91 After Days: Annisphere'S Birthday 04
"This is what I\'m supposed to do, I\'m sure."
I think that\'s what I should do when I\'ve created magic in the world and given it a cut of change.
I reached the Ministry of the Spirit within the context of renewing such thoughts. A standing unchanged since the time of the Ministry of Magic. Is it the liveliness of people and the signs that put it up that have changed?
That\'s also due to the changes I urged. Slap him on the cheek as you have decided, then step into the entrance.
"I have been waiting for you, Your Royal Highness the King of Anisphere"
"Good day, Lang"
Lang was there so that he could wait when he entered the entrance. Speaking out to Lang, who greets him with a thank you, Lang leads me into one room, not saying he doesn\'t need to talk in vain.
That was similar to the lecture room at the school where I said in my previous life. At the bottom are faculty desks and blackboards on the back, and each desk and chair arranged in bowl-shaped steps. There were already facades of the Ministry of the Spirit so that they could wait.
They who were sitting confirmed that I had entered the room and immediately rose up to give a deep thank you. I\'m a little scared of the undisturbed movement and realize it.
"They are the people who make my thoughts the same as mine and take the lead on this plan. Compared to those who have been pulled out by the Ministry of Magic and Science, we are still unable to determine our attitude towards magic, but I hope that His Royal Highness Sister Wang will behave freely because there is nothing to deny."
"Thank you very much..."
I\'m a little unfamiliar with Lang being awed without disgust. Until a while ago, he was a disgusting, disgusting guy.
While I\'m thinking about it, Lang moves to the blank seat at the beginning. I also switch consciousness and go up to the lecture.
"Good mood, ladies and gentlemen.... Oh my God, let\'s skip the hard greeting, it\'s not His Royal Highness Sister Wang who\'s here, he\'s going to be a leader in magic. At Lang\'s request today, I\'m here to give you a course in magic. Before I start the course, I\'d like to change the purpose of this course."
Separate words there once. No one feels a sight like evil feelings for me. Finished confirming I cough up one and then go on with the words.
"Even when it comes to magic, I think its major purpose is to explore. If there is a mystery, figure this out, know the law, learn and be your own. I have come to orient this attitude of magic towards my quest for magic. In the process, an invention called Demonic Props was born. I know a lot about misunderstandings and suspicions, but if you stick with magic, you\'ll get to the first philosophy I said."
Look over everyone here again. I breathe again so that I can breathe, and I keep on saying words so that I can fold even more.
"The way this magic philosophy and posture is also about asking about the way faith is. I know very well that you take this as disgraceful and disrespectful. But in my opinion the world is constantly changing. People change, the world changes. Generation change can be an example of this. Whether it is an invisible change or a visible change, the same thing does not always exist. I think that\'s why I\'m expected to embrace change for something I shouldn\'t change. For that reason, I hope that we can make this time a time for meaningful discussion, for the sake of what we must not change with everyone again."
I guess that\'s all I\'m trying to say. I look at the reactions of the people taking lectures there.
The result, for better or worse? I know you\'re listening focused, but I don\'t like it or dislike it. I\'m not unresponsive, but I can\'t breathe. I guess the Spirit Ministry air isn\'t compatible with me!
"Now let\'s get to the point. This time, thanks to you, the Spirit Ministry will lead my Birthday Festival, trying to improve the relationship and at the same time hustle and bust the role of the Spirit Ministry. Uffi is happy to welcome this proposal. I take it personally, albeit with mixed feelings, favourably. But I think everyone understands that we can\'t do it at a traditional festival."
"... may I make a statement? Her Royal Highness the King of Anisphere."
Speaking with his hands up was a man who would be an elderly man among the faces gathered here. I guess he\'s only just in his thirties. The man comes to me with a straight gaze.
I take a challenging, straight gaze at you, too. You shouldn\'t be cowering here.
"Allow me to speak. What is it?
"To confirm, Her Majesty still wants to operate the Spirit Stone intensively in the development of the Demonic Prop. May I assume that you set your mind as such?
"... I can\'t say no to that. But Yuffi doesn\'t want the Spirit Ministry to become a poor minister."
"Yes, that\'s why Lang tells me it would be a good idea to invent magic props for festivals. But...... we, who have a poor understanding of magic, understand that magic props are things that make people who cannot use magic as magic also operate pseudo. How do you suppose it\'s for a festival?
I guess that\'s a question everyone in the place here has. My gaze is once again focused on me, waiting for that answer.
I honestly thought that question might come. So I was able to respond immediately without staring.
"Yeah. Especially that question. So what we offer to the Ministry of the Spirit is neither the magic props themselves, nor the inventions proposed."
"... and say?
"There is only one thing I have decided that I should lecture the Spirit Ministry. It is true that we will eventually create the same method as the magic props, but I think that the method itself can break this case. That\'s how spiritual stones are processed"
"Processing method, is it?
"Only spiritual stones required for festivals are consumed in large quantities to symbolize authority and to give thanks to the Spirit. But every time a spiritual stone is consumed, it affects the manufacture of magic props. So I\'m going to make a piece of history, and I don\'t know what to do with it. Who\'s going to inherit that in the spiritual ministry?
Lang told me to use the magic prop for the ritual, and I thought about it until I gave my lecture today. An important part of the spiritual faith is to show authority and the place of faith on the basis. Until now, I have measured it with the amount of spiritual stone used. I think I can say.
But the only problem with that is that if I did that every time, my consumption would just keep increasing. So what about creating a point commensurate with a single huge consumption and inheriting this? That.
"So I said ritual magic props, not made for the purpose of using clear magic, but a symbol of a single thing I created using the means of creating the magic props I found. Even if I think of this as an initial investment, I thought that I might be able to curb future consumption of spiritual stones..."
What do you say? I peek around and see the reaction, but... unresponsive.
... Hey Lang! What\'s unresponsive to you! My stomach\'s gonna hurt!
"But the problem is, I don\'t have anything that comes to mind as a symbol of authority in its history for a long time, and I\'d like to ask everyone for that proposal..."
... I\'m unresponsive. Hey, I think I\'m about to cry?
Then Lang hit his hand once. Everyone turns their gaze to Lang.
"Thank you, Sister King Anisphere, for an interesting lecture. From here, it will be time to bring your own ideas and further refine them. Can I think of something like that?
"Huh? Oh, yeah. Well... I didn\'t abandon the Spirit Faith, but I\'m not sure when people ask me if I\'m faithful. Is that why we should all come up with an actual plan?
"As far as it goes. If so, it was also something that had a slight impact on us. For once, I think we should take a break and then move on to the next agenda, what do you say?
"... it would be helpful if you could do that"
Just a little bit of air in the boulder. Even the people in the Spirit Ministry may be desperate to swallow, but I can\'t help but worry about some kind of unresponsiveness that\'s immersed in me.
Nodding at Lang\'s suggestion, Lang led me to a separate room to escort me. There you are a samurai serving in the ministry of spirits, who had already finished preparing tea. A samurai walks away with a quiet bowl of grace.
Me and Lang are the only ones left. The door to the room is open, and there are signs of people, so it\'s not just the two of us. I\'m so restless. Grab a cup of tea so you can get back on your mind.
"... you know. Lang."
"What is it, Your Royal Highness?"
"Today\'s lecture, I wonder how it went. I didn\'t hear from everyone and I didn\'t know how to respond..."
"Mind if I say something frank?
"... please"
Uh, yeah. I guess it wasn\'t very good when Lang was going to preface it like this. It makes me squishy by accident.
But I can\'t even change the direction without asking, so I have to ask.
"I understand. But it\'s still difficult to empathize. It\'s not about reason, it\'s about emotion."
"... what does that mean?
"I\'ll tell you something first, I\'m not talking about the unacceptability of Her Royal Highness the King. This must be my own problem."
"My own?
"I received the Kaoru pottery of magic, and once again I felt… that it was something different from people and not like spirits"
"... yeah?
Uh, I mean, what do you mean? I can\'t really grasp what Lang is trying to say, and I stare at his face.
"Until now the Spirit Faith has come to lean on the Spirit, and it has come as a good. I mean... the only thing that didn\'t change was that we thought it was something we should protect. Because the Spirit doesn\'t change. If you lean on the Spirit, won\'t you ever ask for a change?
"... on reason, I wonder if so"
"King\'s power, noble authority, faith in the Spirit. He said the mission was to inherit it it without changing its shape. Drill for it and put something better up there. That\'s at least what I was thinking. But that\'s how I felt it wasn\'t right for people in that way of life. Because, as you say, the world and people cannot remain the same."
"... yeah. Still, the Spirit does not change the nature of nature. What you see on the surface changes, but the Spirit doesn\'t. So in any way, the Spirit will continue to be our friend. It helps me. Magic or magic props."
I don\'t like theology, and to be honest, it doesn\'t suit my skin. But I don\'t think that\'s why it\'s at odds with magic. Of course, there are places where the opposite doesn\'t match, and I don\'t even think that magic and theology that reveal mystery are the same ideas.
But that\'s on people\'s own. No matter how controversial, the Spirit remains the same. Because the nature of them, which is considered the embodiment of nature, does not change when the world or people change.
"Reason tells me. But I guess it will only take a little while for me to do the same thing for the better. Until I chew through this indescribable emotion."
"... but you still lean on magic."
"If that is the decision of the king upon whom we stand."
"Then I\'ll thank Yufi."
I don\'t think my distance from Lang has diminished either. But I felt like I could talk to nature more than before.
I\'m not gonna tell you how happy I am with that minor change. With that in mind I put my mouth on the tea again.
