74 Prepare for battle, magic laws

After the meeting, Fermenia had been called out by Mizumi and was now visiting his research room, which was being treated as being held while it was not open.

Fermenia has a crease between her eyebrows since she asked me to just come here without any explanation. When I opened the door closed by special procedures, the caller was organizing some sort of mess and research tools behind the room.

"Lord Swimey. Fermenia Stingray, I'm here."

"Oh, are you here? Then hang it in the right place."

Shui Ming gives instructions by hand gesture alone, without showing his face. Fermenia, as he says, sits on the chair he had left behind. Then, the goods were finished organizing, or the water came close.

"Bad every time"

"No, I don't mind. So, what the hell is wrong with you, Lord Swimey? Just me?

"Oh, I'm going to tell you something separately, and I'm going to talk to you about standing around tonight."

"Just me, is it?

Mitsumi agrees with Fermenia's surprise. In an earlier meeting, we were to disperse it between a group going to defeat the mastermind and an imperial unit led by Graziella and Elliott.

"As I was saying, I have to go with Liliana. That dangerous woman and the Napa brave will have you partitioned."

"Oh, that's..."

Fermenia gets a slightly different look from her usual condition when she hears unexpected words. Speak of the anticipation she came up with.

"That's right. Graziella's response is inevitable, and I thought I'd have you do it."

"Wow ⁉ I'm the ⁉ I'm the one ⁉"

"It's about Tia who can deal with that other dangerous woman, but she won't be able to use that hand at that rate. It's going to take Lephire a little longer, and then I knew you were the only one who said it out of strength."

"So, but ⁉ in my opinion, it's only a matter of strength to deal with Her Royal Highness Princess Graziella..."

"You can't?

"Naturally! It's impotent! They're the most powerful wizards in the empire. ⁉"

Fermenia shook her neck sideways and complained of the absurdity of things.

"But you're Astel's best wizard, aren't you?

"Magic is the highest on the continent because the Empire has a Magic Leadership!

Fermenia is elusive at all times. Is Graziella a recognition as superficial to her?

To her like that, Shuiming turns a half-eye like a little frightened.

"... you got away with being so cool last time, didn't you?

"Ah! That's the one called bounce! The second time is sold out!

When she shouted to Mizumi with momentum, she immediately said "Aww..." and was crushed and quenched by worry.

"Will you remain anxious?"

"... Yes"

"I think I'm fine... If it had been before, it would have sucked, but I remember all sorts of magic now, and if I could just move like I said and give Trinity and the others instructions, I would be able to deal with it without a problem..."

"Ho, is that true?

"Oh."

Shuiming nodded to Fermenia's inquiry and began explaining.

"Fair enough. Shall we put it behind us about standing around the day? From now on, Fermenia will be asked to study one of the important laws of magic overview, covert entropy."

"Yes, a covert Eunno-Pi...?... That's a very amazing name."

Heard of witchcraft, Fermenia is turning away from her earlier atrophy and embarking on all the rashes. Until just now, I was feeling anxious about the blame, which would have turned out to be a lie, because of her inexhaustible nature of mystery.

"Yes, but before we talk about it, I want you to say to me verbally what magic is in our world and what it takes to exercise them."

"Okay.... The magic of Lord Swimey's world is, so to speak, a phenomenon. Just as lightning and storms wind up when the climatic conditions are met, the point is that magic and magic happen by meeting the laws created by magicians."

"Right."

"And the exercise of magic, or phenomena created by magicians, requires the construction of a surgical ceremony, the attention of the necessary magic powers, gestures, the creation of a magic formation, the chanting of spells, the use of magic objects (artifacts), and the present world and activation. A combination of their various actions, depending on the magic used, activates the magic."

To Fermenia, who answered confidently to the end, Shuiming nodded that he was right.

Let's say that it takes a spell chant and a magic formation to generate that magic, for it to be made beforehand. The magic formations that we're talking about here are the occurrence of thunderclouds, and the chanting of the spell is like triggering a discharge and the motion is responding. These include manipulation or tampering with events.

As Shuiming nodded, Fermenia's answer is correct. But...

"I have something else I need, but it's"

"Yes, you will also need to do those acts in a single magic trick, within a set amount of time, according to the established procedures."

"Exactly.... Yeah, I don't have a problem exercising magic"

Shuiming, who nodded so satisfactorily, takes the action of thinking for a little while.

"And then... mention it. The act of exercising that sorcery is usually defined as being far from common sense"

"Huh? Is the exercise of magic a far cry from common sense?

"Oh. Well, it wouldn't be a good idea for humans in this world, but I want you to remember that as a premise"

"Ha..."

To Shuiming's mention, Fermenia replies with her eyebrows whispered. In the world of the Mizumins, it's too common sense, but it's also impossible for her not to be good at it.

Humans in this world still have a shallow accumulation of knowledge, so they are not firmly separated from the laws of physics and magic. So it is common sense for them to say that in the other world, the common sense law, 'letting the apple fall to the ground when it is released from their hands', and that if they chant, magic happens.

And what we're going to say is we have to think about them separately.

"- Well, it's time to talk about the covert entropy of the subject. Here we abbreviate this as entropy, but this refers to a measure of a messy state, intersected by a certain field of 'elements trying to establish mystical laws' and 'elements trying to establish scientific laws'. And, well, this is a standard definition of magic theory."

"Ha, ha"

Fermenia is a breeze like not sure. But Shuiming keeps explaining.

"First and foremost, let's talk about 'elements that seek to establish scientific law'. I don't know about science. It's easy for you to understand, this is about invisible beings who try to cause phenomena other than 'phenomena that happen in witchcraft'."

"Invisible presence, is it"

"Right. Perhaps you could imagine the elements to say in this world generally. And as for the other 'element trying to establish a mystical law', this is as the word goes. Contrary to what I just explained, it attempts to trigger a mysterious phenomenon, including magic, supposedly invisible but present"

"Oh! So with the element! The point is, you can help me create magic and other things, right?

"It's a little different... well, it's not off big enough, okay..."

Fermenia tilts her neck in the troubled mouth of Shuiming. But Shuiming, as it were,

"The world is basically considered to be filled with 'elements that seek to establish scientific laws'. For this reason, mystical phenomena do not occur easily, and instead… when we talk so extreme, things like things fall to the ground or get hot if we rub things together"

"If the world is filled with those elements, where the hell is that 'element that seeks to establish a mystical law'?

"It exists in some parts of the world, in" mysterious places, "where phenomena that cannot be elucidated by the laws of physics occur, but this also occurs when a magician performs mysterious operations. In other words, magic creates an element of mystical law in a space full of 'elements that attempt to establish scientific law'."

"I see."

"And with every use of witchcraft, there will be more 'elements trying to establish mystical laws' in space, and naturally there will be two elements in one space. And this" element of trying to establish a mystical law "hates the other" element of trying to establish a scientific law, "and as soon as I'm born, I'm going to set up a fight with the other element."

"The elements fight each other......?

"If it's hard to imagine, just think of those two elements as invisible dwarves. That's what makes a riot. This is what I said. You're in a mess."

"dwarf...... that makes you stick when you think about it.... but what happens when that dwarf quarrels with each other?

"When the dwarves of the elements start to fight each other, to tell the big mess, phenomena other than magic don't happen properly"

"Does it make it harder for things to fall?

"You're more right about other results being more likely than less likely to happen. It generally appears in the form of failure… it can be difficult to wake up."

"So you're saying that things can sometimes not fall or fly away in the direction they're not?

"Really, to a big mess, yeah. As a matter of fact, it doesn't affect simple laws like what I said about people falling unless there's more to it, and it affects them in turn from the more advanced laws of physics..."

And Shuiming says there. It's a hassle to explain advanced physical laws to Fermenia who doesn't understand science, and it doesn't really matter here right now.

"I know somehow. So to sum up, just using witchcraft is more likely to cause disturbances in the results, right?

"Yes. And the bigger that fight, the bigger the entropy. It's an indicator of the size of a fight."

Shuiming concurs with Fermenia's answer. But for some reason she immediately made a crease between her eyebrows and tilted her neck wide.

"But if it does, won't the results remain messy all the time? Will dwarves stop fighting?

"No, that's not true. Because covert entropy is irreversible, dwarves (like that) and dwarves (like that) do not make up while fighting. But there are still plenty of dwarves around it who try to establish scientific laws - time delays (lags) exist, but reinforcements creep in. So the proportion of" elements trying to establish scientific laws "becomes larger, and the laws of physics become more stable."

Shuiming punctuates there once and starts explaining again.

"Using witchcraft, elements intersect with elements, increasing the entropy of the place. The amount of increase is so severe that it is a sorcery with great consequences. Because when the result is large, it creates a lot of 'elements that try to establish mystical laws'"

"May I petition you for a supplement on magic with great results?

"Got it. Deciding whether the result of witchcraft is large or small depends on how hard it is to do so when you seek similar results without using witchcraft. It's not that hard to start a fire, but it's not easy to shatter a big rock. That's the difference."

"Sure, the more difficult magic there is, the more procedure there is."

"Yes. That adds entropy. And magic knitted in the modern magic theory that I use is classified as magic that greatly increases entropy."

"There's a modern magic theory? Why? Lord Swimey used to say that witchcraft knitted in modern witchcraft theory has fewer procedures than witchcraft in other systems?

"Sorcery knitted in modern witchcraft theory can be exercised faster than when seeking the same results in other witchcraft, and it is also expected to improve its power with fewer procedures. Less time from exercise to activation than other sorcery. Time is limited, which means it's harder to wake up, right? As a result, the results you seek are bigger."

"Oh, I see."

And, to convince Fermenia, Shuiming speaks to sum up the story so far.

"Well, we talked about it in detail, but as I said earlier here, you just have to remember that using witchcraft means more entropy. So, this is where today's class starts."
