Chapter 248.2. Preparations For The Duel
“In that case, we must win. Hurry up and make the float board, Lug.”
“Yeah, got it. Since the mana output from the mana drive is quite significant according to the regulations, it should be enough if we load up these magic stones.”
Laying out the fueling magic stones on the table, Lug swiftly inserted them into the device. The design was already complete, so all that was left was the manufacturing.
“Wait a moment! Huh? Are you planning to use magic stones of this high quality?”
“Don’t be too stingy with the magic stones. It’s an order from the president.”
“These magic stones are of an incredibly high quality that I’ve rarely seen! They’re worth around 3 billion… no, 5 billion yen each? They’re the kind used for large-scale magical weapons! Even battleships can use them!”
Ninny’s expression turned incredulous as she picked up one of the twenty magic stones. While Mii-chan couldn’t understand, the tiny magic stones held concentrated mana within them.
Watching Ninny’s confusion, Lug sighed and shot her a sidelong glance.
“But still, the president? Lug-chan might be used to it, but something’s off here.”
“You can gather as many magic stones as you want. You can use all of them!”
We can gather magic stones around Level 50 in abundance. There’s no issue with using however many we want.
There are plenty of High Lich magic stones, after all. Frigg-oneesan exchanged them all for gems in one invisible sweep despite not being interested in magic stones.
By the way, I took Frigg-oneesan’s because the gems were grabbed by an unseen hand.
“Sure, sure. Then let’s keep the magic stones in a constant state of full output to the mana drive. There’s no rule about the capacity for mounting magic stones.”
Humming a tune, Lug continued to load the magic stones. Ninny, who watched, glanced at Mii-chan. As if confirming whether it was okay, then returned her attention.
“Come on, Ninny-chan, how about you enchant it with magics?”
“Sigh… I think the way you people use money here is strange. Well, fine.”
Ninny is placing her hand on the board. Her eyes narrowed as she concentrated. She took a light breath and cast her spells.
[Surface Float]
[Aerial Maneuver]
[Terrain Traverse]
[Speed Boost]
[Wind Pressure Reduction]
[High-Speed Flight]
Ninny is casting one spell after another. The board glowed brightly. The fluidity with which she cast the spells in succession was the mark of a true genius. Truly befitting of Nini.
“If we follow the rules, this should be sufficient.”
“Oh, you’ve already familiarized yourself with the rules. You’re amazing, Ninny-chan!”
Applauding enthusiastically, I praised her with a smile.
“Well, that’s obvious. I’m planning to participate in the martial arts tournament too.”
Ninny shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. She’s a girl who loves getting praised. But Mii-chan had also familiarized herself with the rules.
“I’ve read the rules too! Bribing the referees is prohibited. Buying off your opponent’s mechanics is prohibited. Applying various spells to your opponent in advance is prohibited.”
“Hey, did you and I read different rulebooks?”
“What matter is that it’s okay to cheat as long as they don’t find out! It doesn’t say we’re forbidden to play with magic as long as we don’t get caught!”
“That’s some serious misinterpretation!”
Ninny seemed to yell something, but she following the rules. Mii-chan’s a good girl, after all.
“If you’re a lady, then it’s as usual. Step back.”
“Hmm? Are you planning to enchant it again? Genius that I am, I’ve enchanted it to its limit, so it’s impossible.”
Rising from the chair with a sigh, Grandpa Odin, who had been leaning on it, touched the board with his finger. Ninny responded with a proud puff of air.
“It’s certainly enchanted to the limit, shisho. If we push it further, it’ll break.
Lug cautioned, but leaning forward, her eyes sparkled with curiosity. Grandpa Odin’s interest was piqued despite Ninny saying it was impossible.
“Hmph, let’s try if it’s futile or not.”
He lightly slid his finger across the board. Intricate patterns appeared, glowing radiantly.
“[Falcon Rune]. The power of the flying king resides within.”
Uttering this succinctly, he tapped the board one final time, and the board shone brilliantly.
“What was that? What magic was that just now? Shisho, you can tell Lug-chan, right?”
“Is this a rune? But I don’t sense mana, yet I feel power. What’s going on?! I want to know too!”
Excitedly, Lug and Ninny crowded around Grandpa Odin while shielding their eyes from the light.
Indeed, the power of the Rune was formidable. In battles, it could deliver potent effects through attacks and support.
However, Mii-chan was surprised by the scene. The reason? Because…
Why is it usable for production? Rune magic should only work during battles.
She thought it would be a design for magic circles, as usual, to assist in production, but Rune?
Mii-chan tilted her head with a perplexed expression, and Grandpa Odin must have noticed.
[Since you’re defeating the shadow of Jormungandr, our god powers have been returning.]
His single eye gleamed as he transmitted this shocking revelation through thought.
Hmm? Seriously? Are the gods’ original god powers being restored?
