"Shock absorption. What kind of principle does it use to absorb shock?"

It's probably best not to think too much about it," he said. After all, it is magic.

　Métis says that it's not a good idea to be so blunt. I'm sure that's true, but if you put it all away because it's magic, there's no progress.

　Upon closer examination using the Sage system, it seems that the property generates something called an Absorb force field, which envelops nearby objects.

　The absorbing force field also seems to absorb shocks and inertial forces applied from the outside. Inertial force refers to the force that would throw you forward when you are on a train and the brakes are suddenly applied.

　＜The first characteristic of "shock absorption" would be defensive magic. Defensive magic includes "Push," "Ogre Push," "Auto Shield," "Protect Shield," and "Magnetic Barrier.

　Among these, I thought "auger push" looked interesting, and when I was looking into it, thinking about the combination of characteristics, I found something interesting.

　＜The combination of "Shock Absorption" and "Vector Control" has proven to be able to dissipate the absorbed shock energy forward.

I see, the stronger the impact, the greater the force with which the enemy can be repelled.

It seems so. Wouldn't that make an ideal defense cum counter attack?"

It's an effective defense against a monster that rushes at you.

　I began to create a new kind of push magic. First, based on "Ogre Push," I expanded its size to about one meter in diameter. Then, I added the characteristics of the D-particle secondary mutation, and , together with . At this time, it is constructed in such a way that the absorbed impact energy is released forward.

　In addition, I tried to give it and make it explode only forward by the effect of , but it did not work. ＜It seems that can only handle one thing.

　Since this magic is for defense, it may be used when approached by a demon. In that case, , which does not control the direction of the explosion, is dangerous. Since we had no choice, we gave up giving .

　Incidentally, the combination of and is "Torpedo", so if you want to attack a nearby demon with , you can use "Torpedo".

　Then, after adjustments were made, the new defensive magic was tentatively registered in the wise man system.

Since you seem to have settled down, why don't you have dinner?"

I'll do that. I'm kind of hungry."

　I looked to the side and saw Taabo playing a sumo-like game with Tamegoro. They are completely different in size, so it is no contest, but he keeps challenging him no matter how many times he is rolled. Perhaps it is fun for him to be rolled.

　After finishing dinner at the dining room near the mansion and returning to the mansion, he goes to the roof balcony on the second floor. This roof balcony is about eight tatami mats wide and is used for drying clothes.

　So, we took the D-particle fiber manufacturing equipment out of the storage armoire and placed it on the floor. They are going to start spinning D-particle yarn by moving this equipment.

　When switched on, the device was found to suck D-particles in the air. It then spins a thread of D-particles and spits them out. This yarn can be adjusted in thickness at will.

　The device is powered by a yellow magic stone, which seems to run for about 24 hours when filled with about a cup of coffee. It makes little or no sound and continues to produce threads of D-particles.

　I've been running the D-particle fiber manufacturing equipment a lot since I got it, producing bundles of white D-particle threads that look like cotton threads but have a little bit of a silk sheen to them. Now that I have enough yarn to make clothes, I'm going to take it to a weaving factory and have it woven into cloth.

　The next day, I headed to the Suigetsu dungeon to test my new magic. He plans to test it against an attack boa on the second level, then try it on a tougher demon.

　Go down to the second level of the Water Moon dungeon and go to an area with many large trees a short distance from the entrance. First, try the trees, not the demons.

　A new magic that has not been multiply activated is released toward a tree about five meters away. A D-particle plate, circular with a diameter of one meter and a bump on its surface, spins and moves through the air.

　A small buzzing sound is heard as it pushes the air away and slams into the trunk of a tree, the D-particle plate mass carving a gash in the tree trunk, causing the impacted tree to mishap and shake slightly.

　Elmore came out of the shadows to watch and tilted his head.

'It's strange. It seems more powerful than expected.'

　I felt the same way. And it seems to be faster than "Auger Push".

　I tried it a few times and compared it to "Auger Push". It is indeed faster. After discussing the results with Métis, we came up with a hypothesis. The air resistance during the flight might be absorbed as a shock.

Now, let's release it at a distance of 20 meters, just short of the range.

Fair enough."

　I moved twenty meters away from the tree and unleashed a new spell, and the moment the D-particle plate hit the tree, the tree shook violently. I could see that the power was increasing and I judged that air resistance was also absorbed as a shock.

　Then I decided to try it on a demon and look for an attack boa. While searching around in the forest, I found one. The attacker seemed to weigh about a hundred kilograms.

　The attack boa also notices and makes a scratching motion on the ground with its hind legs before starting to rush forward. He intercepts it with new magic and hits the attack boa at the point where it flies about 15 meters.

　The attack bore appeared to be running at over fifty kilometers per hour, so the impact it must have received from bouncing back when it collided must have been tremendous.

　＜The attack boa was sent flying through the air after receiving a bouncing impact from the . The spinning attack boa hits the ground. The attack boa, which was still wobbly from that alone, was topped off with a "corn arrow".

Magic doesn't seem to be a problem."

Next, let's check with the demons in the Narukami dungeon. When you say a demon that rushes forward, you mean a minotaur.

　Back on the ground, we moved to the Narukami dungeon. Since the opponent to be tested is a minotaur, we had to go to the ninth layer. From the transfer room on the first level, we moved to the fifth level and passed through the ruins area with Elmore and Tamegoro out.

　I encountered a skeleton knight on the way, so I hit him with a triple activation of my new magic. The impact of the hit disintegrated the bones and crushed the skull, causing it to disappear.

I don't know, I don't know how powerful it is.

This magic is such that it can even stop a dragon from rushing forward. It's only natural that this would happen against a skeleton knight.

　Metis seems to think his new magic will work on dragons. He recalls his experience of being severely injured by a blow from the tail of an earth dragon. If he could catch that blow, it would mean that his defense had improved considerably.

　Pass through the sixth layer and fly through the seventh and eighth layers with the combat wing. Descend to the ninth layer and head for the Minotaur's fortress.

　Minotaur patrols have been resurrected around the fortress. We decided to test the power of our new magic against these patrols. As soon as we approach the fortress, we are spotted and the minotaurs are on their way.

　Aiming at the Minotaur, which was approaching with a thud and a rumbling of the earth, he launched a new magic in a triple activation. When the magic collided with the minotaur, the huge three-meter-long body flew away.

　The huge body, which was about five meters in the air, hit the ground violently. It was not a minotaur that would die from this, so it got up, raised its halberd, and attacked.

　The same magic is struck into the Minotaur. Slammed to the ground once more, the minotaur staggered back up. It seemed to have lost the strength to rush forward, so I topped it off with a triple cold shot.

I see no problem. Let's call this magic 'Titampush.'"

　Metis did not seem to have any objections. The D-particle formation formed by this magic was named "Titan Plate.
