"And then there's Goshujin-sama's weapon, isn't it?"

Anne said as she looked at the reinforced clothes that had been completed.

"The <> and <> are too powerful and are for long to medium range. Please also bring weapons for close range."

"I see..."

Anne's suggestion is a good one. But Jin can't do martial arts.

"Then, I think it would be better to wield something like a stick. ......

At any rate, Jin tries to imagine himself wielding a stick. ...... something is different. Jin couldn't imagine it.

"A sword then? They say you can't cut with a sword unless the blade is sharp, and adamantite is too heavy.

The force of about twice as much is not enough to wield an adamantite sword.

"Well, ...... it has to be light, which means that material is not good enough. ......"

I thought about it and came up with the sword of light from the famous movie.

"I think I can manage that."

Jin draws a plan in his mind.

"It's no good for trapping plasma ....... It's too violent as an anti-personnel weapon. It's the same ...... with lightning-based magic."

Jin keeps twisting his head.

"Well, I thought it was a good idea.

"Goshujin-sama, in that case, please equip defensive wards first.

Anne offers a helping hand. But it literally helped Jin to get an idea.

"Right! A barrier! A sword with the same force field as the barrier!

Jin began to think about the possibility of creating a magic barrier in the form of a sword, which would expand into a sphere or a disk. It is easy to make a spherical or disc-shaped barrier, but it is extremely difficult to make it into a sword shape.

"Yes! I can do it! I can do it!"

But Jin's knowledge of magic and experience on Earth made it possible.

"Why don't we make the pole for deploying the magic barrier into the shape of a sword?

The Magic Barrier is a wall made of free magic element (ether). The principle is simple. It is a combination of attraction and repulsion to free magic element (ether). Where they balance each other, an invisible wall is built.

To put it more simply, the free magical element (ether) attracted by attraction and the free magical element (ether) pushed away by repulsive force. The density of free magic elements (ether) at the place where they collide and balance each other becomes tens of thousands of times higher than that of normal space. If we could connect these free magical elements (ether) with each other. That is a magic barrier.

The strength of the magic barrier is determined 50% by the concentration of free magic element (ether), and 50% by the connecting power of the mesh. The size of the mesh is such that free magic element (ether) can easily pass through it, so there is no danger that the mage inside will run out of free magic element (ether).

The poles for generating attraction and repulsion may be rings or virtual points created by the mage in space. At the risk of sounding tedious, since the designation of a virtual point also requires magic power, it is more efficient to use a magic tool such as a ring.

Now, Jin has come up with the idea of making the in the shape of a sword.

"Normally, it would be a spherical surface because it radiates from the <."

That is, a web of ether is formed equidistant from the radiant point.

"If we make it into the shape of a sword and change the intensity in some parts, ...... oh, that's good."

Changing the strength changes the distance at which the attractive and repulsive forces are balanced. If the poles were points, it would be too difficult to control, but in the form of a sword, it would be relatively easy (for Magecraft Meister).

It still needs to be fine-tuned, but the sword-shaped Magi Crystal in Jin's hand emitted a dim light about 50 centimeters in diameter, which looked like a sword.

"Okay, this way here, this way there..."

Jin made some adjustments to the magical language written on the sword-shaped Magi Crystal.

After about three adjustments,

"It's done!

Jin exclaimed joyfully.

"I changed the output to ......oh!

When short, it was about 40 centimeters long, and when long, it was more than two meters long.

"Well, how sharp is it?"

Jin tried cutting at a piece of wood that was lying around.

"Huh?"

But contrary to his expectation, it did not cut.

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



"Hmm, maybe it's because it's just a stick-shaped barrier as it is now. ......

He guesses the reason and takes a countermeasure.

"If we change a part of this connected free magic element (ether) into flame ...... or even heat energy..."

After some modifications, he experimented again.

"What do you think? ...... ah-chi-chi chi-chi."

Hot air leaked out.

"I need to reduce the amount of free magic element (ether) to be converted into heat energy a little more.

And the third time.

"Yes, that's it!"

The magic sword glowed blue-white. The temperature must be over 10,000 degrees. When I cut it on a piece of wood, not only did the section turn black and charred, but some of it evaporated.

Next, I'll try it with a steel bar. He puts on his helmet and asks Reiko to help him.

"Reiko, take that iron rod there and hit me lightly. I'm going to hit you lightly.

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



"Yes, sir."

Reiko reminded him and hit him with the iron rod about 2cm thick and 80cm long. Jin caught her with his magic sword.

The basic form of the barrier is a sword-shaped barrier, so it can catch a real sword.

The bar melts into two pieces within a second or so. If it receives a sword, it will damage the other's sword.

"Okay, how about electric energy?"

I modified the MagiLanguage and tried to create electric energy by using lightning magic.

"Well, how about it?"

It starts up. The sword looks pale and yellowish at the same time.

"Well, it's too dangerous to let you touch it. ....... Reiko, put that bar on the ground.

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



"Yes, Father."

Reiko sticks the iron bar, about 60 cm... a little bit into the ground.

"Okay, here we go..."

Jin swings his sword down at the iron bar. At that moment, whether the sword touches the bar or not, an arc discharge occurs, and for a moment it glows dazzlingly with a crackling discharge sound.

Without the light-shielding function of the helmet, it is likely to cause damage to the eyes.

The next moment, the sword made contact with the iron bar, sending out sparks like an electric welder, cutting the bar in two. The white-hot iron splatters.

"How many billions of volts are there to be incandescent at a moment's notice? ......"

Jin stares at the sword intently. I feel like I've made something terrible. If it weren't for the magical electrical energy, Jin, who is closest to the sword, would have been the first to suffer damage.

"Now we just have to make it so that we can control this voltage..."

Jin muttered to himself, and after making improvements to adjust the size of the swords and the thermal and electrical energy, he had finally completed two magic swords as magical tools.

"Shall we make <> and <>?"

Masamune is a heat-based sword and Muramasa is a lightning-based sword. And their names are already in the same style.

"Goshujin-sama, thank you for your hard work."

Father, would you like to take a bath?

Anne and Reiko called out to Jin as he finished his work. Jin stretched,

"Yeah, I think I'll take a bath.

He said, "Yeah, I think I'll take a bath. Reiko followed him, while Anne cleaned up.

"Ah, I feel so tired.

Jin soaks himself in the hot spring water at the hotel, and makes an old man's voice.

Okay, let's proceed as planned.

Yes, sir.

That night, Jin was waiting for a call from Reinhardt, but he was getting worried when he did not hear from him after the scheduled time.

Then he received an urgent message from Lao Tzu.

Master (My Lord), Sage has called. They say that Reinhardt has been kidnapped.

What?

We've just increased the number of SPs.

"We went to Dali where Reinhardt is via the base at the fort ruins, but we couldn't reach him in time by a narrow margin.

"You Unifilers ...... didn't listen to my advice!"

Jin's anger quietly flared.

Horai Island, prepare to launch.
