Ron thought for a moment, then said, "Linda, let's go record a video and test the effect of the Phantom Stone."
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope."
...
The group arrived at the backyard of the lord's mansion. Ron took out the Phantom Stone, which he usually couldn't bear to use. Because the element of time was difficult to manipulate, the Phantom Stone was a rare item, at least for now.
Before starting, Ron set up a magic circle on the ground using magical materials.
The magic pattern appeared.
The backyard floor looks like it has been painted, like a picture...
Ron stepped back and said, "Linda, please come in!"
Meanwhile, Ron placed a phantom stone at the center of the formation.
Once Linda arrived at the designated location, Ron began to probe his mental energy into the Phantom Stone, ready to activate the magical item at any time.
It feels somewhat similar to activating the magic shield of a magic robe, with similar steps, but it incorporates some understanding of space and time.
When activating a spacetime artifact, use your mental energy to pinpoint the activation point of that magic circle.
Ron also knew the closing point perfectly, which he used to create the time illusion.
Linda was ready, and Vivian's pretty face unconsciously showed a hint of anticipation, while Angel Rita remained as aloof as ever. (* ̄(エ) ̄)
The gods of the divine kingdom already possessed basic laws governing the application of time and space; wasn't that time-space portal simply an application of time and space?
But no one has ever before attempted to become a god through time and space…
Linda was clearly considering more things: "Your Holiness, which song would Linda like to sing?"
Ron's eyes darted around: "Why don't you sing what you like?"
"Really? Should Linda sing it first?"
"certainly."
"..."
Beautiful and melodious music.
It evokes a sense of nostalgia. Could it be that Linda has also developed a liking for story songs?
The lyrics sing of the life of a wandering poet...
It's a new song, but Ron thinks it's pretty good.
"That's it. One song isn't enough time. Sing a few more."
"Yes, Your Holiness."
"..."
Before they knew it, everyone had turned to listening attentively to the song.
Ron discovered one advantage: after becoming the Pope of the Goddess of Music, it was incredibly easy to get people to sing for entertainment.
?( ̄??)
Linda was also worried that she wouldn't meet the Pope's requirements.
As the music faded, Ron called out, "Linda, you don't need to sing anymore, that's enough."
Of the eight songs, three are incomplete. These are the otherworldly songs that Ron taught Vivian, with the melodies of the present world added.
Music transcends borders and dimensions; if it sounds good, it sounds good.
"Then, Your Holiness, I will sing."
"Okay, I'll say start, so you start."
"..."
"start."
"..."
"..."
"..."
People listened quietly, while Ron carefully activated the magic circle.
A small space, a thin spatial element, and that inexplicable and ineffable law of time.
Time is confined within a small stone.
The inner magic circle, or Ron still needs to study it further.
Every experience brings new insights.
The surface magic circle was activated, and the phantom stone floated in the air. Ron then activated the magic circle inside the phantom stone.
They complement each other, but unfortunately, the spells are missing, increasing the mental energy required.
Incantations generally serve to guide spiritual power.
...
The Phantom Stone acts as a witness, not a living being, recording events that occur at specific points in time.
As Linda was singing, she suddenly saw Ron smile, and felt a sense of joy at being recognized by the Pope.
Linda loosened up a bit, and eventually, all eight songs were recorded.
It's a real shame that back then, song lyrics should have been memorized like poems for the college entrance exam. But since they weren't on the test, weren't sung much, and were never really remembered clearly.
On the contrary, I still remember the poems from the previous ones that were going to be on the test...
Sigh, it's a helpless situation.
╮( ??w?? )╭
Even so, as his mental power guided the Phantom Stone into his palm, Ron still smiled.
Striving for perfection in everything makes things less beautiful.
"Come on, everyone, let's see the results together."
Place the phantom stone into yet another magic circle.
start up.
The phantom appeared.
But here's the big problem: there's no sound!
This is the consequence of not having enough magical understanding. Recall the phantom stone at the hero's burial site, which could even record the sound of war drums on the battlefield.
Why is Ron's artificial phantom stone not working?
I hadn't tried it before, and the first time wasn't entirely satisfactory.
Ron remained calm in the face of the crowd.
It's understandable that they'll be disappointed; as expected, man-made things are still missing something crucial.
"Your Holiness, this..."
"Don't worry, I have another piece. This piece should be enough, but I hope you can sing and dance. Even if there's no sound, at least there should be dancing."
"Understood……"
...
Ron took out the Phantom Stone again, but this time it was the original that he had deliberately kept.
Another copying process.
Finally, we have both music and dance.
Facing everyone, Ron said, "Take this Vivian. Vivian can demonstrate the effects of the Phantom Stone a few more times."
Ron himself left the spot with the first artificial phantom stone.
As evening fell, Vivian was still playing with the Phantom Stone in front of everyone. With Ron gone, the people present became more familiar with each other.
In the meditation room, Ron was studying.
Time-traveling magic runes...
So that's how it is.
Several days later, Ron emerged from his semi-seclusion.
Vivian and the angel Linda were standing in front of the door.
"Here, take this."
Vivian accepted the Phantom Stone.
"Let's try starting it," Ron said with a smile.
Vivian, who possesses the talent of the time element, is a candidate who, besides Ron, is relatively easy to activate time-space artifacts.
The magical item was activated once again.
Linda's time-space illusion appeared.
It wasn't ideal, but at least the first song had some sound.
Ron has done his best. If he changes the magic nodes again, the entire spacetime artifact will be destroyed.
Along with the original Phantom Stone, keep the man-made version as a souvenir.
That very day, Ron began planning the commencement of operations within the territory.
The Phantom Stone can be activated once a day to self-repair; activating it too often will cause an imbalance of elements.
At dusk, during a break from the eight-hour workday, Sandy City was the first to use entertainment magic items as dusk fell.
The idea was brilliant, and the execution was equally swift.
The following evening, people who heard the notice from the Lord's Mansion came to Sandy Park.
The park wasn't crowded, as it wasn't fully completed, but at that moment, a floating rock caught the eye.
Three-dimensional imaging, the feeling of transcending time and space, and the way key time and space nodes are recorded are not something that equipment can fully simulate.
Ron was in a private room in the building, from where he could see what was happening below. What was he thinking about this time?
At least the magical civilization was a leap forward; he had some idea of that. <(?????)>
Linda, the singer wearing a white face mask, entered the stage, and Eden, the territory magician, greeted her.
The mage's telepathic spell echoed throughout the entire arena: "People of Viscount Ron Lance, our lord has presented us with the Eternal Singer's Song, behold, behold..."
