　With the breakthrough technology brought by Gran, we are on the verge of making an accurate clock.

　So, let's start building a clock tower.

　Currently, the city of Fontana is surrounded by a wall.

　And in the middle of the land within the wall is a slightly raised hill, on which the castle of the Fontana family stands.

　The castle would be built on this hill, while the large church for Archbishop Paul would be built on the land to be newly expanded.

　A clock tower will be placed on the hill so that it will be visible from the city.

　Then it will be obvious that the most important person in Fontana is not the archbishop, but the person in the castle of the Fontana family.

　However, the present castle cannot be suddenly destroyed and a new one built.

　It is still being used as a place to conduct political affairs, and we cannot afford to lose it.

　Therefore, the clock tower is to be built first, and then the castle is to be built to connect to the clock tower.

　After much discussion, it was decided that the clock tower would be built under the leadership of Gran and myself, and the other parts of the castle would be built by the original members of the Fontana family, who would hire an architect to build it.

　When I asked Gran what he thought about this, he said that he did not mind.

　He was rather happy to have the opportunity to work with a well-known architect on the castle.

"Well, let's just build a clock tower," he said. I'm thinking of building a tower like this and putting a clock tower on top of it that can be viewed from all four directions.

"Just four clock faces on the wall of the tower, right?　It is not that difficult to make several identical clocks, that it is not, Mr. Ars.

"Is that so?　Don't you have to adjust the combination of gears so that all four clockboards run at the same time?"

You don't have to do that, that you don't have to. If we take advantage of the resonance phenomenon of Valkyrie's horns, there is no problem even if we separate them, that we don't have to do. It would be easier to repair it when it malfunctions if the internal mechanism is not complicated, that it is."

"Oh, I see. It's better not to make it complicated. A clock tower wouldn't need a second hand, so it can be made with a minimum amount of mechanisms.

"Yes, that it is. As long as we set up a power source inside the clock tower using magic steel, crystal, and processed Valkyrie horns, we can build as many clock towers as we want thanks to the phenomenon of co-oscillation, that we can. It is even possible to build the same clock tower at a distance, that it is.

"If we build a clock tower in Vulcania or Baltonia in the Uruk area, for example, it will work, right?　In other words, does that mean we don't have to have magic steel on site?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Of course, that I do. As long as the clock tower that is supposed to be built here in the city of Fontana is working, the ones built in other places do not need magical steel, that they do not need. As long as we have the Valkyrie horns fashioned into the same shape, that is."

"...... Wait a minute. Suppose we made a bell that rings on time in a clock tower. If I put a modified Valkyrie horn on that bell, would it vibrate a horn of the same shape?　Without the need for magic or anything?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That is correct, that it is. The phenomenon of resonance is a characteristic of Valkyrie's horns, that it is. Unlike magic swords and the like, which only work if magic power is applied to them, this phenomenon is caused regardless of the presence or absence of magic power, that it is."

　Seriously.

　If it is different from something like a tuning fork whose vibrations resonate nearby, one has to wonder where it gets the energy that makes its movement possible.

　I have no idea how such a thing could happen, but if Gran says it can be done, then it must be possible.

　This means that it would be possible to ring the bells of the clock tower at exactly the same time in different places.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When the clock tower in the city of Fontana rings its bell, if a Valkyrie horn is attached to the inside of the bell, it could vibrate and make a sound that reproduces the movement of the bell in another place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Worst of all, even if there is no clock tower, it is possible to ring the bells at the same time by hanging the bells.

　I think there are more ways to make use of .......

　I can't think of any off the top of my head, but Gran's story reminds me of a string phone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A string is connected to the bottom of two paper cups, and one of them talks into the paper cup while the other one is held to the ear.

　The vibration transmitted through the string enables the other person's voice to be heard even at a distance.

　I thought this could be connected to the technology of the telephone, but at present, with the Reed family's "telepathic communication," it is probably not something that is immediately necessary.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, I have a feeling that it could be used for purposes other than telephones.

　Oh man.

　I'm surprised that there are so many ways to use Valkyrie, even though its performance is so great.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It makes it more and more important.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After realizing the greatness of Valkyries through the conversation with Gran, I showed my appreciation by carefully brushing each and every Valkyrie in the town of Fontana that day.
