Chapter 53 – 53. New knowledge
Back in the room, I relax and sigh.
It loosens the stiff body and relaxes the muscles due to the exertion of strength from the archmage’s disciples.
[thank you for your effort.]
A dark spirit appears secretly, saying that we can finally talk. I glared at him several times telling him to stay still, so he was avoiding the place altogether.
I glanced at her, took off my jacket, and asked.
“Did you see anything when Eleanor fell asleep?”
The dark spirit categorically denies my words.
[Nothing at all. Is there really an evil spirit inside it? The more I look at it, the more it doesn’t seem like it.]
“… … .”
As I close my mouth, the dark spirit slowly approaches me and pretends to take my jacket.
Of course she couldn’t take it, so I ignored it and hung it on the hanger.
The dark spirit asks the opposite question, crossing his arms as if he is in pain.
[how about you? Actually, you are much more expert in this field than I am.]
I know.
That she wouldn’t know.
Still, I had no choice but to ask.
because.
“I also can’t see anything.”
I really don’t feel any energy, let alone evil spirits or monsters. I thought I might see something if I fell asleep, so I suggested the princess get a good night’s sleep.
Still, I couldn’t see anything, so I couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed.
“… … .”
I sat down on the chair and crossed my legs, but soon I wanted to drink coffee or tea, so I got up again.
In the room, simple tools such as tea leaves, coffee beans, a grinder, and a teapot were provided for me.
Normally I would have made tea, but today I felt like I would have to stay up all night, so I started grinding coffee beans.
Grumble, rumble.
As I turn the hand grip, the fragrant scent of coffee fills my nose.
Suddenly, Finden Eye comes to mind.
I told him not to ever touch tea again because it boiled it like pig urine, but he recently got a taste for it, so he kept bringing it to me even if I didn’t tell him.
The problem was that they all tasted bad. To be honest, it was just semi-hot water.
‘You must be doing well by now.’
You will be clearing a fairly difficult dungeon, but it is a combination of Aria and Finden Eye.
The more I think about whether they can be called the best in close combat, the more I trust them.
Yes, I just have to do well here.
Since I am proud as a necromancer, I need to solve this case in order to roam the kingdom.
I finish making my coffee and sit back on the chair in my room. The dark spirit was looking at me, saying he was annoyed.
[You didn’t see anything either, so I guess it’s not about evil spirits? I heard that the saint’s side also failed, so I think the problem is something else rather than a spiritual incident.]
“… … .”
[No, is it true that you are really having a nightmare in the first place? Aren’t you just a psychopath? Are you a paranoid?]
“… … “Is there any way to enter a dream?”
I also thought something was strange, so I wanted to go into the dream myself.
Then the dark spirit replied with a strange expression.
[Is there one? Although it is possible to communicate between souls, it would be impossible to enter a dream. Because I don’t even know what dreams are like in the first place.]
“That’s right.”
As I kept my mouth shut and lost in thought, the dark spirit who was looking at me for a moment looked sad and made a suggestion.
[Let’s run away at dawn.]
“hmm?”
I wondered if she was saying something out of the blue, but she was extremely serious.
[This is not a problem we can solve. It’s not our field to begin with. So run away. Anyway, it’s normal for warlocks to run away.]
“Whoa.”
These are useless words and worries. I drink my coffee, thinking it’s not worth answering.
Perhaps because it was the royal family, the taste and aroma were quite impressive even though it was cooked by an inexperienced person like me.
[I’m saying it shouldn’t be like this?]
As I kept my mouth shut, thinking I would have to explain everything at once, the door opened and two people came in.
They were King Orpheus and the great wizard Rockpelican.
Originally, it would have been right for me to visit him, but now I am practically a prisoner.
Since he was a high-risk group who had defeated the Magic Judge, it seemed like he didn’t want to let them escape from this place, which was almost like a prison.
On the contrary, it didn’t really matter to me because it was comfortable and good.
“Okay, what do you think?”
King Orpheus is asking for my results. There was a faint hope on his face.
Therefore, I answered honestly.
“It’s not about evil spirits. “Just as the saint failed, necromancy could not reveal what the entity in the princess’s dream was.”
“ah… … .”
[Mi, mi, are you crazy?!]
King Orpheus is disappointed and the dark spirit is surprised when he says that. This may be because failure in the ordeal leads to execution again.
I continue speaking without stopping.
“But a solution is possible.”
“Is a solution possible?”

“Hoo.”
[yes?]
The king, the archmage, and the ghost all look at me at the same time. It became easier to explain everything all at once.
“It is impossible to confirm what that existence is, but isn’t ‘dream’ the princess’ problem in the end?”
“yes.”
“All you have to do is get rid of the dream itself.”
It’s not a complete solution.
Although the mystery surrounding the parasitic entity inside the princess would ultimately fall into the labyrinth, it was possible to solve the problem itself.
“Is that possible?”
I calmly opened my mouth to King Orpheus’ question. Calmness makes the other person feel trustworthy.
“Yes, you can. “There are beings in the world who, unlike demonic beasts, are made up of spiritual concepts.”
“Spiritual concepts?”
“Because it is an extremely rare creature, you cannot help but be unaware of it. Anyway, I plan to use it.”
A human bone bug created by Marlks.
The angel created by the girl Setima’s wish fell into this category.
Just as a strong will, like the resentment of an evil spirit, activates mana on behalf of the body.
Even monsters and thought forms become reality through the accumulation of someone’s wishes.
“The monster I will create is called Mac, and it is a monster that eats nightmares.”
As I said before, this unique monster has an elephant’s trunk, a bear’s body, a cow’s tail, and a tiger’s claws.
I have heard that in Japan it is called Baku.
Because King Orpheus was unable to follow the story, the Archmage Rockpelican intervened.
“Are you just going to create something that has a concept on your own? That is the realm of creation. “No matter how magical it is, it’s impossible.”
right.
In fact, what I was trying to do was the area of creation.
In the case of the Human Bone Chest and the Angel of Setima, many people came together to establish the concept, but Mac was a concept that only existed within me.
“The level of difficulty is high, but not impossible. It may take time, but it is possible with the support of the royal family and the help of the Archmage.”
Of course, it had to be a ridiculous attempt. But I have already seen successful cases in the family underground.
This place is equipped with superior wizards, facilities, and wealth.
furthermore.
The biggest source of confidence was that there was even an item with deceptive performance called Remegeton.
“You don’t have to make it perfect. “If you can handle it just once, that’s enough.”
It wasn’t about making a perfect weapon like the human bone bug, but if you were to be honest, it was about making a disposable nightmare-eating monster.
They were two people who felt puzzled about dealing with a concept that was not properly defined.
I answered firmly.
“This is to save the princess of this country who has suffered for many years. doctor? priest? Even I, the saint and the necromancer, failed.”
I look at King Orpheus.
His fists were clenched and he was already determined to save his sister, so I lit the fuse.
“It is such a difficult situation. We need to face the impossible head on.”
* * *
Since yesterday, the plan has been rapidly moving forward.
In accordance with the king’s order that he would do anything to save his sister, I started a dedicated research, ostensibly centered around the Archmage, but in reality, I will lead the research.
To begin with, I was the only one with knowledge and concepts about the monster called Mac.
After changing my clothes and going outside, the great wizard’s disciples were still waiting for me with distressed expressions.
In order to move at any time, you had to have two people on either side of you.
It may be a bit uncomfortable, but it can’t be helped.
As I was walking with that thought in mind, Princess Eleanor suddenly appeared from around the corner.
My students and I immediately greeted her politely as she was a princess, but Eleanor cleared her throat and opened her mouth awkwardly.
“Deius, is this reality?”
“Napoleon Bonaparte. He was a French soldier, but became emperor through a coup on the 18th Brumaire.”
Since it was a character I had prepared, I explained it to her, and Eleanor listened blankly and tilted her head.
“france? Napoleon? “Am I the only one who doesn’t know?”
I shrug my shoulders and ask the students on either side of me, and they too shake their heads because it feels awkward.
“Well, we’re doing well too.”
“This is my first time hearing it.”
“Hmm, that’s interesting.”
The princess nods and passes us with a more at ease expression.
I seemed to think of it as a simple novel created within me.
But even after that, Princess Eleanor continued to come to me out of the blue.
Even at meal times.
“D-Deius? Did I just doze off? W, is this real?”
“There was a website called YouTube that had a lot of videos. “I used to use it often.”
“Yu, what? dong… … “What are you talking about?”
Even while conducting research.
“Deius! “Is this reality now?”
“There is something called the theory of relativity proposed by Albert Einstein. “It is an important theory that explains the basic laws of the universe.”
“… … “I really have no idea.”
When evening comes and I go back to my room.
“Is this real, Deius?”
“… … There is something called a cell phone. “It is an all-purpose object that can take pictures, text, and make calls.”
“Hmm, there is something unusual.”
Eleanor nodded with satisfaction. She tried to turn her body again and go back.
I call her over.
“Princess, do you enjoy simply listening to stories?”
“Huh?!”
Eleanor fussily asks what she’s talking about. She waves her hands around, her face flushed.
“Well, that can’t be possible! “I’m asking because I need to check if it’s really real!”
She said that, but looking at her shy face, I felt like I could understand why she was acting like this.
When you meet me, you can easily recognize that it is reality, so it must have felt like all the stress you had been feeling was naturally relieved.
She kept looking for me, as if she were addicted to that feeling.
“I, I, I’m going!”
Swish!
As I watched her turn around and walk away, I thought that she would suffer quite often.
