Well, it's a concept that's rarely seen in Alpha to achieve versatility.
'Not exactly. It's not up to me.
What do you mean?
I'm just anticipating market demand. I love money.

　I wondered at the subject matter, but more importantly, I'd never heard the word "I love you" with such a somber look on my face.
　Inside the currently uselessly large four-horse carriage, Ars and Loki are in the face-to-face seating area, with Hispida Ofame, who is meeting Jean for the first time, across from them.

　The luxury of having three single mages in the carriage had been created.
　And Ars had exchanged greetings lightly, and was in conversation with Hispida as a businessman rather than a magician.

　She is selling a modified version of her own magic book-type AWR for general use in imitation of her own magic book-type AWR.
　The professional version of the spellbook AWR may be useful to Hispida because of its ability to handle a wide variety of magic, but this is the biggest drawback that makes it difficult for ordinary wizards to use.
　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do with it, but it's not a good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do with it.

　You'll need to have a deep understanding of the magic formula, however. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to find a way to get a job as a professional.
　It's a good idea to have a single wizard, Hispida, who is also very famous.

I've been thinking about what a lot of wizards need, and this is what I've come up with.

　Saying that, he was handed a magic book-type AWR in circulation from the side.
　Receiving it, Ars first looked through the overall form, followed by flipping through it.

''I see, you've thought about it,''
"You can see my obsession with money,　And now they say we wouldn't have developed as much as we did without Mr. Hispida in the streets of magic-related matters.

　Hispida doesn't care about Jean's words of admiration and sarcasm...or maybe she really isn't feeling well, so she silently kills him.

　Jean said, "Don't worry about it, you're just working too hard, mainly that way. Mainly that one," he adds with a chuckle.

　Ars nodded vaguely, saying that researchers and tradesmen are probably not much different in terms of overworkedness, and he began to explain for Loki, who was not getting the point next to him.

'The advantage of the magic book-type AWR is that it carves a single magic formula, which is a generalization. It's an advantage and a disadvantage is that it's difficult to use, but this AWR does a good job of combining a systematic magic formula and a single magic formula. This AWR does a good job of combining systematic magic and single magic, although what is actually required is more systematic magic than single magic, and this is an AWR that has both. This is an AWR that has both, so I guess you could call it a general magic-specific version of AWR that no existing AWR has.
'Rusalka is making progress, isn't she?

　Without pausing for Loki's impressions, Hispida brought a correct answer with a pale face, "Bravo!

　As for Ars, it's a product that is designed to sell well, but the focus is exactly that of a researcher.

It's progress, but since AWR is a major production industry for the country, no country can afford to be lazy. In Rusalka, they focus on the number of production, partly because of the large number of mages, and Alpha focuses on quality. There are too many artisans there. In the end, each country has its own characteristics.
You're an erudite, accomplished man, aren't you?

　Als thanked him for the soul-draining interlude of praise and returned the AWR, at a loss for words. Immediately afterwards, the body of the car shook with a thud.

''Gosh!　Ugh ... that's disgusting.
Hey, Mr. Hispida, I said all along it was better not to come if you weren't feeling well, and now I'm coming.

　It's not as if she couldn't bear to be rocked by the carriage anymore, but before she could reply to Jean's words, Hispida looked out of the carriage's small window, holding her mouth down, and looked like a dead man.

　There are not many people who are on her right side in product development. Even she is using it as a publicity stunt to sell herself.
　It could be said that the person called Hispida also had similar aspects to Ars. What they had in common was that the cause of death was overwork.

''Arus-sama, I was wondering, is the combination of a systematic magic formula and a single magic formula a real possibility?

　Perhaps it was to bring back the air of the place, but Loki's question stirred Ars's ears as a researcher.

'You've got a good point,'
Oh, that boy is also erudite....

　At least he wanted to say a few words, but Hispida returned his face to the car for a moment before exposing it again to the view outside.

　Deciding that it seemed best to touch it as little as possible, Ars felt the urge to explain himself to his partner's quick question. Jean listened with a somewhat awkward face, as if he already knew the seed.

''Originally, it's not recommended because it impairs the conduction rate of magic power in any way. As Loki also saw, Letty and others had a separate AWR with a single magic formula inscribed on it.

　Loki's straight eyes affirmed the explanation so far. Even Jean, who was listening across from him, was lightly flushed, "Heh~".

''Having more than two types of AWR is quite a feat. Well, it's not a matter of more is better. As it turns out, it's not impossible to achieve. It's inefficient, though, and even if we could chop it up, we'd have our hands full with one or two. The biggest factor in that is the material from which AWR is made.

　Pikri confirmed that Hispida's shoulder had reacted and continued.

'I'll ignore the skill level, but the magic formula that goes through to build magic from magic power is 100% if it's just one, but if it's more than one, it will inevitably react, so the magic that's poured out is less than 90%.'
'So you're saying that the magic book-type AWRs are inferior in terms of diversity?
Why are you going in there? It's defective. I'm going to find a material that puts the two together. Don't you?　Mr. Hispida.

　Before I knew it, Hispida, who had slackened her arm out the window, weakly raised one hand and affirmed emphatically, "Correct.
　Across the way, Jean could be seen letting out a sigh. Even that wasn't sarcastic.

'I didn't think you'd be able to hide it forever, but I'm surprised you didn't figure it out on first sight. Top Secret is naked, too.
That's my question. You're in business until the technology is stolen, right?

　Hoping it wasn't a Pandora's Box that he shouldn't have to guess, Ars prefaced it by saying it wasn't that hard to figure out.

I'm sure that if you're at all familiar with the structure of AWR, you'll realize that there is no such thing as materials. To begin with, a magic book type is like an AWR if you take it apart, the pages are like an AWR. The cover and exterior are decorative, but you've got another AWR in there. Perhaps it has the systematic magic formula inscribed on it but also serves as a circuit as a good conductor?
I'm here.
Can't we use this to apply it to more AWRs?
No, no.....

　It was an abomination that would have been completely out of character for a woman. For a race like hers, even fashions and make-up interests seemed to be secondary and tertiary.
　Jean opened her mouth as she took over about the application and leaned her weight against the back with a thud.

'It's a moderately expensive one, partly because of the quantity it produces. It can only be used for auxiliary purposes in the magic book type or less, which can be produced in very small quantities. The spellbook type that Hispida-san put up for sale had to be expensive for an AWR. The cost isn't ridiculous, and that's exactly what Hispida-san's business strategy is right now. As Ars also said, this material is called Augurite, but the ratio of content still inhibits the magic power,
Oh, so you're exactly the right person for a grimoire AWR?
That's what I mean.

　Around the sound of Hispida's belly breathing, which had suddenly begun, Jean was indeed unable to see it.

''By the way, Jean, are you going to continue on your way to the Headmaster's?''

　When he only turned his face to rub Hispida's back, Jean forced his cheeks up with a punishing look on his face and told him. It was awkward for him, and he couldn't shake the awkwardness.

'I've been working without sleep on my political duties for the day over there, too...'
You've run out of steam.
'Oh, I'm sleepy now. I should be awake tomorrow. So, the plan is...
Wait a minute, I've got other plans.

　It's an errand that only takes a few hours to run, though, because I have to be near Rusalka.

I'm sorry, but Ars and his friends are guests of honor. You asked for it on condition that it wasn't made public. Just allow me to get a little time to myself. We won't take all of your precious few days.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out if you have any free time for even a sneak peek, and at the same time, with a crunch, Ars's neck snapped powerlessly as if he had fainted.

　Hearing the continuous sound of horseshoes, Ars sighed that even this carriage must be modest, and gave one of the head nods that made his opponent's face stand up.

　In short, Ars, who expected that his job as a single mage would be waiting for him, hit the stop in front of a structure that resembled something by the fading light of a small window.
　It's hard to dismiss the rest as work, since the work imposed on single mages in Alpha goes through the military's request. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier and more fun.

　One of them.

'The First Academy of Magic, huh?'
I'm invited once a year to give a lecture. It's partly to raise awareness, but it's also because they've never been able to talk about the field. It's a way to keep the peace. Since they are from Alpha, it's a good opportunity for them to learn more about other countries, which is what Master Lithia and Chancellor Corsei want to do.
Hey, you want me to act like a teacher?
You are, in fact.

　When Ars gets out of the carriage, he is trapped in a situation where he cannot refute the words that hurt his ears. It's not the same as speaking out, but that's how it seems to be interpreted when you have a pupil.
　This must be unavoidable, he thinks, as the blond youth taps him on the shoulder.

''First, take a look at Lusarka's pride and joy, and then you can present your findings as you wish. Lithia-sama and the others don't have that much on their hands. You want to make a place for them to interact with single magicians. And more importantly, first place.

　Jean says the sarcastic words with a clean face.
　Feeling uncomfortable doing it, Ars ruffled his hair back messily. Surely this is also a good experience. You can also take a handout to the chancellor. He had a faint hope that he would be able to be a little more flexible with his units.

　What a damaging role to play with a single mage in Rusarka, it seems. It's probably because of his awareness of being the last bastion of humanity, though.
　Ars felt troublesome enough to reconsider the extent to which his affiliation was better with Alpha.
