Blood Of Platinum
Chapter 232. Information About the World Full of Magic bag. 2
A book appeared from inside the table after coming out of the drawer not long after the purple stone was placed in its slot. Ryou picked up the book.
“Book? Real old. I guess a touch screen will appear just like in a magic manga that has status. It turns out not like that huh, I'm disappointed now”
“Ryou, this is not the time to be disappointed. Let's take a look at his book”
Ryou opened his book and it was filled with English writing.
“Waa! British English?! Do they use British English here? Luckily I don't have to use an accent here” Ryou whispered to Kino
“No problem. Try to find out about this ‘world’, the name of the city, current location and more. Hopefully this time we can find out where we are and not the strange language that comes out”
“I understand”
The three of them sat down on the long chair that was on table number 23 and began to open his book.
Ryou started reading it. The book contains a basic introduction to the city. It's a little old-fashioned, but beyond a doubt, it really does contain basic information for tourists and newcomers alike.
In other words, like a travel guide book.
“Thick once” says Kaito
“I was shocked too. So far nothing special. Already so, it turned out that it could not read the location of this place. The name of the city became an illegible language, the name of this country is also unclear. There seems to be a limit for the three of us every time we move to ‘world’ lain”
“You're right, Ryou. I think the strength of this pocket watch limits us knowing the name ‘world’ or the current location” Kaito justifies Ryou's words
Kino looks at the book in Ryou's hand and reads it herself. He tried to remember many things in order to make it easier for them.
“Here it is written that all the citizens who live come from various races and tribes throughout the continent. It means that no longer human being lives. Elves, Mermaids, Sirens, Pixies and mythical creatures that exist in our home world are real here. Even goblins who became enemies while in ‘world night’ can become residents here”
“That's him. Funny enough, but I already knew that monsters and humans could coexist. But what I don't understand, the man named Xenon said that there is a supreme authority of the Magic School Academy here that allows them to catch criminals. Then, how is the system of government here?”
“Try me..”.
Kino flipped a few pages and she started reading them.
“The system of government in this foreign country is the kingdom. The location of the capital is in the east of this city and the location is quite far from here, but for defense problems and part of the protection of public life, here they apply the system of equality of governance”
Ryou directly cut off the older brother and asked with a puzzled face.
“What is a system of equality of government? Is there such a government? Are there only 6 systems in the world? Since when can add another one that is kind of strange so?”
“Here it is explained that the system of equality of government is a regulatory system created based on the Magic Trial conducted around the year? I can't read the year.”.
Ryou and Kaito look at the courtyard.
“I don't know what this number is. It's a picture of a bird and a pan in my eyes” Kaito said
“Yeah, since when there is a form of this weird number. I'm sure this is a picture of a fish and a cat eating each other. Why use hieroglyphics like this? Something is wrong with this place!!” ryou protest
“Yes already, forget it. The point is because of the Magic Assemblies that have ever happened, then there is a system where besides the kingdom that holds the highest authority, there is a system where, there is another one that holds the highest authority which is the Magic Council which is centered on the largest Magic School Academy in the entire country”
Kino tried to read every explanation in the book.
“Therefore, in the western region of the kingdom dominated by the power of the magic council, it was decided that the Magic School Academy which became the holder of the highest authority other than the kingdom”
“If the kingdom protects the people by making the King and Queen as the coat of arms of the State, then the Magic School Academy protects the people by making the Magic Council its emblem”
“The task of the Magic Council is to be both a sword as well as a shield in overcoming attacks from other parties involving magic. About so” Kino closed the explanation earlier
“So in other words, magic becomes an important element in this country as the defense and assault” Kaito tries to conclude
“It looks like so. In the end, everything related to magic was the affairs of the Magic School Academy and other government affairs were the duties of the Kingdom. However, because both of them are the highest authority holders so the division of power into two, namely the western and eastern regions, Kino continued
Ryou started to think seriously and started saying very unexpected things.
“It's like the world in the Black Clover anime. Let's just say the Magic Emperor in the anime is the Magic Council. Deserve the man named Xenon said that magic is paramount and the Magic School Academy is the highest authority”
“But I still don't like the way he said things like before this”
“Which thing?”
“When magic is the strongest and magic is free to use for everything and almost master everything. That sounds very devoid of conscience even though according to this book, it is justified” said Kino with a sad facial expression
Ryou and Kaito just look at each other. They understand that Kino is too soft and they can't do anything to change that.
Kaito tried to give a little understanding.
“Kino, don't think too much about it. This is the way this place works. If you're not used to it, then all of it will just be a burden to you”
“Kaito's right, Kino. This is how they work as a country. We will also get used to all this. After all we will not be in this place for long. no need to think too much about it”
“You're right. Thank you very much” Kino smiled
After finishing with the war of feelings, the three spent approximately three hours to read all the books.
After three hours…
“I feel like I'm reading the Black Clover story plus the setting of the Harry Potter movie and the Mashle manga at the same time. It's crazy, it's too fantasy to be real”
Ryou looks strange with a face similar to a fish on land. Looks like a person who has too much life pressure.
Not only Ryou, Kino also looks confused by all the explanations he reads.
“I feel like I just finished spending some time reading Ryou”'s manga collection
“Why do I feel from all ‘world’, this is the strangest?” Kaito also commented
Three hours of time had been spent and one conclusion the three of them could draw.
“The world this time is too weird and unreasonable”
