Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

Chapter 349.2: Sytry's Strategy ②

What I must avoid in this situation is for Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei) to quit. If that happens, there is nothing I can do, even if Starlight (Hoshi no Serai) remains. In particular, Infinite Variety's (Senpen Banka) cooperation is essential. I look at everyone in turn and say this with as much dignity as I can muster.

Me too I am still the Princess of Yggdra, and although I don't have that much combat experience with Miles' help, I will be able to fight even against the Phantoms from the Temple of Origin. Ruin will most likely also fight alongside me when she wakes up. (Serene)

Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei) came here to help their friends. However, there is no need to consider which is easier between lifting Shero's curse or stopping the World Tree from going out of control. Seeing my expression, Sytry gives a small smile.

Fu You don't have to be so worried, we won't quit now. Not until Cry-san decides to retreat, butUno-san, do you have an understanding of the status of the earth's veins? (Sytry)

Yes. It's a rough sketch, but I think we were able to check the areas where the veins intersect with each otheeer. There shouldn't be any major oversiiights. After all, it's better to do the investigation with people rather than with the dog's chains, riiight. (Uno)

Uno spreads out a map of the surrounding area. There are now many red lines drawn on the map centered around the World Tree. It must have been made by checking Liz and the others, who were walking in the forest, with the mirror of reality.

Sytry receives it and compares it with the map that was hidden in Yggdra's archive that I handed over.

It also roughly matches the 500-year-old map of the earth's vein that Serene-san gave me. (Sytry)

We've only gone around once, so I think I've been able to draw the main earth's veins, but I can't guarantee iiit. I think I'll be able to make a more accurate map if we go around a few more times thooo'. (Uno)

I don't know anything about the principles or necessary conditions needed for the Mana Materials Stirring Device. Although Yggdra may be said to be superior with this kind of research, the people of Yggdra have never thought of something so drastic as trying to move the earth's veins.

Sytry thinks for a few seconds, then shakes her head.

No. For now, let's use this data to calculate the installation location. We have been given the opportunity to check the veracity of this map. If Onee-chan and the others felt a gaze, there is not much time left. Serene-san, please give us your opinion. The fate of the world will be determined by whether this goes well or not. (Sytry)

Once again, we receive an explanation about the device that will be the key to this operation.

Mana Materials Stirring Device.

As its name suggests, it seems to be a device that stirs the flow of Mana Materials.

Sytry compared the earth's veins to rivers, the Mana Materials to water, and the device to an obstacle. The Mana Material Stirring Devices can be used to disrupt the flow of water and collect more water than would normally be stored in one place. Mana Materials do not flow as smoothly as water, and there are some differences between the nature of the earth's veins and the device, but the important thing here is that the devices originally interfered with the smooth flow of Mana Materials and caused it to flow in one place, strengthening a Treasure Shrine by increasing the amount of Mana Materials.

Sytry Smart is using the nature of Mana Materials and her devices to branch out the rivers called earth's veins. It is an unprecedented operation that is only theoretically possible.

The earth's veins are paths for Mana Materials. Then, if we can artificially create a place for Mana Materials to pass through, it should be safe to call it an earth's vein. Just like opening up a river and branching it to another place (Sytry)

Yggdra uses the Mana Materials that flow through the earth's veins to activate various spells. The powerful barrier surrounding Yggdra and the construction of the Drifting Road of the Divine Tree are also due to this power. Compared to the human world, which restricts research on Mana Materials, our technology is probably more advanced.

I have heard about the general functions of the Mana Materials Stirring Device. Even from my point of view, the strategy Sytry set up is not impossible, I think. But.

"Well, I strengthen a Treasure Shrine, but I have never weakened one. But it should definitely be possible. In theory!! (Sytry)

Sytry clenches her fist and speaks passionately.

Lucia, who continued to fight against the hopelessly powerful Finis, was also amazing, but Sytry Smart is raising the bar and doing something even more out of this world. After all, in this situation where the end of the world is imminent, she is trying to use a device she has never tried before.

Then, I understand why she hasn't explained the details of the operation until now.

I am sure she was waiting until we could no longer back out.

She kept saying that it was theoretical. This is unquestionably an experiment. Moreover, it is very difficult to find a place to install the devices. Sytry said that it should be installed in the appropriate location, but it is doubtful that a suitable location even exists.

The structure of the earth's veins varies from place to place. In other words, the location of the device can only be based on a rough theory, and it is impossible to know whether it will work properly until it is activated.

I agreed with the plan, but I didn't expect it to involve so many uncertainties. And even if it is an emergency, Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), who (probably) grasped this and left everything to Sytry, also has nerves of steel.

In front of me, whose face is stiff, Sytry speaks forcefully, as if trying to convince herself.

Please believe in me! Theoretically, we can do it! (Sytry)

Thanks for reading! Even the end of the world is just another experiment time for Sytry. But hey, it's just a theory, a Strange Grief Theory!
