TN : t.i.tle can also be "Master Ring" from the previous chapter. So I will start using "Star Guardian Ring" now than "Master Ring" because it sounds better.

It is a kind of gla.s.s that I picked up in my college days. 

I thought it was a part of a cheap chandelier, so my friends made a design based on it and made it a pendant. 

Somehow I had learned that an goat alien came to earth looking for it. 

Although it was okay to give it to him if it's necessary, he says he will give me one from one of those he showed me as compensation.

So, why is it became a planetary weapon or a missile?

"Somehow, I need explanation about fifth civilization or something like that, is it okay?"

"It is roughly divided into technical level, Level at which interstellar movement is impossible is called zero civilization. After that, If it can use the phase route it will be about third civilization. This phase route is in order, so since the concept of distance can be ignored, Interstellar movement becomes possible without taking a huge amount of time"

So it seems the number rose up as corresponds to the advancement of a civilization.

In the present explanation, is Earth feels like a zero-civilization?

"It is a fifth civilization if it can use the Transposition Gate[Cla.s.sical Gate]"

Because it seems like an imagination, I won't ask any more.

It seems to be a cheat from the following list.

If I use any of them on earth it will end on your next visit, It about that level of risk, but there was one thing that catches my eye.

"What is the Star Guardian Ring?"

"It is a ring that can acc.u.mulate the surplus energy of the star drips. It will continue to acc.u.mulate energy while it is in that star, And the owner can use the energy on the ring."

"Sounds awful, isn't it?"

"Because you can not use energy if you leave the star, you will have to be in the star if you want to use it, "

Hm.

In other words, why do you want to use it while you are in that star?

"For example, if I use the ring on earth, I can be a G.o.d of this star?"

"That will be so, but since the ring I already have is already linked, the ring that I can give you will have a planet included."

"Is that so ... ... It ashamed ... ... wait! what?"

What did you say?

"A planet ...... is included? In that ring ...? "

"If you want create a Star Guardian Ring of this star, bring a nucleus to the center of the star and collect power for a hundreds of years, so it is impossible right now."

Sorry goat merchant (It seem I am already fine calling you that).

"No no no, I do not care about that. More importantly, I am attracted to the planet include on that ring. What kind of stars is it?"

"It is a lush green star, since it's Star Guardian Ring was created early on, the surplus energy of the star never overflowed and seems to have developed a natural disasters. Although there is no intellectual life on that star, it is not dangerous. It may be not lacking in ways of fun."

It looks interesting.

No, it is absolutely funny.

But I wonder what is it like to be gone?

It is too lonely to live alone on the other side.

"For example, can I go back and forth between earth and that star?"

"In that case, let's set up a dislocation gate here, if it's between two directions you can go back and forth."

My feeling has already settled

"Then I will take that"

"Thank you so much. If so, you should go there right now, In the meantime I will arrange for the preparation here"

The goat merchant took out a small case from the empty s.p.a.ce.

It sounds like magic.

"This is the ring, since the owner is blank, it will automatically recognized Minoru if you wear it. For now the star is sealed by this ring, but will be automatically remove after you wear it, so you can go right away. "

I wear the Star Guarding Ring.

"Now chant [Return]"

I chanted

"[Return]"

Then return to the beginning.

I was standing in the middle of the meadow.
