I heard that some of the magical tools Massita made were very dangerous. Perhaps that is why Massita never took on any apprentices during his lifetime, and never passed on his skills to anyone.
A lone genius. The one and only. What a legend.
“Among Massita’s magical tools, there was one that was not dangerous and everyone around the world wanted it.” (Merida)
“That’s …….” (Shin)
“Yes, a citizen’s certificate. Massita, who until then had been concerned that the magical tools he was creating might endanger the world, decided to accept a large number of requests from countries and cities all over the world because he had finally made an invention that would benefit the world.” (Merida)
”Citizenship cards are managed by the basic state, so there’s no need to worry about upsetting the economic balance.” (Merida)
“But while Massita was alive, the number of human beings were constantly increasing, even after his death. He was worried about that, so he created something not dangerous at all.” (Merida)
“Something?” (Shin)
“It’s an automatic magic grantor on your Citizen’s ID card.” (Merida)
“An automatic magic grantor?” (Shin)
What the hell is that? Two hundred years ago! This is a little bit of over-technology!
“The mass-production and distribution of these automatic grantors to various countries has meant that citizenship cards are still being produced today. But in the end, the automatic magic-granting device was kept secret and died, so the technology is still unknown to this day.” (Merida)
“But then, if it should break, ……” (Shin)
“I hear it has been broken or destroyed several times in the past and later stolen. In those cases, you have to go to a neighboring city to make a citizen’s ID card, so in cities where the automatic magic granting device for citizen’s ID cards is broken, it takes time to issue a new one.” (Merida)
I didn’t know there was such a story about citizen ID cards. ……
“Did you know Sicily?” (Shin)
‘No, this is the first time I’ve heard of ……. I mean, I was told that none of Massita’s magical artifacts were left, so ……” (Sicily)
“I’ve read about it in books too. I had no idea it was so close to home.” (Shin)
The inventor of the citizen’s ID card that even Sicily did not know about.
I guess I’m not the only one who grew up deep in the mountains who didn’t know about it, but it’s a generally unknown story.
“But still, grandma, how do you know such a story?” (Shin)
“I used to be a mage, remember? It’s only natural to look into the genius mages of the past.” (Merida)
“I had a hard time. I’m not afraid to go to war-torn countries where there’s a little bit of Massita left in the world. …… Oh, no! War is not going to stop me from exploring!” (Merida)
Grandma, what’s wartime? (Shin)
“The country where Massita was born was being invaded by the Empire at the time. It was in the middle of a war.” (Merida)
”You went all the way to a country at war! Outrageous as ever.” (Merida)
And for some reason, Sicily giggles when she hears this story.
” What’s wrong? Sicily.” (Shin)
“No,” she said. “Your grandmother told me once that Mr. Shin looks just like your grandfather, even though they are not related by blood.” (Sicily)
“Yes?” (Shin)
“I’m thinking, from what she just said, that Shin and your grandmother are a lot more alike.” (Sicily)
“Similar?” (Shin)
“Where?” (Merida)
“I like her inquisitiveness and her willingness to go ahead even in the middle of a war. I guess Shin-kun grew up watching the two of you.” (Sicily)
She’s looking at me and my grandma with a kind of smiling eyes.
What the hell, that’s embarrassing.
“What’s the matter, we’re all alike in ways I don’t want us to be.” (Merida)
“Ho-ho-ho, you’re not being honest.”
Yes!
No. ……
Grandma is embarrassed.
The mensch that hides her embarrassment is very powerful.
She made Grandpa help out quickly.
“Nnnn! Well, that’s why I don’t know the details of the citizen’s ID card, because it was made with the automatic magic granting device.” (Merlin)
“I didn’t realize that.”
Well, it’s not that I really wanted to solve the mystery of the citizen ID card.
I was just curious, and now I know what a citizen’s ID card is. You haven’t been doing magic grants at Bean’s workshop lately, have you?”
“Yes,” he said. If I had to do it all by myself, no matter how much time I had, it wouldn’t be enough.
I wanted to avoid that, so I invented a circuit that can produce the same effect in this world’s language as it does in mine.
Thanks to this, the Bean Workshop is able to do its magic without me.
“That’s all right. After I invented the circuit, the magic that could only be given by Shin became available to other people. And everyone has become more inventive. This is a great thing. You should be proud of this.”
Oh, I was praised by my grandma, who rarely praises me.
I felt somewhat embarrassed and looked down at my citizen’s ID card.
I looked at the thing that made me look at it differently than I had before.
I had no idea that something so familiar to me had been made by a genius magician from a fairy tale.
If that’s the case, I’ve never checked it out before, but maybe I should check it out.
Maybe we’ll catch a glimpse of a legendary technique.
As I stared at the citizen’s ID card with this thought in my mind, my grandma seemed to get suspicious.
“Shin. You’re …….”
“What?”
“Master Shin, there’s a Master Miranda from the Academy of Knighthood here to see you.”
Just as grandma was about to get an inkling of what was going on, the head maid, Marieka, came to inform her of the visitor.
Oh, yes, yes, yes. Please let me through.
Yes, sir.
Miranda? The girl who claims to be Michelle’s apprentice?”
Apparently, I was able to successfully distract Grandma.
I don’t know what she wanted, but Miranda paid me a visit at a nice time.
As I was waiting in the living room, Miranda came into the living room with one of the maids.
She said, “Oh, Mr. Merlin, Ms. Merida. I am very sorry for this unexpected visit today.”
Ho-ho-ho, friends of Shin and Sicily-san, shouldn’t need to worry about these things.”
That’s right. By the way, what’s the matter with you today?”
Ah! I almost forgot my main point in greeting you both!
Miranda then shifted her gaze from Grandpa and Grandma, who was greeting her, to me.
The expression on her face was as angry as if she was …… prajna, a different person from the cheerful expression she had just shown to Grandpa and Grandma.
I was just told by Wangjo that I’m to be the instructor of the Allied Forces!
Oh, you’ve already called, Uncle Dis, you work fast.”
I just finished a meeting a few minutes ago and you already contacted me.
‘You work fast, not ……! The Allied Forces! I’m an official soldier! Why am I, a student and not yet a knight, the instructor?
Why? …… because it’s just me, Tony, and Miranda using the vibrating sword.
They’re all students!
I’m not going to teach you swordsmanship. We’re the ones who are going to teach you swordsmanship.
