Chapter 1686 – [A Guide for Families Who Travel Across Dimensions]
After hearing various stories from Princess Baekmyeon, I went back and consulted with the kids. Oh, Korma went back to Horizon before that.
However, he did not go back quietly, but he openly gave a lot of notice and warned Princess Baekmyeon.
“Your Majesty, if that fox tempts you again, please tell me. I will show you hell in my dreams.”
“Okay, don’t worry, stay in. I think this trip will end soon anyway.”
“Yes, I will be waiting.”
The purpose of this trip has been roughly achieved, and it can be completed only by taking care of the matters related to Princess Baekmyeon’s punishment. The end of this dimensional journey is approaching.
Time flies. How did it pass so quickly even after spending several months leisurely at Thiem’s Tower of Babel?
Anyway, back at the villa where we were staying, I told the story to Princess Baekmyeon. And Eden, who had contacted Korma separately and started a cat fight, seemed to have guessed it and nodded.
“I knew that. You don’t mess with someone who owns it!!!!”
“What if I reach an agreement with my wives?”
“That’s okay.”
“What are you both talking about?”
“Devil, are you asking because you don’t know?”
“I’m asking this knowingly.”
“That’s worse.”
“I’m sorry.”
Anyway, I had to think hard to decide how to treat Princess Baekmyeon. Although he killed a person while watching, he wasn’t the direct culprit, and he didn’t kill the person with his own hands… I wonder how much punishment he deserves.
After thinking about this and that, I finally decided. It was not me or Eden, but Mary who expressed her own opinion.
“How about barrier management?”
“What barrier?”
“Didn’t I show you something like a barrier to exorcise demons with a magic stone before? If you operate it well, it is possible to defend against the invasion of demonic beasts on a city-by-city basis.”
“Oh.”
“He seems to be quite intelligent and has a good head. Wouldn’t it be better to teach him how to use a magic circle and use it for maintenance and repair?”
If you reflect on it, it’s okay to give it a chance. Princess Baek-myeon also killed people by looking on, but if she reflects on it and wants to fix it, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give her a chance.
Of course, if she had killed innocent people directly for her own gain, she would have just killed them on the spot and worried about what happened later, but she did not cross the minimum line, so she was given the opportunity.
“If you use the magic circle I made, there won’t be any monsters attacking the city like now. Instead, management is just as important, but if a smart witch manages it, it can be done.”
“Oh… But then wouldn’t other countries be whining to do that too?”
“I guess I should do it. I might need a magic stone instead.”
“Then what about the subsequent management?”
“You have to take care of your disciples by raising them. Otherwise, you yourself will suffer a lot.”
“Honestly, I don’t think we should think about what comes after that.”
Even though it was their responsibility, the magic barrier that Mary gave them was a very good thing to use. At least here, there is no need to worry about trouble due to demonic beasts.
People move out of the city and live in the countryside because they are more afraid of taxes than tigers, but on the other hand, if they are more afraid of tigers than taxes, they will go to the city no matter what. If you think about the social changes and various other things that will occur there… Perhaps a big change will occur.
Anyway, I decided to leave that to Princess Baekmyeon. Instead, if you act clumsily and problems arise again, they will come and pester you.
You can leave surveillance to Korma. There is no problem as there will be sufficient surveillance even if only one self-immolation is left behind.
Afterward, we met with Princess Baekmyeon as a group. The blow-up from Korma must have been covered up somehow, so there wasn’t much of a fuss, and the next time I saw him, he had recovered.
“Well, what happened this time…”
“I have decided on your punishment. You asked for a chance, right? So I will give you a chance.”
“Ah, yes!!!! Thank you so much!!!! Just leave it to me!!!!!”
We, to be precise, Mary explained to Princess White Face in detail about the barrier to exterminate demonic beasts. A magic circle is created based on magic stones and a barrier that prevents magicians from approaching within a certain radius. It is a barrier that, if completed well, can save many people.
If you stand by and indirectly kill people, you should work hard to save people. In the long run, it’s much better than killing them.
“Then it will be difficult and busy…”
“It’s better than dying. Do you want to rest forever? We’re just you, George, and you can run away. In fact, there’s no one to catch you.”
“No!!!! It wasn’t that I didn’t like it!!!! Anyway, thank you for giving me the opportunity!!!!!”
Why is this a bit unsettling? Should I just throw it away and go?
However, it is a bit disappointing because it seems like the barrier that Mary had invested so much time in to exterminate demons would be meaningless. If used well, it will be beneficial here and will be a great help to civilization’s prosperity… Hmm.
Eden, who was next to him, took out a carrot instead of a whip. I was wondering if there was anything to offer over there, but it seemed like something similar to a fox monster.
“Fox, do you want to see this?”
“What is that… Hehe?!?!?”
“Oh, it’s effective?”
What Eden took out was a headband made from the tail fur of a nine-tailed fox that Yu-ran had given her as a gift at her first birthday party.
It may not seem like a big deal, but it is an item that improves the effect when using magic or other types of magic, so it is something that anyone with special abilities in that field would covet. However, what I am doing now is not giving it to you, but bringing it out to persuade you.
“Well, that’s…”
“My eldest mother is a nine-tailed fox. She has nine tails. Do you know how tall she is just by looking at this?”
“Yes, yes. Of course.”
“If you work hard, I’ll introduce you to my eldest mother later. It will be of great help, right?”
“Yes!!!! I will work hard!!!!!”
Even though she was on a different level, her senior’s card seemed to be effective. Actually, if you look at it closely, there is a difference between the nine-tailed fox, which is a monster, and the nine-tailed fox, which is a divine beast, but it is still not completely empty. As an expert in Cheonmado, regardless of whether you are a sect or a sect, can’t you give the same advice as Geumgwaokjo?
If you are Yu-ran, you will be of some help to Princess Baek-myeon. If there is a reward, I will work hard.
After saying this to Princess Baekmyeon, I will talk to King Seoho separately. I wanted to talk about the white tiger beast’s baby skin, but I decided not to. Anyway, talking about the current situation will be of no use, and if the White Face Princess incident becomes a rumor for no reason, problems will arise in the future.
Anyway, when we talked about the demon extermination barrier, King Seoho showed great interest.
“Can you prevent the intrusion of demonic beasts into a certain area?”
“Yes, that’s true. However, you need the Demonic Beast’s Magic Stone periodically, but it is very useful.”
“Huh… How did that happen?”
“It is similar to how Gapsa use the power of demonic beasts, but it was created using mathematical principles, Your Majesty. If it can be used, it will be a great blessing for the West Protectorate.”
“Make it first. If its effectiveness is proven, we will invest nationally.”
“Yes, please leave it to me.”
The West Lake country was so concentrated that its survival was in jeopardy if it did not form a relationship with me. In such a situation, if something like a demon extermination barrier comes out, of course I would be interested.
In fact, if there is a barrier to exterminate demons, it can actually prosper more than before. That part needs to be adjusted, but on the other hand, it is fortunate that it is the West Protectorate, and it has recovered and is above average, but if it is given to an ordinary country, it can immediately take over the hegemony of this land.
A unified country is good, but it is not ready yet, so we need to take time. Perhaps Princess Baekmyeon will take care of that.
“Can we make it with the national budget? That’s a piece of cake?”
“Skip in moderation.”
“I’ll just steal some things like magical by-products. Honestly, things like gold are more common than you might think.”
“Well, if I tell Zion, I think he’ll bring me a gold asteroid somewhere.”
“Isn’t that a bit excessive?”
“In my previous life, I was in Utopia and built something like a gold castle.”
“What on earth have you done!?”
“Judgment.”
“Oh.”
Anyway, Mary received national support from the West Protectorate and began to create a barrier to exterminate demonic beasts.
Since I don’t have much expertise in magic, I was curious to see how it was made, and I found that I made an alloy using gold, the bones of a demon beast, and magic stones.
“Mana… Ah, here, it is a natural keeper. Anyway, the conductivity of a natural keeper is important, so it has to be made that way. Gold is a pure metal from the beginning, so it has good conductivity, and to increase its efficiency, it uses the bones of a demon beast or a magic stone. Beggar.”
“Are you going to make a magic circle with that?”
“That’s right. Instead, it will be a bit bigger. In fact, it is possible to downsize it to some extent, but for efficiency, we added various things and the size became bigger. Honestly, there is no way a magic circle that can protect a city is small enough.”
As a result, the magic circle became tens of meters in diameter.
It’s big enough to raise a single building, but if you think the other way around, it means you can cover the capital with just this one. However, because of its size, the materials used are quite expensive, so I am worried about the material cost.
“There’s no need for us to worry, right? Someone in need will somehow save money to make it.”
“That’s right.”
Afterward, place the magic stone on the completed magic circle. There are about a dozen of them, but that’s the level you get when you kill 15 monsters, so there’s no problem.
When you raise the magic stone, the effect is immediately apparent. In an instant, a visible curtain began to spread out from the magic circle. And the tent protected the city in the form of a dome surrounding the central sea.
“But is there a need to make it look like that? Isn’t it a waste of energy?”
“That’s because the visual effect is better. It’s safer to be visible than to be invisible, and if you’re chased by a demonic beast, wouldn’t you think that you can survive if you go inside? It’s better to clearly show the range than an ambiguous line.”
“That’s right.”
“And it’s not as wasteful as you might think. All you have to do is draw a few more lines and manipulate the refraction of light.”
The huge dome-shaped curtain that was visible to the eye caused quite a stir. Since I have been staying at the palace for a while, I don’t know about the rumors outside, but at least within the palace, many opinions have been expressed about this incident.
Moreover, since a lot of money was spent… No matter how much alloy it contains, there are a lot of people who are dissatisfied with spending a lot of money in a bad situation.
Even if that wasn’t the case, there were people who saw that he was a commoner but became successful, and even if not openly, they subtly interfered with him. Fortunately, thanks to the secretary, no one bothered Mary and Eden due to virginity issues.
The magic circle to exorcise the demonic beast appears, and after that, it is proof. Eden decided to go out with her secretary and show it off.
“I’ll bring a suitable demon beast and test it.”
“Now that I think about it, Seomu, you’re a middle-aged bastard with a blockbuster?! No, if you’re a newbie, you need to improve your specs first. Why are you taking care of your daughter first?!”
Hee!!!!!”
“Is the secretary at a young level?”
“They say Princess Baekmyeon has 4 abilities, so even if she’s good at the 2 general affairs skills, she’s still a mid-level person.”
“I don’t think there are many talented kids.”
“Probably not much.”
If you look at it, the storm birds and sea dragons you’ve heard about will be at least at the level of the White-faced Princess. There must be many other holy beasts and demonic beasts… I think the humans here are able to build a country and live well.
Anyway, Eden, who went out with Secretary, brought a bear-like beast to Jungyang.
“Kuhuhhh!!!”
“Come on!!! Go in!!! Go in there!!!!”
The soldiers on the wall were looking at what was going on and were scared. However, no matter how hard Eden tried to push it inside the curtain, the bear beast never got beyond the curtain.
After testing the demon-fighting barrier for a while, the bear demon beast was finally captured and disposed of. If you look at it, it’s like catching and killing it while using it in an experiment, but that bear beast is also a man who ate people, so there’s no reason to feel sorry for him.
Afterward, when the demon-repelling barrier was proven to be effective, it received several positive responses. The White Tiger Demonic Beast was able to rebuild the ruined West Tiger Kingdom.
“It’s a bit unpleasant, but once you get used to it, it’s bearable.”
“It doesn’t work on demonic beasts with about 4 abilities.”
“But I don’t think I’ll force you to come in if there’s no good reason.”
“Hey, fox. Come this way. I’ll hand over the handover.”
“Ah, yes!!!!”
Mary separately informed Princess Baekmyeon about the barrier.
First, you can record things like the alloy ratio separately and have them make it, but making the magic circle itself is a different problem. Because just making it as is doing not create a magic circle.
We need someone who can see, calculate, and adjust the flow of energy, so White Face Princess is perfect for that. She’ll probably take care of the rest on her own.
“Spanking…!!!!”
“Honestly, that’s true.”
And after handing over for a few days, the time has come for our trip to come to an end.
I looked around, experienced the culture here, and caught the white tiger beast that was my goal. You should take the white tiger beast’s skin as a souvenir.
There are sturdy items such as white tiger beast leather in dimensional civilizations, but it is still important to obtain them locally. The souvenirs you buy at the airport and the souvenirs you buy locally can’t possibly be the same, right? Even if the product is the same, the memories it contains are different.
Hee!!!”
“You want to go too? Well, wouldn’t it be better for you to stay here?”
“Dad, I’m against taking that guy. Even if Eden has seen you for a thousand years, if you get married, he’ll pretend not to know.”
“Then I just have to make a contract. If you make a contract to be my summon, I will call you often, if not every day.”
“Purrrr!!!!”
Secretary I decided to just sign a contract with this guy. I don’t know when or if the day will come when this guy will start hating Eden, but at least when that time comes, if I don’t summon him, it’s over.
Ah, but when that time comes, I think Eden will beat up her boyfriend and the secretary. Just thinking about it makes me so mad.
“But I don’t know when the next time will be, but anyway, awaken with useful abilities. I’ll be nervous if you awaken with something strange again.”
Hee!!!!!”
“You said you understand for now?”
… I’m really anxious. Furthermore, I wonder if I can trust that colt.
