Magi's Grandson Chapter 107.1

Published at 9th of February 2022 03:27:48 PM

Having been forced by Strom to half-heartedly agree to participate in a game where the fate of the world was at stake, we left a few soldiers from each country on guard and sent the rest back to their countries by gate.

Since we had surrounded the area including the old imperial capital with a huge wall, and since Strom seemed to be enjoying this situation, we decided that he would not break through the wall and attack us.

After sending the soldiers back to the country, we returned to the royal capital of Earlshide with Garan and the commanders of the various countries.

Before the summit meeting, we wanted to have a discussion with the commanders who were at the scene.

Even though it’s a meeting, it’s probably about how to increase the strength of the force during the designated deadline of one month. ……

Is there anything that can be done in such a short period of time?

The situation was so desperate that the expressions of everyone walking along the corridors of the royal castle towards the conference room were all dark.

I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out how to get the best out of this. …… If this happens, I don’t care how everyone looks at me, I’m going to give it my all. ……

“I’m sorry, Shin.”

As I was thinking about my last resort in this helpless situation, Aug suddenly apologized to me.

“What are you apologizing for?”

“For taking the first ride in the carriage you built.”

Oh, you mean that.

It was a serious emergency, and I wasn’t going to argue with him about it.

“Don’t apologize for that. It was an emergency. Yeah, but ……”

“What’s ……? Is there something bothering you?”

He apologized to me, but I’m not so narrow-minded as to say that in an emergency.

But there’s one thing I regret.

“It’s a shame that I didn’t get to see the look of amazement on everyone’s faces when they got on that carriage for the first time.”

When I said that, Aug gave me a blank stare.

“I’m sorry I didn’t get to see the amazement on everyone’s faces the first time they rode in that carriage”. …… Oh, I was amazed enough. …… What’s with that carriage? I’ve heard that it doesn’t shake and that it’s fast. ……”

“The temperature was comfortable and there was even a refrigerator.

“And the interior was bright!

I taught Aug about suspension and power assist, but other than that, I just made it up as I went along.

Thor noticed the air conditioner and refrigerator, while Alice noticed the lights.

“How many magic stones are you using in that carriage?

“Let’s see, …… how many?”

“I can’t even imagine how much it would fetch if I was to put it on the …… market.”

I’m not sure how much it would go for if I were to sell it.

“Don’t worry, I won’t sell it.”

“Of course not! We’re not selling the suspensions and bearings because we don’t want to take work away from the existing carriage builders, and I don’t know how many of them would go bankrupt if we sold them!”

“No, that’s why you put them on your carriage.”

“No, that’s why you put it on your own carriage. …… You’re the only one who has …… lights, a refrigerator, and temperature control right?”

I put it on my own carriage because I couldn’t afford to lose my job, but Aug was angry with me.

Why?

And then he checked to see if there was anything else I was granting him but …….

“…… Oh, by the way, …….”

“What? What did you add?

I remembered a lot of things, and I remembered that I had added something that should be the centerpiece of this project.

I’m not sure what to make of it.

“Floating Magi……!”

“Oh……!”

“We’re here, you two.”

I was going to tell them about the levitation magic that could be used to escape when my carriage got stuck in a rut, but Aug interrupted me with a bite.

But we had just reached the conference room when Thor stopped me.

“I had no choice but to go to ……. Shin, we’re going to have to sit down and talk about this later, okay?”

“What? It’s an emergency, okay?

“Are you sure? I’ll be sure to check back later.

I’m sure he was more interested in reporting and discussing it than pursuing it right now, but I’ll be sure to check back later, he said, getting a scary look from Aug.

That’s why I said it was for emergency evacuation.

For now, you can go to …….

The soldier standing in front of the conference room called out to the people inside, and when they agreed, he opened the door.

The people inside were Uncle Dis, Director of Military Affairs Dominic, and the head of the Magic Division Rupert.

“Augusto, you’re back. I’ve already received a report on the situation from my correspondent, but …… it’s a big deal, isn’t it?

“Yes, sir. A month later, we will be forced to participate in a game where our mutual survival is at stake. I’m sorry we couldn’t avoid this situation.”

It seems that Uncle Dis had already been informed before we even had a chance to report it.

I’ve been using it for a while now, so I guess Earlshide is getting used to using it.

When Uncle Dis informed him that he had already received a report, he apologized for not being able to prevent this situation.

“No need to apologize, I heard it was a one-sided story from Strohm. It’s more about what to do about this situation. ……”

Uncle Dis, who had accepted Aug’s apology, was puzzling over what to do about the situation.

I’m not sure what to make of it.

We can handle the demons, but we can’t leave the disaster-grade demons behind.

However, the soldiers of each country, including Earlshide, are not enough to deal with the swarms of disaster-grade demons. ……

“This time, the army of Earlshide was almost annihilated by dozens of disaster-grade demons. When the scale is dozens of times larger than that, …….”

“…… I can only feel despair. ……”

When Aug pointed out that even on this scale, they were almost wiped out, Uncle Dis said the word “despair” and held his head.

At the words of despair from the king of the great nation of Earlshide, the commanders of the various nations in attendance remained gravely silent.

The air in the conference room was heavy with a sense of helplessness.

Just as I was about to say that I would do everything in my power to deal with such a desperate situation, someone opened his mouth.

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. May I?”

“What is it? Dominic.”

It was Dominic, the Director of Military Affairs.

“Yes, sir. I’m not sure what to say, but I’m not going to say that I’m a knight. So I have a request for you, Mr. Wolford. ……”

“Me?”

The director of military affairs asked me for a favor? I don’t know.

“I’m not sure if you’ve heard of it or not. I’ve been refusing to rely on the power of magic tools any longer, as it would be against my pride as a knight. ……”
