�It happened.�I�m sorry I couldn�t stay by your side.�If I had���

�That�s all right.�What I want to know is the Maika Ruins.�If the continent had sunk, there�s no way it wouldn�t have been confirmed by you roaming the world�s oceans, right?�

Kaios opened his mouth heavily.

�To begin with, the Myka civilization is presumed to have existed.�

�calculation?�

�yes.�First of all, the ability of the Pirates that Messiah is curious about is probably the influence of Oparts.�A timeless relic, the name is quite accurate.�The chronology of the super-ancient civilizations I researched���

Kaios� expression became serious.

�It is at least 2 billion years old.�In other words, it was an era when even the dragon race did not exist.�

Sirone blinked after checking Omega�s records.

�But why can�t I remember?�No, the fact that Oparts existed before that means Mika actually existed, right?�

�That�s the problem.�The accepted theory is that it sank in the South Pacific Ocean, but over time, the remains have been scattered all over the sea.�There are over 70 of them just from what I�ve checked.�However, the historic sites have common characteristics.�

�What about the characteristics?�

�There is no sign that humans or creatures have ever lived there.�

Silence passed.

�What are you talking about?�Opartz said, �Yes, it is an artificial product.�Things with skills such as space jumps and magnetic field shields can�t arise spontaneously.�Traces of civilization remain even in the ruins.�But no one was there.�

�It�s a really strange thing.�Creating something is possible only when there is a subject.�But Mika is the opposite.�There are civilizations, grounds, and tools, but there is no subject.�

�It is outside of causality���

Suddenly, the fish living in the aquarium came to mind.

�A fish just swims in its own world.�But if a human drops a ring in an aquarium���

Wouldn�t the ring be regarded as an artificial artifact without a subject to the fish?

�Then, even if the fish has the omega of the aquarium, you can�t know the ring.�

Kaios continued.

�The reason I lost interest in ultra-ancient civilizations is that in the end everything was what it looked like.�Because there was no subject who enjoyed civilization, it was impossible to exercise any imagination.�

�What about oparts?�

�It�s hard to say anything about that.�It must be a tool with obvious uses, but I couldn�t figure out how to use it.�In a word, I can�t even get a sense of what it�s used for.�

Poine intervened.

�If the universe is the limit for the intelligence of living things, I think that concepts that do not exist in the universe should be incorporated.�All 12 apostles tried, but ultimately failed.�

Sirone turned to Jakra.

�But did you use it?�No, how were you so sure that space jumps were the function of the Oparts before that?�

�It�s electricity.� JrNovels.com
