Waking Up
The Divine Spear
It was a Ballista Bolt that was named that.
Two meters long
20 centimeters in diameter.
A weapon made from the same spear I've been making every day.
"I have completed the launch of the Divine Spear."
I can hear Ginkei's report.
"Malkin, cover your ears and open your mouth."
"Haa..."
Malkin seems unable to predict what will happen.
Well, I think it would be better if I never used something like this.
"Accelerate in stages. Lock on target. Five seconds to impact."
And for the record, I didn't come up with the fancy name Divine Spear.
It's just something the engineers who test-fired it started calling it and it spread that way.
"Impact. Shockwave, incoming."
About four seconds after that?
I could feel the vibrations reverberating through my bones.
"Ginkei, what's the status?"
"The gas has been lifted by the wind magic in the Divine Spear, preventing it from spreading further into the principality."
"Have you been able to analyze the gas?"
"86% is carbon dioxide. There are concerns about environmental destruction, but given the current level of civilization, I think things will improve over time."
That's right.
That's what I'm worried about
Only Ginkei can determine how much carbon dioxide from the lake will leave an impact on this world.
Only Ginkei can tell how much was released.
So if Ginkei says it's okay, I'll believe it.
"Well, is this the end?"
Damage from the lake explosion was also kept to a minimum.
Malkin stopped too.
Also suppressed the invasion of the neighboring countries
"Shiro-dono..."
"What's wrong?"
But Malkin's tension doesn't go away.
"I could see it."
"What?"
"The Five Eyes have foreseen what's to come. I've never seen anything like it before!"
Perhaps it was because Malkin could see that he was going to die here.
"A monster is coming!"
"A monster? What kind of monster?"
"I don't understand! I can't see what it really is! It's cloudy and I can't see, just like Shiro-dono and Wince-dono!"
I hear Malkin's voice with his desperate pleas.
No, is it a voice?
Like a shriek
Like a scream
...A birth cry?
"Ginkei!"
"I've confirmed it, and it's in the middle of the lake."
"What's going on with the lake?"
"Most of it was blown away with the explosion."
"I see, me and Wince... is it no good?"
I can't leave Malkin and the others alone.
"Wince, can you do it?"
"As long as you come back, it's no problem, okay?"
"Then it's okay, I'm off!"
