The Magus of Genesis

Lesson 1: Separation from Science/Separation with Science

Kang, Kang, Kang, and the sound of a petty hammer rings.

"Hmmm...... kinda big"

I glanced at the joints that jumped out of the wood and scraped them with yasles and slightly thinned them. It was a method known as a "broomstick" where the ends of the wood were processed into bumps and connected to each other to combine with gutters.

I don't want to use metal nails if possible for purposes.

"You made it?

"Yeah. Now we're done…………"

I nod to Nina, who called out to me from behind, inserting my heart stick into the center of the circularly assembled wood.

"That took a long time."

Nina leaks a raw yawn by looking up at the sun that's already past Jomtien and just going down.

"I wish I hadn't seen anything else if I was"

When I said that back, she silenced it.

Maybe he thinks it's dangerous if he doesn't see it.

As for myself, who beat my finger with a wooden hammer twice by mistake, I can't argue with anything.

"So, take this…………………."

I return to the figure of a dragon to lift the wood and insert my heart stick from the outside into a small hole in the wall of the cabin. It was, in short, a water wheel.

Farming culture has taken root in our village of Hiiro for over a hundred years. It is good that the harvest has also stabilized considerably, but eating wheat as it is is is difficult inside. It is basically powdered and processed into bread and noodles, but it was difficult to make this flour.

The stone molar is turned into powder by turning it into a grit, but it can only be turned into powder for about one kilo at the most. It was the current situation for wheat that could be taken tens of millions of kilometres each year, very little but not enough.

There, the water wheel. Turn the car with the flow of water, use the gear to change the direction of rotation and turn the stone mortar. This kind of thing that turns the movement of nature into another movement is collectively called the motive. If I remember correctly, the water wheel is the oldest driver in the world.

In this case, the manpower can be greatly reduced by the dimension that flour is made on its own by simply keeping wheat in the mortar.

Firstly, when you attach only the water wheel to the water wheel cabin, the size is perfect. After the water flow, when the water wheel twirls, it turns...

And it stopped perfectly.

"Is that it?"

"You can't do that."

"That's strange………"

Confirm the water wheel while withstanding Nina's cold gaze, but the water flow is hitting the wings of the chicken and the water wheel. If I pushed it with my hand to see if any of it had caught on, the water wheel circled easily.

But if you let go of your hand, it stops as soon as possible. Something's wrong with the movement.

"When I tried it on a small model, it worked."

"Isn't it too heavy?

Nina turns her suspicious eyes to me while she follows the water wheel. Then all of a sudden, the water wheel spinned at a high speed.

"Wh, Wh...!?

Surprised, Nina retreats. As soon as the surface of the water started to bubble.

"Just now!

It was a mermaid girl with a fishy lower body who appeared out of the waterway.

Play water for glossy blue hair, smooth extended arms, hip fins spreading like a dress. The large green eyes full of curiosity glorified some grown-up color instead of the young in memory.

"Lynn! Long time no see!

Lynn, a mermaid girl who was a former godchild and who also worked as a teacher.

It was thirty years ago when she left the village.

Whatever it is, it's about her, a species that is inherently inhabited by the sea, but so full of adventure that she has come ashore. It was a very natural story to become intolerable in this small village.

"Yeah, it's been a while -!

Lynn turns her arms around me and Nina and pulls them straight.

"Oh, hey.........!

Shortly after he resisted, three blisters rose.

"…… Not at all. As always."

Even as I squeeze my clothes and leak my dissatisfied voice, I guess I'm happy. Nina's expression was calm.

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!

Though the appearance has grown up, Lynn's contents remain the same.

With all that passes when our long-lived species live in people, her appearance remained unchanged after fifty years was a great pleasure.

"Even so, was Lynn pranking the water wheel? I thought it made sense."

"Waterwheel?"

To my words, Lynn leaned her neck so tightly.

"Look, I just installed it, it's a wooden wheel. Lynn was the one who stopped that one, wasn't she?

"Yeah, I didn't do anything."

As Kyoton, Lynn answers. Although she is a prank lover, she is not the kind of kid who lies and bluffs. Maybe it's true.

"Then why………?

I look at the water wheel as it is attached. That was still a strange move to turn and stop once in a while. Does that mean there's something wrong with my amateur craftsmanship after all?

"Seisei, what is that thing that does?

"Oh, that's what I was going to have the water push me around to..."

Speaking of which, I realize it's the water experts who are in front of me.

"Lynn, don't you know what's wrong?

"Uh, I don't know"

But she shook her head lightly. I knew I couldn't do it.

I guess Sig was better at this kind of mechanism than Lynn.

"Why does the wheel turn when you dip it in water?

If I thought so, I didn't know from the fundamentals.

"The water's flowing down the waterway, right? Then the water hits the wings of the water wheel here and turns the water wheel."

"Why?"

I miss you. Lynn's "Why?".

She doesn't get caught up in stereotypes like this in common sense or that should happen if you think about it normally. When I was in school, I felt like I heard it every day.

"Aren't you going to avoid water like this?

"No, it's not that I'm willing to water..."

Reflectively denied, I clasp my mouth.

"Do you have one?

I don't think so, Lynn said so softly.

"You mean you think that will, these things, right? I do. In water, in stone, in the wind. Like us."

The word of a girl full of certainty.

That doesn't seem like just primitive faith, it contains an intelligent sound, and I was strongly shocked.

If what she says is true.

In this world - science cannot be made up of the roots.

I have devoted my whole life to the study of occults.

So it's not as bright as science and technology.

But even though I was oblivious to the technology itself, I knew exactly what science was.

Because to know what is mysterious, unknown and occult, at the same time you have to know what is science, reason and known.

And most important to science is reproducibility.

If we set up the exact same environment and do the same thing, we can reproduce the same thing. This is reproducibility.

Engineering or chemistry, everything is based on reproducibility.

So for example, a story like saying that someone likes you and what do you think… is a problem that science cannot solve. Because it's a matter in that person's mind what he thinks about putting the exact same situation in place.

We can collect large numbers of samples to derive a statistically "what do you think," but that's the limit. Conversely, science also means that people's minds cannot be inferred.

So if what Lynn said was true, this was outrageous.

If there is also a will for all beings that are not water, wind, earth or creatures, and they move freely with their own will, then there is no such thing as reproducibility in this world.

Even if you do it in the exact same environment, it depends on how the water wheel feels then. Even if people still turn the water wheel to surprise them while they're watching, they don't bother to move or anything like that where they haven't seen it.

It was a hard story to believe. If that's true, it makes it seem that the world itself, rather than science, will not be made.

"Look."

However, once Lynn weighed down the water in the waterway and drained the water in a bucket into an empty ditch and flushed it, the waterwheel only began to turn smoothly. Think about it, the conditions are the same when tested on a small model. I flushed the water to make sure.

"How can it be like this………?

Both water quantity and water momentum are naturally more scarce in manpower. If you're thinking scientifically, you should be pulling water from the river more often. But in reality, the opposite is happening.

"'Cause Shisei's running water trying to turn the water wheel, right?

"Well, that's right."

He receives a bucket from me holding his head, and Lynn draws water from the river and pours it into the ditch.

"I'm not avoiding the water wheel."

As soon as she told him that, the water wheel stopped perfectly.

"No, 'cause it's magic, isn't it?

"Yeah, right?

Lynn is a magically good mermaid who manipulates water. I lost a lot of chanting, so I thought about manipulating the water... and I thought of a possibility.

"Wait. Could that be what you mean?

Once upon a time, I laid down a magic spell.

He said it was a word of intent, exercised via meaning and willingly.

That in itself, I'm sure, is not wrong.

But it meant more than I thought.

I flushed water in a bucket with the will and intent to move the water wheel.

So suppose the water wheel went around... I mean, Lynn says it's magic again.

And that's not all it means.

Lifting the barrel with your arm.

Walking on dirt too.

Eating things, breathing, even living.

Every move I'm casually making, all of it - no.

The world itself is magic.
