"Fuyu-dono, this is........

　Everyone looked at the "it" we were each given at the meeting.
　In terms of shape, it is slightly larger than the one I have. The color is white, so that it is different from my original one at first glance.

''This is similar to the artifact that Fuyou-dono has, but you don't think...''
'Yes. Officially, it's also called a "smart phone," or "smartphone" for short, or "smartphone" for short. The one I gave you all is a simplified version, though it's different from mine.

　He begins to explain, answering King Linier's questions.

'First of all, the button on the top of the side, right here, you can press it here to activate it. Press it.
'Oh! Hey, something's coming up!
There's a bunch of little pictures...

　It looks like it's turned on properly. By the way, the letters and such are in the universal language here, so you should be able to read them without any problems.

The top display is the time and battery........uh, remaining magic power. Please note that if this place goes from 100% to 0%, this tool will stop working. Don't worry, even if it stops working, it will return to normal by applying magic power to it.

　Next, I choose 'Emperor Regulus' from 'Contacts' and make a call.

'Whoa!

　His Majesty the Emperor almost drops the phone in his hand unexpectedly at the sudden ringing of the phone.
　Everyone's gaze turns towards it, and some of them stand up from their chairs with a clatter.

''Don't worry. This is me making a 'phone call' to His Majesty the Emperor. Your Majesty, can you read the words on the screen, Emperor?
Mm-hmm. It's "King Brunhild.
'This way you can see who it's from. Now, touch the green symbol underneath it and then hold the phone to your ear, just like I did.

　Fearfully, His Majesty the Emperor touched the screen as he was told and put the phone to his ear.

''Hello? Can you hear me?
'Ooh, I can hear the Duke's voice in my ear! 'I see, so this is how you can use it as a communication tool!

　We're all familiar with FrameGear's communication function to begin with, so it's easy to understand.

If you touch the picture [icon] with the word 'contact' on the screen, you'll see a list of names. When you touch that name, you can call the person you are calling. Let's see if this person sitting here can make a call to the person in front of them.

　It's starting to feel like a computer school for the elderly.
　Then I taught the kings of the nations various functions.
　But it doesn't have that many apps in it. On the outside, it's my world's phone, but inside, it's the Dr.'s original (or rather, it's a pastiche).
　Phone, camera, maps, compass, calculator, memo, clock, email, lights, calendar, games, and so on.
　Well, maps and the like don't have a "search" compared to mine, so it's pretty much a down version. But I can still search for my current location, city names and so on.
　We left the kings frolicking like kids with a new toy for a while, trying to call each other and sending emails, but it was getting out of hand, so I let them settle down for a moment.

'I know this is a bit of a back and forth, but you can have that phone. If you lose it or have it stolen, please let me know right away so I can return it to you with our controls.
This is too convenient.... It's going to make interstate communication a lot easier.

　Admiringly, the Governor of Rhodomeer All-State expressed his impressions while touching his phone.

''Fuyu-dono. I've been wondering about this 'game' icon from a while ago? Is it possible that.....
'Yeah, I just put it in there to try it out. There are several games in it. If you communicate, you can play shogi with two players, or play mahjong or cards with up to four players simultaneously.
""Hmmm."

　Kiran, and the four game loving dads, Belfast, Regulus, Liefries, and Mismid, had a glint in their eyes.

'In case you're wondering, though, we've put a limit of two hours a day on this one.
" " " " " " " "

　Eh, no. If you don't, you'll just keep doing it, I promise. It would be a shame for the prime minister and the people of that country if it affects the national politics and such.
　Well, it would be nice if they could get to know each other better and get to know each other better through phone calls and e-mails without hesitation.

'And here's the footage I took with my camera, but I can print it out like this at my house, so just let me know if you need it.

　The King of Belfast stood up with a start when I showed him a picture (or rather a printed one) of Hanakoi's sister, who was looking boldly at the camera.

I can't do this," he said. I've got to go home and take pictures of Yamato!

　I don't know if he's ever been this stupid.
　Anyway, I decided to bring this meeting to an end. Then His Holiness the Pope of Ramichon came to me and said

Do you have this copy of the Utsuoshi-e? If you have it, I would like to have it for two people.

　I wonder if he was this light. Well, as a priesthood worker, maybe it's not a wrong move.





　After the meeting, I received a call right away. But it wasn't the kings. The word "Doctor" floats on the screen. It is said that these communications use a magic formula and imprinting magic that uses magic elements rather than radio waves, so it's almost impossible to not get connected. It seems that this technology was common in the era of the ancient magical civilization where Dr. Wells was from.

''Yes, hello.''
'Hi, Winter Night? What the hell is that 'hello' all about?'
In my country, the word comes from "I swear, I swear", I think. I'm going to talk to you now"? Or something like that.

　I think they said something like that on TV. It's unclear, I didn't see it clearly.

"Yes, interesting. So, what was the king's reaction?
You're good. Everyone was happy to see you.
That's superimposed. But that's a much-reduced version.
What you make has too many extra features. Where in the world would you find an idiot who puts a self-destruct mechanism on his phone?

　I was in this world, though! I'll have to wait until after I've added other features that I don't need, such as the ability to generate ultrasonic waves that can break glass, and the ability to take a picture of an arbitrary object through it, and so on.
　There's something wrong with this doctor. I don't know how many times the phrase "there's a fine line between a genius and an idiot" has crossed my mind.

'Well, that's okay. By the way, the new frame gear that Rosetta and Monica were working on, Suu-kun's is up to them, but Linse-kun and Lean-kun's plane is mine to proceed with, right?
'Yeah. I'm sure both of them will be magic-centered, but the magic doesn't work on Fraise. I think the style of magic will be mainly defensive magic, and the attacks will be done using the flying sword [Fragarach].
I love that weapon. I didn't think you could make something like that out of a satellite orb. Do you know anything about Earth?
Well, yeah.

　Anime knowledge, though. Talking about it could get nasty again, so I'll keep it quiet. It's not like I'm going to make a wooden horse battleship or anything.
　As soon as I hung up the doctor's phone, I received a call from Sakura this time. Hm? What is it?

Hello?
"Well, hello. King, are you okay now?
I'm fine. What's going on?
"Hey, um, my mom wants to talk to you about school.
Fianna?

　The school that was to be Sakura's mother, Fianna's work space, was already about eighty percent complete. Right now it was only a pilot, so there was only one class, but it would be expanded when the number of students increased.

'Where is Fiana-san now?'
"He's at school with me.
Okay, I'm on my way.

　I hung up the phone, opened the 'gate' and headed to the school and found Sakura, Fiana, and Naito's old man and Nyantaro at the building site of the school building.

'Ah, Fuyao-san. Sorry to bother you.
No, what's going on?

　Fiana bows her head. 'Did something go wrong?

'Well, actually, when we started the school for the children, we talked to several houses with children in them. Then the word got out and we had more people than I expected. It became a number that would be difficult for me to handle on my own...
'What? How many are we up to now?

　I asked an old Naito man who was next to me.

'Nearly eighty people in all,'
'What? Did we have that many kids?
The number of immigrants has increased again in recent years. From the children of settlers to merchants, carpenters, carpenter's children to the children of adventurous couples.

　Oh, yeah. Well, not all of us are single. Some of them moved in with their families.
　We had planned to have about 20 people move in. Four times as many.

Hmm, maybe we should hire another teacher or two?
I'd appreciate it. It's much easier when there are three of us.

　Fianna-san patted her chest as if she was relieved. It will be a national facility, so I'll have to attend an interview or something.
　I'll have to inform Kosaka-san of the recruitment process. It is too small as it is now, so I'll ask Naito's old man to build an extension to the classroom.
　Anyway, that's it.

What are you doing here, Nantarou?
That's why it's d'Artagnan! I was entrusted by the princess with guarding your mother.
Yeah.

　I briefly wondered if I'd done a good job of getting rid of Nantarou, but I decided to keep my mouth shut, thinking that since he's motivated, I didn't need to be depressed by anything unnecessary.

'D'Artagnan helps me with a lot of things, so that's a big help.
"Mother..... Mother........." "Mother is the only person who calls me by my name properly. Recently, even the princess has been calling me Nantarou...
It's easy to say.

　Sakura replies sullenly. Nyantauro seems to be pining for Fiana. This guy, let's make him the janitor of the school like this. A janitor knight. No, a janitorial cat knight.
　The problem seems to be solved for now, so I guess we'll have dinner at Ginsuki for the first time in a while. Sakura and Fianna-san will be with me.
　And just as I thought that, the cell phone in my pocket started vibrating again. Again? Who is it this time?
　The words "Kosaka-san" appeared on the screen of the phone I took out.

''Your Majesty. I have a stack of documents to withdraw your approval, so please use the 'gate' and return immediately.
Hey.....

　
　I'm starting to feel like I'm pressed for time. It's like we're all so busy.
　I opened the "gate" to the castle, thinking that it is unthinkable to be able to contact them so easily.
