Vol 3 Chapter 61
Condom enchantment
We are now at the Royal Palace to report on the production conditions of manastones, which I figured out earlier.
Truly that there was such a condition for the creation of manastones(Dis)
Certainly, manastones are excavated from mines near a volcano, or near a big fault line. I didnt notice at all(Rupert)
s.h.i.+n, how did you notice something like that?(August)
Uncle Dis, Rupert, the magic division commander, and Gus have gathered in the conference room of the Royal Palace. (Original text*: w.a.n.g Castle. Kaelpie: Kinky.)
The magic division commander Loupe is in this place because he is the absolute authority on magical matters. It seems that manastone management is also a job of the magic division.
By the way today I am wearing formal clothes I changed into at the guard station.
As one would be expected to wear in front of the king, right?
Grandpa, Grandma and me makes three people as guests.
Sicily and Maria are playing with May and Elly in Gus room.
Speaking of which there is something I have to ask.(Melinda)
Melinda-sensei has a scary face Im afraid to hear it.(August)
The conditions for manufacturing manastones are discovered, so why is s.h.i.+n required to talk about it?(The Spanish Inquisition) (Kaelpie: Seriously Melinda Chill)
Its really scary(Dis)
The faces of Gus and Dis stiffen.
Only Leon-san has a puzzled look.
Your Majesty, why are you making such a nervous face? Isnt this a discovery of the century?(Rupert)
Is that so Rupert are you not aware of s.h.i.+ns senselessness?(Dis)
When it comes to s.h.i.+ns insanity, the magic you saw the guard station is just the beginning There is a possibility of outrageous rumours sprouting from this.(August)
What did you say!? Just the beginning?!(Rupert)
Rupert-san started to be tense.
Disregarding the now nervous Rupert-san, Grandma started her report.
It all started when s.h.i.+n got a manastone from the academy. Prior to that, s.h.i.+n of unaware of the existence of manastones, so he got interested in them(Melinda)
s.h.i.+n got interested(Dis)
Father?(August)
Uncle suddenly got naughty, so Gus spoke up.
Did you ever hear about s.h.i.+n when he was little?(Melinda)
Yes, at Claudes mansion.(Dis)
Once hes interested in something he wont stop until hes fully understood it(August)
And this time was no different.(Melinda)
Thats right Melinda-sensei was serious.(Dis)
Wait a minute, that should go without saying.(Merlin)
Uncle Dis agreed with Grandma while Grandpa chimed in to complained.
Certianly I agree, but I realized something.
Merlin doesnt know much about manastones or magic tools. I remember him screaming: Magic is only magic if you release it yourself!(Melinda)
Grandpa(s.h.i.+n)
Did the Magi really say something like that?(Rupert)
Bring it on G.o.d! Was something you would likely hear from him way back then He was quite something in the past
Ho ho Please continue the discussion(Merlin)
Oh, the story got derailed.
Its my own fault. As soon as I heard about manastones and how they were almost never found on the surface,
I immediately thought: What can I do with it? How do I get it? Where can I get it? How can I make it?(s.h.i.+n)
And?(Dis)
It seemed weird to me that manastones are found only by chance, so I figured there must be conditions for their creation.(s.h.i.+n)
But With that alone?(Rupert)
Its enough for s.h.i.+n to indulge in thought as long as conditions are met. So? Did you make a hypothesis?(Dis)
As expected, he knew me since I was a child, and can read my behavior pattern.
Yes, it was still a hypothesis at that point, that is before we came to report this(Melinda)
My Grandma made a pause and Uncle Dis held his breath.
He tested out that hypothesis.(Melinda)
Tested it?(Rupert)
No?!(D,A)
Uncle Dis and Gus understood immediately while Rupert-san wasnt quite able to follow.
Yes I tested out that hypothesis And made a magic stone.(s.h.i.+n)
You created a magic stone!?(Rupert)
Of course(D,A)
Why are Your Majesty and Your Highness convinced!? You says he made artificial manastones!(Rupert) (TN: Majesty for Dis, Highness for August,)
The confused Rupert-san is asking the two who are strangely persuaded.
The two of them finally look up.
Because its s.h.i.+n/you(D,A) (Kaelpie: No DNA test required. They sync so nicely.)
And said that as one.
But for such a reason?(Rupert)
One would say if he doesnt know s.h.i.+n(August)
s.h.i.+n Walford is a man who does such senseless things so calmly.(Dis)
Even so(Rupert)
Because it is a fact that he can do it, you should give it up(Melinda)
Yes!(Rupert)
Rupert-san, who is the head of the magic division, got silent with a single word from Grandma.
Even the top magician of this country cant go against Grandma
I made a hypothesis, experimented with it, proved it was correct, and as a result I discovered that these are the conditions for producing manastones.(s.h.i.+n)
From the discovery of the conditions for producing magic stones Producing actual proof of it is surprising.(Rupert)
Even if you say that you should take care as much as you-(Dis)
No Of course I wont distribute artificially created manastones, but this is absolutely necessary.(s.h.i.+n)
Is that so?(Dis)
It is.(s.h.i.+n)
Its absolutely necessary for the creation of a wireless communication device.
Even though there are other things I considered.
Well anyways,the details of manastone creation conditions cannot be disclosed After investigating several places, we will announce that There is a high rate of manastones excavated from deep in the ground near volcanoes or fault lines. Based on the actual excavation so far, the magic division investigated and proved what s.h.i.+n-san discovered.(Dis)
Eh? Youre going to mention my name?(s.h.i.+n)
Wasnt it s.h.i.+n who actually discovered it? The name of Magic King has already become famous, so even if your achievements increase, nothing will change too much.(Dis)
But its Uncle Dis fault its famous!
Besides, if its pursued who is discovering that thing It cant be said that you artificially created a manastone, because the discoverer s.h.i.+n will probably be targeted But the idea of them actually hurting you feels like a pipe dream.(Dis)
Rupert, even though you will be busy with the demon suppression, I would like for you to investigate the manastone. If possible, I would also like ask you to excavate a place that meets the conditions just before the mine.(August)
There are some people in the magical division that arent suitable for battle, we will hire people and Make those people oversee the investigation.(Rupert)
Umu, if this is confirmed, this country No, it is a major discovery will shake this world.(Dis)
What?(s.h.i.+n)
Oh, and not a word to anyone that s.h.i.+n can make manastones.(Dis)
Although I dont think anyone would believe it I will obey.(Rupert)
My sisters-in-law also said that they were busy with the demon suppression, but it seems that I just increased their workload, which is bad.
(Kaelpie: We will return after these messages!)
This may change the circ.u.mstances of the magic tools in the world.(Rupert)
Recently, it feels like the production of magic tools has ceased, although that may change again thanks to s.h.i.+ns magic tools.(Melinda)
Thats right! s.h.i.+n!(August)
What?(s.h.i.+n)
The toilet we saw at s.h.i.+ns house! Can you add it to the restroom of the castle?(August)
Why now after so long?(s.h.i.+n)
May was talked about it to mother.(August)
Because of that Julia is envious now I will pay for it, Is it alright?(Dis)
In that case you should ask the trading company that just started.(Melinda)
Perhaps! Do you sell that toilet!?(Dis)
Oh, wont the company gain prestige if the first customer is the royal family?(Merlin)
Understood, Id like to place an order with that company.(Dis)
Nevertheless the communication device is still sold only between governments, right? So the first item sold to the general public will be the toilet(s.h.i.+n) (Kaelpie: 100 bucks says that was his first invention too.)
What a questionable product lineup
What are you saying, s.h.i.+n! Dont you understand the wonder of that toilet!(August)
I completelyagree.Theimpact of using that toilet for the first time Its the most impressive magic tool you ever made.(Melinda)
The restrooms without it have become unusable(Merlin)
I also agree. When I imagine that it will be set up in the restroom of the Royal Palace I feel happy.(Dis)
Is it that amazing?(Rupert)
Oh, do you not know Rupert? Well, its going to be sold to the public so you should try it yourself.(Dis)
If your Majesty holds it in such high regard, I would like to purchase it by all means. Im looking forward to it.(Rupert)
Excitement about the bathroom began to rise.
Well its a product, so isnt it good that the people in this world to accept it?
Will you be selling anything else?(Dis)
Afterwards A refrigerator.(Melinda)
Refrigerator?(Dis)
The refrigerator itself is just a box, but there is a magic tool for making ice inside. You put water in it, and the magic tool will create ice, so its cold air cools down the inside of the box.(Melinda)
Drinking ale that was cooled down in this after your bath Its irresistible(Merlin)
Uncle Dis and Rupert-san gulped.
I knew about the refrigerator but cold ale after the bath?(Dis)
Just imagining it makes me thirsty.(Rupert)
Ho ho, theyre all expected to sell, so we suggest you buy one now.(Merlin)
Somehow it became like a presentation of new products by Grandpa and Grandma.
I was told the stores will be completed soon, so should we start promoting products from now on?
(Kaelpie: We now return to the regularly scheduled program.)
Father Youve gone off topic(August)
Oh? So I was. But thats because s.h.i.+ns magic tools are groundbreaking ideas. I just got interested in them.(Dis)
Magic is amazing, but even so Walfords magic tools are something else.(Rupert)
It feels like Im cheating when it comes to magic tools, so its a complicated feeling when Im praised.
That said I would have never thought he would uncover a world mystery(Merlin)
Even after all this time, Im afraid of whats in s.h.i.+ns head.(Melinda)
Is that so? Maybe its because he wasnt taught common sense?(Dis)
Lets pretend thats true.
Even if I say that its from the memories of my previous life, they probably wouldnt believe it.
Well now, is this the end of the report?(Dis)
Thats it.(Melinda)
You could say thats it for now.(s.h.i.+n)
I see. We will also contact the Inst.i.tute of Magic and Science in each country and launch Ruperts investigation globally.(Dis)
Certainly!(Rupert)
Inst.i.tute of Magic and Science has headquarters in many countries around the world and they seem to share information when there is a magic discovery.
Rupert-san went out of the conference room to investigate manastones and to contact the Inst.i.tute.
Well then with this Shall we immediately go to Merlins home and try out ale after the bath?(Dis)
Ara, what about official business?(Melinda)
Im already done with it, so come on!(Dis)
Haa, theres no helping you Ill entrust you to Merlin-sama.(Melinda)
Ho Ho, what a rough old woman(Merlin)
Did you say something!?(Melinda)
No Well then s.h.i.+n, well go back first.(Merlin)
Okay, then I will pick up Sicily.(s.h.i.+n)
Mhm.(Merlin)
Thus the grandparents went home earlier, and we headed to Gus room.
Oh! s.h.i.+n-oniichan! Its been a while!(May)
Oomph, its been a while. Youre energetic as usual, May-chan(s.h.i.+n)
This is great!(May)
I opened the door of the Gus room, and caught May, who jumped at me as soon as I entered the room.
Its been a while, s.h.i.+n-san.(Elly)
Elly, its been a while.(s.h.i.+n)
By the way, Augusto appears strange Did something happen?(Elly) (Kaelpie: between you two? ( ))
Elly said that after she looked at Gus silently for a while.
Certainly, its unusual for him not to scold May when she jumps in like that.
No Its just that a slightly shocking thing happened, and I havent been able to process it yet.(August)
Shocking thing?(Elly)
Err the report was(August)
What was it?(Elly)
s.h.i.+n(August)
s.h.i.+n-san?(Elly)
Solved the mystery of manastone creation.(August)
Huh? There is no response
Huh!?(M,E)
Not only Elly, but May is also surprised.
Its common knowledge even for such a small child
The creation of manastones! Thats a world mystery!(Elly)
I know about it as well! Its a question that the researchers of the world try to answer, but its so super difficult no one cal solve it!(May)
And s.h.i.+n, who only found out about the existence of manastones today, solved it.(August)
First heard about it today!? How can you solve a world mystery!?(Elly)
Because its s.h.i.+n?(Sicily)
Ah Thats right.(Elly)
Why are you convinced from that?(s.h.i.+n)
Errr?(Maria)
Because its s.h.i.+n-san(Elly)
Why dont you understand? Maria and Elly tilt their heads as if to say that.
I dont understand!
The next day after Mary and Elly gave me an evaluation I didnt understand, I was at the Bean Smithy.
Oh, whats up s.h.i.+n? Did you think up something again?(Marks daddy)
Its to ask you to make a wireless communication device.
Even if sales are done at a launching business, its absolutely necessary to have a studio for development and production.
I want to ask the Bean smithy for development and production orders.
I know they do orders for the kingdoms formal equipment, and I know that they are pretty busy But I dont know anyone else that is better or more trustworthy.
I apologised for that.
What are you talking about? Having a prosperous business is never a bad thing. More than anything, any ideas you bring are fascinating, and any artisan would be itching to try them out!(M-daddy)
He said that while laughing a Gahaha..
Im so grateful. What can I say? I think Im blessed with the people I meet.
However they often bring trouble too
Speaking of which, I didnt hear any rumors about devil lately.
Have they given up because we stopped their raids twice? Or are they planning something?
I dont think they will simply give up so easily, so its better to consider this downtime as a preparation period for the next raid.
For that purpose, the wireless communication device must be put into practical use.
Didnt you already make a communication machine?(M-daddy)
Oh, that was a not that good Long distance communication is difficult to implement(s.h.i.+n)
Marks father is getting emotional, but I switch to the main subject.
I was thinking of creating a wireless version.(s.h.i.+n)
Mugh!(M-daddy)
Oops, Marks dad stiffened.
Since the current communication device a wire, the place you can communicate to and from is fixed, so if I make it wireless, you can carry the communication device with you. I want to create that.(s.h.i.+n)
So thats why youve come here Have you already planned it out?(M-daddy)
Yes, as for the plan(s.h.i.+n)
A communication device will be marked with a unique number..
The sending side can talk with the communication device by specifying the unique number and transmitting it.
Also common numbers will also be added. This will enable simultaneous transmission.
It will constantly run thanks to manastones.
No matter what Id like to ask for it to be able to specify a number, because it will transmit by specifying a number.(s.h.i.+n)
Will you use a manastone? Doesnt that make it terribly expensive?(M-daddy)
The manastones arent a problem. Its still being investigated, but there is a possibility we can find a place where we can extract manastones.(s.h.i.+n)
What was that!? Has the secret of manastone creation been uncovered!?(M-daddy)
All sound in the smithy ceased because of that shout from Marks father.
No, no! Its not like that! I just noticed some correlations between the places manastones have been excavated so far For now its only under investigation.(s.h.i.+n)
Even so, its an amazing discovery! s.h.i.+n, you really are something, arent you?(M-daddy)
Well(s.h.i.+n)
Then Marks father patted my back with a loud BANG BANG.
It hurts! Why do muscular people like to hit backs so hard?
This is a huge thing, s.h.i.+n! If the number of manastones increase, their prices will drop, and that will enable more research and development. Isnt this a moment when history changes?(M-daddy)
Expectations of easily accessible manastones start rising in the smithy.
As expected of craftsmen. I guess its unavoidable they would want to try various things.
First of all, the communication device, please.(s.h.i.+n)
Oh, right! Leave it to us!(M-daddy)
There is one more thing Id like to request(s.h.i.+n)
What? Is there is still something?(M-daddy)
Yes, I think it will be easy to make quickly.(s.h.i.+n)
Saying that, I made another order, which was really easy, so we made it on the spot, and I went home.
* * *
s.h.i.+n, welcome home.(Sicily)
Welcome home.(Servants)
When I returned home, the servants welcomed me with Sicily at the helm.
Shes fit in perfectly.
Im home. Sicily, there is no sense of discomfort in you anymore, it seems like you are getting along well.(s.h.i.+n)
Yes! Because everyone is so kind.(Sicily)
Naturaly. The young lady doesnt merely cling to her man, but has a reputation as a saint that saves the world and supports s.h.i.+n-sama. I can recieve such a woman in the Walford house, because I respect you as a woman. It is an honour.(Marika)(TN: Head maid)
Maria, and especially the maids, nod to Marika s words.
Im glad that Sicily is so highly evaluated by other women.
I will support the young lady with my full power, so please relax s.h.i.+n-sama.(Marika)
Everyone Thank you so much! I will do my best!(Sicily)
Yes, the young lady should do her best to provide a successor!(Marika) (Kaelpie: Walked right into that one.)
!(Sicily)
You misunderstood!(s.h.i.+n)
I head to the living room with a deep red Sicily.
Grandma was waiting for me there while laughing.
Ah ha ha! It sounds to me like she adapted to living in this house completely.(Melinda)
ah thats not! Its still too early, thank you very much!(s.h.i.+n)
But postpone having a child until the devil disturbance is over, because Sicily is a nice war potential too.(Melinda) (Kaelpie: Does that mean you will finally f.u.c.k off after they kill the devils?)
Children Even if(Sicily)
Enough Grandma! Stop teasing Sicily already!(s.h.i.+n)
I will not joke about such a something like that. This is a very serious issue. Sicily will be a big fighting force in the fight against demons. Her pregnancy would be a huge hit to your war potential.(Melinda)
Well, thats true(s.h.i.+n)
Now then, where have you been?(Melinda)
Oh, I went to the Bean smithy for an order.(s.h.i.+n)
Order?(Melinda)
This.(s.h.i.+n)
Saying that, I take out what I made at the smithy.
I already applied the enchantment as soon as it was done.
Sicily.(s.h.i.+n)
*** You are reading on / ***
Yes!(Sicily)
