I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (Web Novel) - Chapter 2459: Requested Item
Chapter 2459: Requested Item
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, but Im on a business trip, so the next update will be the day after tomorrow.
For now, Im heading toward Suiren with Kaori-san, but we havent really made any concrete plans for what to do afterward. I do want to do a bit of sightseeing since Im in the Friendship City, but Kaori-san is probably tired and would want to take it easy.
Of course, I could wander around on my own, but somehow that feels like a waste.
[Ah, right. Kaori-san, do you want to watch a movie together?]
[Eh? A movie? Have recording magic tools developed that much already? Last time I heard, they could only handle about three minutes of footage at most]
Kaori-san is right, recording magic tools, which are equivalent to video cameras in our world, are still a work in progress.
From what Ive heard from Mom and Dad, magic crystals are good at storing magic power, but theyre not suited for keeping video data. Even high-purity crystals cant store long footage.
The reason is that, by their nature, magic crystals constantly absorb ambient magic power, which affects the recordings they store. To protect against that, additional protective magic formulas need to be inscribed, which nearly eliminates the storage capacity.
So, in other words, developing something like a Blu-ray disc or other storage media equivalent is necessary, and various trading companies are already pursuing development in that direction.
Im sure the profits for the first successful company are enormous, but its clearly difficult. Even Kuro struggled with it, and it seems hard unless new materials or processing techniques appear.
Well, thats not related to what were talking about now. The reason I invited Kaori-san has nothing to do with recording magic tools.
[Ah, no, not a recording tool errr, its understandable if you dont know, but at my birthday party, Canalis-san gave me something like a tablet that lets me watch movies from our world. I can pay to watch everything from the latest films to old classics.]
[Eh, eeeh, you can even watch the latest movies!? Thats amazing! I really like movies, especially romance films. There are works that hadnt been released yet when I was summoned here that I wanted to see and some I havent seen in ages Eh? Wait, can I watch them too?]
[Yes. You can project them as an SF-style monitor in the air or use a projector-like setup on a wall, both the visuals and sound are amazing.]
[Thats perfect! I want to watch! If youre okay with it, Kaito-kun, lets watch it at my shop!]
Hearing the word movie, Kaori-sans mood clearly brightened, and she smiled as she said it. Her reaction exceeded my expectations, but thinking about it, this is probably her first movie in over 10 years, so it makes sense that shes excited.
Kaori-san also said she enjoys theater, so she likely likes narrative entertainment. Either way, Im glad she looks happy.
[Then, shall we head straight to the shop?]
[Yeah ah, no, since its a movie, lets buy some snacks too!]
[Thats true, snacks would be good and wow, youre really excited.]
[Of course, Im excited! Its a movie were talking about here! Theater is fun too, but its been ages since I watched a movie, so its thrilling. Thanks to magic tools, this world isnt inconvenient at all but when it comes to entertainment, it doesnt compare to that world with smartphones, computers, and the internet. The game we played for your birthday was fun too, it had been a while.]
[Ah, thats true. Entertainment-wise, our former world definitely wins. Of course, this world will continue developing, but as of now]
I think part of it is due to the contract between Shiro-san and Makina-san, which placed global restrictions on reproducing mechanical products or misappropriation of technology.
Now, those restrictions have been relaxed, and recording magic tools and other new technologies are appearing. So, theres a possibility that these fields will develop further in the future, and maybe something akin to the internet could eventually be created, but thats still a long way off.
[Ah, you can choose which movie we watch, Kaori-san.]
[Thanks! Wow, Im excited! What should I watch? I could go for the latest release I wanted to see, or an old favorite its hard to decide! Kaito-kun, do you have a favorite movie?]
[My favorite works are mostly older ones. I guess the ones I watched as a child left the biggest impression for example]
[Ah, those are classics for sure. They were often shown on TV I remember them pretty well too. And then theres]
While talking about our favorite movies with Kaori-san, we moved along to buy snacks in a cheerful mood. It was a spontaneous suggestion, but seeing her so happy made it completely worth inviting her.
Serious-senpai : [So, its the start of a movie date?]
? ? ? : [Oui.]
Serious-senpai : [U- Uwaahh]
