Chapter 332 - Episode Thirty-Two - Old Pen's Progress (4)

[Apology]
My apologies ……
I made the mistake of apologizing and describing the plot of several episodes for less than an hour.
It has now been removed, but if you have seen it, it would be helpful if you could gently push it out of your memory into a corner of your mind. (04/22/2018)
**********
“You’re getting too close with Abel-sama, woman! There’s no way a little girl like you can understand Gillemeim! I’m sure you’ve only heard of the name, or overheard the thought experiment of Nyarun in Pandora’s Box, which was written up in an amusing manner. You’ve got a lot of nerve for a meek woman to want to hear Abel-sama’s interpretation!”
Penrath shouted to Altamir.
Penrath, you call her a little girl, but she is an artificial spirit of almost a hundred years old, the former master of the Witch’s Tower.
I’m sorry to say it, but Altamir and Penrath are two different kinds of sorcerers.
Altamir glares back at Penrath with a pissed off expression, but she quickly ignores him and turns her head back to me.
“…… Leave that old man alone, come on, talk to me quickly.”
“Yeah ……”
This guy, leaving Mea alone, I thought you came here to convince me about the magic discussion that I was having with Penrath.
The undead hunters have become the undead.
To be honest, I’m a little disappointed by her change of attitude, since I’ve been reflecting on it in my own way.
In the alchemist division, why is it that I’m the only one being treated like a sorcerer and Altamir is being treated like a saint?
“A-Alta-san …… A-Aren’t you supposed to be on Mea’s side?”
Mea pulls Altamir’s sleeve with a look of despair.
Altamir looks back at Mea, gives her an apologetic look, and then turns back to me.
“Come on, she’s saying this too, so hurry up and talk to her!”
“You just made a very convenient translation in your head, didn’t you?”
The meaning has been changed to the extent that it has been electronically translated across three minor languages.
There is no original form at all.
“That’s why I told you that all you have to do is say the summary quickly! If you had just spoken quickly, it would have been over by now!”
“It will never end! It ended just now!”
Mea, with tears in her eyes, tries to persuade Altamir.
But as Mea says, Altamir is not like Penrath.
Penrath, who disregards everyone but me, had no intention of breaking the ice for Mea, now that I think about it.
I was completely taken in by him and talked about this and that.
Altamir is surprisingly attentive in this area.
I said a lot of things, but if I hadn’t, I wouldn’t have been able to establish my current position in the alchemist division.
“All right, so just the touchy parts ……”
“Haaaaa, I don’t think I can even understand a single bit of what Abel-sama is saying. But if Abel-sama allows it, then it can’t be helped. But woman, the moment I decide that you don’t understand anything, this Old Pen will kick you out! You’d better prepare yourself!”
Even though Penrath shouted at her, Altamir only glared back lightly and didn’t take it.
…… The only other person who can talk to Penrath properly is Altamir, but that’s not going to be easy if they don’t get along.
This old man is a little too aggressive.
It will take a little while for Penrath to get used to the Fage territory.
“In order to give you a quick, verbal overview of my interpretation of Gillemeim’s Virtual Demon Paradox, I’ll start by talking about “Hainma’s Spirit Hypothesis” and “Rialis’s comparison of the total mana mutations of microscopic and macroscopic spirits under certain conditions”, and work from there. Hainma is not a very famous person, and the comparison of the total mana mutation formula of Rialis is the thesis of a student at a magic school, so Alta wouldn’t know about it.”
Hainma is about 120 years old, but Rialis is only 40 years old.
It was during the time when Altamir was living elegantly in the tower that Rialis’ thesis became a topic of conversation.
Of course, there was no way that Altamir, who had just recently come out of the tower, knew about Rialis.
“I know both of them, so please just tell me the conclusion briefly. I’ve already done that much research. But I didn’t think her formula was that big of a deal. You compare the differences in the formulas for different conditions, and then figure out the magical significance of the difference values, right? I’ve done that before, and the conclusions were pretty mundane.”
Oops, it seems that Altamir was also doing some research on how much development there has been in the study of magic since she left the tower.
I think I’ve underestimated Altamir a bit.
“Y-You must have known about it by accident. Stop acting tough ……”
Penrath grits his teeth and looks at Altamir.
Altamir smiles proudly.
“L-Looks like this is going to be over soon ……”
Mea whispered.
-And so, twenty minutes passed.
“…… I see. So you’re saying that the solution is that there is no paradox.”
“Yeah, if I had to guess, I’d say that the real problem with this paradox is figuring out the magical meaning of the second mana function.”
“There is no way to answer that question. There are different interpretations of it, but the formulas are equivalent. It’s more of a conceptual thing.”
“I would like to propose a theory about this. It’s not so much my theory as it is what Gillemeim himself has been hinting at ……”
“This guy got it all figured out? Ah, geez! You really have a bad personality! Thoroughly, I feel a troublesome smell like “I don’t dare say, but I really know”. You’re definitely a bundle of pride! I can see it in the habits of the Array letters and the structure of the magic formula!”
The array letters is a script unique to sorcerers that is used to write magic books.
If you’re using a general language, you don’t know how much text even a simple book of magic will contain, so it’s common to use array letters, which are words with many magical meanings in each letter.
The array letters varies from country to country, time period to time period, and even from person to person, making it a mirror of the essence of a sorcerer.
I waved my wand and spelled the words in the air.
“The conventional way of thinking about the movement of Gillemeim’s virtual demons, assuming that they are monospiritual, takes this waveform …… The Mars formula, or even the mixed hypothesis, is like this, or like this …… but that’s not what I’m trying to show. The way a monospiritual body moves is exactly like this. This is what it means for the second mana function to take non-natural numbers.”
I drew a circle that resembled a single spirit virtual demon, then drew an arrow and two half circles at the end of it.
“Ah, ahhhhhh! Lie, ahhhhh! That way! Aaah! Really, geez, ahhhh! Well, we can’t announce that publicly, can we?”
Altamir presses her mouth with her hand and raises her voice.
Altamir is quick to understand.
I thought Penrath wouldn’t understand this at the moment, so I kept my mouth shut when I talked to him and Mea, but Altamir was coming on so strong that I decided to finish the conversation myself.
“Abel-sama! Wha-Wha-, what’s this all about!? Why, why did the single spirit body split into two!? It’s the smallest unit of spirit body, right!? That’s the common sense of sorcery! If this is true, then all the theorems are just a convenient lie for sorcery! It can’t be true …… right? Abel-sama, Abel-sama! This is something that should not happen, right!?”
As expected, Penrath was unable to accept it and was in a state of confusion.
Penrath grabbed my shoulder as if to cling to it and shook me.
“Are you saying that this is the punishment for those who have foolishly believed in the visible?”
“Calm down, Penrath. Philosophy is not my domain.”
“However, howerer …… you want me to calm down when I see this! Ms. Alta! Can you accept this, Ms. Alta!? It’s a cruel commentary on the existing science of magic, isn’t it?”
“You have to admit it. I feel rather refreshed. I’m embarrassed to say it now, but it’s not that it didn’t bother me at all. In fact, it made sense to me. And unless I admit it, there will be no progress in human’s magic, and I will never get closer to the truth of magic that I have been searching for. Are you going to give up here? Are you going to pretend you never heard of it?”
“Ms. Alta…… This fool, this fool……! I’ve been doing this for years, and I’ve come to realize that I’m this old …… What can this fool do after all this time……?”
Penrath began to shed tears.
“Co-, come on, Old Pen, you don’t have to cry …… hmm?”
I noticed that a few of the end alchemists who had finished their break were beginning to return to the hall.
“Oh ……”
I quickly looked at Mea.
Mea was staring at Penrath and Altamir with dead eyes, as if she wanted to say something.
