Since I was reincarnated as a poor farmer in another world, I decided to lay bricks and build a castle - 1238 Loyalty Mark
“… hmm? What about the back of that hand?” Have you done that before, Ben? ”
Benjamin received a transfer of magic power from his sidekick as he unfolded the magic circle.
When I was watching Benjamin, I suddenly realized that there was something different about him.
It was on the back of Benjamin’s hand.
The pattern was drawn on the right hand’s instep.
It looked different from the magic circle.
What should I say?
If you dare to say it, it would be like a sigil or a family crest.
However, the pattern that appeared on Benjamin’s right-hand armor looked similar to the sigil of the Demon Kingdom of Brillia, but it was different.
What the hell is this?
“Hmm. You’re right.” This is the loyalty fingerprint. ”
Loyalty Mark? What is it?
“Let me see the back of their hands, Al.” It’s the same as my hand’s seal, isn’t it? ”
Benjamin answers my questions.
Benjamin looked at their hands as well, as they pointed to the other side services with their right hand, which depicted loyalty marks.
Then, the same pattern as Benjamin’s was floating on his hands.
“… by the way, when I used [Name], I improved the magic circle that came up, but I didn’t name it.” And yet, Ben is getting his magic from them. Does that mean that this loyalty fingerprint has been replaced by a name? ”
“That’s right.” That magic circle was meant to engrave loyalty marks. I was able to receive magic power from them with the same loyalty crest as my coat of arms. ”
“… that doesn’t mean that if you use the magic circle, you can make the opponent pledge loyalty anyway.” If so, there is no reason why I have not used it before. However, if you also engrave loyalty marks on me, you will receive magic power. ”
“Hahaha. You’re really quick to understand, Al. You’re right. This loyalty print was said to have improved the Naming magic circle, but it was actually unfinished. If you can’t choose who you want to be loyal to, you’ll be left to the other side.”
“Do you want to leave it to the other person? Are you saying that it’s an automatic choice?” No, maybe the loyalty point could change along the way….. ”
After listening to Benjamin’s explanation, I was able to grasp the effect of this loyalty mark.
The Brillia Magic Kingdom created a new magic circle by adding hands to the [Name] magic circle.
But it couldn’t be completed in the true sense of the word.
Although it has succeeded in increasing the amount of magic power it can receive from the opponent, its recipient may not be absolute or fixed.
In short, if the opponent was not so loyal as to pledge loyalty, I wouldn’t be able to send a single sentence of magic power.
And when multiple enchanted opponents use the magic circle, they may not send magic power to both, but the more loyal they are, the more magic power is sent.
When that happens, the magic power you’ve gained until now may pass to others due to some kind of circumstance.
In that case, such a magic circle could be described as a failure.
Now Benjamin has been able to increase his magic power because the sidekick here trusts him and pledges their loyalty.
Otherwise, it would be completely ineffective. If this magic circle was inadvertently spread in the Brillian Magic Kingdom, it could increase the magic power of other nobles, not the royalty.
That’s why I didn’t use it until now.
Even so, I made improvements to the [Name] magic circle because I wanted to limit my magic power to people more than aristocrats.
Nobles and royals are more likely to gain fame than ordinary people, and loyalty will be easier to achieve.
Besides, this magic circle can also receive magic power from the opponent without giving them magic.
It may be possible to prevent magic from spreading in a disorderly manner and the rise of its own forces, as in the case of the small countries nowadays.
Under the current system, the royalty at the pinnacle will benefit, so this is probably the result of the improvement.
The problem is, except for the fact that this is in the opponent’s mind, it’s probably a pretty well-crafted magic circle.
“It’s an interesting magic circle.” However, this should give us a clear picture of the faction’s forces. Isn’t it quite frightening to see at a glance who is pledging allegiance to whom? ”
“That’s right. That’s why my father, the Mage, kept this incomplete, and I didn’t use it.” But I can’t say that either. Fortunately, I think I can make a name for myself because I got it. I have no choice but to use it. ”
Is that it?
“Yes, by the way, it’s not my lost property.” That’s the spoils I got from fighting the White Dragon. As expected, I can’t give that to Al either. ”
That said, there was snow ahead of Benjamin’s gaze.
But apparently, it wasn’t just a snow accumulation, but a soaring snow cover, and there was something else underneath.
Hearing Benjamin’s words, Lambda immediately moved.
I ran around and wiped the snow with my hands, and there was a piece of white dragon material.
White dragon scales and wing membranes.
Benjamin was defeated in the battle against the White Dragon using his royal demon army and demonic weaponry, but apparently it wasn’t a complete defeat.
I went to the mausoleum, fought the dragons, and survived.
As a result, the prince succeeded in bringing back some of the dragon’s materials.
I see, then perhaps we will gain fame.
Return with a track record of loyalty from other nobles.
Thanks to the improved loyalty mark, the whereabouts of the heir to the throne of the miraculous kingdom of Brillia was still unknown.
