I head to the studio of my mother Anna to greet her.
Lately, she has closed herself in the studio, drawing her designs. She says it's much more interesting to see her designs come out looking exactly the same as her own.
"Gu-chan, wait for me. I am going to make tea"
I hurriedly moved in the right to block the way as she gave me a affectionate hug as usual and was about to go to kitchen,
"No mother, I have an errand I must do by any means now"
"You just said Gu-chan and you're not even showing yourself much lately"
my mother began to sulk.
"I will definitely come to visit you next Sunday. I promise"
I said and somehow persuaded her.
"Anna, is there food?"
A young girl, Dorahachi, who was sleeping on the bed at the back of the room woke up while rubbing her eyes and being drawn by her, Sheena and Haku began to wake up as well. Seems like they were taking an afternoon nap.
After her illness was cured completely, Shirohime built a town for the spirit tribe near the [Accord]. She has been very busy everyday as the mayor of the town, and there's not enough time to take care of Haku properly. That being the case, Haku has been together with Sheena and Dorahachi all the time.
"There's still time for dinner. That's right, why don't I make some snacks?"
As she patted the head of Dorahachi who approached with a leisure voice,
"At least wait to eat some snacks before returning"
She gave me the order saying she will not listen to any objection, put on the apron and left the room.
"It's snacks, it's snacks, oh isn't it snacks!
"Its not S~nacks, its not S~nacks, if it's not snacks yay~"
"Waaah, yay"
"Delicious snacks~"
I resigned myself to it as I heard the mysterious humming of Dorahachi and Went down to the kitchen.
I tossed the glove to him and he put it with his hand trembling and instilled Mana in it.
Flames emit out from his palm. Those flames first form a circle, then a line and then a letter.
"Amazing...... "
Researchers exclaimed, somehow managed to put thier amazement in words.
I slowly looked at everyone and announced what I have been craving for always,
"Ladies and gentleman, we have opened the door to the rune spell here and now!"
The next moment after I said that, the room was drowned in the tempest like cheers.
Unsurprisingly, they held the banquet from the broad daylight time, and I was sipping tea with Leroy in one corner of the room.
"But, how should we move? We can't sell them as it's now"
Leroy put the mug of beer on the table and asked me what was our biggest concern recently.
"Hmm, indeed. It's a bit too strong to appear in public."
I have temporarily patented the technique of extraction of magic ore from magic stone in the commercial guild. While doing so, I also consulted Rainer, and agreed to carefully look at the timing before announcing.
Taking the importance of magic ore in this world, I'm sure it will cause a magnificent chaos undoubtedly when we announce it. I can perceive everyone would begin to hoard magic stones frantically. I very well know the fate of humans who are blinded by greed. It's quite possible they will turn blind eye to science and technology and try to hoard them if handled poorly, just like the time of the gold rush. And in this chaos that will ensue, they may also aim at the intellectual creatures resembling monsters in the name of hunting. That's not something I desire.
Furthermore, the technique we have developed this time is revolutionary enough to the point it will change the development of magic stone from basic. If we announce it now, what awaits us will be chaos.
"I'm satisfied with achieving its development. I will leave the how to handle the rest to you, Grey"
"I understood. However, our end goal at best is the fusion of science and sorcery. Let's proceed with the research only"
"Yosh. Just what I want. So, what are you planning to do next?"
"Let's see, my next step is to see if it's possible to control the magic tool with the help of scientific equipment"
"Control huh. Interesting. Tell me more in detail."
Leroy's look on his eyes changed from being drunk to sparkling.
"That's一一"
I also moistened myself with hot tea, but uttered the most devious words.
