"Jin, can I talk to you for a minute?"

It was Saki who called out. "I've been working on the material resistance table for a while now.

"I've made it this far," she said.

What she showed me was a table listing the heat resistance (melting point) and chemical resistance of ground spider thread, sea dragon wing membrane, ancient dragon shell, crystal, zirconia, gold, silver, mithril, light silver, adamantite, and so on.

"Oh, this is amazing. How did you manage to measure the melting point of ......?"

"Yes, gold and silver are from the old man's knowledge."

That is, from Jin's knowledge.

"I can't accurately measure the shells of ancient dragons and so on, so it's only approximate.

It is true that the threads of a ground spider can be measured at 1,600 degrees Celsius, the wing membrane of a sea dragon at 200 degrees Celsius, and the shell of an ancient dragon at 200 degrees Celsius. The ancient dragon's shell is over 3,000℃.

The most interesting thing about the ancient dragon shells is that they withstood sulfuric acid, nitric acid, royal water, sodium hydroxide, hydrogen fluoride, etc., as well as the body fluids of giant centipedes, acids of gigantopods, and the dissolved fluid of <>.

"But how did you get sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and hydrogen fluoride?

"You're the one who's impressed," Saki chuckled.

Saki chuckled.

"Oh, I see. I see you got some use out of it."

<<
Yes, by the magic of <>, you can only examine known substances.

In the case of hydrogen fluoride HF, we know that it contains fluorine atoms and hydrogen atoms in the ratio of 1:1. After that, since it dissolves silicon dioxide, we guessed that it must be hydrogen fluoride.

We can somehow understand that HNO3 nitric acid contains one hydrogen atom, one nitrogen atom, and three oxygen atoms. Subsequent investigations led to the discovery that it was dilute nitric acid.

However, reagents with chemical formulas too complicated to be determined in this way had to be declared unidentified. Such reagents are sealed.

I guess I will have to ask 700672 about them again.

"But this is very helpful. Saki, thank you.

"Don't thank me. I don't need to thank you. I'm doing this because I want to.

Saki looks happy even as she says this.

"Oh, yeah, there's one thing that's been bothering me."

"What?"

What Saki said next was unexpected even for Jin.

"The properties of the threads of the ground spider are not consistent. The heat resistance ...... melting point? The melting point varies from sample to sample."

"Hmm. ......"

Jin pondered.

"This is a hypothesis that I came up with after thinking about it with the old man, but it seems that there are differences depending on the free magic element (ether) contained in the samples. Maybe it depends on the ground spider."

"That's possible."

"It is possible." "Since it is a material of biological origin, there is a good chance that it varies from one individual to another.

"If that's the case, the materials of Horai Island may also be divided into different grades."

"I see. That's a new discovery!

Yes, you can leave that to me and the old man.

"Yes, please. Saki is very reliable in this kind of work.

"You'll get nothing by flattery."

Saki's cheeks were still stained with tears.

"Well then, let's get to work!

"Don't push yourself too hard."

Jin threw a word of advice at Saki's back as she headed for the lab.

"If there are ground spiders outside of Horai Island, I'd like to compare them.

"Father, are you going to look for them?"

"No, I'm not going. No, I'm not going. I have better things to do right now. If I happen to find it, that is.

"I see..."

Reiko is probably wondering what Jin's next move will be.

"So, what is it that you want to do more than that?"

Jin answers her question.

"I'd like to learn more about this planet.

"The Kingdom of Cerroa is inviting the heads of state and government to a ceremony to celebrate the founding of the Kingdom.

The topic was discussed in the Shoro Kingdom.

There were about ten people in attendance, including the Empress, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Magic and Technology, the Minister of Industry, and the Minister of Finance.

"They are definitely going to make a military demonstration, aren't they?"

The prime minister said in a snarling voice.

"Yes, I suppose so."

The Empress, Gerhard Hilde von Rubies-Scholo, nodded gloomily.

"Yesterday, I ordered Commander Fritz, who is staying in the Kingdom of Egelea, to attend the ceremony with <>."

"<>. I heard that you were attacked by a monster that came out of the ruins of Leonard's kingdom.

Yes. It melted his steel shell.

The Minister of Magical Technology gave this answer.

"I've asked the Magical Engineers(Magical Engineers)...... and Magical Craftsmen of the Kingdom of Egelea to repair it and it should be ready in a day or two."

"Yes. That should be enough time for the ceremony.

The Empress nodded. Then she changed the subject.

"The monster you defeated was the deus ex machina, wasn't it?"

Yes, that is correct.

Jin-kun's brother, right?

That's what I've heard.

He's even more elusive than Jin-kun. ...... I guess it's a good thing he doesn't seem like a bad guy.

"That's right."

Everyone in the room nodded their heads.

Meanwhile, the female emperor was alone in her mind,

(Don't tell me that Machina is not Jin-kun... ......?)

).....

"Are we going to the Kingdom of Cerroa by ship? Or by carriage?"

The next topic was the participation in the ceremony.

"A hot air balloon is another option. ......"

"But I don't trust that country. Isn't it dangerous to do it from the air?

No, that's exactly what we need to show them, that we are not afraid of them.

"You don't have to go to the trouble of provoking ......."

......!

"......!"

The emperor, worried that the debate was heating up and not reaching a conclusion, expressed his opinion himself.

"Let's use all of them!"

"Your Majesty! It's ......

"In the name of celebrating his country's national day, we must show that we are no match for him. I am not asking you to provoke him. That country is a country that will go to any lengths to bully us if we back down. Let us go with an open mind.

The cabinet members are now determined to follow the emperor's words and begin discussing how to divide the land, sea, and air.

The situation on the continent is still unstable.

(Jin-kun says, "Peaceful life ...... is just that, but how difficult it is. ......)

The emperor sighs secretly.
