then can you accommodate the spiritual stones stored in the royal castle? Since that is within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic, the next place to go shall be designated as the Ministry of Magic.
(I guess I'll see how Uffi is at last)
I haven't had a moment to talk to Yufi slowly because I'm moving to spread the word about the magic props. He had a face that didn't seem particularly problematic, but maybe he just didn't say anything because it was about Yufi.
I can't do anything for you to solve the problems of the Ministry of Magic. If there's anything I can do, I'd rather not get my hands on Yuffi's problem unless Yuffi wants it.... I might get a little impatient.
(I hope you're doing well.)
Stop running to the boulder where you came in front of the Ministry of Magic. Even you're in a position to inspire the Ministry of Magic, so you don't have to caress your nerves inadvertently, do you?
When I go straight into the Ministry of Magic building, I gather the gaze of the people who were inside. Hino, I think someone leaked a frightened voice. Who!? Who just reacted with such disrespect!?
Others are looking at me with their voices lurking. This is obviously not welcome. No, I'm not asking you to welcome me because I'm here all of a sudden!? I won't take anything and eat it!?
"Princess Anisphere!
"Hmm?... Oh, Marion!
It was Marion who spoke to me in that. Marion comes to my side on a small run. Then he smiles with a troubled bitterness and flaunts his shoulder.
"... you can often show your face to the Ministry of Magic without an appointment, you are"
"'Cause I was in a hurry? Lord Zildu has a favor to ask..."
"Were you... But don't imitate bad for your heart. But even now, the Ministry of Magic is tingling."
Marion reminds me to pay attention as I dive into my voice and whisper.... Yeah, is that so magic ministry not good air?
When I had my doubts from that thought, Marion looked complicated. I think it says on my face, "Give me a break."
"... I wonder what the fuss is, are you again?
"Oh, Count Voltaire's son?
"... I don't mind Lang. With all due respect, Princess Anisphere. Would you mind behaving a little more as a royal, no, heir to your blood? Because the field will be confused by pranks."
Laughing only at his face, Lang approaching, wrapped around an obviously grumpy aura. It's reprimand jumping out of your mouth. I flatter myself with it.
"I'm sorry about that. I'm just in a hurry, I want to talk to you as soon as I can..."
"Just because you're in a hurry doesn't mean it's okay to lose your respect as a royalty, does it? Why can't you learn something called shame?
... the words that I should have been able to flush usually came to my mind for some reason. Bum, and I think I heard something hang up.
"... you want that from me now? Mostly the Ministry of Magic didn't like me to be king, did it? This is a great opportunity to banish me from the royal family, isn't it? Then you should just say it, right? No magic of disqualifying royalty."
I think the air in the field has cooled off at once. Lang's smile disappeared, and his face was all at once drawn to it.
... Shit. I've been cold on my head since I said that. My spine gets cold at once. I accidentally got blood on my head and my mouth slipped. He's the one I shouldn't totally say. This!
Even Marion is quietly shaking his head left and right. Can't you do any more? Yeah, there's something to tell you, Marion! I don't think it tastes good either!
"Hey...! What do you think, such as being told that?!?"
"... Ah, Princess Anisphere! Please calm down, Lang too!
Marion's breaking in between and trying to contain it, but I'm sorry. I'm a little upset! I'm so sorry! I also shut my mouth on the boulder.
The air is completely chilled out. This is disgusting. It was too fatal a rudeness. Right now, at least it wasn't a good dialogue I said in the Ministry of Magic. Ahhh, what do we do!?
"... What the hell is all this noise?
And the sound of it sounded good.
It was Yufi who threw a stone at the nervous air whilst sounding his shoes. Unexpectedly I pull my cheeks too. Ya suck......!
Yufi's mad! Totally against me!
"No, the, uh..."
"... anise"
I inadvertently stretch my spine. Yufi's eyes are staring at me with jito eyes...
"... If you need help, it will be common sense to ask for an appointment in advance. I don't even know what it's like to stick out, but it's too much of a detour to boulders."
"There are no words..."
"Not to mention, I'm not behaving well enough to bring up another story and bite because they pointed out the nonsense of my behavior"
"Yes......"
"Just because you don't want to be king, don't act like you ever did. You're here for understanding, aren't you? You're here for help, aren't you?
"There's no excuse..."
I really can't say anything back. What Yufi says can only get smaller after all.
Seeing me get smaller, Yuffi sighed deeply.
"I'm going to the Ministry of Magic in the first place, so you don't visit me in person, do you?
"Ugh..."
You're absolutely right, yes. I'm sorry......
I've also been wondering if Uffi is working hard with a little lightness. But I should have waited for Uffi to come back to the outhouse. That was all we talked about, and I made it extra easy.
"Anis."
"Yes, sir"
"... what can I do for you?
"Huh?"
"What can I do for you?
"... I wanted an inventory of spiritual stones to develop magic props, and I was wondering if I could accommodate them from the inventory managed by the Ministry of Magic..."
"Okay. I will tell that to Acting Director Jiltu, and I will move on. So."
Take a little breath, and then Yuffi looks at me like she's staring at me.
"Go home."
... I said that out in a terribly cold voice.
No, I think it's out of line to be shocked, and overall I'm sorry I was a detour. So I nodded one and turned my back.
The feeling that was floating shriveled. I drop my shoulders and exhale. I hold my head back as it is.
Wow! I did it already ~!!
"I want to be a cat..."
"What is it when you suddenly leave and think you're back..."
"I went to the Ministry of Magic and lost my word. And Yufi was furious."
"With all due respect, you're an idiot, aren't you?
Yes, it's stupid.
I accidentally get a headache and push my forehead against Raini's knee. I was depressed by my idiocy additions and subtractions as Raini put a knee pillow on me.
"... I guess he was floating"
"That's it, already"
That's right. There is a deep sigh of relief in Raini's response. It's really too much silence, I don't think that's me on the boulder either. But I stumbled into my mouth.
... I wonder if there was that air too. Scared of me, the air of fear. Maybe he enjoyed it more than I thought.
"... you should have stopped. The Anisphere has changed."
It was Ilia who groaned pompously. If you look at Ilia's face only to the side, there is a profound color of regret.
"... right? Have I changed that much?
"Because I used to give up making others understand there. So you have a sense of change from when it was good, right?
"... I think so."
Maybe that's why I couldn't stand Lang's words. Maybe I couldn't keep my emotions down because I couldn't give up understanding from others.
I've finally felt what I wanted more than I thought I would. There are people waiting for their magic tricks. Wish or fulfill if you can help such people.
Finally I can reach it. Finally, finally.
"... I was in a hurry, me"
I was finally convinced to say it myself. I was in a hurry, so when I got in my way, I exposed my emotions to the point of excess. This is not a good trend.
"... Huh, I should have talked to Yufi..."
"Right."
A hard voice was heard from the entrance. Soon Yufi stood at the entrance. The look is frowning and looking at me.
Face up from Raini's knee pillow and I look straight at Yufi's face. Then I bow my head.
"... sorry, Uffi. I took care of him."
"Absolutely, how much liver Me and Marion have chilled. … be careful already"
Uffi reaches out to me in a deep sigh. After Yuffi's hand touches my cheek, I'm pressed to align my forehead.
"... If you hadn't been angry, I might have been. And yet you may not be convinced to say this."
"Ugh. That's what makes Yuffi annoying. I shouldn't have shown my face to the Ministry of Magic."
"... right. At least now the Ministry of Magic is highly stimulating for Annis to go. I should have talked to you sooner."
Distort your expression so that Uffi, with his forehead off, will regret it.... Huh? Is it such an unsavory situation to have a Ministry of Magic?
"Could it be considerably worse than I think?
"Probably for sure. … and honestly, there are many unexpected places."
Let's talk about the area, and Yuffi cuts out the conversation and we surround the table.
Ilia brews the tea quickly, and when she gets to all of them, Uffi squeezes her expression and speaks out.
"To be clear, the Ministry of Magic now is on the verge of division and could decompose in the air"
"What?"
You're lying, right? That Ministry of Magic?
"The balance of power so far has collapsed with the truth of the Spirit covenant. Until now, it was the faith-heavy who had a strong voice, but when I became a spiritual contractor, my affirmation of magic led to discord within the Ministry of Magic."
"... I can't say anything about that."
Excessive spiritual faith can lead to unwanted tragedies. So with the implication of waiting there, there is also the thought that we spoke the truth of the Spirit covenant.
Therefore, I was thinking that the force diagram within the Ministry of Magic would be rewritten. Anyway, the Ministry of Magic is still in the process of restructuring. So much so that I thought this was the only time to wait.
"But you assumed it was even Ufi there, right?
"Yep. So I was also thinking of measures for that. But it was worse than I assumed... the emotional side."
"Emotional?
"This is the problem before the Ministry of Magic's force map. It was hard to talk to Anis just about it..."
A deep wrinkle is engraved between Yufi's brows. Uffi exhaled as she held her fingers down to rub the wrinkles between her brows.
"Many of the aristocrats in the Ministry of Magic are now frightened of Anise."
"... frightened, to me?
I think they were hostile, but the thing is they're scared of me...?
"There is simply the truth about the spiritual covenant, and fear of the anise that has elucidated it. Some are afraid to resent Anise because they know the truth, but because of it, they distrust the Spirit, to divert their attention from it."
"Resentment to distract... troublesome"
"It's also troublesome… the most troublesome are those who are politically afraid of anise"
"Are you politically afraid?
"It is true that many who belong to the Ministry of Magic, whether they are themselves or not, have treated Annis coldly. So many fear retaliation for it.... I know it's a selfish story."
... Uh, yeah. That's... I don't know how to react.
Uffi is reluctant to talk to me. 'Cause I don't know what to say. Probably the closest I can get to saying that I'm frightened.
"Yeah. Just so we're clear... I don't care"
"I thought I'd say"
I was sighed at by Ilia, who smiled bitterly. Because I really don't care from the bottom of my heart!?
"Retaliation is retaliation for what? Have you been cheating on me? That does come to mind, but politically what...?
"So to wrap up the Ministry of Magic, I can't wrap it up without putting it under my asylum first... it looks like I have anise and I'm not getting credit"
I don't know what to say, I think that's a story that's getting a headache.
Honestly, I can't imagine the feeling. Few people would not be anxious if what they had believed had been lost and their common sense changed.
So I don't think it's bad. But you're too suspicious to talk about it.
"... I wonder if the impact was too great"
"Better than we thought."
Now Uffi is reluctant to talk to me. I think I've been floating around lately because I can spread magic. Maybe he didn't want to water it there. If you noticed there, you might have been able to turn your mind, but you're too unconscious.
No, my unconsciousness or something is good at this point, later. It is also difficult for the Ministry of Magic to decompose in the air as it is.
"But it's a matter of heart..."
"That's right..."
It's hard to solve when that Daiyuan is caused by fear and fear of me. The only way to overcome fear is to make the person forget the fear or get over it. Otherwise, it would be an out-of-the-spot solution.
I can't do that. At least not as a nobleman. That's why I think Uffi's bothering his head too, but it doesn't seem like he can do anything to me...
"... Um, Master Uphilia"
"Raini?"
"Fear is the problem, isn't it? Then... can you let me help you?
Raini, who had listened to us in silence, turned to Uffi with a firm expression of determination.
