Kapitel 297: The magic in this world is stronger than I thought
"What's wrong, Iinuma-san?"
A charming married woman with a veterinarian uniform asked Isao with a doubt.
"No, nothing."
[You have acquired Tookami Serika's DNA.]
[Do you want to absorb it?]
"How are the cows?"
"Ah, yes, my husband told me that everything should be okay, but he still did the second check."
"Iinuma-nii, where did you come from before?"
Still, as the two talked to each other, suddenly, two little girls approached them.
"Marika, don't bother Iinuma-san!"
"It's fine, Tookami-san." Isao patted Serika's daughter's head softly. "I am from Okinawa, Marika-chan."
"Eh? Okinawa? Is that so far?"
"...why did you move to Hokkaido, Iinuma-san?"
Unlike Seriaka's daughter, Tookami Marika, Alisa Tookami was a beautiful girl with Russian features such as light blond hair and close-to-light silver-green eyes.
It was clear that Alisa was the adopted daughter of the Tookami family, but Isao wasn't such a dimwit who would ask such a thoughtless question.
[You have acquired Alisa Tookami's DNA.]
[Do you want to absorb it?]
Yet, he felt so weird about his luck since the random veterinarian he chose to check the health of his cows would be the descendants of the magician who was born from the 10th Research Institute, and Alisa, this half-Russian girl, would be the illegitimate daughter of the current patriarch of the Juumonji Family, one of the families within the Ten Clans who made him speechless.
'The 10th Research Institute, huh?'
In this country, all the modern magicians who use modern magic were born or created from the Magician Research and Development Institutes. Depending on the Research Institute's focus, they were all genetically modified to become the strongest magicians in that field.
Well, that didn't mean that all modern magicians were "test tube babies" born from artificial insemination in an artificial womb since the current generation of magicians were all born from the marriage of magicians.
Nevertheless, ten research laboratories, each with a specific research theme, were established in this country. Certain laboratories have been shut down, one after another, due to inhuman research conducted, among other reasons, but half of them are still running as of 2095.
Among them was the 10th Research Institute, which was established in 2039 in Tokyo. However, it is currently shut down.
In addition to capital defense like the 7th, it focuses on Wide-Area Magic, which generates virtual structures in space as a defensive countermeasure to heavy firepower. The results are the many varieties of anti-physical attack barrier magic.
And among those magicians' families born from the 10th, both Juumonji and Tookami were both famous.
Yet, the reasons for their families were different.
If Juumonji was known as the leader of the 10th and was also part of the Ten Master Clans, then Tookami was also famous for being exiled from the 10th.
If there was a reason why the Tookami family was exiled, it was all due to their magic.
Yet, Isao didn't expect that he would meet this family when he had just hired a veterinarian for his dairy farm randomly.
Still, even if the Tookami family was exiled, Isao had to say, their magic was quite good.
Reactive Armor: this was the magic of the Tookami family, or Toogami before it changed, a single-person body armor magic that enveloped the caster in invincible armor, which automatically regenerated every time it was broken, and as it was broken, strengthened on each iteration, making it harder to breach every time it was broken.
It was good magic, but it wasn't without a flaw, as this magic could only be used for a limited time, and it was impossible to control how strong the next armor was as it was automatically generated, so when the armor was broken, the next armor created was only a little stronger than the broken armor.
Except for that, it was all good, especially when it was made from five layers of weak armor: anti-solid, anti-fluid, anti-gas, electromagnetism, and heatproof, as well as strong armor in stand-by.
Moreover, as it was automatically used, there was no time lag, and there was no need to worry that the magic would malfunction or be unable to be used due to a human error.
Still, why was such a family exiled from the 10th even with such magic?
If Isao had to say, it was due to the 10th's focus, which was Wide-Area Magic that generated virtual structures in space as a defensive countermeasure to heavy firepower.
The Reactive Armor could only protect the caster, and it was unable to protect others, which caused their existence to be a burden within the 10th.
Yet, in the eyes of the military, their existence was quite useful as the magicians from the Tookami family could be used in suicide bombings or assassinations.
'Now, it isn't so strange why they moved to Hokkaido to open a veterinarian clinic.'
Still, the big surprise was definitely Alisa Tookami's DNA, who happened to be the illegitimate daughter of the current leader of the Juumonji Family.
'Juumonji...'
Like Miya's family, the Juumonji were also part of the Ten Master Clans.
If there was a reason this family was chosen, it was their magic, which was known as "Phalanx," a multi-layered barrier that continuously refreshed itself. Even if it was destroyed, it would continue to generate more and more to protect everyone until the caster emptied its magic power.
Frankly, this magic was good, or even amazing. It could be said that it was the superior version of Sakurai Honami's barrier magic, the pink barrier, which he often used in the past.
Nevertheless, unfortunately, Alisa's existence was never known by the Juumonji family except for her father, who pretended that she didn't exist, so Isao knew that he needed to develop this magic himself.
He might have the seed, but it took time for it to bloom, right?
'Unless I go to Tokyo to replicate the DNAs of the magicians of the Juumonji Family.'
Still, if the signature magic of Tookami, who was being exiled, was stronger, what about the signature magic of other families?
Somehow, he realized that the value of this world was even more incredible than he had thought.
The combination of science and magic created a possibility that he had never thought of before.
While it might seem troublesome, especially when the abilities or magic in other worlds could be used without much trouble, the power of the magic in this world was much stronger as they were created with an image to match the modern weapons that continued to be developed.
So, if the magic of this world was just enough to light up a match, then the magicians were simply meaningless.
Still, this also made him wonder about the magic of all other families and wished to get all of them, especially with the ability of One For All could strengthen all of those magics.
But before that—
"It's too hot in Okinawa."
"Haha..." 2x
The girls laughed when they heard Isao's answer, but Tookami Ryoutarou, the veterinarian hired by Isao, thought that Isao moved away from Okinawa due to the attacks of the Great Asian Union before, and he also understood Isao's thoughts.
Hokkaido is so far away from Okinawa, so it should be safe, right?
Well, that wasn't the case since it was close to the New Soviet Union and the Great Asian Union, but then again, it wasn't like any place in this country was safe, especially when it was sandwiched by many great countries.
'War...'
Ryuutarou sighed helplessly, but he knew that there was nothing they could do since the matter of war could only be decided by those who stood above. They, who were just civilians, could only hope for peace, for everyone could only live in peace.
Or rather, having a stable life was simply the dream of many in this world.
So, Ryuutarou knew that he needed to take care of Isao well, as he could feel that Isao would become a person with a great position in Hokkaido.
Watching his wife, who talked smoothly with Isao, Ryuutarou nodded, thinking that his clinic would be well-off and get a lot of money soon.
