「Still, people of the ancient civilizations were strange.」
「Right? They built a city in a place that had an S rank dungeon and strong monsters living within it.」
For the ti being, I returned to the Sanctuary workshop, and I polished a plan for a magic device that would support the control unit of the Sky Island together with Laeva.
What Laeva and I were thinking was to first improve the Sky Island’s floats and barriers, and take the amount of magic power used for regulating the climate from the atmosphere. We continued to add more and more ideas in.
「Even so, this is a frighteningly efficient mana collection device. Fortunately, the Sky Island didn’t stall in one place and kept moving.」
「You got that right. As the surrounding mana grows thinner, the resulting negative intake and output accelerates.」
「As part of the plan, will we prepare auxiliary magic crystals?」
「Well, simply put, it’d be like that.」
As per usual, we will be transmuting several giant crystals, but that alone wasn’t enough this ti.
「For now, we’ll combine it with the usual magic crystals, and it must be sothing that could be replenished by just Valkan-san and his tribe.」
「It would be great if the intake and output balances out in the end……」
「It might not be possible imdiately. It would be great if we co up with an idea though.」
Preparing several magic crystals requires gathering materials, but that isn’t much of a problem. The problem is that when it’s just the Aligerous Tribe by themselves, replenishing the magic power would be difficult. Sophia and I could replenish a day’s worth of magic power by ourselves, but I’d like to avoid constraining everyone from the Aligerous Tribe to replenishing the magic power.
「How about we structure it so it is possible to set magic stones to replenish the magic crystals with magic power?」
「I see, the Sky Island is connected to the base in the Demon Continent, so if they use that to hunt monsters, they would be able to secure magic stones.」
「Yup, subjugating monster carries so risk, but the warriors that we trained could possibly stock up on tons of magic stones.」
There was so risk to leaving the Gate connecting the Sky Island to the Demon Continent base, but we had to think about the situation after we leave.
From my discussion with Laeva, we decided to transmute large magic crystals and a magic device that is capable of replenishing the magic crystal’s magic power using various sizes of magic stones.
In front of our usual mbers gathered in the living room of the Sanctuary mansion, we announced our plan to stabilize the Sky Island.
「I would like to ask for everyone to help but,」
「We simply support you with what you want to accomplish, Takumi-sama. Please tell us whatever it is.」
「Yup, it’s just as Sophia-san said. Don’t be so reserved, Takumi-sama.」
「We will follow your heart’s desires, Master.」
Sophia, Maria, and Marnie would never say no to , so it was just confirmation.
「What do you want to do? Lulu and I have gotten to know more people in the Aligerous Tribe, so I’ve got no complaints with helping out.」
「Lulu will help too, nya.」
Akane had recently been sneaky with the Elven Princess Mimir, but she was close with Berkut too, so she said she would help out if it’s for the benefit of the Aligerous Tribe.
「Mhmm, first off, I think I’ve talked about prioritizing the stability of the Sky Island, but I want to prepare backup giant magic crystals for the dungeon cores.」
「So we would like high purity magic stones that are as large as possible for that reason.」
Laeva unrolled the blueprint, and began explaining the magic device that would link the 1m magic crystals to the dungeon core.
「Large, high purity magic stones… you plan to hunt dragon types?」
Akane’s face cramped as she was shocked by the dinsions of the magic crystals drawn on the blueprint.
「As expected, Akane. Actually, Queen Fraal told that there were dragon-type dungeons.」
「Wha! You’re serious?」
Since I needed a ton of magic stones, I asked Queen Fraal for a suitable dungeon. Apparently, there was a very difficult dungeon where dragon species appeared in great numbers.
From Lizardn who were not much different to lizards, Wyverns, Earth Dragons, Thunder Dragons, and even Undead Bone Dragons Monsters appear. And if we reach the deepest part, an Ancient Dragon that would be too much to handle makes its appearance. Well, we aren’t going that far in though.
「Magic stones as large as they could be are much more efficient for transmuting, after all.」
Incidentally, if we train the Aligerous Tribe on the shallow floors, securing magic stones would beco a simple task to them.
「Haa, fine I get it. Still, safety first.」
「Of course.」
「Master, that seems fun.」
Kaede couldn’t help but find the thought of fighting dragons fun.
Our full party and several of the Aligerous Tribe will go dungeon diving, while the remaining tribesn would be asked to thin out the monsters left on the Sky Island.
