Endless Silver Machine

As a result, Professor Cocona did not let Aika enter the research room.

After listening to Aika's explanation, he took the PDA from his hand and drove him home without further explanation.

Until the end, Aika didn't know the relationship between Inili and Professor Cocona.

Aika's explanation to Lolo and the others was to send the PDA to Professor Cocona for repair, without telling them about Inili, and they did not doubt this simple excuse.

In the afternoon of the next day, Aika arrived at Professor Cocona's research room on time.

He knew that today there wouldn't be any class as usual, but instead there would be talk about Inili.

"You're here."

Professor Cocona is in the studio on the second floor, with Aika's PDA on the table.

"Professor Cocona, can you tell me now?"

"Is it about Yinili? In short, she is my friend, and I made the agreement for you. I'm sorry..."

"I'm not blaming Professor Cocona. I just didn't understand it at all when I was suddenly told something like this when I didn't know anything."

"Inili is not a bad person, I can guarantee that... Let's start the class first."

Professor Cocona explained her relationship with Inili in a few words, but did not say anything about what Aika wanted to know.

But Aika didn't feel dissatisfied, as long as Professor Cocona promised that she was not a bad person.

"Isn't Inili not here today?"

"She is now connected to your PDA through a special signal. You said before that there was noise on the PDA. That was because the signal was interfered by the big barrier of Frost Moon Academy. I didn't consider this variable before, so the connection was very slow. Unstable.”

"Does this mean the connection has been disconnected now?"

"Well, actually, it broke not long after I got it last night."

This is the reason why Yi Nili didn't speak today. Aika looked at the silent black DPA lying on the table, and suddenly felt like she missed her noisy voice.

"Today I'm not teaching you about magic mechanics, but about it."

Professor Cocona picked up Aika's PDA and placed a small chip next to it.

"what is this?"

"Molecular Power Furnace."

"……Really?"

"Of course it is true, but it is much smaller than the one you know. It can only record one digital magic formula, so its practicality is very low. It has not been mass-produced yet."

"Does this have anything to do with Inili?"

"Although I didn't have long contact with Inili yesterday, we have found a solution to the problem of signal interference."

"Use digital magic to replace physical signals?"

Although he has just stepped into the door of magical mechanics, Aika can still achieve this simple theoretical transformation.

"Correct. Inili is a genius in magic. After I told her about this idea, she immediately created a new digital magic formula."

"Creating a new magic formula and converting it into data? This is already far beyond the scope of genius!"

"Although it is a creation, there is still a magic formula as a template." Cocona put away the small chip, "I installed the molecular power furnace equipped with the magic formula into your PDA this morning. , it should be very simple just to start it up.”

"That doesn't mean..."

Magical machinery, simply put, is a machine that can use a molecular power furnace to convert magic power.

"Yes, I have transformed this PDA into a magic machine, although it can only use one kind of magic."

"Can I contact Inili just by using the magic here?"

"Try it yourself."

Professor Cocona handed Aika the PDA that looked exactly the same as before, and he took it carefully.

Using his own magic power to activate the built-in molecular power furnace, the feeling given back to Aika is similar to that of a magic tool. It is a completely magical machine.

Then, the PDA's screen flashed with light. This is not the light emitted by fluorescent tubes, but the magic transformed by the molecular power furnace.

"You are really impatient. Do you really want to see me as soon as possible?"

This time, the speaker was silent, and a familiar voice sounded behind Aika.

The girl was wearing a gorgeous trousers, her hands were holding Bi Ling's slightly plump breasts, and her long hair was pouring down like a violet waterfall.

Although he has an elegant temperament, his cheerful and a bit "aloof" smile makes him feel close to him.

"What's wrong? Weren't you very excited just now? Why did you stop talking after seeing me?"

The girl dragged her clothes that reached the ground and came closer to Aika, looking at his face curiously.

"No, sorry!" Suddenly being so close to the girl she met for the first time, Aika took a step back nervously, "Are you Inili?"

"Well, I am my concubine."

"ha……"

"Hahaha!" Professor Cocona, who had been silently watching the development between the two, suddenly laughed, "It's just a magic projection, are you so nervous?"

"Magic projection?"

"I told you, her magic formula has a template."

"Cocona is right, what you saw was just my illusory figure."

"That is to say...is the current Inili just a ghost-like existence?"

"Do you want to confirm?"

"confirm?"

"As long as you touch the body you see, won't you be able to get the answer?"

"Yeah...wait a minute, isn't that right!"

"Why?" Yi Nili tilted her head as if she really didn't understand, "Don't you want to confirm?"

Aika hesitated.

Although he has not learned projection magic yet, the Inili in front of him feels like she really exists here, and he wants to touch her body or something...

"Oh?" Yinili suddenly narrowed her eyes as if she had found something interesting. "I originally thought that a man like you who is good at making girls cry would be very experienced. Could it be that..."

She deliberately did not say that word, but this subtle consideration made Aika feel twice as ashamed.

But what Inili said was true, and Aika had no way to show off. Suddenly, he wanted to take revenge on her.

"...I'm just confirming what you said. Are you ready for what you said?"

"Eh?" Yinili stopped snickering. She was frightened by Aika's serious expression, "I... I'm just giving you a suggestion, no need for any mental preparation..."

Aika swallowed and raised her hand.

The Inili in front of her was no different from an ordinary girl. Aika tried her best to endure it, but still felt a sense of betrayal and guilt deep in her heart.

"Wait a minute, it's true that it hasn't..."

Inili herself, who made the suggestion, backed away in panic. She probably just gave Aika's suggestion casually, not expecting that he would actually implement it.

"If there is no body, the hand will pass through your body, so that's fine..."

Originally, he would be satisfied and stop after seeing Inili's panic, but Aika suddenly wanted to keep doing it like this to see what kind of reaction she would have.

So instead of retreating, he took a step forward as Inili took a step back.

"Wait a minute, Aika!"

Professor Cocona seemed to say something behind her, but Aika's hand had already touched Inili's body.

It didn't come through like a ghost in imagination, but a warm and soft touch.

Snapped--

"You pervert!"

Inili slapped Aika hard on the face, further cementing Aika's knowledge that she was not a ghost.

"What, what's going on?"

Aika, who was left with burning pain on her face, could only make an unclear sound, watching Inili holding her body in tears and glaring at him with resentful eyes.

Professor Cocona also quickly stepped forward and pulled Aika away from Inili.

"Aika, don't you know what projection magic is?"

She puffed up her cheeks and looked very dissatisfied with Aika's behavior.

That's right. If your student did something like this to your friend, you wouldn't be happy no matter how you think about it.

"Didn't you just say it was just an illusory image?"

Just because he believed this, Aika had the courage to retaliate against Inili's ridicule to him, but the fact was completely opposite to what he imagined.

"Idiot! There are conditions for whether something created by projection magic has an entity. You definitely wanted her to have an entity just now, right?"

"No...I didn't..."

"Pervert! As long as you don't have such dirty thoughts, you will never touch me!"

Inili was furious, berating Aika, but not enough to run from the room.

"Projection magic is a special magic that has an effect on the magician who uses the magic. Although the most basic form is a virtual image in your understanding, if you hope that she can be touched, the situation just now will happen."

"But I really don't have this idea!"

"Magic is produced in a person's heart. Your subconscious actually wants to touch her body."

Professor Cocona and Inili not only spoke with contempt in their voices, but their eyes were full of disdain.

Aika reflected that he was indeed unable to detect the subconscious mood. But if you want Inili to feel the same shame as yourself, you may indeed have this idea secretly.

"Feel sorry……"

"Even if your mind is full of pornography, it's the same as that man's. The blood connection is really scary!"

"I don't think about that kind of thing all day long! And which man are you comparing me to?"

"Huh! I won't talk to you anymore!"

"It made her angry..." Professor Cocona looked at Aika speechlessly, who didn't know what to do. "The feeling you feel in Inili is just the feeling that already exists in your impression. And , even if you can touch Inili's body, she is still a virtual image to other people. Also, the range of this projection magic is probably a circle with the PDA as the center and a radius of two or three meters. Okay, I’ve said everything I should tell you, and now you two can figure it out on your own.”

In order to get away from the troublesome things, Professor Cocona ran out of the studio after doing what she could do.

Aika looked tremblingly at Inili, who was still ignoring her with her lips pouted. If the touch he just felt was the way he felt about girls, then this inexplicable feeling of familiarity would make sense. But there was something else about her that made Aika feel less strange than when they first met.

"Inili..."

"snort!"

Her head turned further to the side.

"Sorry, I just wanted to make a joke. If I had known that this magic had such properties, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."

"...Your words have no credibility. This must be the same as that man..."

"It's time to tell me who you mean by 'that man'?"

"...It has nothing to do with you."

"You've been comparing me to him. No matter how you look at it, it has a lot to do with it, right?"

"..."

It seems that Inili is not ready to tell Aika. She hasn't even told herself her real name now, and of course she won't tell her deeper things.

So Aika didn't bother her anymore.

"Is the way you are projected now also created by me based on my impression?"

If feelings can be created, then her posture may also come from her own fantasy, which makes it understandable why she has no strange feelings about herself.

But Inili shook her head, denying his understanding of this magic.

"This is a magic formula that I have re-refined. The current image comes from my impression of the past. But now, my body should not have changed much from the past."

"Yeah……"

Time passed very quickly in that world, but her body didn't grow. Does that mean?

Although everything about Inili is a mystery, Aika will not do anything like asking for details. Everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell.

"Will you come to visit tomorrow?"

"Eh?"

"We're going to visit, isn't it agreed with you?"

"Uh-huh……"

Her reaction was half full compared to the original, as if she had something on her mind.

"But wouldn't it be strange for me to walk around Shimozuki Academy like this?"

This is probably the only example of the heavy and gorgeous twelve singles in Shimozuki Academy.

"That's right..."

If she were to walk in Shigetsuki Academy like this, it would immediately become big news to everyone.

Yinili probably didn't want to feel like being surrounded by a lot of people when she was visiting. In that case, the visitors and the visitors would be reversed.

"Can't you change the clothes you're wearing?"

"Do you want me to take off all my clothes? You are indeed a pervert!"

"I didn't say that at all! I mean since you can create this kind of virtual image, it shouldn't be difficult to just change your clothes, right?"

"Your magic foundation is really speechless. Of course it won't be that simple. Just change a few details and the entire magic formula will be rebuilt."

"Well……"

"Besides, I don't remember what I looked like when I was wearing other clothes..."

Has Inili been dressed like this for a long time? This kind of clothing visually shows that it is expensive to make, and it should be a symbol of some kind of status.

"This would be a little troublesome..." Aika put aside her identity for the time being, but tried her best to rack her brains so that she could walk around outside, "Is there any way to prevent others from seeing you? Where’s the magic…”

"Yep."

Inili suddenly said after hearing his mumbling.

"Then you should have told me earlier."

"forgotten……"

As a result, as long as Inili, the creator of the magic style, has that thought, she can only be seen by specific people.

"I have been thinking about it for so long..."

Aika felt exhausted after knowing the truth, and he was ready to seek help from Lelu, who was good at hallucinations.

"Hey, I want to see you looking so troubled."

"Please don't say this kind of thing openly..."

Inili's ancient tone is different from ordinary people, and now Aika is completely used to it.

Because of the sense of intimacy that was far different from the attire and tone of voice, Aika felt that such a conversation was relaxing in another way.
