 The day after the party, Jin and Marikka moved to Onogoro Island.

Welcome, Marikka!

"I've come here today to ask you some questions."

Please feel free to ask me anything.

Jin-sama will explain it to you.

"...... Actually, there has been an occurrence of <> for the past few days. ......"

 Jin explained the circumstances, explained the danger, and speculated.

"Do you know anything about this?"

"How about ......?"

There is no record of any such phenomenon, Marikka.

I see. ......

I am sorry I cannot be of more help.

 In addition, since <> is mainly managed by the planet Arus, they were not monitoring the space.

"I'm sorry, Jin-sama."

 On the way home, Jin consoles Marikka, who is a little wilted.

"No, on the contrary, I have learned that it does not happen that often. So cheer up."

"Thank you for ......."



 Jin then sent Marikka and Zion back to the , and began to devote himself to his research again.

 Because of the circumstances, Erza has a hard time telling him not to do too much. So she came up with a plan.

"Hannah, can you be my brother Jin's assistant?"

"Yes, sure!"

 Erza thought that since Jin had a soft spot for Hanna, he would not force her to do anything, and that her ideas would be useful to Jin.

 And she was right.

"Hey, sweetie, it's almost lunchtime."

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


"...... Oh, yeah, right. Let's take a break."

 Jin honestly stopped his research and got up from his seat. Reiko saw him and smiled.

Jin, you're just in time. Lunch is ready.

 When I went to the cafeteria, Erza and Meane had just finished preparing the meal.

 Today's menu was morisoba. It comes with freshly fried tempura.

"Erza, are you sure you can smell the oil?

 Jin worried about his morning sickness.

"No, I'm fine today. Besides, my mother fried the tempura for me.

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


Yes, that's right. Besides, it seems to be all right as long as you eat a little at a time, not just three meals.

 This method that Meane mentioned seemed to be effective for Elsa, since a full stomach could make her hyperemesis worse.

"Persica, citran, and april juices also seem to be good.

 All fruits from Penglai Island are high in nutritional value. It was one way to consume less solid food and get more calories from the juices.

"It's much easier now."

"Well, I'm glad to hear that."

 Jin ate up the soba noodles served to him. Hannah slurped down her soba as well.

"It's delicious."

"Good. You can have another one, too.

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


 In the end, Hitoshi had three pieces of soba and Hanna had two more.



 As a side note, I heard that at a soba restaurant, if you eat a lot of soba, you should ask for a second helping instead of ordering a large serving.

 This way, the aroma of soba would not be lost and the soba would not be stretched.



Thank you for the food.

 After the soba-yu (buckwheat noodle soup), we sipped soba-cha (buckwheat tea).

 Erza also drank buckwheat tea with the group and asked them a question.

"How is your research going?"

 After taking a sip of the buckwheat tea, Jin opened his mouth.

"Well, I guess so-so... ......?"

 < is going well," Jin explained.

"We've more than doubled the efficiency compared to the prototype, and we have a good prospect of deploying it in a hemispherical shape."

"That's good to hear."

"But I can't predict the <> at all."

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


"That's right. We don't have enough data to make a prediction.

 Hannah also looked a little tired.

"That's a problem.

"The next best thing I'm thinking is to set up warding as soon as I detect a vibration, but I can't react faster than 1/10,000th of a second. ......"

"That makes sense."

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



 It would have to be at least 1/100,000th of a second, since it would have to be at least an order of magnitude faster than that to be meaningful.

"I think it's theoretically possible."

"What? Is that so?

 Erza could not imagine how such a short time could be measured.

"In my former world, there was a world where time was measured in nanoseconds ...... billionths of a second.

"Ten billionths?

 Erza was astonished at the number.

"I think it's possible with ether waves. But ......."

"Is there a problem?"

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



"Yes. ......"

 Jin replies to this question with a sullen look on his face.

"If you want to make it react faster, you have to make it smaller, and then you can't deploy a wide range of wards.

 When Jin had said all that, an idea popped into his head.

"Relay or ......!"

"Relay?"

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



"Onii-chan, what's a relay?"

 Neither of them knew what a relay was. Jin had only replaced them in the past for system maintenance.

"Well, a relay is a component used to control a large output with a small signal.

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



"...... means that the detection part is made small and the field generation part is made large. And connect them with the , is that correct?"

 Elsa gave us a concrete description of Jin's idea.

"But aren't you worried that the reaction will be delayed by the in between?"

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



 Hannah voiced her concerns.

"Yes, but if the total reaction time of the detection unit and the relay is short enough, I think we can manage it."

"Ah, yes!"

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



"Yes, that makes sense."

"Let's try this experiment right away."

 Jin went to the workshop immediately. Hannah and Erza follow him. This time, Erza is just watching.

"I'm feeling a little better so far.

 Her hyperemesis seemed to be lessening.

"Okay, I'm going to ask for Little Craftsman Smith's help to make it smaller.

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





 Little Craftsman (Smith) is a small golem, 40 centimeters tall. He is good at precision work because of his small size.

"I want to make something called ....... Can you do it for me?

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



"Yes, master."

 Little Craftsman (Smith) replied in a small but high-pitched voice and immediately set to work.

 However, it is not a mechanical part but a magical part, so the main task is to write on the magecrystal.

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



It's done.

Thank you.

 The necessary write-in was done in one minute.

"Okay. This is the detection part, and this is the part that acts as a relay. This is the detection part, and this is the part that works as a relay.

 Jin did the work on this side.

"This completes the prototype, but we can't test it here. ......"

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



 Since we can't test it indoors, we decided to take the prototype out front.



"This will do."

 Jin sets up the prototype in the vestibule of the institute.

"The field is supposed to be generated 5 meters above this thing, with a diameter of 10 meters," he said.

 But then Jin notices a problem.

"How can we stimulate this detector and measure the time it takes for the warding to occur? ......

 It does not seem to be that easy.

 Jin and his colleagues ponder further.
