: Celestial Magic: Model Garden (3)
Whioooo!!
The shape of a long-necked divine beast with fluttering white feathers.
A streamlined long-haired species wearing pure white armor silently looks down at the ground with transparent blue eyes.
It looks as graceful as swimming above the clouds, waving its fins with its entire body in soft curves.
It is so large that it fills the entire research building located in the basement of the cartel headquarters.
“I saw that once before in a ritual space.”
Lennok crossed his arms as he looked at Clarice Richellen, who had descended in his original form.
“It seems like it’s gotten a lot bigger than it was then.”
“Excuse me.”
When Clarice first came to Lennok’s Magic Tower with the elixir.
Lennok had dragged her into the ritual space and unintentionally witnessed her body.
The appearance of Jangsaengjong, who appeared in the ceremonial space wearing mysterious clouds and feathers at the time, was not much different from its appearance now.
The size itself feels much larger than what was encountered in the ritual space.
Even the appearance that appeared in the conscious space was arbitrarily reduced in size, and was the real body taking on such a gigantic shape?
Ujijik...!!
While the trampled alloy container beneath Clarisse’s massive body let out a silent scream.
Oliveira looked up at the pure white long-lived bell and said sarcastically.
[You are telling a lie without paying attention to the subject, which has an overwhelmingly gigantic shape compared to other Jangsaeng species.]
“....”
[I deliberately emptied this research building so that your needlessly heavy and large body can lie down. I did it for you, but as a divine beast who has lived for a long time, he is extremely inconsiderate.]
“Maze.”
Clarice said with a sigh.
“It’s no use trying to make me angry on purpose. “My eternal life organ does not work with such stimulation.”
[....]
“Even if you don’t go that far, there is no problem in understanding the grimoire. “I took a quick look and saw that the entire grimoire had already been completely translated.”
Clarisse slowly moved her body and slid forward as if floating, then shook her head and the grimoire floated in the air according to her gesture.
Clarisse, who had manipulated and opened the astral magic book without directly touching it, spoke with a curious look.
“Not only does it translate, but it also kindly provides footnotes for difficult expressions or words. If things continue like this, there won’t be a big problem teaching the two of you the techniques of miniature gardening.”
“Footnotes?”
“yes. Each footnote is titled Skull Quiz and has a simple question...” “
....”
“Rather than a direct explanation, it uses indirect metaphors and questions to guide the reader to understand the correct answer.”
A light of admiration that could not be hidden lingered in the deep eyes of Shinsu as he looked down at the grimoire.
“The person who translated this grimoire has a very complete understanding of the essence of celestial magic. “Through the translation and footnotes, we are informed that the technique of a model garden itself is a kind of indirect [adjustment].”
“Are you saying that the technique itself is specialized for indirect manipulation rather than direct manipulation of phenomena?”
The power of peeking at the results and expressing them indirectly, rather than producing results directly like astrology or tarot.
Lennok, who understood Clarisse’s explanation, immediately asked.
“Then how can we use astral magic to find the way to Kundara?”
“That’s because the curtain surrounding the central city is a star ceremonial dress made using the shadow cast on the back of a star.”
“...the back side of a star?”
“As long as the sun shines on this star, there will always be shadow behind it. “The curtain is a border created to surround the central city, borrowing that semi-permanent concept.”
Just as Lennok was questioning the completely unexpected explanation, Clarisse responded by raising her magic power.
“Therefore, in order to head to the outer city hidden behind the veil, you literally have to twist the star’s orbit for a moment.”
“...”
“But actually changing the orbital period is impossible even for a transcendental person, so an expedient called a model garden is needed.”
The grimoire of celestial magic slowly floated above Clarice’s open hands.
As soon as Clarice closed her eyes and concentrated her mind, the pages of the wide-open grimoire began to turn at an incredible speed.
A fierce light erupts from inside the page, instantly enveloping the control room and flashing.
Gooooo...!
While Lennok and Oliveira were looking at the scene, Clarisse, without hesitation, straightened out her thoughts towards the celestial sphere.
It captures the movement of stars rising in the celestial sky and moves them to change their positions.
Although it does not actually change the constellations in the night sky, it indirectly does this by moving the celestial sphere in the model garden.
Broke! Broken!!
A model garden built using astronomical techniques.
The act of assimilating and deceiving changes in the celestial sphere that occurred in a miniature garden as if they occurred in reality.
This is because Lennok was also able to guess what kind of supplies were needed to break down the boundary between model and reality even for a moment.
“Surely, in order to deceive the curtain... do we have to set up a real curtain inside the model garden?”
[Yes.]
Oliveira nodded with her arms crossed.
[By placing fragments of the curtain inside the miniature garden, they are deceiving the curtain into thinking that what is happening in the garden is real.]
“....”
[Of course, that alone cannot mislead the entire curtain. However, our goal is not to break through the veil and head to Arsnova.]
“It is enough to break through the veil and find the location of the hidden Kundara....”
Only then did Lennok wonder why Oliveira was in Nox Biblio. I understand that you were trying to rent a celestial technique.
The astronomical technique stored in the dark library does not manipulate the real sky, but creates a model garden and uses the symbol of the night sky.
If you insert a catalyst connected to reality into the model garden and synchronize it, you can project similar results into reality, even if only for a moment.
Temporarily opening a gap in the nearly inviolable veil and finding the way to Kundara through the experience of Clarice, a long-lived servant.
“We had to obtain a fragment of the veil that could be found inside the miniature garden and go to Kundara to avoid the eyes of the Spell Federation.”
[I brought you and this long-lived species together because we need to discuss that matter.]
Oliviara tilted her head as she said that.
[As Nupsaek said, the veil is not an ordinary magic, but a conceptual barrier that exists using the shadow of the star as a medium... It is an item that has been directly maintained by the highest-ranking Jangsaengjong who has lived for hundreds of years.]
“....”
[It is impossible to break the curtain and obtain the fragments in the first place, and it is not clear whether it will function as a complete catalyst within the model garden.]
Enter Nox Biblio . Celestial Magic: There is no way that Oliveira did not think of this problem when he rented the model garden.
Rather, the fact that she is giving this explanation now may be possible because she already has a solution or method due to her nature.
There were many interesting parts about the explanation of the origin of the veil and the method of manipulating the celestial magic, but the most important part was different.
[I’m being honest. I was thinking that you might not be able to retrieve the celestial spell from the Dark Library.]
“....”
[Even if you borrowed the spell, I thought it would take quite a bit of time to decipher it. However, we were able to save time thanks to you finishing the translation of the grimoire inside the library.]
Oliveira waved her hand lazily.
[The only thing left is to obtain the fragments of the veil and assimilate them into the model garden as I explained to you.]
“The intermediate process ended sooner than expected, so I am not ready for the task of rescuing the fragments of the veil yet.”
The fact that Oliveira was also taking into account that it would take time to interpret the Celestial Art: Model Garden.
The fact that Lennok significantly reduced time through translation is also a positive sign for the plan.
However, because what Lennok accomplished greatly exceeded Oliveira’s expectations, the plan to obtain the fragments of the veil itself was not yet ready.
“But if there was no way, you wouldn’t have even brought it up with me.”
“yes. “I can guess what Oliveira is thinking.”
Clarice said, tilting her neck slightly.
“Maybe there is a way at the first gate.”
“The first gate?”
“It is one of the very few passages through which you can enter the interior of the curtain surrounding the central city.”
Clarisse explained.
The huge divine beast bent its neck and looked down at Lennok with its blue eyes.
“As we are splitting the curtain at the gateway and forcibly opening the crack, we will be able to obtain fragments of the curtain deep within the gateway.”
“....”
Lennok also knows the first gate well.
The first passage leading into the outermost part of the tent.
It is one of the key points so important that even on the central front, a war broke out over ownership of the gate.
[After several struggles after the Blader Mage Tower, which originally guarded the first gate, stepped down, the Spell Federation is currently occupying that position.]
Oliveira took over and explained.
[The Alliance’s Conjugation Master has taken over the role of the gateway manager and remains in that position.]
“...If he is the Conjugation Master, then of course.”
I’m sure I’ve heard his name before.
As Lennok unconsciously reacted to that fact, Oliveira said with interest.
[It seems you know about him too. It is not strange, since the great sorcerers of the alliance are very famous monsters.]
“....”
[This monster is currently considered one of the most powerful forces in the alliance. There were times when its true value was clearly revealed in the war against the religious order. Above all...]
I felt as if Oliveira’s eyes were strangely widening as she looked at Lennoc through the veil.
[He is also a being who killed an apostle like you and Cheonbeon and received the title of apostle slayer. It must be very nice to see him.]
