The Great War of Rhodesia

17. Magic Technology I

"But speaking of the 'tribal that happened in this era', what does Alta Larma mean for bad?" nata asked as they were talking over dinner with Moor and the other party.

"They never said it. But it could be, because the time is right," replied Moor after putting his drinking glass.

"Can you tell me about them again, Mr. Moor. There may be clues left by our descendants about how we will deal with Alta Larma later," Nata then asked politely.

"They spoke nothing but about Runic knowledge and Magic Formations. Because actually their main goal was to warn us of the coming war between the clans and what Miss Stellar should do to Alta Larma," Moor replied once again disappointing Nata.

"Oh, as it turned out," Nata responded with a slight lethargy. "Means we will try to check out the Runic and Magic Formation first. Then just looking for a way to deal with Alta Larma afterwards," he continued.

"Tomorrow we will prepare everything" said Istar later.

"But is it okay for you to give us that knowledge?" Suddenly Aksa interrupted with a question. Which may also be a question that others want to ask.

Moor seemed to smile kindly before answering. "First of all this knowledge of Runic is not our knowledge. We were only asked to keep it by your descendants."

"Oh, really?" Aksa looked surprised. It doesn't change anything else.

"Then why are you so trusting and willing to follow their orders, Mr Moor?" ask Nata later.

"Because we, the Azuar clan, owe them a lot" said the Elf man quite briefly but seemed to answer about many things.

"Listening to your words, it seems like our descendants are having a pretty fun adventure" Aksa said later.

Which only the Moors responded by smiling in silence.

The next morning Istar delivered several scrolls and books thick enough for Aksa and Nata to study. And since they were all written in ancient Elven writings, it was practically Aksa alone who could read them. Besides the Elves of course.

And it was not until lunchtime that Aksa had finished reading all the books and scrolls. And after lunch he began to rewrite to translate everything he had read in a more commonly used language.

.

"So how, Aks?" Nata asks as he visits Aksa in the reading room before dinner.

Together in the room were Rafa, Luque, and Val who helped Aksa to explain the terms or properties of the Soul Stream that he did not understand during the translation process.

"Yes, after doing the translation of the intent and also the function based on the Soul Stream, I can already deduce that this is Magic Technology," Aksa replied while handing over a wide enough paper scroll to Nata.

Inside the scroll is drawn Runic pattern and graffiti and explanatory writing from Aksa.

Nata opened it and started reading the contents. "A little while." he said later. "Isn't this way of working similar to an electronic circuit? What else is this part. Doesn't it work like a transistor?"

"really. The material used to draw with this arrangement when flowed Soul Stream, it will be an inhibitor in a certain capacity," Aksa replied with an explanation.

"And when added to some other drawings with materials such as silver and copper, it will store the Soul Stream for some time."

"It wants to be seen like anything, the fall is a dead computing, empty-fill," said Nata who was still seriously staring at the scroll on the table in front of him.

"Yes, one hundred percent. This is binary code." Aksa answered.

"It is fitting that the Magic Formation is classified as an active magic equipment that can move on its own without the help of people. Because everything is governed by this circuit." Nata spoke again.

"Processor?" asked Rafa from next to Aksa.

"Areally who wrote the scrolls and the books?" Nata looked curious.

"Konan said Runic knowledge was created by the Leafcla Civilization. But there has never been any evidence or historical record about it. Only, its existence had existed since the first time. At the time of the Leafcla Civilization." Suddenly Solas appears from the entrance along with Yvvone and Kanna.

"Where is this civilization now?" Nata asked back.

"So, no one knows. All records of the Leafcla civilization are lost with the times. And the myth says their civilization and the whole city and its citizens vanished in just one night." This time Kanna answered.

"Only the Oracle has lived since the first era. Who may know about the truth" Yvvone added.

"That means a dead end" Aksa replied.

"And with the rise of the Pharos civilization, that knowledge began to be abandoned. And there aren't many scrolls and books about Runic knowledge left." Solas spoke again after he was next to Nata to read Aksa's scroll.

"Maybe the knowledge stored in this place is the only thing left. Because even the Great Library of the Brafie Clan alone did not have it," continued the reddish-yellow-haired Elf.

"Hm.so therefore Magic Formations and active magic equipment have similar methods" Nata said later.

"really. Everything is made by imitating the pattern of rules in Runic writing. Even the method used by the Elves" Val confirmed.

"That explains why there is no significant development and variation of Magic Formations. Because they do not really understand why the Soul Aliaran must be detained and stored in the symbols," said Aksa added.

"I think so." Nata nodded in understanding. "So if the pattern is really similar to Electric Circuits, it means that we can make various types of automatic equipment based on this knowledge."

"That's what I was thinking yesterday. With this we can create a magic Mecha" Aksa said.

"Just make a Magic Machine or a Muscular Magic Protector first. Don't be that weird." Nata immediately prevented the wishes of his best friend.

"The strange one? It makes sense, magic-powered armor in the wizarding world." Aksa seemed unwilling to lose the argument.

"Yes, yeah, it's up to you. But after you make a much more important piece of equipment first," said Nata, who would not extend his debate with Aksa.

"You don't have to worry" Aksa replied quickly. "After that, I'll make a Mecha that can turn into a plane. Uh, don't-don't. Turned into animals only. Much cooler," his chatter then that was not ignored by Nata.

While Kanna is seen trying to understand all of Aksa's words, while Solas and Yvvone look curious and very interested in the scroll made by the young man.

-

A day later, along with the rest of Yvvone's entourage, Aksa asks Lily to bring her equipment that she lives on in the Airship. Then ask Yvvone to prepare some materials for use as an experiment.

-

Meanwhile outside the Azuar Clan Forest, precisely in the northern mainland, the Elbrasta kingdom had begun to move its troops to attack the Estrinx kingdom.

But it seems that the Estrinx party has made preparations, until they managed to block the Elbrasta troops through the border region.

But even so, still the waves of refugees who came, both from the Cilum, Estrinx, and even Elbrasta itself still continue to flood the territory of Rhodesodia.
