　A spirit stone obtained in the village of Atmos.

　This is basically a magic stone.

　However, unlike the magic stone that can be created by the magic stone generation, this stone has a kind of earth attribute.

　Using this, the Briaria Magikoku has created a magical weapon.

　By drawing a magic circle, it is a terrifying technology to create a rock giant that moves according to the will of the owner of the magic power that passes through it.

　And the two who analyzed it and created a new one are Brother Ars and Brother Kyle.

　The two of them analyzed the magic circle technology and further created a persona called "Eye" to control the humanoid by the Eye.

　The Eye can record and scrutinize a vast amount of knowledge and can be entrusted with a variety of tasks, although it does not have the simple combat power of a magical weapon.

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

　Moreover, it looks completely human and beautiful.

　I wanted to make an eye like that, but it seems that I can't do the same thing.

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

　The spirit stones alone cannot make the humanoid into a human being.

　The materials for that purpose would be difficult to obtain in the East, since they would have to be obtained by using the transfer magic circle in the Barca line to a place in the sea and jungle far away from where we do not even know where it is.

　Then the question is whether to make an eye without hair or skin.

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

　Functionally, I do not think it would be a problem.

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

　An eye is still an eye even without hair or skin.

　As long as the eye is operated by the body in the head of Kaiser Valkyrie, its knowledge is the same, and it can generate voice by a mechanism that vibrates a stone produced from a spirit stone.

"I will advise Mr. Alphonse. If you are going to make a new terminal, it might be better not to make it look too much like a person.

"Does that mean I can't have a body that looks like the Eye without skin?"

It does not mean that it is not recommended, but it is not recommended. It is said that we judge our impressions of others by looking at them, and we may be disgusted if we see a humanoid that looks too much like a person. Mr. Ars called it the uncanny valley phenomenon.

"The uncanny valley. What does that mean?"

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

"When a humanoid's appearance becomes somewhat similar to that of a human and its movements are similar to those of a human, those who see it initially feel a sense of familiarity. However, when it gets closer to a human, the viewer feels aversion to it, and finally, when it becomes indistinguishable from a human, the viewer feels familiarity with it once again. If you curve it, it has ups and downs just like a valley, so it is called the uncanny valley phenomenon.

"Heh. Maybe that's what happened when you first made the eye?"

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

"Yes. So, if you cannot reproduce the hair or skin, we recommend that you change the appearance.

　I see.

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

　It seems that Brother Ars has done more research than I thought he would.

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

　I see.

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

　That's why he started to make a humanoid different from the Eye later.

　When I last entered the castle, there must have been small magical weapons in armor as guards.

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

　Maybe it's because they are in armor that people don't feel aversion to them.

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

"So, should we make a terminal for Ai in armor, too?"

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

　Ai's body, which he calls the uncanny valley, would probably not be able to play the role of a teacher.

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

　Ai's creepy moving puppet might not be able to teach.

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

　Then I thought that I should be in armor, but I am not so sure.

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

　I guess it would be good for a guard, but not so good for a teacher.

"I don't mean to be presumptuous, but may I give you my opinion?

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

"Of course. What do you think?

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

"Mr. Alphonse is going to make more of my terminals to make teachers for the school, but I don't think it is necessary that all the teachers be me. Rather, it would be better to recruit others.

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

"Well, maybe so, but I'd probably learn faster if Ai taught me, right?　I think it was thanks to Ai that we were able to educate those orphans so well."

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

"But there is a problem. My knowledge is limited and still not enough. Also, my teaching style is not diverse enough, and it is possible that in the future my students will all think in the same way."

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

"...... Is that a bad idea?　I don't think it's okay.　I mean, I think Ai has a tremendous amount of knowledge."

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

"No. Not yet. And we need diversity. My knowledge is based on information brought to me by wise people, and it is still being added and updated. New knowledge and perspectives are valuable, and it is better to expand them than to narrow them.

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

"Is that how it is?　Well, that's all right then. It seems like it would be hard to get reliable teachers. But in that case, what should we use the spirit stones for?　Is there any good use for it?"

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

"There are many ways to use it. However, there are some that cannot be made.

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

　For now, I think we should hold off on increasing the number of eyes.

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

　We'll figure out the faculty later.

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

　But then, how can we make use of the spirit stones?

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

　The problem is that the number is limited.

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

　We have enough for a warehouse full of them, but that's it, after all.

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

　There is no guarantee that we will be able to get the spirit stones next time, thanks to the giant plaster that wiped out the entire garrison of the Bryllian mage country.

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

　My first thought was to build a magic weapon here.

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

　But that would have required a certain size of spirit stones, as I recall.

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

　I heard that the Brillia mage country used the larger spirit stones for magic weapons and the smaller ones for rock crossbow staffs, so we have to make sure that there are enough spirit stones to make magic weapons among the amount we have secured.

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

　But it seems that there are many other ways to use the magic circle and the spirit stones.

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

　We decided to listen to what Ai had to say and consider what kind of things we could make.
